Advanced Protection From Advanced Breeding

Why do farmers need enhanced disease tolerance? Better performance starts with healthier plants. Diseases rob yield and can be difficult to manage. Diseases are:

Unpredictable

Their prevalence depends on weather patterns and field conditions. 

Common

Most farmers experience some sort of disease pressure every five years.

Devastating

When not dealt properly, diseases can significantly reduce yield.
