Field Trials Introduction
Growers are up against mounting pest and disease challenges due to climate change, reduced efficacy, and diminishing availability of traditional pest control tools. The specialty crop industry in particular requires new crop input technologies due to governmental regulations and consumer demands. Bio-based and novel pest control options to address existing and anticipated gaps in pest management are sorely needed to ensure that our growers are properly equipped with the tools to address these challenges.
Platform10's field trials are focusing on key crops and their associated diseases and pests. By running these trials across international borders, we are able to leverage counter seasonal crop cycles in both northern and southern hemispheres. This will accelerate both the trialing process and the opportunity to get 'best of class' products into the market.
