SureStart^® – Tackling Today's Glyphosate-Resistant and -Tolerant Weeds

As recently as 2000, there were no documented cases of weeds resistant to glyphosate in the Corn Belt. Today, marestail, common and giant ragweed, waterhemp and Palmer pigweed are weeds with confirmed resistance to glyphosate. Cocklebur, lambsquarters, morningglory, velvetleaf and more are also proving tougher to kill.

Spread of Glyphosate Resistance

We specifically designed SureStart^® herbicide to provide growers the best tool to knock out weeds that glyphosate struggles against, while protecting yield and profit potential.

SureStart herbicide contains three modes of action that are different and unique from glyphosate. Using SureStart breaks up the repetitive use of glyphosate that many growers have been employing on their farms and helps protect against weed resistance.
