Syngenta Canada introduces YieldON – a new biostimulant to help drive higher yields in row crops

  • YieldON™ liquid foliar biostimulant helps improve productivity in corn, wheat, and other row crops
  • Enriched by a unique selection of naturally derived ingredients to improve uptake and transportation of sugars throughout the plant
  • Helps improve crop productivity

Syngenta Canada Inc. is pleased to introduce YieldON™, a liquid foliar biostimulant that helps improve crop productivity in cereals, corn, and other row crops.

YieldON combines plant- and seaweed-derived biomolecules, with trace elements of micronutrients manganese, zinc, and molybdenum. This unique combination of ingredients improves cell division and expansion, allowing increased uptake and transport of nutrients and sugars throughout the plant.

“YieldON amplifies the grain-filling processes that crops naturally do when they transition from the vegetative stage to the reproductive stage of their life cycle,” explains Chris Dumigan, Biologicals Technical Lead with Syngenta Canada. “It improves plant cell division and the flow of nutrients from leaf tissue to seeds, which, in turn, can increase crop yields.”

YieldON can be tank mixed with a wide variety of fertilizer and registered foliar pesticides1. For growers looking for a yield boost in their wheat, corn, or other row crops, YieldON is best applied with a planned reproductive-timing fungicide, like Miravis® Ace or Miravis® Era, and fungicides in corn like Miravis® Neo.

YieldON will be available to row crop growers across Canada in time for the 2025 growing season and sold in a 2 x 10 L case and 450 L tote.

What insect threats are Minnesota corn growers facing, and what research is helping farmers stay ahead of them?

At the 2026 MN Ag Expo, University of Minnesota entomologist Fei Yang shared updates on three Minnesota Corn-supported research projects focused on insect monitoring, seed treatments, and pest resistance.

Current work includes statewide monitoring programs that use pheromone, light, and sticky traps to track key pests such as black cutworm, true armyworm, corn earworm, European corn borer, and corn rootworm. Researchers are also evaluating whether high-rate seed treatments provide effective corn rootworm control and studying the development of resistance in European corn borer populations to Bt corn traits.

These projects help researchers better understand pest pressures across Minnesota and provide farmers with practical information to support informed management decisions.
