Benefits
One solution weed control

Safe to grass
Forefront Pro is very safe for grass.
Application Advice
Forefront Pro should only be used on established grassland fields grazed by cattle or sheep.
Avoid treating weeds suffering from waterlogging, drought stress, cold stress, suffering from disease, e.g., Ramularia, or those affected by insect damage, e.g., dock beetle. Forefront T is LERAP Category B, meaning a 5 metre area must be left unsprayed next to a flowing or static waterbody, or 1 metre unsprayed near dry ditches.
Target actively growing plants in the rosette stage up to 250 mm across or high. If larger than this consider topping and spraying once sufficient regrowth has occurred.
Timing
Only use between 1st March and 31st July.
For applications made between 1st March and 31st May, 1 application may be made per calendar year.
For applications made between 1st June and 31st July, only 1 application may be made in a 2-year period.
Rates
Use at 2.0 L/ha in a water volume of 200 L/ha. If weed numbers are high, or if the grass sward is dense, increase to 300 L/ha. Reducing water volume to speed up spraying operations can lead to poorer long-term control.
Cattle and sheep grazing
Only use in grassland for grazing by cattle or sheep. Exclude livestock during treatment and do not allow livestock to graze the treated grassland for at least 7 days following treatment. If ragwort is present, livestock should not be returned to the treated grassland until any ragwort has completely recovered or died and there is no visual sign of the dead weed.
