Vorceed Enlist technology is expected to be available in products across all Corteva seed brands, including Pioneer, Brevant seeds, AgVenture, Dairyland Seed, Hoegemeyer, NuTech and Seed Consultants
Corteva Agriscience has unveiled its next generation of corn rootworm (CRW) trait technology. Vorceed Enlist corn will help enable farmers to manage CRW acres with more options than any other seed corn product.
Farmers gain flexibility in managing CRW pressure with three modes of action for above-ground insect protection, three modes of action for below-ground insect protection and tolerance to four herbicide modes of action to help better manage resistant weeds. Vorceed Enlist technology is expected to be available in products across all Corteva seed brands, including Pioneer, Brevant seeds, AgVenture, Dairyland Seed, Hoegemeyer, NuTech and Seed Consultants.
Corteva is finalising its commercial plans for Vorceed Enlist products for the US and Canada.
“Vorceed Enlist corn will build on the enhanced yield potential and superior agronomics of our Qrome products,” said Judd O’Connor, President, US Commercial Business, Corteva Agriscience. “For farmers looking for the most flexibility in meeting their business goals, Vorceed Enlist corn raises the bar in three key areas: maximised yield potential, exceptional CRW protection and more flexible weed management, leveraging our most advanced weed control technology.”
“The trusted genetics responsible for the high yield potential of Qrome products will be brought forward in Vorceed Enlist corn,” O’Connor said.
Vorceed Enlist corn will add a new RNAi mode of action to proven Bt traits for a total of six modes of action to protect against above- and below-ground pests.
Vorceed Enlist corn also will provide the benefits of the Enlist weed control system, including exceptional flexibility with tolerances to four herbicide modes of action: 2,4-D choline, glyphosate, glufosinate and FOP herbicides.
