YieldGard Plus delivers effective and consistent in-plant protection
against western, northern and Mexican corn rootworms and European
and southwestern com borer, for a zone of protection that goes
from the
root to the tassel-from the time you plant.
- YieldGard Plus
contains broad spectrum, in-the-bag control of secondary pests
includes wireworm, white grub, sugarcane borer, southern
corn stalk borer, seed corn maggot and early flea beetle.
- Effective and
consistent control helps maximize root systems and healthier
stalks.
- YieldGard Plus maximizes the amount of moisture and nutrients
that are absorbed and carried through the plant for greater
yield potential and protection, less lodging and less ear drop.
- YieldGard
Plus provides convenience to the grower since it reduces the
amount of insecticide needed to be handled and time
scouting for insect damage.
- YieldGard Plus returns up to $20 per acre more
profit. (Two-year average yield advantage, Monsanto data.)
To preserve the benefits and insect protection of the YieldGard® family of corn technologies, and Insect Resistance management (IRM) plan must be part of short-term or long-term production strategies.
- Plant up to 80% of your corn acres with YieldGard
Rootworm or YieldGard Plus corn.
- Plant at least 20% of your acres
on each farm as a corn refuge.
- Plant the refuge within or adjacent
to the YieldGard Rootworm or YieldGard Plus fields.
- Refuge can be
a block or in-field strip (six consecutive rows minimum, 12 rows
preferred, in each strip).
- Planting a refuge is an EPA requirement
for YieldGard Rootworm and YieldGard Plus corn.
Pleasee refer to the YieldGard IRM Guide for complete IRM requirements.
