An Unwavering Focus on Seedcare Excellence

While our past is a roadmap to where we are today, the hope for a better future is the driving force that continually propels us forward. At Syngenta, we’ve been developing industry-leading seed treatments for more than four decades. But it’s our robust pipeline of novel Seedcare solutions that fuels our imaginations and fortifies our confidence that tomorrow will be even brighter.

Our sustained focus on seed treatment excellence is the foundation of our current portfolio and pipeline. As the No. 1 seed treatment provider in the world, we have dedicated teams who work specifically to solve crop challenges in ways that only on-seed technologies can. From the CruiserMaxx^®, Avicta^® and FarMore^® family of brands to Dynasty^®, Plenaris^® and Vibrance^® seed-applied fungicides, our products have a rich history of helping to manage a wide range of pests across a diverse mix of crops.

To maintain this momentum, Syngenta vigorously invests in research and development. On average, we spend more than 10 years and nearly $280 million to develop each new seed treatment molecule that we bring to market. One of our most promising advances is a remarkable seed treatment for protecting soybeans from sudden death syndrome.

This game-changing technology — Saltro^® fungicide seed treatment — is available to growers for the 2020 planting season. Additionally, we have a number of fungicide, insecticide and nematicide seed treatments in our pipeline that are showing tremendous potential.

Of course, we understand that having great products is only part of a winning equation. We also must offer outstanding customer service when it comes to accurately using and stewarding those products in the field. As a result, we have dedicated Seedcare sales and technical support teams who partner with resellers in their local markets to help growers extract the greatest value from our products. We also established The Seedcare Institute^™ in Stanton, Minnesota, where Syngenta experts develop seed treatment formulations that stay on the seed while minimizing dust off. The Stanton location also hosts numerous training sessions each year, so participating resellers can learn how to build better recipes and make more precise on-seed applications.

As the 2019 season comes to a close and the focus shifts to 2020, our goal at Syngenta Seedcare is to supply our customers with the best seed treatments combined with the best service in the industry. After all, they deserve nothing less than our best.
