Kyber® Pro herbicide and Sonic® Boom herbicide will offer growers more effective weed control choices that fit their acres.
Corteva Agriscience continues to provide growers the weed-control solutions they need with the launch of Kyber® Pro herbicide and Sonic® Boom herbicide. Both preemergence products will offer multiple, effective modes of action and extended residual activity to help soybean growers maximize yield potential, while preventing and mitigating weed resistance.
“At Corteva, it’s our job to help soybean growers overcome the challenges of the shifting weed control landscape, and Kyber Pro and Sonic Boom herbicides will do just that — offering diverse modes of action and several weeks of residual control in convenient premix formulations,” says Drake Robards, U.S. Product Manager, Soybean Herbicides, Corteva.
“By starting the season with one of these two new preemergence solutions, growers will give their soybeans a clean start for optimal growth. Sonic Boom delivers strong performance against many of the key hard-to-control and resistant broadleaf weeds, such as waterhemp and Palmer amaranth, that soybean growers face today. Kyber Pro also delivers premier weed control of many of the same broadleaf weeds as Sonic Boom, plus has a Group 15 active for additional control of grass weeds.”
Kyber Pro and Sonic Boom herbicides join Enversa™ herbicide as new soybean residual options from Corteva that will be available for growers to use in the 2025 growing season. Plus, both Kyber Pro and Sonic Boom herbicides fit well as preemergence herbicides in a program approach to season-long weed control, especially with Enlist E3® soybeans.
“We know a one-size-fits-all approach to weed control doesn’t cut it; that’s why we decided to launch three new soybean herbicides for 2025,” Robards says. “Earlier this year we announced Enversa herbicide, the preferred layered residual tank-mix partner with Enlist One herbicide for Enlist E3 soybeans. Now with the introduction of Kyber Pro herbicide and Sonic Boom herbicide, we’re giving growers more options to fully customise their weed-control programs to their soybean acres.”
Kyber Pro and Sonic Boom herbicides have received federal registration. State registrations are in progress. Kyber Pro herbicide is currently available for purchase in states where it has already received state registration. Sonic Boom herbicide is expected to be available for purchase in early 2025.
