  1. Combining the proven technology of Force with the newly introduced corn rootworm (RW) trait technology offers an enhanced corn yield opportunity • Trials indicate a significant return on investment – 12.9 bu/A average* can be achieved from combining technologies • An understanding of when and where to use these tools is required to make good decisions • One of the largest ROI opportunities for corn growers today Force® Insecticide on TraitMaximum Corn Potential Bob Kacvinsky, Technical Support Representative, Syngenta Crop Protection *12.9 bu/A average yield increase based on 22 independent trials in IL, 2007. Force 3G and Force CS are Restricted Use Pesticides.

  2. SD WY NE KS Corn Rootworm 2008 • Rapid expansion of RW has occurred • Results in intensification in pressure • Early-season pests add to control needs RW area of activity Intense RW expansion *Map areas based on NAPIS and state data Intense historical RW pressure Force 3G and Force CS are Restricted Use Pesticides.

  3. Current RW-traited corn is low-dose – resulting in noticeable larvae feeding in trait alone RW has proven extremely adaptable RW trait corn does not provide control of early-season/ secondary pests No Single Perfect Solution • The absence of early-season pest control opens the window for rapid population growth of previously considered “secondary pests” Force 3G and Force CS are Restricted Use Pesticides.

  4. RW trait offers a powerful and convenient tool to controlling RW across the Corn Belt Pairing this power with the convenience and spectrum of a Cruiser Extreme® brand seed treatment offers a broad range of control under most conditions When higher populations exist, a higher level of control is desired, or when the pest spectrum is broader than is addressed with these tools, Force insecticide delivers the advantage of: Seed Genetics RW Trait Seed Treatment Force Insecticide The Force “Field Advantage” • Proven performance (second to none) • Ease of handling (2 formulations) • Choices in formulation and handling • #1 rated product for 20 years • Assured and backed by Syngenta Force 3G and Force CS are Restricted Use Pesticides.

  5. The Force on Trait Advantage YieldGard RW Alone + YieldGard® RW Force 3G and Force CS are Restricted Use Pesticides.

  6. Economic advantage 70% of the time Breakeven @ $5/bu corn The Force “Field Advantage” Over-trait applications resulted in a 12.9 bu/A average increase 22 trials in Illinois, 2007 Force 3G and Force CS are Restricted Use Pesticides.

  7. A check in one or more boxes may indicate a treatment of Force insecticide, in addition to trait, would be a benefit Is there heavy RW pressure? Do I need to manage insects with multiple modes of action? Is there potential for early-season weed competition? (Pest population growth accelerates in early weed cover) Are past wireworm pressures a concern? Is there a history of grape colaspis? Do I plan to plant early? Is there heavy white grub pressure? Are cutworms a threat? Where does Force on Trait Fit? ©2008 Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc. Greensboro, NC 27409.
