Real Results Yield Challenge returns for 2026 season

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC, March 3, 2026 – BASF is inviting farmers nationwide to again see the difference a BASF performance-driven fungicide can make in their own field with the return of the Real Results Yield Challenge. Building on the momentum and insights gained last year, the 2026 Challenge will provide opportunities for growers and retailers to compare fungicides in their own fields, under their own conditions, with Veltyma® fungicide, Revytek® fungicide and Revylok® fungicide against untreated or acres treated with another fungicide brand. The Real Results Yield Challenge empowers farmers with sidebyside data that highlights the yield potential and field protection they may be leaving untapped.

“Significant disease pressure in 2025 reinforced how quickly conditions can change for farmers doing the biggest job on Earth,” said Amy Pawlick, Senior Product Manager with BASF Agricultural Solutions. “While this season’s conditions are unknown, growers can control their fungicide decisions to help deliver consistent yield performance and ROI. Choosing a BASF fungicide helps avoid leaving bushels on the table.”

The 2025 Real Results Yield Challenge brought together 1,800 farmers and 300 retailers from 30 states, who tested Veltyma, Revytek and Revylok fungicides in side-by-side comparisons against untreated plots or competitor products. Participating farmers demonstrated the important role that BASF fungicides can play in protecting crops and enhancing yield potential. The impressive outcomes from last year have set the stage for an even bigger Real Results Yield Challenge in 2026.

Farmers interested in participating in the Real Results Yield Challenge are encouraged to contact their BASF authorized retailer or local BASF representative. To learn more and find out how you can participate in this year’s Challenge, visit Real Results Yield Challenge
