The SwiftDetect season has come to a close...
But don't worry; we'll be back in March, offering more than just a test so sensitive that it can detect Septoria in wheat even during the latent period!
That's right. Next season, our super speedy test will not just be able to identify Septoria in wheat, but also:
-
Mildew in wheat
-
Yellow Rust in wheat
-
Brown Rust in wheat
-
Ramularia in Barley
If you're interested in gaining an early warning of these diseases, providing you with the opportunity to save money, help the environment and protect yield, click the button below. You'll be the first to know when the SwiftDetect season opens up again.
The problem
Preventing and treating crop disease such as Septoria usually involves the use of expensive and environmentally damaging fungicides, and when disease is present, it can be difficult to detect until there is visible evidence. By this stage, there could be losses in yield of up to 50% and damage to remaining crops. Additionally, overuse of fungicides to prevent this could result in resistance.
How SwiftDetect can help
SwiftDetect will help you to achieve more accurate information on the level of disease in your crops, which will help support decision making and improve efficiency and effectiveness of spray applications. In turn, this will help overcome issues such as overuse of fungicides yet result in the same quality of crop.
Rapid turnaround
Get actionable insight on the level of disease in your crop, guaranteed within 1 business day*.
Sensitive
SwiftDetect is super sensitive, so can detect wheat disease well before it becomes visible on the leaf. This allows you to take proactive action.
Hassle-free
All you need to do is collect a sample and post it to us in an envelope; we will handle the rest.
Better targeting
Swift Detect allows you to match the fungicide and dose rate to the level of disease in your crop at T1 & T2.
Reduced environmental impact
By giving you clear insight on level of disease in your crop, you will be able to use fungicide more efficiently and effectively, helping the environment and reducing waste.
Cost-effective
SwiftDetect not only helps you make savings by spending less on fungicide for the same yield, but being a single cost test, SwiftDetect is cost-effective in itself!
Gain insight
SwiftDetect allows you to see how disease is progressing in your crops over time giving a deeper level of insight. In addition, we can find the average level of disease in multiple leaves, providing you with a more representative result than if a single leaf was tested.
4-in-1 test
SwiftDetect is currently able to detect Septoria, and is under development to soon be able to also detect yellow rust, brown rust and mildew from just one sample.
