SAFACYN® ET
A new standard in harvest aid and weed management. This advanced formulation delivers fast and complete crop and weed dry down, while also enabling flexibility to use...
Pre-Harvest / Harvest Aid
KEY BENEFITS:
• Faster, more complete crop and weed dry down: Delivers consistent dry down for a faster, more efficient harvest.
• Flexible adjuvant options: Choose the adjuvant type and rate that best fits your crop, weed pressure and environmental conditions.
• Improved harvest efficiency: Supports easier cutting, faster combining, reduced fuel use, and lower dockage.
• Flexible fit across multiple cropping systems: Fits with all canola herbicide systems and is registered across a wide range of crops including canola, cereals, peas, and soybeans.
• Cleaner fields next spring: Helps manage late-season weeds and sets fields up for a cleaner start next season.
HARVEST AID & PRE-HARVEST WEED MANAGEMENT:
Improved dry down of Volunteer Canola (all types including Roundup Ready®), Common Ragweed, Canada Fleabane, Redroot Pigweed and Wild Buckwheat. Consult the glyphosate label regarding additional pre-harvest weed control.
SAFACYN® ET may be used as a harvest aid to accelerate the rate of dry down for crop and green weeds and improve crop uniformity to facilitate direct combining of soybeans, dry beans and canola. Early application may result in yield loss.
HOW IT WORKS:
SAFACYN® ET is quickly absorbed into the plant and works by blocking an important enzyme called protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO), which is essential for normal plant function. When PPO is inhibited, the weed’s cell membranes are damaged, causing the plant to die. Under active growing conditions, susceptible weeds can show symptoms within hours of application, with complete plant death typically occurring within 3–5 days depending on environmental conditions.
For Pre-Seed Pre-Emergent refer to Tech Sheet and Label.
General Info
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Fill clean tank 1/2 to 3/4 full of clean water and turn agitation on.
2. Add the required amount of SAFACYN® ET herbicide and continue to agitate.
3. If required, add the correct amount of tank-mix partner while agitating.
4. Add the required amount of adjuvant while agitating.
5. Continue agitating and fill the remainder of the spray tank with water.
NOTE: If tank-mixing, please reference the label of the partner for specific mixing order or follow WAMLEGS for proper mixing protocol.
ADJUVANT RATE:
Add 30% phosphate ester surfactant, MSO adjuvant, Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) (e.g. Merge Adjuvant, Addit® Adjuvant) at 0.5 – 1% v/v or a non-ionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v.
PRE-HARVEST INTERVAL FOR HARVEST AID AND PRE-HARVEST USE PATTERNS*:
Dry Beans: 2 days
Soybeans, Canola, Wheat, Barley & Triticale: 3 days
When using a tank-mix partner always refer to the PHI of that product.
* For tank mixtures with glyphosate make sure to follow the glyphosate’s PHI.
GRAZING RESTRICTION:
• Dry Beans, Soybeans: Do not graze or feed treated hay or straw to livestock.
• Canola, Wheat, Barley & Triticale: Straw can be used as feed or grazed 3 days after pre-harvest application.
REGISTERED AND SUPPORTED TANK MIXES:
• Glyphosate
STORAGE:
Do not freeze.
Always read and follow label directions.
For a complete list of all crops, rates and insects controlled in each please refer to the label.
