separately published DuPont recommendations.
APPLICATION INFORMATION· ALL USES
• DuPont™ SYNCHRONY® STSlil herbicide is a
dispersible granule fonnulation which readily dissolves in
water.
• SYNCHRONY® STSQ'; may be used in conventional, no
till, or conservation tillage soybean production.
Timing To Crop Stage
SYNCHRONY® STSIE, for in-season use, may be applied
any time after the first trifoliate has opened but no later than
60 days before soybean maturity .
• SYNCHRONY® STSIE, for bumdown use, may be applied
up to 30 days before planting, or prior to soybean emergence
after planting.
Timing To Weeds
Apply SYNCHRONY® STS® when WI:eds are young and
actively growing (after the first true leaves have expanded,
but before the weeds exceed the size indicated below).
Applications made to weeds larger than the sizes indicated
below, or to weeds under stress, may result in unsatisfactory
control.
Applications made after July 15 may result in less titan
satisfactory weed control due to the Imge sizes of the weeds
and increased weather stress.
Tank Mix Restrictions
When tank mixing SYNCHRONY® STS® with any other
approved soybean pesticide, always read and follow all use
directions, restrictioos and precautions of both SYNCHRONY®
STSlil and the tank mix partner(s). When tank mixing, the most
restrictive labeling applies.
Cultivation
Do not cultivate within 7 days of application. Cultivation
may put weeds under stress by pruning roots, thus
diminishing controL
Cultivation approximately 14 days after application will help
control suppressed weeds.

SYNCHRONY® STS® and "FirstRaJe" Herbicide For improved Ragweed and Cocklebur control, add between 0.075 - 0.3 oz per acre to 0.5 oz per acre SYNCHRONY® STS®. These tankmixes will control up to 10" Cocklebur or Common Ragweed and up to 12" Giant Ragweed. Use a lower amount of "FirstRate" when weeds are less than the maximum size and under good growing conditions. Use a higher amount of "FirstRate" when weeds are approaching the maximum size and/or under unfavorable growing conditions. A good quality petroleum-based or methylated seed oil-based crop oil concentrate must be added to the tank mix at the rate of 8 pints per I 00 gallons of spray solution or at 1% v/v. An ammonium nitrogen fertilizer may be added as directed under the "Spray Additives" section. SYNCHRONY® STS® and 2,4-DB • In soybeans at least 8" tall, SYNCHRONY® STS® may be tank mixed with 1-2 fl oz per acre of 2,4-DB for improved control of giant ragweed up to 4" tall, annual morningglory and other broadleafweeds. • Applications of SYNCHRONY® STS® and 2,4-DB must include a nonionic surfactant at the rate of2 pints per 100 gal or crop oil concentrate at 8 pints per 100 gal of spray solution (1.0% v/v). See Spray Additives. • Apply a tank mix ofSYNCHRONY® STS® and 2,4-DB by ground only. • In Kansas and Missouri (except the bootheel area), when conditions are excessively hot and dry (> 90°F and < 30"10 relative humidity), make applications at the rate of2 fl oz of 2,4-DB and SYNCHRONY® STS®. 4 • The use of crop oil concentrate may increase temporary injury to soybeans. Some crop response may occur 5-7 days after application of SYNCHRONY® STS® and 2,4-DB to soybeans under stress. Temporary yellowing, leaf crinkling, and/or soybean growth retardation may occur fonowing application of SYNCHRONY® STS® and 2,4-DB. Under favorable growing conditions, the crop will quickly recover.

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT
Ground Application
(See Also Spray Drift Management)
Broadcast Application
Postemergence in soybeans, use a minimwn of 10 gal water
per acre. Under heavy weed pressure or dense crop foliage,
increase minimum spray volume to 15-25 gal per acre.
Use flat fan nozzles at 25-60 psi for SYNCHRO~® STS®
applications.
For burndown applications of existing vegetation, flat fan
nozzles and a minimum of 20 gallons per acre are
recommended so as to thoroughly wet the foliage to be burned
down.
Do not use flood, rain drop, whirl chamber, or controlled
droplet applicator (CDA) type nozzles. Unacceptable crop
injwy, excessive spray drift, or poor weed control may result.
For proper spray coverage adjust the boom and nozzle height
according to the specifications listed by the nozzle
manufacturer.
Band Application
Because band applicators spray a narmwer area than broadcast
applicators, use proportionately less spray solution for band
applications.
Carefully calibrate the band applicator to not exceed the
labeled rate.
Flat fan nozzles are recommended.
6
Carefully follow the nozzle manufacturer's instroctions for
nozzle orientation, distance of the nozzles from the crop and
weeds, spray volumes, calibration, and spray pressure for band
applications.
For additioual infonnation on row banders, see DuPont
bulletin, "Application Accuracy - Row Banders."
Aerial Application
(See Also Spray Drift Management)
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum
spray distribution and maximum coverage at 3-5 gal per acre.
Use a minimum 00 gal water per acre. Under heavy weed
pressure or dense crop foliage, increase the minimum spray
volume to 5 gal per acre.
Do not apply during a temperature inversion, when winds are
gusty, or when other conditions could produce poor coverage
and/or off-target spray movement
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
SYNCHRONY® srs® rapidly inhibits the growth of
susceptible weeds. Leaves of susceptible plants yellow 3-5 days
after application, followed, in controlled plants, by the death of
the growing point. SYNCHRONY® STS® will provide
complete control of susceptible weeds in 7-21 days. Suppressed
plants may remain greeo but will be stunted and noncompetitive.

Stress affects some weeds, such as pigweed, more than others.
Delay application until stress passes and weeds start to grow
again.
Severe stress (drought, disease, insect damage, or nutrient
deficiency such as iron chlorosis) following application may also
result in poor weed control.
Do not apply SThCHRONY® STS® if rain is expected within
1 hour or weed control may decrease.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SOIL PH
Soil pH varies greatly, even within the same field. pH variations
as much as 2 pH units are common. Composite soil samples
taken across an entire field, such as those samples taken for soil
fertility recommendations, may not detect areas ofhigh pH. Sub
sampling is recommended for areas likely to have pH values
higher than the field average. The following is a non-inclusive
list of potential high pH areas where subsampling is
recommended.
Where different soil types are evident within a field, sample
soil types separately.
Where conditions Vll1)' within a field, sample areas separately,
such as:
- areas bordered by limestone gravel roads,
- river bottoms subject to flooding,
- low areas in hardpan soils where evaporative ponds
may occur.
- eroded hillsides,
- along drain tile lines, and
- areas where drainage ditch spoil has been spread.
Where lime has not been deeply incorporated, soil may exhibit
significantly higher pH values in the upper 3 inches of soil.
Composite soil samples taken at a 6-8 inch depth may not
reflect the elevated pH near the surface. In these cases shallow
sampling, the upper 3 inches, is advised.
Detennine soil pH by laboratory analysis using a 1:1 soil:water
suspension.
SPRAYER PREPARATION AND CLEANUP
Prior to application of DuPont™ SYNCHRONY® STS®,
stan with clean, wel\ maintained application equipment.
Immediately following application, thoroughly clean all
application equipment. Postponing action, even for a few
hours, only makes effective cleanup more difficult. Failure to
clean spraying equipment thoroughly may result in injury to
subsequently sprayed crops.
When spraying multiple loads of SYNCHRONY® STS® over
an extended period of time. rinse the equipment with clean
water at the end of the day. Leave water in the equipment
overnight to prevent deposits from drying on surfaces.
When applications of SYNCHRONY® STS® are completed
and prior to using the sprayer and associated equipment for
other products or for crops other than soybeans, thoroughly
clean the equipment using the procedure below.
STEP I. Drain spray equipment. Thoroughly rinse sprayer, and
flush hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water.
Loosen and physically remove visible deposits.
STEP 2. Fill the sprayer with clean water and add household
ammonia (one gallon of3% active for every 100
gallons of water) or correct amouot of a DuPont
approved cleaner*. Flush hoses, boom and nozzles.
Tum off the boom and top off the tank with clean
water. Circulate through the spraying system for 15
minutes. Flush the hoses, boom and nozzles with the
cleaning solution. Drain the tank
STEP 3. Remove and clean nozzle, screens and strainers in a
bucket of fresh cleaner and water.
STEP 4. Repeat STEP 2.
STEP 5. Thoroughly rinse the sprayer, hoses, boom and
nozzles with clean water, several times.
Clean all other associated application equipment Take all
necessary safety precautions when c leaning equipment Do not
clean near wells, water sources or ncar desirable vegetation.
Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local
regnlations.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
The interaction of many equipment and weather-related
factors determines the potential for spray drifl. The
applicator is responsible for considering al\ these factors
when making application decisions.
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF THE APPLICATOR.
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply
large droplets (> 150 - 200 microns). The best drift
management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that
provide sufficient coverage and control. The presence of
sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and
pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift
control and coverage. APPL YJNG LARGER DROPLETS
REDUCES DRlIT POTENTIAL, BUT WILL NOT
PREVENT DRlIT IF APPLICATIONS ARE MADE
IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENTAL COl';1)lTlONS! See "ind,
Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions
sections of this label
Controlling Droplet Size - General Techniques
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest
pracli>;al spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows
produce larger droplets.
8
• Pressure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended
for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and
does not improve canopy penetration. WHEN HIGHER
FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE A HIGHER
CAPACITY NOZZLE l:'lSTEAD OF INCREASING
PRESSURE.
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the
intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower
spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low
drift nozzles.
Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum nwnber of nozzles
with the highest flow rate that provide unifonn coverage.
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is
emitted backwards, parallel to the airstream will produce
larger droplets than other orientations.
• Nozzle Type - Solid stream nozzles (such as disc and core
with swirl plate removed) oriented straight back produce
larger droplets than other nozzle types.
Boom Length - The boom length should not exceed 3/4 of
the wing or rotor length - longer booms increase drift
potential.
• Application Height - Application more than lOft above
the canopy increases the potential for spray drift.
(
BOOM HEIGHT
Setting the boom at the lowest labeled height (if specified)
which provides unifonn coverage reduces the exposure of
droplets to evaporation and wind- For ground equipment, the
boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal
bounce.
WIND
Drift potential increases at wind speeds ofless than 3 mph
(due to inversion potential) or more than 10 mph. Howcver,
many factors, including droplet size and equipment type
determine drift potential at any given wind speed- AVOID
GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDITIONS.
Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and
how they affect spray drift.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, set up
equipment to produce larger droplets to reduce effects of
evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion.
Temperature inversions restrict \"ertical air mixing, which
causes small suspended droplets to remain close to the
ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud.
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to fonn
as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. Th~.J
presence can be indicated by groand fog; however, if fog is
not present, inversions can also be identified by the
movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft
smoke generator. Smoke that lavers and moves laterally in a
concentrated cloud (under low V:ind conditions) indicat~ an
inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly
dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the
effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the
applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift a:>d
not interfering with unifonn deposition of the product.
AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLAST)
FIELD CROP SPRAYERS
Air assisted field crop sprayers carry droplets to the targ~t via
a downward directed air stream. Some may reduce the
potential for drift, but if a sprayer is unsuitable for the
application andlor set up improperly, high drift potential can
result. It is the responsibility of the applicator to determine
that a sprayer is suitable for the intended application, is
configured properly, and that drift is not occurring.
Note: Air assisted field sprayers can affect product
performance by affecting spray coverage and canopy
penetration. Consult the application equipment section of
this label to detennine if use of an air assisted sprayer is
recommended.
AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLAST)
TREE AND VINE SPRAYERS
Air assisted tree and vine sprayers carry droplets into the
canopy of trees and vines via a radially or laterally directed
air stream. These sprayers are not suitable for applying
herbicides.
In addition 10 the general drift management principles
already described, the following specific practices will
further reduce the potential for drift.:
• Adjust deflectors and aiming devices so that spray is only
directed into the canopy.
• Block off upward pointed nozzles when there is no
overhanging canopy.
• Use only enough air volume to penetrate the canopy and
provide good coverage.
• Do not allow spray to go beyond the edge of the cultivated
area. Spray the outside row only from outside the
planting.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Do nOtg,:;'<ii~~lllfHr~tQfJia"'iQ~~~W ',, __ -._", - ,,--?:t-"ft~~,'£12'<';k .. ~<~~'_t~:!;~~~~~t;~S,!i<~~:
Injury to or loss of desirable trees or vegetation may result from
failure to observe the following:
Do not apply DuPont™ SYNCHRONY® STS® or drain or
flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants, on
areas where their roots may extend, or in locations where the
chemical may be washed or moved into contact with their
roots.
Do not use on lawns, walks, driveways, tennis courts or
similar areas.
Many crops are sensitive to SYNCHRONY® STS®. AIl direct
or indirect contact (such as spray drift) with crops other than
so~ should be avoided.
Thoroughly clean all application equipment immediately after
use and prior to spraying crops other than soybeans.

INFORMATION ON RESISTANT WEEDS
When herbicides with the same mode of action are used
repeatedly over several years to control the same weed species in
the same field, naturaIly-occurring resistant weed biotypes may
survive a correctly applied herbicide treatment, propagate, and
become dominant in that field. These resistant weed biotypes
may not be adequately controIled-Cultural practices such as
tillage, preventing weed escapes from going to seed, and using
herbicides with different mndes of action within and between
crop seasons can aid in delaying the proliferation and possible
dominan~ of herbicide resistant weed biotypes.
