Recognize and Manage Goss's Bacterial Wilt in Corn

Dear Friends of Engage Agro USA:

 

Despite this year's good corn yield estimates, Goss's bacterial wilt, a leaf and stalk disease, has already been confirmed in several states and is posing a threat to corn yields. And because the impact may be significant, we're sending this message out to 18,324 Midwest growers.

 

The first step in protecting your corn crops is to determine whether Goss's bacterial wilt is present. This disease can have two distinct phases: a leaf blight phase and a systemic wilt phase.

               

While there's no single solution to control Goss's bacterial wilt, there are ways to help prevent and reduce infection. A well-balanced nutrient program that includes 42PHI™ Cu a copper based fertilizer available from Engage Agro USA can ward off further infection and promote new growth and yield.

Whether Goss's bacterial wilt is already present in a corn field or not, applying a foliar nutrient like 42PHI™Cu at the first signs of plant stress due to this disease is essential.
