"These are evident in the BioSolutions product category, for example, and in emerging concepts like agriculture decision support systems and applications—collectively known as digital farming— in which technology supports and enhances traditional farming practices. And, in the immediate future, we will introduce our new integrated crop spraying program, which protects and promotes crop yield and quality, while meeting the most stringent public and regulatory requirements.
