This includes a reinforced commitment to protect people and the environment,\u201d explained Juan Sasturain, Manager for Product Stewardship Strategies at BASF\u2019s Agricultural Solutions division and current chair of the easyconnect CTS pilot group. \u201cTo further reduce operators\u2019 exposure, the European crop protection industry wants to make technologies, such as CTS, available to 100% of European farmers and operators by 2030. With easyconnect, we are fully on track to meet this target.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The easyconnect system consists of two components: a unique cap \u2013 pre-fitted on the containers \u2013 and a coupler, which together establish the CTS.<\/p>\n<div class=\"oembed\">\n<div class=\"oembed__inner\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Spraywise: Using the easyconnect closed transfer system\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iv24ksL5_Xg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201ceasyconnect provides a compelling combination of safety and convenience in handling liquid crop protection products, reducing potential risks of spilling and splashes during the filling process. Using easyconnect is the safest and most convenient way for operators to fill their spray tank, and this is what convinced us to join the pilot group,\u201d explained Jacques Haverlant, Head of Innovation and Development, Certis.<\/p>\n<p>The first market launch is expected in Denmark and the Netherlands in 2021, followed by France, Germany and the United Kingdom in 2022. Other countries are likely to follow.<br \/>\nDeveloped by BASF in collaboration with third-party equipment manufacturers, easyconnect has been extensively tested on-farm across Europe since 2015. Based on farmers\u2019 feedback, the system has been steadily improved in terms of handling and speed, making filling faster than via the commonly used induction hopper.<br \/>\neasyconnect is an open technology and available to all interested agricultural parties. Further industry players in the agrochemical sector, equipment manufacturers or any other parties interested in joining the launch of easyconnect are encouraged to contact any of the six companies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Media Inquiries:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"table-wrap notranslate\"><table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Contact Adama<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alison Bosher<br \/>\nMarketing Director<br \/>\nalison.bosher@adama.com<br \/>\n+44 7884 650 781<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Contact BASF<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Andre Cambeis<br \/>\nHead of Communications UK\/IE<br \/>\nandre.cambeis@basf.com<br \/>\n+44 7901 878 105<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Contact Certis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nathan Whitehouse<br \/>\nMarketing Manager UK<br \/>\nwhitehouse@certiseurope.com<br \/>\n+44 1223 652 506<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Contact Corteva<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>John Sellars<br \/>\nCategory Manager<br \/>\njohn.sellars@corteva.com<br \/>\n+44 7885 662 511<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Contact Nufarm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Louise Dalgliesh<br \/>\nMarketing Manager<br \/>\nlouise.dalgliesh@nufarm.com<br \/>\n+44 7384 461 694<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Contact Syngenta<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Luke Gibbs<br \/>\nHead Business Sustain UK\/IE\/Nordics<br \/>\nluke.gibbs@syngenta.com<br \/>\n+44 1344 424 701<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>easyconnect closed transfer system pilot group expands Manchester, United Kingdom, October 27th, 2020 \u2013 The number of agricultural industry leaders committed to provide access to closed transfer systems (CTS) continues to grow.
