Advanced Biological Marketing has recently introduced T-22
for Wheat, a new companion fungicide that has been proven to
increase yield while protecting wheat from disease for the
entire growing season. T-22 was originally launched for winter
wheat, but is now available for both spring and winter wheat for
the 2005 planting season.
T-22 for Wheat contains a strain of the beneficial fungus
Trichoderma Harzianum Rifai, developed at Cornell University,
and has been proven to protect wheat plants from soil-borne
pathogens Pythium, Fusarium, Sclerotina and Rhizoctonia.
T-22 for Wheat is both EPA approved and certified organic and
does not affect ground water or runoff.
T-22 for Wheat is a companion product and works best when used
in conjunction with a traditional fungicide. Traditional
fungicides only work during the first few weeks of a plants
life, then become ineffective at preventing disease. T-22 for
Wheat begins to work when the traditional fungicide stops, and
protects the plant from disease for the remainder of the plants
life.
The fungicide has been thoroughly tested for the past seven
years in 83 independent and university direct comparisons. T-22
for Wheat has proven to increase yield by up to 5.49 bushels per
acre. The product encourages increased tillering, so there are
more wheat shoots per plant. By promoting faster root and shoot
development and greater root mass, T-22 for Wheat also improves
nutrient uptake and creates a healthier plant that reduces
lodging, making harvest easier.
T-22 for Wheat is effective in most soil types and is
compatible with commercially applied seed treatments, said Dan
Custis, president of Advanced Biological Marketing. We believe
that T-22 for Wheat usage is an absolutely necessary element of
wheat farming today, particularly when you factor in the
additional profit that can be earned.
