Date:07-12-2016

Arysta LifeScience Ukraine(Platform Specialty Products' agrochemical business, ArystaLifeScience’s Ukrainian subsidy) recently registered five products, including fungicides EVITO® T and STARPRO®, herbicides DESPERADO® and PROPONIT® DUO, and plant growth regulator APPETIZER®.

"As a global company, Arysta LifeScience can draw from its experiences in other regions to identify products that offer the greatest advantages to growers in Europe," said José Nobre, President and CEO of Arysta LifeScience Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). "We are expanding our portfolio in Ukraine because we see a market that is eager for innovative products to increase production, particularly in crops such as cereals, oilseed rape and maize. We have continued to invest in Ukraine, even when the country was going through difficult times. We expanded both our team and our new product development efforts, from which we are now bearing the fruits."

EVITO T (fluoxastrobin and tebuconazole) is a next-generation strobilurin for disease control in cereals and oilseed rape. One of the key strengths of the product is its Xylem Pro™ technology, which ensures distribution of the active ingredient throughout the plant, moving to all areas of the leaves with water flow.

STARPRO (tebuconazole) has both preventive and curative actions against fungal diseases. In addition, it stimulates both root development and the plant's branching.

DESPERADO (mesotrione) is a selective post-emergence systemic herbidice used against a wide spectrum of annual and perennial broadleaved weeds, and some grasses in maize.

PROPONIT DUO (propisochlor and clomazone) is a broad-spectrum herbicide (grasses and broadleaved weeds) used in pre-emergence on winter and spring oilseed rape.

APPETIZER is a BioStimulant that secures crop yield and quality through activated nutrition pathways, enhanced photosynthetic activity and improved effect of soil fertilizers. It is registered for wheat and maize.

Prior to that, for almost 20 years, it was known as Tomen Corporation, Calliope and subsequently represented Arysta LifeScience.
