Brandt and Valent USA Corporation Reach
Agreement on Di-Tera® Distribution
January 21, 2009
Valent USA Corporation has selected Brandt Consolidated, Inc. to be exclusive distributor of DiTera® east of the continental divide. Brandt, headquartered in Springfield, IL, is a leader in the micronutrient and plant health technologies and has served the Ag industry since 1953. Brandt is uniquely positioned to promote DiTera’s nematode control and root growth and plant vigor benefits through education, sales and technical support, and field demonstrations. This new market strategy will provide more focus on targeted crops such as vegetables and berries.
Through its unique mode of action, DiTera® consistently accomplishes complete nematode management. The objective of nematode management is to protect the plant from nematode damage, allowing for healthy root development, efficient uptake of nutrients and water, optimum plant growth and sustainable economical yields. DiTera® accomplishes all of the above resulting in better quality and higher yielding crops while holding a 4 hour worker re-entry interval (REI) and a 0 day post-harvest interval (PHI).
Brandt is excited to add this sustainable chemistry to its extensive portfolio as both a stand-alone product and in combination with their current product, Sesamin® EC, a naturally derived nematicide.
States covered in distribution agreement: AL, AR, CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, IA, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS, NC, NH, NJ, NY, OH, PA, PR, RI, SC, TN, TX, VA, VT, WI, WV.
