Seed Treatments for Managing Sudden Death Syndrome in Soybeans
This presentation explores how seed treatments can be an effective tool for managing sudden death syndrome (SDS) in soybeans. We'll examine the latest seed treatment technologies, their impact on reducing SDS symptoms, and how they can fit into an integrated disease management plan. By protecting seeds from the start, farmers can improve plant health and yield potential in SDS-prone fields.
