Field Corn At-Plant
Insect Protection
 High-priced, multi-trait seed demands maximum protection from seedling insects to ensure rapid,
even emergence. The best way to protect non-Bt seed in Refuge-in-a-Bag is Capture® LFR®.
 Lost seedlings or uneven emergence means skips, uneven stands, and lost yield potential.
 For every 1,000 plants/acre, it delivers approximately 5-8 bu/A in final yield. Higher plant stand
without increasing seeding rates improves yield potential and saves seed dollars.
