Bayer CropScience declared that its new releases are particularly targeted at the problems and challenges encountered by farmers in their daily operations, such as the efficiency of seed treatment, weed resistance, long-lasting efficacy, crop safety and quality of produce. These new products, being effective complements and upgrades to the total crop protection solution of Bayer CropScience in China, will enable farmers to develop more efficient, safer and easier control of pests, weeds and fungus.
After the conference, Agropages had an interview with Dr. Sascha Israel, Head of Bayer CropScience APACt; Rob Hulme, Country Head Greater China; and Cheng Cheng, Head of Marketing.
According to Dr. Sascha Israel, “Bayer CropScience adheres to its global strategy of market leadership. This is a medium to long-term strategy that will last till 2020. Under this strategy, China is our most important market in Asia, and we will continue our investment in this market, as reflected by today’s series of releases. More products will be launched in the future.”
China’s research capacity in the global market is gradually growing, which is shown by the following:
1) General investments in crop protection, which is growing worldwide, especially in herbicides, fungicides and seed treatment products;
2) China is playing a more and more important role in research activity. China’s present position of research at the later stages will be enhanced to research involvement in earlier stages in the future;
3) From a global perspective, China is an integral part of Bayer CropScience production and supply globally. Since we have production bases in China, a lot of production, including formulation production, is taking place in China. This will demonstrate the important position of the country in the Bayer CropScience organization.”
