Dhanuka Agritech launches new plant protection production

The Indian company Dhanuka Agritech has launched the production of two new plant protection products – Zanet fungicide and Cornex herbicide, for use under corn and tomatoes. They are created in cooperation with Japanese enterprises Hokko Chemical Trade and Nippon Soda.

“The annual loss of crops in India is estimated at 10 billion rupees (about $130 million) due to various pests and weeds. Our drugs will help farmers who cultivate corn and tomato,” said Rahul Dhanuka, Director of Dhanuka Agritech.

Dhanuka Agritech cooperates with companies in the USA, Japan and Europe. It currently produces 80 crop protection products and plans to output four more over the next two months.
