An online tool from Syngenta will add a new layer of disease management and planning support. Enhancements to boostyouybushels.com will let farmers make informed choices toward better health for corn, soybean, and wheat crops.
It is also adding a disease identification guide that deals with disease identification, signs, symptoms, and potential solutions.
“It really is a one-stop shop for everything growers may need to learn about a disease and their fungicide applications for the year,” Logan Romines, a Syngenta fugicide product lead, said in a news release. “They can see what diseases are of concern in their area as well as the identifying factors of those diseases.”. “If they’re not exactly sure which disease they’re looking at, then the guide can help them confirm what the disease is, and what actions to take to protect their yield.”
Under the new site, there are local fungicide trial results and a return on investment calculator.
“Every season brings along a different set of unpredictable in-season challenges, but knowing which fungicide performs best on your acre helps defend your bottom line,” Tyler Harp, Fungicide Technical Product Lead at Syngenta, said in a news release. “In our online tools, by logging in, you’ll be able to see the advantages of using certain Cleaner & Greener fungicides that offer unique Adepidyn and Solatenol technologies and calculate how those benefits will bring in the results at the end of the season to make a confident decision.”
