Clean fields early in the season help farmers streamline management decisions and safeguard yield potential. A strong weed control program is the foundation that enables the soybean crop to get off to a clean start and supports season-long success.
For Missouri farmer Jon Robnett, a residual preemergence herbicide is the key he needs to knock down waterhemp and other hard-to-manage weeds before they take over his soybean fields.
“This waterhemp grows so fast that when it takes off, we only have a few days to get it killed,” Robnett said. “Otherwise, we’re fighting it the rest of the year.”
Robnett started using Sonic® Boom herbicide in 2025. Not only did he see cleaner fields for a longer period of time, but also the liquid premix formulation allowed him to mix and handle the herbicide easily, which simplified his management program.
“We have to stay clean,” Robnett said. “Herbicides like Sonic Boom really help us protect our yield potential when we do.”
With a residual soybean herbicide like Sonic Boom, Robnett can keep fields clean without making multiple passes and only hoping for success.
Find out why he decided to use the soybean herbicide for a second year in a row and why he recommends the solution to other farmers. For more information, visit Corteva.us/SonicBoom.
