Syngenta’s TYMIRIUM® technology secures regulatory approval in Argentina

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 26 (Bernama) -- Syngenta, one of the world’s leading agriculture companies, announced its TYMIRIUM® technology has received regulatory approval in Argentina.

The technology will bring farmers closer to accessing the novel nematicide and fungicide for both seed and soil uses, which is highly effective even at low use rates.

According to a statement, TYMIRIUM® technology provides long-lasting protection against invisible yet highly destructive nematodes and soil-borne diseases – particularly the Fusarium species.

Key benefits include its ability to safeguard plant roots from attack, translocate to above-ground parts of the plant and protect against early season diseases. Simple to apply, it is also highly compatible with a wide range of other crop inputs.

“The development of TYMIRIUM® technology required an investment of over 10 years to bring it from discovery to market – a clear example of Syngenta’s commitment to addressing farming needs,” said the president of Global Crop Protection Jeff Rowe.

Farmers using TYMIRIUM® technology further benefit from its ability to preserve soil biodiversity and soil health. A protected, stronger root system supports soil structure and soil organic matter enhances nutrient use efficiency, and improves crop resilience to both biotic and abiotic stress.

Highly selective, TYMIRIUM® technology has minimal impact on beneficial insects, pollinators, and soil biodiversity.

Products containing TYMIRIUM® technology will be launched in over 100 crops and in more than 60 countries worldwide, under various trademarks in the coming years.
