SEED CORN TREATMENTS A critical tool for most farmers in ensuring early-season seedling survival and growth, seed treatments protect your genetic investment. They provide insurance against soil-borne insects and diseases that can reduce yield even before the plant emerges in the spring. Maizex offers a variety of seed treatment options to match your field situation, from untreated seed to fully treated seed with an insecticide and a full range of fungicides to control tough soil-borne diseases. Options Untreated Option for organic production. Fungicide Only Fungicide + Insecticide or Acceleron® Corn Maximize your corn’s potential with superior protection and choose the Acceleron® package that’s right for your field. The fungicide-only option offers control or suppression of Pythium, Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, Phomopsis, Aspergillus, and Penicillium, while the insecticide option provides added protection against wireworm, white grubs, and seed corn maggots. Lumiante™ Lumiante™ fungicide seed treatment provides enhanced protection against Pythium, is effective at low application rates, and offers balanced translocation to protect plants. Fortenza® Vibrance® Cinco The diamide insecticide Fortenza® provides critical early-season protection with control of European chafer, wireworm, and cutworm. When mixed with the fungicide Vibrance® Cinco, the result is a comprehensive solution with added control of seed- and soil-borne pathogens, such as Pythium, Rhizoctonia, and Fusarium, as well as weakly pathogenic fungi such as Aspergillus and Penicillium. Stamina™ Stamina™ fungicide seed treatment delivers effective protection against seed rot caused by Rhizoctonia solani, resulting in more consistent and uniform emergence for maximum yield potential. Seedling vigour is increased both above and below ground, including under colder than normal soil conditions, with an enhanced ability to withstand minor environmental stress. 10
