FMC 公司和 Chr。科汉森 (Hansen) 宣布将他们的合作延长五年，以开发和商业化针对农业的天然解决方案。
该合作在过去五年中推出了多种天然产品，使 Chr.科汉森和 FMC 联合资源和专业知识，加速进入快速增长的生物作物保护市场。新延长的协议继续利用两家公司的资源和专业知识，同时提供更大的灵活性。
在过去的五年中，总部位于丹麦的 Chr。科汉森和总部位于宾夕法尼亚州费城的 FMC 在作物保护方面建立了独家合作关系。虽然共同开发管道将继续保持排他性，但如果需要，两家公司将能够与其他合作伙伴建立开发和商业关系。
“Chr. Hansen and FMC have enjoyed a successful relationship, including the launch of new products that provide natural alternatives for farmers to significantly boost crop yield,” said Christian Barker, Chr. Hansen executive vice president, Health & Nutrition. “Now, with our continued collaboration confirmed, we look forward to launching our strong pipeline of new products together in the years ahead. Beyond that pipeline, the new agreement provides full flexibility for both parties which will enable Chr. Hansen to further leverage our distinctive microbial capabilities by also collaborating with additional partners.”
Marc Hullebroeck, president, FMC Europe, Middle East and Africa, added: “We are pleased to extend our relationship for at least another five years as we continue to collaborate on commercializing technologies that have been jointly developed, which includes products such as Quartzo nematicide and Presence nematicide in Brazil. In addition, FMC will continue its own efforts on discovery, development and commercialization of new innovative technologies at our state-of-the-art laboratory facilities at FMC’s European Innovation Center near Copenhagen, Denmark. Our priority is to focus on differentiated solutions for growers throughout the world.”
