Broadleaf weeds’ archnemesis,
man’s best friend
Meet Huskie® PRE, Western Canada’s first Group 27 cereal pre-burn and pre-emergent herbicide. It delivers fast-acting early-season control of tough broadleaf weeds and herbicide-resistant species — including kochia, lamb’s quarters, cleavers, and wild buckwheat.
Huskie PRE is designed to be tank-mixed with partners like Roundup Transorb® HC herbicide for powerful, reliable control. With rapid burn down activity from Group 6 bromoxynil paired with Group 27 pyrasulfotole, Huskie PRE helps you put broadleaf weeds in the doghouse.

Guard your fields using a pre-burn tank-mix
Resistant weed management:
As herbicide resistant weed pressure continues to expand, weed management tank-mix partners from Groups 4, 6, 14, 15, and 27 are critical to successful population control.
Integrated herbicide management:
Early spring management reduces your reliance on in-crop applications and supports proper crop and weed staging for in-crop applications to help optimize efficacy and performance. This gives you more breathing room for post-emergent applications that reduce in-crop weed pressure so your crop has optimized yield potential.
Effective weed control:
Broad-spectrum, early weed control reduces competition for limited spring resources such as nutrients, water, and sunlight. This leads to better growth and higher yield potential
Boost your in-crop herbicides:
Huskie PRE is a great burndown partner ahead of your in-crop herbicides. When used ahead of halauxifen or Varro® FX tank-mixed with a permissible bromoxynil like Buctril® M, it helps control key weeds early, so they can do their job more effectively.
Huskie PRE is a great fit for:
Wheat, barley and triticale producers
Combatting resistant broadleaf weed species
Adopting a "systems approach" that encompasses burndown and post-emergent applications
Those planning to use in-crop applications of permissible halauxifen products or Varro FX tank-mixed with Buctril M
Managing application timing and product performance using strong pre-burn and in-crop management practices
On Guard All Season
In addition to outstanding pre-burn broadleaf weed control, incorporating Huskie PRE into your pre-burn lineup has been shown to improve uptake of in-crop applications of bromoxynil. The graph below shows 97.1% kochia control 14 days after using Huskie PRE + Roundup, followed by in-crop application of Varro FX + Buctril M. In comparison, when using only Varro FX and Buctril M without a pre-burn control, the results showed a lower rate of 67.8% kochia control.
