- Allows protection against the second wave of weeds.
Action mode:
Frontier Forte EC is a soil herbicide with the application during pre-emergence of weeds and cultivated plants:
- Based on dimethenamid-P, Frontier Forte provides systemic action against germinating weeds that absorb the active substance through the coleoptile and the roots;
- For best effects, the soil must be moist enough to activate the active agent, so as to provide persisting protection for up to 2 months, affecting the second wave of emerging weeds;
- Maximum effects are achieved after 7 to 10 days following application when the product is solubilized in the surface layer of soil with the help of rain or irrigation.
Methods of application:
Treatments with Fortier Forte must be applied in the pre-emergence phase of weeds.
During dry springs, on soils with insufficient moisture, it is recommended to apply the herbicide before sowing.
Potatoes are sprayed pre-emergent, after the first or second re-pruning. Immediately after application, do not enter the field with other equipment, so as not to destroy the herbicide film.

Sunflower - 0.8 to 1.4 l per ha, depending on the quantity of humus in the soil.
