06-25-2008: BASF SE and Monsanto Company have signed an exclusive agreement for a new fungicide seed treatment solution for soybeans in the United States. The new product contains BASF's fungicide F 500®, the same active ingredient found in Headline® fungicide with its disease control and plant health benefits. The treatment, which is expected to be commercialized in conjunction with the launch of Monsanto's Roundup Ready 2 Yield(TM) soybean seed offering, will provide soybean farmers with early-season disease protection which results in improved stand and extra vitality.
Under the agreement, Monsanto will have exclusive rights to commercialize the new fungicide seed treatment in soybeans. Additional details of the agreement were not disclosed.
Since building up its seed treatment research facilities four years ago, BASF scientists have focused on bringing new active ingredients with proven disease control and other early-growth plant health benefits to seed partners and ultimately to the grower.
Earlier this year, Monsanto announced that it was establishing a global seed treatment platform focused on identifying new proprietary seed-based technologies that can be launched in parallel with its higher-yielding soybean, corn and cotton seed and traits offerings.
In 2009, Monsanto plans a controlled commercial release of Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans that will be treated with a proprietary treatment containing F 500. Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans are the second generation of Monsanto Roundup Ready soybean technology that will deliver top-end yield potential, helping farmers meet the growing global food and fuel demands.
