Vive Crop Protection rolling out product for Cercospora Leaf Spot Protection

Cercospora Leaf Spot was the topic of discussion for sugarbeet growers this past growing season, and the disease ravaged sugarbeet crops across the Red River Valley. To help with the fight against Cercospora, Vive Crop Protection has released a new product available to growers across the valley. Dor Kestecher of Vive Crop protection tells us more. 

There were a select number of sugarbeet producers in the Red River Valley who used this new product this past year, and Kestecher says it performed well. 

Root Maggot is also a disease that some sugarbeet producers in the valley are dealing with, and Kestecher says they are also launching a new product this year to fight it.
