Independent seed companies now have more reduced refuge trait stack options available for 2013.
Syngenta and Dow AgroSciences have announced a joint agreement to offer two reduced refuge trait stacks to independents. The agreement covers the Agrisure Viptera 3220 and Agrisure 3122 trait stacks. A five percent refuge will be required with both products.
Under terms of the agreement, Syngenta’s Agrisure traits and Dow AgroSciences’ Herculex traits will be out-licensed for trait stack combinations through GreenLeaf Genetics, which will serve as the primary contact for independent seed companies. Syngenta and Dow AgroSciences will also continue to out-license their respective traits independent of each other.
The agreement will allow independent seed companies access to inbred lines in time for winter production, which should bring product to growers for the 2013 planting season.
