Bayer CropScience’s new herbicide, Corvus, is now commercially available for growers in Eastern Canada for the 2022 season. 

Corvus provides season-long control of broadleaf and grass weeds, including glyphosate-resistant weeds in field and seed corn.  

It combines Group 2 and 27 modes of action, and can be applied pre-emerge, pre-plant incorporated, or early post emerge (two leaf) to maximize its usage.
