Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Applicators and other handlers must wear: • Long-sleeved shirt and long pants • Chemical-resistant gloves such as barrier laminate, butyl rubber ≥ 14 mils, nitrile rubber ≥ 14 mils, neoprene rubber ≥ 14 mils, natural rubber (includes natural rubber blends and laminates) ≥ 14 mils, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) ≥ 14 mils, or viton ≥ 14 mils • Shoes plus socks Follow the manufacturers instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this products concentrate. DO NOT reuse them. USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS Users should: • Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. • Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. • Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing. Environmental Hazards This pesticide may be hazardous to plants outside the treated area. DO NOT apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark except as directed in this label. Off-site movement from spray drift, volatilization, and run- off may be hazardous to neighboring crops and vegetative habitat utilized for food and cover by wildlife and aquatic organisms. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate. Nontarget Organism Advisory Statement: This prod- uct is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of nontarget organisms, including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and habitat of nontarget organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray drift. Groundwater Advisory Statement: This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. This chemical may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. Surface Water Advisory Statement: 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 for several months or more after application. 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 Raptor ® herbicide from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours. Directions For Use It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a man- ner inconsistent with its labeling. This label must be in the possession of the user at the time of pesticide application. FIRST AID If on skin or clothing • Take off contaminated clothing. • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes. • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. If in eyes • Hold eyes open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 to 20 minutes. • Remove contact lenses, if present, after first 5 minutes; then continue rinsing eyes. • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. If inhaled • Move person to fresh air. • If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance; then give artificial respiration, prefer- ably mouth to mouth if possible. • Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. HOTLINE NUMBER Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or doctor or going for treatment.

Product Information Raptor® herbicide, a soluble liquid, is a postemergence herbicide to control and suppress many broadleaf and grass weeds and sedges, as listed in this label. The mode of weed-killing activity involves uptake of Raptor by foliage and/or weed roots and rapid transloca- tion to the growing points. After Raptor application, susceptible weeds may show yellowing, and weed growth will stop. Susceptible weeds stop growing and either die or are not competitive with the crop. Adequate soil moisture is important for optimum Raptor activity. When adequate soil moisture is present, Raptor will provide residual activity on susceptible germinating weeds. Activity on established weeds will depend on the weed species and the location of its root system in the soil. A timely cultivation after Raptor application may improve weed control. Occasionally, internode shortening and/or temporary yel- lowing of crop plants may occur following Raptor application. These effects can be more pronounced if crops are growing in stressful environmental or hot and humid conditions. These effects occur infrequently and are temporary. Normal growth and appearance should resume within 1 to 2 weeks. DO NOT tank mix organophosphate or carbamate insecticides with Raptor on listed crops unless otherwise specified in writing by BASF. When organophosphate (such as Lorsban ® insecticide) or carbamate insecti- cides are tank mixed with Raptor, temporary injury may result to the treated crop. Separate organophosphate and Raptor application by at least 7 days to reduce potential for injury. Use of Raptor is expected to result in normal growth of rotational crops in most situations; however, various envi- ronmental and agronomic factors make it impossible to eliminate all risks associated with the use of this product and, therefore, rotational crop injury is always possible. Additional state restrictions and requirements may apply. The applicator must comply with any additional state requirements and restrictions. Replanting If replanting is necessary in a field previously treated with Raptor, the field may be replanted to beans (dry), Clearfield ® canola, Clearfield corn, Clearfield lentil, Clearfield rice, Clearfield and Clearfield ® Plus sunflower, Clearfield and Clearfield Plus wheat, edama- me, pea (English), peas (dry), lima bean (succulent), snap bean, or soybean. Rework the soil no deeper than 2 inch- es. DO NOT apply a second treatment of Raptor. DO NOT apply Pursuit ® herbicide, Pursuit® Plus EC herbicide or Raptor if edamame or soybeans are replanted. Weed Resistance Management Herbicide resistance could be suspected when the follow- ing three indicators occur at a site: • There is failure to control a weed species normally con- trolled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds. • There is a spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species. • The surviving plants are mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. Contact your local sales representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this MOA have been found in your region. Weed resistance to Group 2 herbicides is common in a number of weed species and in populations of naturally occurring biotypes 1 of some of the weeds listed on this label, which may not be effectively controlled by this and/ or other products with the ALS/AHAS enzyme-inhibiting mode of action. Naturally occurring biotypes 1 of some of the weeds listed on this label may not be effectively controlled by this and/ or other products with the ALS/AHAS enzyme-inhibiting mode of action. Other herbicides with the ALS/AHAS enzyme-inhibiting mode of action include the sulfonylureas (e.g. Finesse ® herbicide), imidazolinones (e.g. Beyond® herbicide), the triazolopyrimidine sulfoanilides (e.g.  FirstRate® herbicide), the sulfonylaminocarbonyl triazolinones, and the pyrimidyl benzoates (e.g. Staple® herbicide). If naturally occurring ALS/AHAS-resistant biotypes are present in a field, use the application rates of Raptor specified for your local conditions. Raptor and/or any other ALS/AHAS enzyme-inhibiting mode of action herbicide should be tank mixed or applied sequentially with an appropriate registered herbicide having a different mode of action to ensure that there are multiple effective mechanisms of actions for each target weed. 1 A weed biotype is a naturally occurring plant within a given species that has a slightly different, but distinct, genetic makeup from other plants. Raptor is very active against many broadleaf and grass weed species. For long-term weed management, use at least two herbicides with different modes of action to

5 reduce the potential for weed resistance. Crop (and herbicide) rotation is effective in managing weed resistance where herbicides of different modes of action are used. Tillage, where practical (such as in fallow production or before planting), is effective in controlling weeds to mini- mize resistance development. Additionally, a burndown herbicide during fallow or before planting is effective in reducing weed resistance development. Resistance management should be part of a diversified weed control strategy that integrates chemical, cultural and mechanical (tillage) control tactics. Cultural control tactics include crop rotation, proper fertilizer placement and optimum seeding rate/row spacing. Consult your local BASF representative, state cooperative extension service, professional consultants, or other qualified authority to determine appropriate actions if you suspect resistant weeds. Chemical Control • Start clean with tillage or an effective burn-down herbi- cide program. • DO NOT rely on a single herbicide mode of action for weed control. • Follow labeled application rate and weed growth stage specifications. • The use of preemergence herbicides that provide soil residual control of broadleaf and grass weeds is recom- mended to reduce early season weed competition and allow for timely in-crop postemergence herbicide applications. • Avoid application of herbicides with the same mode of action more than twice a season. • Use tank mixes and sequential applications with other herbicides possessing different modes of action (MOAs) that are also effective on the target weeds. Scouting and Containment • Scout fields after herbicide application to identify areas where weed control was ineffective. • Control weed escapes with herbicides possessing a dif- ferent mode of action or use a mechanical control measure. Weed escapes should not be allowed to repro- duce by seed or to proliferate vegetatively. • Scout fields before herbicide application to ensure herbi- cides and rates will be optimum for the weed species and weed sizes present. Consider application and envi- ronmental factors that may have led to incomplete control. • Contact your herbicide supplier and/or your local BASF representative to report weed escapes. • Clean equipment before moving to a different field to avoid spread of resistant weeds. Raptor ® herbicide has no preharvest interval (PHI) for any crop. Mixing Instructions Postemergence application of Raptor requires the addition of an adjuvant AND a nitrogen fertilizer solution unless otherwise directed in this label. Adjuvants When an adjuvant (or a specific adjuvant product, such as a drift control agent) is to be used with this product, the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) certified adjuvant is recommended. Crop Oil Concentrate (COC), Methylated Seed Oil (MSO), or High Surfactant Oil Concentrate (HSOC) Petroleum-based or vegetable seed-based crop oil concentrate may be used. Methylated seed oil is recom- mended when weeds are under moisture or temperature stress. Use MSO or COC at 1 to 2 gallons/100 gallons of spray solution [1% to 2% volume/volume (v/v)]. Use HSOC at 0.5 gallon/100 gallons of spray solution (0.5% v/v). OR Surfactant Use nonionic surfactant (NIS) containing at least 80% active ingredient. Apply NIS at 1 quart/100 gallons of spray solution (0.25% v/v). Organosilicone surfactant may be used in place of NIS. AND Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommended nitrogen-based fertilizers include liquid fer- tilizers [such as liquid ammonium sulfate (AMS), 28% N, 32% N, or 10-34-0] at 2.5 gallons/100 gallons of spray solution. Instead of liquid fertilizer, spray-grade ammonium sulfate may be used at 12 to 15 pounds/100 gallons of spray solution. When targeting feral rye or other weeds under moisture or temperature stress, using higher nitrogen fertilizer rates [urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) at 5% v/v or 20 lbs AMS/100 gallons] may improve weed control. Additional crop response may be observed when higher fertilizer rates are used. Nitrogen fertilizer is not required when applied in use areas south of Interstate Highway 40, except in the states of Arizona, California, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. Liquid Fertilizer as a Carrier DO NOT apply Raptor in liquid fertilizer as a carrier unless specifically allowed for a given crop. Refer to Crop- specific Information section for adjuvant recommendations and/or restrictions by crop. Additional Mixing Instructions for Dry Beans and Dry Peas [other than English Pea, Lima Bean (Suc- culent), Snap Bean, and Clearfield ® Lentil]. Raptor application may be made to dry beans and dry peas either with or without the addition of a fertilizer. The addition of nitrogen-based fertilizer, such as ammonium sulfate or liquid fertilizer (such as 28-0-0), may improve weed control but also increases the likelihood of dry beans

6 and dry peas response. When nitrogen is added to the mixture, add Basagran® herbicide (at 6 fl ozs to 16 fl ozs/A) to minimize crop response. For application to dry peas, ALWAYS add Basagran to the spray mixture. For enhanced grass activity, add crop oil or methylated seed oil instead of surfactant. ALWAYS add Basagran at the rates indicated above when crop oils and/or fertilizers are used in the spray mixture. Basagran application at rates higher than 16 fl ozs/A may reduce grass control. See application information within English Pea; Lima Bean (Succulent) ; and Snap Bean in Crop-specific Information section for additional mixing instructions. Tank Mix Instructions When applying Raptor® herbicide as the only herbicide:

  1. Fill spray tank 1/2 to 3/4 full with clean water.
  2. While agitating, add Raptor to the spray tank.
  3. Add adjuvants.
  4. Fill remainder of spray tank with water. If other herbicides or other spray tank components are tank mixed with Raptor, while agitating, add components in the following order and thoroughly mix after adding each component.
  5. Fill spray tank 1/2 to 3/4 full with clean water.
  6. Add soluble-packet products and thoroughly mix.
  7. Add WP (wettable powder), DG (dispersible granule), DF (dry flowable), or liquid flowable formulations not in soluble packets.
  8. Add Raptor and thoroughly mix.
  9. Add other aqueous solution products.
  10. Add EC (emulsifiable concentrate) products.
  11. Add surfactant or crop oil to the spray tank.
  12. Add nitrogen fertilizer solution.
  13. While agitating, fill the remainder of the tank with water. When Raptor is used in combination with another herbi- cide, refer to the respective label for rates, methods of application, proper timing, weeds controlled, restrictions, and precautions. Always use in accordance with the most restrictive label restrictions and precautions. DO NOT exceed label rates. Raptor cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibiting such mixtures. Cleaning Spray Equipment To avoid injury to sensitive crops, spray equipment used for Raptor application must be drained and thoroughly cleaned with water before being used to apply other products. Spraying Instructions DO NOT apply when wind conditions may result in drift, when temperature inversion conditions exist, or when spray may be carried to sensitive crops. Sensitive crops include, but are not limited to, leafy vegetables and sugar beet. Ground Application Uniformly apply with properly calibrated ground equipment in 10 or more gallons of water per acre. A spray pressure of 20 to 40 PSI is recommended. To ensure thorough coverage, use a minimum of 20 gal- lons of water per acre when applying Raptor to minimum-till or no-till crops. Use higher gallonage for fields with dense vegetation or heavy crop residue. Adjust the boom height to ensure proper coverage of weed foliage (according to the manufacturers instructions). Use flat-fan nozzle tips or similar appropriate nozzle tips to ensure thorough coverage. Avoid overlaps when spraying. Ground Application with a Low-volume Sprayer Raptor may be applied with a low-volume sprayer. When applying Raptor with a low-volume sprayer, spray weeds before they reach the maximum size listed in this label. Weed control depends on thorough spray coverage. The sprayer must be calibrated to deliver the recommended spray volume and pressure to ensure thorough spray cov- erage of weeds. When applying Raptor with a low-volume sprayer, apply a minimum of 10 gallons per acre of spray solution with a nozzle pressure between 40 to 60 PSI for optimum coverage. Aerial Application Raptor may be applied by air to all crops listed on this label. Uniformly apply with properly calibrated equipment in 5 or more gallons of water per acre. The addition of an adju- vant AND a nitrogen fertilizer solution are required for optimum weed control, unless otherwise direct- ed in this label. Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The pesticide must only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bod ies of water, known habi- tat for threatened or endangered species, or nontarget crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas). The interaction of many equipment-related and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed. The applicator must be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the spray drift advisory informa- tion that follows.

7 Mandatory Spray Drift Management Aerial Applications: • DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a great- er application height is necessary for pilot safety. • For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • For all other 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 mph at the application site. If the wind speed is greater than 10 mph, 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 apply during temperature inversions. Ground Boom Applications: • User must only apply with the release height recom- mended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or crop canopy unless making a turf, pasture, or rangeland application, in which case appli- cators may apply with a nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground. • For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • For all other 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 drop- lets. 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 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 mini- mal bounce. 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, and is lowest between wind speeds of 2 to 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type, determine drift potential at any given wind speed. Applica- tion must be avoided below 2 mph because of variable wind direction and high inversion potential. AVOID APPLI- CATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift. Application Information Apply Raptor® herbicide as a postemergence treatment when weeds are actively growing and before they exceed the maximum specified size (see Crop-specific Information section weeds controlled tables by crop). Delay application until the majority of weeds are at the specified growth stage. Apply Raptor when weeds are small and actively growing; however, delay application in seedling alfalfa, dry beans, and dry peas until minimum growth stages have occurred. Refer to the crop-specific

8 sections Alfalfa (see Seedling Alfalfa ) and Dry Beans and Dry Peas. An adjuvant (either surfactant OR crop oil concentrate) AND nitrogen fertilizer MUST be added to the spray solu- tion for optimum weed control. See Adjuvants section under Mixing Instructions for specific instructions. When Raptor® herbicide is applied postemergence, absorption will occur through both roots and foliage. Sus- ceptible weeds stop growing and either die or are not competitive with the crop. Raptor not only controls many existing broadleaf and grass weeds when applied poste- mergence, it also provides activity on susceptible weeds that may emerge shortly after application. Weeds are most easily controlled when actively growing. Under cold temperature conditions (less than 40° F maxi- mum daytime temperature), weed control may be less. For improved weed control, cultivate (where possible) 7 to 10 days after a postemergence Raptor application. This timely cultivation will enhance residual weed control activation, especially under dry conditions. Apply Raptor a minimum of 1 hour before rainfall or over- head irrigation. Crop-specific Information Alfalfa Apply Raptor early postemergence when weeds are actively growing and before they exceed a height of 3 inch- es, unless otherwise indicated. Delay application until the majority of the weeds are at the specified growth stage. Apply Raptor to actively growing crop and weeds. Use Rate Apply Raptor early postemergence at a broadcast rate of 4 to 6 fl ozs/acre (0.031 to 0.047 lb imazamox ae/acre) to seedling or established alfalfa grown for forage, hay, or seed. At the specified application rate, 1 gallon of Raptor will treat 21 to 32 acres. Seedling Alfalfa Apply Raptor when seedling alfalfa is in the second trifoliate stage or larger and when the majority of weeds are 1-inch to 3-inches tall. When applied to alfalfa grown for seed, apply Raptor before bud formation. For prostrate growing weeds (such as mustards and filaree), apply Raptor before the rosette exceeds 3 inches. When Raptor is applied to seed- ling alfalfa, there may be a temporary reduction in growth. Alfalfa soon outgrows any effects of the herbicide. Established Alfalfa Apply Raptor to established alfalfa in fall, winter, or spring to dormant or semidormant alfalfa, or between cuttings. Apply before significant alfalfa growth or regrowth (3 inch- es) to allow Raptor to reach target weeds. Alfalfa Restrictions and Limitations • DO NOT make more than one Raptor application to alfalfa per year (growing season). • DO NOT apply more than 6 fl ozs Raptor/acre (0.047 lb imazamox ae/acre) to alfalfa per year (growing season). • DO NOT make sequential applications of Pursuit® herbicide (imazethapyr) followed by Raptor (or Raptor followed by Pursuit) within a 60-day time frame because of increased potential for alfalfa crop response.

Application Timing Apply Raptor early postemergence in a tank mix, as described below, when clover has a minimum of 2 trifoliate leaves and when the majority of weeds are 1-inch to 3-inches tall. Raptor application must be made before clover bloom. Use Rate Apply Raptor early postemergence to clover grown for seed at a broadcast rate of 5 fl ozs/acre (0.04 lb imazamox ae/acre). Application of Raptor in clover grown for seed requires the addition of an adjuvant, nitrogen fertilizer, and Basagran ® herbicide. Adjuvants • Nonionic surfactant - Use NIS containing at least 80% active ingredient. Apply NIS at 0.25% v/v (1 quart/100 gallons of spray solution). OR • Crop oil concentrate - Use COC at 1 pint/acre (0.5 gallon/100 gallons of spray solution). OR • High surfactant oil concentrate - Use HSOC at 0.5% v/v (0.5 gallon/100 gallons of spray solution). Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommended nitrogen-based fertilizers include liquid fertilizers (such as 28% N, 32% N, or 10-34-0) at 2.5 gallons/100 gallons of spray solution. Instead of liquid fertilizer, spray-grade ammonium sulfate may be used at 12 to 15 pounds/100 gallons of spray solution. Basagran Add Basagran at 8 to 16 fl ozs/acre to minimize crop response. Basagran application at rates higher than 16 fl ozs/acre may reduce grass control. Basagran may only be applied to clover grown for seed. Apply Raptor plus Basagran tank mix a minimum of 4 hours before rainfall or overhead irrigation. Clover Grown for Seed Restrictions and Limitations • Raptor application must be made before clover bloom. • DO NOT make more than one Raptor application to clover grown for seed per year (growing season). • DO NOT apply more than 5 fl ozs Raptor/acre (0.04 lb imazamox ae/acre) to clover grown for seed per year (growing season). • If arid conditions occur during the year of application, rotational crop injury may occur.

14 • DO NOT apply to clover subjected to stress conditions, such as hail damage, flooding, drought, injury from other herbicides, or widely fluctuating temperatures, or crop injury may result. • DO NOT apply to weeds under stress, such as lack of moisture, previous herbicide injury, mechanical injury, or cold temperatures, or unsatisfactory weed control could result. • DO NOT apply more than a total of 4 pints of Basagran ® herbicide/acre per calendar year or 2.0 pounds of bentazon active ingredient (ai) from all sources per acre per calendar year.

DO NOT apply Raptor to chickpea (garbanzo bean) or lentil. Reduced crop growth, quality, and yield; temporary yel- lowing; and/or delayed maturity may result from Raptor application to dry bean and dry pea crops listed on this label. Because crop maturity may be delayed, timing of harvest may need to be adjusted accordingly. DO NOT apply Raptor if planting is delayed and chance of frost

16 before maturity is likely. Some varieties of dry beans and dry peas are more sensitive to Raptor® herbicide than other varieties. Growers should check with the seed com- pany regarding the safety of Raptor to their variety. USE Raptor ONLY if proper agronomic practices have been used, including good soil fertility, proper crop rota- tion, disease and insect management, and tillage practices that eliminate compaction and hardpans. Raptor is effective in controlling weeds in conservation tillage and conventional tillage production systems. Apply Raptor postemergence before bloom stage but after dry beans have at least 1 fully expanded trifoliate leaf and dry peas have at least 3 pairs of leaves. Delay application until the majority of weeds are at the specified growth stage. Base application timing on weed size and crop growth stage. Apply Raptor to actively growing crop and weeds. THIS PRODUCT WHEN USED ON DRY BEANS AND DRY PEAS MAY LEAD TO CROP INJURY, LOSS, OR DAMAGE. BASF RECOMMENDS THAT THE USER AND/OR GROWER TEST THIS PRODUCT TO DETER- MINE ITS SUITABILITY FOR SUCH INTENDED USE. Use Rate Apply Raptor postemergence to dry beans and dry peas at a broadcast rate of 4 fl ozs/acre (0.031 lb imazamox ae/acre). At this application rate, one gallon will treat 32 acres of dry beans and dry peas. Additional Mixing Instructions for Dry Beans and Dry Peas Raptor application may be made to dry beans and dry peas with or without addition of fertilizer. Addition of nitrogen-based fertilizer, such as ammonium sulfate or liquid fertilizers (such as 28-0-0), may improve weed con- trol but also increases the likelihood of dry bean response. When nitrogen and/or crop oil are added to the mixture, add Basagran ® herbicide (at 6 fl ozs to 16 fl ozs/A) as a tank mix partner to minimize crop response. For application to dry peas, ALWAYS add Basagran to the spray mixture, regardless of additives used. For enhanced grass activity, add crop oil concentrate instead of surfactant. Basagran at 16 fl ozs/A will enhance control of common lambsquarters and kochia. Basagran applica- tion at rates higher than 16 fl ozs/A may reduce grass weed control. Dry Beans and Dry Peas Restrictions and Limitations • Raptor application must be made before dry beans and dry peas bloom. • DO NOT make more than one Raptor application to dry beans and dry peas per year (growing season). • DO NOT apply more than 4 fl ozs Raptor/acre (0.031 lb imazamox ae/acre) to dry beans and dry peas per year (growing season).

19 THIS PRODUCT WHEN USED ON ENGLISH PEA MAY LEAD TO CROP INJURY, LOSS, OR DAMAGE. BASF RECOMMENDS THAT THE USER AND/OR GROWER TEST THIS PRODUCT TO DETERMINE ITS SUIT- ABILITY FOR SUCH INTENDED USE. Use Rate Early Postemergence Application. Apply Raptor® herbicide to English pea at the broadcast rate of 3 fl ozs/acre (0.023 lb imazamox ae/acre). Base application timing on weed size and crop growth stage. Apply Raptor to actively growing crop and weeds. Apply Raptor postemergence to English peas at least 3-inches tall but before 5 nodes before flowering. The use of trifluralin before Raptor application may increase the likelihood and severity of crop injury. Nonionic surfactant MUST be added to the spray solution. NIS MUST contain at least 80% active ingredient and be used at 1 quart/100 gallons of spray solution. Addition of nitrogen-based fertilizer, such as ammonium sulfate, or liquid fertilizers (such as 28-0-0) may improve weed control but also increases the likelihood of English pea response. When nitrogen-based fertilizer is added to the mixture, add Basagran ® herbicide as a tank mix partner at 6 fl ozs to 16 fl ozs/acre to minimize crop response. Recommended nitrogen-based fertilizers include liquid fertilizers (such as 28% N, 32% N, or 10-34-0) at 2.5 gallons/100 gallons of spray solution. Instead of liquid fertilizer, spray-grade ammonium sulfate may be used at 12 to 15 pounds/100 gallons of spray solution. For enhanced grass activity, add COC at 1 gallon/100 gal- lons instead of NIS. ALWAYS add Basagran at the rates indicated above when COC and/or nitrogen-based fertilizer are used in the spray mixture. Basagran application at rates higher than 16 fl ozs/acre may reduce grass control. Apply Raptor a minimum of 1 hour before rainfall or over- head irrigation. For use in Delaware, Maryland, and New York: Raptor MUST be applied with Basagran at 6 to 16 fl ozs/A to minimize crop response. Nonionic surfactant MUST be added to the spray solution.

Raptor may be applied to snap bean. Occasionally, inter- node shortening and/or temporary yellowing of snap beans may occur following Raptor application. These effects can be more pronounced if snap beans are grow- ing under stressful environmental or hot and humid conditions. These effects occur infrequently and are tem- porary. Normal growth and appearance should resume within days. Apply Raptor ONLY if proper agronomic practices have been used, including good soil fertility, proper crop rota- tion, disease and insect management and tillage practices that eliminate compaction and hardpans. DO NOT apply to snap beans that have been injured from application of soil-applied herbicides. Apply Raptor postemergence to snap bean with at least one fully expanded trifoliate leaf and before the bloom stage. For use in Idaho, Oregon and Washington , apply Raptor to snap bean at first or second trifoliate leaf stage. Delay application until the majority of the weeds are at the specified growth stage. Base application timing on weed size and crop growth stage. Apply Raptor to active- ly growing crop and weeds. DO NOT apply Raptor to snap bean during flowering. THIS PRODUCT WHEN USED ON SNAP BEAN MAY LEAD TO CROP INJURY, LOSS, OR DAMAGE. BASF RECOMMENDS THAT THE USER AND/OR GROWER TEST THIS PRODUCT TO DETERMINE ITS SUIT- ABILITY FOR SUCH INTENDED USE.

22 Use Rate Apply Raptor® herbicide to snap bean at the broadcast rate of 4 fl ozs/acre (0.031 lb imazamox ae/acre) tank mixed with Basagran® herbicide at 6 fl ozs to 16 fl ozs/acre. When used in snap beans, Raptor must be applied with Basagran to minimize crop response. Basagran application at rates higher than 16 fl ozs/acre may reduce grass control.

Raptor is effective in controlling weeds in conservation tillage and conventional tillage production systems. Raptor can be applied early postemergence in soybeans but before the bloom stage. Refer to the specific treatment under the Application Information section of the label. Unusually cool temperatures (50° F or less) reduce photo- synthesis and transpiration and, thus, reduce uptake, translocation, and efficacy of Raptor in weeds. Delaying a Raptor application for 48 hours from the time the tem- perature increases to above 50° F, if air temperature has been below 50° F for 10 or more hours, will improve weed control and reduce crop response. No-till/Minimum Tillage and Double-crop Soybeans. Raptor controls existing weeds and provides residual activity on some weeds when applied early

24 postemergence to soybeans in no-till or minimum tillage and double-crop soybean production systems. The appli- cation must be applied after emergence of the crop. Refer to Weeds Controlled (Soybean) tables for weeds con- trolled and specified weed size. To ensure thorough coverage, use a minimum of 20 gal- lons of water/acre in no-till or minimum tillage systems. Use higher gallonage for fields with dense vegetation or heavy crop residue. Before planting or emergence of soybeans, any glyphosate- containing product registered for that use may be applied to control emerged weeds. See specific product label for rates, use directions, precautions, and restrictions. Use Rate Apply 4 fl ozs Raptor® herbicide/acre (0.031 lb imazamox ae/acre) to soybean when preceded by a full rate of a registered soil-applied grass herbicide like Prowl® 3.3 EC herbicide or Prowl® H2O herbicide. OR Apply 5 fl ozs Raptor/acre (0.040 lb imazamox ae/acre) to soybean in a total postemergence herbicide program. Raptor may be applied postemergence at a broadcast rate of 4 fl ozs/acre when it is preceded with a full labeled rate of a soil-applied grass herbicide such as Prowl 3.3 EC or Prowl H2O. At this rate, 1 gallon of Raptor will treat 32 acres of soybeans. Raptor may be applied postemergence at a broadcast rate of 5 fl ozs/acre (including minimum-till and no-till). At this broadcast rate, one gallon of Raptor will treat 25.6 acres of soybeans. Soybean Restrictions and Limitations • Raptor application must be made before soybean bloom. • DO NOT make more than one Raptor application to soybean per year (growing season). • DO NOT apply more than 5 fl ozs Raptor/acre (0.04 lb imazamox ae/acre) to soybean per year (growing season). • If soybeans are furrow irrigated, till the soil before plant- ing winter wheat or barley. Break up the beds and mix soil with tillage equipment set to cut 4-inches to 6-inches deep.

  • Soil-applied grass herbicide, such as Prowl 3.3 EC or Prowl H2O, is followed by a postemergence application of Raptor at a broadcast rate of 4 fl ozs/acre. Tank Mix Herbicides Grass Weeds Use a soil-applied grass herbicide (such as Prowl 3.3 EC or Prowl H2O) if heavy infestations of some grass weeds exist or if Raptor does not control the species present. Refer to the Prowl 3.3 EC, Prowl H2O, or other grass herbicide label for specific use directions, rates, and precautions. Glyphosate may be tank mixed with Raptor to aid in con- trol of certain grass weeds only in Roundup Ready ® soybeans. DO NOT tank mix Raptor with Extreme ® herbicide. If a selective postemergence grass herbicide, such as Poast® herbicide, is mixed with Raptor to con- trol species that are not controlled with Raptor alone, include MSO or COC (1 to 2 gallons/100 gallons) or an HSOC at 0.5 gallon/100 gallons AND add liquid fertilizer (2.5 gallons/100 gallons) to the tank mixture.

27 In some cases, the activity of the grass herbicide may be reduced when mixed with Raptor® herbicide. The reduc- tion in activity may be overcome by delaying application of the postemergence grass herbicide 7 days following appli- cation of Raptor. If the postemergence grass herbicide is applied first, wait 3 days before applying Raptor. Refer to the respective grass herbicide label for specific application rate, weed size, and restrictions. Broadleaf Weeds Glyphosate may be tank mixed with Raptor to aid in con- trol of certain broadleaf weeds only in Roundup Ready ® soybeans. Tank mixing Raptor and certain broadleaf herbicides (e.g. diphenylethers and Basagran® herbicide) can reduce grass control; therefore, a sequential program including a soil-applied grass herbicide, such as Prowl ® 3.3 EC herbicide or Prowl® H2O herbicide, is recommended for optimal control. Enhanced Control of Kochia, Palmer Amaranth, Ragweed Species, and Waterhemp. Use a soil applica- tion of Prowl 3.3 EC or Prowl H2O followed by a postemergence application of Raptor at a broadcast rate of 4 fl ozs to 5 fl ozs/acre plus a diphenylether, such as Ultra Blazer ® herbicide (acifluorfen), or glyphosate for enhanced control of kochia, Palmer amaranth, ragweed, and waterhemp. Refer to the Prowl 3.3 EC, Prowl H2O, or Ultra Blazer labels for specific use directions, rates, restrictions, and precautions. When tank mixing Raptor and Ultra Blazer, apply Raptor at a broadcast rate of 5 fl ozs/acre or 4 fl ozs/acre when preceded by a full rate of a registered soil-applied grass herbicide.

If the soil pH is less than 6.2, the rotational interval is 26 months. Sugar beet yields can be reduced when grown in soil conditi ons with a pH less than 6.2. If the soil is limed to adjust the soil pH, apply the lime at least 18 months before planting sugar beet or other rotation al crops under the 18-month rotational interval. 3 For sugar beets grown in parts of Nebraska west of Highway 83, and Platte, Goshen, and Laramie counties in Wyoming, follow the sugar beet rota- tional crop restrictions for Region 2 for sprinkler-irrigated fields only. If fields are dryland, flood or furrow irrigated, follow restrictions for Region 1. A minimum of 10 inches of overhead irrigation must be applied each season to qualify for Region 2 guidelines. 4 Planting non- Clearfield spring or winter wheat in areas receiving less than 10 inches of precipitation from the time of Raptor application up until wheat planting may result in wheat injury. The possibility of injury increases if less than normal precipitation occurs from th e time of application to planting and/or within the first 2 months after Raptor application. 5 In Region 1 and Region 2, non-Clearfield lentil may be planted 9 months following an application of Raptor if no more than 5 fl ozs/A of Raptor has been applied and the soil pH is uniformly greater than 6.2.

R+I = Rainfall and overhead irrigation from the time of Raptor® herbicide application up until time of barley, potato, or non-Clearfield wheat planting. Does not include furrow or flood irrigation. If the rainfall or pH requirements are not fully met, and barley or non- Clearfield wheat is planted before the specified rotation interval, injury may be reduced by tillage, such as deep disking (greater than 6-inches deep) after crop harvest but before November 1. The possibility of injury to barley or non- Clearfield wheat planted the next season increases if less than normal pre- cipitation occurs from the time of application to planting and/or within the first two months after Raptor application . Furrow-irrigated and Flood-irrigated Crops Following harvest of furrow-irrigated or flood-irrigated crops, thoroughly mix soil by plowing or deep disking to minimize the potential for herbicide carryover to the following crop. Use of Raptor in accordance with label directions is expected to result in normal growth of rotational crops in most situ- ations; however, various environmental and agronomic factors, such as arid conditions, make it impossible to eliminate all risks associated with the use of this product and, therefore, rotational crop injury is always possible. USE PRECAUTIONS In the event of a crop loss due to weather, dry beans, dry peas, Clearfield canola, Clearfield corn, Clearfield lentil, Clearfield and Clearfield ® Plus sunflower, Clearfield and Clearfield Plus wheat, edamame, peas (English), lima beans (succulent), snap beans, or soybeans can be replanted. DO NOT make an additional application of Raptor. Application of products containing chlorimuron ethyl ( Canopy® herbicide), metsulfuron-methyl (Harmony® Extra herbicide), imazaquin (Scepter® 70 DG herbicide), or imazethapyr (Pursuit® herbicide, Pursuit® Plus EC herbicide) the same year as Raptor may increase the risk of injury to sensitive rotational crops. Consult all pertinent labels for use of these products in combinations. If arid conditions occur during the year of application, rotational crop injury may occur.
