Herculex Receives Regulatory Approval in Brazil
Date:12/11/2008

ated pest management system to attain higher yields of quality grain with fewer pesticide applications per year.

"This approval provides growers in Brazil - the third-largest corn producing nation in the world - with a wider range of enhanced crop protection technologies and offers greater opportunities for them to compete in the global market," said Antonio Galindez, Dow AgroSciences vice president, Crops Global Business Unit. "Herculex® I, our first transgenic corn offering in Brazil, also is approved for cultivation in the United States, Canada and Argentina and is authorized for food and feed uses in major grain-importing nations such as Japan, Korea and Mexico."

Dow AgroSciences and Pioneer formed a research collaboration in 1995 to develop insect resistant traits for themselves and for out-licensing. Herculex® I was launched in the United States in 2003. While the two companies jointly developed the traits, they are marketing them separately. Dow AgroSciences is responsible for all out-licensing.

Dow AgroSciences LLC, based in Indianapolis, Ind., USA, is a top-tier agricultural company that combines the power of science and technology to constantly improve what is essential to human progress. Dow AgroSciences provides innovative technologies for crop protection, pest and vegetation management, seeds, traits and agricultural biotechnology to serve the world's growing population. Global sales for Dow AgroSciences, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Dow Chemical Company, were $3.8 billion in 2007.
