Achieve Higher Yields and the Best Quality with Performance You Can Count On!

Due to recent wet weather, it is time to start thinking about Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) in our cereal crops. FHB is the most destructive disease growers face that can significantly reduce yield potential. Infections can result in reduced yield as well as discounts at the elevator because of higher levels of vomitoxin (DON) produced by the disease. 

Sphaerex™ fungicide is a combination of two of the best active ingredients on the market in metconozole and prothioconozole to help defeat FHB.

Fusarium infects the crop through the anthers and infections can develop in as little as three days with this disease. Applications of Sphaerex™ fungicide are most effective at Feekes 10.5.1 growth stage of wheat and durum or at full head emergence for barley.  Sphaerex ifungicide s an easy to use EC formulation that is rainfast in 15 minutes. Apply at 7.3 fl oz/A for best results with an NIS at 1 pt/100.
