BioWorks, Inc., committed to creating a safer environment, today launched two new versions of its popular RootShield® biological fungicide, RootShield Seed Treatment and RootShield AG.

Both RootShield varieties are OMRI listed, are available as a wettable powder, and can be used alone or in conjunction with certain chemical fungicides.

"These new varieties of RootShield offer growers additional biological, OMRI listed solutions." said Joe Gionta, Director of Marketing and Sales.
