Vive Highlighting Fungicides To Help Sugarbeet Growers
As Sugarbeet growers look ahead to the 2025 season, Vive Crop Protection is reminding growers to maximize those yields and sugar content. George Huckabay with Vive Crop Protection said their latest lines of fungicides will help producers increase efficiency, reduce hassle and increase ROI.
“So, the first one right now we have is our inferior product for sugarbeets, Azteroid FC 3.3...its fertilizer compatible and it allows growers to actually mix the Azteroid with liquid fertilizer where they put it out the exact same time. So, instead of having to pick between fertility or crop protection, they can pick both at the same time. And that's our base program that we recommend for growers to use because we've seen excellent yield and excellent more recoverable sugar with that product. And then the second one would be our foliar product, which is Phobos FC. It's actually geared to, and does a really good job at Cercospora leaf spot.”
Huckabay said both products help sugarbeet growers by providing long-lasting disease control.
“With Azteroid, it actually helps the seed get a better start and stay protected when it comes out of the ground. So, it's a healthier, faster growing, faster growing plant. And then with Phobos FC, with our product, we have a better folder differentiation with our product, so we get better coverage. We also get better protection and better yield from that Cercospora leaf spot.”
