This is the year to try a desiccant! CEREALS You don’t have to leave your harvest up to chance this year. A desiccant can ensure you get your crop off and don’t get caught with a wet or snowy field this fall.

Applying a desiccant will speed up your crop’s maturity and provide a more even drydown, allowing you to harvest earlier and ensure consistent quality.

Start your harvest when you’re ready!

Ask your sales agronomist how prices have dropped for Reglone ® Ion and Armory ® 240 over the last couple years!

Contact your local dealer for everything you need to know about desiccating cereals, canola, edibles, and sunflowers.
