Crop protection is a bigger business than the crops themselves. We are dependent on nothing more throughout the growing season. We worry about yield robbers like pests and weeds. Those other life forms survive by targeting our crops, and therefore our profits. And just like any other living thing, our crops can get sick. These diseases can attack our crops in so many ways. It can be the result of pest damage, it can be weather conditions, or it can just be the adaptability of the diseases that cause us so much frustration.
It is because of this situation that companies like FMC are working tirelessly to stay ahead of these diseases and provide products that not only protect the crops but also provide the extra boost they need to remain healthy and strong through their entire life cycle.
During Commodity Classic, we got to hear about Adastrio™ fungicide from FMC. Camille Lambert is a Technical Services Manager for FMC and she tells us about Adastrio™and its three modes of action.
Lambert fills us in on how Adastrio™ will fit into your crop protection plan.
Tar spot has become a top-of-mind disease for farmers in Iowa. Each year we are seeing the disease’s footprint increase from east to west. Lambert talks about how a product like Adastrio can help you fight tar spot right out of the gate in 2024.
Lambert says that Adastrio™ is arriving on the marketplace at a time when we aren’t getting very amped up about their use in our fields.
