Growers of field, seed and sweet corn in Eastern Canada will get another herbicide option this year for use against broadleaf weeds and grasses in their crops.

BASF Canada on Monday announced it has picked up regulatory approval for Armezon, carrying the active ingredient topramezone, in Eastern Canada.

Armezon will be classified in herbicide Group 27, alongside the actives in products such as Syngenta?s Callisto and Bayer?s Converge.

The new brand is a revival by BASF, which had previously marketed topramezone in the East under the name Impact. Armezon, like Impact, will be sold in suspension form at a concentration of 336 grams per litre.

Armezon?s label clears it for tank mixes with atrazine; atrazine and glyphosate; and atrazine and BASF?s dimethenamid-P (Group 15) herbicide Frontier Max.

The product "will offer growers the crop safety and application flexibility they?re looking for in seed, sweet and field corn," Andrew Elgersma, the company?s marketing manager for eastern herbicides, said in a release.
