Avoid making applications when spray particles may be carried by air currents to areas where sensitive crops and plants are growing. Leave an adequate buffer zone between the area to be treated and desirable plants. x PRECAUTIONS: Foliar contact with spray drift or vapors may cause foliar whitening or yellowing of sensitive plants. Symptoms are generally temporary in nature but may persist on some plant species. Application restrictions must be taken as follows: x Observe all buffer restrictions. x Before application, determine air movement and direction. Refer to individual crop use directions for additional requirements. Buffer Restrictions x DO NOT apply within 300 feet of downwind crops and desirable non-target plants. x DO NOT apply within 1.200 feet of Towns and Housing Developments, Commercial Fruit, Nut or Vegetable Production1, Commercial Greenhouses or Nurseries. 1 Except for vegetable crops labeled for use on the Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide label. Application Restrictions x DO NOT apply this product by air or through irrigation equipment l x DO NOT apply Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide to non- field areas including fence rows, waterways, ditches, and roadsides. x When moving spray equipment to noncontiguous sites, DO NOT allow spray solution to spray or drip from tanks, hoses, fittings or spray nozzles and tips. x DO NOT apply when weather conditions favor drift. MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT GROUND BOOM APPLICATION x User must only apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy. x Applicators are required to use a Coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). x DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site. x DO NOT apply during temperature inversions. SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 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 x Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that lar ger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate. x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size. x Spray Nozzle -Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift. BOOM HEIGHT - Ground Boom For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce. 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. Temperat ure 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 (un der low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upwar d and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Av oid applications during temperature inversions. WIND Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift. 4 MIXING AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS FOR BULK/MINI-BULK CONTAINERS Equipment Requirements: Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide is a Microencapsulated Herb icide and requires a diaphragm type pump in order to maintai n product quality. Dispensing Instructions: When ready to dispense Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide fr om the container, the applicator needs to recirculate the prod uct in the container, if the product has settled or separated, for approximately 5 minutes or until the product is thoroughly turned over. Once the product is thoroughly recirculated, the applicator may then begin the process of dispensing Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide into the spray tank, loading or mixing system. RESTRICTIONS x DO NOT use gear or piston-type pumps x The dealer/applicator must wear proper clothing/PPE as listed under Agricultural Use Requirements section above. MIXING AND LOADING INSTRUCTIONS Care must be taken when mixing Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide. Avoid mixing in areas adjacent to desirable plants. Movement from spray drift, vapors or runoff can cause bleaching or chlorosis of sensitive plants. Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide Alone: Mix Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide with water or liquid fertilizer in the following manner: Fill the spray tank one-half to three-fourths full with water or liquid fertilizer, add the proper amount of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide, then add the rest of the water or liquid fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during and throu ghout mixing and application to maintain a uniform spray mixture. Tank Mixtures: It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. 1. Add 1/4 to 1/2 of the required amount of clean water and/or fertilizer to the spray or mixing tank. 2. While maintaining agitation, continue filling the spray tank. When the spray tank is 3/4 full, add any dry formulation (DF, WG) tank mix partners and allow them to completely and uniformly disperse. 3. Add the required amount of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide to the spray tank while maintaining agitation. After the product has completely and uniformly dispersed into the tank mix, add any other liquid tank mix partners and allow them to completely and uniformly disperse. 4. Add the proper amount of spray adjuvant and continue agitation while adding the remaining water and/or fertilizer. 5. Complete filling the tank with clean water and/or fertilizer and always maintain sufficient agitation to ensure surface action until the mixture is uniform. 6. After use, thoroughly clean the sprayer according to this label (see Cleaning Spray Equipment) and any tank mix partner labe ls. Fertilizer Spray Mixtures: Applications of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide alone, or with labeled tank mix partners, in conjunction with fertilizer solutions may be used unless any label use direction specifically states otherwise. Small quantities need to be tested for compatibility by the following procedure before mixing tankful quantities. Compatibility Test A jar test is advised before mixing to ensure Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide compatibility with tank mix partners and adjuvants. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gallons per acre. For other spray volumes, make appropriate changes in the ingredient rates. 1. Add 1.0 pt. of water to each of 2 one-quart jars. Note: Use the same source of water and the other components in the compatibility test that will actually be tank mixed and applied. It is important that all components are mixed at a temperature similar to the temperature of those used for the actual application. 2. To one of the jars, add 1/4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility agent approved for this use (1/4 tsp. is equivalent to 2 pt/100 gallons spray). Shake or stir gently to mix. 3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more than one herbicide is used, add them separately in this order 1) dry herbicides, 2) flowables, then 3) emulsifiable concentrates. Finally, add the appropriate amount of any adjuvants that will be used. After each addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix. a. Dry Herbicides and Adjuvants: For each pound to be applied per acre, add 1.4 tsp. to each jar. b. Liquid Herbicides and Adjuvants: For each pint to be applied per acre, add 0.5 tsp. or 2.5 milliliters to each jar. 4. After adding all ingredients for the tank mixture, replace and tighten lids. Shake jars by inverting the mixture and then let stand for 15 to 30 minutes. 5. After waiting period, check jars for separation, precipitates, flakes, films on the side, gels or other signs of incompatibility. If mixtures separate but can be remixed, the mixture can be sprayed as long as good agitation is used. 6. If the mixtures are incompatible, then try these methods to overcome the problem. A) Make a slurry of dry pesticides in water before adding them to the tank B) Add a compatibility agent or increase the water volume of the mixture. 7. If tank mixtures are incompatible, then DO NOT spray the mixture. (Properly dispose of testing jars and any pesticide waste). SPRAYER CLEANUP DO NOT drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants, or in areas where their roots may extend or in locations where the chemical may be washed or move into contact with their roots. DO NOT contaminate any body of water including irrigation water that may be used on other crops. Carefully follow sprayer clean-up instructions noted below to prevent spray tank residues from damaging other crops. Sprayer equipment needs to be thoroughly rinsed to remove residues of herbicide that might injure other subsequently sprayed cr ops. The steps below need to be followed for the thorough rinsing of spray equipment following applications of Command 3ME Microencapsul ated Herbicide alone or tank mixed with other labeled products. 5 1. Drain any remaining spray solution from tank, pump, hoses and boom and discard in an approved manner (See Note that follows). 2. Clean tank and fittings by: x Thoroughly hosing down the inside walls of the spray tank with a quantity of water equal to 1/8 of the total tank capacity and operating the pump to circulate this solution through the sprayer system for 15 minutes. x Washing down the outside surfaces of equipment. x Removing nozzle tip and screen from end nozzle in each boom section and allowing several gallons of rinsate solution to flush completely through boom (collect rinsate while flushing). 3. Thoroughly drain remaining rinsate solution from tank, pump and hoses. Combine with boom flushing and dispose of all rinsates f rom this first rinsing in an approved manner (see Note that follows). 4. When switching from water dilutions to applications utilizing crop oil or liquid fertilizer as a carrier, a small volume of cro p oil or liquid fertilizer need to be flushed through the tank, pump, hoses, and boom prior to the next use. Dispose of crop oil or liquid fertilizer rinsate in an approved manner (see Note for local, state and federal guidelines). 5. Remove the remaining nozzle tips, and screens and the line filter and wash in a pail of warm soapy water, thoroughly rinse and replace. 6. Hose down the inside walls of the spray tank a second time and circulate this solution using the same procedure as noted in #2 above. 7. If the next use of the sprayer will be for applying a preplant in corporated or preemergence pesticide on any crop for which Com mand 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide is registered, rinsate from this second rinsing may be utilized by diluting with the water for the next pesticide load. When Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide is used in tank mixture with other labeled herbicide(s), refer to the dispos al directions for the most restrictive herbicide in the tank mixture. HOWEVER If the next use of the sprayer will be a postemergence pesticide applied on any crop, drain rinsate solution from this second rinsing. Rinsate solution from the second tank rinse may only be applied to crops in accordance with labeled use directions for Command 3ME Micr oencapsulated Herbicide. When used in tank mixture with other labeled herbicid es, follow the most restrictive sprayer cleanup use directions. Refill tank (after draining second rinsate solution) in accordance with postemergence product label directions. NOTE: Dispose of excess spray mixture and/or rinsate from first tank rinsing by application to registered crops as described on this label. If excess spray mixture and/or rinsate from first rinsing cannot be disposed of according to label instructions, dispose of in compliance with local, state and federal guidelines. Contact your state pesticide or Environmental Control Agency or the Hazardous Waste representativ e at the nearest EPA regional office for guidance. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS Ground Applications Broadcast or Banded Applications: Apply Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide alone or in tank mix combinations by ground equipment using a finished spray volume of 10 to 40 gallons of water per acre. Use nozzles suitable for broadcast boom or banded applicat ion of herbicides. See “APPLICATION DIRECTIONS”, “BUFFER & APPLICATION RESTRICTIONS” and “MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT” sections for specific instructions to reduce spray drift. For Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide tank mixtures with wettable powder or dry flowa ble formulations, nozzle screens and strainers need to be no finer than 50-mesh. Banded Applications—Calculate the rates and volumes required by using the following formulas: Banded rate per acre = Band Width in Inches X Broadcast rate per acre Row Width in Inches Banded volume per acre = Band Width in Inches X Broadcast volume per acre Row Width in Inches Cultivation After Planting If cultivation is necessary because of soil crusting, compaction, or weed emergence, soil treated with Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide may be shallow-cultivated (no deeper than 1.5 - 2”) or rotary-hoed without reducing the efficacy of Command 3ME Microencapsulat ed Herbicide. Avoid deep cultivation which may bring untreated soil to the surface and result in poor weed control. 6 Table 1.

Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to one or more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include the use of multiple herbicides with different sites of action and o verlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or other cultural practices. Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for resistance. The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed re sistance management program. T o aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should: x Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed sizes present. x Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage. x Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches) with a postemergence herbicide. x To minimize resistance, apply full labeled rates of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide. x Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species. x Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively. x Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your FMC representative, consultant, local retailer, or county extension agent. x Contact your FMC representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this MOA have bee n found in your region. x If resistant biotypes of target weeds have been reported, use the application rates of this product specified for your local conditions. Tank mix products so that there are multiple effective sites of actions for each target weed. x If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than Group 13 and/or use nonchem ical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production. x Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators: - Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds. - A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and - Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. 7 x Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is practical: - Use a broad-spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control program. - Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action. - Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 13 mode of action herbicides. - Avoid making more than two applications of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide and any other Group 13 herbicides within a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds. - 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. - Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness. - Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds. - Manage weeds in and around fields during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.

The following factors can contribute to increased risk of injury to rotational crops: 1. Over-application resulting from use of worn nozzles, excessive over-lapping of spray swaths, failing to shut off spray booms when turning (end row areas) or slowing or stopping sprayer. 2. Soil pH ≤5.9. 3. Extreme dryness in the four months following application. 4. Choice of rotational crop hybrid. Additional instructions to prevent rotational crop injury may be provided in the form of service bulletins for locations where risk of injury is significantly increased due to extremely dry conditions. Refer to Rotational Crop Instructions and Replanting Instructions of specific crops for additional crop planting information. 9 FALLOW APPLICATION PRODUCT INFORMATION Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide may be used as a residual preemergence treatment in all tillage systems to control Ital ian ryegrass and other labeled weeds during the fallow per iod following crop harvest and before the following labeled crop is planted. The f all application will need to be followed with a suitable in-season preemergence or post emergence herbicide treatment to provide season long control of the complete target weed spectrum in the following crop. For weeds emerging prior to Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide application, tank mixing with a burndown herbicide labeled to control the target weeds present is necessary. To broaden the weed control spectrum, tank mixing with flumioxazin or metribuzin at labeled rates are effective options. Follow all label directions, rates, restrictions and precautions on the tank mix herbicide partner labeling. Application rates vary by soil texture. For coarse textured soils and low CEC soils, apply 12 to 16 fl oz/A (0.27 to 0.38 lb ai /A). For medium texture soils, apply 16 to 24 fl oz/A (0.38 to 0.56 lbs. ai/A). For fine or heavy soil textures, apply 21 to 28 fl oz/A product (0.49 to 0.66 lb ai/A). For conventional tillage systems where post-harvest tillage is used to prepare for planting the following spring, it is best to allow rainfall to settle the beds prior to Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide application. Optimum performance and residual weed control are achieved when the 4- inch soil depth temperatures are decreasing and are expected to be sustained at less than 55º F and prior to the ground freezing. PRECAUTIONS x Application of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide to fields which have been precision leveled with deep cuts may result i n rice crop injury including stand loss in the spring following the fall fallow application of Command 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide. Consult with rice specialists for soil amending practices which can reduce potential for herbicide injury in precision leveled fields. x Some conditions may lead to temporary whit ening or yellowing of leaves in approved rota tional crops where soil residues of Com mand 3ME Microencapsulated Herbicide exist. Factors that contribute to carryover include, but are not limited to, over-application, soil pH ≤ 5.9, extreme dryness in the four months following application, and/or choice of crop cultivar/hybrid.
