For full season control
of problem grasses in
minimum-tillage
Princep Cafiber9o
Reduced tillage calls for a strong, dependable grass herbicide. And
one that can team up with other herbicides to give you control of
both broadleaf weeds and grasses right up to harvest.
You can’t buy better grass control at any price. Especially of
problem grasses like fall panicum, crabgrass, and foxtail.
And you’ll also get all the extra convenience that Caliber 90
dispersible granules offer.
For reduced tillage, Princep Caliber 90 is your best, low cost
answer to problem grasses.
