CruiserMaxx Beans Seed Treatment
  

What is it > Overview
 
Click here to view a video featuring the benefits of CruiserMaxx BeansA CruiserMaxx® Beans brand is an insecticide and fungicide seed treatment combination that provides soybean growers with first-class protection against harmful insects and diseases that negatively affect crop quality and yield. The first commercial insecticide/fungicide seed treatment combination on the market for soybeans, CruiserMaxx Beans protects seeds and seedlings against a wide range of yield-threatening insects and diseases to help increase stand and vigor, promote earlier canopy closure and improve yield.

Supplying protection from the moment the seed is planted, CruiserMaxx Beans provides a larger window of time to scout for insect infestations, and reduces the threat of damage from insect populations already present in the field and from insects that move into the field from adjacent fields or areas. CruiserMaxx Beans may also decrease the spread of insect-transmitted viruses by reducing the amount and duration of insect feeding. Maximum soybean yields are often achieved with a combination of CruiserMaxx Beans seed treatment and a foliar application of Warrior with Zeon Technology® insecticide later in the season.
