Consider these products for your customers’ crops next season

Ag retailers must earn or maintain a farmer's trust through reliable product recommendations. As farmers make 2026 input decisions, they base these decisions on not only product performance but also additional value to the overall production system. 

"From considerations like pre-harvest intervals and reentry levels, to crop rotational options and herbicide stewardship, crop protection products must offer more than just what they are labeled to control," said Eric Scherder, Ph.D., U.S. crop protection technical lead, Corteva Agriscience. "Some processes within a farming operation are, to a degree, interconnected, with some influencing or supporting something else. As farming margins continue to tighten, it's important to consider future impacts when making current decisions or product choices." 

Wheat farmers can now capitalize on that scenario by selecting a herbicide offering exceptional grass and broadleaf weed control. To take advantage of commodity market fluctuations and opportunities, more wheat farmers are finding multiple benefits from the added value Tolvera^® herbicide offers after harvesting winter or spring wheat, durum and/or barley. Tolvera herbicide displaced a number of competitor cereal herbicides in 2025. Benefits of Tolvera herbicide include:   

1. Expanded crop rotation and a shorter plant-back period to lentils and peas  
2. The active ingredient, tolpyralate, a new active (Group 27) for the cereals market in 2025
3. Control of key driver weeds including kochia, waterhemp, henbit, mustards, green and yellow foxtail and others 

"Similar flexibility and value can be found in a next generation soybean herbicide that provides exceptional control of more than 50 grass and broadleaf weeds in soybeans," Scherder said. "Building on the success of Kyber^® herbicide, I see Kyber Pro herbicide being an excellent fit for any soybean herbicide program, especially for weed control in early-season soybeans."

Benefits of Kyber^® Pro herbicide also include:

1. Three modes of action – Groups 5, 14 and 15
2. Increased handling and flexibility
3. Extended residual activity that can protect soybeans up to the V4 to V5 stage

With two proven active ingredients, Sonic^® Boom herbicide gives farmers an underutilized mode of action and a flexible application rate for extended residual activity to protect soybeans from more than 35 broadleaf weeds. 

Preemergence herbicides are key in soybeans but so is in-season residual protection. 

"As farmers continue to deal with extreme in-season weather swings, Sonic Boom herbicide sets up an extended barrier of residual protection around soybeans without setting them back," Scherder said. "If you're looking for another versatile, multi-crop residual herbicide that is a flexible tank-mix partner, look no further than Enversa herbicide."

Benefits of Enversa™ herbicide also include:

1. Encapsulated acetochlor (Group 15) that drives to the soil for residual weed control
2. A label for corn, soybeans, cotton, and sugarbeets
3. Being the preferred tank-mix partner with Enlist One^® herbicide for Enlist E3^® soybeans

 “Building on the legacy of Resicore herbicide, Resicore REV herbicide can give corn farmers powerful weed control with increased application flexibility,” Scherder said. “That flexibility adds value to farming logistics when access to fields is delayed.”

Benefits of Resicore^® REV herbicide include:

1. Tank-mix compatibility with liquid UAN, micro- and macro nutrients like ATS (ammonium thiosulfate) for a "weed-and-feed" option
2. Broad-spectrum weed control with a long-lasting residual
3. Application on corn up to 24 inches tall.
4. Multiple modes of action

As resistance to glyphosate continues and resistant grass and broadleaf weeds advance, corn farmers can turn to Kyro^® herbicide, a novel premix for postemergence activity combined with extended residual weed control in corn. Benefits of Kyro herbicide also include:   

1. Three very effective modes of action that bring broad-spectrum postemergence and residual control
2. Flexible rate structure that complements a tank-mix program with atrazine
3. Broad-spectrum grass and broadleaf control when used with glyphosate 

"Wet and humid conditions set the stage last year for more disease pressure in corn and soybeans. On the heels of impressive preliminary field trial results across the Midwest, Forcivo fungicide will be available to farmers this growing season," Scherder said.

Benefits of Forcivo^™ fungicide include:  

1. Three overlapping modes of action to boost plant health and preserve yield potential
2. A novel SDHI – fluindapyr, to provide additional control over multiple foliar diseases like:
   • Tar spot, northern corn leaf blight, gray leaf spot and southern rust on corn
   • Target spot, frogeye leaf spot and white mold on soybeans
3. Long-lasting residual activity that protects the crop for up to 30 days after application
