A contact herbicide (such 8S paraquat or Roundup) should be used to control emerged annual weeds and grasses and for top kill and suppression of perennials. It is important that the MOD OWN spray mixture reaches the soil surface 10 create a chemical zone. To assure complete coverage, use the higher recommended spray volumes as the density of cover crop residue or weeds increases. See paraquat or Roundup labels for specific directions and precautions for use. Note: Do not apply MODOWN as e "cracking" or "spiking·· treatment. If rain does not occur within 7 days following application, a shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing is recommended. Cultivation will help control weeds which escape herbicide treatment. Rainfall which splashes MOOOWN treated soil onto the crop at time of emergence may result in crop injury. Leaves of plants may crinkle and discolor but injury is usually temporary. MOOOWN is not root absorbed. With good growing conditions. plants will recover quickly an': yields should not be affected. As plants \Jrow taller. their foliage is no longer subject to this type of injury. This temporary injury is less likely to occur on soybeans where MODOWN is surface mixed.

( 6 RICE Gener.' InformaHon: MODOWN is a selective herbicide recommended as a preemergent. postemergent or postflood treatment. MODOWN can be applied either by air or ground equipment for postemergent or postflood treatment of rice. MOOOWN can be used either alone or in conjunction with propanilas specified in the following directions. Water management is a key to successful use of MODOWN. Maintaining soil moisture is important. Proper application is necessary to obtain good coverage and uniform distribution. For best results when MODOWN is applied as a preemergent surface treatment. there should be 8 good. well prepared seed bed. Large soil clods should be thoroughly broken up before application. When applied preemergent. MODOWN forms 8 chemical zone on the surface of the soil controlling weeds as their shoots come in contact with the herbicide while growing through the chemical zone. When applied postemergent MODOWN controls susceptible weeds by contact action and provides a 4 to 6 week residual. This may allow delay of flooding. When applied postflood. MODOWN controls susceptible weeds above the water level by contact action. The rate of MODOWN used per acre should be based on weed density. USE THE HIGHER RECOMMENDED RATE OF MODOWN WHEN INFESTATIONS OF THE WEEDS LISTED ON THIS LABEL ARE MODERATE TO HEAVY.
