For weed control in field corn, sweet corn, seed corn (inbred lines grown in Southern Ontario only), soybeans, dry common beans, onions (dry bulb and green), transplanted cabbage, peanuts grown in Ontario, non-bearing and bearing grape vines and commercial ornamental production

GENERAL INFORMATION
FRONTIER MAX herbicide will control most annual grass weeds and certain broadleaf weeds in field corn, sweet corn, seed corn (inbred lines grown in Southern Ontario only), soybeans, dry common beans, green onions, transplanted cabbage, peanuts grown in Ontario, non-bearing and bearing grape vines and commercial ornamental production. FRONTIER MAX herbicide will also suppress yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) in dry bulb onions and green onions, grown on muck soils.
FRONTIER MAX herbicide will provide most effective weed control when applied and subsequently incorporated into soil by rainfall or mechanical tillage prior to weed seedling emergence from soil. FRONTIER MAX herbicide can be applied as a pre-plant incorporated or pre-emergence treatment in field corn, sweet corn, seed corn (inbred lines grown in Southern Ontario only), soybeans, dry common beans, and peanuts grown in Ontario. FRONTIER MAX herbicide can also be applied as a pre-transplant treatment in transplanted cabbage, at the loop stage of onions (dry bulb and green), and as an early post-emergence treatment in field corn.
FRONTIER MAX herbicide can also be used for control of labelled broadleaf weeds and grasses as a directed spray to the base of non-bearing and bearing grape vines.
FRONTIER MAX herbicide can be mixed with other herbicides for additional weed control in field corn, soybeans and dry common beans. FRONTIER MAX herbicide tank mixes are also effective in minimum, reduced, or no-till systems in field corn and soybeans.
