Delivers the most yield at tassel (+12 to 15 bu/A)
Best-in-class preventative and post-infection disease control
Improves stalk strength
Reducing stress during grain fill is critical to
maximizing yields and protecting a season
worth of investment.
Stress to corn is caused by two primary factors–foliar diseases
and adverse weather. Headline AMP fungicide decreases stress
during pollination and grain fill by:
Controlling foliar diseases and
Reducing ethylene and oxidative stress (a plant hormone and cell
damaging molecules that increase in response to stress and
inhibit plant growth).

Therefore, Headline AMP fungicide treated corn can tolerate
a greater degree of stress and continue to produce energy
(photosynthesis) for grain fill.
