Marrone Bio Introduces New Synergistic Plant Health Product

Marrone Bio Innovations Inc. has announced that Pacesetter, a recently approved bio-based plant health product, is now available to corn, soybean, and wheat growers in the U.S.

Pacesetter acts synergistically with conventional fungicides to improve plant health and vigor, increasing yield by up to seven bushels per acre in soybeans and 13 bushels per acre in corn. The active ingredient in Pacesetter is a plant extract from Reynoutria sachalinensis, a compound that delivers multiple modes of action. When used with conventional fungicides, Pacesetter promotes root growth, and increases chlorophyll production in the crop, resulting in yield increases beyond that of a grower’s standard fungicide program.
