Changing Perspectives in Soybean Seed Treatment Heartland Coop & Syngenta
Historically, Use of Soybean Seed Treatment Has Been Low Relative to Other Crops
ASTA-SOY-LZ.PPT [Z:\MATTHEWS] 2
The Primary Use of Seed Treatments Has Been to Provide an Inexpensive Insurance Against Seed Rots and Damping Off Caused by Soil Fungi
ASTA-SOY-LZ.PPT [Z:\MATTHEWS] 3
Current issues in soybeans vs. 1990 No-till
or minimum-till acres increasing – cooler soil conditions, more residue for diseases
Earlier
planting – cooler conditions, seedling in soil for longer periods of time, putting seedling to the test for emergence Technology
Fees – higher seed cost per acre, higher costs to
replant New
races of Phytophthora – genetics don’t offer resistance for all races
ASTA-SOY-LZ.PPT [Z:\MATTHEWS] 4
Have you ever planted seed corn WITHOUT a fungicide seed treatment? Have you ever planted soybeans WITH a fungicide seed treatment?
Why Growers want Treated Soybeans Yield Protection Allow for earlier planting Disease protection Conservation tillage Improve germination Improve early season vigor Earlier canopy – better weed control Protect high value seed Avoid replanting costs Excellent return on investment Protect against adverse weather & growing

Optimum Soil Temperature for Disease Development Pythium
50-60 degrees F - early planting, no-till, cool weather conditions after planting
Phytophthora
72-80 F – warmer soil and heavier soil conditions with poor drainage
Rhizoctonia Fusarium
70-80 F – warmer soil, wet or dry
60 F – cooler soil
What
is the probability that you will plant soybeans in soil temperatures between 50 and 80 degrees F?
Do
you know what the soil conditions will be between the time you plant and when the soybean seedling emerges? ASTA-SOY-LZ.PPT [Z:\MATTHEWS] 10

The longer the seed stays in soil, there is a higher probability of interacting with a seed-borne or soil-borne disease.
