ONE PASS. ZERO DOUBTS.
CORVUS® PRE-EMERGENCE CORN HERBICIDE DELIVERS CONSISTENT
ONE-PASS GRASS AND BROADLEAF WEED CONTROL ALL SEASON LONG.
CORVUS IN BRIEF
Corvus® herbicide delivers consistent broad-spectrum
control of grass and broadleaf weeds for a full season at
just 5.6 fl oz/A.
A full rate of Corvus consistently delivers rapid burndown,
long-lasting residual and reactivation for dependable
weed control in field corn, seed corn, corn grown for
silage and fallow.
With its two modes of action, Corvus controls more
than 65 weeds, including those resistant to glyphosate-,
ALS-, PPO- and triazine-based herbicides, such as Palmer
amaranth and waterhemp. Corvus also controls tough
grasses, such as woolly cupgrass, yellow foxtail and
fall panicum.

CROP SAFETY INNOVATION
Corvus includes highly active Crop
Safety Innovation (CSI™ ) Safener
technology that has both soil and
foliar uptake. Because the safener
is active in both pre- and early-post
applications, Corvus can be used on
any soil for greater crop compatibility
and can be applied from burndown
through the V2 growth stage.
CSI Safener enables corn plants to better withstand
herbicidal activity, which can lead to increased root
growth and plant health.

Corvus goes to work quickly and controls weeds through
canopy closure, whether conditions turn wet or even hot
and dry. Just a half inch of rain reactivates Corvus and
boosts its weed control properties.
Corvus can be applied at ounces per acre vs. pints or quarts
per acre required by other herbicides. Its extremely low use
rate means growers face less shipping, storage and handling,
and fewer jugs.
The addition of atrazine will enhance and extend the weed
control of Corvus herbicide.
Corvus translocates through the roots and shoots of
weeds to provide rapid burndown and long-lasting
residual control, making it perfect for no-till and
minimum-till programs.

Corvus provides season-long weed control, as shown in this treated vs. untreated check.
MODES OF ACTION

EXCELLENT RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT TOOL

Corvus combines the strength of two modes of action to
take down weeds.

Corvus is a valuable tool to help growers manage tough
weeds, such as Palmer amaranth, marestail, common
ragweed, lambsquarters and waterhemp. By integrating
Corvus into their herbicide program, growers can more
effectively manage glyphosate-, ALS-, PPO- and triazineresistant or tolerant weed populations, and preserve
the viability of other herbicides.

The first, commonly known as a bleacher, inhibits the
4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) enzyme,
which is key to the production of pigments and development
of chloroplasts in plant tissues. By inhibiting pigment and
chloroplast biosyntheses, emerging plant tissue is bleached
from green to white or pale yellow and ultimately dies. These
symptoms often appear after a half inch or more of rain on
weeds that emerge during a dry period following planting.
The second mode of action is the inhibition of the
acetolactate synthase enzyme, which results in the inability
of weeds to produce three essential branched-chain amino
acids. Lack of amino acids prevents the production of the
plant proteins required for normal growth and development,
which ultimately results in weed death.

FLEXIBLE CROP ROTATION
Corvus is compatible with many cropping systems and
enables growers to readily rotate from corn to other key
crops with little or no delay. See the Flexible Crop Rotation
chart below. Growers who use Corvus can plant wheat after
a 4-month rotational interval and soybeans after a 9-month
interval. Dry beans and sugarbeets require a 17-month
rotational interval.

The amount of cumulative precipitation required before planting a rotational crop is in addition to the required rotational interval given in months. Furrow or flood irrigation should not be included in total. No more than 7 inches of
overhead irrigation should be included in total.
Crop varieties planted back at intervals of one year or less should not have known acute sensitivity to ALS-inhibiting and/or SU herbicides.

When soil pH is 7.5 or above, crop plantback should be delayed to the next interval, and to 24 months for crops listed in the 17-month interval above.
4
When Corvus is used at 2.25 fl oz /A or less and the total of thiencarbazone-methyl from all sources is 0.014 lb AI/A or less, sorghum can be planted at the 9-month or more interval.

APPLICATION TIMING

TANKMIX PARTNERS

Corvus may be applied either preplant, pre-plant
incorporated (less than 2 inches deep), pre-emergence
or early postemergence. Even if weather or time-delays
postpone applications, Corvus can still be used through
the 2-leaf collar growth stage (V2).

Atrazine is a preferred tankmix partner with Corvus, as
the two herbicides work together to enhance weed control
beyond what the two components offer individually.
Corvus is an excellent tankmix partner for numerous
herbicides, including 2,4-D, Autumn™, Autumn Super,
Buctril®, Define® SC, Liberty® and glyphosate-based
herbicides. See the Corvus label for a complete listing of
compatible herbicides and usage rates.

USE RATES
Corvus is used at ounces per acre vs. pints or quarts per
acre required with other herbicides. A full rate of Corvus
at the 5.6 fl oz/A rate provides consistent one-pass weed
control all season long. See the label and chart below for
additional information on use rates.

EXCELLENT WEED CONTROL WITH
ADDED FLEXIBILITY
Corvus can be used in conventional, minimum and
no-till crop management systems. Corvus has the
flexibility to fit into traditional herbicide programs or in
a weed control program with Liberty on LibertyLink®
hybrids or with glyphosate on Roundup Ready® hybrids.

If soils are 2.0 percent or less in O.M. and have a pH of 7.5 or greater, the rate selected from the table above can be reduced by 0.5 fl oz/A.

Corvus may be applied alone or in recommended tankmixes up to 21 days prior to planting. Corvus may be applied up to 30 days prior to planting when used in a planned sequential application program such as Corvus followed
by Liberty, Buctril, Laudis® or other postemergence-applied herbicides appropriate for control of the target weeds.
4
For coarse-textured soils with greater than 2.0 percent O.M., or medium-textured soils with 2.0 percent O.M. or less and where densities of weeds controlled by Corvus herbicide are light to moderate, an appropriate rate down
to 4.5 fl oz/A may be selected.

A full rate of Corvus at the 5.6 fl oz/A rate provides consistent one-pass weed control all season long. See the label and chart below for additional information on use rates. EXCELLENT WEED CONTROL WITH ADDED FLEXIBILITY Corvus can be used in conventional, minimum and no-till crop management systems. Corvus has the flexibility to fit into traditional herbicide programs or in a weed control program with Liberty on LibertyLink® hybrids or with glyphosate on Roundup Ready® hybrids.
