Phytosterols at work.

Best-a for Silage Corn reduces water drought using natural processes: by virtue of how it works and its composition, this unique product improves the physiological resilience of corn by stimulating its metabolism. Once at the heart of the plant, phytosterols reduce evapotranspiration and stimulate root development, in order to draw on additional water resources. Applying Best-a for Silage Corn therefore extends the time it takes for the plant to reach wilting point and suffer water drought. As a result, the plant can more easily fulfill its potential during periods of water shortage.
