Enhancing Plant Physiology: Why is it important to growers?

Enhancing Plant Physiology

Numerous corn and soybean fungicides in the Syngenta portfolio provide four key physiological benefits to growers including:

  • Broad-spectrum disease control
  • Enhanced CO2 assimilation allows plants to use the sun’s energy more efficiently for greater growth
  • Increased water use efficiency slows transpiration to help the plant retain water, which improves drought tolerance
  • Enhanced green leaf area maximizes growth and yield development

These four physiological benefits work together to ultimately provide growers with a greater return on investment. When physiological processes in plants are enhanced or optimized, the output is greater and more beneficial to yields/growers.

Over the next few posts, I will provide additional information and details about each of these benefits, and how they can positively impact your crops.
