Nufarm Americas Inc. announces the receipt of expanded
federal EPA registration for its Senator™ 600 FS seed treatment
product.
Introduced into the North American market in 2007, Senator™ 600
FS delivers a 5-pound per gallon imidacloprid formulation proven
to be highly effective against a broad variety of sucking and
chewing pests destructive to corn, cotton, sorghum, soybean,
cereals, and other crops.
With the receipt of the recent extended EPA registration,
application approval for Senator™ 600 FS is broadened within the
oil seed crop group to include Sunflower, Flax, Safflower,
Borage and Crambe. The crop additions expand the brand’s utility
among seed companies and seed treaters by offering a single,
highly effective insecticide with tremendous cross-crop
application capabilities.
“Our goal for Senator™ 600 FS was to introduce a proven
insecticide product with enhanced formulation and usage that
could provide greater inventory convenience for dealers and
treaters,” commented Tim Stoehr, Nufarm’s Director of Sales,
Seed Treatment. ”The expansion of uses within the oil seed crop
group, and the brand’s 2 x 2.5 gallon case pack and 15 gallon
drum offerings further broaden Senator™ 600 FS’s utility and
convenience for our customers.”
