BASF is adding ten new soybean varieties for 2023. Soybean Seed Marketing Manager Doug Little says that innovation will continue with exclusive germplasm from BASF’s own breeding program with the Enlist E3 trait on the horizon. “In late 2029 and into 2030, we’ll have our soybean nematode-resistant trait coming out, that’ll be innovative and new pipeline material for our Xitavo lineup.” Additional traits are coming with the next decade. “With the collaboration with Corteva and MS Technologies, we’re going to have a new four-way traited soybeans and not too much after that, we’ll have a five-way herbicide tolerant traited soybeans.” Little was part of the Breakfast with BASF program at the Northern Ag Expo.
