ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 
This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Drift or runoff may adver~ely 
affect aquatic invertebrates and nontarget plants. Do not apply directly to water. or to 
areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high 'Naler 
~ mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsote. 
GROUNDWATER CONTAMINATION 
Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-0 
and MCPA have been associated with mixinglloading and disposal sites. Cautien 3hc,uld 
be exercised when handling 2,4-0 and MCPA pesticides at sueh sites to prevent 
contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or tran&fcrling 
this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading 
equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater 
contamination. 
CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT 
When cleaning equipment, do not pour the wash water on the ground; spray or drain over 
a large area away from wells and other water sources.

GENERAL INFORMATION 
Tiller EC Herbicide is a postemergence herbicide for the control of green and yellow 
foxtail (pigeongrass), volunteer and wild millet species, barnyardgrass, wild oats and 
certain broadleaf weeds in hard red spring wheat, winter wheat, and some soft white 
spring wheat varieties (Wakanz, Waverly, Sprite, Owens, Twin, and Centennial), and 
spring barley. Do not apply to durum. Application to wheat and barley that is not 
tiIIered may result in malformed spikes (heads). 
For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for 
pesticide regulation. 
APPLICATION INFORMATION 
5 
Ground Application: 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 insure 
consistent weed control, apply Tiller EC Herbicide with the spray boom as low as possible 
while maintaining a uniform spray pattern. Apply a minimum of 10 gallons of spray 
solution per acre, using a spray pressure of at least 40 psi with fiat-fan nozzle tips 
spaced 10 to 20 inches apart across the boom. Ground speed for application should not 
exceed 10 mph. DO NOT apply with hollow cone type insecticide nozzles or other 
nozzles that produce a fine droplet spray. Under dense weed populations or adverse 
growing conditions, high spray volume (15 to 20 gpa) and higher Tiller EC 
Herbicide use rates are required for best weed control. 
" Aerial Application: For the control of green and yellow foxtail species and wild oats. 
Calibrate the spray equipment prior to use. Tiller EC Herbicide should be applied in a 
minimum of 5 gallons of water per broadcast acre. To get uniform spray coverage, use 
nozzles to provide 200- to 350-micron size droplets. DO NOT use raindrop nozzles. 
Aerial applications with this product should be made at a maximum height of 10 feet 
above the crop with low drift nozzles at a maximum pressure of 40 psi. 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. 
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN TO AVOID SPRAY DRIFT 
• Do not allow spray from aerial equipment to drift onto adjacent land or crops. When 
drift may be a problem, do everything possible to reduce spray drift, including the 
following: 
• Do not spray if wind speeds are or become excessive. If sensitive crops or plants are 
downwind, extreme caution must be used under all conditions. Do not spray if winds 
are qustv.

------_ ..... __ . ----
• Use extreme caution when conditions are favorable for drift (high temperatures, 
drought, low relative humidity), especially when sensitive crops are located nearby. 
• Drift from aerial applications of the herbicide is likely to result in damage to sensitive 
plants adjacent to the treatment site. This damage can occur at levels below the 
concentrations which can be detected with chemical analysis. 
• Do not apply when a temperature inversion exists. If inversion conditions are 
suspected, consult with local weather services before making an application. 
• Use the lowest number of nozzles practical with the largest possible orifice size within 
the specified range to obtain the minimum 5 gallon per acre spray volume. 
Application height and boom length should be set according to manufacturer's 
instructions to minimize drift. 
• Reduce the volume of spray mixture by using higher flow rate nozzles. Using lower 
pressure with the appropriate nozzle to obtain higher volumes will also reduce spray 
drift. 
• Apply as close to target plants as practical while maintaining a good spray pattem for 
adequate coverage. 
INFORMATION ON HERBICIDE TOLERANT WEEDS 
Repeated use of the same herbicide, or herbicide with the same mode of action, may 
result in tolerant weeds that will multiply to economic infestations if such herbicides are 
used year after year on the same fields. If such weed infestations appear, herbicides of a 
different mode of action should be considered or the field should be planted to a different 
crop that involves the use of a herbicide with a different mode of action. For further 
information. contact an AgrEvo USA Company representative or your State Weed 
Science Specialist. 
TIMING OF APPLICATION 
6 
The time of application is determined by the growth stage of the wheat and barley. Apply 
Tiller EC Herbicide when spring wheat or spring barley begins to tiller (3-4 leaf stage) 
up to the 6-leaf stage. Winter wheat should have a minimum of three tillers before 
application. DO NOT SPRAY SPRING OR WINTER WHEAT OR SPRING BARLEY 
AFTER JOINTING BEGINS. 
Tiller EC Herbicide will control susceptible grassy weeds in the 2-leaf to 2-tiller stage of 
growth. Blackgrass can be controlled over a wide range of growth stages, from the 2-leaf 
through the advanced tillering stage. Windgrass will be controlled from emergence to a 
height of 3 inches. Annual broadleaf weeds must not exceed 4 inches in height. 
Applications should be made to young, vigorously growing weeds. 
Tiller EC Herbicide has no effect via the soil and will only control emerged grassy and 
broad leaf weeds.

Tiller EC Herbicide, when applied as recommended, controls the following annual grassy 
and broad leaf weeds:

MOISTURE EFFECTS ON ANNUAL GRASSY WEED CONTROL 
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 generally lower than 85° F for several days prior to application. 
Low soil moisture levels, low humidity, and high temperatures will all interact to reduce the 
wild oat control by Tiller EC Herbicide. 
Foxtail (pigeongrass) can be well controlled over a wide range of soil moisture conditions. 
Foxtail under drought stress exhibits rolled leaves ("onion leaf') and should not be 
sprayed as poor control may result. Apply Tiller EC Herbicide when conditions improve. 
TANK MIX COMBINATIONS 
When tank mixing, read and follow the label for each tank mix product used for 
precautionary statements, directions for use, weeds controlled, geographic and other 
restrictions. Use io accordance with the most restrictive of label limitations and 
precautions. No label dosage should be exceeded. This product cannot be mixed with 
any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing. 
Insecticides 
Tiller EC Herbicide may be tank mixed with either Warrior'" , Furadan@4F, or Sevin@ XLR 
PLUS insecticides if timing for insect and weed control are proper. Do not tank mix with 
malathion as wild oat control will be reduced. 
Fungicides 
Mancozeb, Tilt®, Topsin®, Mertect®, or Benlate® fungicides can be tank mixed with Tiller 
EC Herbicide when application timing is correct for both products. 
Broadleaf Herbicides 
Additional broadleaf weed control can be achieved by tank mixing Tiller EC Herbicide with 
one of the following herbicides if application timing is correct for both products. The 
addition of Buctril® 2EC Herbicide (or equivalent generic bromoxynil products) to 
Tiller EC Herbicide may cause temporary yellowing and/or a reduction in wheat or 
barley height and a reduction in wild oat control.

TANK MIXES FOR GREEN FOXTAIL, FOXTAIL MILLETS, 
AND VOLUNTEER CORN CONTROL 
The following tank mixes are approved for the control of green foxtail, foxtail 
millets and volunteer corn only. If wild oat or yellow foxtail is the primary weed,
