Monsanto y Valent amplían su asociación en las soluciones de gestión de cultivos Roundup Ready PLUS

Monsanto Co. y Valent USA LLC, una subsidiaria de propiedad total de Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd., han anunciado hoy una asociación ampliada en la plataforma de soluciones de gestión de cultivos Roundup Ready PLUS 2018.

Several key changes provide soybean, corn and cotton growers with the most effective solutions to be more productive. Valent will offer Valor and Fierce brands as the exclusive preemergence PPO residual herbicides in the program. In addition, new products will be added to the program, including solutions for control of tough weeds, such as new Mauler Herbicide and a line extension of the longest lasting residual, Fierce, with Fierce MTZ Co-Pack. Valor SX Herbicide will again be part of the program for 2018. Rowel Herbicide and Rowel FX Herbicide will be phased out to streamline product offerings. Valent’s line of postemergence herbicides, including Cobra and Select Max Herbicide with Inside Technology, will remain in the program.

Además, los productores tendrán acceso a las últimas soluciones de insecticidas de Valent en el programa 2018. El insecticida Asana XL, líder de la industria para el control de insectos foliares de amplio espectro, y Zeal SC, un acaricida residual probado, se ofrecerán en el programa de 2018. Valent y Monsanto se complacen en ofrecer una gama más amplia de soluciones insecticidas que ayudarán a los productores a maximizar los rendimientos y proteger sus acres durante la temporada de crecimiento.

“We’re very excited about our partnership with Valent,” said Scott Burchette, Monsanto North America Crop Protection Systems Lead. “The goal of Roundup Ready PLUS Crop Management Solutions is all about partnering with industry leading suppliers to deliver simple and effective options to combat herbicide-resistant weeds. Together with Valent, we are creating even more value through expanding product offerings while creating a better experience for retailers and growers alike.”

“Valent looks forward to expanding our collaboration with Monsanto and Roundup Ready PLUS for the 2018 growing season and beyond,” said Trey Soud, director of row crops for Valent U.S.A. LLC. “Growers trust the Fierce and Valor brands to protect their fields against a broad spectrum of weeds, and with the addition of Zeal SC and Asana XL, we are able to uphold our commitment to creating long-term value for growers through integrated agrosolutions.”
