Improved drought tolerance in corn silage From planting until the Headline fungicide application was made, this field received only four measurable rainfalls. The USDA had classified this area under "moderate" drought conditions. During the two weeks following the Headline application, one-half inch of rain was received. At this time initial observations were made and the Headline treated plants were taller by at least one foot, stalk diameter was larger by approximately 50%, leaves were darker green, and the plants weren't fired like the untreated plants were. This response was very positive when you consider the whole plant will be harvested as corn silage. Post Harvest Results: The Headline treated silage corn (middle) outyielded the untreated (right) by 1.53 tons/A. Current prices for corn silage are approximately $35-40 per ton.

Just think of how many bushels of corn were left in the field this fall due to poor standability Lodging and downed corn can be a problem at harvest. Leaving bushels of corn in the field will cost you in yield and volunteer corn issues next spring. Use Headline fungicide and improve the crops standability, harvestability and ROI.

Headline on white corn White corn was carrying a $.50/per bushel premium so Headline was applied at tassel. The grower asked me to look at the field in early August, questioning if he should treat again. Everything looked great but to my surprise he went ahead and treated half the field again. His reasoning was that all education costs money and he wanted to see what it would do.

Headline Improves Stalk Strength Stalk strength and ear position are extremely important to corn growers growing corn in the black lands of Eastern North Carolina. The soils are rich, deep and moist. This is a perfect setting for optimizing yields. Corn yields can rival those in the Midwestern Corn Belt. However, the corn starts to mature and to dry down just as hurricane season starts. Tropical storms and hurricanes can produce strong winds that can blow the corn over. Headline improves stalk strength, allowing the plant to remain standing until the combine can get there.
