of high quality seed, produced under irrigation with careful management to avoid
plant stresses as much as possible.
Elite Base Treatment
Maxim XL® is a combination of
fludioxonil and mefenoxam and target pathogens include Pythium spp., Fusarium spp.
and seed rot fungi. The water-based formulation spreads over all parts of the kernel,
providing optimal coverage and protection. Apron XL® provides additional mefenoxam
for added Pythium spp. control. The two active ingredients have been classified as
‘reduced risk’ compounds by the Environmental Protection Agency. TrilexTM contains
the active ingredient trifloxystrobin and provides further improvement in control of
Fusarium spp. and Rhizoctonia under adverse conditions.

Poncho® 250
Poncho® 250, with the active ingredient clothianidin, is an insecticide that protects
both seed and seedling from wireworm, cutworm, white grub, seedcorn maggot, grape
colapspis, flea beetle (to the 4th true leaf), southern corn leaf beetle, chinch bug,
southern green stink bug, aphids, thrips and other insect pests through both systemic
and contact activity. Poncho® 250 has excellent water solubility and attraction to
plant lipids (oils) for maximum plant absorption. This allows for systemic as well as
contact activity. Poncho® 250 is a standard treatment with Select Seed YieldGard Plus
Hybrids, YieldGard Plus/RR2, YieldGard VT Triple, YieldGard VT
Rootworm, Herculex Xtra and Herculex Xtra/RR2 Hybrids. Talc or graphite should always be used
