This season brought some of the toughest tar spot pressure we’ve seen in years, and Xyway® LFR® fungicide and Adastrio® fungicide by FMC were ready for the challenge. In this Tech Talk, we break down why fungicide timing matters and how you can stay ahead of this fast-moving disease. See how Xyway LFR fungicide drives healthier root masses, better water utilization and extended disease control, and how layering an application of a foliar fungicide like Adastrio fungicide later helps to keep canopies full. Serious tar spot pressure demands serious solutions, and this program delivers.
