- FarMore FI400 technology, highlighted by its strong, consistent performance, is now available as treatment on cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and carrot seed
- The seed treatment technology optimizes productivity and profitability by protecting against early-season pests and disease
Growers of cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and carrots seeking early-season insect and disease protection have a powerful new tool available to them this year. Syngenta announced today that brassica and carrot seed can now be treated with FarMore® technology, the first comprehensive combination of separately-registered seed protection products, proprietary application technologies and dedicated seed treatment services that maximize production value by enhancing performance and quality.
“The benefit to both FarMore® FI400 Brassica and FarMore® FI400 Carrot is consistent performance,” said David Long, seed care product lead for Syngenta. “Growers will see enhanced seedling emergence, maximized plant stand establishment, and early-season vigor and plant health – not to mention the yield potential they’ll protect.”
FarMore FI400 technology combines the three fungicides found in FarMore® F300 technology with thiamethoxam insecticide to provide protection against a broad spectrum of early-season diseases and insects.
“In Syngenta trials, FarMore FI400 technology has consistently delivered early-season protection, ultimately improving the yield and quality of brassica and carrot crops,” said David Belles, technical product lead for Syngenta seed care technology.
