New products have arrived to market and will be in area fields.
Enlist E3™ soybeans are widely available in many brands for U.S. growers in
2020. What are Enlist E3™ soybeans? These industry-leading, herbicide-
tolerant soybeans provide tolerance to three herbicides:
• Enlist Duo® and Enlist One® herbicides (2,4-D choline)
• Glyphosate herbicides (Roundup)
• Glufosinate herbicides (Liberty)
Enlist E3™ soybeans acres are taking off at a faster pace than I anticipated. The flexibility and user-friendly system should deliver solid weed control. Just remember to invest in some type of pre to reduce early season weed pressure and widen the post application timing window for successful weed control. Corteva has a rebate program on the Enlist herbicide program. Check with me for more details.
Pioneer® brand Qrome® products are optimized high-performance, triple-stack
hybrids for growers. This new trait is easier to work with and unlocks more
germplasm to deliver new products. Much of our lineup has evolved to the
Qrome version to deliver triple stacked products replacing the prior AMXT
version.

Corteva is moving to AgCelerate for Technology Use Agreements (TUAs)
What is AgCelerate and why is Corteva using this application to manage TUAs? AgCelerate (https://www.agcelerate.com/Home) is an industry platform used by all major seed and technology suppliers to manage seed technology use agreements and grower license information.
TUAs signed through AgCelerate will be shared across all Corteva seed brand invoicing systems and sales channels (e.g. Pioneer, Multi-channel Seed Brands, Retail, etc.). Therefore, the customer only has to sign one TUA.
• Simplification - Currently there are 20+ active TUAs in-use across the various sales channels. The Corteva TUA covers all products, therefore, reducing the management of multiple TUAs per customer to ONE. If you have signed an updated TUA this fall or winter, you are good to go. Otherwise, by this fall, I will need you to have an AgCelerate account, log in and select Corteva TUA, and digitally sign that agreement before I can invoice seed for 2021. I’m happy to help you navigate this change for Pioneer and get you setup going forward. Let me know if you would like some help. Thanks.
