A groundbreaking solution has emerged in the agricultural sector with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approving a new preemergent herbicide for corn. This innovative product, Intrava DX, promises robust control over a wide range of weeds, including those resistant to atrazine and HPPD inhibitors. Developed by UPL Corp., this herbicide is set to make its debut this season, offering farmers an effective tool against persistent weed challenges.

The introduction of Intrava DX marks a significant advancement in crop protection technology. It underscores UPL's commitment to developing cutting-edge solutions that address the evolving needs of modern agriculture. By providing farmers with a reliable and durable herbicide, Intrava DX empowers them to enhance productivity while promoting sustainable farming practices. This innovation paves the way for future advancements in the Intrava brand portfolio, contributing to the broader goal of advancing agricultural sustainability.
