“SY4187 further strengthens the Syngenta canola seed portfolio and gives growers more opportunity to capitalize on high yields in geographies where clubroot is a growing concern,” says Shaun Vey, Product Lead, Canola and Cereal Seed, with Syngenta Canada. “SY4187 is an ideal hybrid for growers that want to be proactive and protect their canola from clubroot, but don’t want to sacrifice anything in terms blackleg control or top-end yield potential.”_x000D_

Vey points out that SY4187 consistently ranked among the top yielding hybrids in the 2015 Canola Performance Trials, Public Co-op Trials and Syngenta field trials._x000D_
