Raptor FAQ

What weeds does Raptor control?

The Raptor label names 112 weeds, including palmer amaranth, jerusalem artichoke, barley, wild barley, common barnyardgrass, and catchweed bedstraw. Control varies by crop, rate, and timing.

What crops is Raptor labeled for?

Raptor is labeled for 6 crops and uses, including soybeans, alfalfa, clover, cowpea, and dry edible bean.

What is the active ingredient in Raptor? Is it a generic?

Raptor's active ingredient is imazamox (MOA Group 2). 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 Raptor?

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.

Can I tank-mix Raptor?

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.
