Chemical selector
The Pesticide Selector includes suggestions for chemical control of pests in Kansas crops, which are provided by K-State Research and Extension, and may not be relevant for states other than Kansas. We will continue to expand this tool for help in selecting other types of agricultural chemicals, and for other states. Contact the myFields Team if you are interested in contributing content!

Crop type: Corn
Application type: Postemergence
These herbicides are a premix of Resolve Q and a dry formulation of Callisto for postemergence broadleaf and grass weed control in field corn. Realm Q can be applied to corn up to 20 inches tall or to 7-leaf corn, whichever comes first. Apply Realm Q with NIS or COC and a nitrogen source, UAN or AMS. Best control will be obtained when Realm Q is applied to corn less than 12 inches tall, grass weeds less than 2 inches tall, and broadleaf weeds less than 5 inches tall. Realm Q may be tank mixed with glyphosate when applied to corn containing the Roundup Ready gene and may be tank mixed with Liberty when applied to corn with the Liberty Link gene. Do not apply more than 1 oz/ai rimsulfuron (an active ingredient in Basis, Prequel, Resolve SG, Resolve Q, or Steadfast Q) in a cropping season.
