Bayer announced the launch of Testing4Ag, a new program that allows researchers from around the world to submit new chemical compounds for testing by Bayer, with the aim of identifying potential novel modes of action to control fungal diseases, insect pests or harmful plants. Part and parcel of Bayer's Open4Ag approach to collaboration and innovation, the initiative aims to develop the newest generation of crop protection products that safely and sustainably meet the needs of farmers. “Bayer is a leader in agricultural research and development and our commitment is to stimulate the future of agriculture, offering innovative and sustainable solutions to the problems faced by farmers both today and in the future,” said Bob Reiter, Head of Research and Development at Bayer's agricultural division.
Testing4Ag will combine the transformative ideas of pioneering researchers with the knowledge, specialists and resources of Bayer, without appropriating the intellectual property of the participants.” Testing4Ag is conducted in collaboration with Halo and will help scientists learn more about their Saudi Arabia Mobile Number List own compounds through transparent testing and results. The presented compounds will be evaluated in state-of-the-art biological tests against a wide variety of plant pathogens, harmful weed species, insect pests and nematodes or vectors. Test results will be sent directly to participants who will be able to freely use them in ongoing research. As part of the commitment to open innovation, researchers and their institutions will maintain all rights to potential intellectual property generated through the Testing4Ag program.
Ambitious program that aims to develop crop protection products that help farmers feed the world in the face of climate change, while further reducing the environmental impact of agriculture,” said Rachel Rama. , Head of Small Molecule Research at Bayer's agricultural division. «Researchers, universities and even small startups can help increase our understanding of solutions to the main problems facing agriculture at the moment. We invite you to participate in the initiative." To learn more about Testing4Ag or to submit material for evaluation, . Materials must be received by March 31, 2022 to be accepted for appreciation.
