) ) Field Corn Grown lor Seed: Various seed companies have lesled a wide range 01 inbreds lor sensitivity to ACCENT and have reported elcellent crop safety. However, because 01 the prop<ietary nature 01 seed corn production, Du Pont has not been given access to seed company data. Consequently, Du Pont cannoi be held responsible lor any crop injury arising Irom the use 01 ACCENT on seed corn. The grower is directed 10 contact the seed company lor lull ,"Iormation and recommendations regarding the use 01 ACCENT on inbreds as well as the eflec1 on selectivity from the prior use of a soil-applied organophospl'.ate insecticide. In aI cases, do not apply ACCENT to seed corn which has been treated with "Counter" insecIicide. Do not apply to seed corn taler than 20 inches. Popcorn: Various popcorn COIJ1)aI1ies have tested hybrids for sensitivity to ACCENT and have reported excelent crop safety. However, not aI popcorn hybrids have been tested. Consequently, Du Ponl cannot be held resp0nsi­ ble for any crop injury arising from the use of ACCENT on popcorn. The grower is directed to contact the contracting popcorn company for full infor­ mation and recommendations regarding the use of ACCENT on popcorn hybrids as wei as the eflec1 on selectivity from the prior use 01 a soiapplied organophosphate insecticide. Do not apply ACCENT to 'White Dynamite' popoorn. In aft cases, do not apply ACCENT to popcorn which has been treated with "Counter" insecticide. Do not apply to popcorn taller than 20 inr..hes. Weed stage For best resutts applications should be made to actively growing weeds at growth stages/weed hetghts no greater than those shown in the ACCENT USE RATE GUIDE. Resutts of applications at later growth stages may vary from complete control to suppression, depending on the species, stage of growth and environmental conditions. Heavy infestations of grass andlor broadleaf weeds should be treated before they become too competitive wh the crop, especially where soil moisture andlor fertility are in marginal supply. Where an early postemergence treat­ ment is deemed necessary, a second application or a timely cultivation may be required to control later emerging weeds. Weather: Condions which promote heatthy, actively growing plants result in the best weed control pertormance with ACCENT. Best activity occurs during warm, moist conditions (70 degrees F or more), and adequate soil moisture belore, during and immediately after application. When application is made during cool (less than 50 degrees F) dry weather or to weeds har ened off by drought or cold, weeds may only be suppressed. ACCENT is rainlast 4 hours after application. Ground application: Increase spray volume and pressUle as weed density and size increases. Avoid overlapping, and shut off spray booms v.ilile start­ ing, turning, sJoo<,ing or slopping, or injUIY to the crop might result Refer 10 specific equipment manulacturer's recommendations for addional informa­ tion on spray volume, pressure, speed, nozzle type and arrangemen nozzle height above the target area, etc., for respective application equipment. Use a nozzle spacing and boom height 3Ifangement that avoids applying an excessive rate 01 ACCENT directly over the corn rows and into the whorl. Reier to manufacturers' recommendations for proper boom heigh! above the corn .. herl for specific nozzle types. Also refer to the DuPont Bulletin "APPLICATION ACCURACY FOR ACCENT HERBICIDE". For optimum spray distribution and thorough ooverage, use nat fan nozzles at 2().4() psi. Use a minimum of 10 gallons carrier per acre. Under heavy weed pressure, dense crop foItage. or mo~ture stress condiIJons, increase carrier volume tt, at least 15 gallons per acre and use maximum spray pres­ sure recommended lor the nozzle type. For band applications, apply proportionately less product. To avoid crop injury due to improper applicalJon, CALIBRATE ROWBANDER UNITS BY FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS CONTAINED IN THE DUPONT BULLETIN "APPLICATION ACCURACY - ROWBANDERS". 3 RaindlOp', flood and other nozzles which pro<fuc<, very coarse sprays are not recommended for ACCENT applications because weed control perlor­ mance may be reduced. Use 5().mesh or larger strainer SCf'een5. Aerial application: Use nozzle types and arrangements that provide opinum spray distribution and malirun coverage 01 \he weeds. CAUTION

• AVOID SPRAY DRIFT. See the CAUTp!l - AVOID SPRAY DRIFT se<ion of this label for additional information. Do not apply during inversion c0ndi­ tions, when winds are gusty or when other conditic'lS favor poor coverage and'or off-larget spray movement. For shanercane and Johnsongrass, use 3 GPA and apply on fiefd corn less than 24 inches tall and on popoorn or freld corn grown for seed less than 20 inches tal. For other labeled grasses in freld corn, popcorn or freld corn grown for seed use 3 GPA on corn up to 8 inches tal and 5 GPA on corn 8 to 16 inches taH. Do not apply to other labeled grasses in field corn, popcorn or fieid corn grown for seed that is taller than 16 inches. Continueus agitation is required to keep ACCENT in suspension. Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type I irrigation system. CAUTION· AVOID SPRAY DRIFT It is important with all crop protection products to minimize spray drift. Follow these practices to avoid oft-target movement: o Stop spraying il wind speed becomes elcessive. DO NOT SPRAY IF WIND SPEED IS 10 MPH OR GREATER. Spray drift can occur at wind speeds less than 10 MPH. If sensitive crops or plants are downv;,nd, caution must be used, even in relatively low wind conditions. DO NOT SPRAY IF WINDS ARE GUSIY. o High temperatures, drought and low relative humidity increase the DOss bilily 01 spray drift. CAt rTION MUST BE USED WHEN THESE CONDI­ TIONS ARE PRESEN'I AND SENSITIVE CROPS OR PI.ANTS ARE NEARBY, REGARDLESS OF WIND SPEED. o Do net apply when a temperature inversion exists. An inversion is char· acterized by low air movement and an increase in air temperature w~h an increase in altitude. In humid regions, a fog or mist may form. An inver­ sion may be detected by produciflQ a smoke column from a source on the ground and checking for a layering effect. Smoke producing devices on aircraft are recommended. II you are not sure whether inversion condi­ tions exist, consuft with focal weather services before making an applica­ tion. o Use 01 high pressure increases the risk of drift. Do not apply ACCENT at pressUles in elcess of 40 PSI. o Risks 01 drill Irom aerial or ground e<ju;prnent may be "':1her reduced by:

1. Using large droplet sizes. DO NOT APPLY WITH ,HUlLOW-CONE INSECTICIDE NOZZLES ON GRr llJNII fOUIPMEN"l: lJo not use nozzles or equipment that prodl'ce sina') droplets, such as mist blowers or airblast-\ype nozzles. \hl'.e, should .;e ?rie'rled at an angle between straight down and strai¢t ba for grciund 3PPIications. ,. . .. )
2. Increasing volume per acre of spr~~. mi, ,and uSil1\l h;gher ;fIow-rate nozzles. .
3. Reducing pressure (PSI). Do not elceed 40 P::I WI,E,' .applYlng ACCENT. Vehicle speed must also be reducr!(j to moll.tui,' spray mil volume per acre. Consult manufacturers' catalog. lor letads on corr~c1 cahbratlon. 8EST AV,",.:·-.:.Lc COPl

) 4) For ground applications, be aware of neighboring sensitive crops. Do nol turn near sensitive crops wilhout shutting off sprayer prior to making Ihe turn. Be aware 01 the wind direction 10 avoid pesticide movement onlo a sensitive crop. NOTE: "you are not sure a given spray applocalion witl stay on the tar~)t site, postpone lhe applicalion. The minimization of pesticide drift is lhe responsibility 01 the person appIyi'9 the pesticide. Interactions between weather conditions and land configurations may contribute to unpredictallle drift patterns 01 all crop protection products. SPRAY PREPARATION It is in1KJrtant that spray equipment is dean and free 01 existing pesticide deposits before using ACCENT. Follow the cleanup procedures s,>eeIted on the label of the product(s) previously sprayed. • no deanout procedL.e is provided, foIow this deanout proan.e for at app!ication equ~ befo;~ using ACCENT:

1. Th<',ough/y rinse sprayer. tanks, boom and hoses with clean water.
2. Partialy fiU tank with water and add ammonia (1 gallon of household ammonia per 100 gal. of tank YOIume) or a tank cleaner. Follow individual label instructions for the amount of tank cleaner 10 use. Complete f~ling the tank and flush the cleaning soIutJon through the boom hoses. let stand for 15 minules while ag:talinglrecirculating and then drain the tank alter flushing the hoses booms and noules.
3. Thoroughly rinse the sprayer, tanks. boom anid hoses with clean water.
4. Follow labet directions on prciducl(s) previously sprayed for rinsale dis­ posal. Mix the proper amount of ACCENT into the necessary volume of water in Ihe spray tank wilh the agilalor running, then add the adjuvant(s) and any companion herbicide to the lank after all the ACCENT is in suspension. Residues of lank mix partners remaining in the spray tank may interfere with the dispersion of ACCENT. If ACCENT and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads, pre-slurry ACCENT in clean water prior to adding to the tank. Apply ACCENT spray preparation within 24 hours after mixing or prciduct degradation may occur. If spray preparation is left standing, agitate thor­ oughly before continuing to spray. Adjuvanls: Always add a crop oil concentrate (COG) OR nonionic suriac­ tant to the spray mixture. Use a goOO quality petroleum-based COG ::on­ taini% at least 15% emulsifltrs/ suriactanls. Add COC to the spray mixlure at 10/, voIJvoI. (1 gallon per 100 galfons of spray mixture). COG is recom­ mended for certain grasses and for applications made during hot, dry condi­ tions. If a nenionic sUllactant is substijuted for COC, use a suri312nt that contains at least 80% active ingredient (of wI1ich at least 50% is actual nonionic sur­ lattant). Add suriac\ant at 0.25% voIlvoi. (1 quart per 100 gallons 01 spray solution). Use only EPA approved surfactants authorized for use on food crops. AVOID PRODUCTS THAT 00 NOT ACCURATelY DEFINE THEIR NGREDIENT5. Adding liquid nilrogen fertilizer soIu1ion (e.g., 28-0-0 Of 32-0-0) or spray graide am"'onium sulfate to the spray solution may improve the control 01 certain weed species. However, a nonionic surlactant or crop oil concefl­ trate wi" still be necessary. Add liquid nitrogen fertihzer solution al 4% voIlvoI. (4 gal. pc' 100 gal.). Add spray graide ammonium suHate at 2 Ib producVacre. Do net use liquid fertihzer solutions or suspensions as the total carrier because excessive crop injury may occur. Corn tolerance to ACCENT is very high. so adjUV"nt selection can be based solely on maximizing weed control. If anolher herbicide is tank mixed wllh ACCENT to increase broadleaf weed spectrum, adjuvant selection must be determined accordmg to selectIVIty Iimltahons 01 the other herbICide. 11 allowed by lhe tank miX partner, select COG or nonJOnIC suriaclant • nitro- gen fertilizer. Reier to TANK MIXES sect"'" 01 the label lor addltlonallntor­ mahon. Control of woony cupgtass and sandbur is maximized with the use of COG and either 280/, nihogen ferlizer SolUlion or anlmonium su!lale. APPLICATION RATE ACCENT may be appfied postemergence to control many grass weeds and selected annual broa<leaf weeds in field corn, popcorn and field corn grown tor seed. Do not apply to sweet corn. Apply ACCENT al the rates listed in ACCENT USE 'lATE GUIDE.

) ) As weeds mature. theu sensitIVIty to ACCENT decreases. Mature grassy weeds (more than three tlHers) may be smaller than the size tisted in Ihe ACCENT USE RATE GUIDE due to drought or other environmental factors. When conditions exist where weeds are maturing rapidly. apply ACCENT to weeds whICh are smaller than heights listed in the ACCENT USE RATE GUIDE. In the WESTERN U.S. and WESTERN AREAS OF THE CORN BELT. arid conditions prevail and may require t oz product to control ditflCuH annual species such as green and yellow foxtail. wild proSQ millet and sandbur. Whf'~ selec!iI1? adjuvan:s, use COC or add liquid nilrogen fertilizer or ammonium sulfate to a nonionic surfactant Sequential Applications Annual weeds sometimes will have mOte than one flush of seedling emer­ gence and trealed pereMials may sometimes regrow from undIerground siems or roots, dlepending upon rainfan and other environmental condi­ lions. To maximize control of such weeds, il may be necessary 10 use a sequential application of ACCENT in which the first application goes on early before the weeds become competitive, followed by a second applica­ tion 14-28 days laler, depending upon Ihe timing of a new flush or regrowth. The combined dosage of the sequenlial appIicalions cannol exceed 1 1/3 ozlacre of ACCENT. Annual weeds:For shaltercane, seedling Johnsongrass, and annual g<asses: 213 oziaCIe followed by 2/3 ozlacre 14·28 days laler, depending upon Ihe emergence of the new flush. Perennial weeds: For sequential applicalions to rhizome Johnsongrass apply 2J3 oz. ACCENT when johnsongrass;s 6-i2" tall, followed by 213 oz. ACCENT when new growth is 6-1 0". Cultivation Cultivation may be used as an addllional weed control measure 10 remove weed escapes following ACCENT trealment andior as an alternative to a sequential ACCENT treatment Ideal timing for cultivation is 7-14 days after ACCENT application. Do not cultivate within 10 days prior to ACCENT application. or control may be reduced. TANK MIXES ACCENT + atraline: ACCENT may be tank mIXed with atrazine for improved control of broadleaf weeds. See alrazine label for addilional weeds contrOlled, weed sizes and applicaliOn condllions. For weeds lisled on both ACCENT and atrazine labels, follow the weed size guidelines which are least restrictive. Tank mix ACCENT with 314 - 1112 quarts/acre aITazine 4L or 0.83 - 1.66 Ib atrazine 90% dry flowable and apply before corn is 12 inches tall.

A nitrogen fertilizer solution (28%, 32% N) at 4% wIIvoI (4 gaVl00 gal) or 2 b'.lCIe spray grade lMMIOnium sulfate may be added to enhance ACCENT perbrmance on certain weeds, but nonicnic surfactant must always be added. Apply this tank mixture before corn reaches eight inches in height. DO NOT ADD CROP OIL CONCENTRATE TO THIS TANK MIXTURE, or excessive crop injury may occur. DO NOT APPLY THIS TANK MIX TO CORN TALLER THAN 12 INCHES. Control 01 green and yellow Ioxtail may be antagonized with this tank mix. TImely cultivation or a second application of 2/3 oz. p;oduct of ACCENT may ~ required tor complete control. ) NOTE: DO NOT TANKMIX with 'Basagran", "laddok", or "Tandem" as severe crop injury may occur. Do not tank mix with 2,4·0 as severe antagonism may occur. ) ACCENT may be tank mi"ed with ASANA" XL or LANNATE" insecticides. CROP ROTATIONAL GUIDELINES Rotational crops vary in their response to low concentrations of ACCENT remaining in the soil after corn ha'Vest. ACCENT dissipates rapidly in warmer, acidic, microbiologically-active seils. The amount 01 ACCENT which may be present in the soil is dependent upon rate used, soil pH and organic maHer content, elapsed time since ACCENT application, crop pro­ duction practICes and climate and weather lactors. Injury to rotational crops may occur on high pH (> 7.5). cold soils il extremely dry weather prevails between application and rotational crop planting. Consult your local DuPont representative lor additional guide­ lines. SPRAYER CLEANUP AT THE END OF THE DAY: To prevent the buildup 01 dried pesticide deposits, which can accumulate on application equipment during periods when muiliple loads 01 ACCENT will be applied, rinse the interior 01 the tank at the end 01 each day 01 spraying with fresh water. Then, partially fill the tank with water and flush the boom and hoses. Rinsate may be disposed of on-site, if allowed, or at an approved waste disposallacility. Allow the remainder 01 thF water to stand in the tank overnight. AFTER LAST ACCENT APPLICATION: To avoid subsequent injury to desirable crops, thoroughly clean al mixing and spray equipment immediately after application 01 ACCENT: t. Drain tank; thoroughly rinse spray tank, boom and hoses with clean water. Loosen and physically remove any visible deposijs. 2. Fill the tank with clean water, while adding 1 gallon household ammonia (contains 3% active) (') !or every 100 gal. of waler. Flush the boom, hoses and nozzles with cleaning solutIOn, then add more water to completely fill the tank. Circulate the cleaning solution through the tank and hoses lor at least 15 minutes. Flush the tank, boorn and hoses w,lh the cleaning solullon and dra,n tank.
