Afla-Guard, a biological control used to thwart the growth of fungi on peanuts, can be used on corn as well, according to a study by agriculture scientists who helped develop it. After extensive study and research trials in Texas, Afla-Guard was registered by the US Environmental Protection Agency for use on corn, beginning with the 2009 crop.
