U.S.: Kyber Soybean Herbicide Officially Launches

Corteva Agriscience has announced the launch of Kyber herbicide for the 2021 season. The new crop protection product is a preemergence soybean herbicide with three effective modes of action, including a Group 15 active ingredient. Kyber herbicide is an excellent addition to a program approach for broad-spectrum control of resistant broadleaf and grass weeds.

Kyber herbicide comes in a liquid premix. In addition to a Group 15 mode of action, it also contains active ingredients from Groups 14 and 5. The solution provides strong control of some of the toughest weeds farmers face, including waterhemp, Palmer amaranth and common ragweed. Each mode of action in Kyber herbicide controls resistant weeds individually, and combined together, they provide a comprehensive solution. The herbicide also has extensive residual activity, lasting four to six weeks, even going beyond six weeks in the right conditions.

“We’re so excited to announce this product, because there’s clean and then there’s Kyber clean. By beginning a weed control program with Kyber herbicide, growers will be able to start the season clean by controlling weeds from day one,” said Aaron Smith, U.S. Product Manager, Soybean Herbicides, Corteva Agriscience. “The long-lasting residual activity in the solution will protect soybeans during that important, early growth stage until it’s time for a postemergence application. Young soybeans won’t have to compete for sunlight and nutrients with weeds.”
