Roundup Ready Maize 2
Insect and weed control are two critical aspects of maize production. This is where DEKALB’s biotechnology can help to protect your maize, making life for you as a busy farmer just a little easier. Combine the benefits and plant a stack gene hybrid.
Our technology makes a difference!
Roundup Ready® technology and systems offers:
Broad-Spectrum Weed Control
The Roundup Ready Maize 2 system provides unsurpassed weed control.
- Early-season weed control is critical for early maize plant development and maximum genetic yield potential. Roundup Ready systems can provide that protection.
- Compare Roundup agricultural herbicides to other post-emergence herbicides. You'll find Roundup PowerMAX in the Roundup Ready Maize 2 system gives you broader, more consistent control on grasses and broadleaf weeds.
Convenience and Application Flexibility
The Roundup Ready Maize 2 system has built-in flexibility:
- Simplifies your weed control programme and provides greater flexibility to manage around the weather.
- Wider window of post-emergence herbicide application in the event of adverse weather conditions - up to eight-leaf stage. This weather safety factor puts you in control of your spray schedule.
- Opportunity to control late annual weed flushes.
- Increased ability to spray at the best possible time.
- Roundup PowerMAX can provide consistent performance even when spray conditions are less than ideal.
Start Clean, Stay Clean.™
- Early-season weed control is critical to maximizing yield potential.
- It reduces weeds to reduce the weed seed bank.
- It gives you better flexibility for maximum weed control - pre- to late-post.
- Timely applications and the appropriate rate of Roundup PowerMAX will give you unsurpassed broad-spectrum weed control. Because Roundup PowerMAX herbicide is so effective, it may be the only post-emergence product you need.
Outstanding Crop Safety
The Roundup Ready Maize 2 system delivers proven crop safety - and peace of mind. Lowering your risk of crop injury can deliver more yield per hectare than conventional maize herbicide programmes.
- Because Roundup agricultural herbicides are specifically designed for Roundup Ready Maize 2, you can rely on superior crop safety compared with other non-glyphosate, post-emergence herbicides.
- The Roundup Ready Maize 2 system can reduce potential yield loss from crop injury.
- Grower on-farm trials have shown that using Roundup agricultural herbicides with built-in crop safety on Roundup Ready Maize 2 can yield more yield per hectare than certain other conventional herbicide programmes (applied over the same Roundup Ready hybrid).
