Zironar® biofungicide/bionematicide

Zironar biofungicide/bionematicide mitigates disease stress by providing protection against Rhizoctonia solani and Fusarium spp. as well as season-long challenges like lesion nematodes and root knot nematodes. It provides an additive benefit to nematicide, fungicide or synthetic seed treatment products when corn is struggling with plant stressors.

The spore-based product is triggered by seed germination and colonizes roots, creating a chemical and physical barrier. This creates a biofilm that consumes root exudates and competes to exclude other soil microbes. Improves root health for enhanced vigor, which is especially beneficial under periods of drought.

Zironar biofungicide/bionematicide also provides an extended period of protection beyond what is typically achieved by standard seed treatment packages and is shelf stable for two years, making it an excellent tool to biologically enhance plant performance.

Trials show improved plant vigor, and more robust root branching. Increased root branching also helps to improve water use efficiency during periods of drought.  Field trials have shown to help increase corn yields by an average of a 5 bu./A.
