Valent Not In Spray Oil Business

Chuck Zimmerman

ValentHere’s the kind of story you don’t see often in a news release. Valent announced yesterday that it has “exited the spray oil business and will no longer market Volck Supreme Spray Oil, Volck Clear or Premium Ag 100.” Usually you get an announcement that a company is now doing something, not withdrawing. Interesting. I applaud them for making an important announcement and using a news release to do so. This is a story and worthy of a release!

This withdrawal will allow Valent to focus on its rapidly expanding new product pipeline and recent new product introductions for the tree fruit and nut markets, including Chateau® Herbicide, Venom™ Insecticide, Zeal™ Miticide, and MaxCel™, Prestige™ and ReTain® plant growth regulators.
