Season-Long Control of Even the Toughest Weeds

With the longest-lasting residual of any post, Capreno® postemergence corn herbicide delivers season-long control of the toughest weeds to deliver an amazing end-of-season clean

Combines two active ingredients for complete control of more than 65 grass and broadleaf weeds, including those resistant to glyphosate, PPO, ALS, dicamba and triazine chemistries

Has a low use rate of just 3 fl oz/A Should be applied early (V1-V5) to get the full benefit of the season-long residual Offers flexibility to be used alone or in combination with tankmix partners like

glyphosate, Liberty® herbicide and atrazine Can be applied to Roundup® Ready, LibertyLink® or conventional corn.


Capreno Delivers:

Full-spectrum, postemergence control of over 65

grass and broadleaf weeds, including:

― Fall panicum, foxtails and woolly cupgrass

― Waterhemp, ragweeds and Palmer Amaranth

― Resistant weed lines

Excellent burndown of grass and broadleaf weeds

with strong residual control through crop-canopy

One-pass postemergence weed control


Maximized yields by quickly eliminating weed competition

A novel chemistry with multiple modes of action

An option to break the weed-resistance cycle

Rainfastness in 1 hour

Capreno Delivers:

3 fl oz/A Capreno + 1 pt atrazine


Outstanding Performance

Capreno combines the power of two modes of action with a highly active safener to provide:

Outstanding weed control Flexibility in field corn, seed

corn and corn grown for silage

3 fl oz/A Capreno + COC + 1 pt glyphosate


Two Modes of Action

First: A bleacher ― Inhibits the 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) enzyme in plants― HPPD is key to the production of a plant’s protective pigments― By preventing pigment production, plant chlorophyll is destroyed by the sun’s

ultraviolet rays

Second: The inhibition of the plant’s acetolactate synthase enzyme― Prevents weeds from producing three essential branch-chain amino acids ― These amino acids are building blocks for normal growth and development


Two Modes of Action

• Capreno herbicide is labeled to control:

― Ragweeds

― Lambsquarters

― Waterhemp

― Fall panicum

― Woolly cupgrass

― Giant, yellow and green foxtail

― Shattercane

― Crabgrass

― And many more3 fl oz/A Capreno + 1 qt of COC + 1.5 lb AMS


A Powerful Tool for the Control of Resistant Weeds

•Two modes of action will be especially important to corn growers with

many weed species increasingly resistant to:

– Triazine herbicides

– Glyphosate herbicides

– Dicamba and PPO herbicides (Kixor®, Verdict™, Sharpen™)

3 fl oz/A Capreno + 1 pt atrazine + MSO 1% v/v + UAN

A Powerful Tool for the Control of Resistant Weeds

Capreno is a valuable tool in managing resistant

and tolerant weed populations, as well as

maintaining the viability of other herbicide programs

Capreno corn herbicide provides corn growers with

a safe, full-spectrum grass and broadleaf alternative


Use Rate

Capreno corn herbicide is labeled for use at a rate of 3 fl oz/A for broad-spectrum grass and broadleaf weed control

When used with Liberty, Capreno is labeled for application at a rate of 3 fl oz/A

Capreno is formulated as a suspension concentrate, with a gallon treating 42 acres of corn at the 3 fl oz/A rate

The low use rate of Capreno makes it extremely convenient to use, which means there’s less product to handle, it’s easier to ship, it takes less room to store and there aren’t as many jugs.


Broadleaf Weed Control


Grass Weed Control


Complete Control


Strong Control with a One-Pass Post Program

Capreno herbicide at 3 fl oz/A may be used alone effectively for full grass and broadleaf weed control

An application of Capreno corn herbicide in combination with atrazine at 0.5 lb (Ai/A) increases:

― Speed of control

― Consistency of broadleaf weed control

Do not use atrazine if corn is greater than 12 inches tall

3 fl oz/A Capreno + COC 28%


Tankmix Partners

• Capreno + glyphosate on glyphosate tolerant corn hybrids provides corn growers:

― An additional mode of action to strengthen any one-pass postemergence herbicide program

― Complete control of waterhemp, pigweeds, lambsquarters, velvetleaf, ragweed, amaranths and other large, stressed or difficult to control weeds

― A reduced risk of glyphosate-resistance development

― Glyphosate should be used at a half to full rate depending on weed height and pressure

2 fl oz/A Capreno + 22 oz Roundup PowerMax®


Tankmix Partners

Capreno at 3 fl oz/A + Liberty herbicide applied on LibertyLink hybrids: Enhances control of large, stressed or otherwise difficult-to-control weeds Provides in-season residual weed control with Liberty Contains three modes of action for improved weed resistance management


Adjuvant Requirements

Capreno requires an adjuvant system to optimize weed control

One of the following nitrogen fertilizer sources needs to be added:

― Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN) at 1.5 qt/A

― Spray-grade ammonium sulfate (AMS) at a rate of 8.5 lbs/100 gal or a minimum of 1.5 lbs/A



• Crop Oil Concentrate– Use Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) at 1 gallon per

100 gallons of water (1% v/v), with a minimum of 1.25 pt/A. Should contain at least 80% Crop Oil and 10%+ emulsifier

– High Surfactant Oil Concentrates (HSOC) may be substituted for COC

– The use of adjuvants such as non-ionic surfactants or refined vegetable oils will result in unacceptable or erratic weed control

– Do not use Methylated Seed Oil (MSO)



When tankmixed with glyphosate

−The addition of a glyphosate-compatible oil-based surfactant (such as High Surfactant Oils) is recommended to optimize weed control

−The addition of a glyphosate-compatible surfactant is required with tankmixtures of unloaded glyphosate formulations or when using less than full rates of loaded glyphosate

− If using a fully-loaded glyphosate at full labeled rates (glyphosate with a surfactant) do not add COC or MSO


Adjuvant Needs Summary


Rapidly Rainfast

• Capreno − Rapidly penetrates target

weeds

− Moves quickly to the site of action

− Has quicker control of many of the toughest weeds vs. leading competitors

− Is less likely to be washed off by sudden rain showers

− Is rainfast in just 1 hour 3 fl oz/A of Capreno + COC + 16 fl oz/A Liberty
