Growers can start their soybeans off right with a systemic seed treatment such as Gaucho^® seed-applied insecticide. Gaucho is part of the Trilex^® 6000 Soybean System, providing growers six layers of early season protection for their soybean plants.

In addition to systemic protection, Gaucho also protects the plant’s roots by limiting damage caused by seedcorn maggot, soybean aphids and overwintering bean leaf beetle.

For later season control, spray Leverage^® 2.7 insecticide. Leverage 2.7 provides broad-spectrum control and residual protection to protect against sucking and chewing pests.

Leverage 2.7 also provides growers Stress Shield^™ protection from environmental stresses, leading to more vigorous, healthier plants. When crops are protected against stress, they have outstanding yield potential, including strong root growth and greater leaf size, early pod set, increased pod fill and better pod retention.

The remarkable value of Leverage 2.7 with Stress Shield is easy to understand, it is effective against insect pests, makes plants more vigorous, providing higher yield potential and more profit potential.

Soybeans treated with Trilex 6000 followed by Leverage 2.7 can exhibit healthier, larger soybeans, like those shown below in a Brownsburg, Ind., trial. The difference is visually compelling compared to the untreated soybeans on the left side of the sign.
