# WHIP 1 EC HERBICIDE - EPA Reg No: **264-644** - Registrant: BAYER CROPSCIENCE, LLC - Signal word: Warning - Active ingredients: Fenoxaprop (12.5%) - Label accepted: 1995-01-26 - Source PDF: https://www3.epa.gov/pesticides/chem_search/ppls/045639-00176-19950126.pdf --- ) ) Page 8 0110 2. It is important to calibrate thE:! spray equipment with Whip 1 EC Herbicide in the spray solution. The spray swath width and total volume per acre may vary when compared to other rice herbicides. 3. A flow rneter is recommended to obtain proper water volume (gpa). B. Ground Application: Apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per broadcast acre. Flat fan or hollow cone nozzles are recommended. Use a minimum pressure of 40 PSI. Under dense weed/crop canopies, high spray pressure and increased gallonage is very important in obtaining thorough coverage. To Insure thorough coverage and to avoid drift, DO NOT APPLY when the wind speed exceeds 8 mph. TIMING OF APPLICATION When recommended water management practices are followed (see Water Management section), optimal conditions for controlling grass usually occur when the rice is in the early to late tillering stage of development (but prior to panicle initiation). However, applications should be made in accordance with the following procedure and Rate Recommendation Tables. To detennlne the correct rate per acre to be applied to obtain satisfactory weed control, use either the rice stage of growth or the days after planting method. Utilize the rice stage of growth method unless cultural practices or weed density minimize the number of tillers developing on the rice, than use the days after planting method of rate selection, RATE RECOMMENDATION TABLES FOR THE CONTROL OF WATERGRASS (ECHINOCHLOA SPP.)

Applications made following rice panicle initiation may result in crop , .. / ]i¥I/ injury and associated yield reduction. .. FOR THE CONTROL OF SPRANGLETOP (LEPTOCHLOA SPP.) AND WATERGRASS (ECHINOCHLOA SpP.Jj For the control of sprangletop, applications should be made prior to the emergence of the sprangletop panicle. Applications made follOWing sprangletop panicle emergence may result in regrowth. For the control of sprangletop and watergrass, thorough coverage of the target weed is critically important if optimum results are to be achieved. Sprangletop and watergrass may not be controlled if they are sheltered by rice or other weeds and do not receive thorough coverage. Applications to dense stands of sprangletop or watergrass or large sprangletop plants or watergrass plants (3 tillers or more) make adequate coverage difficult to achieve. Suppression of larger (3 tillers or more) or partially covered weeds may be expected, with regrowth possible. Under these conditions, increasing the application rate to the maximum allowed for the existing rice stage of growth, while at the same time increasing the number of gallons of water applied per acre to 15 to 20 gallons per acre is recommended. Escaped weeds may be retreated with Whip 1 EC Herbicide, however, do not make a second application of Whip 1 EC Herbicide sooner than 14 days after the first application. Do not apply more than 2.4 pints per acre per growing season. WATER MANAGEMENT A sufficient portion of the target grassy weed plant must be exposed to Whip 1 EC Herbicide for satisfactory control to be achieved. Therefore, if necessary, lower or allow water to recede so that at least 70% of the grassy weed foliage is exposed above the water level. Do not increase the water level for at least 3 days following the application of Whip 1 EC Herbicide. A shallow flood (being no deeper than 50% of the height of the ri(;8) may be slowly brought back onto the field following this period. Flood depth may be increased to a height greater than 50% of the height of the rice after an interval of 17days following application. Rice in areas of unusually deep water (inlet checks or low areas within a field) r.iay experience injury following a Whip 1 EC Herbicide application. If pOSSible, lower the water so these areas are under a shallow flood (no deeper than 50% of the hei~ht· .:;1 . the rice) for an interval of 17 days following application. ) ) .. - -- - - ---------------------------, Page 100110 SPECIAL NOTES FOR RICE: 1. DO NOT add a crop oil concentrate to the spray solution when treating rice as rice injury may occur. 2. Rainfall within 1 hour an application may reduce the grass control. 3. DO NOT make more than 2 applications of Whip 1 EC Herbicide per growing season. 00 not make a second application of Whip 1 EC Herbicide within 14 days of tha first application. Do not apply more than 2.4 pints per acre growing season. 4. Whip 1 EC Herbicide may be applied during the period of rice tiller development up to panicle initiation. Do not apply after panicle initiation. S. ALWAYS clean spray system thoroughly before and after any pesticide application. Avoid using any water that is contaminated with other pesticides. 6. DO NOT graze or feed rice straw to livestock. 7. DO NOT plant any rotational crop in a Whip 1 EC Herbicide treated field for 30 days after application. 8. DO NOT apply Whip 1 EC Herbicide in areas where catfish and crayfish are commercially cultivated. 9. DO NOT use rice irrigation wate; to irrigate crops not registered for use with Whip 1 EC Herbicide within 14 days of the last application of this product. 10. DO NOT apply Whip 1 EC Herbicide less than 80 days before harvesting rice. 11. DO NOT apply Whip 1 EC Herbicide for at least 14 days following the activation of fertilizer. 12. Applications of Whip 1 EC Herbicide to grasses under drought stress may result in reduced control. 13. DO NOT apply Whip 1EC Herbicide within 7 days following a Furadan application. 14. DO NOT tank mix Whip 1 EC Herbicide with any other pesticides. 15. Do not apply Whip 1 EC Herbicide within 5 days (before or after) of a phenoxy herbicide application. . 16.

Thorough spray coverage of emerged grasses is important. Visible effects begin as a general chlorosis (yellowing) followed by death of the weed. Visible injury of the grasses is evident approximately 4- 10 days after application (dependent upon environmental conditions); but complete kill of the target grass will take 12-21 days. Since many grass crops, including sorghum and corn, are sensitive to Whip 1 EC Herbicide, avoid all direct or indirect contact to neighboring fields. Whip 1 EC Herbicide does not control broadleaf weeds or sedges. CHEMIGATION DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system. DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Do not apply until you have read the entire labal. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected h
