FMC Corporation y Monsanto Company continuarán su participación en Roundup Ready PLUS Crop Management Solutions platform. The agreement includes FMC’s Authority brand sulfentrazone herbicides, and adds FMC’s Capture LFR insecticide as a soil-applied insecticide for corn in the Monsanto recommendation platform as a qualifying brand.
Cuando se lance, Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans será el primer rasgo de soja apilado por biotecnología con tolerancia a la dicamba y al glifosato. El rasgo patentado Roundup Ready 2 Xtend se basa en el rendimiento de alto rendimiento Genuity Roundup Ready 2 soybean trait technology. FMC’s Authority herbicide brands provide broad-spectrum control of weeds on a wide range of soil types, geographies and weed conditions. The Authority herbicide brand platform utilizes several premixes to provide pre-emergence weed control included within Roundup Ready PLUS Crop Management Solutions.
“Authority brand herbicides provide high-yield confidence to growers through superior, season-long weed control,” said Marc Hullebroeck, vice president, North America Crop and Innovation, FMC Agricultural Solutions. “When Roundup Ready 2 Xtend Soybeans are launched, this system, along with post applications of Roundup Xtend or Xtendimax herbicides, pending regulatory approvals, within the new Roundup Ready Xtend Crop System, will also help growers manage resistant weed situations by combining multiple modes of action.”
Monsanto anticipa que la nueva tecnología de rasgos Roundup Ready 2 Xtend estará disponible para los productores de soja en 2016.
