A Novel Approach to Cucurbit Protection<strong>FarMore</strong> Technology includes a seed company orseed technology provider applied combination of thefollowing separately registered seed protection productsand protocols delivered directly on the vegetable seed.FUNGICIDESApron XL ® (mefenoxam)Maxim ® 4FS (fludioxonil)Dynasty ® (azoxystrobin)INSECTICIDECruiser ® 5FS(thiamethoxam)The key to success of this on-seed approach is thedisease and insect barrier created around the seed atplanting and during germination, which wards off anychallenge that may be caused by the pathogens orpest in the soil or on the seed. With this approach, thegrower is not required to play “catch-up”, which canbe ineffective and very expensive. The use of <strong>FarMore</strong><strong>FI400</strong> <strong>Cucurbits</strong> technology may also, in some cases,eliminate the need for one early foliar spray.<strong>FarMore</strong> <strong>FI400</strong> <strong>Cucurbits</strong> technology providescucumber, melon, pumpkin and squash growerswith consistent performance to enhance seedlingemergence, maximize plant stand establishment,stimulate early-season vigor and plant health, andprotect yield potential.Protection Against Cucumber BeetlesAlive and Dead: Striped and Spotted Cucumber BeetlesVlaspik CucumbersStriped and Spotted Cucumber Beetles2520151050.06.21.8Live-33 DAPSource: Syngenta Trials, E.
