Cavallo 4SC

According to the label From the product label

Cavallo 4SC is a Mesotrione-based herbicide (Group 27) used for the pre-emergence and post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in corn, seed corn, yellow popcorn, and sweet corn. It contains 40.0% Mesotrione by weight. The product is designed to be applied via spray to control various weeds, including amaranth, crabgrass, and pigweed. It can be used alone or tank-mixed with other herbicides, such as Atrazine, to enhance control or manage resistance. When tank-mixed with Atrazine, it is specifically intended for use on corn and sugarcane. Users should note that application rates and timing vary depending on the target weed and whether it is a pre-emergence or post-emergence application. Standout handling notes include the requirement for specific PPE (long-sleeved shirts, long pants, chemical-resistant gloves, and shoes plus socks) and strict adherence to wind speed and temperature inversion restrictions to prevent spray drift. It is critical to avoid application near water bodies and to follow specific mixing instructions when using tank mixes to maintain efficacy and prevent crop injury.
