Brand manufacturers are not keeping up their side of the bargain.
Farmers believed premium pricing on branded crop input products meant continued investment in new chemistry.
Over the past two decades, very few new active ingredients have reached the market. Most investments have focused on reformulations or repackaging existing chemistry rather than investments in new products.
Farmers rely on tried-and-true off-patent formulations as an important part of their crop plans and understand how to use them without technical support. Yet they are still distributed through the same highly layered, expensive supply chain that brand-name products operate in.
