It’s been a busy week for Syngenta’s seed care business.
周二，该公司在明尼苏达州斯坦顿的先正达北美种子护理研究所破土动工，扩建 $2000 万美元，昨天，在 $1120 万美元的扩建后，该公司为其研发和种子生产设施举行了盛大的重新开放仪式在加州伍德兰
据该公司称，林地是重要的谷物、玉米和蔬菜研发以及蔬菜种子生产的所在地，主要生产葫芦。
“Agriculture is a source of stability and strength in the California economy,” Houston said. “That’s why private investments in research and development, like the one we are celebrating here today, are so important. With 80,500 farms and ranches, California agriculture is a $46.4 billion dollar industry that generates at least $100 billion in related economic activity. This enormous achievement is possible through a combination of tradition and innovation that has secured California’s status as the most productive agricultural state for more than 50 years, thanks to communities like Woodland and companies like Syngenta.”

种子处理剂是一种化学或生物物质，通常是杀真菌剂或杀虫剂，在播种前以少量且精确的量施用于种子外部。它有助于保护种子免受土壤中的昆虫和疾病的侵害，从而使种子有一个强壮、健康的开端。它有助于形成强壮的根系——这是健康、高产植物的基础。
“This expansion in Stanton further underscores Syngenta’s investment in innovation and commitment to our Seedcare customers,” said Tim Kroenke, head of Syngenta’s Seedcare business in North America. “This is an exciting time in the seed treatment industry, the Stanton community, and the state of Minnesota.”
