FMC Capture LFR & the Zone of Protection

Joanna Schroeder

capture_lfr_logoIt’s time to talk about the Zone of Protection offered by FMC’s Capture LFR Insecticide. I first heard this term from Gail Stratman, the Midwest technical sales lead for FMC who spoke with Cindy this week. FMC was one of our sponsors for the 2014 Farm Progress Show.

Capture LFR is an insecticide that is specifically designed to combine, or go in, a grower’s in furrow starter fertilizer and that provides an outstanding convenience for growers because he is able to apply is fertilizer and insecticide together in one pass,” explained Stratman. “As we know in this day in age, convenience is very important because growers have a lot to do in a very short period of time and especially in that planting window in the spring.”

Stratman also said this allows a grower to combine two operations into one tank, providing outstanding convenience and great control. Specifically, it helps control pests such as wireworm, cutworm, grubs, armyworm, seed corn maggot and common stalk borer. After several of years of work with Capture LFR, growers are seeing yield bump of 8-10 bushels per acre.

Stratman encourages growers who haven’t tried Capture LFR or an at plant in furrow insecticide treatment because a grower will see higher stand increases, greater plant health and higher yield potential.
