Protect Your Winter Wheat Investment with the Right Seed Treatment
As winter wheat planting approaches, protecting your seed from day one is one of the best investments you can make. A quality seed treatment protects germination, promotes strong seedling establishment, and provides protection against the diseases and insects that can threaten your crop before it even emerges.
Vibrance® Flexi combines four different modes of action to deliver broad-spectrum protection against many of the most common soil-borne and seed-borne diseases affecting winter wheat.
- Difenoconazole and Mefenoxam help control pythium damping-off, common bunt, Karnal bunt, loose smut, flag smut, seed-borne Septoria, general seed rot, Rhizoctonia root rot, and take-all.
- Fludioxonil protects against seed-borne and soil-borne fungi that cause seed decay, damping-off, seedling blight, and pink snow mold.
- Sedazane provides additional protection from seed decay, seedling blight, and damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia solani.
For even greater early-season protection, you can add Crusier® 5FS (thiamethoxam) to the treatment. Crusier helps protect emerging seedlings from insect pests such as aphids, greenbugs, Hessian fly, and others, reducing early feeding damage and giving young plants the opportunity to establish strong, healthy root systems.
A strong stand begins with healthy seed. By investing in a complete seed treatment package, you’re helping protect your crop through the winter while setting the stage for improved emergence, vigor, and yield potential next season.
