R2G Ready 2 Grow is more than a slogan for Aurora Agronomy—it is a commitment to help growers maximize profits from their crops. When you see R2G, you can have confidence that you’re working with the industry’s agronomy leader. We are completely focused on those technologies, products and research that can best help you increase your entire farm income.

Products and services in the R2G portfolio from Aurora Agronomy are designed to be your strategic path toward improved plant health, optimal plant performance and higher yields.

At Aurora Agronomy, we don’t bring a new product or innovation to our customers until we’ve seen it work for ourselves—over several seasons. And we test these products right here in our own Real Farm Research® plots. So you know that anything Aurora Agronomy brings to you—from seed genetics to crop protection, from fertilizers to seed treatments—has been proven under the same growing conditions you find on your farm.

Because when it comes to agronomy, local matters. Big time.

R2G gives you the assurance we have done an extensive certification process to ensure those products are produced under the highest quality standards, tested within Real Farm Research® trials and will improve the ROI in your fields and increase your bottom line.

EVITO® is the next generation, low-use rate strobilurin fungiced with Xylem-Pro Technology™—an innovation in plant health that distributes fungicide throughout the plant, moving to all areas of the leaves with water flow. EVITO works quickly to control the most prevalent diseases in corn and soybeans, at application rates of just ounces per acre. EVITO provides the plant health effect you have grown to expect: increased efficiency of carbon assimilation, nitrogen fixation, water utilization and more. EVITO makes plants healthier by protecting them from yield-robbing diseases.

Crops treated with EVITO will have a greater tolerance to adverse condition and quicker recovery to cold and moisture stress, giving you maximum yield potential.

• Protects your seed investment from seedling diseases such as damping off, Pythium and rhizctonia

• Real Farm Research indicates that 600-700 more seeds germinate as a result of disease protection, which increases stand emergence

• 2016 data from Real Farm Research shows 8.8 bushel increase over untreated check
