Help Improve Your
Potato Yield Potential
Controlling soilborne diseases, such as Rhizoctonia, at planting can pay off at season's end
with improved potato quality and higher yield potential.
Regardless of how high the yield potential or how your potatoes grade, during harvest you likely
started thinking about making adjustments to reach the next level. If soilborne diseases and
Verticillium wilt were a challenge for you in 2021, you might consider applying Elatus®
fungicide
