United States“The investments of companies, such as DuPont, focused on Research & Development have resulted in the appearance of next-generation chemical molecules. These developments allow us to create a future marked by the launch of products that more active and specific in controlling undesired biological organisms, such as nematodes, insects, diseases and weeds, according to a statement from Marcelo Okamura, director of Research & Development of DuPont Crop Protection Brazil.
The executive has conducted a cycle marked by innovations in a portfolio of products of the company to highlight the launch of a new generation of agrochemicals. “Such products have less impact on man and the environment. In a few years, we will have more and more agrochemicals in the market. The agrochemicals can be used on crops in minimal amounts and fewer applications to be more effective for sustainable agriculture,” Okamura said in an interview to the portal Global Agrochemicals.
According to him, the synergy between these products and the resources of biotechnology also present a strong trend for the coming years. “From this association, we believe to have determined the market segments, such as in seed treatment, which will tend to grow with the development of new technologies.”
“More and more new agrochemicals will continue to play a positive role on the agricultural yields to meet the growing demand for food in the world. As a science company, we understand that DuPont has brought about huge contributions to the world agriculture throughout history. Specifically, in the last decade, the company has built a pipeline of innovative products,” he highlighted.
“Besides having strengthened the role of technologies available for the control of diseases, plagues and weeds, DuPont's efforts have also resulted in the improvement of the quality of raw materials employed for the generation of clean and renewable energy. The major investments of DuPont Crop Protection on research will be directed to food and bioenergy,” Okamura said.
