Customized Protection: Seed Treatment Options for You and Your Farm

Maximizing yields and increasing your farm’s profitability are high on your priority list as a producer. 

And when you plant LG Seeds, you’re off to a great start in reaching those goals.

But giving your seed an extra “oomph” can make the difference between a good yield and a true bumper crop.

And that’s where our seed treatments come in.

So, why seed treatment?

We’re glad you asked. 

Protecting What You Plant

From the moment your seed is planted, it engages in an immediate fight against pests and diseases that threaten to hamper its genetic potential. These enemies may include:

  • Nematodes
  • Soil-borne diseases (harmful fungi)
  • Damaging insects
  • Nutrient deficiencies

At LG Seeds, we recognize these threats to your investment and offer a variety of seed treatment options that fight against these adversaries.

LG Seeds Seed Treatment Options

They give you the tools to combat the unique threats on your farm, thus helping you:

  • Protect your crop from adverse weather conditions
  • Alleviate your concerns about seed emergence
  • Get an earlier start on planting
  • Reduce replanting issues
  • Maximize yield potential and your return on investment

Corn Treatments

From fungicides to insecticides, and nematicides to nutrient packages, LG Seeds offers a host of proven treatments that will boost performance while fighting off early-season diseases and pests in your corn fields. 

Our Acceleron® and Acceleron® Poncho®/VOTiVO® options provide the solutions that best meet the needs of your farm, including essential early-season disease protection, biological protection from nematodes, and enhanced protection from a wide variety of insects.

Furthermore, our AgriShield® ST and AgriShield® MAX treatments offer you even more customized solutions with early-season disease protection and Cruiser® insecticide included in both options. 

And if your farm needs something extra, our AgriShield® MAX offers top-notch nematode protection and a yield-boosting zinc nutrient package.

Soybean Protection

Like your seed corn, your soybeans face in-field challenges, and our AgriShield® soybean treatment options stand ready to fight for your yields.

AgriShield® PLUS combines proven fungicides and insecticides to fight against early-season diseases and a host of above- and below-ground insects—promoting emergence and getting your soybeans off to a great start.

Along with those benefits, our AgriShield® MAX with Saltro® provides your soybeans with protection against nematodes and SDS, as well as an impressive 200+ day inoculant that increases nodule development, providing the opportunity for more nitrogen fixation in your plants.

Sorghum Options

Regardless of your crop rotation methods, LG Seeds is here to help.

And that includes providing you with our AgriShield® treatment options for your sorghum crop.

AgriShield® ST gives your sorghum the early-season disease protection it needs to improve root development, thus increasing water and nutrient uptake.

AgriShield® PLUS offers that same toolkit, along with protection against insects and herbicide injury caused by crop sensitivity to S-metolachlor.

And AgriShield® MAX? It offers the benefits of our other products while improving seedling vigor and providing tolerance against drought, cold, heat, and nutrient stress.
