Devgen nv and Dogal A.S. receive regulatory approval for Devgen's nematicide product in Turkey
With a production under protective cover of more than 2 million tons of tomatoes and close to 1 million ton of cucumbers, Turkey is an important worldwide player for the production of these high value crops with substantial exports into EU countries, according to the companies. Nematodes cause important yield losses to these crops.
"Devgen, together with the leading crop protection company Dogal, is pleased to provide the vegetable farmer with a new solution to control nematodes in an environment where his nematode control options become increasingly limited." says Devgen's CEO, Thierry Bogaert. "After this pioneering research and product launch in Turkey we are now working hard to bring this product also to the vegetable growers in other Mediterranean countries."
