Reliable Partners

The resiliency of American growers is exceptional. Market fluctuations, unpredictable weather and unresolved policy decisions are no match for their grit and determination.

Part of their strength stems from alliances with trusted farm advisers in their communities. Understandably, the lower commodity prices of 2015 have elevated the value of these partnerships and are making return on investment a critical component of almost every input growers consider.

We at Syngenta proudly join our reseller network in giving growers the tools and advice they need to make informed decisions that will help their farms succeed. A unique differentiator that separates Syngenta from other suppliers is our total-acre portfolio. Its breadth and depth enable us to engage in conversations about whole-farm productivity, not just single-product discussions around one pest. Our variety of brand offerings also empowers each grower to select the right Syngenta technology at the right price point for his or her individual farm.

Looking ahead, our robust pipeline will give them even more innovations to choose. This website previews the promising Solatenol™ fungicides, with registrations pending on a variety of vegetable, specialty and row crops.

Another game-changing solution that is already bringing incremental value to agriculture is Enogen® corn enzyme technology. In the article “Field to Fuel,” you’ll read how Syngenta bioengineered this corn to make the ethanol manufacturing process more effective and efficient with less impact on the environment, which ultimately benefits us all.

Of course, a whole-farm approach encompasses more than just products. It also includes service that binds multipronged solutions into one cohesive program. AgriEdge Excelsior® from Syngenta is such a program. As described in “The Leading Edge,” it combines the strength of our portfolio with data-rich software and on-farm technical advice. Now available nationwide, this powerful program can help growers model their farming operations and understand the triggers that help drive yields and profits.

This season, even though the economic forecast calls for a few clouds, history tells us that swings in the market, up and down, are typical. In the short term, count on reliable partners like Syngenta to help provide the solutions needed to manage farms wisely. And in the long term, look for a silver lining, because the global demand for what American agriculture produces is vast.
