The World Day for Safety and Health at Work
World Safety and Health at Work Day is celebrated on April 28th every year to promote safe, healthy, and decent work worldwide. The day highlights the importance of ensuring the safety and health of workers and their workplaces, raising awareness of preventable occupational accidents and diseases that occur globally.
The celebration of this day is essential because ensuring safety and health at work is crucial to the well-being and productivity of workers, their families, and their communities. Unsafe work environments can lead to injuries, illnesses, and even death, causing physical, emotional, and financial harm to workers and their loved ones. Therefore, the day serves as a reminder to employers, workers, and governments to prevent workplace accidents and illnesses and promote healthy work environments.
By promoting safety and health at work, we can create a more sustainable and productive world that benefits not only workers but also businesses and society.

New Video Testimonial – Jake Rothert – Florida, US
We recently met Jake Rothert from Rothert Farms in Florida. He is an example of a customer that uses biorational products (organics/biologics).
This type of product is expensive and has lower toxicity, so you need a much higher dose transfer for the kill, which he has improved with MagrowTec. He is also using less conventional chemistry and reduced the spray events.
We have more and more growers using these products, especially as some conventional are getting banned.
So whether you use a tractor boom, greenhouse, backpack, air blast sprayer etc., or Bayer, BASF, Syngenta product, or Insecticide, Fungicide or Herbicide or use a John Deere, CASENH or AGCO etc or conventional chemistry, biologic, bio-stimulant or organic products, MagrowTec makes better solutions or solutions better.
