Product Overview
A vigorous start for your field peas, chickpeas, soybeans and sunflowers is important for maximizing yield potential.
A fall application of Authority® Supreme herbicide, applied with or without glyphosate, can help keep fields clean in the early spring to give you time to seed into a clean field for a vigorous start. It provides extended 2-in-1 protection against many tough grassy and broadleaf weeds – while spreading out your workload between fall and spring.
Authority® Supreme herbicide requires moisture to be activated. By applying in the fall, it will move into soil water with the snowmelt and/or an early spring rainfall, becoming available for uptake by emerging weeds. By controlling weeds before they emerge in the spring, there’s less competition for water and nutrients. That means a better start for your crop.
Many weeds are resistant to one or more herbicide Groups. The actives in Authority® Supreme herbicide provide activity on the following resistant weeds: redroot pigweed (Groups 2 and 5), lamb’s-quarters (Group 2), cleavers (Groups 2 and 4), kochia (Groups 2 and 9), wild buckwheat (Group 2) and wild oats (Group 1).
