TECHNOLOGY OPTIONS

CROPLAN GENETICS Brand sunflower seed offers several solutions for weed and insect control, and for planting accuracy.

Clearfield® Sunflower
Clearfield® Sunflower is produced with conventional breeding for use with Beyond® herbicide to control postemergent weeds. As the only postemergent broadleaf weed control hybrid for sunflower, Clearfield® Sunflower is a great option for no-till or minimum-till sunflower areas or fields containing weeds that are hard to control with other herbicides. Beyond® herbicide controls both broadleaf and grassy weeds, but will not work on ALS-resistant weeds, such as kochia.
