With the rush of seeding, don’t forget to apply Authority®
Authority® and Authority Charge provide long-lasting residual control of flushing broadleaves like kochia, pigweed, lambsquarters, wild buckwheat, cleavers* and others. This is important for peas, flax, chickpeas and sunflowers with limited herbicide options.
Below are some tips to ensure you don't miss out on lasting weed control:
- Plan ahead for application before or right after planting to avoid getting caught with an emerged crop.
- Authority can be applied alone or with glyphosate.
Visit FMCcrop.ca for more information.
*Submitted to PMRA for registration. Always read and follow label directions. Authority is a trademark of FMC Corporation.
