Maximize your Corn and Soybeans
Product Info
Affiance and Domark fungicides are key tools for improving plant health in corn and soybeans. Powered by the active ingredient tetraconazole, both products offer optimized systemic movement to provide comprehensive internal protection, helping plants stay healthier from the inside out. Affiance also contains azoxystrobin, which enhances overall plant vitality—promoting stronger stalk and root development and contributing to an average yield boost of 11 bu/A in corn and 4 bu/A in soybeans. Affiance and Domark also offer excellent protection against a broad spectrum of diseases such as Tar Spot, Northern Corn Leaf Blight, and Grey Leaf Spot in corn and Frogeye Leaf Spot and White Mold in soybeans. The true advantage of Affiance and Domark lies in early application, maximizing disease suppression while unlocking the full plant health benefits that support resilience, vigor, and higher yields throughout the growing season.

Farmers face increasing challenges with controlling weeds that threaten the yields and health of their soybean crops. Particularly concerning are herbicide-resistant species like Palmer amaranth, which are becoming increasingly difficult to manage with conventional strategies. Complicating farmer decision-making are changing environmental conditions, with problematic weeds spreading to new places, and uncertain market demand. Farmers need soybeans that meet their productivity needs while providing flexible options for how, where, and when to apply crop protection products on their fields. Vyconic soybeans change this dynamic by offering a unique solution. Instead of choosing between soybean varieties compatible with one, two, or three herbicides, Vyconic soybeans provide tolerance to the most common and effective herbicides currently available in soybeans. In addition to glufosinate, glyphosate, 2,4-D, and dicamba, Vyconic adds tolerance to the selective herbicide Mesotrione. This means that farmers can ensure better weed control that meets their specific needs without sacrificing their crop’s yield potential. What's Next for Vyconic? At Bayer, we’re dedicated to furthering regenerative agriculture practices that both satisfy growers’ needs and our responsibility to the environment. Vyconic soybeans are just one example of how we are adopting flexible products that meet farmers needs where those needs are greatest.
Your corn herbicide might work now, but can you guarantee for how long? HPPD inhibitor herbicides are common and effective tools for weed control, having been in the market for nearly 40 years, but continued use is causing resistance. The future of HPPD inhibitors for weed control is uncertain unless growers implement changes to limit the spread of its resistance. Learn more about preventing HPPD resistance with Verdict® herbicide. Signs of HPPD Resistance Are you experiencing HPPD resistance already? The evolution of resistant weeds is slowly but steadily growing. Some signs of HPPD resistance include: Struggling to get total control, even with normal or increased herbicide application rates. Finding new weed escapes you’ve never dealt with before. Using additional post-emergent applications or rescue treatments to gain control. Methods of HPPD Resistance Prevention Target-site resistance is one way weeds develop herbicide resistance, according to the Ohio Country Journal . A more complicated way is non-target site resistance, which poses more complex challenges for growers and scientists to manage. Current approaches to weed control, such as rotating modes of action or tank-mixing multiple modes of action, on their own are not enough. While cultural and mechanical measures aid resistance prevention and help protect the long-term viability of HPPD inhibitor technology, incorporating a non-HPPD solution, such as Verdict herbicide, is also effective. Verdict® Herbicide for HPPD Resistance Prevention Verdict® Herbicide from BASF is a corn pre-emergent herbicide that helps break the cycle of resistance. Verdict, powered by Kixor® herbicide, helps control weeds without HPPD. It has proven effectiveness with up to eight weeks of board spectrum residual control, multiple sites of action to stop weeds from establishing, and residual effects to keep them away. By 2025, BASF will be the only company with a complete non-HPPD acre offering, including pre- and post-emerge solutions. See how a BASF non-HPPD corn herbicide program that includes Verdict herbicide makes sense for your farm with the Grow Smart Advantage tool, or connect with your local BASF representative for product advice and consultation.
