UPL expands Interline herbicide to all glufosinate-resistant crops

UPL has received approval from the Environmental Protection Agency to amend the label language of Interline herbicide from use in the “LibertyLink system” to all systems that contain “glufosinate-resistant traits.”

“The expansion enables Interline to be used on all glufosinate-resistant production systems, in addition to the LibertyLink systems,” said Tom Mudd, UPL marketing manager, corn and soybean herbicides, in a UPL news release. “Farmers today need flexibility to achieve their production goals, with products they can trust. Interline offers best-in-class performance for business-minded growers.”

Interline is now approved for use on Enlist E3 soybeans as well as LibertyLink-GT27 soybeans. The new label will give growers additional options to meet EPA herbicide requirements in these crops and help retailers manage inventories for their grower-customers.

“As the industry continues to evolve, UPL continues to provide unique product solutions for all U.S. growers. Through this expansion of the label registration, Interline herbicide can be used on a broader percentage of U.S. row crop acres for the convenience of growers,” Mudd added in a news release.

The updated label directs application of Interline for over-the-top weed control across several crops, including soybeans, cotton, corn, canola, and sugar beets. This label revision is approved for key states — Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Registration for New York is under review.
