weed Control Challengeglyphosate alone used to provide an effective burndown option in cereal crops. But the widespread adoption of glyphosate-tolerant canola, and the alarming spread of glyphosate- and group 2-resistant kochia, has dramatically reduced the effectiveness of glyphosate-only control programs.

Nufarm SolutionBlackHawk™ delivers faster, more complete weed control in a cereal pre-seed burndown than glyphosate and group 2 herbicides. With two active ingredients and two modes of action, BlackHawk is an innovative burndown solution that doubles as an effective tool for resistance management.

** BlackHawk must be applied according to label directions. grower must call Nufarm to register a concern within 21 days of application or before June 15, 2014 and provide purchase invoice. Nufarm will provide a field visit to assess the performance issue. the in-crop herbicide treatment will be a Nufarm broadleaf weed herbicide product registered to control the specified weed issue, as recommended by Nufarm. the in-crop herbicide treatment will be provided only on fields where BlackHawk did not perform according to the label and only on those acres deemed by Nufarm to require an in-crop herbicide treatment, up to a maximum of 640 acres. No cash value.

Satisfaction guaranteed or your in-crop herbicide is freeWe’re so confident that BlackHawk will perform just like it is stated on the label, that if you aren’t completely satisfied with your pre-seed application of BlackHawk, Nufarm will provide the in-crop broadleaf herbicide treatment.**

weed Control ChallengeWhen you’re battling a combination of tough weeds – controlling them with straight glyphosate is going to be a challenge – especially when seeding a canola crop.

Nufarm Solutionget your canola off to a strong start with cleanStart® – proven pre-seed weed control for canola. an advanced burndown product that combines proven group 14 and group 9 chemistry, cleanStart takes down the tough weeds that glyphosate alone leaves behind. two modes of action provide an effective new tool for resistance management.

8 Nufarm Solutions

toughen up your weed control with CleanStart cleanStart excels at pre-seed weed control where glyphosate burndown fails.• Leaves no residue with no risk to pulse or canola crops• Faster weed control than glyphosate alone • Works on hard-to-kill weeds including kochia, narrow-leaved hawk’s-beard,

spring germinating dandelion, cleavers*, wild buckwheat and volunteer canola (all biotypes from 1-3 leaf stage)

registered crops • canola• cereals• flax• Potatoes• Pulse crops• Sunflowers

application timingCleanStart must be applied to weeds in the seedling stage, and when glyphosate-tolerant volunteer canola is between the 1-3 true leaf stage. with multiple weed stages present in most fields, some weed escapes may occur with an application of CleanStart.

three steps to better performancecleanStart is a contact herbicide and must be applied directly on growing weeds for effective results.1. Droplet size – use a combination of nozzle type and sprayer speed to achieve

a fine to medium droplet size. adjust sprayer speed to optimize weed coverage. 2. Water volume – use 10 gal./ac. water volume for adequate coverage on weeds.3. Glyphosate-tolerant canola – in front of canola, apply a tank mix of cleanStart

and amitrol to control glyphosate-tolerant canola, or in all crops use a cleanStart rate of 30 acres per case.

Benefits of CleanStart • leaves no residue so you can spray and seed the same day or apply post-seed

prior to crop emergence• faster, reliable control than glyphosate alone, especially on narrow-leaved

hawk’s-beard, cleavers*, chickweed*, wild buckwheat and spring germinating dandelion

• combined group 14 (carfentrazone) and group 9 (glyphosate) chemistries control glyphosate-resistant weed species

• two modes of action help slow the risk of resistance• available in 40-acre case or 900-acre tote*research work conducted and grower findings indicate good control of these weeds.

weed Control Challengethere is a common belief that crops like chickpeas, flax, peas and sunflowers can’t stand up to a little weed competition. and if fields aren’t squeaky clean, then there’s no point in seeding these “sensitive” crops.

Nufarm Solutionauthority® is an innovative game changer, delivering excellent pre-seed and pre-emergent control of cleavers*, kochia, lamb’s-quarters, redroot pigweed and wild buckwheat, opening up cropping options like never before. authority contains sulfentrazone – an advanced group 14 chemistry – for effective weed control that comes with the flexibility to seed sensitive crops into less-than-perfect fields.

weed Control ChallengeYou’ve seen it before, you’re waiting for your crop to come up in the spring…and an early flush of weeds appear before or at the same time as the crop. that early weed competition will put a big dint in your crop yield. Wild oats that are a leaf stage ahead of the crop can rob up to 30%* of crop yield. and volunteer canola that comes in early and thick adds even more competition for young cereal crops.

Nufarm Solutionassert® delivers effective and affordable early control of wild oats and volunteer canola in wheat and barley. assert offers the only group 2 chemistry that can be safely sprayed early in both crops.*O’donovan et al. 1985 and Sapsford et al. 2008.
