Corn rootworm larvae begins hatching in late May to June. “Generally, corn rootworm hatch occurs close to the time that we begin seeing lightning bugs outside in the evenings,” said AgVenture Agronomy Lead Louis Sutton. “This is not 100% true, but it gives us a good indication of the hatch timing. When this happens, set a reminder to begin scouting in the next couple of weeks.”
The application window for an Enlist® herbicide offers opportunities for tank-mixes with other qualified products, such as other herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, micronutrients and adjuvants.
“Selecting a solid broad-spectrum residual to add in your Enlist weed control program is an excellent decision,” said AgVenture Soybean Product Manager Jeff Shaner. “There are many products out there that will kill weeds, but they do not all behave the same.”
Enlist® corn gives you the most advanced herbicide-tolerant trait technology on the market—enabling exceptional weed control with flexible options. The Enlist corn trait will be stacked with next-generation corn rootworm trait technology (when commercially available) to form Vorceed™ Enlist® corn, providing above- and below-ground insect protection, and PowerCore® Enlist® corn technology, providing above-ground insect protection, with both structured refuge and integrated Refuge Advanced® options.
You’ll have the greatest success in weed management if you use an Enlist® herbicide as part of a program approach for weed control in Enlist® crops. This improves weed control, reduces weed competition during key stages of crop growth and helps manage herbicide resistance.
