Syngenta announces new corn herbicide Acuron™ Flexi

Date:07-29-2015

Syngenta has announced Acuron™ Flexi as the name of its new corn herbicide premix, formulated for long-lasting residual control of difficult weeds and added flexibility. The U.S. EPA registration is anticipated for the 2016 growing season.

Using the latest formulation technology, Acuron Flexi will combine three active ingredients, including bicyclopyrone, and two complementary modes of action to deliver a multi-targeted approach to weed control. This is especially important as weed resistance is expanding and weeds such as giant ragweed, waterhemp and Palmer amaranth are becoming more difficult to manage.
