Bayer is bringing a new fungicide to the potato market called Velum Rise. “We’ve had Velum Prime on the market for the last few years,” said John Martin, senior technical sales representative, Bayer. “It’s an in-furrow product that really takes on the nematodes.” Velum Rise combines penflufen and fluopyram. “That is going to add additional black dot control verticillium as well as Rhizoctonia for that in-furrow treatment.”
