Syngenta recently added new enhancements and tools to GreenCastOnline.com, its informational and education online portal for professionals in the turf and ornamental industries. Users now can access product and program information, technical tips and an extensive collection of agronomic tools from smartphones and tablets.
"Delivering information in the most convenient way for our customers is important to Syngenta," said Tripp Trotter, head of marketing for turf and ornamentals at Syngenta. "We know they spend most of their time outside the office and weve seen a substantial increase in mobile traffic on GreenCast, so making key tools and information easily available on mobile devices is essential."
With this redesign, the GreenCast Online Web site now is optimized for use on mobile devices or tablets, allowing users to easily browse the Syngenta product portfolio, read articles from Syngenta technical experts and university contributors, subscribe to e-newsletters and more.
Additionally, the golf, lawn and landscape, sports turf and aquatics resources have been updated with featured tools and a product selector to navigate by product type or target pest and easily search labels.
Users also can find information on agronomic programs that can be customized by geographic location, turf type, program type and rotation. The maps section provide information on pest outlook, soil temperatures, growing degree days and weather forecasts that also can be customized by location.
