Biorational products are typically derived from natural or biological origins. Valent Biosciences / Valent U.S.A. are leaders in enhancing grower productivity by providing them with biorational solutions by way of plant growth regulators (PGRs) and actives for pest management. PGRs are powerful tools for our growers because they improve yield and crop quality and provide for harvest management and crop load management. Pest management actives protects the growers’ valuable crops and ensures food for sustaining our growing population. We are committed to R&D efforts that will expand biorational solutions to help our growers, and advance agriculture.
We are seeking novel compounds and delivery systems to enhance plant growth and pest management. Organic compounds are preferred.
- PGR activity
- Novel compounds that affect biological processes throughout plant growth and development including germination, flowering and fruit set, growth, stress tolerance, ripening, postharvest storage quality, senescence, and dormancy
Pest management activity
- Novel compounds that have either selective or broad-spectrum bioherbicide activity
- Novel compounds for control of fungi, bacteria, insects, and nematodes on various crop
Delivery systems
- Innovative technologies that can enhance the performance of small biological actives by increasing their stability and delivery
As subsidiaries of Sumitomo Chemical Co., Valent U.S.A., Valent BioSciences, and Pace International are global leaders in the development and commercialization of products using biorational, botanical, and traditional chemistries.
These products protect agricultural crops, enhance crop yields, improve postharvest quality, beautify the environment, reduce food waste and safeguard public health. Our technical expertise, state-of-the-art facilities and decades of agricultural industry experience help foster a culture of innovation and sustainability.
