Learn MoreDefend Against Yield-Robbing Insects
Above- and below-ground insects can reduce crop health and rob bushels from your bins. The right insect protection helps maximize your crop performance.
PowerCore® Trait Technology brings three distinct modes of action providing long-lasting insect control against key above-ground susceptible insects.
How does Vorceed® trait technology stack up?
By delivering more below-ground protection than the competition.
Optimum® Intrasect® hybrids are locally developed to perform in a wide range of environments and combine two proven and trusted traits (HX1, YGCB) to give your crop dual-mode above-ground insect protection.
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 on your acres.
Herculex® insect protection offers leading protection against corn insects for maximum yield potential. Herculex I provides the same consistent control of above-ground insects for areas with minimal rootworm pressure.
Guard Crops from Weeds Without Compromising Yield Potential
To help farmers achieve their highest yield potential yet, we partner with farmers to meet their individual needs and provide a superior experience when planting Pioneer brand corn products. Beyond the seed, we bring herbicide flexibility though easier management of tough weeds with Enlist® weed control system.
Multiple Herbicide Tolerance
Enlist® corn gives you the ultimate weed management flexibility with four robust herbicide trait tolerances — including powerful 2,4-D choline in Enlist herbicides to get effective, neighbor-friendly weed control.
The Enlist corn trait will be stacked with next-generation corn rootworm trait technology to form Vorceed® Enlist® corn, providing above- and below- ground insect protection, and PowerCore® Enlist® corn technology, providing above-ground insect protection.
Glyphosate Tolerance
Pioneer® brand corn hybrids with the Roundup Ready® Corn 2 gene provide resistance to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup® herbicide.
Glufosinate Tolerance
Pioneer® brand corn hybrids with the LibertyLink® gene provide in-plant resistance to glufosinate, a nonselective, postemergence herbicide that offers relatively quick contact action on many tough grass and broadleaf weeds.
