“Corteva is at the forefront of soybean herbicide innovation,” said Drake Robards, Portfolio Marketing Lead, Soybean Herbicides, Corteva. “In the past few years, we’ve expanded our soybean herbicide portfolio to better meet the needs of farmers, maximize yield potential and optimizemanagement decisions. The launch of Enclosa herbicide is the latest advancement that will give farmers an additional option for flexible and convenient control.”
With the launch of Enversa herbicide in 2025, farmers have experienced the proprietary encapsulated acetochlor from Corteva moves quickly off plant tissue to drive to the soil, establishing a residual barrier against weeds. Building on the success of Enversa herbicide, Enclosa herbicide will feature a combination of encapsulated acetochlor and cloransulam in a convenient premix to provide farmers with residual and systemic control of more than 36 tough broadleaf weeds and grasses in pre- and post-emergence applications.

The addition of cloransulam will enable farmers to tackle tough weeds and reduce the threat of resistance.”
The Enclosa herbicide will offer a wide application window to fit a variety of geographical herbicide programs and help farmers overcome challenging weather conditions. Flexibility goes beyond application timing, as the new herbicide will be a strong tank-mix partner for products containingmetribuzin or sulfentrazone in pre-emergence herbicide systems and glyphosate or glufosinate in post-emergence programs. Enclosa herbicide also will be an excellent complement to Enlist One® herbicide, a benefit for farmers who plant Enlist E3® soybeans. Additionally, the new soybean herbicide will come in an easy-to-use liquid premix, delivering convenience at the tank.
The initial sales of Enclosa herbicide are anticipated later this year for use in the 2027 growing season. To learn more about Enclosa herbicide, talk with your local Corteva representative or visit Corteva.us/Enclosa.
