Vegetation Management
The control of weeds in lakes and waterways, along oil or gas pipelines and around power facilities is essential for safety, visibility and accessibility. It can be achieved by environmentally friendly chemical means, such as used in modern forestry production programs.
The Syngenta vegetation management portfolio delivers high-level performance for railways, highways, utilities, industrial sites, pipelines and general forestry. It has a role to play in habitat management, the control of non-native species, improvement of pasture and ranges and conservation reserve and compliance areas (CRP).
Consumer Lawn and Garden
Products which are purchased by hobby gardeners for the control of pests on indoor, outdoor and balcony plants, and for the lawn and garden to be applied to trees, flowers, fruits, vegetables, paths and hedges.
In Europe our partnership with the leading garden company Compo generated its first product launch: AXORIS® is an innovative combination of a fertilizer with our insecticide thiomethoxam, applied directly into the soil of potted plants via a spike. The launch of this product in Germany was highly successful. Syngenta continues to strengthen its position in Lawn and Garden through further partnerships. In the important UK gardening market, there is collaboration with Westland, starting with RESOLVA 24H® the first new non-selective herbicide in gardening for many years. In Japan, our recently agreed partnership with Fumakilla strengthens our position in another large consumer gardening market.
In Switzerland Syngenta markets its gardening range under the leading brand MAAG products.
