DIFOLATAN * 4 FLOWABLE
The leading flowable fungicide
made to fight potato blight.
. ! -
DIFOLATAN gives excellent protection against
both early and late blight. And is particularly effec
tive against tuber rot.
DIFOLATAN sticks to the plant, resists weather
ing from rain or sprinkle irrigation. That means you
can maintain your schedule without worrying about
the effects of weather or irrigation.
Protection against tuber rot is outstanding. When
you put potatoes in storage, you’ll never know how
well you did in the blight fight until you’ve shipped
the last of them. Fields may look reasonably healthy
before harvest, but if you put infected tubers into
storage, you can find yourself with a costly, heavy
cull out of late blight tuber rot infection.
DIFOLATAN works to give you greater yields of
healthy potatoes. And—because it’s flowable—it does
that e\ en better.
Another good thing about the fastest selling
potato fungicide. It works on cucumbers, melons, and
tomatoes, too.
