The trade show at the Potato Expo was well-attended. Bayer Crop Science Product Manager Monte Sorensen had many discussions on battling nematodes and insects. “Velum Prime is a broad-spectrum nematocide. It can be applied in-furrow or via chemigation. That’s really going to start off the season protecting potatoes, making sure they’re off to a strong start,” said Sorensen. “Movento Insecticide is applied later in the season. It’s a foliar application. Movento is going to move across the foliage and down into the roots. Farmers will get protection from above ground pests and nematodes.” Listen to the story.
