FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (January 30, 2025 \u2013 Alsip, IL) \u2013 Nufarm Americas Inc. announced that Scorch\u00ae<\/sup> EXT Herbicide has received 24(c) registration in Colorado for broadleaf weed control in fallow and eco-fallow fields. A herbicide premix powered by Nufarm\u2019s proprietary Duplosan\u00ae<\/sup> technology, Scorch EXT<\/a> was developed in response to the increasing threat of kochia, including biotypes resistant to glyphosate, dicamba, 2,4-D and\/or fluroxypyr in groups 2, 5, 9 and 14.<\/p>\n

Surveys by the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) have increasingly identified kochia among the most troublesome weeds pressuring cereal grains, field corn and grain sorghum growers, making kochia control in fallow a critical management requirement.<\/p>\n

Research by leading Colorado State University and Kansas State University weed scientists, including Dr. Lovreet Shergill, Dr. Phil Westra and Dr. Vipan Kumar, has verified resistance to glyphosate, dicamba, 2,4-D and\/or fluroxypyr in various populations of kochia. Additionally, kochia biotypes resistant to more than one herbicide have grown substantially in recent years.<\/p>\n

\u201cExpanding the use of Scorch EXT to fallow ground in Colorado is critical to address the challenges of resistant kochia on a regional basis,\u201d said Daniel Beran, Ph.D., Nufarm Director of Technical Services Ag USA. \u201cField trials of Scorch EXT have shown it is a very effective solution for biotypes of kochia resistant to multiple other herbicides in the Great Plains.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scorch EXT features a combination of dichlorprop-p, dicamba and 2,4-D. Dichlorprop-p is an active ingredient historically used in mixtures for brush control that remained unexplored until recently. In the past few years, university and third-party research with Scorch EXT has demonstrated excellent and very consistent control of kochia. Scorch EXT is an ideal option where resistant kochia and other tough-to-control broadleaf weeds are a threat. Previously approved in Kansas and Montana, it\u2019s now labeled in Colorado under a 24(c) label for use in fallow or eco-fallow fields to control kochia, Russian thistle, common lambsquarters, Canada thistle, Palmer amaranth, wild mustard and tansy mustard.<\/p>\n

In addition to the 24(c) labels in Kansas<\/a>, Colorado<\/a> and Montana<\/a>, Scorch EXT is also approved for IVM applications, including general farmstead and non-crop areas including rights-of-way, fence rows and industrial sites. It is currently pending EPA registration for additional crop uses.<\/p>\n
