Stewardship requirements

Both Corteva Agriscience and Pioneer Seeds product stewardship approach means responsible management of the life cycle of our technologies from initial research to the discontinuation of a product.

Corteva Agriscience requires that growers comply with regulations, Corteva Agriscience policies, and crop management strategies for Optimum GLY® herbicide tolerant hybrids.

Growers will be required to complete applicable stewardship training and  complete a Technology Use Agreement (TUA) before obtaining, planting, or growing seed containing the Optimum GLY trait. The Technology Use Agreement is now available on the Corteva website.

 

Pioneer brand canola hybrids with Optimum GLY trait will be commercially available in 2024, with extensive demonstration trials being planted throughout key Optimum GLY growing regions in 2023.
