Golfdom’s Hot List: A Q&A with Syngenta

Stephanie Schwenke, turf market manager, Syngenta

What can attendees expect from Syngenta at the GCSAA show and in the year ahead?

Syngenta welcomes you to the future! We’re excited to showcase breakthrough innovations that will transform turf management, including three major product launches and enhanced wellness initiatives for golf course professionals.

What new products are you launching?

We’re introducing three game changers:

Atexzo insecticide/miticide

• Novel mode of action (IRAC Group 30) with no signal word.
• Controls adult and all larval stages of annual bluegrass weevil.
• Controls mole cricket adults and all nymphal stages. 
• Also controls billbugs, bermudagrass mites and more. 
• Contact and ingestion controls allows for wide application window. 

Trefinti nematicide/fungicide

• Elevates control of lance, sting, root-knot and Anguina nematodes.
• Simultaneously controls spring dead spot, mini ring and take-all root rot. 

Innovation Extension for Trefinti and Atexzo: Syngenta is extending its GreenTrust 365 Early Order Program for these new products, offering additional savings and rebates through Feb. 28, 2026. This allows turf managers to lock in savings, combine EOP spend for maximum rebates and defer payment until June 19, 2026. 

Aero GCX climate monitoring system:

• Evaluates precise environmental conditions including temperature, humidity and barometric pressure.
• Integrates seamlessly into GreenCast Connect mobile app with Spiio sensors.
• When partnered with SpiioTM soil sensors, it provides comprehensive above- and below-ground monitoring.
