WatchDog seed protection system provides a safe, effective, affordable, worry-free way of controlling many insect and disease problems throughout the entire season. WatchDog will automatically be applied to ALL traited hybrids and will be available for conventional hybrids at an additional charge. (WatchDog treatment is not available for retirement hybrids unless they were previously treated.)

The WatchDog system begins with high germination seed with exceptional vigor and cold tolerance. Then, all that superior quality is protected with the best fungicides and seed applied insectcides available.

WatchDog delivers significant benefits

Safety... of utmost importance. Physically handling planter box treatments and granular or liquid chemicals can be hazardous to your health.

Convenience... comes with not having to purchase seperate pesticides, handle extra materials or worry about disposing of containers. WatchDog protection is already on the seed when you get it. you won't see it, and you won't touch it.

Effectiveness... perfect application of chemicals on the seed gives you the best protection. No more worry about rates, moisture and field conditions to make it work. It always works.

Protection... against many diseases and insects. A combination of three fungicides will control virtually all soil-borne diseases, while the insecticide component will provide unmatched protections against most secondary insect pests.

Put the WatchDog on gaurd in all your fields

WatchDog Plus (the high rate) will control all of the same insects as WatchDog low rate, along with Corn Rootworm at moderate infestation levels and Southern Billbug. the WatchDog protection system utilizes the latest seed applied insecticide technologies.

WatchDog Soy which is powered by CruiserMaxx Pak, will increase plant stand, uniformity, vigor, speed to canopy and YIELD. WatchDog Soy provides the widest spectrum of disease protection for soybeans against Pythium, early season Phytophthora, Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, seed borne Sclerotinia, seed borne Phomopsis and general seed rots. WatchDog Soy also has excellent activity against a broad spectrum of insect pests like Soybean aphid, Bean leaf beetle, Seed corn maggot, and Wireworm which will reduce virus incidence and transmission.

ApronMaxx Fungicide A combination of Apron XL® and Maxim®, ApronMaxx® brand fungicide offers the widest range of disease control for soybeans. ApronMaxx provides excellent broad-spectrum protection against all major seed-borne and soil-borne disease pathogens such as Pythium, Phytophthora, Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, seed-borne Sclerotinia, seed-borne Phomopsis and other general seed rots. ApronMaxx helps protect crop investments by protecting germination and vigor, therefore enabling soybean growers to avoid replanting costs and maximize yield potential.

Optimize is unique because of LCO (lipochitooligosaccharide) Promoter Technology — a patented, naturally occurring molecule that activates the cascades of identified plant genes within the plant. This activity begins cell division and growth in both the root and shoot immediately and independent of soil conditions. This early-season activity advances soybean plant development, resulting in stronger, healthier plants that are better able to handle environmental stress throughout the season.
