# Averland® FC Nematicide: Vive’s New Solution in the Battle Against Soybean Cyst Nematodes

**TORONTO, Ontario (November 13, 2025) –  **Soybean growers now have a powerful new tool in their fight against Soybean Cyst Nematodes (SCN), the number one pest threat to soybean yields. [Vive Crop Protection](https://www.vivecrop.com/) is excited to announce that [Averland® FC](https://www.vivecrop.com/products/averland-fc) nematicide is now registered for use in soybeans, delivering a convenient, in-furrow solution proven to protect roots, strengthen plant stands, and drive higher yields. 

Already trusted in corn and cotton, Averland FC brings its track record of consistent, high-performance nematode management to soybeans, giving growers a new, easy-to-use, liquid in-furrow option that integrates seamlessly into existing at-plant fertility and crop input programs. Designed with Vive’s Precision Chemistry™ technology, Averland FC provides targeted nematode protection where it matters most, right at the root zone.

“Soybean cyst nematodes continue to be a major challenge for growers, perpetually stealing yield potential,” said Dor Kestecher, North America Product Team Leader at Vive Crop Protection. “Growers have been asking for a solution that fits seamlessly into their planting programs. Something effective, convenient, and reliable. With Averland FC, we’re delivering nematode protection that helps growers guard their soybeans right from the start.”

“Our U.S. field trials have shown exciting results,” said George Huckabay, Lead Agronomist at Vive Crop Protection. “Similar to the performance in corn and cotton, Averland FC in soybeans is providing stronger root development and uniform stand establishment. Averland FC is proving to be a reliable, easy-to-use solution that not only helps to manage SCN pressure but also supports early-season plant vigor. The result: healthier plants, stronger yields and fewer headaches.”

The expansion of Averland FC into soybeans reinforces Vive Crop Protection’s mission to deliver innovative, easy-to-use solutions that optimize performance across every acre.

In soybeans, Averland FC protects emerging crops not only from SCN, but also Reniform, Root-knot and other yield-robbing nematodes. Additionally, the Averland FC label extension includes a new use rate in cotton at 5.5 fl oz.
