ProNutiva Moving Beyond Conventional Crop Protection

• ProNutiva Moving Beyond Conventional Crop
  Protection
• Every crop has specific requirements that would
  be considered ideal for its growth. Meeting those
  requirements when there are varying
  environmental factors involved is a challenge.
  UPLs crop protection products have been
  evolving to help growers meet this challenge.
  Herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and
  acaricides are available in different forms and
  can even provide broad-spectrum protection and
  resistance management. Many of these crop
  protection products also have flexible
  formulations so the localized needs can be met.
  Looking to move beyond conventional crop
  protection, we invested in creating biosolutions
  that contribute to crop health in both direct and
  indirect ways. The future of agriculture and
  crop protection is combining the best of both
  these technologies. With this in mind, we
  launched our integrated crop health solution
  program, ProNutiva.
• Integrating Biosolutions for Sustainable Crop
  Protection
• While they are not an alternative to conventional
  crop protection, the complementary use of
  biosolutions can reduce the use of fertilizers,
  enable the crops to grow better, and increase
  their resistance. This provides a more
  sustainable approach that is beneficial for
  growers needs as well as the environment.
• ProNutivas portfolio includes multiple types of
  biosolutions
• Bioprotection
• Biostimulation
• Bionutrition
• These biosolutions together with the integrated
  management of pests, weeds, and diseases lead to
  an increase in the yield and quality of crops.
• A Customized Solution for Each Crop
• No two crops are the same and the crop protection
  methods that they require are different. UPL
  supports the need of todays growers through
  ProNutiva by providing customized crop protection
  solutions for them. ProNutiva isnt just about
  combining products, the proper integration of
  biosolutions and crop protection products and
  seed treatment solutions can match and in some
  cases, even exceed the expected benefits. A
  ProNutiva program is a tailored approach to plant
  protection and nutrition that is customized for
  the requirements of the crops. It can cover the
  needs of the plants throughout the entire crop
  cycle or at specific developmental stages. The
  application can be done by seed treatment, in the
  row, by fertigation, or by spraying. The
  applications themselves can be of separate or
  combined biosolutions and crop protection
  products.
• Apart from this, ProNutiva has also seen success
  in trials conducted in Hungary and Poland. As
  ProNutiva can improve growing economics and help
  meet the needs of global food chain requirements
  in addition to supporting sustainable
  agriculture practices, we look forward to
  bringing it to more growers around the world who
  can benefit from it.
