Temper™ More, ADAMA’s New Broad Spectrum Herbicide, Receives Registration in USA

Next-generation weed control solution powered by Sesgama® Formulation Technology offers farmers better planning, fewer applications, and long-term resistance management

TEL AVIV, Israel and RALEIGH, N.C., May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ADAMA Ltd. (SZSE: 000553), a leading global crop protection company, announced that its new herbicide, Temper™ More, has received registration in the United States. Temper More delivers excellent burndown and long-lasting residual activity, helping to break the cycle of herbicide-resistant weeds in row crops. Powered by ADAMA’s proprietary Sesgama® Formulation Technology, the solution offers farmers a more effective tool to manage weed resistance.

Herbicide resistance continues to challenge farmers across the U.S., making it increasingly difficult to control aggressive weeds. Glyphosate alone is no longer effective in many cases, often requiring multiple applications that increase cost, create logistical complexity, and raise the risk of crop damage and yield losses.    

Temper More is built with a powerful combination of S-Metolachlor and Glufosinate-ammonium—two active ingredients with different modes of action—making it a smarter, long-term solution for managing glyphosate-resistant weeds. It targets a broad range of grass and broadleaf weeds that have developed resistance to glyphosate, PPO, and ALS-based herbicides – including pigweed, morningglory, and waterhemp.

With dual modes of action, Temper More delivers broad-spectrum control and extended residual activity, giving crops like soybean, corn, and cotton a clean and competitive start. This early-season suppression supports better planning and fewer applications, helping growers save time and money.

Temper More also helps preserve the long-term effectiveness of herbicide-tolerant systems, such as Dicamba and 2,4-D. Its flexible application window is especially valuable for glufosinate-resistant cropping systems, giving growers greater operational flexibility and reducing in-season stress.

Temper More is powered by ADAMA’s proprietary Sesgama® Formulation Technology, which enables the stable and easy-to-use combination of S-Metolachlor and Glufosinate-ammonium. This advanced formulation, using a proprietary polymeric surfactant, ensures optimal performance and ease of application.

“Temper More is a leap forward for U.S. farmers in the fight against herbicide-resistant weeds,” said Germain Boulay, Head of Global Herbicides and Molluscicides at ADAMA. “It gives growers a smarter, more flexible tool to manage resistance and plan their season with greater confidence. By combining powerful burndown and lasting residual activity, Temper More restores control and predictability to weed management—reducing the need for multiple, last-minute applications and enabling more efficient, long-term planning.”

ADAMA U.S. has conducted a large number of trials across key geographies to demonstrate Temper More’s performance. The product has consistently outperformed straight glufosinate or glyphosate in early post-emergence applications and has proven especially effective against common waterhemp, one of the most widespread and difficult-to-control resistant weeds in U.S.

A successful student pilot demonstrates how secure digital records and AI guidance can help them access education, employment, housing, and life opportunities

SACRAMENTO, Calif., June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Vaultzy, an AI-powered document management and life assistant platform, today announced the successful completion of a pilot with Miracle University, demonstrating how secure digital records and intelligent guidance can help students overcome barriers to education, employment, and economic mobility.

California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, CPA, noted, “Never expired. Never lost. Your vital documents, all in one secure place.”

For many students, particularly those facing economic hardship or life disruptions, lost identification, unavailable transcripts, and scattered paperwork can delay enrollment, employment, housing applications, financial aid, and access to public services. Vaultzy was created to address this challenge by providing a secure, user-controlled platform for lifelong document management.

Beyond document storage, Vaultzy recently launched the first version of its AI-powered Life Agent. The platform allows users to interact with their personal records and receive guidance related to major life transitions. By understanding what documents a user has available, the Life Agent can help identify requirements and next steps for education, employment, healthcare, government services, financial planning, and other important milestones.

The pilot was conducted in partnership with Miracle University, a Sacramento-based nonprofit organization dedicated to helping students who have left the traditional education system earn their high school diplomas and achieve academic and career success. The initiative focused on helping students digitize, organize, and securely manage their most important records while introducing them to emerging technologies that can support their long-term success.

“Our mission is to help students overcome barriers and unlock their full potential,” said Dr. Kadhir Raja, Founder of Miracle University. “Students need access to their documents, confidence in managing important life transitions, and guidance on what comes next. Vaultzy helps bring all of these together, empowering students to navigate education, employment, housing, and other life opportunities with greater confidence and independence.”

The pilot demonstrated the importance of giving individuals lifelong access to trusted records while providing the tools and guidance needed to use them effectively. As California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, CPA, noted, “Never expired. Never lost. Your vital documents, all in one secure place.”

Looking ahead, Vaultzy plans to continue expanding its AI-powered capabilities. “We envision a future where every individual has a trusted AI companion that not only safeguards their records but also helps guide them through life’s most important transitions,” said Avanti Ramraj, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Vaultzy.

The success of the Miracle University pilot is helping inform broader discussions with educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, financial institutions, and public-sector leaders interested in modernizing how individuals manage and access trusted records while receiving guidance through important life transitions. One of the most promising opportunities is the potential application of Vaultzy within programs serving foster youth, seniors, and other underserved populations.

Vaultzy is an AI-powered document management and life assistant platform that helps individuals securely store, manage, and share important records throughout their lives.
