Nufarm is pleased to announce the launch of Saxony™ 100 FS, providing the broad-spectrum protection of azoxystrobin in a concentrated seed treatment formulation. Saxony’s proven preventive and curative activity curbs costly seed and seedling disease, including Pythium damping-off, Rhizoctonia seedling blight, Fusarium, Aspergillus and more.
Saxony offers efficacy across four fungal classes: Deuteromycetes, Oomycetes, Ascomycetes, and Basidiomycetes, and works in combination with Spirato® and Sebring® products for enhanced performance against Pythium species. The formulation is highly stable across a range of storage conditions, has an excellent seed safety profile, and is compatible with a wide range of seed treatment products.
“The launch of Saxony is the latest example of Nufarm’s commitment to delivering cost-effective disease protection solutions to farmers,” says Michael Burbach, Customer & Brand Marketing Manager for Nufarm. “The addition of an azoxystrobin formulation for seed treatment strengthens our already robust portfolio for corn, cotton and sunflowers.”
Saxony is available exclusively from Nufarm-authorized distributors and is available for purchase in 30 registered states, including AL, DE, FL, GA, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MI, MN, MO, MS, MT, NC, ND, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, TN, UT, VA, WI, WV, and WY, with more states to follow.
