GDU (Growing Degree Unit)Although maturity of one corn product relative to another remains reasonably constant, the actual number of calendar days from planting to any given point of plant development varies with temperature, day length, rate and date of planting, soil fertility and other environmental factors. All GDU values calculated are from the time of planting.
New (MY24) Product Naming SystemNew product names have been updated to reflect their most important characteristics.For example:
Products developed before MY23 will continue to use their original names. Herbicide ToleranceRatings are based on observations and research using herbicides at labeled and above labeled rates to simulate extreme environmental conditions, misapplication and adverse soil pH or organic content.A AcceptableEither no adverse effects from the corn product/herbicide combination were noted on any trials or only slight damage could be noted under adverse conditions or herbicide application at higher than label rates.
C CautionThe corn product/herbicide combination is usually not a problem if sprayed according to label directions, but can result in plant height reductions, stand loss and suspected yield loss under very adverse environmental conditions, high rates or extreme soil pH levels or organic content. Use drop nozzle spraying for postemergence herbicides to avoid interactions.
W WarningNot advised — this corn product/herbicide combination should not be used under any circumstances.
