MIDAS® REGISTRATION RENEWED WITH NO TIME LIMITATION

Arysta LifeScience has announced that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has renewed the registration without time limitations for MIDAS® products. MIDAS®, developed as an alternative to methyl bromide, is a broad-spectrum soil fumigant that controls a broad range of soil-borne diseases, nematodes, weed seeds and insects that threaten high-value crops. MIDAS® received a time-limited commercial registration for one year from the EPA in October 2007. Since that time, MIDAS® has been registered for use in 47 states, including Florida.
