Liberty ULTRA – Powered by Glu-L Technology, is the latest innovation from the BASF Liberty herbicide line and will give farmers a new post knockdown tool for broad spectrum weed control in glufosinate tolerant crops says Liam Vincent a technical marketing manager with BASF.

Liberty ULTRA herbicide is designed to control grasses and broadleaf weeds like waterhemp, palmer amaranth, and giant ragweed in glufosinate-tolerant soybeans, cotton, canola, and corn.

Vincent says the new Liberty ULTRA herbicide will pave the way for several Glu-L Technology based premix herbicides to come from BASF.

Pending an anticipated EPA approval in late 2023, Liam Vincent says Liberty ULTRA herbicide should be available for Iowa’s growers to use in the near future.
