Chemtura’s RANCONA Pinnacle seed treatment receives EPA approval

Chemtura® has received Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) registration for RANCONA® Pinnacle, an innovative new seed treatment and the latest addition to the unique family of RANCONA seed amendments. RANCONA Pinnacle gives growers the ability to access all the distinctive seed and seedling disease protective features of RANCONA in a ready-to-use product for wheat and barley seed.

RANCONA Pinnacle is proven to be highly efficacious against a majority of seed and soil-borne fungi which cause seed decay, damping-off and seedling blight in the plant pathogenic fungal classes of Zygomycetes, Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Fungi Imperfect (Deuteromycetes).

RANCONA Pinnacle contains ipconazole, a triazole fungicide, which is the same active ingredient in RANCONA 3.8 FS. To complement the performance advantage of ipconazole, RANCONA Pinnacle also contains metalaxy for pythium protection-all in a convenient, ready-to-use formulation.

RANCONA Pinnacle is a microdispersion formulation which is specially designed for cereal crops. It features an extremely low viscosity, which is much thinner than other flowable crop protection products.

This superior formulation has minimal sediment and is easier to use. RANCONA Pinnacles formulation versatility means it handles well during the application process under a wide range of temperatures and conditions. It provides good seed coloration, low dust, uniform coverage and excellent flowability of treated seeds.

"RANCONA has proven to be an outstanding crop protection tool for wheat, combining excellent control of a range of important seed and soil-borne diseases including true loose smut and Fusarium seedling blight, as well as foot rots with improved stand establishment which can equate to higher yields," said Mike McFatrich, North American Business Lead for Seed Enhancements, Chemtura. "With the inclusion of pythium protection, RANCONA Pinnacle provides a convenient and complete package of disease protection for wheat and barley growers."

"The introduction of RANCONA Pinnacle, RANCONA 3.8 FS and the recent registration of RANCONA Summit provides growers with options to traditional seed treatment products for cereals, soybeans and dry beans in a convenient, user-friendly format that takes seed and seedling protection to a higher performance level," added McFatrich. "And these products deliver protection in a manner that creates an exceptional value for the grower."

The recent introductions of these new seed treatment technologies are intended to provide product choices to meet the flexible treating requirements for growers producing these targeted crops and the dealers who service those growers.
