00:00:00 Good afternoon. We're just out here today checking on a corn on corn field. I believe this field has been corn on 00:00:05 corn for about five years. So our management of soil-borne diseases, our management of insects and pests is very important 00:00:13 to the success of this field. We're constantly testing new products and new ways to see what's gonna give 00:00:19 us the best protection. One product we continue to look at is Ethos Elite from FMC. Not only does it provide great pest 00:00:26 and insect management, root worms, things like that, but Ethos Elite also provides this great protection of soil-borne diseases like Fusarium, 00:00:33 which is a huge problem for me, especially in a corn on corn field, heavy residue, dark cold soils, things like that. 00:00:41 It, uh, it can become a big problem and, and it's something that we're always looking for solutions for. 00:00:46 Ethos Elite is a product that really helps us out in that area. It's great to be able to add one product to the Inferral 00:00:53 and know that we're checking the box on two 00:00:55.635 --> 00:00:56.395
