PowerCore® is a pyramid of Bt traits that combines three proteins to deliver broad spectrum protection against above-ground pests. This season-long insect control is specialized for areas with minimal rootworm pressure to protect your high-yielding corn crop.
The Enlist™ corn trait adds a new 2,4-D tolerance to the glyphosate system and tolerance to FOP herbicides in corn. And Enlist Duo® herbicide with Colex-D® technology, a blend of new 2,4-D choline and glyphosate, provides exceptional weed control designed to land and stay on target. The stacked technology of PowerCore Enlist corn enables you to control insects and the toughest weeds in your fields.
Corn Earworm (CEW)

Tunnels through stalk to feed on all above-ground parts of corn plant
Southwestern Corn Borer (SWCB)

Fall Armyworm (FAW)
Feeds on young corn, emergence to waist-high, to destroy entire plants and feeds on developing ears
IRM Guidelines
Today’s in-plant protection traits are the most convenient, effective way to control yield-robbing insects. In fact, good stewardship and Insect Resistance Management (IRM) — including the right refuge — can help protect the future of your farm.
That’s why you should look to the multiple modes of action of PowerCore, trait technology, which reduces the refuge requirement from 20 percent to 5 percent in the Corn Belt.1
