And the unique HPPD technology that powers SHIELDEX® 400SC provides growers with a flexible new tool in the battle against herbicide resistance.

“We are very excited about the registration of SHIELDEX® 400SC corn herbicide, and look forward to working with our exclusive distribution partners Helena Chemical Co. and Tenkoz Inc. to get the product into the hands of Retailers and Growers across the US,” says Jon Forbis, SHIELDEX® 400SC product manager.
