Syngenta Crop Protection and Gowan Seedtech have announced that they have entered into a sale agreement with Gowan acquiring Syngenta's FarMore Technology Vegetable Seed Treatment Platform in the United States.
The FarMore Technology Platform is a precise on-seed application of separately registered seed protection products combined into proprietary recipes for use on vegetable crops. The transaction includes the divestment of certain specific Syngenta trademarks, recipes, registrations, and other assets used in the FarMore Technology Platform in the United States. Syngenta also has agreed to supply its proprietary vegetable seed treatment products to Gowan for its use in FarMore Technology offerings.
"We believe that with Gowan's strategic focus on servicing U.S. vegetable growers and Syngenta's active ingredient innovation, breeder-producers and seed technology companies alike will benefit from this transaction and our continuing collaboration," said Jeff Cecil, head of North America Crop Protection Marketing.
"We are looking forward to building on this precision application technology, with a renewed focus and expanded offerings in the future," said Alex Deckey, Gowan SeedTech business manager.
