Benefits of Poast Ultra
- Poast Ultra is a contact and systemic herbicide.
- Uptake is primarily through its leaves.
- Depending on growing conditions and crop competition, the time required for complete control is 7 to 21 days following treatment.
- Translocated through the quackgrass plant to the rhizomes and kills actively growing rhizome buds and above ground vegetation.
- Dormant rhizome buds will remain unaffected and regrowth can occur from these buds.
- Applied according to label directions, re-growth of the quackgrass will not be significant until 6 to 8 weeks after treatment, depending on growing conditions, crop cultivation practices and crop competition.

When to Apply
- Poast Ultra can be applied when annual grasses are between 1 to 6-leaf stage.
- For the most effective control of annual grasses, apply when weeds are in the 2 to 5-leaf stage, when plants are small and actively growing, soil moisture is good and the crop is small enough to permit thorough spray coverage.
- Most effective at controlling wild oats and volunteer cereals if applied before tillering.
- For quackgrass control, apply when the plant is actively growing, up to the 3-leaf stage (8 to 12 cm in height).
- Use only on cultivated land where preplant tillage operations have been carried out to break up quackgrass roots.
- Where quackgrass is well established, thorough preplant cultivation to a depth of 10 cm is recommended to break up roots and provide uniform grass emergence for improved control.
- Apply for suppression of foxtail barley before the weed has tillered.
How Much to Apply
- Each case contains two 7.7 L containers of Poast Ultra.
- One case treats 120 acres if used at the lower rate of 0.13 L/ac and 80 acres if used at the higher rate of 0.19 L/ac.
- Controls a full range of annual grasses at varying leaf stages and volunteer cereals when applied at a rate if 0.13 L/ac.
- 0.19 L/ac controls the same annual grasses and volunteer cereals and also suppresses quackgrass at the 2 to 5-leaf stage. Use this rate if any one of the above mentioned conditions are not present at the time of application.
- 0.44 L/ac controls the same annual grasses and volunteer cereals, as well as quackgrass, at the 1 to 3-leaf stage.
- Also suppresses foxtail barley at the 1 to 6-leaf stage.
Note: Don’t forget to purchase Merge® surfactant.
