About us
Agro-Shelef Ltd. Was established in 2011 in the Negev (Israeli Desert) in order to face the difficulties in the Negev, high temperature and low humidity means a lot of pest and diseases, so we started to look for solutions that not only safe to use and effective, but also that will work in extreme temperature, and will be safe to the plant.
Our first and leading product "TAMAR-TECH" The prototype development started in 2008 in “Shelef Agricultural Laboratory”.
The R&D processes included emulsification of different vegetable oils, sprays it on infected plants and learn about the activity of every oil separately and combined with other oils, knowing that every plant holds active ingredients for self-protection that is used by us for pest-control utilities. After a long process of research and development, we are proud to say that we have succeeded to evolve a non-poisonous, sustainable and effective product that has a very wide range of activity and No less important - cost effective for the grower.
TAMAR-TECH is based on fresh emulsion that preserves all the beneficial ingredients of the vegetable oils and at the same time prevents phyto-toxic incidents to the treated plants.
TAMAR-TECH's pest-control abilities are equal and even better than conventional harmful pesticides
As a result, Tamar-Tech sold over 220,000 liters in Israel alone since 2011.
