Acuron® outperforms and outyields other corn herbicides because it contains multiple, effective sites of action, including bicyclopyrone, for effective weed control and resistance management. Let your corn focus on growth and grain fill instead of weed competition with Acuron, the only corn herbicide shown in replicated trials to outyield competitors by 5‐15 bu/A.*
Acuron is a Restricted Use Pesticide.
With four effective herbicide active ingredients (AIs), including the unique component bicyclopyrone, Acuron helps prevent early-season weed competition giving you more bushels in the bin this season, while minimizing the number of weed seeds deposited into your soil, giving you a cleaner start next season.

Applied before crop emergence, Acuron provides built-in burndown and residual control that can help prevent your corn from emerging in the presence of nutrient- and yield-robbing weeds.
Containing 4 effective AIs and 3 sites of action, Acuron is the top herbicide solution for resistance management, controlling your toughest grass and broadleaf weeds, including resistant weed biotypes.
Acuron protects corn from yield-robbing weeds and outyields other herbicides by 5 to 15 bu/A*, equaling more bushels in your bin and more profit in your pocket.
When applied preemergence and at full label rates, Acuron helps you discover 5-15 more bushels per acre than with any other herbicide for corn because it controls tough, yield-robbing weeds better.* Less weed competition translates into more nutrients, sunlight and water available for the growing corn crop, which leads to an increase in corn yield and revenue potential.

"We’ve been using Acuron for several years. We’ve been really happy with this product and the way it performs. It’s been excellent with all types of weeds, especially holding back any type of grass pressure. I can’t remember a time that we’ve had to come back in because of some type of weed escaping. That means a lot when you only have to go in and spray one time and not have to worry about it the rest of the season. I’d recommend this product to all my neighbors and anyone who would ask about it."

"Acuron is the gold-standard of preemergence corn herbicides for weed-free rows throughout the entirety of the growing season. It has consistently performed on our farm in Central Illinois, even in the presence of a variety of herbicide-resistant weeds. The strength of its 4 active ingredients – bicyclopyrone, mesotrione, S-metolachlor and atrazine – allow it to pack a powerful punch up front while also layering in long-lasting residuals. Many competitive products offer early-season prowess, yet few can stand toe-to-toe with Acuron deep into the growing season. If you value high performance from your products and low competition from weeds, Acuron by Syngenta is the herbicide for your operation!"
