There have been reports of some fields of corn that due to flooding have an insufficient stand to keep. There are several options to control a thin corn stand and replant back to corn. Some of these options, like Select Max, need a waiting period before it can be planted back to corn. Others, like tankmixes of paraquat plus atrazine, corn may be replanted right away. Please find attached the results of a study Angela McClure and I conducted several years ago on destroying freeze damaged corn and replanting back to corn. We repeated the study the next year on a good stand of corn and got the same results. In this publication you will find a number of different herbicide options that did a good job controlling an unwanted stand of corn.
