+WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT 
+Carnivore Herbicide contains both Group 4 herbicides (MCPA and Fluroxypyr) and a Group 6 herbicide (Bromoxynil). Any 
+weed population may contain plants naturally resistant to Group 4 and/or Group 6 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may 
+dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate resistance-
+management strategies should be followed. 
+ 
+To delay herbicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: 
+x Rotate the use of this product or other Group 4 and Group 6 herbicides, within a growing season sequence or 
+among growing seasons, with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field. 
+x Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use is permitted; where information on resistance in 
+target weed species is available use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that will control the target weed(s) 
+equally as well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local extension service or certified crop advisor if 
+you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently less prone to resistance. 
+x Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herbicide use that includes scouting and uses historical 
+information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage (or other mechanical control 
+methods), cultural (e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application method and timing to favor the 
+crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices. 
+x Scout fields prior to application to identify the weed species present and their growth stage to determine if the 
+intended application will be effective. 
+x Scout fields after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance development. 
+Indicators of possible herbicide resistance include: 
+o Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if 
+control is achieved on adjacent weeds. 
+o A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species. 
+o Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. 
+If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed production in the affected area by an alternative herbicide from a 
+different group or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage. Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds to 
+other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and planting clean seed. 
+x If a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment with this product, discontinue use of this product, 
+and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available. 
+x Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or Winfield Solutions, LLC representative for 
+pesticide resistance management and/or integrated weed management recommendations for specific crops and 
+resistant weed biotypes. 
+x For further information or to report suspected resistance, contact your Winfield Solutions, LLC representative . 
+ 
+USE PRECAUTIONS 
+x Do not allow spray drift to come in contact with or apply this product directly to susceptible broadleaf plants or 
+broadleaf crops, including but not limited to the following: alfalfa, canola, cotton, edible beans, grapes, lentils, lettuce, 
+mustard, peas, potatoes, radishes, soybeans, sugar beets, sunflowers, tobacco or tomatoes. 
+ 
+USE RESTRICTIONS 
+x Do not apply more than 2.4 pints of this product per acre per year. 
+x Handlers must use closed mixing loading systems during mixing/loading liquids for aerial applications to fallowland 
+and to high-acreage field crops including barley, oats and wheat. 
+x When applying this product, do not contaminate water used for domestic purposes or irrigation ditches. 
+x Do not apply this product through any type of irritation system (i.e., chemigation). 
+x Unless otherwise noted, if replanting is required, within 120 days after application, plant only crops listed on this label 
+or federally approved supplemental labeling. 
+x Aerial application to fallowland is prohibited within 25 feet of residential areas (e.g., homes, schools, playgrounds, 
+shopping areas, hospitals, etc.). 
+x Holding time restriction : This product is persistent and may be present in plant materials for over 30 days after 
+application. Do not use treated plant material or manure from animals that have grazed or consumed forage from 
+treated areas for compost, mulch, or mushroom spawn until 30 days after application. 
+x Livestock cleanout period : Animals that have been fed fluroxypyr treated forage must be fed forage free of 
+fluroxypyr for at least 3 days before they are moved off the treated property.
+
+5 
+MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 
+Ground Boom Applications 
+x User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the 
+ground or crop canopy. 
+x Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE 
+S572). 
+x Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site. 
+x Do not apply during temperature inversions. 
+ 
+x Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater 
+ application height is necessary for pilot safety. 
+x Applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. 
+x Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site. 
+x Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572 
+and S641) for all applications. 
+x The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed 75% of the length of the wingspan 
+ or 90% of the rotor diameter 
+x Do not apply during temperature inversions. 
+ 
+Boomless Ground Applications 
+• Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE 
+ S572) for all applications. 
+• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site. 
+• Do not apply during temperature inversions. 
+ 
+SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES 
+THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FO R AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-
+TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. 
+ 
+Importance of Droplet Size 
+An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. 
+While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made 
+improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions. 
+ 
+Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom 
+x Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the 
+highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a 
+nozzle with a higher flow rate. 
+x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume 
+and droplet size. 
+x Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles 
+designed to reduce drift. 
+ 
+Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft 
+x Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce 
+fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight. 
+ 
+Boom Height – Ground Boom 
+For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce. 
+ 
+Release Height - Aircraft 
+Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. 
+ 
+Shielded Sprayers 
+Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields 
+are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area. 
+ 
+Boomless Ground Applications 
+Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift .
+
+6 
+Handheld Technology Applications 
+Take precautions to minimize spray drift. 
+ 
+Temperature and Humidity 
+When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation. 
+ 
+Temperature Inversions 
+Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature 
+with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be 
+indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that 
+layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that 
+moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. 
+ 
+Wind 
+Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. 
+Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift. 
+ 
+LOADING AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS 
+2.5 Gallon Containers 
+Take special care when mixing and loading this product. Place hands on the container in such a way as to avoid possible 
+drip or splash. 
+30 Gallon and Bulk Containers 
+If you will handle a total of 60 gallons or more of this product per day, you must use a mechanical transfer system for all 
+mixing and loading operations. If this product is packed in a 30 gallon drum, you must use a mechanical transfer system 
+which terminates in a drop-free hard coupling which may be used only with a spray or mix tank which has been fitted with 
+a compatible coupling. If you do not presently own or have access to a mechanical transfer system with this type of 
+coupling, contact your dealer for information on how to obtain such a system or to modify your present system. When 
+using a mechanical transfer system, do not remove or disconnect the pump or probe from the container until the container 
+has been emptied and rinsed. The pump or probe system must be used to rinse the empty container and to transfer the 
+rinsate directly to the mixing or spray tank. 
+ 
+MIXING INSTRUCTIONS 
+This product may be applied in tank mixtures with additive products such as surfactants, adjuvants and drift control 
+agents, and with most commonly used grass herbicides, at specified rates, as long as tank mixing is not prohibited by the 
+label(s) of the tank mix partner and the tank mix partner products are labeled for the timing and method of application for 
+the use site to be treated. Observe all restrictions and precautions that appear on the labels of those products. If 
+compatibility with another product is not known, perform a small-scale (jar) test to determine compatibility (see instructions 
+below). When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Winfield Solutions, LLC recommends the use of a Chemical 
+Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant. 
+ 
+Note: When adding ingredients to the mixture, allow time for each ingredient to be thoroughly mixed before adding the 
+next. Be sure to agitate spray mixture before use if allowed to stand after mixing. 
+ 
+1. Fill spray tank with water equal to 1/2 to 3/4 of the required spray volume and start agitation. 
+2. Add the recommended amount of this product. 
+3. Add any grass herbicides, surfactants, adjuvants or drift control agents according to the respective manufacturer's 
+instructions. 
+4. Agitate during final filling of the spray tank with water and maintain sufficient agitation during application to ensure 
+uniformity of the spray mixture. 
+ 
+Tank Mix Compatibility (Jar) Test 
+1) Mix the desired tank mix ingredients in their relative proportions in a clear glass quart jar with lid. 
+2) Invert the jar containing the mixture several times and observe the mixture for approximately 1/2 hour. 
+3) If the mixture balls-up, forms flakes, sludges, gels, oily films or layers, or other precipitates, it is not
+ 
+compatible and the tank mix combinations should not be used.

+ 
+1) Includes biotypes that are herbicide-resistant or tolerant. 
+ 
+Weeds germinating after spraying will not be controlled. 
+ 
+Management of Kochia Biotypes 
+Research indicates many biotypes of kochia may occur within a single field and while kochia biotypes can vary in their 
+susceptibility to this product, in general all biotypes will be suppressed or controlled at the labeled rate of 1 to 1-1/2 pint s 
+per acre. A shift to more tolerant biotypes within a field may occur if this product is applied at rates lower than 
+recommended. 
+ 
+ Best Practices for Resistance Management 
+ Extensive populations of dicamba-tolerant kochia have been identified in certain small grain and corn production 
+ regions (such as Chouteau, Fergus, Liberty, Toole, and Treasure counties in the state of Montana). For optimal 
+ control of dicamba-tolerant kochia in these counties, apply this product at the rate of 1-1/2 pints per acre. 
+ 
+ To minimize selection pressure and preserve the utility of this product for control of dicamba-tolerant kochia biotypes, 
+ this product should be rotated with products that do not contain dicamba. 
+ 
+Application Timing 
+Only weeds that have emerged at the time of application will be controlled so be sure to apply to actively growing weeds. 
+Weed control may be reduced and the risk of crop injury (at all stages of growth) may increase if extreme growing 
+conditions (such as drought or near-freezing temperatures) occur prior to, at, or following application. Control may be 
+decreased if target plant foliage is wet at the time of application. Applications of this product are rainfast within 1 hour af ter 
+application. 
+ 
+Effect of Temperature on Herbicidal Activity 
+The herbicidal activity of this product is influenced by weather conditions. Optimum herbicidal activity requires active plant 
+growth and temperatures between 55°F to 75°F. Reduced efficacy will occur when temperatures are below 45°F or 
+above 85°F. Weed control and crop tolerance may be reduced if frost occurs before or shortly after application (3 days). 
+ 
+Spray Coverage 
+Use sufficient spray volume to provide thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern. For best results (and to minimize 
+spray drift), apply in a spray volume of 8 gallons or more per acre by ground and 3 or more gallons of total spray volume 
+per acre by air. Spray volume should be increased as weed density and vegetative canopy increase in order to obtain 
+equivalent weed control; however, do not exceed 40 gallons per acre total spray volume. Rather than increasing boom 
+pressure, decrease spraying speed or use larger nozzle tips to increase spray volume.
+
+8 
+ 
+Use only nozzle types and spray equipment designed for herbicide application. To reduce spray drift, be sure to follow the 
+precautions under the heading, “Spray Drift Management”. 
+ 
+Adjuvants 
+To improve weed control, a high-quality adjuvant labeled for use on growing crops may be used. An adjuvant can 
+optimize herbicidal activity when applications are made at lower carrier volumes, under conditions of cool temperature, 
+low relative humidity or drought, or to small, heavily pubescent kochia. When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, 
+Winfield Solutions, LLC recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant. 
+ 
+Spot Treatments 
+Only apply using a calibrated boom sprayer using the directions below: 
+Application rates in the table below are based on an area of 1,000 square feet. 
+Mix the amount of this product (fluid ounces or ml) corresponding to the desired broadcast rate in one or more gallons of 
+spray. To calculate the amount of this product required for larger areas, multiply the table value (fluid ounces or ml) by 
+the area to be treated in “thousands” of square feet. An area of 1,000 square feet is approximately 10.5 X 10.5 yards 
+(strides) in size. 
+For example: If the area to be treated is 3,500 square feet, multiply the table value by 3.5 (calc. 3,500 ÷ 1,000 + 3.5).

+ 
+Application Rates 
+In general, the application rates at the lower end of the specified rate range will be efficacious when applied to susceptible 
+weed species with young, succulent growth. Use the higher rates within the rate range when applying to less sensitive 
+species, perennials, and under conditions where control is more difficult (e.g., when plants are stressed due to drought or 
+extreme temperatures, in dense weed stands and/or the weeds are larger). Higher rates will also be needed to control or 
+suppress weeds in areas where competition from crops is not present (e.g., fallowland). 
+ 
+Sprayer Cleanup 
+To avoid injury to desirable plants, before applying other chemicals with the equipment used to apply this product, all 
+equipment must be thoroughly cleaned. 
+1. After applying this product, flush and rinse application equipment with water thoroughly, disposing of the water 
+according to the disposal instructions in this label. All rinse water must be disposed of in compliance with local, 
+state and federal guidelines. 
+2. Hose down the interior surfaces of the tank, flushing the tank, hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water for 10 
+minutes. 
+3. Fill the tank with water and recirculate for 15 minutes. 
+4. Spray part of the mixture through the hoses, boom and nozzles and drain the tank. 
+5. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately. 
+6. If the spray equipment will be used on crops other than those labeled for this product, repeat steps 1 and 2 and 
+thoroughly wash the outside of spray tank and the boom. 
+ 
+WHEAT, BARLEY, OATS 
+Application Timing 
+To control listed broadleaf weeds, apply as a postemergence broadcast treatment to actively growing wheat, barley or 
+oats from the 2-leaf stage up to and including flag leaf emergence (Zadoks scale 39). Because only weeds that have 
+emerged at the time application will be controlled, be sure to apply when weeds are actively growing but before weeds are 
+8 inches tall or vining. 
+ 
+For perennial weeds (such as Canada thistle), apply when the majority of the basal leaves have emerged from the soil up 
+to bud stage to obtain season-long control. 
+ 
+To suppress volunteer potatoes, apply before potato plants are 4 inches tall.
+
+9 
+Broadcast Application Rates 
+For complete listing of weeds controlled or suppressed, refer to the “Broadleaf Weeds Controlled or Suppressed” section. 
+ 
+For seedlings of susceptible species <4 inches tall: Apply 1 pint per acre. 
+ 
+For seedlings of susceptible species 4 to 8 inches tall or vining: Apply 1-1/2 pints per acre. 
+ 
+For volunteer potatoes: Apply 1-1/2 pints per acre. 
+ 
+Note: Kochia seedlings less than 4 inches tall (including ALS resistant biotypes) will be controlled using the 1 pint per acre 
+rate. However, when conditions for control are less favorable, such as under drought or cool temperature, a rate of 1-1/2 
+pints per acre will provide more consistent control of kochia seedlings 1 to 4 inches tall. For more consistent control of 
+small kochia, apply when the plants are at least 1 inch tall. A rate of 1-1/2 pints per acre should be used for optimal 
+control of dicamba tolerant kochia populations (refer to the “Management of Kochia Biotypes” in the “Broadleaf Weeds 
+Controlled or Suppressed” section above). 
+ 
+Spot Applications 
+Spot applications may be made using rates and spray volume equivalent to a broadcast application (refer to the “Spot 
+Treatment” instructions in the “Application Information” section above). 
+ 
+Application Restrictions 
+x Do not harvest treated forage or allow livestock to graze treated areas within 45 days of application. 
+x Do not apply more than 2.4 pints (38.4 fluid ounces) (0.5 lbs. MCPA acid, 0.5 lbs. Bromoxynil, 0.2 lbs. Fluroxypyr 
+acid) of this product per acre per year. 
+x Do not apply within 40 days prior to harvesting grain and straw or within 14 days prior to cutting hay. 
+x The risk of crop injury at all stages of growth and poor weed control is increased if the application is 
+made and extreme growing conditions (such as drought or near freezing temperatures) occur prior to, 
+at, and following the application. Reduced weed control may also occur during these conditions. 
+x Do not apply when crop canopy covers the weeds as poor control will result. 
+ 
+CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAM (CRP) 
+Application Timing 
+Apply at a rate of 1 to 2 pints per acre, depending upon the susceptibility of the weed species. Apply to grasses from the 
+3-leaf stage. Unless otherwise specified below, apply when broadleaf weeds are up to the 8-leaf stage, 4 inches in height 
+or 2 inches in diameter, whichever comes first. 
+ 
+Kochia seedlings less than 4 inches tall (including ALS resistant biotypes) will be controlled using the 1 pint per acre rate. 
+However, when conditions for control are less favorable, such as under drought or cool temperature, a rate of 1-1/2 pints 
+per acre will provide more consistent control of kochia seedlings 1 to 4 inches tall. For more consistent control of small 
+kochia, apply when the plants are at least 1 inch tall. A rate of 1-1/2 pints per acre should be used for optimal control of 
+dicamba tolerant kochia populations (refer to the “Management of Kochia Biotypes” in the “Broadleaf Weeds Controlled or 
+Suppressed” section above). 
+ 
+Application Precautions 
+x If legumes are included in CRP area planting, severe injury may occur. 
+ 
+Application Restrictions 
+x Do not allow livestock to graze in treated areas or feed treated grass to livestock. 
+x Crops listed on the Carnivore Herbicide label (wheat, barley, or oats not under-seeded with a legume) 
+may be planted within 120 days of application. Do not plant other crops within 120 days of application. 
+ 
+FALLOWLAND 
+Application Timing 
+Apply at a rate of 1 to 2 pints per acre, depending upon the susceptibility of the weed species. Apply to grasses from the 
+3-leaf stage. Unless otherwise specified below, apply when broadleaf weeds are up to the 8-leaf stage, 4 inches in height 
+or 2 inches in diameter, whichever comes first. 
+ 
+Kochia seedlings less than 4 inches tall (including ALS resistant biotypes) will be controlled using the 1 pint per acre rate. 
+However, when conditions for control are less favorable, such as under drought or cool temperature, a rate of 1-1/2 pints 
+per acre will provide more consistent control of kochia seedlings 1 to 4 inches tall. For more consistent control of small
+
+10 
+kochia, apply when the plants are at least 1 inch tall. A rate of 1-1/2 pints per acre should be used for optimal control of 
+dicamba tolerant kochia populations (refer to the “Management of Kochia Biotypes” in the “Broadleaf Weeds Controlled or 
+Suppressed” section above). 
+ 
+Application Restrictions 
+x Do not make more than two applications per year, with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days.
