TREAT YOUR SEED CORN 
WITH ARASAN 
Seed corn treating generally helps protect seed against 
rotting in the soil and checks forms of seedling blight and 
root rot caused by certain fungi on corn. Often improves 
germination, stands and yields. 
MISCELLANEOUS FIELD SEEDS 
SIBERIAN MILLET. Early, hardy, withstands drought.

fodder.
