This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 24, 2009. Non-selective
Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®,
TOUCHDOWN®
Higher
non-selective herbicide sales reflected continuing demand growth in
NAFTA. Growth was led by TOUCHDOWN®, with
volume increases due to increasing glyphosate-tolerant acres and minimum tillage
practices accompanied by further price realization in the USA and
Canada. In its second year, HALEX®
demonstrated continued success in the USA as a differentiator in the
TOUCHDOWN®
range. Sales of REGLONE® also
increased in Canada and Western Europe.

GRAMOXONE®,
TOUCHDOWN®
Sales of
TOUCHDOWN®, which
is marketed in a comprehensive product range, increased strongly in response to
higher glyphosate-tolerant acres in the Americas. Higher demand combined with
tight supply resulted in pricing improvements. GRAMOXONE® also
showed growth with strong demand in Asia more than offsetting the phasing out of
the product in Europe.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 6, 2009. Non-selective
Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE® and
TOUCHDOWN®
TOUCHDOWN® sales
increased significantly driven by growth in key markets including the USA,
Brazil, Argentina and Canada where glyphosate-tolerant acres continued to
expand. Sales also benefited from a favorable pricing environment
which offset higher sourcing costs. GRAMOXONE®
continued to prove its effectiveness in rapid weed burn-down and also
benefited from the tightness of glyphosate supply.

major brands GRAMOXONE®,
TOUCHDOWN®
An
exceptional performance reflected unprecedented demand for TOUCHDOWN® in
response to higher glyphosate-tolerant acres in the USA and Latin
America. The TOUCHDOWN® range
has been further differentiated this year by the launch of the combination
product HALEX®. A
favorable pricing environment meant that higher sourcing costs were fully
offset. Sales of GRAMOXONE®
benefited from its effectiveness in rapid weed burn-down and the
tightness of glyphosate supply.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 8, 2007. Non-selective Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®, TOUCHDOWN®
Both GRAMOXONE® and TOUCHDOWN® demonstrated good growth. TOUCHDOWN® grew strongly in the USA, driven by an expanded product range and the further penetration of glyphosate-tolerant technology in corn. GRAMOXONE® achieved growth in Latin America and broad-based growth in Asia augmented by the successful launch of GRAMOXONE® INTEON® in South Korea.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Mar 1, 2006. Non-selective Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®, TOUCHDOWN®
Sales were 5% higher, 2% at constant exchange rates, with volumes 5% higher but local currency prices 3% lower. GRAMOXONE® sales increased strongly in China where sales had been held back in 2003 to reduce inventories in the distribution channels but were lower in Australia due to drought. A strong recovery in TOUCHDOWN® sales, in the second half, as volumes increased in NAFTA and Latin America, was partially offset by ongoing price pressure in the USA.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 14, 2006. Non-selective Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®, TOUCHDOWN®
TOUCHDOWN® showed significant growth in the USA, Argentina and Eastern Europe driven by the launch of new brands and marketing programs. GRAMOXONE® sales were weaker in southern Europe and in Brazil owing to drought conditions in the first half, offset somewhat by good growth in China.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 28, 2005. Non-selective Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®, TOUCHDOWN®
TOUCHDOWN® generated volume growth in the USA and Argentina, driven by the launch of new brands and marketing programs. GRAMOXONE® sales were weaker in southern Europe and parts of Asia, notably Australia, where dry weather led to lower demand.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Mar 16, 2005. Non-selective Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®, TOUCHDOWN®
Sales were 5% lower and 10% lower at constant exchange rates, with volumes 8% lower and local currency prices 2% lower. GRAMOXONE® volumes were reduced particularly due to channel de-stocking in China, which more than offset growth in Brazil and Australasia. TOUCHDOWN® volumes and prices were lower due to a highly competitive US glyphosate market; two new product launches aimed at the chemfallow and premium glyphosate-tolerant segments have broadened the portfolio.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 15, 2005. Non-selective Herbicides: major brands GRAMOXONE®, TOUCHDOWN®
GRAMOXONE® sales increased strongly in China following planned channel inventory reduction in 2003 but were lower in Australia owing to drought. A strong recovery in TOUCHDOWN® sales in the second half, with volume increases in NAFTA and Latin America, was partially offset by ongoing price pressure in the USA.
