Real Results, Real Yields: BASF’s New Challenge for Growers

MID-WEST FARM REPORT - MADISON

Farmers now have a new opportunity to improve their crop yields with the launch of BASF’s Real Results Yield Challenge. This initiative aims to show how fungicides can protect yields and maximize returns.

Recent USDA data shows that average crop yields were down 5% in late 2024. "We heard many farmers express regret over missed fungicide applications that impacted their yields," said Brady Spangenberg, Marketing Director for Crop Protections with BASF US Agricultural Solutions. "By planning ahead, growers can reduce this risk and avoid those disappointing results."

Farmers can join the Real Results Yield Challenge by working with their retailer to plan trials on their fields. Both experienced users and first-time participants are encouraged to explore new spray patterns, rates, or application methods like aerial or drone spraying. BASF will support the chemical costs for qualifying trials.
