Comments and limitations

Zidua PRO is a pre-mix containing 2.38 lb pryoxasulfone, 0.048 lb saflufenacil, and 0.33 lb imazethapyr per gallon. Provides burndown and residual control of grass and broadleaf weeds. Can be applied in the fall, preplant or preemergence on most soils, but should be applied at least 30 days prior to planting on coarse-textured soils with less than 2% organic matter. Do not apply after soybean begins to break through the surface of the soil. For optimum burndown activity, apply with MSO at 1% v/v, but not less than 1 pt/a, plus 1.25 to 2.5% v/v liquid UAN fertilizer, or AMS at 8.5 to 17 lb/100 gal of spray solution. Do not apply Pursuit or other imazethapyr products for the remainder of the growing season. Do not apply as a tank mix or sequentially with other PPO-inhibiting herbicides such as sulfentrazone, flumioxazin, or fomesafen within 30 days of soybean planting. Postemergence PPO-inhibiting herbicides such as FlexStar, Cobra, or Ultra Blazer can be applied 14 days after soybean emergence. Do not plant wheat for 4 months; corn for 8.5 months; Clearfield sunflower for 9.5 months; alfalfa for 10 months; Clearfield canola for 12 months; cotton, oats, sorghum, or sunflower for 18 months, or other crops for 40 months and a successful field bioassay following application. Refer to the herbicide label for maximum cumulative rates of saflufenacil and pyroxasulfone per cropping season.

The Pesticide Selector includes suggestions for chemical control of pests in Kansas crops, which are provided by K-State Research and Extension, and may not be relevant for states other than Kansas. We will continue to expand this tool for help in selecting other types of agricultural chemicals, and for other states. Contact the myFields Team if you are interested in contributing content!
