Sonic® Boom Benefits

Clean Start

Sonic® Boom is a foundational preemergence soybean herbicide with two proven modes of action in metribuzin and sulfentrazone to give growers peace of mind that they are going to get their soybean fields off to a clean start. Sonic Boom delivers powerful weed control of key weeds like Palmer amaranth, waterhemp and kochia.  

Long-Lasting Residual

The 2:1 ratio of metribuzin to sulfentrazone gives Sonic® Boom its strong, long-lasting residual of 4-6 weeks. This allows soybean growers to have a wide window to make their follow-up postemergence application. Sonic Boom fits perfectly into a two-pass program for season-long weed control.  

Convenient, Flexible Formulation

Sonic® Boom is a convenient, liquid SC premix with a low recommended use rate of 16-21 fl oz/A. Soybean growers can tank mix Sonic Boom with burndown herbicides prior to planting or with other preemergence herbicides, including Group 15 herbicides. Plus, Sonic Boom has the flexibility to fit a variety of agronomic and weed control systems, including the Enlist® weed control system.
