It was one year ago that Syngenta’s Durastak Corn Trait Stack was approved by EPA and this time next year farmers will be able to see next level corn rootworm control with the Durastak/Durastak Viptera brand technology that is the first triple Bt protein stack for corn rootworm control.
At the Syngenta Traits exhibit at last week’s Commodity Classic, Corn Product Manager Matt Dolch was updating growers on what to expect with the new trait stack. “We’re going to continue building on the horsepower of Duracade trait technology and our Syngenta corn traits portfolio and then continue to bring in new products with Durastak/Durastak Viptera,” said Dolch. “When we add the Viptera piece in we’re getting the industry-leading broad lepidopteran control for above ground insects. So really nice protection against things like Western bean cutworm, fall armyworm, black cutworm, et cetera.”
Dolch encourages farmers to visit Durastak.com for more information.
