Product Information Distinct ® herbicide is a selective postemergence herbi- cide for the control of annual and biennial broadleaf weeds and control or suppression of many perennial broadleaf weeds in field corn, popcorn, sweet corn, between-crop application, Conservation Reserve Program land, noncropland sites, pasture, hay, and rangeland sites. Examples of noncropland sites include, but are not limited to: railroad, utility, pipeline and highway rights-of-way; rail- road crossings, utility plant sites, petroleum tank farms, pumping installations, nonagricultural fencerows, and airports. Distinct provides suppression of annual grass weeds at appropriate rates. Emerged grass up to 3-inches tall will stop growing but may remain green for weeks after appli- cation. Regrowth of grass is limited when crop canopies over row middles. Distinct may be applied sequentially or tank mixed with a grass herbicide for a complete weed control program; refer to Tank Mixing Information . Use of this product in certain portions of Oregon and Washington is subject to the January 22, 2004, Order for Injunctive Relief in Washington Toxics Coalition, et. al. v. EP, C01-0132C, (W.D. WA). For further information, please refer to http://www.epa.gov/espp/litstatus/wtc/index.html. Mode of Action Distinct is absorbed by leaves, roots, and shoots and is translocated to the growing points of sensitive weeds to provide postemergence control of emerged weeds as well as moderate residual control of germinating weeds. Distinct controls weeds by auxin transport inhibition and auxin agonist modes of action. In addition, Distinct can complement the activity of other auxin-like herbicides such as clopyralid, picloram, and triclopyr. 5 Weeds treated with Distinct ® herbicide will typically dis- play symptoms within several hours and be controlled in 3 to 7 days. Control of larger annual, biennial, or perennial weeds may require additional time. Treated weeds will stop growing soon after application. Broadleaf weeds will dis- play epinastic twisting and crinkling symptoms before becoming necrotic. Weed Resistance Management While weed resistance to herbicides is infrequent, popula- tions of resistant biotypes are known to exist. Resistance management should be part of a diversified weed control strategy that integrates multiple options including chemi- cal, cultural, and mechanical (tillage) control tactics. Cultural control tactics include crop rotation, proper fertiliz- er placement, optimum seeding rate/row spacing, and timely tillage. To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, follow these steps where practical: • Start clean with tillage or an effective burndown herbi- cide program. • DO NOT rely on a single herbicide site of action for weed control during the growing season. • Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed sizes present. • Apply full labeled rates of Distinct for the most difficult-to-control weed in the field at the specified time (correct weed size) to minimize weed escapes. • Use of preemergence herbicides that provide soil residu- al control of broadleaf and grass weeds is recommended to reduce early season weed competition and allow for more timely in-crop postemergence herbicide applications. • Avoid application of herbicides with the same site of action more than twice a season. • Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in weed species. • Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed species to your BASF retailer, representative. • If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with a herbicide having a different mode of action and/or use non-chemical methods to remove escapes, as is practi- cal, with the goal of preventing further seed production. • For more information about weeds that are known to be resistant to dicamba go to www.Resistance-Information.BASF.US . Additionally, follow as many of these herbicide resistance management practices as is practical: • Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other modes of action as a foundation in a weed control program. • Utilize sequential applications of effective herbicides with alternative modes of action. • Rotate the use of this product with herbicides having a different mode of action. • Avoid making more than two applications of Distinct and any other Group 4 or Group 19 herbicides within a single growing season unless mixed with another site of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-to- control weeds. • Contact your local sales representative, crop advisor, or extension agent for find out if suspected resistant weeds to these sites of action have been found in your region. DO NOT assume that each listed weed is being con- trolled by multiple mechanisms of action. Co-formulated active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum of weed control. Some weeds may be controlled by only one of the active ingredients in this product. • Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, such as mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program. • Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before and after leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds. • Manage weeds in and around fields during and after har- vest to reduce weed seed production. • Contact the local agricultural extension service, BASF representative, ag retailer or crop consultant for further guidance on weed control practices as needed. Crop Tolerance Labeled crops are generally very tolerant to Distinct appli- cation. Temporary injury may occur under conditions of crop stress or rapid growth. Crop stress can be caused by drought, poor fertility, other pesticides (i.e. other herbi- cides), or foliar damage because of hail, wind, or insects. Injury can be avoided by agronomic practices that pro- mote good crop growth and minimize stress conditions, especially combinations of stress factors. Crop leaning may occur during periods of rapid growth but is usually temporary and dissipates within 7 days without subse- quent yield reduction. Crops growing under stress conditions such as drought, poor fertility, or foliar damage because of hail, wind, or insects can exhibit various injury symptoms that may be more pronounced if herbicides are applied. Coverage Weeds must be thoroughly covered with spray. Dense leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds and can prevent adequate spray coverage. Cultivation Avoid disturbing (e.g. tillage or cultivating) treated areas for at least 7 days following application to allow best herbicide uptake, translocation, and weed control. Cleaning Spray Equipment Clean application equipment thoroughly using a strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the manufacturer’s directions. Triple rinse the equipment before and after applying this product. 6 Application Instructions Best product performance is obtained when Distinct ® herbicide is applied to actively growing weeds. Distinct may be applied as a ground broadcast or spot spray appli- cation or as an aerial application (only as directed) at a rate of 4 to 8 ounces per acre plus spray additive (see Spray Additives). DO NOT make aerial application to corn. To avoid uneven spray coverage, DO NOT apply Distinct during periods of gusty winds or when wind speed exceeds 10 mph. Weeds treated with Distinct will typically display symp- toms within several hours and be controlled in 3 to 7 days. Treated weeds will stop growing soon after application. Broadleaf weeds will display epinastic twisting and crin- kling symptoms before becoming necrotic. Suppressed grass weeds may display some epinasty and remain stunt- ed and green. Aerial Application Methods and Equipment Use 2 or more gallons of water per acre. Select nozzles designed to produce a minimal amount of fine spray particles. The actual minimum spray volume per acre is determined by the spray equipment used. Use adequate spray volume to provide accurate and uniform distribution of spray particles over the treated area and to avoid spray drift. Make aerial application at the lowest safe height to reduce exposing the spray to evaporation and wind. Ground Application Methods and Equipment Distinct, a wettable granule formulation, can be applied using water as the spray carrier. Water Volume. Select an appropriate spray volume that ensures adequate coverage of the target weed species. Use higher water volumes when treating dense or tall veg- etation. DO NOT apply less than 3 gallons of spray volume per acre. Application Equipment. Use ground application equip- ment that will provide good spray coverage of weed foliage. Exercise preventive measures to avoid drift onto nontarget areas. SPRAY DRIFT Aerial Applications: • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • Applicators must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site. If the wind speed is greater than 10 miles per hour, the boom length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed-wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. • DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater applica- tion height is necessary for pilot safety. • Applicators must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. DO NOT apply during temperature inversions. Ground Boom Applications: • User must only apply with the release height recom- mended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the products applied in ground or crop canopy. • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site. • DO NOT apply during temperature inversions. Boom-less Ground Applications: • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site. • DO NOT apply during temperature inversions. Spray Drift Advisories THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR 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 • 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 7 greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate. • Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommend- ed for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size. • Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift. Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft • Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recom- mendations 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. Boom-less Ground Applications Setting the release height at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift. 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. 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. Tem- perature 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. Avoid applica- tions during temperature inversions. Wind Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Spray Additives Adjuvants must be used with Distinct ® herbicide for consistent weed control. Nonionic Surfactant (all uses) Use 1 quart (0.25% volume/volume [v/v]) of an 80% active nonionic spray surfactant per 100 gallons of water. Nitrogen Source (field corn, popcorn, sweet corn, between-crop application) For best results under most conditions, combine a nonion- ic surfactant (NIS) with urea ammonium nitrate (UAN). Use a minimum of 5 quarts UAN (28% to 34% nitrogen) per 100 gallons. Spray grade ammonium sulfate (AMS) (21% nitrogen) may be substituted for UAN at a minimum of 5 lbs/100 gallons spray mix. Use high-quality AMS (spray grade) to avoid plugging nozzles. When using AMS, dissolve Distinct in the tank before adding AMS. Because most nitrogen solutions are mildly corrosive to galvanized steel, mild steel, and brass spray equipment, rinse the entire spray system with water soon after use. Methylated Seed Oil (CRP, noncropland, pasture, and rangeland) Methylated vegetable-based seed oil concentrate may be used at the rate of 1.5 to 2 pints/A. When using spray vol- umes greater than 30 gallons/A, mix methylated seed oil (MSO) or vegetable-based seed oil concentrates at 1% of the total spray volume. Methylated seed oils may aid in deposition and uptake of Distinct for hard-to-control perennials, waxy leaf species, or when plants are under moisture or temperature stress. Compatibility Test for Mix Components Add components in the following sequence using 2 teaspoons for each pound of dry product or 1 teaspoon for each pint of liquid product of specified label rate per acre. EXAMPLE: 1 teaspoon per 8 ozs/A Distinct rate. 1. Water - For 20 gallons/A spray volume, use 3.3 cups (800 mL) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates accordingly. Use only water from the intended source at the source temperature. 2. Products in PVA bags - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles. 3. Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-emulsions) - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles. 4. Water-soluble products such as Distinct - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles. 5. Emulsifiable concentrates - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles. 6. Water-soluble additives (i.e. AMS, NIS, or UAN when applicable) - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles. 7. Let the solution stand for 15 minutes. 8. Evaluate solution for uniformity and stability. The spray solution should not have free oil on the surface, or fine particles that precipitate to the bottom, or thick (clab- bered) texture. If the spray solution is not compatible, repeat the compatibility test with the addition of a suit- able compatibility agent. If the solution is then compatible, use the compatibility agent as directed on its label. If the solution is still incompatible, DO NOT mix the ingredients in the same tank. 8 Mixing Order 1. Water - Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank 1/2 full of clean water.* 2. Products in PVA bags - Place any product contained in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before continuing. 3. Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo- emulsions) 4. Water-soluble products such as Distinct ® herbicide 5. Emulsifiable concentrates 6. Water-soluble additives (NIS, AMS, or UAN when applicable) 7. Remaining quantity of water Maintain constant agitation during application. For more information, refer to Tank Mixing Information . * User may fill the spray tank from a nurse tank containing an AMS prod- uct dissolved in water. For this method, thoroughly dissolve the AMS product before adding Distinct. Distinct must be thoroughly dissolved before adding additional products or additives. Verify that the AMS pre- mix water alternative is compatible with other tank mix components. Tank Mixing Information Use Distinct sequentially or tank mix with other herbicides as part of a complete weed control program.

Refer to Sweet Corn section for use on sweet corn. Application Rate and Timing DO NOT apply by air to corn. Distinct can be applied at the rates and growth stages listed in Table 3 in all tillage systems (e.g. conventional, no-till, reduced tillage). • Preplant Application in Reduced or No-till Corn - Distinct can be applied up to 7 days before planting corn at 4 to 6 ozs/A. When planting into a legume sod (e.g. alfalfa or clover), apply Distinct at 6 to 8 ozs/A after 4 to 6 inches of regrowth. Allow at least 15 days before planting if using more than 6 ozs/A. Adjuvants must be used with Distinct for consistent weed control. DO NOT use crop oil with Distinct after crop emergence or crop injury may result. When using liquid fertilizer as the carrier, always pre- slurry Distinct in water before adding to fertilizer solutions. Add the Distinct slurry to the final complete fertilizer mixture. DO NOT add Distinct during the fertil- izer mixing process. Always use good agitation while adding the Distinct slurry to liquid fertilizers; maintain good agitation until sprayed. Conduct a compatibility test with all components when using liquid fertilizers as a car- rier for Distinct. Use of sprayable fluid fertilizer as the carrier is not recommended for application of Distinct made after corn emergence. • Very Early Postemergence (spike through 4-inch corn stage) - Apply Distinct at 4 ozs/A. • Early Postemergence (4-inch to 10-inch corn stage) - Apply Distinct at 6 to 8 ozs/A to provide knockdown and residual control through corn canopy closure. Apply Distinct early postemergence to minimize weed compe- tition and maximize corn yield potential. • Mid-postemergence (10-inch to 24-inch corn stage) - Apply Distinct at 4 ozs/A. • Late Postemergence (Rescue) Application with Drop Nozzles - Apply Distinct at 4 ozs/A to corn 24-inches to 36-inches tall when using drop nozzles. DO NOT apply when corn is within 15 days of tassel emergence. Avoid direct spray application into the whorl of corn plants or crop injury may occur. 10 • Split Application - Split applications of Distinct ® herbicide may be made during a growing season. DO NOT exceed a total of 10 ozs of Distinct per treated acre per crop year. Allow a minimum of 15 days between sequential applications of Distinct. Table 3.

Field Corn Tank Mixes and Sequential Uses In addition to control of many broadleaf weed species, Distinct offers herbistatic suppression of several annual grass weeds that may enhance overall control of your grass herbicide program. For commercial control of grass, use Distinct as a sequential postemergence treatment following a preemergence grass herbicide (e.g. G-Max Lite TM herbicide, Outlook® herbicide) or in tank mix combination with a postemergence grass herbi- cide (e.g. Accent ® herbicide, Option® herbicide). Corn Tank Mix Restrictions and Limitations Distinct may be applied sequentially or in tank mixes with other herbicides registered for use in corn (including herbi- cides registered for use in corn hybrids tolerant to glyphosate, glufosinate, and imidazolinone) with the follow- ing limitations: • When tank mixing Distinct for use on popcorn, ensure the tank mix partner is registered for use in popcorn. • When tank mixing Option, MSO at the rate of 1.5 pints/A may be used in place of NIS. • DO NOT use Distinct postemergence in tank mixes with plant growth regulating herbicides such as those products that contain dicamba; 2,4-D; or clopyralid (e.g. Banvel ® herbicide, Celebrity ® Plus herbicide, Clarity ® herbicide, Hornet® herbicide, NorthStar ® herbicide, Shotgun® herbicide, Weedone® 64 herbicide). Additionally, separate sequential treatments with these products by at least 15 days. • DO NOT use tank mixes with emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulations of chloroaceteamide grass herbicides (e.g. Dual II Magnum ® herbicide, Harness® herbicide, Outlook, Surpass® herbicide) after corn emergence. • Distinct may be used sequentially with all soil-applied insecticides or used sequentially or in tank mixes with foliar-applied insecticides with the following limitations: DO NOT use Distinct in foliar-applied tank mixes with Ambush ® EC insecticide or Lorsban® insecticide. However, sequential treatments with these products may be used if applications are separated by at least 7 days. Sweet Corn Use in sweet corn not permitted in California unless other- wise directed by supplemental labeling. DO NOT apply by air to sweet corn. Apply 2 to 4 ozs/A of Distinct for suppression of broadleaf weeds listed in Table 4. Apply when weeds are less than 3-inches tall and when sweet corn is from 4-inches to 24-inches tall. For improved spray coverage of weeds and to minimize risk of crop injury, use drop nozzles that direct the spray away from the whorls and beneath the leaves of sweet corn greater than 10-inches tall. Use only a nonionic surfactant at a rate of 0.25% v/v (1 quart/100 gallons) as the spray additive when applying this product on sweet corn. Sweet Corn Restrictions and Limitations • DO NOT apply by air to sweet corn. • DO NOT apply to sweet corn without first verifying the selectivity of Distinct on your specific hybrid with your local seed supplier. • DO NOT use Distinct on sweet corn grown for seed production. • If sequential applications are used, applications must be separated by a minimum of 2 weeks and must not exceed a total of 6 ozs/A per season. Sweet corn ears or forage may be harvested at 32 or more days after application. • DO NOT apply within 72 days of dry grain or stover harvest. Tank Mixes Distinct may be tank mixed with atrazine or Basagran® herbicide for improved broadleaf weed control in sweet corn. DO NOT tank mix with other herbicides or insecti- cides when using Distinct in sweet corn. 11 Between-crop Application Fall Application Following crop harvest and before frost, apply 2 to 8 ozs/A of Distinct ® herbicide to control emerged broadleaf weeds. For best performance, apply Distinct when weeds are in the 2-leaf to 4-leaf stage or when rosettes are less than 2-inches across. Any crop may be planted the following spring, 120 days after application in the fall. Refer to Restrictions and Limitations for details on crop rotation restrictions within 120 days and maximum seasonal use rate. Spring Application Apply 2 to 4 ozs/A of Distinct to control emerged broad- leaf weeds in the spring. For best performance, apply Distinct when weeds are in the 2-leaf to 4-leaf stage or when rosettes are less than 2-inches across. Following a Distinct application and a minimum accumu- lation of 1-inch rainfall or overhead irrigation, a 30-day waiting interval is required before planting alfalfa, cereal grain crops, corn, cotton, grain sorghum, and soybeans. A 120-day waiting interval is required before planting all other crops. • DO NOT make Distinct spring between-crop applica- tion in geographic areas with average rainfall less than 25 inches, or in California. • DO NOT exceed 4 ozs/A in a spring between-crop application. • DO NOT exceed maximum rate per season when apply- ing both fall and spring applications to site. See Table 2 for maximum rate per season by crop or use site. • DO NOT apply additional dicamba-containing products (e.g. Banvel ® herbicide, Clarity ® herbicide) in tank mixture or sequentially in the same spring season. Site-specific Information Rights-of-Way, Industrial Areas, and other Noncropland Sites Distinct may be applied by ground and aerial application methods at 2 to 8 ozs/A for broadleaf weed control in roadside, utility, pipeline, and railroad rights-of-way, and other noncropland sites; see Table 4 for weed list. Distinct may be applied alone or with suitable tank mixes to broaden or enhance weed control. See Table 1 for additional information on tank mixes. Distinct may be used for postemergence broadleaf weed control in non- cropland sites where total vegetation control is desired. DO NOT apply more than 10 ozs/A of Distinct per sea- son in rights-of-way, industrial areas, and other noncropland sites. Pasture and Rangeland Pasture and rangeland grass treated with Distinct can be grazed immediately after application or harvested for live- stock feed 7 days after application. Distinct may be applied by ground and aerial application methods [Alternate Text: by ground and aerial application methods with aerial only permitted in the states of Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming] at 2 to 8 ozs/A in pasture and range- land sites for postemergence broadleaf weed control; see Table 4 for weed list. Distinct may be used alone or in combination with other pasture/rangeland labeled herbicides to enhance control of perennial weeds or com- plement the spectrum of weeds controlled. See Table 1 for additional information on tank mixes. DO NOT apply more than 8 ozs/A of Distinct per season in pasture and rangeland. DO NOT apply Distinct to small grains grown for pasture or to newly seeded grass. Established grass growing under environmental stress can exhibit various injury symptoms that may be more pronounced if herbicides are applied. Distinct may injure bentgrass, buffalograss, car- petgrass, St. Augustinegrass, and velvetgrass. Distinct will severely injure alfalfa, clover, lespedeza, vetch, wild winter peas, and other legumes. For Use in Intensively Managed Forage Grass, such as Forage Grass Grown for Hay, in the states of Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming Apply 2 to 4 ozs/A Distinct in forage grass for postemergence broadleaf weed control. Distinct may be applied by ground and aerial application methods. Aerial application is only permitted in the states of Montana, Utah, and Wyoming. Distinct may be used alone or in combination with other pasture/rangeland-labeled herbicides to improve control of perennial weeds or complement the spectrum of weeds controlled. When tank mixed with 2,4-D, DO NOT use more than 1.5 pints/A of 2,4-D. For improved consistency of weed control, only use non- ionic surfactant at a rate of 1 quart of an 80% active NIS spray surfactant per 100 gallons of water (0.25% v/v). DO NOT apply Distinct to forage grass during, 3 days before, or 3 days after a frost/freeze event because poten- tial crop injury may occur. 12 Conservation Reserve Programs Distinct ® herbicide may be applied by ground and aerial application methods [Alternate Text: by ground and aerial application methods with aerial only permitted in the states of Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming] at 2 to 8 ozs/A in established grass stands in Conservation Reserve Programs (CRP) or federal Set-aside Programs for postemergence broadleaf weed control. Distinct may be used alone or in combination with other CRP-labeled herbicides to enhance control of perennial weeds or complement the spectrum of weeds controlled. DO NOT apply more than 8 ozs/A of Distinct per season in CRP land. DO NOT apply Distinct to newly seeded grass. Estab- lished grass growing under environmental stress can exhibit various injury symptoms that may be more pro- nounced if herbicides are applied. Distinct may injure bentgrass, buffalograss, carpetgrass, St. Augustinegrass, and velvetgrass. Distinct will severely injure alfalfa, clover, lespedeza, vetch, wild winter peas, and other legumes. Weeds Controlled Distinct will provide postemergence control of annual and biennial broadleaf weeds and control or suppression of many perennial broadleaf weeds including ALS-resistant 1 and triazine-resistant biotypes. Distinct provides suppression of annual grass weeds at appropriate rates. Emerged grass up to 3-inches tall will stop growing but may remain green for weeks after appli- cation. Regrowth of grass is limited when crop canopies over row middles. 1 ALS (acetolactate synthase)-resistant weeds include those weeds resis- tant to the sulfonylurea, imidazolinone, and/or sulfonamide family of herbicides.
