GENERAL INFORMATION
Frontier Max Plus will provide control of most annual grass and broadleaf weeds in field and sweet corn. Most effective weed control is obtained when Frontier Max Plus is applied and subsequently incorporated into soil by rainfall or mechanical tillage prior to weed seedling emergence from soil.
Frontier Max Plus can be applied early preplant, pre-plant incorporated, pre-emergence or early post-emergence to field corn either alone and/or in tank-mix combination. Frontier Max Plus may also be applied to sweet corn pre-plant incorporated or preemergence. Apply Frontier Max Plus at a labeled rate once per year.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1. When applying Frontier Max Plus, always start with a clean sprayer. Thoroughly clean the sprayer by flushing the system with water containing detergent. Refer to previously applied product labels for specific cleaning instructions.
2. Fill clean spray tank one-half full of clean water and start agitation system.
3. If using a water dispersible granule tank mix partner, add correct amount to tank and continue agitation until thoroughly dispersed.
4. Add the correct amount of Frontier Max Plus and continue to agitate.
5. If required, add the correct amount of the liquid, solution or suspension tank mix partner while continuing agitation.
6. Continue agitation while filling the spray tank with the remaining amount of water.
7. Maintain continuous and constant agitation throughout application until spraying is complete. If spray mixture is allowed to settle at any time, thorough gentle agitation is required to re-suspend the mixture before spraying is resumed. Do not allow the mixture to sit over night.
8. Immediately after use, thoroughly clean the sprayer by flushing the system with clean water containing detergent. Refer to specific tank mix partner label for cleanup instructions. Dispose of all rinsings in accordance with provincial regulations.

RECROPPING GUIDELINES
In the event of crop failure in fields treated with Frontier Max Plus, only field corn can be planted as a rescue crop. Except for sugar beets and tobacco, all other crops may be planted one year after application of Frontier Max Plus at label rates. When extended periods of dry weather occur during the year of treatment, there can be some injury to succeeding crops such as white beans, onions, peas, tomatoes and turnips. Injury is most likely to occur when the seedling crop is subjected to periods of stress, such as abnormally hot, dry weather.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT FOR GROUND APPLICATIONS
General Information
Use good pesticide practices and apply only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity such as houses, cottages, schools and parks is minimal. Take into consideration wind speed, wind direction, temperature inversions, application equipment and sprayer settings used for application.
For the protection of non-target habitats, over-spray or drift to any body of water or other environmentally sensitive habitat must be avoided. The interaction of equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering all these factors when making application decisions.
Field Sprayer Application
DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the weed canopy or ground.
DO NOT apply by air.
