Being on top of fusarium head blight is all about being in the know

When you know Fusarium head blight and late-season leaf diseases will be a challenge, Miravis® Era fungicide is setting a higher standard. We put Miravis® Era to the test in spring wheat and durum fields in 2022 and 2024.

The result: An average yield increase of 4.1 bu/ac over competitors with a 90% win frequency.1

When we looked at Miravis® Era vs. Prosaro® Pro, the average yield advantage was 3.3 bu/ac with a 78% win frequency.2

Performance evaluations are based on internal trials, field observations and/or public information. Data from multiple locations and years should be consulted whenever possible. Individual results may vary depending on local growing, soil and weather conditions.

Uncovering clubroot’s complex interactions with canola
