New Outshine Broadleaf Herbicide for Cereals

Adama Canada announces the registration of Outshine™ broadleaf weed herbicide.
 
Outshine herbicide provides cereal growers with broad-spectrum weed control from three active ingredients and two modes of action. For tough broadleaf weeds like cleavers, chickweed, hemp-nettle, kochia and wild buckwheat, Adama’s newest herbicide, Outshine, gives cereal growers a better way to control weeds.
 
“Outshine will fit for those farmers who are struggling with some of the tougher broadleaf weeds, especially some of the Group 2 resistant weeds. In the black, gray and dark brown soil zones, chickweed, cleavers and hemp-nettle can be challenges that Outshine can clean up. In the Brown soil zones, it can take on kochia, flixweed, wild buckwheat and smartweeds,” says Andrew Mann, CEO Adama Canada at Winnipeg, Manitoba. “Outshine is also able to control kochia that has developed resistance to Group 2 and Group 9 (glyphosate).”
 
Outshine contains the active ingredients florasulam, fluroxypyr, and MCPA ester. Florasulam is a Group 2 herbicide and fluroxypyr and MCPA ester are Group 4 herbicides. This proven combination of active ingredients provides outstanding broadleaf weed control including Group 2 resistant cleavers, hemp-nettle and kochia. And with control of red root and Russian pigweed, smartweed and wild buckwheat, Outshine cleans up on a broad spectrum of broadleaf weeds for cleaner fields and higher yields. 
 
Outshine is registered on spring and durum wheat, and barley. Application timing is from the two- to six-leaf stage, allowing growers the flexibility to go in early to eliminate weed competition. Outshine can also be tank-mixed with grassy-weed herbicides for one-shot weed control. Tank mixes include Assert on spring and durum wheat and barley, Axial in spring wheat (not durum) and barley, and Everest on spring and durum wheat.
