    Intacta2 Xtend soybeans are tolerant to dicamba and very resistant to insects
    .
    About 4.
    3 million hectares (10.
    6 million acres) can be sown in 2022/23, compared to 243,000 hectares
    in the previous crop year.
     
    Bayer said it expects the rollout of the third-generation soybean seed technology to follow seed trials and tests in more than 500 locations in Brazil
    .
    Based on trials over the past two years, dozens of producers have achieved an average yield of 100 bags per hectare (60kg/bag).

     
    Rafael Mende, commercial director of products at Bayer Brazil Intacta, said some producers even produce more than
    120 bags per hectare.
     
    "Triple-digit soybean yields have always been a vision, but very few farmers have been able to reach this goal in a small area.
    .
    .
    And the fact that we have so many customers who have achieved this goal now proves that we are on the right path
    .
     
    Conab, Brazil's food supply agency, estimates that this yield is almost double the Brazilian average, which stands at 59 bags
    per hectare.
