Our new seed treatment recipe includes multiple ingredients working in concert to provide robust protection against a range of key diseases in corn, such as Pythium, Rhizoctonia, Fusarium and head smut. A recent addition to the disease protection offering includes Lumiflex™ fungicide seed treatment, which delivers disease protection to improve your corn’s yield potential and late-season health. Research shows corn treated with Lumiflex fungicide seed treatment produced a yield advantage of 3 bu/A over the previous standard seed treatment and an average yield advantage of 8 bu/A in areas with early season stress.*
Lumivia® insecticide seed treatment delivers a unique mode of action against chewing insects and enhances insecticidal protection against wireworm, white grub, black cutworm, seed corn maggot, grape colaspis and fall armyworm. New to the portfolio of LumiGEN™ technologies, Lumisure™ insecticide seed treatment brings a second mode of action against early season insect pests.
Lumialza™ nematicide seed treatment protects plant roots from nematodes and works with beneficial soil organisms that improve water and nutrient absorption. Lumialza protects your corn seed against a wide range of nematodes, including sting, needle, lance, stubby-root, root-knot, dagger and lesion. Reduced nematode pressure means higher yield potential. Seed treated with Lumialza nematicide yielded an advantage of 3.7 bu/A under low nematode pressure, and up to 9 bu/A under heavier pressure in 2018 research trials.**

Find My Local Team*Seed-applied technology replicated and strip trial data comparing Lumiflex-based recipe to the 2018 seed treatment recipe without Lumiflex. This 2018 data included 212 location comparisons in the overall and 93 locations which were under early season stress.
**Data is based on 10-state broad-acre head-to-head strip trial comparing Lumialza™ nematicide seed treatment vs. non-nematicide seed treatment utilizing the same insecticide and fungicide recipe in seed-applied technology replicated and strip trial data. Yields ranged from 3 to 9 bu/A depending on nematode species and population, in 184 low stress and 54 moderate to high stress locations.
