  • Plant at medium to medium-high plant densities for best results.
  • Performs well in conventional and no-till systems.
  • Good choice for continuous corn and corn/soybean rotations.
  • Widely adapted across soil types and environments with variable fertility and stress levels.
  • Foliar fungicide recommended in environments with a high risk for gray leaf spot.
