From the Field Findings

Wet weather delayed corn planting beyond the suggested7-day window. Corn remains clean!Curtis Thompson, Kansas State University

Researcher Quotes

Weed control was good, especially in terms ofgaining early season control to minimize weedinterference and allow flexibility in a postemergenceherbicide application.

David Jordan, North Carolina State University


34/37


I put Fierce beside an untreated check, and the line was very defined.The grass and broadleaf control was excellent.James Day, Bradgate, IA

Fierce did a great job. Untreated check was solid weeds.

Kelly Cooper, Forman, ND

We have a real problem with Roundup-resistant waterhemp, andFierce appears to be the answer to that problem. I applied it preemergeand had total control.Joe Shryock, Columbia, MO
