Last year we introduced DIFOLATAN 4 Flowable This
veai it’s the fastest selling potato fungicide on the market
Theie are a lot of leasons foi this One is that DIFO
LA.TAN is the only completely flowable fungicide you can
buv That makes it easiei to handle Theie’s no dust to
bothei vou when pouung it And because it’s flowable, it
goes through any nozzle In othei woids, it wont clog youi
equipment
And when it comes light to the heait of the mattei
fighting blight ORTHO DIFOLATAN is bsttei than any
fungicide being sold today
It gives excellent piotection against both eaily and late
blight And is paiticulaily effective against tubei lot
DIFOLATAN sticks to the plant, icsists weathering
fiom lain 01 spnnklei 11 ugation That means you can mam
tain youi schedule without woilying about the effects of
weathei or irngation
Protection against tubei rot is outstanding When you
put potatoes in stoiage you’ll nevei know how well vou did
in the blight fight until you’ve shipped the last of them
Fields may look icasonably healthy befoie haivest, but if
you put infected tubeis into stoiage you can find yourself
with a costly, heavy cull out of late blight tuber rot infec
tion
DIFOLATAN woiks to give you gieatei yields of
healthy potatoes And—because it’s flowable—it does that
even bettei
The fust time you use DIFOLATAN 4 Flowable will be
the last time you ever see potato blight
Anothei good thing about the fastest selling potato
fungicide ft woiks on cucumbers, melons, and tomatoes,
too
