Why
consider FarMore™ D300?
Prior to
FarMore™ D 300 , there has been a lack of focus or
investment in vegetables from seed treatment manufacturers due to:
No proven
business models to capture value.
Liability
associated with high value seed/crop.
Complexity
of channel, seed enhancement options and practices
within a crop.
Growers, seed
companies, seed technology providers and dealers are now
receptive to new products and approaches with new seed
treatment products.
Areas
of concern with Thiram |
Skin
and eye irritant.
Breathing Thiram can irritate the nose and throat.
Alcohol interactions.
Irritant of respiratory mucous membrane.
Repeated exposure may affect kidneys, liver and
thyroid. |
Thiram, the
most widely used seed treatment in vegetables is carefully
watched and has several drawbacks:
Cancellation of uses in apples and strawberries.
Cancellation of on-farm seed treatment uses in peanuts.
Cancellation of all turf application for turf grown for
sale.
Cancellation of the aerial and hand/spoon application of
granular application.
New risk
mitigation is required as described by RED.
Updated
worker protection standards.

Thiram: Re-registration Update (EPA February 2005)
-
Products
containing Thiram are eligible for re-registration

reproductive systems.
