Pyridine carboxylate herbicidal compositions: Corteva AgriscienceRecent Research Landscape

Engineering specific pyridine carboxylate molecular structures to selectively inhibit plant growth. This creates value through high-potency weed control with crop-specific safener compatibility.

What technical problems is Corteva Agriscience addressing in Pyridine carboxylate herbicidal compositions?

Insufficient weed control spectrum

(28)evidences

Individual herbicides often fail to control a broad range of resistant or diverse weed species. Combining pyridine carboxylates with HPPD inhibitors or non-selective herbicides addresses the limitation of narrow efficacy windows.

Active ingredient chemical instability

(15)evidences

The keywords highlight the use of specific organic solvents and oil-based concentrates to stabilize growth regulators and herbicides. Overcoming solubility limitations ensures uniform application and prevents precipitation of the active compounds.
