BioHeuris

BioHeuris is an agricultural biotechnology company focused on optimizing crop genomes and developing technological solutions for more productive, efficient weed control. Its work addresses the growing challenge of herbicide-resistant weeds, which compete with crops for water, light, and nutrients and can undermine the effectiveness of existing control methods. The company collaborates with seed and chemical businesses to bring herbicide-tolerance traits to a range of crops, including soybean, sorghum, cotton, and rice. Its named solutions include SURON®, StrigOUT™, and Raizor®, although the supplied information does not specify their individual features.

BioHeuris says its technologies can help reduce weed competition and improve crop yields, enable lower-dose herbicide combinations, and extend the useful life of weed-control technologies by delaying resistance. Its crop programs include developing herbicide-resistant varieties and supporting integrated crop management, with work on rice varieties and hybrids also noted. Based in Rosario, Argentina, and St. Louis, United States, BioHeuris presents its mission as empowering crops through innovation while supporting agricultural productivity and more efficient weed management.
