Corteva Agriscience brings innovations for Brazilian agriculture to Tecnoshow Comigo

Corteva Agriscience is present once again at Tecnoshow Comigo, which takes place from April 4th to 8th, at the Comigo Technological Center (CTC), in Rio Verde (GO), and brings innovations to contribute to the main challenges faced by farmers in their crops. In the 19th edition of the event, which proposes technological experiences to assist producers in the field, Corteva, which continually invests in research and technology to offer an increasingly complete portfolio, presents its solutions in the areas of Seeds, Crop Protection and Digital Agriculture .

At Tecnoshow Comigo, Corteva presents its recent launch, the Enlist System, one of the most anticipated agribusiness technologies that has come to revolutionize the sector with a new biotechnology option for soybean seeds that combines high-performance genetics with the best weed management and caterpillars. Formed by the pillars of Seeds & Biotechnology, Herbicides and High Performance Genetics, and supported by the pillar of Good Agricultural Practices, the Enlist System promotes a complete experience and its main benefits are diversity, convenience, flexibility and greater control in application, which is why it is considered the simplest choice for productivity to evolve.

Enlist E3 seeds are tolerant to Enlist Colex-D (new 2,4-D choline salt), glyphosate and glufosinate ammonium. Conkesta E3 seeds, in addition to tolerance to the three herbicides, also contain two Bts proteins (Cry1F and Cry1Ac) for the management of the main caterpillars in soybean crops. During the event, it will be possible to learn more about the Enlist System through the varieties made available by Corteva's own and licensed brands and the herbicide platform, made up of the products Enlist Colex-D and Enlist Duo Colex-D, which can be applied in pre- and post-emergence of soybeans and offer excellent weed control effectiveness, in addition to a reduction in drift potential that can reach up to 90%, ultra-low volatility and odor reduction. Enlist Colex-D and Enlist Duo Colex-D are the only 2,4-D-based herbicides registered and recommended for post-emergence use on Enlist soybeans. Enlist will have a dedicated space for experts to present the Enlist System, its benefits and the varieties launched this harvest.

Another important highlight is the Pioneer brand, which completes 50 years in Brazil in 2022 as a great partner for farmers and continues to be the leader for the 15th consecutive year in the summer and off-season corn seed market in the country. The brand innovates once again and presents the Optimum AQUAmax technology, unprecedented in Brazil and with greater tolerance to water stress, contributing to the evolution of this market. The products have undergone the most advanced genetic improvement techniques to provide maximum productivity even in adverse conditions, in a research process conducted over the last 10 years in Brazil and more than 40 years worldwide. At the Corteva stand, Pioneer will have a Ranch, an exclusive location in its area planted with cultivars and hybrids.

Brevant Sementes will also be at the event and will take participants on a guided tour of its planted area. On the “Inside Innovation” tour, visitors will follow the representatives' explanation of the brand's hybrids and cultivars, and will have access to an exclusive online page with complementary content to enrich the moment. The brand presents, first-hand, the cultivars with Conkesta E3 biotechnology, developed tailored for the Brazilian farmer, with high-performance genetics, high productive potential and excellent health.

In the area of ​​Crop Protection, producers will be able to discover several new features that have the innovation present in Corteva's DNA and were developed after many years of research, with a focus on helping farmers' daily lives and maximizing productivity, such as Viovan fungicides , Aproach Power, both launches, and Vessarya, the Paxeo herbicide, the brand's innovation, the Expedition insecticide, and the launches of the biological portfolio, such as Omsugo P, Inlayon and Lumialza, which represent Corteva's entry into this new segment and will complement the company's portfolio for the soybean, corn and cotton markets.
