Enhance your Sunflower Crop
For the control Sclerotinia head rot (white mold).
BVT’s proprietary system uses commercial bees to deliver Vectorite with CR-7, an organic carrier agent with BVT’s patented strain of Clonostachys rosea that attaches safely to bees during their normal pollination activities.
In both university trials and grower demo programs, the BVT system has been shown to provide higher yielding fields than those not treated with the system and better control of profit robbing fungal diseases. Scroll down for NDSU trial data.
BVT’s system is low-maintenance, easy to use, and provides a constant, season-long foundation of disease control applications while lowering fuel and water consumption. Most importantly, the BVT system integrates seamlessly with all standard disease and pest spray programs, no adjustments needed!
