Narrow efficacy ranges and weed resistance limit the utility of single-active herbicides in diverse crop environments. Expanding the range of controlled species prevents yield loss and reduces the need for multiple separate applications.

Individual herbicide active ingredients often fail to control a sufficiently broad range of weed species or resistant biotypes. Combining diverse modes of action addresses the limitation of narrow efficacy and prevents weed escapes.

Existing chemical treatments fail to eliminate biotypes that have evolved tolerance. Overcoming this resistance ensures crop yield protection and prevents weed proliferation.

Individual herbicides fail to eliminate diverse or resistant weed populations. Expanding the range of targeted species prevents crop yield loss and reduces the need for multiple separate applications.
