Corn Rootworm Pressure is on the Rise

MycoGold Defender+

MycoGold Defender+ is a methylotrophic bacterium with a consortium of other beneficial microbes that mitigate corn rootworm feeding damage and help maintain and improve yield when rootworms are present. When conditions are conducive to high corn rootworm pressure, use Defender+ exclusively or with MycoGold Corn Blend Bio Seed treatment—rotational program with other registered insecticides effective against corn rootworm.



How does it work?

  • Blend of various strains suppress level management of CRW

 

  • Root repair following feeding enhances proliferation of roots as it’s blended with endophytes which prominently secrete auxins

 

  • Increases root growth to outgrow light feeding pressure

 

  • Defense mechanisms in the plant that inhibits CRW larvae

 

  • Supplies nutrients by solubilizing phosphates, zinc, and silica effectively, therefore better vigor and growth of plants.
