“HighNoon offers an unmatched combination of use site flexibility, safety on desirable grasses and forbes, and an extensive weed control spectrum,” says Jill Zeller, portfolio marketing leader, Corteva. “That’s why we’re so excited to introduce HighNoon nationally – we know it works, and we have years of experience with HighNoon in managed lands in the West to back that up.”

A Product the Industry
Can Trust

HighNoon combines two powerful active ingredients, Rinskor® and aminopyralid, to provide selective activity that helps maintain desirable grasses and forbs while controlling some of the vegetation manager’s most troublesome weeds like annual and biannual thistles, poison hemlock and wild parsnip. In addition, HighNoon has no signal word thus it offers safer handling.”

“HighNoon offers excellent flexibility and low odor,” says Will Hatler, field scientist, Corteva. “It can be used up to water’s edge, and for those who spray sites close to pastures, HighNoon has no grazing restrictions. Add the fact that Rinskor earned the Green Chemistry Challenge Award from the American Chemical Society’s Green Chemistry Institute, and you have added assurance this product has a lighter environmental footprint and is a good option for public spaces.”

HighNoon gives vegetation managers an easy-to-use liquid formulation that mixes well with other products to offer extended broadleaf weed control, along with control of troublesome woody species like salt cedar and Russian olive and so many others.
