The hybrids with this new technology have maximum tolerance to the yellow aphid, managing to minimize the risk of losses, protecting the yield potential that so characterizes our Advanta sorghums. This is possible, since the reproduction rate of the yellow aphid in Aphix sorghum is lower than that of conventional sorghum. In this way, the application window is greatly expanded and the use of insecticides is reduced. Consequently, it gives us more time to make the right decision.

It is the first technology for weed control in sorghum that confers resistance to herbicides of the imidazolinone family. The igrowth technology in sorghum was developed by Advanta Semillas, in Argentina, through mutagenesis methods.
