Problem
Existing crop protection products often require high dose rates, leading to increased environmental impact and potential harm to non-target organisms. Additionally, the limited patent life of these products restricts innovation and the development of more sustainable agricultural solutions.
Solution
Redag Crop Protection develops modified active ingredients for herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides that significantly reduce dose rates while maintaining efficacy. By making minor molecular changes to existing active ingredients, Redag creates new structures with enhanced performance and an improved environmental profile. This approach allows for the development of more sustainable crop protection products with extended patent life, addressing the need for environmentally conscious and economically viable agricultural solutions. Redag synthesizes, screens, and patents these modified active ingredients, building a portfolio of improved crop protection options.
Target Audience
Redag Crop Protection targets agrochemical companies seeking to improve the sustainability and extend the patent life of their crop protection product portfolios.
