Interfarm Becomes Sole UK Supplier for Bayer PGRs and Herbicide

Avatar for Posted by |8 October 2012

Interfarm is the new sole UK supplier for a range of cereal products including three PGRs, Cerone, Upgrade and Strate and the cleaver herbicide Eagle. This new marketing arrangement between Interfarm UK and Bayer CropScience UK is part of an on going development of distribution arrangements between both companies within the UK.

“Interfarm customers are benefiting directly from our affiliation with the global company Sumitomo Chemicals through distribution arrangement such as these,” says John Martin, managing director of Interfarm. “It means that as a company we are an attractive distribution outlet in the UK for some larger multinationals.”

According to David Stormonth, technical manager for Interfarm, the three plant growth regulators are important tools to reduce lodging in cereals, which was a very serious problem this past year. The herbicide, Eagle (containing amidosulfuron), offers superb control of cleavers, charlock, runch, volunteer rape, shepherd’s-purse and field forget-me-not in a range of cereals as well as in linseed.
