Syngenta starts ’09 AgriEdge
corn and soybean programs GREENSBORO, N.C. — Syngenta is pleased to announce the 2009 AgriEdge corn and soybean programs, which offer growers even more rewards when they invest in agronomic solutions that can maximize yield performance.
AgriEdge Programs offer incentives for growers who plant NK brand soybeans with the Roundup Ready trait and Garst, Golden Harvest or NK Seeds corn hybrids with one or more Agrisure traits, and apply Syngenta Crop Protection products.
Early-season weed control is a major focus of the 2009 AgriEdge Corn Program, with an incentive of $8.40 (based on a planting rate of 2.8 acres per unit) per unit available to growers who use Lumax, Lexar, Halex GT, Camix, Bicep II Magnum or Bicep Lite II Magnum residual herbicides on at least 36 units of corn hybrids that contain an Agrisure trait and Cruiser Extreme 250 or Cruiser Extreme 1250 seed treatment.
Additional AgriEdge Corn Program incentives are available for using Touchdown Total, Touchdown HiTech or Callisto herbicides, Quilt fungicide and/or Force 3G or Force CS insecticides.
A key highlight of the 2009 AgriEdge Soybean Program is a $5 per unit incentive (based on a planting rate of 1.2 units per acre) specifically for growers who plant a minimum of 120 units of NK brand soybeans treated with a CruiserMaxx Beans brand insecticide/fungicide seed treatment. Additional incentives are available for using Prefix pre-emergence herbicide, Touchdown Total or Touchdown HiTech glyphosate herbicides and/or Quadris fungicide.
Growers should consult the 2009 AgriEdge Program Use Guide for complete information on qualification, program details and redemption.
