In an agreement with Valent Canada, Nufarm Agriculture will become a distributor for Valent’s agricultural, horticultural, industrial vegetative management (IVM) and biorational product lines in Canada.
Under the agreement, Australia-headquartered Nufarm will distribute the following Valent products to Canadian farmers:
• Valtera, Chateau, SureGuard, BroadStar and Payload Herbicides
• Arena 50 WDG, Clutch 50 WDG Insecticides and DiPel 2X DF, DiPel WP, Foray 48BA and VectoBac 600L Biological Insecticides
• ReTain, MaxCel, Promalin, Fascination and ProGibb Plant Growth Regulators
• Presidio Fungicide
This development deepens the Valent-Nufarm partnership, which started in 2011 with Nufarm selling the well-known Valtera to Canadian growers looking for a solution to tough weeds.
“Valent and Nufarm embarked on a successful sales alliance with Valtera last year. The success of that relationship has resulted in the expansion of our strategic alliance,” said Todd Younghans, country manager for Valent Canada in a statement.
Engage Agro will continue to sell Velocity Herbicide. Plant Products will continue to sell Sumagic and Distance Plant Growth Regulators.
