Feb. 7, 2011 Source: BASF news release Rural Community Insurance Services (RCIS), Anoka, MN, today announced that growers in eight Midwestern states can reduce their crop insurance premiums when they use Headline fungicide or Headline AMP fungicide from BASF on their corn acres. RCIS, a leader in the crop insurance business, will offer growers in select states a 50 percent discount on their 2011 premiums for the Green Snap Plus endorsement on their corn acres protected under an RCIS Crop Hail policy. "Today's high-yield corn management practices can increase the crop's vulnerability to green snap damage," said Mike Day, RCIS CEO. "The Green Snap Plus endorsement helps growers manage this emerging risk." "Headline and Headline AMP offer proven performance and leadership in providing disease control and Plant Health benefits such as more efficient harvest," said Paul Rea, Vice President, U.S. Crop Operations, BASF.
