Product offers postemergence weed control

FMC Corporation, Philadelphia, now offers corn and soybean growers a new option for selective postemergence control of tough broadleaf weeds in corn and soybeans with Cadet herbicide. Cadet delivers superior control of velvetleaf, pigweed, lambsquarters, waterhemp and nightshade.

Cadet is a reliable, effective tank-mix partner with a variety of other herbicides (including glyphosate) to provide a more cost-effective, broad spectrum of control for increased yields and higher profits.

Cadet provides target weed control at lower rates than competitive herbicides. At a standard rate of just 0.4 - 0.5 oz/A, growers can count on Cadet delivering superior postemergence activity on a variety of key weeds, including resistant biotypes.

Cadet is labeled for control of a variety of tough broadleaf weeds, including waterhemp, lambsquarters, pigweed, nightshade, jimsonweed, burcucumber, spurred anoda, and others. In addition, Cadet provides velvetleaf control (up to 36 inches in height).

Extensive field testing proves the efficacy that Cadet delivers. University and FMC studies show the efficacy of Cadet in controlling key weeds in large soybean plot trials. When applied at the recommended rates, Cadet provided nearly 100 percent control of velvetleaf. In addition, Cadet provided outstanding control of tall waterhemp and lambsquarters.

Cadet carries a 60-day pre-harvest interval (PHI) for soybeans and a 90-day PHI for corn. Growers should apply Cadet at rates ranging from 0.4 to 0.9 oz/A, depending on weed pressure and tank-mix partners. For enhanced weed spectrum, growers can apply Cadet as a tank mix with glyphosate or other postemergence herbicides approved for corn and soybeans.

Cadet herbicide is the latest addition to the expanding portfolio of products now available from FMC for corn and soybeans. The active ingredient in Cadet, fluthiacet-methyl, was discovered and developed by KUMIAI Chemical Industry Co., LTD. and IHARA Chemical Industry Co., LTD. FMC obtained the sole marketing rights for this product in the corn and soybean markets in the U.S.
