PROCEDURE FOR TESTING THE COMPATIBILITY OF ATRABUT~ 11+ WITH FLUID 
FERTILIZERS. 
The following proct!durt! is suggt!stttd for d~termining whether Atrabute 
11+ may be combined with a specific fluid fer~ilizer for spray tank 
application. 
MATERIALS REQUIRED: 
1. Atrabute 11+ 
2. Fluid fertili"cr to be used. 
3. Tank mix adjuvants for fluid fertili"er combination: Compext. 
Sponto 168-Dt, Uni-Mb:t, Unitet or equivalent. The adjuvant which 
provides the best compatibility depends on the specific fertilizer 
involved. 
4. Two one-quart, wid~-mouth glass jars with lids. 
5. Measuring spoons; a graduated pipette or cylinder will provide 
more accurate measurements; 1 tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons, 1 
teaspoon equals approximately 5 milliliters. 
6. Measuring cup. 8 oz. (237 ml I

PROCEDURE: 
1. Pour a pint (473 ml I of the fluid fertilizer into each of the 
quart jars. 
2. Add adjuvant to one of the jars ar,d mi>: (see Rate Table below**I. 
3. Add Atrabute I I + to both jars.

upside down ten times. 
5. Inspect the surface and body of the mixtures:

All individual state reQulations relating to dry bulk {~tili%er 
blendinQ, registration, labeling and application &re the 
responsibility of the individual andlor company .elling the Atrabute 
11+ fertilizer mixtures. 
Atrabute 11+ may be impregnated on many dry bulk fertilizer3 (1) and 
applied and incorporated into the soil either in the Fall be~ore the 
ground freezes or before planting for the control of many grassy and 
br'oadleaf weeds. 
All Atrabute 11+ labels and supplementary literature instruction& and 
precautions regarding rates per acre, 5011 type and soil 
incorporation, application and other directions must be followed. 
Test results have shown that Atrabute 11+ on many dry bulk fertilizers 
gives weed control equal to Sutan+ 6.7-E or tank mixtures of Sutan+ 
6.7-E/Atrazine (BOW or 4L) applied as a spray in water or liquid 
fertilizer, or impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer. However, unif~rm 
impregnation of the Atrabute 11+ on dry fertilizer particles and 
uniform application in the field are necessary to assure good results. 
A minimum of 200 pounds 
fertilizer ingredients (1) 
Atrabute 11+ ",ust be applied 
and a maximum of 700 pounds of approved 
impregnated with the appropriate amount of 
per acre. 
For impregnating the Atrabute 11+ on dry fertilizers, use a closed 
rotary-drum type mlxer equipped with suitable spraying equipment. The 
spray no~zles should be positioned inside of the mixer to provide 
uniform spray coverage of the tumbling fertilizer. The Atrabute II. 
should be sprayed uni+ormly onto the fertilize,- using a fine spray 
pattern. Atrabute 11+ is a relatively viscous material, particul~rly 
at low temperaturps (20 degrees F). At warmer temperatures (45-BO 
degrees F) the vis<' ~ity IS significantly lower (see viSCOSity data 
latel' In this appendi::).

CENTER PIVOT SPRINKLER APPLICATION 
Apply Atrabute II. with irrigation water bRfor~ planting (see 
PLANTING), or immediately after planting before either corn or weeds 
emerge. It is important that application be dane i~mediate\y after 
the last tillage operation since poor results w111 occur if the weeds 
have germinated before application of the herbicide. Meter the 
pre-mixed Atrabute 11+ into the irri~atinn water during the entire 
period. Apply in 1/2 to 1 inch of wa er or sufficient ~later to 
penetrate the soil to a depth of 5 to 7 inch~s. Good agitation should 
be maintained during the entire application peried. 
USE PRECAUTIONS: 
A. Apply the product only through center pivot irrigation syHtems 
containing anti-siphon and check valves which Will prevpnt water

For all uses cultivation is recommended in addition to the Atrabute

For control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds: Use 6 to 7.8 pints

textured clay) soils and for sandbur and jOhnsongras5 seedling

Atrabute 11+ mal' be impregnated on many dry bulk fertilizers (1) and 
applied and incDrporated into the 50il either in the Fall before the

The ..aunt of Atrabute 11+ actually required in the .anufacture of1~ 
individual fertilizer .iNtures should be deterMined carefully for each 
production operation (2). This is necessary to ensure that the aMOUnt 
of Atrabute 11+ actually contained in the MiNture applied to the soil 
repre.ent. the correct rate. of use. 
Bulk fertiliz~r. impregnated with Atrabute 11+ .hould be applied 
immediately, NOT STORED. All bulk container. should b& tightly 
covered while the product. are being tran.ported and applied to reduce 
chances of Atrabute 11+ 10 •• via volatilization. 
Do not combine Atrabute 11+ with single superphosphate (0-20-0) or 
treble superphosphate (0-46-0).

CENTER PIVOT SPRINKLER APPLICATJON 
Apply Atrabute IJ+ with irrigation water b.fore planting (see 
PLANTING), or immediately after planting b.fore either corn or weeds 
emerge. It is important that application be done immediately after 
the last tillage operation since poor r.sult. will occur if the weeds 
have germinated before application of the herbicide. Meter the 
pre-mixed Atrabute IJ+ into the irrigation water during the entire 
period. Apply in 1/2 to 1 inch of water or sufficient water to 
penetrate the soil to a depth of 5 to 7 inches. Good agitation should 
be maintained during the entire application period. 
USE PR~CAUTJONS. 
A. Apply the product only through center pivot irrigation systems 
containing anti-siphon and check valves which will prevent water 
source contamination and overflow of the slurry tank and containing 
interlocking controls between the metering d.vic. and the water pump 
to insure simUltaneous shut-off. 
B. Inject the product with a positive displacement pump into the main 
lin. ahead of a right angle turn to insure adequate mixing. 
C. Application of more than recommended quantities of irrigation 
water may result in decreased product perfurmance by removing the 
chemical from the zone of effectiveness.

NOTE. ATRABUTE U+ ill not recommended on corn gro,~" in Arizon. or in 
the ten .outhernmost Californi. counties. 
For all uses cultivation is recommended 1n addition to the Atrabute

cane, potgrass, sandbur, johnsongrass seedlings, rhizome bermudagra.s, 
Texas panicum or volunteer sorghum.

Per Acre Conventional sprays and center pivot 
For control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds: Use 6 to 7.8 pints 
of Atrabute 11+ per acre. Use the higher rate of Atrabute 11+ on

textured clay) soils and for sandbur and johnsongrass seedling 
control.

Atrabute 11+ per acre. Use the higher rates of Atrabute 11+ 
(medium fine textured-silt loam, clay loam, etc.) soils, 
textured-clay) soils and for heavy infestations. 
For partial control (suppression) of Wild Cane (and for control of the 
broadleaf weeds and annual grasses listed): When applied and 
incorporated immediately before planting, Atrabute 11+ at the rate of 
11.7 pints per acre on a broadcast basis will reduce competition from 
wild cane. On continuous corn acreage with high cane seed population, 
rotation to another crop is recommended. 
Suppression of wild cane may be improved if all the following 
practices are followed.
