Crop Protection
Crop protection is the collection of tools, products, and practices farmers use to defend their crops against weeds, insects, and disease. Farmers around the world make multiple decisions each day regarding how best to protect their crops. Weeds steal water, sunlight, and nutrients from crops. Insects and disease can also have a devastating impact on food production. Fortunately, advances in modern agriculture have provided them with a variety of solutions for the task.
There is no single approach in the crop protection fight. Farmers today have a variety of tools, including state-of-the-art pesticides, advanced data analytics, and precision technologies. While these tools are individually powerful, when farmers use them together, it enhances their effectiveness while minimizing the environmental impact of agriculture.
Using technology for precise agriculture
Farming today is more complex than ever before. The unpredictability of the weather, control of pest and weeds, market price development, scarcity of natural resources, all this in a world heading toward 9 billion people. These challenges demand BASF to continue its commitment to creating innovative solutions for growers, supporting them with the task of nurturing a hungry planet.
As an industry leader with a broad portfolio of fungicides, insecticides, herbicides and seed treatments, BASF helps farmers to sustainably increase the yields and the quality of their crops. By nurturing a culture of innovation in alignment with customers’ needs, our technologies aim to ensure that crops grow healthier, stronger and more resistant to stress factors, such as heat or drought.

What crop protection solutions does Monsanto offer farmers?
Pesticides are products that protect plants from all pests—weeds, insects, and disease. With innovations like glyphosate, the primary active ingredient in the Roundup® brand of agricultural herbicides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), agricultural biologicals such as microbials, and digital tools like Climate FieldView™, we’re helping farmers defend their crops against pests, increase yields, improve soil health, and protect our natural resources like water.
Syngenta offering integrated crop solutions, from expert agronomic advice and best management practices to cutting edge technology and scientific innovation designed to help Canadian growers produce robust yields and high-quality crops.
Field Scouting
Field scouting is an important part of cropping system and farm management. Ongoing monitoring of felds and crops throughout the growing season and beyond, allows a producer to identify issues and apply remediation in a timely manner to minimize negative economic impact, while improving feld operation efciencies. Some problems cannot be addressed when observed, but the information can still be recorded for future use.

Our Commitment to You
Soil testing plays an important role in crop production and nutrient management. On farms that use commercial fertilizer as the main nutrient source, it is the best way to plan for profitable fertilizer applications.
On livestock farms, knowing how much nutrient is present in the soil to start with is critical.
Only then can a nutrient management plan be developed to properly manage both the nutrients that have been generated on-farm and any nutrients that are being imported to the property as biosolids or commercial fertilizer.
