Reviton®: A Proven Solution for Effective Weed Control
Reviton has established itself as a reliable non-selective herbicide for preplant burndown of broadleaf and grass weeds in corn, cotton, soybeans, and wheat. With its proprietary active ingredient, tiafenacil, Reviton continues to deliver powerful control over more than 50 broadleaf and grass weeds, ensuring fields are prepared for the cleanest start possible while protecting emerging crops against resistant weed competition.
In extensive North American product development trials and regulatory studies, Reviton has consistently demonstrated high-performance ratings in burndown efficacy for a wide range of weeds, including ALS, triazine, and glyphosate-resistant species. Its low use rate formulation, tank mix compatibility, and crop rotational flexibility make it a comprehensive solution for preplant burndown needs. Additionally, Reviton® serves as an effective desiccant for cotton.
Novel Active Ingredient
“Reviton is a unique product. It is innovative from the standpoint that it has an active ingredient that has never been registered in the U.S.,” says James Whitehead, Lead Agronomist for HELM Crop Solutions.
“Reviton’s novel active ingredient is called Tergeo®, which is a PPO herbicide with a Group 14 classification,” he says. “While most PPO herbicides only control broadleaves with burning of grass weeds, Reviton has the ability to control both broadleaves and grasses.”
Fast-acting with herbicidal effects occurring withing 24 hours after application, Whitehead continues by saying that Reviton will provide row crop growers with an important tool for tackling resistance.
“Reviton allows growers to take the selection pressure off of chemistries like 2,4-D and dicamba while strengthening their existing integrated weed control systems for sustainable resistance management,” he adds.
Strong Start to the Season
Reviton is a next-generation burndown herbicide that quickly eliminates weeds resulting in a stronger clean start foundation for maximum yield potential and ROI.
Setting the stage for season-long success, fields treated with Reviton benefit from an earlier planting window and improved springtime efficiency while minimize the risk of yield loss due to resistance.
An excellent fit for reduced- and no-till production systems. Reviton also provides greater flexibility in crop rotation and plant back options across a variety of crops.
