Complete citrus growing solutions from Vegalab.

Optimize your citrus program the natural way - with products that deliver powerful results and zero compromise on pre-harvest interval or worker safety.

Simple protocols, natural products, measurable results.

Vegalab's citrus program is built around our nano-encapsulation platform · the same Swiss-engineered technology that makes our actives more stable, more soluble and more precisely delivered to the site of action in soil and on leaf tissue.

All Vegalab products carry zero pre-harvest interval and zero reentry period, so your team can work safely without sacrificing field efficiency. From soil microbiome inoculation at planting through fruit fill and post-harvest protection, our protocols cover the full season.

Whether you're managing root disease pressure, fighting late-season mildew or looking to boost Brix and fruit quality, our agronomists will design a program around your variety, region and target market.

Products for citrus.

Nematode Control
Insecticide · Nematicide
Nematode Control

Geraniol-based nano-encapsulated nematicide with over 90% efficacy. Improves root health and reduces egg hatching in citrus root zones.

Mildew Control
Fungicide
Mildew Control

Controls powdery and downy mildew on citrus foliage and fruit. Essential oil-based, with zero reentry restrictions.

Spider Mite Control
Insecticide
Spider Mite Control

Plant extract-based insecticide targeting spider mite populations on citrus. Nano-encapsulated for superior coverage and residual activity.

Spore Control
Fungicide
Spore Control

Essential oil fungicide that suppresses fungal spore germination - controls blight, rust, botrytis and bunch rot on citrus.

Charge Bioboost
Soil Inoculant
Charge Bioboost

Beneficial bacteria and fungi formulation that builds soil microbiome health in citrus orchards, improving nutrient uptake and root resilience.

Brix Boost
Fertilizer · Quality
Brix Boost 0-13-5

Crop quality enhancer that elevates juice Brix in citrus, supporting sugar development, fruit fill and post-harvest shelf appeal.

Micro Boost
Chelated micronutrient fertilizer
Micro Boost

A chelated micronutrient blend delivering iron, manganese, zinc, copper, boron and molybdenum together. Foliar or soil application - 1–5 times per season. 1:1,000 · 1 mL/L (3.8 mL/gal) · 0.75–2.0 L/ha (10.4–27.7 fl oz/acre).

NPK Pro
All-purpose water-soluble fertilizer
NPK Pro

A complete water-soluble fertilizer with NPK and six chelated micronutrients. Foliar or soil drench, 2–3 times throughout growth. 1:1,000–1:200 · 1–5 mL/L (3.8–18.9 mL/gal) · 1.25–2.5 L/ha (17.3–33.3 fl oz/acre).

Vega Pro
Early-season general-purpose fertilizer
Vega Pro

A general-purpose NPK fertilizer engineered for early-season application. Foliar or soil drench from rooting through early veg. 1:1,000–1:600 · 1–1.67 mL/L (3.8–6.3 mL/gal) · 0.75–2.0 L/ha (10.4–27.7 fl oz/acre).

Common pests & issues in citrus.

Nano-encapsulated natural actives matched to the specific pressures citrus growers face every season.

Parasitic Nematodes

Root-knot and citrus nematodes cause stunting, chlorosis and significant yield loss. Early-season soil application is key to reducing population pressure.

Nematode Control →

Powdery & Downy Mildew

Favored by humid canopy conditions and temperature swings common in citrus-growing regions. Mildew can reduce photosynthesis and compromise fruit set.

Mildew Control →

Spider Mites

Two-spotted and citrus red mites extract cell contents from leaves, causing stippling, leaf drop and reduced fruit quality under dry, hot conditions.

Spider Mite Control →

Fungal Spores · Blight, Rust & Botrytis

Fungal pressure builds through post-bloom and wet seasons. Botrytis and bunch rot can devastate fruit at harvest if not managed at the spore level.

Spore Control →

Soil Microbiome Depletion

Continuous monoculture and conventional inputs deplete beneficial soil biology, reducing the orchard's natural resilience to drought and pathogen pressure.

Charge Bioboost →

Heat, Drought & Stress Events

Kelp and potassium silica inputs help citrus trees endure temperature extremes and water stress while maintaining canopy integrity and fruit development.

Armour Boost →
