1.5-bushel yield boost with Cruiser Maxx, guaranteed

Syngenta guarantees a yield boost from its Cruiser Maxx seed treatment for cereals. In a news release, Colin Bletsky, seed care sales manager with Syngenta Crop Protection Canada, says,  “Regardless of pest pressure, independent trials and scientific research indicate that growers are likely to see a significant return on their seed care investment, through improved stand, increased plant health and higher yields.  When pests are present the results can be even more dramatic."

To qualify...

Cereal growers from Western Canada who qualify for the guarantee program are required to plant at least 160 acres of wheat or barley, with a minimum of 10 acres of untreated seed and the rest with seeds treated with Cruiser Maxx Cereals. Yield from the treated and untreated areas will be harvested separately using a yield monitor or weigh wagon to measure the results.

Syngenta guarantees that participants will see a minimum 1.5 bushel per acre yield increase with the treated seeds versus the untreated seeds.  Any grower who doesn’t experience at least a 1.5-bushel yield increase will be reimbursed for the cost of the Dividend XL RTA portion of the Cruiser Maxx Cereals seed treatment up to a maximum of $5,000. Participation is limited.
