M.S. Technologies, L.L.C. and Syngenta Introduce Enlist E3® ExpanceTM Soybean Trait Technology at Commodity Classic 2026
New trait technology will provide farmers with tolerance to more active ingredients than any soybean trait stack in the industry
M.S. Technologies, L.L.C. and Syngenta announced the name and key details of its next-generation herbicide-tolerant soybean trait stack, Enlist E3® ExpanceTM trait technology, at the 2026 Commodity Classic. Anticipated for commercial availability in 2029 pending regulatory approvals, Enlist E3 Expance soybeans will offer farmers top-end yield potential paired with expanded tolerance to a broad range of trusted herbicide chemistries for more flexibility in early-season weed control.
Enlist E3 Expance soybeans will feature:
- Tolerance to more active ingredients than any other soybean trait stack on the market, including tolerance to glyphosate, glufosinate, 2,4-D choline and multiple HPPD inhibitor chemistries
- Industry-leading preemergence HPPD inhibitor tolerance, including tolerance to mesotrione, bicyclopyrone and isoxaflutole chemistries
- Elite genetics accelerated through decades of advanced soybean breeding
Through wider herbicide tolerance, the technology allows for expanded weed control options in soybeans while maintaining whole-farm flexibility without added system complexity.
“Since its formation, M.S. Technologies has been focused on developing the industry’s highest-performing soybean genetics,” said Joe Merschman, President of M.S. Technologies, L.L.C. “Enlist E3 Expance soybeans utilize our high-yielding, elite soybean genetics to deliver a robust and highly flexible weed control solution that we believe will bring tremendous value to soybean growers.”
Enlist E3 Expance soybeans were first announced in August 2025, with today’s introduction reinforcing the role this next-generation trait technology is expected to play in providing expanded weed management flexibility paired with strong agronomic performance.
Upon regulatory approval, M.S. Technologies, L.L.C. plans to release commercial varieties through its brand partners and licensing network as part of its continued commitment to advancing soybean trait innovation and delivering high-performing genetics to the marketplace.
