Root Armor
Root rots from Phytophthora, Fusarium, Rhizoctonia and Pythium are yield robbers every year. Although disease pressure varies, it is common to see 10-30% of corn roots and 5-20% of soybean roots rotted and not functioning by the time crops enter the reproductive stages of growth. Even modest damage of 10-20% (which is very common) can lead to substantial yield losses.
WHAT IS IT?
Root Armor™ is a fungicide/nematicide that proactively addresses key yield robbers in corn, soybeans and sugarbeets.
Across a four-year 30-location corn dataset (2021–2025), Root Armor™ delivered +5.3 bu./A., an 85% win rate, and a 3.3:1 ROI to the farmer.
University of Minnesota research (Dr. Chanda, 2024) further confirmed +0.8 tons/A. sugarbeet yield, +729 lbs./A. sucrose yield, and a sugar content increase of +2.1% in Saginaw, MI.

Testimonials
I chose to become a Yield Consultant® because helping farmers succeed has always been my priority. I spent months evaluating Yield Innovations because my customers aren’t just customers — they’re my neighbors and friends, and I want to recommend products I truly believe are better.
Once I understood the quality of the ingredients, availability, and the potential to improve profitability on the farm, I knew I had to share it. Farmers helping farmers — that’s what this is all about.

The way Yield Innovations can adapt to our farming practices really helped my farm by understanding what we do and making the right plan that fits our needs! Yield Innovations is always looking for new products and practices to increase yield and ROI on our farm. Their main focus is about helping the farmer be more profitable and I am proud to be partnering with Yield Innovations.
We’ve been implementing Yield Innovations’ Agronomic Profit System (TAPS™) on our farm for the last 6 years. It has benefited the farm by increasing our yields. The trend is up! Actually, our crop insurance agent noticed our yield trend and showed us a graph of how our APH changed over the last 6 years. You can see it. There’s no question. When you asked us what we think has contributed to our improvements the most… it’s not one product. We’ve changed so many things. It’s really just the system that Yield Innovations has personalized for us. It’s not one product. It’s just all of it!
