How to treat each type of area 9

Corn

Target pest	Location	Rate	Unit	Label notes
Preplant Annual and perennial broadleaf seedlings and existing cover crops	Outdoor	1 pint	pint	Planting of corn must be delayed a minimum of 7 days after application at rates from 1 to 2 pints per acre, or 14 days at rates from 1 to 2 pints per acre.
Preemergence Broadleaf and annual grasses	Outdoor	2.1	pints	Do not use on sandy soils or unacceptable crop injury may result.
Postemergence Annual broadleaf weeds	Outdoor	1/2	pint	Apply when corn is less than 8 inches tall, but avoid crop injury due to late defoliation. Sweet corn: minimize injury by following rate limits.
Perennial broadleaf weeds	Outdoor	3/4 to 1	pint	Apply when weeds are in bud stage. Sweet corn: follow specific rate limits.

Soybeans

Target pest	Location	Rate	Unit	Label notes
Preplant Annual and perennial broadleaf weeds	Outdoor	1 to 2.1	pints	Apply 1-1/2 to 2 inches deep. Seed furrow must be completely closed or severe injury will result.

Grain Sorghum

Target pest	Location	Rate	Unit	Label notes
Postemergence Annual broadleaf weeds	Outdoor	1/2	pint	Apply to plants that are 5 to 15 inches tall or from boot to early dough stage.
Perennial broadleaf weeds	Outdoor	2/3 to 1	pint	The higher rate may be needed for some weeds, but chances of injury may increase.

Small Grains (Not underseeded with legumes)

Target pest	Location	Rate	Unit	Label notes
Postemergence Spring wheat, barley, and rye Annual and biennial weeds	Outdoor	1/2 to 2	pints	Apply when grain is in full tiller stage (4 to 8 inches high) but before boot stage. Up to 3 pints per acre may be used to control difficult weeds, but crop damage is possible.
