Pythium, Rhizoctonia and Other Diseases Pythium is a common disease that infects the seed at or before germination. Rhizoctonia infects through leaf petioles, crowns or roots and has the ability to affect all parts of the plant. Early season treatment is vital to protecting crops at their most vulnerable state.
White Mold White mold is one of the most prevalent disease threats to peanut growers across the Southeast. Without proper preventive treatment, this disease can damage roots and pegs, leading to reduced yield potential.
Untreated Preventive fungicide applications are the best way to protect your peanut crops from common diseases like white mold, early and late leaf spot, Rhizoctonia and more.
Treated with Elatus® Proactive planning and early-season fungicide applications are essential to minimize disease impact and protect yield potential in your peanut crops.
Lesser Cornstalk Borer and Soybean Looper LCB population outbreaks typically occur during hot, dry weather. However, when the weather is hot and wet, soybean looper worm flights will begin to pick up - and they're headed for your peanut fields.
Thrips A thrips infestation will cause distorted leaves, leaf browning and leaf death. Early-season seed treatment can help fight this pesky pest.
