Winners of the "Guess who's coming to dinner?" photo competition, which features DuPont Crop Protection's (DCP) Rynaxypyr™ insecticide, have highlighted various pests targeted by DCP products.  Sorin Daraban, sales representative for DuPont Crop Protection in Romania, won first place for a photograph of Colorado beetle larva (pictured).

With more than 400 photos submitted, this was the second photo competition for DuPont Crop Protection.  In 2005, a similar competition focused on Proquinazid® fungicide.

"I was impressed with the overall standard of photography," said Roger Doig, regional director, DCP - Europe, Middle East & Africa.  "This is an excellent way to get new material to help launch our Rynaxypyr™ products -- Coragen® and Altacor®."
