Key benefits
- Long-lasting protection simplifies in-crop disease management
- Promotes stronger root development and increases green leaf area
- Systiva treatment has been shown to produce consistently bigger yields in spring and autumn plantings
How it works
After sowing Systiva® is quickly taken up and evenly distributed within the whole plant. Its innovative, powerful SDHI active ingredient is transported into the growing roots and leaves for an extended period, ensuring long-lasting control of a broad-spectrum of fungal diseases. So Systiva protects the cereal seed against seed-borne and soil-borne diseases, then goes on to protect the young plant against foliar diseases. That longer-lasting and more comprehensive disease control gives treated plants a stronger start to the season and makes them more resistant to a range of environmental stresses, resulting in healthier crops and bigger yields. That’s what makes Systiva so unique.
