This document summarizes the LibertyLink system for weed control in soybeans, canola, cotton, and corn. The LibertyLink trait allows farmers to use Liberty herbicide to control tough weeds like Palmer amaranth, giant ragweed, and waterhemp. Liberty provides fast-acting control of weeds within days when applied early, before weeds reach 3-4 inches. Following application guidelines is important to ensure adequate coverage. Using Liberty as part of an integrated weed management program helps control difficult weeds and protect crop yields.

1. LIBERTY®
OVERVIEW
• LibertyLink®
plus Liberty®
herbicide is highly effective
against even the toughest weeds to help preserve the yield of
high-performing varieties.
• The LibertyLink trait allows growers to spray Liberty in-crop
for nonselective postemergence control of the toughest
weeds, including Palmer amaranth, giant ragweed, waterhemp
and marestail.
• With a unique mode of action, spray Liberty early to control
weeds quickly before they jeopardize yield potential.
• The high-performance LibertyLink trait is widely available across
crops — canola, cotton, corn and soybeans — including leading
brands such as FiberMax®
and Stoneville®
cotton, InVigor®
canola
and more than 100 brands of corn and soybeans.
Year One: Roundup Ready®
Soybeans Year Two: LibertyLink Soybeans
TOUGH WEEDS DEMAND EVEN
TOUGHER WEED CONTROL.
• Follow application guidelines to ensure adequate
coverage of Liberty herbicide.
-- Apply early when weeds are no more than
3 to 4 inches tall.
-- Apply Liberty at 15 GPA of water; increase
water if dense weed canopy exists.
-- Use nozzles and pressure that generate a
medium-sized spray droplet.
-- Apply at ground speed of less than 15 mph to
attain adequate coverage.
-- Apply when wind speeds are less than 10 mph.
The field on the left was planted to Roundup Ready soybeans and overrun with glyphosate-resistant weeds. One year later, the same field was planted to LibertyLink
soybeans and treated with Liberty herbicide, effectively controlling glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth.

WEED MANAGEMENT
Using Liberty herbicide with the LibertyLink trait as
part of an Integrated Weed Management program
helps ensure control of the toughest weeds that
continually jeopardize crops, including Palmer
amaranth, giant ragweed, waterhemp and marestail.
Liberty is a contact-based herbicide that requires
good coverage for maximum weed control efficacy.
Spraying early when weeds are no more than
3 to 4 inches tall eliminates them quickly and
reduces the chance that they will rob crops of their
yield potential.
Liberty works fast, controlling weeds within days
versus weeks, under favorable growing conditions.
Weeds that emerge after the application will not
be controlled, but adding a herbicide tankmix
partner for residual control can help keep fields
clean longer.
