Three new product launches to
make farmers in India smile
DuPont Crop Protection in India recently launched three new
products that will provide long-lasting answers to insect and
weed problems and contribute to the prosperity of rice and sugar
cane farmers in the northern belts of the country. The new
products include a novel new insect control product,
DuPont™ Coragen™, and two new weed-control products –
DuPont™ Londax Power™ and
DuPont™ Velpar®.
“At DuPont, we strongly believe that if the farmer smiles, the
nation thrives. All three products that we have launched will
help the farmers in India protect their crops, improve crop
quality and optimize crop yield potential,” said Ram Mudholkar,
director, DuPont Crop Protection, South Asia.
Coragen™ is a revolutionary new insect control product that
optimizes a grower’s potential to produce high-quality,
high-yielding crops by providing long-lasting control of
damaging pests. It is powered by Rynaxypyr™, an award-winning
new chemistry from DuPont. Coragen™ insect control protects
rice, sugar cane, cotton crops, cabbage and cauliflower.
Londax Power™ weed control comes in an easy-to-use granular
formulation and is a new option for long-lasting control of
grasses and broadleaf weeds in rice through a single
application. Velpar® K-4™ weed control is an excellent solution
for broadleaf weed and grass control in sugar cane, where there
are very few good weed control options available. |
