About us
Vestaron Crop Protection is an ag technology company dedicated to providing our customers with the powerful solutions they need to meet the growing challenges of modern agriculture. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Durham, NC (USA), we are producing a pipeline of powerful insecticides with new modes of action based on peptides modified from the venom of spiders and other venomous animals. Naturally soft on pollinators, beneficials, and local biodiversity, our innovations have earned recognition from the Crop Science Awards and the EPA’s Green Chemistry Challenge. In 2024, we became the first agriculture and food company inducted into the Global CleanTech 100 Hall of Fame. Our first product, SPEAR® LEP, is proven on more than 650,000+ acres and continues to gain market share in North America. Recently, SPEAR LEP has been approved for Emergency Use Authorization in several EU countries as a desperately needed solution to help farmers combat the destructive impact of tomato leafminer (Tuta absoluta) infestations which cause substantial yield and economic losses for farmers across the Mediterranean region of Europe. In 2024 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved our second novel-acting insecticide, BASIN®. Vestaron Crop Protection: Unconventional, by nature.

Thank you to the growers, advisors, and farm teams who have helped us get SPEAR® LEP into the IPM programs of growers across the globe. Our continued growth would not be possible without the progressive partners who have discovered the powerful and unique benefits of our spider-venom-derived bioinsecticide. Hard on pests, soft on pollinators and beneficials.
