Valor™ Herbicide, with the active ingredient flumioxazin, is a low use rate herbicide being developed by Valent USA Corporation in peanuts, soybeans, sugarcane, cotton, grapes, and almonds. Flumioxazin is an N-phenylphthalimide herbicide. The mode of action is inhibition of protoporphyrinogen oxidase, which leads to a disruption of the cell membrane. Flumioxazin rapidly degrades in water and soil, therefore leaching potential to groundwater is low and carryover potential to rotational crops is minimal. Because some weed species have developed resistance to several classes of herbicides, VALOR will offer growers a resistance management tool by controlling a broad spectrum of weeds, including ALS and triazine resistant weeds. VALOR also has demonstrated excellent soil and foliar activity.
