Disease Control and Plant Health
F500®, the active ingredient in Headline, has demonstrated unmatched results by controlling diseases such as gray leaf spot, rust and Northern/Southern corn blight. And it delivers well-documented Plant Health benefits. These include improved nitrogen uptake, stronger stands, enhanced harvest ability and greater stress tolerance. By adding metconazole, a unique triazole for corn, Headline AMP not only helps prevent diseases, but can also stop established diseases in their tracks.
Discover the benefits of a two-spray disease control program on corn.
Corn growers who consistently manage for maximum season-long disease control and aggressive yields or work fields with a history of disease pressure have experienced success with a two-spray program. Sequential applications of Headline® fungicide (between V5 and V8) and Headline AMPTM fungicide (at tassel) are especially effective on fields with specific conditions, including:
- High plant populations
- Continuous corn
- High residue
- History of corn disease
- Disease-sensitive hybrids
