When is a Preemergence Herbicide typically applied?

  1. Before planting

  2. After harvesting

  3. During the flowering stage

  4. During precipitation

The correct answer is: Before planting

A Preemergence Herbicide is typically applied before planting to prevent weed seeds from germinating. By applying the herbicide before the planting process, it creates a barrier in the soil that targets the weed seeds, reducing weed competition for the crops once they are planted. This timing is crucial for effective weed management and to maximize the herbicide's efficacy. It is not applied after harvesting, during the flowering stage, or specifically during precipitation.
