The Rural Voice, 1993-03, Page 46PROWL herbicide registered for use in corn Cyanamid Canada Inc. has re- ceived federal registration for the use of Prowl (pendimethalin) herbicide in corn. Prowl was registered for use in onions in 1991. Prowl controls grassy weeds like foxtail, fall panicum and barnyard grass as well atrazine -resistant weeds such as Iamb's quarters. Cyanamid will be recommending the use of tank mixes with its registered partners Atrazine or Bladex to control green and yellow foxtail, barnyard grass, redroot pigweed, Iambs quarters, ragweed, smartweed and vclvetleaf. Prowl is also effective in sequential spray programs of Prowl followed by a wide spectrum broadleaf herbicide. Prowl has excellent application flexibility. "Prowl's pre -emergent and early post -emergent application What's New timing should prove popular with corn growers in Ontario and Quebec," adds George Annette, Cyanamid's manager of research and development for Eastem Canada.
