Under a new distribution agreement, Germany-based Neudorff assigns distribution rights to the biopesticide company Certis USA to market its OMRI-listed, NOP-approved products DES-XTM insecticidal soap concentrate, Cueva liquid copper fungicide concentrate, Seduce insecticidal bait and Sluggo slug and snail bait. (Certis USA will distribute Sluggo to Eastern markets only.)

The distribution agreement allows Neudorff to introduce its full line of products into the U.S. specialty agriculture and ornamental industry. For Certis USA, the additional bioproducts give it the most extensive biopesticide product line in the country.

"Quite simply, we saw this as a natural fit. Certis USA has extensive history developing its own biopesticides, in market development, and stewarding bioproducts in the field through its expert staff," said Cameron Wilson, V.P. of Neudorffs North American Operations.

Tim Damico, Executive V.P. NAFTA for Certis USA, said the distributor agreement with Neudorff satisfies two important objectives for his company. "First, Neudorff is giving us access to high quality products that satisfy real problems in the field. Second, the addition of these products into our product line reinforces the Certis USA position as the biopesticide company for broad product choice and support," Damico said.

The Biopesticide Market

Market potential for biopesticides is stronger now than in any other time in history, Damico said. "The lines between organic and conventional farming are blurring just as are the distinctions between organic and conventional pesticides. With the removal of some pesticides from the market or the reregulation of others, novel active ingredients that address specific grower needs are greatly needed."

The Neudorff products do just that, Damico said. DES-X, a non-flammable insecticidal soap will be an alternative to existing soap products. Cueva, the liquid copper fungicide, has a unique patented copper active ingredient that allows more activity at lower rates, thereby the copper load per acre is reduced. Seduce is a new insecticidal (cutworm) bait that contains spinosad, and Sluggo is widely known as an effective all-weather snail and slug control product with an exemption from residue tolerances.
