Valent U.S.A. Corporation has introduced Valor EZ Herbicide as a residual herbicide partner for the new next generation seed systems in cotton and soybeans.
A liquid formulation of Valor, the company’s leading herbicide, Valor EZ features easy mixing and loading and great in-tank suspension properties to provide growers a residual herbicide that is easy to use at all stages of the application process.
“The liquid formulation of Valor EZ makes the mixing process easier and more effective for growers and applicators by eliminating the pre-slurry step,” said Dr. John Pawlak, senior product development manager at Valent. “Better mixing will ensure a more even application and less unmixed material in the spray equipment.”
Available for the 2017 growing season for use on soybeans and cotton, Valor EZ provides residual protection against a broad spectrum of weeds – including tough-to-control waterhemp and Palmer amaranth – for 4-6 weeks.
Valent will offer increased grower incentives on the Valor EZ formulation for the 2017 growing season when used in next generation seed systems such as the Roundup Ready Xtend Crop System and with PhytoGen Enlist cotton varieties. Valent is offering a $6 per acre incentive on qualified purchases. Financing options will be available through John Deere Financial.
“An application of an effective pre-emergence herbicide, like Valor EZ, lays a strong residual foundation in a next generation soybean or cotton system,” said Eric Miller, marketing manager with Valent. “Valor EZ offers soybean and cotton growers a win-win solution by maximizing the effectiveness of their crop management systems, while still enabling them to effectively manage their finances through Valent’s expanded grower programs.”
