Starane Hi-Load: Label changes to advance its use in maize
Something went wrong. Please try again later...
Starane® Hi-Load is a concentrated formulation of fluroxypyr that offers advantages in terms of time-saving for spray operators, reduced packaging and a product label that continues to evolve to meet market needs.
A great example of this is in maize, where it is much valued for its control of key weeds such as black nightshade, knotgrass, black bindweed, volunteer potatoes, docks and fumitory.
Label restrictions on all fluroxypyr-containing products have meant that tank mixing with partner herbicides in maize has not been permitted, until now!
Corteva has now secured a label update for Starane Hi-Load that removes this tank-mix restriction. It can now be used with other herbicides where supported.
It is an excellent fit for the new maize herbicide Dragster®. It can be applied from the 3-leaf stage, up to 7 leaves unfolded and, crucially, can now be applied in a tank-mix, up until the buttress roots have started to develop on the first node.
In addition, it offers the most extensive range of EAMU’s (Extension of authorisation) for a wide range of crops, including:
- Outdoor: bulb onion, garlic, leek, salad onion, shallot, sweetcorn. Poppy (papaver somniferum) grown for morphine production and poppy grown for seed production.
- Around: almond, apple, chestnut, hazelnut, pear and walnut.
- It can be used on Millet and Crops grown for game cover, Forest nursery (outdoor), Miscanthus, Outdoor farm forestry and Outdoor ornamental plant production.
It is competitively priced against other fluroxypyr brands, and can be used on newly sown grass leys, delivering outstanding late-season cleaver control in cereals, and forms a key component of the anti-resistance strategy for control of ALS-resistant weeds such as chickweed.
No other brand of fluroxypyr gives the utility in use as Starane Hi-Load.
