Purple Corn Syndrome
Purple corn syndrome commonly shows up in corn fields every year, typically following periods of low temperatures.
Seed and Seedling Diseases of Corn
Corn fields can contain numerous pathogens in the soil that are capable of infecting corn seeds and seedlings. Corn planted into a well-prepared seedbed with warm conditions that allow it to emerge quickly, can generally outgrow the effects of pathogen attack. However, corn planted into cold, wet soils that emerges more slowly can be susceptible to injury from soilborne pathogens. Soilborne pathogens may attack seeds and seedlings both before and after plant emergence, as well as the roots and mesocotyl of emerging or established plants.
Selecting the Right Nozzles to Optimize Coverage and Manage Drift
The right nozzles can maximize product performance by managing the interaction between application volume, nozzle flow rate, nozzle type, operating pressure, ground speed, nozzle spacing and droplet size category.
