Rely on Lontrel™ XC herbicide for fail-safe control of Canada thistle and multiple other broadleaf weeds in field corn and other crops.
Lontrel™ XC Herbicide is a liquid concentrate to be diluted in water and applied for control of yield-robbing broadleaf weeds. It is effective on a range of crops including canola, sugar beets, rutabagas, summerfallow, flax, spring wheat, spring barley, oats and many others.
Lontrel XC herbicide is readily absorbed by both foliage and roots, allowing it to move throughout the plant for superior control. Use it against Canada thistle, wild buckwheat, scentless chamomile, common groundsel and volunteer alfalfa. It suppresses growth of perennial sowthistle through control of top growth.
Lontrel™ XC is a high-performing, selective herbicide you can rely on to knock down target weeds
Why use Lontrel XC?
This Group 4 herbicide provides superior control against tough broadleaf weeds such as Canada thistle and sow thistle by moving througout the entire plant system. The following year after a Lontrel application, thistle stands are shown to be reduced by 73%.
Lontrel has an all-new XC formulation to give plants unmatched protection in even the toughest and most challenging conditions.
For use in areas requiring lower impact applications..
You choose the rate to match the size and scope of your thistle issues. Customized rates allow for complete control of target weeds while being safe for grass and other non-target vegetation.
Below lists the crops that Lontrel XC herbicide can be used on:
Beet, Sugar (Beta vulgaris ssp. vulgaris)
Sugar Beet (Beta Vulgaris L.)

Wheat, Durum (Triticum durum)
Wheat, Spring Seeded (Triticum aestivum)
Wheat, winter
Field sprayer application Do not apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. Do not apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground. Do not apply by air.
To reduce spray drift, use nozzles that deliver higher volumes and coarser droplets. Use low pressures (200 to 275 kPa). Use 100 to 200 L/ha of spray solution. Spray when the wind velocity is 15 km/h or less.
Each case of Lontrel XC herbicide contains 4 x 2.67 L jugs.
Lontrel™ XC has a wide range of rates from 69 mL to 202 mL/acre. Use rates vary by crop.
Field Corn:
Cereals (spring wheat, winter wheat, durum wheat, barley):
Canola (Ontario only):
Sugar Beets:
Rutabaga:
Treat target weed species in a young, growth life cycle, when the Canada thistle is in the rosette to pre-bud stage but prior to purple bud stage and volunteer alfalfa is 5-50 cm in height.
Apply to target weed species when they are young and actively growing. Only weeds present during application will be controlled.
Fields previously treated with Lontrel XC herbicide can be seeded the following year to wheat, oats, barley, rye (not underseeded with legumes, clover or alfalfa), forage grasses, flax, canola, mustard, soybeans*, field peas*, sugar beets or can be summer fallowed.
*Fields previously treated with Lontrel XC up to 101 ml/acre can be seeded after a minimum of 10 months to soybeans and field peas. Very dry soil conditions following application can result in a risk of injury to soybeans or field peas grown in rotation. If severe drought conditions (less than 38 cm rainfall in the 10 months following application) are experienced in the year of application, delay seeding soybeans and field peas an additional 12 months (total of 22 months following application).
Do not seed to crops other than those listed above in the calendar year following treatment.
Tank mix by following these steps:
Note: Do not mix undiluted herbicides in the chem-handler.
Group 4
Lontrel XC herbicide may be safely tank mixed with many other registered herbicides. Refer to the specific crop use recommendations for tank mix guidance.
