GENERAL INFORMATION
PUMA® Ultra Herbicide is a postemergence herbicide for the control of green and yellow foxtail (pigeongrass), volunteer and wild millet
species, barnyardgrass and wild oat in wheat (including durum wheat) and barley.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Do not use this product until you have read the entire label. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons,
either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.
For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170. This Standard contains
requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural
pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific
instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE), and restricted-entry
interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of 24 hours.
For early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has
been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, wear: coveralls over long-sleeved shirt and long pants; socks and chemical resistant
footwear. Wear goggles or face shield, and chemical resistant gloves (such as nitrile, butyl, neoprene, and/or barrier laminate).
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Application Information
DO NOT apply when winds are gusty, or when conditions will favor movement of spray particles off the desired spray target. To avoid
drift and ensure consistent weed control, apply PUMA Ultra Herbicide with the spray boom as low as possible while maintaining a
uniform spray pattern. t ' c c c- c c c
Application Methods to c c c o
Ground Application: Ten (10) gallons of spray solution per acre is recommended. Under conditions wtee.rc ilarge grass weeds or
dense weed populations are present or adverse environmental conditions exist, a greater spray volume'pf 1fe -l;20 gallons of spray
solution per acre is required for best weed control. A minimum of 5 gallons of spray solution may only be us^ed under conditions that are
ideal for weed control and wild oat populations are low. Use a recommended spray pressure of 40 psi with flafr-faeicrvpzzle ti|j&" sp'a'oGd 10
to 20 inches apart across the boom. A ground speed of 10 mph or less is suggested. To get uniform spray coverage, use nozzles to
provide 200 to 350 micron size droplets. DO NOT apply with hollow cone type nozzles or other nozzles thatcproduce s Vine dfiplet
spray. • c c c c c c c c c
Aerial Application: Calibrate the spray equipment prior to use. PUMA Ultra Herbicide should be applied in ^minirnum of 5 gallons of
water per broadcast acre. To get uniform spray coverage, use nozzles to provide 200 to 350 micron size droplets. DO tNj5T use
raindrop nozzles. Aerial applications with this product should be made at a maximum height of 10 feet above the crop with low drift
r c
nozzles at a pressure of 40 psi or a pressure recommended by the manufacturer of the nozzles used. Avoid application under
conditions where uniform coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur.
Flagmen and loaders should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.
Application Timing
Wheat
Apply PUMA Ultra Herbicide to the crop from emergence up to 60 days prior to harvesting wheat in the states of Minnesota, Montana,
North Dakota, and South Dakota. Apply PUMA Ultra Herbicide on wheat within 70 days of harvest in other states.
Barley
Apply PUMA Ultra Herbicide to the crop from emergence up to the 5-leaf stage. Do not spray barley after jointing begins. Apply PUMA
Ultra Herbicide up to 57 days of harvesting barley.
To avoid potential cereal grain injury, PUMA Ultra Herbicide should not be applied 2 days prior to or after freezing temperatures. Avoid
applications for 2 days following abrasive winds or hail.
Weed Application Timing
PUMA Ultra Herbicide has no effect via the soil and will only control emerged grass weeds. Herbicide performance can be negatively
impacted by environmental conditions, weed populations and tank mix partners. Applications should be made to young, vigorously
growing weeds.
PUMA Ultra Herbicide will control susceptible grass weeds in the 1-leaf (fully expanded) to 2-tiller stage of growth. Blackgrass can be
controlled over a wide range of growth stages, from the 1-leaf (fully expanded) through the advanced tillering stage. Windgrass will be
controlled from emergence to a height of 3 inches.
The following conditions will result in optimum wild oat control:
1. Adequate soil moisture which occurs under normal rainfall in wheat or barley following a fallow year.
2. Temperatures lower than 85° F for several days prior to application.
Low soil moisture levels, low humidity, and high temperatures prior, during or following application may reduce wild oat and foxtail
control provided by PUMA Ultra Herbicide.
Foxtail under drought stress will exhibit rolled leaves ("onion leaf) and should not be sprayed as poor control may result. Apply PUMA
Ultra Herbicide when conditions improve.
PUMA Ultra Herbicide, when applied as recommended, controls the annual grass weeds listed in Table 1 below at rates indicated.

INFORMATION ON HERBICIDE TOLERANT WEEDS
Repeated use of the same herbicide or related herbicides may result in rare, naturally tolerant weeds multiplying to economic
infestations. In areas with consistent use of the same herbicide or herbicide mode-of-action, crop rotation and application of alternative
mode of action herbicides are encouraged to prevent and/or reduce weed tolerance. For further information, contact a Bayer
CropScience representative or your local or state extension service.
TANK MIX COMBINATIONS
When tank mixing, read and follow the precautionary statements, directions for use, weeds controlled, geographic, and other restrictions
on the labeling of each tank mix partner used. Use in accordance with the most restrictive label limitations and precautions. Tank mix
partners not recommended on this label may cause reduced annual grass control (antagonism) or crop injury. It is recommended not to
apply any pesticide, not listed on this label, 5 days before or after an application of PUMA Ultra Herbicide. Bayer CropScience
recommends that PUMA Ultra Herbicide should not be tank mixed with liquid fertilizers unless specifically recommended on this label.
Compatibility Testing with Tank Mix Partners
If PUMA Ultra Herbicide is to be tank mixed with other pesticides, compatibility should 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 the label of each tank-mix product used for precautionary statements, directions for
use, geographic and other restrictions.
Insecticides
PUMA Ultra Herbicide may be tank mixed with either Furadan® 4F, Mustang Max, Sevin® XLR PLUS, or Warrior® insecticides if timing
for insect and weed control are proper. Do not tank mix with malathion as wild oat control will be reduced.
Fungicides
Fungicides such as mancozeb (Dithane F-45®; Manzate® 75DF; Penncozeb® 75DF), Headline, Tilt® and Stratego®, or Topsin® M can
be tank mixed with PUMA Ultra Herbicide when timing for application of each tank mix partner is the same for the use site.
It is not recommended to use additives when PUMA is tankmixed with fungicides or when PUMA is tankmixed with broadleaf herbicides
plus fungicides as crop injury may result.
Broadleaf Herbicides
Broadleaf weed control options are listed in Tables 2, 3, or 4, when timing of application for each tank mix partner is the same for the
use site. Always check the tank mix partner label to determine if the addition of a surfactant is required.
Tank Mixes for Green Foxtail, Foxtail Millets and Volunteer Corn Control
The tank mix partners listed in Table 2 may be used for the control of green foxtail, foxtail millets, and volunteer corn with PUMA Ultra
Herbicide at a rate of 7 oz (0.44 pt) /A. If wild oat or yellow foxtail is the primary weed, see sections addressing tank mixes for these
weeds.
