Arysta LifeScience announced the immediate suspension of product sales for all formulations of the fumigant MIDAS® (active ingredient: methyl iodide) in the United States. The announcement is limited to MIDAS® and applies to no other product the company markets. The decision was made as part of an internal review of the fumigant and based on its economic viability in the U.S. marketplace.
"Arysta LifeScience remains committed to growers through our many other products,” said Amy Yoder, Head of Arysta LifeScience North American Business Unit. “We will continue to develop and bring to market innovative solutions for growers in the crop protection market.”
The company would like to express its gratitude to growers, researchers, business partners and supporters who helped MIDAS® achieve U.S. EPA registration and registration in 48 states (AgroNews 2011-11-04). Arysta LifeScience will continue to support the use of iodomethane outside of the U.S. where it remains economically viable.
