Shift corn yield into high gear with this powerful lineup

Supercharging yield with late-season crop health

Your hybrid is built to pack in each kernel. Are you managing your crop to maximize yield potential from planting through to grain fill? Management decisions during the grain fill period play a crucial role in the yield outcome of your corn crop. Heavier kernels = more bushels in the bin!

Reducing the impact of disease and maintaining plant health is essential to maximize energy flow to the kernels. Miravis^® Neo fungicide has a long track record of being the best corn fungicide to protect crop quality and yield, all in one jug.

The addition of a biostimulant such as YieldON™ to a planned fungicide application has the potential to increase yield by improving nutrient flow and sugars throughout the plant.

Farmers across Ontario have trusted Miravis^® Neo to deliver consistent quality, yield and plant health protection, in a convenient all-in-one solution since 2019.

Reduce the impact of weeds

Weeds are opportunistic and fierce resource competitors. They rely on the same vital resources as corn—space, light, water, nutrients—and inhibit your crop’s ability to achieve its best yield potential. Managing early weed pressure sets the stage for increased bushels per acre by promoting early-season plant vigour.

Foundation Acre portfolio of herbicides products are aimed at reducing the impact of weeds, weed populations and providing flexible, full season weed control.

There are four active ingredients in Acuron^® to provide built-in resistance management and season-long weed control of the broadest range of weeds.

The key to the vehicle: Know your corn numbers

Did you know?
IF you retained 1,000 more ears/acre, that could deliver 6 more bu/ac!

By minimizing stress at key growth stages, you could maximize the genetic potential of your corn crop.

1 row around* = 12 bu/ac
1 kernel in length* = 6 bu/ac

^{*At 31,000 ears/acre}

By focusing on optimal fertility programs, season-long weed control, and attentive crop management to support the crop as it moves through periods of stress, you can help your corn plants reach their maximum potential.

There are three Foundation Acre^® herbicide options to ensure excellent weed control on your farm.
