Bayer Autumn Herbicide

Friday, January 2, 2009 4:37 PM MST

Autumn herbicide, from Bayer CropScience, provides growers with the flexibility to control winter and even early spring weeds when applied between harvest and ground freeze.

Autumn can be used as a burndown treatment after harvest this fall. Or, next spring, growers can use it up to 30 days before planting corn or 90 days prior to planting soybeans. Additionally, Autumn now allows growers another option for burndown 90 days prior to planting sweet corn, seed corn and popcorn, too.

Along with dandelion and marestail, the herbicide tackles common winter annuals and perennials, including chickweed, hemp nettle, henbit, horsenettle and purple deadnettle. The herbicide also helps minimize weed-cover harboring pests, such as black cutworms and soybean cyst nematodes. With Autumn, growers have the option to tankmix with several active ingredients, including Ignite herbicide, glyphosate and 2,4-D.
