FMC Corporation advances RNA-based bioinsecticide trials in global agriculture
What happened
FMC Corporation is collaborating on the field trial of two proprietary RNA-based biomolecule candidates designed for crop protection. These candidates, which function as a new category of bioinsecticide, are moving from lab validation into real-world testing across key growing regions in the United States, Brazil, and Asia. The insects they target include the fall armyworm and diamondback moth.

Why it matters
The bioinsecticides aim to control lepidopteran pests that cause nearly $14 billion in global crop losses and control costs annually. This represents a significant commercial opportunity in agricultural science and crop protection.
