Syngenta expects to bring its Durastak seed trait to market in 2027. Syngenta Head of Technical Data Bruce Battles is excited about this new corn rootworm control. “I’ve had a chance to touch and play with this trait in our field agronomy research program and it’s just been exciting to watch it come to life over the last couple of years,” said Battles. “We dig thousands of roots each year, compare different back genetic backgrounds, as well as competitive traits that are on the market–the yield potential gain that our customers are getting on top of what they’ve been using today is just unbelievable. We’re extremely excited to be able to pass that along to our customers.” Watch the interview.
