Maximum one application of Focus or other products containing carfentrazone or pyroxasulfone per season.<br />

Use Agral 90 or Ag-Surf at 0.25 L per 100 L of spray solution or Merge at 1 L per 100 L of spray solution for emerged broadleaf<br />

weeds.<br />

Refer to the product label for complete mixing instructions for this product and its mixes. A general guide to mixing can be<br />

found on page 8.<br />

WARNING – application to emerged crops will result in severe damage to the crop.<br />

DO NOT apply Focus to:<br />

• soils with 7% or more organic matter content.<br />

• sandy soils with less than 1% organic matter content.<br />

Weeds and Staging:<br />

Control of the following weeds emerging from seed (not controlled if emerged at application):<br />

º Barnyard grass<br />

º Brome (downy,<br />

Japanese)<br />

º Cleavers<br />

º Foxtail (green, yellow)<br />

* Suppression only.<br />

º Foxtail barley*<br />

º Kochia*<br />

º Lamb's-quarters*<br />

º Pigweed (green,<br />

redroot)<br />

º Ryegrass (Italian)<br />

º Stinkweed<br />

º Waterhemp<br />

º Wild buckwheat*<br />

º Wild mustard*<br />

º Wild oats*<br />

º Velvetleaf<br />

Weed Control<br />

Application Information:<br />

• Water Volume: Minimum of 40 L per acre. Higher spray volume is required for dense weed stands. Weed control<br />

improves with the amount of coverage.<br />

• Nozzles & Pressure: Maximum 35 psi (210 kPa) when using conventional flat fan nozzles. Low drift nozzles may require<br />

higher pressures for proper performance. Use a combination of nozzles and pressure designed to deliver thorough,<br />

even coverage with ASABE medium droplets.<br />

How it Works:<br />

Refer to Table 9 on page 48.<br />

Effects of Growing Conditions:<br />

Moisture is necessary to activate the Pyroxasulfone component in soil for effective weed control. Dry weather following<br />

applications may reduce effectiveness.<br />

Extremes in environmental conditions such as temperature, moisture, soil conditions, and cultural practices may affect<br />

activity.<br />

Tank Mixes:<br />

Herbicides:<br />

• Prior to Corn only:<br />

º AAtrex (0.85 to 1.25 L per acre) (soil activity).<br />

• Prior to All Crops:<br />

º Glyphosate* (180 to 360 grams ae per acre)<br />

* IPA or K salt only.<br />

Adding ingredients in the correct order is critical for optimum performance. Check labels of products to be mixed for<br />

directions. General guidelines can be found on page 8.
