Plant-parasitic nematodes are microscopic organisms found in soil that feed on the roots of plants. Because they are notoriously difficult for farmers to identify and control, plant-parasitic nematodes represent a significant constraint to the delivery of global food security, causing damage estimated at or exceeding $80 bn/y. To address this significant, global challenge, Corteva has launched Reklemel active, a new nematicide to help protect a wide variety of food and row crops from plant-parasitic nematode damage without disrupting the healthy balance of beneficial organisms in soil. Reklemel active was discovered and developed by Corteva and is the result of more than a decade of research and investment. Reklemel received a Reduced Risk designation from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) due to the product's ability to selectively target plant-parasitic nematodes, its lower use rates than older nematicides, and its highly favourable environmental and toxicological profile as compared to alternatives. Reklemel is one of the first new active ingredients to be registered under EPA's updated policy incorporating Endangered Species Act assessments into the pesticide registration process. Salibro nematicide with Reklemel active will be available in the United States, India and Mexico beginning in late 2023, and is currently available for sale in Canada and Australia. Additional registrations are planned globally, including in the European Union, subject to regulatory approvals. Reklemel is the latest advance brought to market by Corteva to help farmers increase yields, meet climate and other challenges, and ultimately strengthen global food security. Corteva invests nearly $4 M/d in research and development.
