The effectiveness of this pro­ duct depends on moisture to move it into the root zone. If weeds develop, a shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing will generally result in better weed control. Unusually cold, excessively wet, or hot and dry conditions that delay germination or extend ,germination over a long period of time can r€duce weed control. Seedling diseases, cold weather, excessive moisture, deep planting, low or high soil pH, high soil salt concentration, or drought can weaken seedlings au~. plants and increase the possibility of crop damage from this herbicide. Onder these conditions, crop yields can be reduced. : •••• •••• I ,) •••••• • •• • • • ••••• • •• Application in Water or Liquid Fertilizer: Nitrogen solution or complte 1iquid •• fertilizer may replace all or part of the water as a carrier for preem4lUIl1:e o·:··. corn.

... ,... .,-;:.1 " -" To determine the compatibility of PROZINE with liquid fertilizer, pourthe pro­ duct into a small container of liquid fertilizer in the proportions shown below. For different spray volume or herbicide rate, make appropriate changes in the ingredients. For each pound of PROZINE to be applied per acre, add 1 level teaspoon of the product to one pint of liquid fertilizer (assuming a volume of 25 gallons per acre). After thorough mlx1ng, let stand ~ minutes. If the herbicide/fertilizer com­ bination remains mixed, or can be remixed readilYJ make a slurry with the her­ bicide before adding fertilizer and use the roixturl: only if this test shows it is compatible. ROTATIONAL CROPS: (1) Do not rotate to any crop except corn or sorghum until the following year, as injury may occur. (2) In the High Plains and :ntprmoun­ tain areas of the West where rainfall is sparse and erratic or where irrigation is required, use only when corn or sorghum is to follow corn or sorghum or when a crop of untreated corn or sorghum is to precede other rotational crops. (3) Injury may occur to soybeans planted in north-central and northwest Iowa, south­ central and southwest Minnesota, northeast Nebraska, southeast South Dakota, and other areas the year following application on soils having a calcareous surface layer. (4) In eastern parts of the Dakotas, Kansas, western innesota) and Nebraska, do not rotate to soybeans if the rate applied to corn sorghum was reore than 4 pounds per Acre (or equivalent band application rate) 0r soybean injury may occur. (5) Do not plant sugarb~~ts, tobacco, vegetables (including dry beans), spring-seeded small grains, or small-seeded legumes ar.d grasses the year following application as injury may occur. APPLICATION PROCEDURES GROUND APPLICATION: Use convel!tonal ground sprayers equipped with .. "zzles that provide accurate and uniform application. Be certain that nozzles are uniformly spaced and are tha same size. Calibrate sprayer before use and recalibrate at the start of each season and when changing carriers. Unless otherwise spec­ ified, use a minimum of 10 gallons of spray mixture per acre for preemeq~ence and postemergence a9plications with ground equipment. Use a pump with capacity to (l) maintain 35-40 psi at nozzles, (2) provi,de sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension, and (3) to p'r:5vide " minimum of 20% bypass at all times.

Fill tank! full with clean water J nitrogen solution, or complete liquid fertilizer. Start agitation. Be certain that the agitation system is working properly and creates ~ rippling or rolling action on the liquid surface. Pour product directly from container into tank. Let it wet and settle into solution. Continue filling tank until 90% full. lncrease agitation if necessary to main­ tain surface action. Finish filling tank. Maintain agitatton to avoid separa­ tion of materiale. Clean sprayer thoroughly immediately after use by flushing system with water containing a detergent.

\al CORN - FI ELD AND SliEET GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Use only where adequate tillage is practiced to provide good soil coverage of the corn seed. Plant corn AT LEAST l~ inches deep to ensure good seed coverage. PROZINE is most effective in controlling weeds when adequate rainfall or over­ head irrigation is received within 7 days after application. If cultivation is necessary because of soil crusting, soil compaction or weed gerlnination before rain or irrigation, use shallow tillage (such as rotary hoe), and make certain corn seeds are below the tilled area. For maximum effectiveness, wait at least 7 to 10 days before cultivating early postemergence treatments. Field Corn Grown In Minimum Tillage Systems PROZINE may be used in field corn in minimum tillage systems where adequate tillage is practiced to provide a seedbed without living vegetation and which allows for good seed coverage. Plant corn AT LEAST It inches deep to ensure good seed coverage. The use of no-till planters in minimum tillage corn under conditions which do not allow good soil coverage of the corn seed can result in reduced crop stand or injury if PROZINE contacts the germinating corn seed. Check equipment to ensure good seed coverage. Apply in 20 or more gallons of spray solution per acre. PREEMERGENCE (Surface Treatment After Planting) Apply PROZINE reemergence after planting, but before weeds or crop emerge. Apply in water or liquid fertilizer with ground equipment or in water with aircraft. Refer to section on application in water or liquid fertilizer for liquid fertilizer compatibility determinations. DO NOT INCORPORATE or serious corn injury will result. EARLY POSTEHERGENCE Apply PROZINE after corn emergence but no later than when corn is in the 4-leaf stage of giowth and when weeds are no more tl. ' I inch high J except for ~~>::as panicum wnch must be no larger than the I to L leaf stage. Apply with g,'ound equipment or aircraft in water ONLY. For ground applications, flat fa Qot?les are preferred. DO NOT apply following PROWL preemergence treatment.

NOTE FOR ALL APPLICATIONS TO CORN: DO NOT graze or feed forage from treated areas for 21 days following application. FIELD CORN AND GRAIN SORGHUH POSTEHERGENCE INCORPORATED APPLICATIONS GENERAL INFORHATION: Winter wheat and winter barley may be planted in the fall 90 days after an application with PROZINE postemergence incorporated in irri­ gated field corn or grain sorghum or 120 days after an application in dry land field corn or grain sorghum. The treated crop must be grown to maturity and harvested be {ore planting wheat or barley. See GENERAL INFORHATION for comple.te rotational instructions. PROZINE applied as a postemergence incorporated treatment will control most late season annual grasses and certain broadleai weeds in field corn or grain sorghum. Treatments can be applied from the 4-inch growth stage to as late as the last cultivation (layby) of field co,n or grain sorghum. Treatments will not control established weeds.

For beat results, treatments should be incorporated as soon as possible after application but incorporation must be completed within 7 days after application. If ade­ quate moisture is not received within 7 days after application, PROZINE must be incorporatd with a sweep-type or rolling cultivator. Under situations of-low rainfall or soil moisture) when deep germinating weeds such as shattercane or field sandbur are anticipated) mechanical incorporation will provide best results. If cultivation is needed after application and incorporation, the depth of cut should be no deeper than the depth of cut used to incorporate. DO NOT APPLY PROZINE in field corn or grain sorghum more than once per crop season. WEEDS CONTROLLED: When applied as directed, PROZIN will control shattercane (Sorghum bicolor) and wild proso millet (Panicum miliaceum) in addition to the WEED SPECIES CONTROLLED previously listed. ADDITIONAL HERBICIDE APPLICATIONS: Postemergence incorporated applications of PROZINE can be applied in field corn or grain sorghum previously treated with herbicides registered for use in field corn or grain sorghum.
