PRE-PARE ROI

PRE-PARE® ROI

Downy brome is a growing problem for wheat producers across the Northern Plains. It has the roughly the same life cycle as winter wheat, but it matures more rapidly and continues to grow at low temperatures even after winter wheat has gone dormant. This gives it a competitive edge in the spring and winter wheat is unable to catch up before harvest. The use of PRE-PARE burndown herbicide with glyphosate can make a significant difference in your yield and your bottom line.

DO THE MATH. YOU'LL SEE THAT PRE-PARE DOESN'T COST. IT PAYS.

Research demonstrates that the yield increase from adding PRE-PARE to your glyphosate burndown can boost yields by 5 bushels an acre. At $6.00 per bushel, that's $30.00 per acre. Glyphosate in burndown is $2 per acre (on average). Adding PRE-PARE for winter wheat to glyphosate is $7.50 per acre (on average). Subtract the cost of PRE-PARE and you have a $22.50 profit.

ADD PRE-PARE TO YOUR GLYPHOSATE AND MAXIMIZE RETURNS ON YOUR WINTER WHEAT

EARLY PROTECTION MEANS MANAGEMENT OF DOWNY BROME

     If downy brome emerges within 14 days of a winter wheat crop, it can reduce yields by 15 to 22 percent depending on weed density.*

EARLY PROTECTION MEANS MORE MONEY IN THE BANK AT HARVEST

  • By using PRE-PARE with your burndown application, you don't have to wait for all of your weeds to emerge,
    allowing you to seed earlier in the fall.

  • By protecting your newly planted wheat crop from wild oats, bromes and other fall emerging weeds that come
    up after a glyphosate-alone burndown, PRE-PARE extends the time your valuable crop has to grow competition-free.

  • A glyphosate-only burndown application means that your crop is left unprotected from weed competition until
    a fall or spring post-emergence application, by which time the yield damage may already be done.

  • Adding PRE-PARE ensures that the residual performance is there to protect your crop, giving you more time
    for a post-emergence application.

  • Research consistently demonstrates that PRE-PARE makes fall or spring post-emergence applications even better.
