seed treatment protects young
plants from pests during critical early development stages,
leading to healthier root development and improved vigor.
Already applied on 14 million acres, Poncho/VOTiVO is
a powerful seed treatment for your soybean crop that
prevents damage before pests can strike.
Applied directly to the seed, its systemic agent is
absorbed by new roots immediately, protecting seedlings
and roots from numerous insect pests, including early-
season aphids, overwintering bean leaf beetles, grape
colaspis, seed corn maggots and wireworms.
Poncho/VOTiVO employs a biological mode of action
with a unique bacteria strain that lives and grows with
young roots, creating a living barrier that keeps important
soybean nematodes, including reniform, root-knot and
soybean cyst, from reaching the root.
Poncho/VOTiVO is the perfect companion for soybean
seed with genetic resistance to nematodes. Soybean
cyst nematode (SCN) is the number one pest affecting
yields for soybean growers. It accounts for annual
nationwide losses of more than $1.5 billion. Research
has shown that genetic resistance against soybean
cyst nematode is not complete and an Integrated Pest
Management (IPM) program is required to preserve
the value of SCN-resistant varieties. Poncho/VOTiVO
protects against multiple types of nematodes that cause
damage to young soybean roots, making it an ideal
partner for any IPM program.
PONCHO/VOTiVO ADVANTAGES:
Controls early-season aphids, overwintering bean
leaf beetles and other important early-season insects
common in soybeans.
Systemic mode of action protects the entire plant
during early development, supporting healthier plant
establishment.
Living bacteria grows around roots to prevent nematode
damage from soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and other
significant types of nematodes.
Complements existing SCN-resistant soybean varieties
for even greater protection.
Valuable seed is protected from the moment it is planted.
Promotes higher yields through a healthier root system
and a more vigorous and uniform crop.
GET TREATED. GET GROWING.
