Key benefits
- Selective pre-emergent herbicide
- Compatible with a range of other herbicides to extend weed coverage and strengthen control
- 6-8 weeks residual control
How it works
Frontier-P® is taken up by the shoots of emerging weed seedlings and provides 6-8 weeks residual control of many annual grasses and some broadleaf weeds.
It is mainly absorbed by the emerging shoot (coleoptile) of the weed and must be present in the top soil layer as the weeds germinate and the coleoptile passes through the treated soil to control susceptible germinating seedlings before or soon after they emerge.
Frontier-P is most effective when incorporated by rainfall before weeds germinate. Reduced weed control may occur if there is insufficient soil surface moisture.
