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
Apply bromoxynil when broadleaf weeds are small and growing actively but before they reach size limits listed on the label. Contact action requires thorough coverage. Bromoxynil is safer for corn than 2,4-D or dicamba. No residual activity. Can be tank mixed with atrazine, Callisto, dicamba, or 2,4-D. Do not feed forage or allow grazing within 30 days of treatment. Follow label directions.
