In both controlled environments and field trials with SDS and SCN present, soybeans treated with Saltro® fungicide seed treatment have significantly healthier root mass than soybeans treated with ILEVO® seed treatment.*
Both Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) and soybean cyst nematode (SCN) can cause substantial yield losses. Understanding the life cycles of SDS and SCN is an important step toward knowing how to manage the risks associated with these potentially costly pests. Check out this infographic from Syngenta for more information.
