Volume V, Issue 3 Postcard
July, 2010



Postcard text:

WHEAT:
Several reports from wheat growers who treated with fungicide mention substantially increased yields and intact flag leaves. We would like to hear how your wheat fungicide performed.

CORN:
Corn insect treatments will begin soon. Spraying beetles usually comes first. Treat beetles both to reduce egg laying and prevent silk clipping.

Bifenthrin (Capture) is priced economically and gives excellent broad-spectrum control, while Penncap is in short supply and has a 30 day re-entry restriction (REI).

Fungicide can often be economically tank-mixed with corn insecticide, providing disease protection and increased yields. Call us for more information.


Volume V, Issue 2 Postcard

Postcard text:
Strong south winds combined with damp weather are a recipe for wheat disease. Treating your wheat with a fungicide at flag leaf stage can give you peace of mind and also put more bushels in the bin in July.

KSU reported recently that some popular wheat varieties previously considered rust resistant are now susceptible. High yield potential fields and irrigated wheat are prime candidates for treatment, but most wheat can benefit. Low priced--yet highly rated--fungicides such as tebuconazole can be applied for about $8 per acre with a 30 day pre-harvest interval.

Other options are available: call us. Or click here to read more about current wheat rust news.


Volume V, Issue 1 Postcard

March, 2010



Postcard text:
Treating wheat now for tansy mustard also provides season-long weed control, and delays after-harvest weed pressure in your stubble.

Most fields have good moisture profiles, so planning for maximum yields makes sense, even at today's prices.

Call us for a no-tracks application: It's an easy, fast, and cost-effective way to solve your wheat herbicide needs.
