I've called my friend who prepares the fields to give me the name and ratio of the herbicide he uses for the sunflowers.

Dual 21oz to an acre
Spartan 4 oz to an acre.
8lbs of prodovic sunflower seed per acre (broadcasted).

Brown top millet broadcasted 20lbs/acre.

Fertilizer 25-15-15 200lbs/acre

hope this helps....
Thanks man, you've been a big help!!!!
