Research Press Briefing 2025

From innovative products and processes to the use of AI in research—BASF offers exciting insights into the future of the chemical industry.

Our Agenda Highlight

Herbicide-resistant weeds are threatening cotton yields for farmers worldwide. To address this, BASF researchers have developed two innovative herbicide-tolerant traits for cotton seed. The development process focused on specific enzymes, known as 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenases (HPPD). Learn from Dr. Lorenzo Aleman-Sarinana, Head of Seed Technologies & Analytics Labs, how cutting-edge biotechnology is making cotton cultivation in the USA and Brazil more sustainable and future-proof.
