products of sumitomo like Dantotsu v/s
Coragen.
31. Suggestions
Sumitomo should use the rhythm words like
Bayer crop science, UPL and so on
i.e. Topstar ki fuhaar , Faslon me Chamatkaar.
UPL ka jhatka, Gulli danda latka.
Sumitomo also should use the printed Polly bag
as a promotion strategies.
Use of audio cliping before local song.
U.P. has a lots of potential so company should
work in all over U.P.

technique in insecticide sector and using a very
latest technique in the world.
Sumitomo developed a technique which is
dangerous only for Hemoglobin free insects,
