New and environmentally friendly insecticide active ingredient

BASF's new insecticide Axalion™ will be registered for use in a broad range of crops in the fruits and vegetable markets. Additional row crop uses extend to soybeans and other legumes, cotton and cereals

BASF has started the global registration for a new insecticide active ingredient. The company submitted the regulatory dossiers for the Axalion™ insecticide in Australia and Korea. This step marks a key milestone in further expanding BASF’s global insecticide portfolio and the company’s position in providing sustainable innovations for agriculture. Further regulatory dossier submissions are planned for the European Union, Brazil and India in 2021 as well as other key markets in the coming years. Axalion quickly stops insect pests from feeding. This reduces nutrient loss for the plant and prevents the pests from transmitting diseases, resulting in healthier plants and optimal yields with higher quality.
