Video: Time to save the crop with fungicide!

In today’s YouTube video, we walk through some corn fields scouting for disease pressure. Living in the river bottoms like we do, we are always at risk for gray leaf spot and Northern corn blight. We are doing an aerial application of Miravis Neo to protect our corn from those diseases. This year we are using a drone to do our application to help ensure that we can be timely and protect our investment. Miravis Neo helps corn and soybeans stay cleaner and greener through harvest for greater potential yield and ROI.
