Pioneer provides industry-leading trait options to keep your crop healthy and improve your profitability. From above- and below-ground insect protection to herbicide tolerance, our technology options help your crop achieve its full potential.
Above- and below-ground insects can reduce crop health and rob bushels from your bins. The right insect protection helps maximize your crop performance.
Optimum® Leptra® hybrids have a powerful pyramid of traits with three modes of action to provide superior control of above-ground pests, including corn borer, corn earworm and fall armyworm on your acres. The pyramid of traits in Optimum Leptra includes Herculex® insect protection, Agrisure Viptera® and Bt trait to deliver cleaner ears with less kernel damage through reduced ear feeding by these harmful pests.
Weeds compete with crops for essential sunlight, nutrients and water. Gain flexibility in controlling weeds by relying on the many Pioneer® brand corn hybrids with herbicide-tolerant traits to manage and protect your crop’s potential.
Pioneer® brand corn hybrids with the Roundup Ready® Corn 2 gene provide resistance to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup® herbicide.
Pioneer® brand corn hybrids with the LibertyLink® gene provide in-plant resistance to Liberty®, a postemergence herbicide that offers relatively quick contact action on many tough grass and broadleaf weeds.
Stay on top of pests to optimize your crop’s potential. The right management program complements your trait package and protects your crop genetics.
The best genetics, top trait packages and extensive local field knowledge combine to deliver new products with proven performance consistency across years and environments. Use Pioneer® brand corn products to maximize yield potential on every acre.
