More yields, bigger harvests.”
This had been the unchallenged truth of agriculture for too long. Productivity came first, often at the expense of safety, sustainability, and transparency. Harmful chemicals quietly became the norm, and few raised any questions.
Today, the old way of farming no longer suffices. It is time to break free from the status quo and embrace bold, new approaches. That is how modern technologies come to fruition, enabling healthier food production through environmentally responsible and sustainable practices.
ExcelAg is leading this transformation, driving a shift toward smarter, safer agriculture.
It delivers real-world breakthroughs that matter thanks to its four core pillars:
1. Innovation
2. Technology
3. Healthy Food
4. Sustainability
ExcelAg offers eco-friendly agricultural solutions focused on organic, sustainable products that boost productivity and enhance both crop and user safety. Above all, its work is grounded in safe practices that support long-term agricultural success and protect the environment for future generations.
“Our approach begins with a deep understanding of the needs of growers, consumers, and the industry. From there, we design solutions that address today's agricultural challenges, from food safety to sustainability, all while minimizing the chemical footprint,” says Jorge E. Cepeda, President and CEO.
One standout innovation from ExcelAg is Ovex, a newly launched organic insecticide. It is the first organic, certified, non-synthetic product that effectively controls pest eggs while being applied at low rates to reduce the chemical load in the field. Compatible with synthetic insecticides, Ovex can be used in combination to minimize the overall volume of chemicals. Soon, the product will be launched in the U.S. and in international markets.
Another upcoming breakthrough is an organic plant hormone that promotes fruit ripening, an alternative to the synthetic chemicals commonly used today. It achieves the same result with enhanced safety, cost-effectiveness, and lower doses. The goal is not to charge a premium for being organic but to make the product widely accessible, benefiting as many growers as possible while maintaining a viable business.

ExcelAg’s pipeline is always filled with new solutions, demonstrating its focus on long-term stability through continuous improvement and product innovation. The company goes the extra mile to develop second-, third-, and even fourth-generation products to prevent resistance and ensure lasting effectiveness.
While agriculture remains the primary focus, ExcelAg has diversified into multiple business lines for greater stability and broader positive impact. In the public health sector, it offers organic pest control products designed for residential areas, hospitals, ports, and other public spaces. For the home and garden market, the company provides safe, easy-to-use solutions that allow homeowners to grow their own produce without the need for professional equipment.
These products also protect livestock such as horses and cows from pests without causing irritation or toxicity. Building on this expertise, ExcelAg is expanding into pet care, developing pest control solutions for household pets like dogs and cats. The company is also adapting its technologies to create eco-friendly disinfectants and sanitizers.
Across all these divisions, sustainability remains the core principle. Through its triple-rinse program for packaging, ExcelAg minimizes waste, reuses materials when possible, and promotes proper recycling. These practices save energy and water while supporting sustainable transport and manufacturing.
Ultimately, the company’s philosophy blends business success with environmental responsibility. Through renewable energy, nutritious production, and consumer education, ExcelAg aims to protect human health, animal welfare, and the planet.
ExcelAg today leaves behind the past of harmful chemicals and irresponsible practices, embracing a future rooted in ecological balance, safety, and transparency from the ground up.
