Ambriva® herbicide has been rigorously tested on wheat over multiple seasons in India and has demonstrated significant and consistent performance against Phalaris minor and key grass weeds.

FMC, a leading global agricultural sciences company, announced the launch of Ambriva® herbicide for use in wheat during the upcoming growing season at a customer event in Chandigarh, India.

Ambriva® herbicide features Isoflex® active, a group 13 herbicide, which is a novel mode of action in cereal crops and provides Indian farmers with a new tool for resistance management. Studies have shown that Ambriva® herbicide, formulated with both Isoflex® active and Metribuzin, demonstrates early post-emergence knock-down activity and residual control against Phalaris minor, also known as ‘Gulli danda’ or ‘Mandoosi’, protecting wheat during the critical crop-weed competition period.

 “Wheat farmers in Punjab, Haryana and parts of Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan face significant challenges from Phalaris minor,” said Ravi Annavarapu, FMC India, and South-West Asia President. “Over the past few decades, this destructive weed has developed resistance to multiple herbicide chemistries, which has impacted crop yields, leaving farmers with limited options. FMC’s introduction of Ambriva® herbicide brings Indian farmers an innovative solution to address resistance challenges.”

“We believe this new herbicide will provide farmers with a much-needed powerful solution, offering long-lasting weed control and enhanced productivity,” said Annavarapu. 

FMC is committed to serving farmers by providing them with new solutions that help them protect their crops and optimize yields. The introduction of Ambriva® herbicide demonstrates FMC’s strong research and development capabilities to address grower challenges through cutting-edge sustainable technologies that enhance crop resilience and productivity.

Velzo® fungicide, Vayobel® herbicide and Ambriva® herbicide will help fruits & vegetables, paddy and wheat farmers tackle challenging diseases and weeds.

FMC Corporation, a leading agricultural sciences company, announced the launch of three cutting-edge crop protection solutions in India today. The new herbicides and fungicide complement FMC’s current robust portfolio of insecticides and reaffirms the company’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of Indian farmers with science and innovation-driven crop solutions.

Ronaldo Pereira, President of the FMC Corporation, Pramod Thota, President of the FMC Asia Pacific region and Ravi Annavarapu, President of FMC India, were present at a launch event for Velzo® fungicide, Vayobel® herbicide and Ambriva® herbicide, and to celebrate this significant milestone in FMC’s journey in India. The activities included field visits where the team interacted with farmers and a ceremony in Hyderabad where FMC’s top channel partners in India were honoured by the company’s senior leaders for their resolute commitment to work together for the introduction of innovative products and new services.

Velzo® fungicide, a specialty fungicide designed to combat Oomycete diseases in grapes, tomatoes, and potatoes, will help grapes farmers in Maharashtra and Karnataka address the challenge of Downy mildew. Additionally, it will help control Late blight for potato and tomato farmers across the country. Vayobel® herbicide, a pre-emergent and broad-spectrum weed control solution for transplanted rice farmers nationwide, will help to establish a robust crop foundation. Lastly, Ambriva® herbicide, powered by Isoflex® active, features a novel mode of action to tackle the issue of resistant Phalaris minor weeds, giving wheat farmers in the Indo-Gangetic plains a new tool for resistance management.

“Technology forms the backbone of agricultural growth, and FMC’s focus remains on investing in innovative, science-based solutions that not only enhance crop productivity and resilience but also support sustainable farming practices,” said Ravi Annavarapu, President of FMC India. “Providing Indian farmers with these latest advancements in crop care emphasizes our commitment to empowering them with solutions tailored to their regional needs. We look forward to launching additional innovative products in the near future.”

India is a top market for FMC globally. Powered by its strong research and development pipeline, the introduction of Velzo® fungicide, Vayobel® herbicide and Ambriva® herbicide is a testimony to FMC’s commitment to delivering innovation excellence to address the evolving challenges faced by Indian growers. By supporting farmers with sustainable technologies, FMC is contributing to a safe, secure, and sustainable food supply, with minimal impact on the planet.

Company has received registration for Isoflex® active in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China and Great Britain.

FMC, a leading global agricultural sciences company, has received registration in India for Isoflex® active and Ambriva® herbicide for use in wheat. Ambriva® herbicide, powered by Isoflex® active, presents a novel mode of action in wheat. Isoflex® active is classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) as a group 13 herbicide.

“At FMC, we’re committed to serving farmers with innovative crop solutions that help them protect their crops and optimize yields,” said Ravi Annavarapu, FMC India, and South-West Asia President. “In the last few years, we have rigorously tested Ambriva® herbicide in wheat over multiple seasons, observing consistent performance against Phalaris minor. We believe that Ambriva® herbicide will contribute to a healthy crop by providing growers with a new and effective tool to control Phalaris minor, which has become resistant to other herbicides.”  

Ambriva® herbicide powered by Isoflex® active and metribuzin will support wheat farmers, especially in the northwestern regions of the Indo-Gangetic plains, where Phalaris minor poses a significant challenge to crop yield potential. Studies have shown that Ambriva® herbicide demonstrates residual control against Phalaris minor and early post-emergence knock-down activity, protecting wheat during the critical crop-weed competition period as a one-shot solution.

The registration and imminent introduction of Ambriva® herbicide in India marks a critical milestone for FMC. It demonstrates the strength of FMC’s robust pipeline and the ability to address grower challenges through new innovative solutions that enhance the productivity and resilience of their crops. Isoflex® active is registered in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China and Great Britain.
