ADAMA announced the opening of a new multi-purpose plant (MPP) in Taquari, Brazil. The new plant produces key active ingredients (AIs) for the crop protection industry, including Prothioconazole, an important fungicide which protects Brazil's soybean crops against Asian Soybean Rust. This plant will improve ADAMA's ability to supply Prothioconazole-based products using in-house capabilities.

This additional capacity will support the launch of several new products to the Brazilian market within the next five years. This new MPP supplements ADAMA's other Prothioconazole manufacturing facilities across the globe, positioning ADAMA as one of the top global producers and a leading supplier of this important molecule. With this plant, ADAMA has the capacity to fully supply its global future pipeline of Prothioconazole-based products based on its in-house production.

Production has already started to support ADAMA Brazil's leading products such as ARMERO(TM). This plant was built using advanced technologies that reduce energy and water consumption and limit waste generation. It also implements gas and particulate filtration systems that help avoid atmospheric pollution.
