The approval comes after several years of successful field-testing of ProTone under experimental use programs in Chile, the U.S., South Africa, Australia, and other countries.

ProTone SL will be marketed as a 10% soluble liquid formulation for Chilean table grape growers and will be available for the 2009/2010 table grape season.
