[Press Release] NUCROP – Hybrid Electric Crop Protection; Nufarm and CROP.ZONE Launch New Brand for Alternative Weed Control

Australian crop protection and specialty seed company Nufarm, and German ag-tech start-up CROP.ZONE are announcing the launch of ‘NUCROP – Hybrid Electric Crop Protection’.

Aachen, Germany, Jan 21, 2021 – (ACN Newswire) – Australian crop protection and specialty seed company, Nufarm and German ag-tech start-up, CROP.ZONE are announcing the launch of NUCROP – Hybrid Electric Crop Protection. Through its Early Adopters Program, the competitive and sustainable alternative for weed management is now available to Farmers and Contractors in Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands.

The NUCROP solution combines chemical and physical processes to create a compelling and sustainable method of weed control. By pre-treating plants with conductive liquid, acceptable for organic use, and then applying electrical charge, the solution can control weeds with a very high degree of efficiency and lower energy consumption than conventional weeding technologies.

In the Early Adopters program, Nufarm and CROP.ZONE team up with selected channel partners in Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands and offer farmers and contractors access to NUCROP technology. The Early Adopters Program will focus on several crops and applications, with a strong focus on potato desiccation in 2021. Other uses are in trailing phase and will be available to farmers shortly. The NUCROP technology offers farmers and contractors a real alternative to chemical solutions at competitive prices, especially for those crops where chemical weed control options have been reduced and where alternative technologies are required.

With NUCROP, Nufarm and CROP.ZONE offers a safe, reliable, and environmentally friendly alternative to make European agriculture more sustainable. For more information on the Early Adopters Program, visit us at www.crop.zone.
