Growers in Europe will now have access to a novel, sustainable option for enhancing plant health and crop quality

Under a new agreement between Corteva Agriscience and Pro Farm Technologies, a subsidiary of Marrone Bio Innovations, Corteva will become the exclusive European distributor for Kinsidro Grow, a novel, foliar bio-nutrient that delivers key nutrients resulting in increased plant vigour. Growers in Europe will now have access to a novel, sustainable option for enhancing plant health and crop quality through this agreement.

“Corteva Agriscience continues to bring new and innovative solutions to market by offering natural-origin products that improve crop performance and resilience, and that work complementarily with our conventional crop protection solutions,” said Susanne Wasson, President, Crop Protection Business Platform, Corteva Agriscience.

Kinsidro Grow is a proprietary product developed by Pro Farm Technologies that optimises nutrient conditions in plants resulting in improved plant health and crop quality. Through foliar application on crops during the vegetative growth stage, the bio-nutrient delivers better yields and more favourable returns on investment. Kinsidro Grow is also easy to use and compatible with a grower’s current agronomic practices.

This collaboration represents another step forward for Corteva’s expanding global biologicals portfolio, which is dedicated to developing biostimulants, biofertilisers, bio-nutrients, biocontrol and pheromone products with proven, predictable performance. Kinsidro Grow will provide value through enhanced crop vitality and enhancing yield potential and sustainability, in line with the Corteva Agriscience 2030 Sustainability Goals.

The multi-year agreement, which goes into immediate effect, applies to row crops in Europe such as corn, wheat, soybeans and cotton.

Enlist herbicides received a seven-year registration through January 11, 2029.

Corteva Agriscience, a global pure-play agriculture company has announced that the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has completed the registration amendment process for Enlist One and Enlist Duo herbicides, giving farmers certainty in product availability as they complete their 2022 seed planting and crop protection plans. Enlist herbicides received a seven-year registration through January 11, 2029.

The Enlist weed control system includes Enlist herbicides, Enlist Ahead, Enlist E3 soybeans, Enlist cotton and Enlist corn. The comprehensive system offers multiple herbicide modes of action to control tough weeds and is centred around 2,4-D choline with Colex-D technology, which provides key benefits including near-zero volatility, reduced potential for off-target movement and physical drift, and improved handling characteristics. Further, Enlist cotton and Enlist E3 soybean crops are tolerant to three herbicide modes of action, 2,4-D, glufosinate and glyphosate, allowing for a robust integrated weed management program to tackle herbicide resistance and improve the sustainability of farmers’ weed control practices.

“Farmers have been drawn to the technology’s weed control results and flexible timing for use,” said Susanne Wasson, president, Crop Protection Business Platform for Corteva Agriscience.

The Enlist herbicide registration amendment process included EPA conducting updated data analyses and initiating appropriate agency consultations to help confirm Enlist herbicides continue to comply with the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). As part of that process, EPA updated its ecological and ESA risk assessments, resulting in the addition of targeted risk mitigation measures to the Enlist herbicide labels.

Furthermore, Enlist Ahead was launched with the Enlist system to provide farmers with the confidence they need to trust the system and achieve on-target herbicide applications. The Enlist Ahead program helps customers with on-target applications and sound weed management practices for successful, sustainable use of the Enlist weed control system.
