By Cotton Grower Staff|June 29, 2021

Nufarm Americas Inc. is launching Longbow EC, the latest in the company’s portfolio of herbicides and harvest aids.

“Carfentrazone-ethyl, the active ingredient in Longbow EC, has been a mainstay in grower’s agronomic plans for decades, providing a multi-faceted tool that can be used as both a broadleaf herbicide and defoliant.” said Chris Bowley, Nufarm Customer and Brand Marketing Manager.

Longbow EC is labeled for use in more than 40 crops, including cotton, corn, soybeans, peanuts, sorghum and sugarcane. Used as a defoliant and harvest aid, it helps meet challenges facing growers in the yield-critical “Harvest to Canopy” window. Used as an herbicide, the product is labeled for control of more than 60 broadleaf weed species such as various pigweeds, lambsquarter and waterhemp. It’s also an economical and flexible tank mix partner with most burndown, non-selective herbicide products.

More information about Longbow EC and other Nufarm crop protection solutions is available on the Nufarm website.
