Press Release: Exosect Secure Grant From The Dutch Ministry Of Agriculture


...Exosect Awarded Grant Under The Dutch GENOEG Breed Project...

Exosect, a leading provider of environmentally conscious insect pest control, has announced that it is supported by the Genoeg Breed project and as part of that support, Genoeg-breed will provide up to €100,000 as 50% co-financing for additional research and/or registration costs. The grant has been awarded to Exosect to support a two-year programme of regulatory trials on Exosex CM, Exosect’s auto-confusion mating disruption product designed to control the population of Codling moth in apple and pear orchards. Exosex CM uses only 25 dispensers per hectare, releasing the equivalent of 1,000 times less pheromone into the atmosphere than competing mating disruption systems.
