We’ve worked with local cereal growers for over 20 years to refine our range of herbicides. They’ve been tested and proven across Australian growing regions. And we’re always searching for new solutions to add to the mix. Our herbicide toolbox gives you a variety of ways to control most weeds at each stage of growth. Combine them to develop a weed control strategy that works for your business and your land.

Cereal diseases are a major cause of yield loss for Australian growers, that’s why prevention is a major focus in our R&D. Through in-country testing, we’ve taken globally molecule discoveries and developed a suite of proven fungicides. Our broad portfolio also gives you the option of rotating chemistries to prevent resistance. Simply select the product that will protect your crops from the main diseases in your region.

Syngenta’s Seedcare Institute at Charles Sturt University ensures our seed treatments are adapted to Australian conditions. They can help you protect your crops against early-stage diseases and insect pests. And work from sowing through to establishment. If you want to improve establishment and early vigour, these are tools are well worth your evaluation.

Deciding on your insect control threshold is important. There’s no point in spraying unnecessarily. However, if pest numbers exceed your economic threshold, we have a range of broad-spectrum and pest-specific treatments to consider. Similarly, lodging in cereals can also dramatically reduce yields. Use of our plant growth regulators means you’ll lose less grain, and your cereals will be easier and faster to harvest.
