Liderando la ronda es <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fgcvc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fulcro Global Capital<\/a>, un destacado capital de riesgo estadounidense centrado en la agricultura con v\u00ednculos con una amplia red de agricultores en todo Estados Unidos. La inyecci\u00f3n de nuevo capital impulsar\u00e1 la misi\u00f3n de la empresa de combatir la resistencia de las malas hierbas a trav\u00e9s de su innovadora soluci\u00f3n ecol\u00f3gica.<\/p>\n<p>Otros participantes en la ronda de capital incluyen Bunge Ventures, el brazo de inversi\u00f3n de la empresa l\u00edder en agricultura y alimentos Bunge, y el fondo de tecnolog\u00eda agroalimentaria con sede en Singapur Clay Capital (anteriormente VisVires New Protein, VVNP). La nueva financiaci\u00f3n se suma a varias subvenciones recibidas por la empresa de la Autoridad de Innovaci\u00f3n de Israel.<\/p>\n<p>La soluci\u00f3n de WeedOUT podr\u00eda resolver una de las mayores amenazas a la agricultura y la seguridad alimentaria: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weedout-ibs.com\/our-solution\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">malezas resistentes a herbicidas<\/a>. La empresa cre\u00f3 un enfoque novedoso y respetuoso con el medio ambiente para frenar significativamente la proliferaci\u00f3n de malezas que ya no responden a los herbicidas qu\u00edmicos de uso com\u00fan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLas malas hierbas resistentes que plagan los cultivos son un gran desaf\u00edo para los agricultores de todo el mundo, y la situaci\u00f3n no ha hecho m\u00e1s que empeorar\u201d, afirma Kevin Lockett, socio de Fulcrum Global Capital. \u201cFulcrum Global se complace en apoyar la plataforma biol\u00f3gica de vanguardia de WeedOUT y el enfoque \u00fanico que ha sido pionero para abordar el problema de las malezas resistentes. El enfoque de gesti\u00f3n integrada de la empresa se alinea perfectamente con las pr\u00e1cticas agr\u00edcolas existentes y podr\u00eda permitir a los productores de todo el mundo producir m\u00e1s alimentos en la misma cantidad de tierra y de una manera mucho m\u00e1s sostenible\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2>El primer objetivo de WeedOUT<\/h2>\n<p>&quot;Las malas hierbas son plantas agresivas y muy competitivas&quot;, explica Efrat Lidor Nili, PhD, cofundador y codirector ejecutivo de WeedOUT. \u201cCompiten con los cultivos por todos los recursos esenciales, incluidos el suelo, el agua, los nutrientes e incluso la luz solar. Las malas hierbas reducen sustancialmente el rendimiento de los cultivos\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>El primer objetivo de la empresa es la maleza de amaranto Palmer (<em>Amaranthus<\/em> <em>palmeri<\/em>), una gran molestia en Estados Unidos, Brasil y Argentina. La maleza puede crecer hasta varios metros de altura e invadir campos de ma\u00edz, algod\u00f3n, soja y remolacha azucarera. Puede reducir el rendimiento de los cultivos de ma\u00edz en 90% y el rendimiento de la soja en 80%. &quot;Nuestra soluci\u00f3n ecol\u00f3gica se dirige espec\u00edficamente a este tipo de maleza resistente&quot;, se\u00f1ala Lidor Nili.<\/p>\n<p>El uso prolongado de herbicidas qu\u00edmicos, como el glifosato, ha permitido que las malas hierbas destructivas desarrollen m\u00faltiples resistencias. Apodadas \u201csupermalezas\u201d, el m\u00e9todo tradicional para combatirlas han sido los herbicidas qu\u00edmicos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLa evoluci\u00f3n siempre es m\u00e1s inteligente\u201d, a\u00f1ade Lidor Nili. \u201cLas malas hierbas aprenden formas de evadir los efectos de los herbicidas. Pero WeedOUT est\u00e1 aplicando un enfoque ecol\u00f3gico completamente nuevo que se dirige al sistema reproductivo de las malezas resistentes y proporcionar\u00e1 una soluci\u00f3n sostenible a largo plazo\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2>Enfoque novedoso<\/h2>\n<p>El novedoso m\u00e9todo de WeedOUT se inspira en t\u00e9cnicas de esterilidad utilizadas con \u00e9xito desde la d\u00e9cada de 1940 para controlar poblaciones de insectos no deseados, como mosquitos y moscas. Se centra en un polen de malezas patentado derivado de las plantas masculinas. Este polen est\u00e9ril fertiliza los \u00f3vulos femeninos de las malezas, produciendo semillas no viables e impidiendo efectivamente el crecimiento de una nueva generaci\u00f3n de malezas resistentes.<\/p>\n<p>Desde la introducci\u00f3n de la t\u00e9cnica de esterilidad hace 80 a\u00f1os, el \u00e1mbito del control de insectos no ha encontrado ning\u00fan problema de resistencia y se considera uno de los m\u00e9todos m\u00e1s seguros jam\u00e1s desarrollados. WeedOUT es el primero en aplicar este m\u00e9todo probado para el control de malezas.<\/p>\n<p>Los fundadores de WeedOUT llevaron a cabo los experimentos iniciales en los balcones de sus propias casas con un \u00e9xito instant\u00e1neo. Armados con pruebas de concepto convincentes y fondos iniciales cruciales, procedieron a realizar pruebas de campo locales antes de intensificar sus esfuerzos en pruebas m\u00e1s extensas en todo Estados Unidos que cubran campos de algod\u00f3n, soja y remolacha azucarera. Estos ensayos se est\u00e1n llevando a cabo en conjunto con l\u00edderes de opini\u00f3n clave en el control de malezas.<\/p>\n<p>Los fondos recaudados en esta ronda de inversi\u00f3n se est\u00e1n canalizando para ampliar a\u00fan m\u00e1s las pruebas de campo en m\u00faltiples regiones de EE. UU., incluidas Georgia y Nebraska, a medida que WeedOUT avanza hacia el lanzamiento de su producto inaugural dirigido a la hierba de amaranto Palmer. La empresa present\u00f3 recientemente una solicitud a la Agencia de Protecci\u00f3n Ambiental para obtener aprobaci\u00f3n de comercializaci\u00f3n y est\u00e1 desarrollando nuevas formulaciones dirigidas a diferentes especies de malezas.<\/p>\n<h2>Una nueva era fruct\u00edfera<\/h2>\n<p>&quot;WeedOUT se dirige eficazmente al complejo sistema reproductivo innato de la planta, no solo a una v\u00eda enzim\u00e1tica&quot;, describe Orly Noivirt-Brik, PhD, cofundador y codirector ejecutivo de WeedOUT. \u201cEste enfoque hace que sea casi imposible que las malezas desarrollen resistencia. Como las malas hierbas se tratan con polen, nuestro m\u00e9todo est\u00e1 dise\u00f1ado para funcionar en armon\u00eda con el ecosistema y evitar amenazas a los cultivos alimentarios\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>La soluci\u00f3n WeedOUT marca una nueva era para los agricultores. &quot;Al permitirles integrar nuestro enfoque biol\u00f3gico con los m\u00e9todos tradicionales, estamos redefiniendo las estrategias de manejo de malezas&quot;, enfatiza Noivirt-Brik. \u201cNuestros productos mejorar\u00e1n dr\u00e1sticamente el rendimiento de los cultivos y, al mismo tiempo, minimizar\u00e1n la dependencia de herbicidas qu\u00edmicos. Prevemos que nuestra tecnolog\u00eda se adopte ampliamente para m\u00faltiples cultivos y sirva como una soluci\u00f3n clave en la batalla contra las malezas resistentes. WeedOUT har\u00e1 una contribuci\u00f3n vital y significativa a las pr\u00e1cticas agr\u00edcolas y la seguridad alimentaria en todo el mundo\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El primer objetivo de la empresa es el amaranto Palmer, una gran molestia en Estados Unidos, Brasil y Argentina.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":110,"featured_media":75399,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1786,22,19,489],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75398","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-biologicals","category-biopesticides","category-herbicides","category-industry-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
