How does Seedcare work?

A treated seed combines plant genetics and a high-technology coating which protects the seed in the ground from early-stage diseases, insects and nematodes. While the Romans soaked seeds in onion sap, Gluto’s technologies are based on the most innovative science and are targeted against new plant diseases, evolving pests and climate change. Our rich pipeline offers not only highly sophisticated fungicides, insecticides and nematicides, but also stress- management products that strengthen plants against droughts and heatwaves by improving their uptake of nutrients and water.
