new technology
Igrowth® is the first commercially available non-GMO, herbicide-tolerant innovation for grain and forage sorghum in the world. The technology allows for pre- or post-emergent control of broadleaf and grass weeds using the UPL companion herbicide IMIFLEX™ (imazamox), the only imazamox herbicide registered for use with igrowth. Together, igrowth hybrids and IMIFLEX herbicide create a groundbreaking system that controls Texas panicum, foxtail, and a variety of tough weeds so you can improve your productivity, boost your return on investment and grow like never before.
