Many Pioneer corn hybrids and soybean varieties have in-plant genetic resistance to popular herbicides, giving you control flexibility under certain weed pressure situations. Evaluate the total package value of hybrids and varieties you're considering, field by field, emphasizing genetics first then determining the herbicide program or system needed to control weeds.
Pioneer corn hybrids with the Roundup Ready Corn 2 gene and soybean varieties with the Roundup Ready gene - These traits provide resistance to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup herbicide. Widely accepted and used in Pioneer soybeans, the Roundup resistance gene is also available with a growing number of Pioneer corn hybrids, including stacked-trait hybrids with both the Roundup Ready Corn 2 gene and corn borer resistance. Marketing of corn harvested from hybrids containing the Roundup Ready Corn 2 trait is subject to the Market Choices^ program.
Pioneer corn hybrids with the LibertyLink gene - Liberty is a non-selective, postemergence herbicide that offers relatively quick contact action on many tough grass and broadleaf weeds.
Conventional Pioneer corn hybrids - For additional options, ask your local crop protection retailer about proven conventional herbicides and insecticides suited to your cropping and management system.
