|
||
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||
Non-Target Organism Advisory
|
||
This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of non-target organisms,
|
||
including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target
|
||
organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray drift.
|
||
Drift or runoff may adversely affect non-target plants. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic
|
||
organism in neighboring areas. DO NOT apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to
|
||
intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment
|
||
washwaters or rinsate.
|
||
DO NOT apply when weather conditions favor drift from treated areas. DO NOT use the same spray
|
||
equipment for other purposes unless thoroughly cleaned. DO NOT contaminate water used for irrigation or
|
||
domestic purposes.
|
||
CORVUS® Herbicide contains isoxaflutole which is known to leach through soil into shallow ground water
|
||
under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of CORVUS Herbicide in areas where soils are
|
||
permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in ground water contamination.
|
||
This product can contaminate surface water through spray drift. Under some conditions, product residues
|
||
may also have a high potential for runoff into surface water (primarily via dissolution in runoff water), for
|
||
several weeks after application. These include poorly draining or wet soils with readily visible slopes toward
|
||
adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas, areas over-laying extremely shallow ground water, areas
|
||
with in-field canals or ditches that drain to surface water, areas not separated from adjacent surface waters
|
||
with vegetated filter strips and areas over-laying tile drainage systems that drain to surface water.
|
||
A level, well maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface
|
||
water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of these chemicals from
|
||
runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is
|
||
forecasted to occur within 48 hours.
|
||
In fields having sands, loamy sands and sandy loam soils, special care must be taken not to over-irrigate
|
||
since substantial over-irrigation promotes the leaching of chemicals.
|
||
This pesticide is toxic to some plants at very low concentrations. Non-target plants may be adversely
|
||
affected if the pesticide is allowed to drift from areas of application. Exposure to isoxaflutole residues may
|
||
injure or kill susceptible plants. Symptoms of phytotoxicity as a result of exposure to isoxaflutole include
|
||
whitening or chlorosis of the foliage of affected plants. Cotton is particularly susceptible to isoxaflutole;
|
||
therefore, exposure of cotton to isoxaflutole residues may affect cotton yield. To prevent damage to crops and
|
||
other desirable plants, read and follow all directions and precautions on this label before using.
|
||
The chemicals in this product have properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in
|
||
ground water. These chemicals may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable,
|
||
particularly where the water table is shallow. This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of
|
||
rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product
|
||
is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff, according to the pesticide’s mean
|
||
soil partition coefficient (Kd) for several days after application.
|
||
This product may not be mixed or loaded within 50 feet of any wells (including abandoned wells and
|
||
drainage wells), sink holes, perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, and natural or impounded lakes and
|
||
reservoirs. This setback does not apply to properly capped or plugged abandoned wells and does not apply
|
||
to impervious pad or properly diked mixing/loading areas.
|
||
Operations that involve mixing, loading, rinsing or washing of this product into or from pesticide handling
|
||
or application equipment or containers within 50 feet of any well are prohibited unless conducted on an
|
||
impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be positioned on or moved
|
||
|
||
4
|
||
across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained to contain any product spills or equipment
|
||
leaks, container or equipment rinse or washwater and rainwater that may fall on the pad. Surface water
|
||
shall not be allowed to either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The
|
||
pad shall be sloped to facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient capacity to contain
|
||
at a minimum 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad.
|
||
A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient size to exclude completely precipitation from contact shall be
|
||
of sufficient capacity to contain at a minimum of 100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container
|
||
or application equipment on the pad. Containment capacities as described above shall be maintained at
|
||
all times. The above specific minimum containment capacities do not apply to vehicles when delivering
|
||
pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading site. States may have in effect additional requirements regarding
|
||
wellhead setbacks and operational containment.
|
||
Product must be used in a manner which will prevent back siphoning in wells, spills or improper disposal of
|
||
excess pesticide, spray mixtures or rinsates.
|
||

PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide:
|
||
• is a selective herbicide for the control of important broadleaf and grass weeds in field corn, seed corn, corn
|
||
grown for silage.
|
||
• is formulated as a suspension concentrate containing 2.63 pounds of active ingredients per gallon
|
||
[0.75 lbs Thiencarbazone-methyl a.i., 1.88 lbs Isoxaflutole a.i.].
|
||
• has multiple modes of actions: the first, inhibiting of enzymes that are essential to the protection of chlorophyll
|
||
in plant leaves, and a second blocking the plant’s synthesis of certain amino acids/protein synthesis.
|
||
• is effective in controlling glyphosate-, triazine-, PPO- , ALS- and auxin- herbicide resistant populations of
|
||
weed species.
|
||
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide:
|
||
• may be used in either conventional, conservation tillage, or no-till crop management systems.
|
||
• may be applied preplant [surface–applied or incorporated (less than 2” deep)], preemergence or early
|
||
postemergence.
|
||
• will provide its most effective weed control when applied and subsequently moved into the soil by rainfall,
|
||
sprinkler irrigation or mechanical tillage prior to weed emergence.
|
||
• may be tank mixed or applied in sequential applications with other herbicides to control additional weeds
|
||
• may be applied using either water or sprayable grade fluid fertilizer as a liquid carrier.
|
||
• may be applied by ground application only. Aerial application is not permitted.
|
||
• may be applied as either a broadcast spray or as a band application.
|
||
|
||

|
||
NOTE: Thoroughly mix contents before use and application. Recirculate or mix the product for at least
|
||
5 minutes prior to each use. For large containers, 15 gallons containers or more, mix the product with the
|
||
built-in mixer for 5-10 minutes before each use.
|
||
Refer to the ‘Specific Use Directions’ section of the label for application timing information specific from
|
||
each registered use of CORVUS Herbicide.
|
||
Ground Application (Banding)
|
||
Banding application equipment must be carefully calibrated to prevent crop exposure to concentrations of
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide that exceed the labeled rate for the soil type. It is critical to insure that the calibrated
|
||
band width equates to actual band width realized in field applications. Bands actually delivered at a width
|
||
narrower than targeted will concentrate the product and increase the risk for crop response.
|
||
Even flat spray tip nozzles and a band width of no less than 12” must be used.
|
||
Apply a broadcast equivalent rate and volume per acre. The following equations may be used to make the
|
||
required calculations as follows:
|
||
band width (inches)
|
||
row width (inches) * broadcast rate per acre = banding rate per acre
|
||
band width (inches)
|
||
row width (inches)
|
||
* broadcast spray volume per acre = banding spray
|
||
volume per acre
|
||
Ground Application (Broadcast)
|
||
Apply CORVUS Herbicide either alone or in tank mixtures in a minimum of 10 gallons of spray mixture per
|
||
acre. Uniform, thorough spray coverage is important to achieve consistent weed control. Keep the spray
|
||
boom at the lowest possible spray height above the target surface. Refer to the nozzle manufacturer’s
|
||
specifications for proper nozzle, pressure setting and sprayer speed for optimum product performance and
|
||
minimal spray drift. Uneven application, sprayers not properly calibrated, or improper incorporation may
|
||
decrease the level of weed control and/or increase the level of adverse crop response. Maintain a constant
|
||
ground speed while applying this product to ensure proper distribution. DO NOT overlap spray patterns
|
||
beyond equipment manufacturers specifications as excessive rates may result in adverse crop responses
|
||
and potential stand loss. Maintain adequate agitation at all times, including momentary stops.

• To prevent off-site movement of soil containing this product to non-target areas, DO NOT apply CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide to areas receiving less than 15 inches of average annual precipitation unless supplemented to
|
||
at least the equivalent of 15 inches of annual precipitation with irrigation water.
|
||
• In Minnesota, this product must only be used in accordance with the Minnesota Product Bulletin.
|
||
The Minnesota Product Bulletin, which accompanies the sale and packaging of the product, must be in
|
||
possession of the user at the time of pesticide application.
|
||
• In Wisconsin, this product must only be used in accordance with the Wisconsin Product Bulletin. The
|
||
Wisconsin Product Bulletin, which accompanies the sale and packaging of the product, must be in
|
||
possession of the user at the time of pesticide application.
|
||
Refer to the specific use directions and restrictions in each specific crop section.
|
||
USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||
• Application of CORVUS Herbicide at less than specified rates for the appropriate soil will only provide
|
||
suppression of sensitive weeds.
|
||
HERBICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
For resistance management, please note that CORVUS Herbicide contains both a Group 2 and a Group 27 herbicide.
|
||
Any weed population may contain plants naturally resistant to Group 2 and/or Group 27 herbicides. The resistant
|
||
individuals may dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same fields.
|
||
Appropriate resistance-management strategies must be followed.
|
||
|
||
8
|
||
To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
• Rotate the use of CORVUS Herbicide or other Group 2 and Group 27 herbicides within a growing season
|
||
sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a
|
||
field.
|
||
• Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use is permitted; where information
|
||
on resistance in target weed species is available, use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that
|
||
will control the target weed(s) equally as well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local
|
||
extension service or certified crop advisor if you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently less
|
||
prone to resistance.
|
||
• Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herbicide use that includes scouting and uses
|
||
historical information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage (or other
|
||
mechanical control methods), cultural (e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application
|
||
method and timing to favor the crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties)
|
||
and other management practices.
|
||
• Scout before and after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance
|
||
development. Indicators of possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species
|
||
normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent
|
||
weeds; (2) a spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; (3) surviving plants
|
||
mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed
|
||
production in the affected area by an alternative herbicide from a different group or by a mechanical
|
||
method including hoeing or tillage. Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds to other fields by cleaning
|
||
harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.
|
||
• If a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment with this product, discontinue use of
|
||
this product, and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if
|
||
available.
|
||
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance-management
|
||
and/or integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes.
|
||
• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER

|
||
report resistance.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
Mandatory Spray Drift Requirements
|
||
DO NOT aerially apply this product.
|
||
Ground Applications
|
||
• Apply with the nozzle height directed by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
|
||
• For all applications, applicators are required to use a medium or coarser spray droplet size (ASAE S572.3).
|
||
• 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 (ASAE S572.3) for all applications.
|
||
• 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 greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle
|
||
with a higher flow rate.
|
||
Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure directed 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.
|
||
• BOOM HEIGHT - Ground Boom
|
||
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide uniform coverage.
|
||
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. Temperature 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 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.
|
||
• Boom-less Ground Applications:
|
||
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
|
||
• Handheld Technology Applications:
|
||
Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
|
||
COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS
|
||
Compatibility
|
||
If CORVUS Herbicide is to be tank mixed with liquid fertilizers or other pesticides, compatibility needs to be
|
||
tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 qt)
|
||
of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical
|
||
incompatibility develop, DO NOT use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually will
|
||
appear within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow all parts of the label of each tank-mix product.
|
||
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 direc tions 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.
|
||
Order of Mixing
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide may be used with other specified pesticides, fertilizers, and micronutrients.
|
||
|
||
10
|
||
The proper mixing procedure for CORVUS Herbicide application with water or liquid fertilizer as a carrier:
|
||
1. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 of the required volume of water or liquid fertilizer prior to the addition of
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide.
|
||
2. Add the proper amount of CORVUS Herbicide, then add the rest of the water or liquid fertilizer to the
|
||
desired level.
|
||
3. Maintain sufficient agitation to ensure a uniform spray mixture during application.
|
||
4. If CORVUS Herbicide is applied in a tank mixture with other pesticides, add CORVUS Herbicide to the spray
|
||
tank first and ensure it is thoroughly dispersed before adding other pesticides.
|
||
5. Continue to fill the tank with carrier to the desired volume while agitating. Continue agitation during
|
||
application to ensure a uniform spray mixture.
|
||
RE-SUSPENDING SC PRODUCTS IN SPRAY SOLUTION
|
||
Like other suspension concentrates (SC’s), CORVUS Herbicide will settle if left standing without agitation.
|
||
If the spray solution is allowed to settle for one hour or more, reagitate the spray solution for a minimum of
|
||
10 minutes before application.
|
||
Equipment Cleanup Procedures
|
||
To avoid injury or exposure to non-target crops, thoroughly clean all mixing and spray equipment, including
|
||
pumps, nozzles, lines and screens with a good quality tank cleaner, on approved rinse pad or on the field site
|
||
where an approved crop is to be grown. Mix only as much cleaning solution as needed.
|
||
1. Flush tank, hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water.
|
||
2. Use a pressure washer with a high quality commercial spray tank cleaner in water to clean the inside of the
|
||
spray tank. Take care to wash all parts of the tank, including the inside top surface. If a pressure washer is
|
||
not available, completely fill the sprayer with the cleaning solution to ensure contact of the cleaning solution
|
||
with all internal surfaces of the tank and plumbing. Start agitation in the sprayer and thoroughly recirculate
|
||
the cleaning solution for at least 15 minutes. All visible deposits must be removed from the spraying system.
|
||
3. Flush hoses, spray lines, and nozzles for at least 1 minute with the cleaning solution.
|
||
4. Dispose of rinsate from steps 1-3 in an appropriate manner.
|
||
5. Repeat steps 2-4.
|
||
6. Remove nozzles, screens and strainers and clean separately in the cleaning solution after completing the
|
||
above procedures.
|
||
7. Rinse the complete spraying system with clean water.
|
||
8. For cleanup, use an approved rinse pad or the field site where an approved crop is to be grown.
|
||
ROTATIONAL CROPS
|
||
Rotational crops vary in their response to low concentrations of CORVUS Herbicide remaining in the soil. The
|
||
amount of CORVUS Herbicide that may be present in the soil depends on soil moisture, soil temperature,
|
||
application rate, elapsed time since application and other environmental factors. When CORVUS Herbicide
|
||
is used in combination with other products, always follow the most restrictive rotational crop requirements.
|
||
The following rotational crops may be planted after applying CORVUS Herbicide.

1 The amount of cumulative precipitation required before planting a rotational crop is in addition to the required rotational
|
||
interval given in months. Furrow or flood irrigation must not to be included in total. No more than 7 inches of overhead
|
||
irrigation must be included in total.
|
||
2 Crop varieties planted back at intervals of one year or less must not have known acute sensitivity to ALS-inhibiting
|
||
and/or SU herbicides.
|
||
3 When soil pH is 7.5 or above, crop plant back needs to be delayed to 17 months and to 24 months for crops listed in
|
||
the 17 month interval above.
|
||
4 For CORVUS Herbicide used at 2.25 - 3.3 fl oz. per acre or less and the total of Thiencarbazone-methyl from all sources
|
||
is 0.014 pounds active ingredient per acre or less, sorghum can be planted at the 9 month or longer interval.
|
||
5 All other crops may be seeded only after the completion of a successful bioassay after a CORVUS Herbicide application.
|
||
Refer to the “Field/Small Scale Bioassay” section.
|
||
In the event of crop failure: If the corn crop treated with CORVUS Herbicide is lost, only field corn and corn
|
||
grown for silage may be replanted immediately. DO NOT make an additional application of CORVUS Herbicide.
|
||
Cover Crops
|
||
Use of cover crops as a means of soil improvement, erosion control, weed and/or insect suppression, etc.,
|
||
following harvest of corn in the Fall is increasing. Planting of cover crops in fields treated with CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide is allowed as long as these cover crops are not grazed by livestock nor harvested for food. Cover
|
||
crops are to be tilled under or chemically controlled with burndown herbicides in the spring. Many cover
|
||
crops can be planted within 90-120 days after application of CORVUS Herbicide. However, all potential cover
|
||
crops have not been evaluated for sensitivity to CORVUS Herbicide and significant injury may occur. Prior to
|
||
seeding a cover crop, complete a successful field/small scale bioassay to provide an indication of the level
|
||
of sensitivity to the prior CORVUS Herbicide application. Refer to the “Field/Small Scale Bioassay” section.
|
||
If used in tank mixtures with other herbicides, always follow the most restrictive label.
|
||
Field/Small Scale Bioassay
|
||
A field/small scale bioassay must be completed before rotating to a cover crop other than those specified in
|
||
the “Rotational Crop Restrictions” section of this label. To conduct an effective field bioassay, grow strips of
|
||
the crop(s) you intend to grow the following season in a field previously treated with CORVUS Herbicide. The
|
||
test strip must be placed in a controlled area and must include low areas and knolls, and include variations
|
||
in soil including type and pH. Crop response to the bioassay will determine if the crop(s) grown in the test
|
||
strips can be grown safely in the areas previously treated with CORVUS Herbicide.
|
||
For an effective small scale bioassay, collect uniform samples of all soil types from the CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide-treated field (see example above for types of soil in the sample) and place the soil into a sturdy
|
||
container. Plant the desired cover crop into the soil, apply water and place the container in a warm sunny
|
||
area to allow germination and growth of the crop. Monitor growth of the cover crop over a three to four
|
||
week period. If the crop emerges and grows normally, the risk to establish and grow the cover crop in the
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide-treated field must be acceptable.
|
||
WEEDS CONTROLLED
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide applied as directed in this label will control or suppress the weeds listed below.
|
||
Additional weeds may be controlled with tank mixtures or sequential applications (refer to the Tank Mix
|
||
Instructions and Sequential Application Instructions sections of this label). Always refer to the tank mix
|
||
partner labels for specific use rates and additional directions.

escapes.
|
||
2 These weeds will be partially controlled. Partially controlled weeds will be reduced competition by stunted growth
|
||
and/or reduced populations as compared to non-treated areas. Commercially acceptable control may require the
|
||
application of an appropriate preemergence tank mixture or sequential postemergence herbicide treatment.
|
||
3 Control of these weeds can be gained with the addition of an approved label rate of atrazine.
|
||
4 These weeds may require a postemergence application of DiFlexx ® Herbicide (dicamba, EPA# 264-1173) or other
|
||
appropriate postemergence herbicides.
|
||
SPECIFIC USE DIRECTIONS
|
||
CORN (Field Corn, Seed Corn and Corn Grown for Silage)
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide may be used in either conventional, conservation tillage, or no-till crop management
|
||
systems and may be applied either preplant, preplant incorporated (less than 2” deep), preemergence or
|
||
early postemergence.
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide treatments are most effective in controlling weeds when adequate rainfall is received
|
||
within 14 days after application. If cultivation is necessary because of soil crusting, soil compaction
|
||
or weed germination before rain occurs, use shallow tillage including rotary hoe to lightly incorporate
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide. Make certain corn seeds are below the tilled area. If treated soil is moved during tillage
|
||
practices in such a way that the herbicide barrier is no longer intact, weeds may emerge from areas where
|
||
treated soil has been removed. DO NOT incorporate with a drag harrow after planting.

|
||
RESTRICTIONS FOR USE
|
||
• DO NOT apply more than 5.6 fluid ounces (0.082lbs of isoxaflutole, 0.033lbs of thiencarabzone-methyl)
|
||
of Corvus Herbicide per acre in a single application or exceed the maximum labeled rate for any given
|
||
soil type.
|
||
• Application: DO NOT exceed maximum labeled rate for soil type. Spray overlaps produce areas of over
|
||
application which increase the potential for crop damage.
|
||
• DO NOT apply more than 5.6 fluid ounces (0.082lbs of isoxaflutole, 0.033lbs of thiencarabzone-methyl) per
|
||
acre of Corvus Herbicide per 365 day period or exceed the maximum labeled rate for any given soil type.
|
||
• DO NOT apply more than two applications of CORVUS Herbicide per acre per 365 day period at reduced
|
||
rates.
|
||
• DO NOT exceed from all sources 0.094 pounds per acre of isoxaflutole per and 0.04 pounds per acre of
|
||
thiencarbazone-methyl per year in corn.
|
||
• DO NOT exceed from all sources 0.20 pounds per acre per of cyprosulfamide per year in corn.
|
||
• DO NOT use CORVUS Herbicide in the same season as certain soil-applied organophosphate or carbamate
|
||
insecticides (refer to the ‘SEED/SOIL-APPLIED INSECTICIDE INTERACTIONS section of the label).
|
||
• DO NOT use CORVUS Herbicide on popcorn, or sweet corn.
|
||
• DO NOT irrigate CORVUS Herbicide into coarse soils at planting time when soils are saturated.
|
||
• DO NOT harvest field corn forage within 45 days of application of CORVUS Herbicide.
|
||
• DO NOT use COC or MSO with CORVUS Herbicide applied to emerged field corn.
|
||
• DO NOT apply tank mixtures of CORVUS Herbicide with organophosate or carbamate insecticides to
|
||
emerged corn.
|
||
• DO NOT apply solo HPPD inhibitor Postemergence herbicides to corn that has been treated with CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide in the same growing season.
|
||
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
|
||
• Planting depth: Corn seed must be planted a minimum of 1-1/2 inches deep and must be completely
|
||
covered with soil and furrow firmed or reduced crop stand or injury may occur.
|
||
• Effect of variable soils on use rate: The proper use rate of CORVUS Herbicide is affected by
|
||
several soil factors, including soil texture, organic matter, and soil pH. Soils which contain
|
||
variations in one or more of these factors in a given area are termed variable soils and may be
|
||
more likely to incur localized corn injury symptoms from an application of CORVUS Herbicide,
|
||
especially in those localized areas containing a more coarse soil texture, a lower organic matter
|
||
and/or a higher pH (alkaline/calcareous soil) than other areas of the same field. The user is responsible for
|
||
selecting the appropriate rate of CORVUS Herbicide as specified in the table above that corresponds to all
|
||
soils in the area of application.
|
||
• Effect of adverse weather: Following an application of CORVUS Herbicide, extended periods of cool/cold,
|
||
wet conditions (cool/cold daytime/nighttime temperatures, saturated soil conditions, recurring rainfall
|
||
events, etc.) during corn seed germination and/or early crop development period may result in temporary
|
||
crop injury. Injury symptoms may appear as leaf tissue bleaching (whitening) and/or crop stunting. Corn
|
||
plants usually recover from this injury without affecting yield.
|
||
|
||
14
|
||
• Corn hybrids and certain male pollinators: Corn hybrids and certain male pollinators within blended
|
||
corn varieties vary in their response to CORVUS Herbicide. Not all hybrids or male pollinators within
|
||
blended corn varieties have been tested for sensitivity to CORVUS Herbicide. You need to consult with
|
||
your seed provider, your local Bayer CropScience representative and/or other knowledgeable agricultural
|
||
professionals for advice on sensitivity of hybrids or varieties containing male pollinator lines before
|
||
applying CORVUS Herbicide. If the sensitivity of a hybrid or variety containing male pollinator lines is not
|
||
known, you must apply CORVUS Herbicide to a small area to first determine if the hybrid is sensitive prior
|
||
to spraying large acreages of that hybrid.
|
||
APPLICATION TIMING
|
||
Preplant Surface-Applied
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide may be applied up to 21 days before planting corn. CORVUS Herbicide may be applied
|
||
up to 30 days prior to planting when used in a planned sequential application program including CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide followed by postemergence applied herbicides appropriate for control of the target weeds. Refer
|
||
to all parts of the label of the respective sequential partner for specific use directions and restrictions. Split
|
||
applications of CORVUS Herbicide can be made. It is specified that 60% of the listed broadcast rate (refer to
|
||
Application Rate Table) be applied 15 – 30 days prior to planting and the remaining 40% applied at planting.
|
||
Total CORVUS Herbicide applied may not exceed the listed rate for a preplant treatment on the predominant
|
||
soil type in the field. Moving treated soil out of the row or moving untreated soil to the surface during planting
|
||
may result in reduced weed control.
|
||
Preplant Incorporated
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide may be applied up to 21 days before planting corn. CORVUS Herbicide may be applied
|
||
up to 30 days prior to planting when used in a planned sequential application program including CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide followed by postemergence applied herbicides appropriate for control of the target weeds. Refer
|
||
to all parts of the label of the respective sequential partner for specific use directions and restrictions. Apply
|
||
to the soil and uniformly incorporate in the top two inches of soil before planting using a finishing disc, field
|
||
cultivator or similar implement capable of providing uniform two inch incorporation. DO NOT incorporate
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide deeper than 2” or weed control may be reduced.
|
||
Preplant/Preemergence Burndown
|
||
When weeds are present at the time of treatment and prior to corn emergence, a tank mixture of CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide (+/- DiFlexx® Herbicide - dicamba, EPA# 264-1173) with COC or MSO is advised for burndown of
|
||
labeled weeds 6” or less in height. When weeds are greater than 6” in height or weeds not controlled by
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide are present, the addition of a burndown herbicide (e.g., glufosinate, paraquat, glyphosate,
|
||
or 2, 4-D) is advised. If giant ragweed, common cocklebur, henbit, Pennsylvania smartweed or purple
|
||
deadnettle are present at the time of application, the addition of atrazine will improve control. Observe
|
||
directions for use, precautions and restrictions, and adjuvants on the label of the burndown tank-mixed
|
||
herbicide. When mixing with liquid nitrogen fertilizer or certain glyphosate formulations, substitute a non-ionic
|
||
surfactant for oil concentrates.
|
||
Preemergence
|
||
Apply CORVUS Herbicide during planting (behind the planter after furrow closure) or after planting, but before
|
||
weeds emerge. Failure to thoroughly close and firm the seed furrow may allow herbicide to directly contact
|
||
the seed which can cause injury.
|
||
Early Postemergence
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide can be applied to corn in tank mixture with atrazine from spiking through the 2-leaf collar
|
||
growth stage. Tank-mixtures with other herbicides or adjuvants are not advised for early postemergence
|
||
applications of CORVUS Herbicide to emerged corn as crop response symptoms including bleaching, leaf
|
||
edge necrosis and stunting may result. DO NOT use COC or MSO with CORVUS Herbicide applied to emerged
|
||
field corn.
|
||
Early postemergence applications of CORVUS Herbicide must be made in water as the carrier. Sprayable fluid
|
||
fertilizer as an herbicide carrier for early postemergence applications in corn can typically cause corn injury
|
||
up to and including tissue burn (necrosis). Sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier is not advised for use with
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide after crop emergence unless typical fertilizer burn symptoms on the crop are acceptable.
|
||
DO NOT apply tank mixtures of CORVUS Herbicide with organophosate or carbamate insecticides to emerged
|
||
corn. Foliar applications of organophosphate or carbamate insecticides must not be made within 7 days of
|
||
an application of CORVUS Herbicide or crop injury may result.

|
||
restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all products labels involved in tank mixing. users must
|
||
follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank
|
||
mixture.
|
||
CORVUS Herbicide may be used in tank mixtures with other herbicides for improved control of certain
|
||
broadleaf and grass weeds in corn. Preplant/preemergence/early postemergence tank-mixes with CORVUS
|
||
Herbicide include but are not limited to those listed. Refer to and follow all parts of the label of each tank-mix
|
||
partner.
|
||
Tank-mix combinations may be used in either conventional, conservation tillage or no-till cropping systems
|
||
and may be applied at the same timings as CORVUS Herbicide unless otherwise specified on this label or
|
||
on the tank-mix partner’s label.
|
||
Multiple tank mixtures are allowed unless otherwise specified by the respective product labels. Check all
|
||
tank-mix product labels for proper rates and compatibilities for multiple tank-mixes.
