PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||||
OLYMPUS® 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is a selective pre-plant, pre-emergence and postemergence
|
||||
herbicide for use in spring wheat, winter wheat and triticale and for postemergence use in durum wheat.
|
||||
ENVIRONMENTAL AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is absorbed by foliage and roots of weeds and offers contact and
|
||||
residual weed control. OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE provides the most consistent control when
|
||||
0.5 inches of activating rainfall occurs prior to the weeds reaching a tolerant stage. OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE
|
||||
GRANULAR HERBICIDE is active against many important grass and broadleaf weeds (see list below for details). Best weed control
|
||||
can be expected when applications are made after the crop has fully emerged and before grass weeds tiller.
|
||||
Environmental conditions which support vigorous growth of crop and weeds result in highest herbicidal activity. Following appli cation,
|
||||
symptoms of herbicidal activity may develop within several days. Speed of action depends on environmental conditions and increa ses
|
||||
with increasing temperature and moisture. Sensitive weeds quickly stop growing and no longer compete with the crop. Visible sig ns of
|
||||
activity include termination of plant development, yellowing and/or reddening of weeds, and finally plant death.
|
||||
Abnormal environmental conditions (excess soil moisture or drought, extreme cold weather) can influence crop tolerance and herb icidal
|
||||
activity and may cause temporary damage to the crop or reduced levels of weed control. This may result in weed stunting, rather than
|
||||
weed death. However, weed competition will be greatly reduced, and should permit normal crop development. Crop response may
|
||||
occur when frost occurs shortly after application to actively growing wheat. In winter wheat, OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE
|
||||
GRANULAR HERBICIDE can be applied either in the fall or the spring, or as a sequential treatment in the fall followed by a spri ng
|
||||
application. Fall applications generally offer more effective weed control than spring applications, unless drought or extreme rainfall
|
||||
provides unusual conditions. Best and most consistent weed control is provided by sequential applications in fall and spring.
|
||||
VARIETIES
|
||||
Avoid use on any variety known to be sensitive to the ALS mode of action.
|
||||
If OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is tank-mixed with any other product, refer to the label of the tank-
|
||||
mix partner for further instructions and potential restrictions (timing of application, varietal tolerance).
|
||||
SURFACTANTS
|
||||
A non-ionic surfactant (NIS) is required in the spray solution. Use only non-ionic surfactants which are approved by EPA for use on
|
||||
food crops and which contain at least 80 percent active ingredient.
|
||||
Non-ionic surfactants should be used at 0.25% - 0.5% in spray solution.
|
||||
APPLICATION IN FLUID FERTILIZER
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE may be applied using a liquid nitrogen solution as the spray carrier
|
||||
in winter wheat and fall planted triticale only. For fall applications, the fertilizer solution should not exceed 50% liquid nitrogen and not
|
||||
exceed more than 30 pounds of actual nitrogen per acre. A NIS surfactant at a maximum of 0.25% v/v is required in spray solutions
|
||||
containing liquid nitrogen. Due to the activity of fertilizer on the crop, temporary injury may result when liquid nitrogen is used as a spray
|
||||
carrier. Crop response symptoms due to the use of liquid nitrogen as a spray carrier may include reduced wheat growth, discoloration,
|
||||
and leaf burn. Spring applications of fertilizer solutions containing more than 50% liquid nitrogen may result in excessive leaf burn from
|
||||
the liquid nitrogen solution. If using 100% UAN solutions as a carrier, reduce the NIS rate to 0.125 % v/v. Greater than 50% liquid
|
||||
nitrogen as the spray carrier is not recommended for winter wheat or fall planted triticale in WA, OR, or ID.
|
||||
APPLICATION
|
||||
Most consistent control is obtained with ground application. Either ground or aerial (fixed wing or helicopter) application equ ipment may
|
||||
be used to apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE as a foliar spray.
|
||||
Thorough coverage improves weed control. Select spray volume to ensure optimum plant coverage.
|
||||
Calibrate spray equipment before use.
|
||||
Do not apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE through irrigation systems.
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE may be applied preplant, pre-emergence and postemergence. Refer
|
||||
to tables on this label for specific directions according to crop and application method. Postemergence timing for wheat is fro m 2-leaf to
|
||||
before jointing begins. Because of the soil activity provided by OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE, all
|
||||
weeds do not have to be emerged for weed control to occur. Do not apply more than a total of 1.2 oz of OLYMPUS 70% WATER
|
||||
DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE per acre per year.
|
||||
|
||||
4
|
||||
Ground Application
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE can be applied broadcast in 5 or more gallons of water per acre. For
|
||||
weed control in dense weed canopies, use 15 or more gallons of water per acre. Weed infestations should be treated before they
|
||||
become competitive with the crop. Use screens that are 50-mesh or larger.
|
||||
Aerial Application
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE should be applied in a minimum of 5 gallons of water per broadcast
|
||||
acre. DO NOT use raindrop nozzles. Flagmen and loaders should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.
|
||||
SPRAY DRIFT
|
||||
Aerial Applications:
|
||||
• When applying aerially to crops, do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the crop canopy, unless a
|
||||
greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||||
• Applicators are required to use a coarse droplet size (ANSI/ASABE S641 ASABE S572.1).
|
||||
• When applying to crops via aerial application equipment, the spray boom must be mounted on the aircraft so as to
|
||||
minimize drift caused by wing tip or rotor blade vortices. The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or
|
||||
90% of the rotor blade diameter.
|
||||
• When applying to crops via aerial application equipment, applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the
|
||||
downwind edge of the field.
|
||||
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||||
• When using ground application equipment, apply with nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop
|
||||
canopy.
|
||||
• Applicators are required to use a coarse droplet size (ANSI/ASAE S572.3 ASABE S572.1).
|
||||
• 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 interaction of many equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator
|
||||
is responsible for considering all these factors when making application decisions.
|
||||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||||
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest
|
||||
droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. The presence of sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and
|
||||
pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift control and coverage. APPLYING LARGER DROPLETS REDUCES DRIFT
|
||||
POTENTIAL, BUT WILL NOT PREVENT DRIFT IF APPLICATIONS ARE MADE IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE
|
||||
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS! See Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions sections of this label.
|
||||
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE – GROUND BOOM
|
||||
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce
|
||||
larger droplets.
|
||||
• Pressure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and does not
|
||||
improve canopy penetration. WHEN HIGHER FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE A HIGHER-CAPACITY NOZZLE
|
||||
INSTEAD OF INCREASING PRESSURE.
|
||||
• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application.
|
||||
With most nozzle types, narrower spray
|
||||
angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift nozzles.
|
||||
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE – AIRCRAFT
|
||||
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles with the highest flow rate that provide uniform coverage.
|
||||
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is emitted backwards, parallel to the airstream will produce larger
|
||||
droplets than other orientations. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.
|
||||
|
||||
5
|
||||
• Nozzle Type - Solid stream nozzles (such as disc and core with swirl plate removed) oriented straight back produce larger
|
||||
droplets than other nozzle types.
|
||||
• Boom Length - Longer booms increase drift potential. Therefore a shorter boom length is recommended.
|
||||
• Application Height - Application more than 10 ft. above the canopy increases the potential for spray drift.
|
||||
BOOM HEIGHT
|
||||
Setting the boom at the lowest referenced height (if specified) which provides uniform coverage reduces the exposure of droplets to
|
||||
evaporation and wind. For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||||
WIND
|
||||
Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph (due to inversion potential) or more than 10 mph. However, many factors,
|
||||
including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY
|
||||
OR WINDLESS CONDITIONS.
|
||||
Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator needs to be familiar be familiar with local wind patterns and how
|
||||
they affect spray drift.
|
||||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
|
||||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
|
||||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small
|
||||
suspended droplets to remain close to the ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud. Temperature inversions are
|
||||
characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They
|
||||
begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is
|
||||
not present, inversions can also be identified 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.
|
||||
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
|
||||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the applicator to verify that the
|
||||
shields are preventing drift and not interfering with uniform deposition of the product.
|
||||
POLLINATOR ADVISORY STATEMENT
|
||||
This product may adversely impact the forage and habitat of local pollinators, including the monarch butterfly (and its larvae), birds, or
|
||||
bats if reaches non-target areas. Protect pollinators by following label directions to minimize spray drift.
|
||||
HERBICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (WSSA) RECOMMENDATIONS
|
||||
For resistance management, OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is a Group 2 herbicide. Any weed
|
||||
population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE and
|
||||
other Group 2 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:
|
||||
• Rotate the use of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE or other Group 2 herbicides within a
|
||||
growing season sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
|
||||
• 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.
|
||||
• 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.
|
||||
• Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance development. Indicators of possible
|
||||
herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied,
|
||||
especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species;
|
||||
(3) 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.
|
||||
• 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.
|
||||
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance-management and/or
|
||||
integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes.

|
||||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||||
Ensure the spray tank is clean. In-line strainers and nozzle screens should be clean and 50 mesh or coarser.
|
||||
1. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with clean water and begin agitation or bypass.
|
||||
2. Add the appropriate rate of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE, as determined
|
||||
under”Recommended Rates”, directly to the spray tank. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application.
|
||||
3. Add the broadleaf weed herbicide.
|
||||
4. Add the surfactant.
|
||||
5. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
|
||||
6 Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR
|
||||
HERBICIDE.
|
||||
RE-SUSPENDING WG PRODUCTS IN SPRAY SOLUTION
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE may settle if left standing without agitation. If the spray solution is
|
||||
allowed to stand for one hour or more, re-agitate the spray solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before application.
|
||||
|
||||
11
|
||||
COMPATIBILITY
|
||||
If OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is to be tank mixed with other herbicides, compatibility should be
|
||||
tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1qt) of spray solution, combining
|
||||
all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use th is mixture for
|
||||
spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually occur within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow the label of each tank mix
|
||||
product used for precautionary statements, directions for use, geographic and other restrictions. Indications of incompatibilit y include
|
||||
separation in the mix, and either clumping or clabbering of the mixture.
|
||||
TANK CLEANUP PROCEDURE
|
||||
1. Drain the tank completely, and then wash out tank, boom and hoses with clean water. Drain again.
|
||||
2. Half fill the tank with clean water and add ammonia (i.e., 3% domestic ammonia solution) at a dilution rate of 1% (i.e., 1 ga llon of
|
||||
domestic ammonia for every 100 gallons of rinsate). Complete filling of the tank with water. Agitate/recirculate and flush thro ugh
|
||||
boom and hoses. Leave agitation on for 10 minutes. Drain tank completely.
|
||||
3. Repeat step 2.
|
||||
4. Remove nozzles and screens and soak them in a 1% ammonia solution. Inspect nozzles and screens and remove visible residues.
|
||||
5. Flush tank, boom, and hoses with clean water.
|
||||
6. Inspect tank for visible residues. If present, repeat step 2.
|
||||
RE-CROPPING GUIDELINES
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE breakdown in the soil is due mainly to microbial activity. It can be
|
||||
affected by soil temperature and moisture. Conditions that accelerate the breakdown of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE
|
||||
GRANULAR HERBICIDE include adequate soil moisture and adequate soil temperatures to support microbial activity. Likewise,
|
||||
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE breakdown can be slowed under dry, cold conditions. When
|
||||
considering crop rotations, soil moisture and soil temperature conditions since application should be monitored.
|
||||
In determining the appropriate recropping interval to follow when multiple herbicides have been used during the season, follow the label
|
||||
with the longest interval for the crop to be planted from all the herbicides used the previous year.
|
||||
Recropping intervals following a cumulative total of 0.2 – 0.6 oz OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE
|
||||
GRANULAR HERBICIDE per acre
|
||||
or 0.0088 – 0.0263 lbs propoxycarbazone active ingredient per acre.
|
||||
The following crops may be recropped after OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is applied alone or in
|
||||
combination with other products which contain propoxycarbazone.
|
||||

FIELD BIOASSAY
|
||||
A field bioassay must be conducted for crops not listed on this label and for crops where cumulative precipitation requirements are not
|
||||
satisfied or for crops listed on the label for which a shorter plant-back interval than listed is desired. To conduct a field b ioassay, plant
|
||||
strips of the crop you want to grow the season following OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE application.
|
||||
Monitor the crop for response to OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE to determine if the crop can be
|
||||
grown safely in previously treated OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE areas.
|
||||
Regardless of the bioassay results, do not plant any crop, except wheat, closer than 4 months after application.
|
||||
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
|
||||
• Use adjuvants as specified on this label.
|
||||
• OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is rainfast 4 hours after application to most weed species.
|
||||
Rainfall within 4 hours may necessitate retreatment or may result in reduced weed control.
|
||||
• Injury may occur when OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is applied to wheat planted in soils
|
||||
with a pH greater than 8 or less than 5 due to an unfavorable soil environment stressing overall plant growth. This response
|
||||
may be further exacerbated by a rain or an irrigation event.
|
||||
• Applications should be made to actively growing weeds. Weed control may be reduced when weeds are under stress due to
|
||||
severe weather conditions, drought, very cold temperatures, etc. Weed control may be reduced if the herbicide application is
|
||||
made under dry, dusty conditions – especially in the wheel track areas.
|

|
||||
may occur.
|
||||
• Do not harvest wheat for grain or straw within 71 days of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE
|
||||
