According to the company's Trade Marketing Manager, Carlos Amadeu, the brand's presence on the field day is anchored in a portfolio of strategic products for seed treatment and adequate management of weeds, caterpillars and diseases in soybean crops. and corn.

According to Amadeu, in the area of ​​weeds, Nufarm highlights the products ZethaMaxx and Crucial.

In the area of ​​pest control, Nufarm takes to the C.Vale Field Day the insecticide for treating Inside FS corn seeds, one of the items on the SeedProtection platform. “The product acts to control the green-bellied stink bug and the corn leafhopper”, adds Carlos Amadeu.

Another highlight of the company at the event, in the area of ​​insecticides, is the Compact product, for controlling the caterpillar complex in soybean, corn and cotton crops. According to Amadeu, it is a tool for problem caterpillars such as Spodoptera frugiperda.
