UPL has received approval from the Environmental Protection Agency to amend the label language of Interline herbicide from use in the “LibertyLink system” to all systems that contain “glufosinate-resistant traits.”
“The expansion enables Interline to be used on all glufosinate-resistant production systems, in addition to the LibertyLink systems,” said Tom Mudd, UPL marketing manager, corn and soybean herbicides, in a UPL news release. “Farmers today need flexibility to achieve their production goals, with products they can trust. Interline offers best-in-class performance for business-minded growers.”
Interline is now approved for use on Enlist E3 soybeans as well as LibertyLink-GT27 soybeans. The new label will give growers additional options to meet EPA herbicide requirements in these crops and help retailers manage inventories for their grower-customers.
“As the industry continues to evolve, UPL continues to provide unique product solutions for all U.S. growers. Through this expansion of the label registration, Interline herbicide can be used on a broader percentage of U.S. row crop acres for the convenience of growers,” Mudd added in a news release.
The updated label directs application of Interline for over-the-top weed control across several crops, including soybeans, cotton, and corn, canola, and sugar beets. This label revision is approved for key states — Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
