EPA registration for FMC’s Capture® 3RIVE 3D™
A new insecticide formulation from FMC has received EPA registration. It is designed to help growers fight corn rootworm and other corn pests. Matt Hancock, corn segment manager for FMC, tells Brownfield Ag News, that field trials of Capture® 3RIVE 3D™ have been very successful, “Utilizing the foam we are seeing the same type of – the same/similar root ratings, similar yield enhancement very consistent with what we’ve come to expect from Capture.”
The EPA registration is for use with the new 3RIVE 3D™ ultra-low volume, in-furrow delivery system.

Hello Steve,
I am contacting FMC for you and hope to have an answer soon.
Sincerely,

Mr. Beutel,
Thank you for purchasing a 3RIVE 3D system. We appreciate your business. I can certainly understand your concern as we all eagerly await a planting season that is, once again, delayed in many areas. And, like you, I am eager for all of our 3RIVE 3D systems to take to the field. Each 3RIVE 3D system installation is custom and different planters require different plumbing configurations. Some configurations have required more fine tuning to ensure proper pump performance. I can assure you that we have built a quality product that will perform as intended. For your peace of mind, I have notified our team in the field to reach out to you as soon as possible and address your concern directly. Once again, we appreciate your business and look forward to working with you this planting season.
I have a 3rive system on my planter. Just heard today that there is issues with the pumps locking up
After running system for a time. Wasn’t real pleased to here this. Any headway on a solution before I fire this thing up
