( ( 4 Consult your local Agricultural Extension Agent for help in determining soil texture, organic matter content, and the most appropriate herbicide rate for local conditions. Where surfactants or emulsifiable vegetable oils are added to BLADEX SOW for over the top of corn postemergence applications, use on field corn only. As a preemergence herbicide, BLADEX SOW is active mainly through the roots, and therefore, its effect on weeds is dependent on adequate rainfall or sprinkler irrigation to move the herbicide into the root lone. Moisture should be sufficient to wet the top 1-1/2 to 2 inches of soil or make the soil too wet to cultivate; for most soils 1/2-3/4" of moisture is sufficient. A rotary hoeing or shallow cultivation is recommended if a rainfall or sprinkler irri­ gation has not occurred within about ten days after application of BLADEX SOW. Under conditions which delay weed germination, such as low temperatures, lack of soil surface moisture, or when germination extends over a long period, the effectiveness of the herbicide may be impaired. Rotary hoeing, a shallow cultivation or a postemergence herb'.t.ide treatment may be of benefit under these circumstances. When applied 1S a post-emergence herbicide, BLADEX SOW is also active through foliage as well as through the roots. OBSERVE ALL CAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS ON LABELING OF ALL PRODUCTS USED IN MIXTURES. APPLICATION DIRECTIONS GENERAL MIXING AND SPRAYING DIRECTIONS If another pesticide has been used previously, be sure the sprayer tank, boom, and nozzles have been thoroughly flushed with clean water. Sufficient jet or mechanical agitation should be provided during the filling operation and during application to keep the spray mixture uniformly suspended. Fill the spray tank at least one-half full of clean water and while pump and agitator are running, add the recommended amount of BLADEX SOW to the tank, then fill with water to the desired level. For tank mixes, once the BLADEX SOW is completely suspended in the water, add the recommended amount of other products to the tank while filling with water to the desired level. Add all wettable powders before liquids. For emulsible concentrates (EC), such as Lasso~ or Dual~, pre-mixing these products in equal amounts of water or prfng the products directly into the water stream as the tank is filling will aid'in achieving compatible tank-mixtures. Fluid fertilizers may replace all or, pat of the water as carrier. Always check the compatibility of BLADEX SOW o~, ',: BLADEX SOW tank mixes and fluid fertilizer, according to the Jar Test fo~", Compatability instructions below, before the herbicide and fertilizer arroixed in the spray tank. (BLADEX SOW can also be premixed as a slurry before adding to the tank.) , , , ' , " , For use with a surfactant or vegetable oil, completely suspend the BLAD( 80~ in water and fill the tank before adding the surfactant or vegetable oil," , CES517703 • ••••• • •• • • • ••••• • • .. , .... · . • •• I • • I I • I I • • .. t I I , •• , . ~, "

( ( . ~ . .,. , 5 Allow the pump to run several minutes before application to ensure proper suspension and mixing of BLADEX SOW or other various mixtures. If BLADEX SOW or tank-mix combinations of BLADEX SOW with atrazine are allowed to stand in a spray tank or nurse tank for an extended period (several hours or overnight), provide good agitation for several minutes before application to ensure proper suspension and mixing. Tank-mix combinations of BLADEX SOW with other products should be continuously agitated and should be mixed and applied as soon as possible. Apply with flat fan (even flat fan for band application) or flood nozzles in conjunction with 50 mesh nozzle screens and in-line screens. Carefully follow the nozzle manufacturer's recommendation for correct nozzle height, positioning and spacing. Check for uniform distribution of spray droplets. Apply at pressures of 15-35 psi to reduce chemical loss de to fine mist drift. Apply the spray mixture to the soil surface using at least 15 gals./A. for ground application. Apply by air using a minimum of 4 gals./A. of spray mixture. Check nozzles, pressure, and output regularly to ensure proper calibration and application. ALL RATES INDICATED ON THIS LABEL ARE BROADCAST APPLICATION RATES PER ACRE UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED. FOR BANO APPLICATION, USE PROPORTIONATELY LESS. JAR TEST FOR COMPATIBILITY A. Add one pint of liquid fertilizer or other carrier to be used to two quart jars. Mark one quart jar "with" and the other jar "without." B. To the jar marked "with" add 1/4 teaspoon of a suitable compatibility agent. Shake gently for 5 to 10 seconds to mix. (1/4 teaspoon/pint = 2 pints/100 gallons.) C. D. To each jar add the appropriate amount of herbicides corresponding to the herbicide rate and spray volume selected (see following table). If more than one herbicide is used, add them separately; wettable powders first, flowables second, and emulsible concentrates last. Shake gently for 5 to 10 seconds after each addition. ., ( , , .

(6 1b./ga1.) or 2 - 3 pts./A. (4 1bs./ga1.) plus X-77 sufactant at 1 qt./I00 gals. of diluted spray, or tother suitable surfactant at its recommended rate. If existing weeds exceed 3 inches in height, add 1 - 2 pts./A. of paraquat to the above mixture. Well established weeds over 6 inches tall may not be well controlled. Use at least 25 ga1s./A. of spray mixture by ground rig or 5 - 10 ga1s./A. for aerial application. Depending upon weather conditions following the EPP application, a post­ emergence BLADEX treatment, or some other herbicide treatment may be necessary at or after planting to provide additional length of weed control. If desired, 1~ - 2 pts./A. of Dual or 2 qts./A. of Lasso may be tank-mixed with the BLADEX EPP treatmer.t or applied preemergence at planting. Rotational Crops: Refer to Rotational Crops section for each treatment in the Preemergence section of the label. At Planting BLADEX SOW applied alone or in combination with atrazine and/or Lasso or Dual according to the following directions will kill most existing small weeds and suppress many emerged perennial weeds when corn is planted into no-till sta1~ ground (corn, sorghum), stubble ground (soybean, small grains), and any····.: minimum-till situation.

Use rates shown in Table 5 if BLADEX has not been applied to the soil this season. Use rates shown in Table 5A if BLADEX has been applied to the soil this season. This treatment may be used on peat or muck soils for burndown and suppression of existing weeds but will not provide residual control. Apply from crop emergence through the four-leaf stage of corn growth but before weeds exceed about 1-1/2" in height. Do not apply over the top of corn if the fifth leaf is visible. Apply in water only. Do not spray emerged corn plants in a liquid fe'rtilizer carrier. Under dry, arid conditions of low humidity and the absence of dew formation at night, add a surfactant such as X-77, or an emulsible vegetable (EV) oil suitable for use on growing corn at its recommended rate. Do not use petroleum-based crop oils. Addition of a surfactant or EV oil is not recommended under moist, rainy conditions and when dew forms at night as injury may occur.

Apply after wheat harvest but 45-60 days prior to planting winter wheat. Use at the proper rate for soil texture and organic matter indicated in Table 14. Add X-77 at 1-2 qts./l00 gals. of diluted spray. Use higher rate of surfactant when dry weather conditions prevail. Failure to wait the recommended time interval between application and planting may result in crop injury. Use of this treatment on calcareous or caliche subsoil outcroppings may result in crop injury. For best results during harvest, use a straw chopper/spreader on the combine that distributes the straw uniformly over the soil surface unless the straw is to be baled and removed prior to treatment. Avoid tillage after application as it may reduce the effectiveness of the herbicide treatment.

) ,fl. t- ( ( 37 NOTE: If conditions cause weeds to begin to germinate in the spring or ummer following a post-harvest fall treatment of BLADEX or BLADEX plus atrzine, an application of BlOEX BOW may be made for additional weed control in the spring or summer prior to planting winter wheat. pply as directed in "BlDEX BOW Applied lone" in this section of the label or in the WHEAT section of this label. 00 not make more than two applications of BLADEX BOW prior to planting. BLADEX Combinations With Paraquat On fallow crop land having an existing or established weed population, Paraquat CL may be tank mixed at 1-2 pts/A. with either BLADEX BOW or BLADEX BOW/atrazine tank-mix combination as previously described in this section. Apply.the recommended rates in at least 25 gallons of spray mixture per acre by ground rig or 5-10 gals/A. for aerial application. Use higher volumes and the high rates of paraquat when weed growth is heavy or when dry weather conditions prevail. Add X-77 surfactant at 1 qt/100 gals of diluted spray. BLADEX Combinations With 2,4-0 Low Volatile Este 2,4-0 LV Ester may be added to any treatment in this section to help control broadleaf weeds growing at the time of application. Use 1-1/3 to 2 pts/A. of 2,4-0 LV 6 lb. Ester (2-3 pts/A. of 2,4-0 LV 4 lb. Ester). Use the high rat when weeds are over 4" tall or when directed on the 2,4-0 label for the control of hard-to-kill weed species, such as perennials. When 2,4-0 LV is used, it should be added to the spray tank last. Use of Supplemental Tillage In fields where established weeds are too large to be effectively controlled with paraquat or 2,4-0, sweep tillage should be employed. Till before applying the herbicide treatment. This type of tillage will preserve a maximum amount of existing stubble on the surface for soil protection. Similar tillage may also be used if weeds become established prior to receiving adequate rainfall for activation of the herbicide treatment. At some point prior to seeding wheat, the herbicide will degrade and no longer be effective. Limited tillage should be employed at this time. This tillage should be kept shallow to preserve as much oisture as possible for the crops. ... • • , • BLADEX - Trademark of Shell Chemical Co. • Banvel~ - Trademark of Velsicol Chemical Co.
