I. General Information 
For broad-spectrum control of grass and broad,eat \\ieeds 
in soybeans, Squadron~ herbicide may be appiie~; as 2 
prepiant Incorporated or pre-emergence tr8atmen~ 
After Squadron IS applied, some suscept:bl8 weeds 
emerge, growth stops, and then the weeds Bither C11~ ,:J~ 
are not competitive with the crop. 
A timel)' cultivation may aid in the contra, of cenai;; ,'\i9~~ds 
or Improve general weed contrOl '/ .... hen adequate mOlstur~ 
is not received after application. Cultivation shoulc b8 sha!· 
low. 
Squadron reaches the growing pOints of sLiscept'bl~ 
weeds either by direct contact In the SOl!, or by root 
uptake and rapid translocation to the growing pOints 
Therefore, adequate soil moisture IS Important fo~ 8Pt.'llUm 
Squadron activity. The amount of rainfall or Irngall:m 
required following application depends on eXlst:ng 501' 
moisture, soil texture and organic matter content 
SuffiCient water to mOisten the soil to a depth of 2 In::hes 
is normaliy adequate. If adequate mOisture is not re,::;elved 
within 7 days after treatment. then a cultivation or 003t8-
mergence herbiCide appiicatlon may be needed to Imarove 
weed control. When adequate moisture is rec:slvecJ after 
dry conditions, Squadron wili provide residual contro~ of 
susceptible germinating weeds; a::tlvity on established 
weeds will depend on the weed species and the IDeation 
of its root system in the soil. 
DO NOT apply Squadron post emergence to soybeans as 
crop injUry may occur. 
DO NOT APPLY SQUADRON OR ITS TANK MIX­
TURES PRE-EMERGENCE IN SOUTH DAKOTA. 
DO NOT use Squadron other than In accordance With 
the instructions set forth on this label or approved supple­
mental labels. 
Crops other than soybeans, such as cotton, corn. grain 
sorghum, nce and vegetables, may be Injured by spray 
drift or other Indirect contact with Squadron. 
To aVOid Injury to sensitive crops from spray dnft, follow all 
use directions and precautions In SPRAYING INSTRUC­
TIONS section.

Avoiding spray drift at the application site IS the respons;­
billty 01 the appll~ator. The interaction of many eou;P~lellt­
and weather-related factors determine the potentia' fo~ 
spray drift. The applicator and the grower are respJr.s:01e 
for considering all these factors when making deciSions. 
The following drift management requirements mus: 08 io:­
iowed to avoid off-target drift movement from aena: appli­
cations to agricultura~ field crops, 
1. The distance 01 the outermost nozzles on the boorT' 
must not exceed 3;4 the length of the wingspan or 
rotor. 
2. Nozzles must always point backward paralle: ~\'itn the 
air stream and never be pOinted downwards more 
than 45 degrees. 
Where states have more stringent regulations, the)' shou!d 
be observed. 
The applicator should be familiar with and take Into 
account the Information covered in the Aerial Drift 
Reduction AdVISOry Information presented below. 
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE: 
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is tJ apply 
large droplets. The best drift management strategy IS to 
apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage 
and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift poten~ 
tial, but will not prevent drift if applications are made 
improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions 
(see WIND, TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY, and 
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS). 
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE 
Volume ~ Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the 
highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher 
rated flows produce larger droplets. 
Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer's 
recommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lower 
pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow 
rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead 
01 increasing pressure. 
Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of 
nozzles that provide uniform coverage.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY 
When making applications in low relative hum j'ti, se: JD 
eqUipment to produce larger droplets to compensatt: lJr 
evaporation, Droplet evaporation is most severe wnen 
conditions are both hot and dry. 
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS 
Applications should not occur during a temperatLr~' 'ilver­
sion because drift potential is high. Temperature In-/er-;i'~:ns 
restrict vertical air mixing, which causes smali suspc""'i:L;d 
droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. TtllS C:'JU -: :::an

winds common during inversions. Temperature !nv-?~'c '"18 
are characterized by increasing temperatures W:Hl 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 pres­
ence can be indicated by ground fog; however, jf 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 iow 
wind conditions) Indicates an InverSion, while smoke that 
moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good verti­
cal air mixing. 
SENSITIVE AREAS 
The pesticide shoJld only be applied when the potential 
for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, 
bodies of water. known habitat for threatened or endan­
gered species. or non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. when 
wind is blOWing away trom the sensitive areas). 
Applicator IS responsib,e for any loss or damage which 
results from spraying PURSUIT PLUS EC in a manner 
other than recommended In thiS label. In addition, applica­
tor must follow a!' applicable state and local regulations 
and ordinances In regard to spraying. 
APPLICATIONS WITH FERTILIZERS 
APPLICATIONS WITH LIQUID FERTILIZERS 
Squadron" herbicide can be applied with liquid fertilizers, 
alone or in combination with PROWL 3.3 EC or 
Command 4EC. Follow all Squadron label recommenda­
tions regarding Incorporation, timing of application, special 
instructions and precautions. For other Squadron tank 
mix partners. refer to the individual product labels for spe­
cific recommendations for using these products with liquid 
fertilizers. Apply treatments In 20 or more gallons of liquid 
fertilizer per acre with ground equipment. Maintain continu­
ous agitation In the spray tank to prevent separation. To 
prevent clogging. use only flood nozzles with no nozzle 
screens. 
All individual state regulations relating to fluid fertilizer mix­
ing, registration. labeling and application are the responsi­
bility of the individual and/or company selling the 
Squadron/liquid fertilIZer mixture. 
LIQUID FERTILIZER 
COMPATIBILITY DETERMINATIONS 
If a liqUid fertilizer and herbicide(s) mixture separates in the 
spray tank, clogged equipment and uneven application 
can result, which can cause poor weed control and crop 
injUry. Always predetemnine the compatibility of Squadron 
alone or with PROWL 3.3 EC or Command 4EC in the 
specific liquid fertilizer to be used according to the follow­
ing directions: 
1 . Add 1 pint of fertilizer to each of 2 one-quart jars. 
2. Add 1/2 teaspoon of adjuvant to one jar. 
3. (a) When uSing Squadron alone, add to each jar the 
correct amount of Squadron as specified in the table 
below, 
(b) When uSing Squadron plus PROWL 3.3 EC or 
Command 4EC, (lrst add the specified quantity of 
Squadron, then add the correct amount of PROWL 
3.3 EC or Command 4EC. 
12 
4. Close both Jars and shake thoroughly for 10 seconds. 
Let them stand tor 30 minutes and then observe the 
results. Look for signs of separation. an oily layer or 
globules, sludge, flakes or other preclp:!ates. 
5. Detemnlne compatibility: 
(a) If the mixture without adjuvant does not separate, 
use this mixture in your spray tank. 
(b) If the mixture with adjuvant does not separate, but 
the one without adjuvant separates, use the adjuvant 
mixture in your spray tank. Add the adjuvant to the 
liquid fertilIZer as directed on the manufacturer's label. 
(c) If either mixture separates, but mixes readily with 
shaking:the mixture can be used provlolng good 
agitation is maintained in the spray' tank. 
(d) If separation of the mixture occurs, and agitation 
and/or adjuvant does not correct the problem, 
DO NOT use the herbicide(s) in that specific liquid 
fertilizer.

amount of Squadron must be applied per acre. 
DO NOT impregnate Squadron onto coated ammonium 
nitrate or limestone because these materials will not 
absorb the herbicide. Dry fertilizer blends containing mix­
tures of ammonium nitrate or limestone may be impregnat­
ed with Squadron. A minimum of 200 pounds of impreg­
nated dry bulk fertilizer, excluding the weight of ammonium 
nitrate or limestone, must be applied per acre.

To Impregnate Squadron on bulk iertilizer, use a c:ased 
rotary*drum mixer or other commonly used dry bUif-: fertiliZ­
er blender equipped with suitable spray equ:pmen:. Speay 
nozzles must be placed to provide uniform coverage of 
Squadron onto the fertiiizer during miXing. 
If PROWL 3.3 EC IS to be combined with the Squadron 
prior to impregnation, premix the PROWL 3.3 EC With an 
equal volume of water before adding it to the Squadron. 
DO NOT mix undiluted PROWL 3.3 EC with Squadron. 
Apply the Squadron/dry bulk fertilizer mixture With an 
accurately calibrated dry fertilizer spreader. The 
Squadron/dry bulk fertilizer mixture must be spread 
uniformly on the soil surface. Uneven spreading can cause 
poor weed control and crop injury.

ROTATIONAL CROP RESTRICTIONS for a Classic 
application following Squadron" herbicide soil treat ~ 
ments: 
Soybeans may be planted anytime. Barley, edible beans, 
field corn, grain sorghum, oats, peanuts, rice, tobacco, 
and wheat may be planted 15 months after the last herbl~ 
cide application. Cotton may be planted 18 months after 
the last herbicide application. Refer to rotational crop 
restrictions listed In the Classic label. Always follow the 
more restrictive label. 
Use of Squadron In accordance with label directions IS 
expected to result in normal growth at rotational crops in 
most situations; however, various environmental and agro­
nomic factors make it Impossible to eliminate all risks 
associated with use of this product and, therefore, rota~ 
tlonal crop Injury is always possible. 
Only rotational crops harvested at maturity may be used 
for feed or food. 
Application of products containing chlorimuron ethyl (e.g .. 
Classic, Canopy', Lorox, Pinnacle, Synchrony', etc.), 
imazaquin (e.g., SCEPTER'70DG), imazethapyr (e.g .. 
PURSUIT') the same year as labeled rates of Squadron 
may increase the risk of injury to sensitive rotational crops. 
Consult labels for recommended usage of thes-, products 
in combinations. 
DO NOT graze or feed treated soybean forage, hay or 
straw to livestock.
