The introduction of systemic fungicides and insecticides led to more-effective seed treatments, not only protecting the germinating seeds, but also the young plants. The ground-breaking fungicide was Bayer's triadimenol, introduced as Baytan in 1979. Bayer went on to launch its neonicotinoid insecticide, imidacloprid, in 1991, as Gaucho. This is translocated to the shoots where it controls a large number of sucking and chewing pests.
