Atrazine on emerged milo should be applied before the sorghum gets to be 12 inches tall.

I prefer it go out at planting time myself and act as a residual herbicide.

1.5 - 2.0 quarts/acre. If weed pressure is intense or weeds get some size on them you can use a 2 quart rate + 1 quart crop oil/acre. Either way you need to apply before milo is 12 inches tall.
