NON-selective herbicide
Satisfaction: Cleaner. Quicker. Cheetah®.
Cheetah® herbicide provides fast, effective control to eliminate the toughest weeds even those resistant to
glyphosate and multiple herbicide classes. When used over the top of LibertyLink® or glufosinate tolerant
traits it offers advantages over glyphosate-tolerant systems plus has many similar benefits.

• The only non-selective alternative to glyphosate for over-the-top use
Active ingr. glufosinate (24.5%)
• Allows growers to rotate non-selective herbicides across multiple crops
formulation liquid
• Non-selective, post-emergence control of broadleaf and grass weeds, including
weeds resistant to glyphosate and multiple herbicide classes
Chem. family phosphinic acid
• Fast control, kills weeds in days, minimizing weed competition for maximum yield

• Compared to competitive HT systems, Cheetah offers:
mode of act. glutamine synthetase inhibitor
- Lower volatility and reduced sprayer cleanout concerns
- Mitigates significant drift issues, contamination risk or buffer requirements
• Rainfast in four hours

Apply a minimum of 29 fl oz/A of Cheetah® for burndown of existing weeds just prior to
planting or prior to crop emergence.
Residual herbicides applied at burndown helps ensure optimal control, particularly if
environmental conditions delays a timely post Cheetah application.
Cheetah alone controls marestails, ragweeds, and Palmer amaranth however may not
provide adequate control of all weeds typically found in no-till burndown situations.
Apply in combination of 2,4-D esters and/or Panther® SC (flumioxazin), Panther D
(flumioxazin + 2,4-D), Credit® Xtreme (glyphosate), metribuzin or atrazine.
A tankmix of Cheetah and glyphosate may result in reduced grass control.
Check with your chemical retailer or university extension for localized adjuvant and
tankmix recommendations to enhance control if needed.

cheetah on invigor canola
Cheetah herbicide should be applied as follows @ 22 fl oz/A:
• Apply over the top of InVigor® canola when weeds are no more than 3 to 4” tall
• A second application can be made a minimum of 10 days later to address new weed
pressure, with a season maximum of 44 fl oz/A
Apply AMS at 1.5 lb/A to 3 lb/A. For additional grass control a Group 1 herbicide can be tank
mixed at labeled rates provided they are labeled for the timing and application.
