BASF's Headline AMP fungicide has received full registration from the Environmental Protection Agency.

Headline AMP is the first combination fungicide specifically developed for corn growers who want maximum protection from foliar diseases and improved plant health.

"Yield-driven corn growers constantly strive to prevent disease, improve plant health and increase yields," says Nick Fassler, Technical Marketing Manager at BASF.

Headline AMP is a combination of the same active ingredient in Headline fungicide with the addition of a unique, best-in-class triazole. The result is a broad-spectrum fungicide that provides maximum protection from major diseases that can threaten yield and crop quality and improved plant health.

In replicated trials, Headline AMP provided consistent yield advantages over competitive products, achieving upwards of 8 bushels per acre more than other fungicides tested. (Headline AMP has excellent activity on a large number of foliar corn diseases, including anthracnose, grey leaf spot, Northern corn leaf blight, Southern corn rust and eyespot.)
