DuPont Crop Protection (DuPont) and Syngenta announced the publication of a joint patent, focused on the development of a new herbicide
chemistry class.
Collaboration on the project started in 2015 and has
resulted in the joint patent entitled “Substituted cyclic amides and
their use as herbicides.” The new herbicide has entered into the pre-development stage and is expected to be launched in 2023.
“We are very pleased that our collaboration with Syngenta has
extended into a joint research project for a new herbicide chemistry
class,” said Timothy P. Glenn, president, DuPont Crop Protection.
“Partnerships for the advancement of crop science and development of
crop protection solutions help growers realize the potential in their
fields.”
Jonathan Parr, president for Crop Protection at Syngenta, said, “We
are excited to be working again with DuPont on this herbicide research
and development project. Success in this field will bring much needed
new technology to farmers in the increasingly challenging area of weed
management, including resistance.”
