Nufarm和Sumitomo就产品开发和推广等事宜展开了协商,它们将合作开发新兴除草剂,以应对越来越严重的杂草抗性问题。由于在转基因作物中草甘膦使用量越来越多,导致一些草类产生了抗性,使得除草效果下降。在一些报道中,在棉花和大豆作物田中,已经出现了抗草甘膦草类,这些情况在美国尤其严重。 Nufarm and Sumitomo negotiated product development and marketing efforts, and they will work together to develop emerging herbicides to tackle the growing problem of weed resistance. As more and more glyphosate is used in genetically modified crops, some grasses develop resistance and the weeding effect decreases. In some reports, glyphosate-resistant grasses have emerged in cotton and soy crop fields, and these are particularly serious in the United States.
