Concept III 960 EC

Reliable Protection for Sorghum Crops

When cultivating sorghum, agronomists often face a critical dilemma: how to effectively eliminate weeds without harming the crop itself. Concept III 960 EC from Syngenta solves this problem by acting as a seed safener. This specialized solution allows the use of S-metolachlor-based herbicides without the risk of phytotoxicity to sorghum seeds.

Technological Features

The preparation is based on the active ingredient fluxofenim. Its purpose is to activate the seed's internal defense mechanisms, making it resistant to the effects of herbicides that would otherwise damage sensitive sprouts. Using this agent acts as an insurance policy for your crop right from the seed preparation stage.

• Application Method: Professional seed treatment before sowing.
• Efficiency: The application rate is less than 0.5 L/t, making it highly cost-effective for large-scale operations.
• Safety: Hazard class 2 requires standard precautions when handling agricultural chemicals.

The practical use case is straightforward: the product is applied to sorghum seeds, creating a barrier that allows farmers to control weeds with herbicides even before the crop emerges. This relieves competitive pressure during the early stages of vegetation, when sorghum is most vulnerable. A single treatment is sufficient to provide protection during the critical period of seedling development.
