What crops is Anthem labeled for?

What is the active ingredient in Anthem? Is it a generic?
Anthem's active ingredient is fluthiacet-methyl and pyroxasulfone (MOA Group 14 and 15). Other products list the same active ingredient; rates, formulations, and labeled crops differ — verify each on its own label.
What's the plant-back interval after Anthem?
It depends on your rotational crop, application rate, and region, so the label gives a table, not one number. Build a program and FieldMarshal gives you the exact interval for your rotation from the label line, so you can verify it.
Build a program →Can I tank-mix Anthem?
It depends on your target weeds, crop stage, and which partners the label approves. Build a program and FieldMarshal checks the label for approved partners and gives the condition on each, so you can verify it.
