Nabat was established in 1983 an agricultural company in fertilizers, plant protection seeds, irrigation equipment, and metallic structure to the agricultural sector in Lebanon supported by a group of agricultural engineers (crop advisory team) whose main responsibility is to assist farmers in managing there farms to get optimum results.
In 1990 Nabat co. expand its services as a landscape developer inside Lebanon. The increased awareness of the risks that industrial agriculture has been posing to the environment and human health, led to a radical change in the human life stile.
Conventional agrochemicals have been used for many years, negative side effects due to their application on cultivated crops emerged, and therefore several active substances were withdrawn from the market, while others were subjected to restrictions for use and long pre-harvest intervals (the time between the last pesticides application and harvest of the treated crop). Furthermore, due to new information and data, maximum residue levels of many active substances were reduced.
Nabat has concentrated its effort on the registration of Bio specialities, officially approved for the use in organic agriculture over the years of these products in integrated pest, management strategies has increased continuously, and their use is not limited any more to the niche market of organic farming, these products, instead, are now supporting so-called 'conventional' operators (growers, farm advisers, food producers and processors).
The registration of numerous microbial antagonists (viruses, fungi bacteria etc..) enabled NABAT to position itself as an IPM pioneer onto the Lebanese and middle east market which offers ' the biological contribution to integrated agriculture.
