ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water
mark. Do not contaminate water when cleaning equipment or disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. Do not apply
where/when conditions favor runoff.
Groundwater Advisory
This product has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. This product may leach
into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils
and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via
runoff for several days or more after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which
this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of
this product from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by avoiding applications when
rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
Windblown Soil Particles
This product has the potential to move off-site due to wind erosion. Soils that are subject to wind erosion usually have a
high silt and/or fine to very fine sand fractions and low organic matter content. Other factors which can affects the
movement of windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing winds, vegetative cover, site slope, rainfall,
and drainage patterns. Avoid applying this product if prevailing local conditions may be expected to result in off-site
movement.
Non-target Organism Advisory
This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of non-target organisms, including
pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated area. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by minimizing
spray drift. For further guidance and instructions on how to minimize spray drift, refer to the Spray Drift Management
section of this label.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
USERS SHOULD:Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove
clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. Remove PPE
immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly
and change into clean clothing.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
DPX-M6316 SG may be used for selective postemergence control of certain broadleaf weeds in soybeans, corn, safflower, pre-plant
burndown, post-harvest burndown, and fallow. DPX-M6316 SG is a soluble granule to be mixed in water or other recommended
carrier and applied as a uniform broadcast spray. It is noncorrosive, nonflammable, nonvolatile and does not freeze.
RESTRICTIONS
• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
• Do not apply by air in New York.
• Do not apply, drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants or 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.
• Do not allow sprays to drift to desirable plants.
When using DPX-M6316 SG in tank mixes or sequential applications with other products containing thifensulfuron-methyl, do not
exceed the following application rate limits (also refer to specific crop application directions section for additional use restrictions):
PRECAUTIONS
• Calibrate sprayers only with clean water away from the well site.
• Make scheduled checks of spray equipment.
• Assure accurate measurement of pesticides by all operation employees.
• Mix only enough product for the job at hand.
• Avoid over-filling of spray tank.
• Do not discharge excess material on the soil at a single spot in the field/grove or mixing/loading station.
• Dilute and agitate excess solution and apply at labeled rates/uses.
• Avoid storage of pesticides near well sites.
• When triple rinsing the pesticide container, be sure to add the rinsate to the spray mix.
Injury to or loss of adjacent sensitive crops, desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the following:
• Take all necessary precautions to avoid all direct or indirect contact (including spray drift) with non-target plants or areas.
Carefully observe all sprayer cleanup instructions both prior to and after using this product, as spray tank residue may damage crops
other than wheat, barley, oats, triticale, corn or soybeans.
For ground applications applied when dry, dusty field conditions exist, control of weeds in wheel track areas may be reduced.
Soybeans, corn and safflower varieties may differ in their response to various herbicides. DuPont recommends that you first consult
your state experiment station, university, or extension agent as to sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is available, limit the
initial use of DPX-M6316 SG to a small area.
Avoid applying DPX-M6316 SG to crops that are stressed by severe weather conditions, drought (including low levels of subsoil
moisture), low fertility, water-saturated soil, disease, or insect damage, as crop injury may result. Severe winter stress, drought,
disease, or insect damage following application also may result in crop injury.
BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Best results are obtained when DPX-M6316 SG is applied to young, actively growing weeds. The use rate will depend on
weed spectrum and size of weed at time of application. The degree of control and duration of effect are dependent on rate
used, sensitivity and size of target weed and environmental conditions at the time of and following application.
DPX-M6316 SG stops growth of susceptible weeds rapidly. However, typical symptoms of dying weeds (discoloration)
may not be noticeable for 1-3 weeks after application (2-5 weeks for wild garlic) depending on the environmental

conditions and weed susceptibility. Warm, moist conditions following treatment promote the activity of DPX-M6316 SG,
while cold, dry conditions delay the activity. Weeds hardened-off by cold weather or drought stress will be less susceptible.
A vigorous growing crop will aid weed control by shading and providing competition for weeds. However, a dense crop
canopy at time of application can intercept spray and result in reduced weed control. Weeds may not be adequately
controlled in areas of thin crop stand or seeding skips.
Applications made to weeds that are in the cotyledon stage, larger than the size indicated, or to weeds under stress may
result in unsatisfactory control.
DPX-M6316 SG may injure crops that are stressed from adverse environmental conditions (including extreme temperatures
or moisture), abnormal soil conditions, or cultural practices. In addition, different varieties of the crop may have differing
levels of sensitivity to treatment with DPX-M6316 SG under otherwise normal conditions. Treatment of sensitive crop
varieties may injure crops.
Weed control may be reduced if rainfall or snowfall occurs soon after application. Several hours of dry weather are needed
to allow DPX-M6316 SG to be sufficiently absorbed by weed foliage.
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
DPX-M6316 SG, which contains the active ingredient thifensulfuron-methyl, is a Group 2 herbicide based on the mode of
action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America.
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to one or
more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include the use of multiple herbicides
with different sites of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or other cultural
practices. Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for
resistance.
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed resistance management
program.
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should:
• Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed sizes
present.
• Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
• Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches).
• Apply full rates of DPX-M6316 SG herbicide for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the specified time
(correct weed size) to minimize weed escapes.
• Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
• Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
• Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your DuPont representative, local
retailer, or county extension agent.
• Contact your DuPont representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this MOA
have been found in your region. If resistant biotypes of target weeds have been reported, use the application rates of this
product specified for your local conditions. Tank mix products so that there are multiple effective sites of actions for each
target weed.
• If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than Group 2 and/or use
nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production.
• Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
• Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is
achieved on adjacent weeds;
• A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
• Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is practical:
• Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control program.
• Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
• Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 2 herbicides.
• Avoid making more than two applications of DPX-M6316 SG herbicide and any other Group 2 herbicides within a
single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping spectrum for the
difficult-to-control weeds.
4
• Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, including mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and weed-
free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
• Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness.
• Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds.
• Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
This product may be used as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that can include biological, cultural,
and genetic practices aimed at preventing economic pest damage. Application of this product should be based on IPM
principles and practices including field scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest identification, population
monitoring, and treating when target pest populations reach locally determined action thresholds. Consult your state
cooperative extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate action
treatment threshold levels for treating specific pest/crop systems in your area.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT ADVISORIES
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT.
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While
applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or
under unfavorable environmental conditions.
Controlling Droplet Size Ground Boom
• Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical
spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
• Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size.
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Ground Boom Applications:
• Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or crop
canopy unless making a rangeland application, in which case applicators may apply with a nozzle height no more than
4 feet above the ground.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or coarser
droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Aerial Applications:
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is
necessary for pilot safety.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or coarser
droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade diameter for
helicopters.
• Applicators must use one-half swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Boom-less Ground Applications:
• Applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1) for all applications.
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
5
• Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce
drift.
Controlling Droplet Size Aircraft
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets,
nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
BOOM HEIGHT Ground Boom
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide uniform coverage. For ground
equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
RELEASE HEIGHT Aircraft
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. When applying aerially to crops, do not release spray at a height
greater than 10 ft above the crop canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
Boom-less Ground Applications:
• Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
Handheld Technology Applications:
• Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are
not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with
altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated
by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and
moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward
and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
WIND
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.
DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVES
Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is used, read and
carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additives label. If using an additive that increases
viscosity, ensure that the nozzles and other application equipment will function properly with a viscous spray solution.
Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA).
SOYBEANS
APPLICATION TIMING
DPX-M6316 SG may be applied to soybeans any time after the first trifoliate has expanded fully. Early-season soybean
injury may result from tank-mix applications with other registered herbicides. Injury may manifest itself as stunting (seen
as a reduction in leaf size or internode length), yellowing leaves and/or red veins, and necrosis in the leaves and petioles.
The potential for soybean injury is most pronounced with applications made during hot, humid conditions, under widely
fluctuating weather or temperature conditions, or with applications to soybeans under stress.
Late applications (after the bloom stage) may result in crop injury in non-STS soybeans.
Restriction: Apply no later than 60 days before harvest.
USE RATES IN SOYBEANS
Make a single application of DPX-M6316 SG at a rate of 0.125 (1/8) ounce per acre for selective postemergence broadleaf
weed control on conventional soybean varieties. Use DPX-M6316 SG at 1/8 to 1/2 ounce per acre on soybeans designated
"STS". Severe injury or death of soybeans will result if any soybeans not designated as "STS" are treated with more than
1/8 ounce of DPX-M6316 SG.
Restrictions:
- Do not make more than one application to conventional soybean varieties.
6
- Multiple applications of DPX-M6316 SG may be applied to "STS" soybeans provided no more than a total of 1/2 ounce
of DPX-M6316 SG total is applied per acre per year, with a minimum retreatment interval of 7-days.
SPRAY ADDITIVES
Applications of DPX-M6316 SG in soybeans must include a nonionic surfactant or crop oil concentrate, and an
ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. See “SPRAY ADJUVANTS”.
WEEDS CONTROLLED
When applied to soybeans as directed, DPX-M6316 SG will control the following weeds:
Maximum
Weeds Controlled Size (inches)
Annual Smartweeds 6
Lambsquarters 4
Pigweed
Rough (red root)† 12
Palmer pigweed† 4
Other species 8
Velvetleaf 6
Wild Mustard† up to 4" in dia.
Maximum
Partial Control* Size (inches)
Cocklebur† 6
Jimsonweed 4
Wild Sunflower 6
*Partial Control: A visual reduction of weed population as well as a significant loss of vigor for individual weed plants.
† Naturally occurring resistant biotypes are known to occur.
TANK MIXTURES IN SOYBEANS
DPX-M6316 SG may be tank mixed with full or reduced rates of other products registered for use in soybeans.
It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable
restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most
restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
Restriction: Do not tank mix DPX-M6316 SG with organophosphate insecticides, or apply DPX-M6316 SG within 14 days before
or after an application of an organophosphate insecticide, as severe crop injury may occur.
With Postemergence Grass Herbicides
Include a nonionic surfactant with the tank mix of DPX-M6316 SG and post grass herbicides including quizalofop-p-ethyl
containing herbicide. With post grass herbicides, surfactant rate (concentration) typically used is 1-2 pints per 100 gallons of spray
solution (0.125%-0.25% v/v concentration). Use of a higher rate of nonionic surfactant, particularly under hot, humid conditions,
may result in temporary crop injury. Do not use crop oil concentrate when tank mixing DPX-M6316 SG with postemergence grass
herbicides. Do not tank mix with "Poast" Plus. Tank Mixes with "Select Max" may result in unacceptable injury.
With Glyphosate Based Herbicides
DPX-M6316 SG may be tank mixed with glyphosate for improved control of certain broadleaf weeds in soybeans
containing Roundup Ready and STS traits. In addition to the weeds listed above, this tank mix will provide improved
control of volunteer Roundup Ready canola, ALS-sensitive horseweed and kochia, and wild buckwheat.
When tank mixing DPX-M6316 SG with glyphosate, it is recommended to add ammonium sulfate (AMS) at 4.25 - 17 lb
per 100 gal of spray mixture. See the glyphosate manufacturers label for specific ammonium nitrogen recommendations.
When velvetleaf is present, ammonium sulfate is required at a minimum rate of 2 lb per acre.
The addition of surfactant at 0.125 - 0.25% v/v (1-2 pt per 100 gal spray mixture) to some DPX-M6316 SG plus glyphosate
tank mixes will improve weed control when glyphosate products are used that do not contain built-in adjuvant systems.
Glyphosate products differ in their adjuvant contents. Glyphosate products such as Glyphomax or Roundup Original allow
for addition of surfactants. See the manufacturers specific surfactant recommendations.
With Chlorimuron-ethyl Based Herbicides
DPX-M6316 SG may be tank mixed with a chlorimuron-ethyl containing herbicide for improved control of certain
broadleaf weeds in soybeans. In addition to the weeds listed above, this tank mix will provide improved control of
7
cocklebur, common ragweed, jimsonweed, marestail, and yellow nutsedge. Refer to the chlorimuron-ethyl herbicide label
for additional weeds controlled.
Apply a tank mix of a chlorimuron-ethyl herbicide plus 0.125 (1/8) ounce of DPX-M6316 SG per acre. Application must
include a nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.125 - 0.25% v/v (1-2 pt per 100 gal spray solution). Use of the higher rate of NIS,
particularly under hot, humid conditions, may increase temporary crop injury. DO NOT use "Dash", crop oil concentrate,
or methylated seed oils as adjuvants with this tank mix. The use of ammonium nitrogen fertilizer is required for control of
velvetleaf and ragweeds. See “SPRAY ADJUVANTS”. A postemergence grass herbicide, including a quizalofop-p-ethyl
containing herbicide, may also be tank mixed with DPX-M6316 SG plus a chlorimuron-ethyl containing herbicide.
With Imazethapyr Based Herbicides (in the states of IL, IN, IA, MI, MN, ND, OH, PA, SD, and WI)
DPX-M6316 SG may be tank mixed with a imazethapyr containing herbicide for improved control of nightshade (less than
2" tall) in soybeans. Apply after the first trifoliate of the soybeans has fully expanded and plants are actively growing but
before soybeans begin to flower.
Apply a tank mix of 0.125 (1/8) ounce of DPX-M6316 SG plus the specified label rate of imazethepyr herbicide per acre.
A chlorimuron-ethyl based herbicide may also be added to this tank mix. Application must include a nonionic surfactant
(NIS) at 0.125% v/v (1pt per 100 gal spray solution). Under dry, cool (generally 70
o F or less) conditions the rate of NIS
may be increased to 2 pints per 100 gallons of solution. DO NOT use "Dash", crop oil concentrate, or methylated seed oils
as adjuvants with this tank mix. The use of ammonium nitrogen fertilizer is required. See “SPRAY ADJUVANTS”.
This tank mix combination may shorten stem internodal length and cause temporary crop injury. Crop response may be
increased when applications are made to soybeans that are under stress. Soybeans will recover quickly under normal
growing conditions. Sequential applications of DPX-M6316 SG following postemergence a quizalofop-p-ethyl based
herbicide are not recommended due to the potential for reduced weed control and increased crop injury.
DPX-M6316 SG plus an imazethapyr containing herbicide may be tank mixed with applications with II to control
volunteer corn and shattercane. Use of an imazethapyr based product may reduce the activity of a quizalofop-p-ethyl based
herbicide on other grasses. For broad-spectrum grass control, apply a quazilifop-p-ethyl containing herbicide 1 day before
or 7 days after a imazethapyr herbicide treatment.
SEQUENTIAL APPLICATIONS IN SOYBEANS
Before making applications of DPX-M6316 SG to soybeans previously treated with other herbicides, ensure that the soybeans are
free from stress (herbicide or environmental) and actively growing.
CULTIVATION
A timely cultivation may be necessary to control suppressed weeds, weeds that were beyond the maximum size at the time of
application, or weeds that emerge after an application of DPX-M6316 SG. Do not cultivate within 7 days before or after the
application. Cultivation may decrease weed control by pruning roots and placing the weed under stress. The best time to cultivate
is approximately 14 days after application.
GRAZING AND FEEDING RESTRICTIONS - SOYBEANS
• Allow at least 7 days between application and grazing of treated forage.
• In addition, allow at least 7 days between application and feeding of forage (green chop) from treated areas to livestock.
• Allow at least 30 days between application and feeding of dried hay from treated areas to livestock. Harvested straw may be
used for bedding and/or feed.
FIELD CORN
Apply DPX-M6316 SG to field corn hybrids with a Relative Maturity (RM) of 88 days or more, including "food grade" (yellow
dent, hard endosperm), waxy and high-oil corn. Not all field corn hybrids of less than 88 days RM, not all white corn hybrids or Hi-
Lysine hybrids have been tested for crop safety, nor does DuPont have access to all seed company data. Consult with your seed
supplier before applying DPX-M6316 SG to any of these corn types.
DPX-M6316 SG may interact with certain insecticides previously applied to the crop. Crop response varies with field corn type,
insecticide used, insecticide application method, and soil type.
• DPX-M6316 SG may be applied to corn previously treated with chlorethoxyfos, tebupirimphos, tefluthrin or
nonorganophosphate (OP) soil insecticides regardless of soil type.
• Applications of DPX-M6316 SG to corn previously treated with chlorpyrifos, or other organophosphate insecticides not listed
above or below, may result in temporary crop injury.
• Applications of DPX-M6316 SG to corn previously treated with a terbufos, chlorpyrifos or phorate based insecticide may cause
unacceptable crop injury, especially on soils of less than 4% organic matter.
• DO NOT apply DPX-M6316 SG to corn previously treated with a terbufos based insecticide.
Do not apply to sweet corn, popcorn or field corn grown for seed. Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation systems.
8
APPLICATION TIMING
DPX-M6316 SG may be applied to 2-6 leaf field corn with 1- 5 collars or up to 16 inches tall. Do not apply to field corn taller than
16 inches or 5 collars, whichever is more restrictive.
USE RATES IN FIELD CORN
Make a single application of DPX-M6316 SG at a rate of 0.125 (1/8) ounce per acre for selective postemergence broadleaf weed
control on field corn hybrids.
Restriction: Do not make more than one application per acre per year.
SPRAY ADDITIVES
Applications of DPX-M6316 SG in field corn must include either nonionic surfactant at 0.25% v/v (1 qt/100 gal) or crop oil
concentrate at 1% v/v (1 gal/100 gal) plus either ammonium nitrogen solution such as 28% UAN (2-4 qt/acre) of ammonium sulfate
(2-4 lb/acre). See “SPRAY ADJUVANTS”.
WEEDS CONTROLLED
Apply to weeds whose first true leaves are expanded but before weeds exceed the sizes listed below. When applied as directed,
DPX-M6316 SG will control the following weeds:
Weed Controlled Maximum Size (Inches)
Velvetleaf 6
Pigweed species† 12
Lambsquarters 4
Annual smartweeds 6
Wild mustard† up to 4” in dia.
† Naturally occurring resistant biotypes are known to occur.
TANK MIXTURES IN FIELD CORN
DPX-M6316 SG may be applied as a tank mixture with labeled rates of atrazine. DPX-M6316 SG may be applied as a tank mixture
with labeled rates of glyphosate for use only on “Roundup Ready” field corn. Do not tank mix with other corn herbicides or spray
adjuvant except as specified in this label.
It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable
restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most
restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
When tank mixing DPX-M6316 SG with glyphosate, it is recommended to add ammonium sulfate (AMS) at 4.25 - 17 lb per 100
gal of spray mixture. See the glyphosate manufacturers label for specific ammonium nitrogen directions. When velvetleaf is
present, ammonium sulfate is required at a minimum rate of 2 lb per acre.
The addition of surfactant at 0.125 - 0.25% v/v (1-2 pt per 100 gal spray mixture) to some DPX-M6316 SG plus glyphosate tank
mixes will improve weed control when glyphosate products are used that do not contain built-in adjuvant systems. Glyphosate
products differ in their adjuvant contents. Glyphosate products such as Glyphomax or Roundup Original allow for addition of
surfactants. See the manufacturers specific surfactant directions.
GRAZING AND FEEDING RESTRICTIONS - FIELD CORN
• Do not graze or feed forage or grain from treated field corn to livestock within 30 days of application.
SAFFLOWER
DPX-M6316 SG may be used on safflower for selective postemergence control of certain broadleaf weeds in North Dakota, South
Dakota, Nebraska, Montana (east of Route 87 or east of I-15), and Wyoming (east of I-25 or north of I-90). The degree and duration
of control may depend on the weed spectrum and infestation intensity, the weed size at application and/or the environmental
conditions at and following treatment.
USE RATES
For best results, apply 0.45 to 0.6 oz of DPX-M6316 SG per acre.
Restrictions:
- Make last application no later than 81 days prior to harvesting.
- Sequential treatments of DPX-M6316 SG may be made provided the total amount of DPX-M6316 SG applied to safflower does
not exceed 0.6 oz per acre per crop year.

SPECIFIC WEED INSTRUCTIONS
Common chickweed and wild buckwheat: For best results, apply a minimum of 0.75 ounce DPX-M6316 SG per acre plus
surfactant when all or the majority of weeds have germinated and are past the cotyledon stage. Apply to weeds less than 3
inches tall or across at the time of DPX-M6316 SG application.
Kochia: Naturally occurring biotypes resistant to DPX-M6316 SG are known to occur. For best results, use DPX-M6316
SG in a tank mix with a fluoroxypyr, fluoroxypyr and isooctyl (2-ethylhexyl) ester of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid,
fluroxypyr and 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, 2-ethylhexyl ester, dicamba and 2,4-D or MCP (ester or amine), or
bromoxynil containing products.
Apply DPX-M6316 SG in the spring when kochia are less than 2" tall and are actively growing.
Russian thistle, Prickly lettuce: Naturally occurring biotypes resistant to DPX-M6316 SG of these weeds are known to
occur. For best results, use DPX-M6316 SG in a tank mix with dicamba and 2,4-D or MCP (ester or amine), or
bromoxynil containing products.
Apply DPX-M6316 SG in the spring when Russian thistle, and prickly lettuce are less than 2" tall or 2" across and are
actively growing.
Wild garlic: For best results, apply 0.75 to 0.9 ounce DPX-M6316 SG per acre plus surfactant when wild garlic plants are
less than 12 inches tall with 2 to 4 inches of new growth. For severe infestations, use the 0.9 ounce per acre rate of DPX-
M6316 SG. Control may be reduced when plants are hardened-off by cold weather and/or drought stress. Control is
enhanced when applications are made during warm temperatures to actively growing wild garlic plants. Typical symptoms
of dying wild garlic plants (discoloration and collapse) may not be noticeable for 2-5 weeks.
Thorough coverage of all garlic plants is essential. Tank mixes of DPX-M6316 SG plus a metribuzin based product can
result in reduced control of wild garlic.
Wild radish: For best results, apply 0.75 to 0.9 ounce DPX-M6316 SG per acre plus surfactant either in the fall or spring to
wild radish rosettes less than 6 inches in diameter. Applications made later than 30 days after weed emergence will result in
partial control. Make fall applications prior to hardening-off of plants.
SU/IMI Tolerant Volunteer Sunflowers: For best results, use DPX-M6316 SG in a tank mix with a fluoroxypyr,
fluoroxypyr and isooctyl (2-ethylhexyl) ester of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, fluroxypyr and 2-methyl-4-
chlorophenoxyacetic acid, 2-ethylhexyl ester, dicamba and 2,4-D or MCP (ester or amine), or bromoxynil containing
products.
CROP ROTATION RESTRICTIONS
• Soybeans, field corn, grain sorghum, rice, safflower, wheat, barley, oats, and triticale may be planted anytime after the
application of DPX-M6316 SG.
• Cotton may be planted 7 days after the application.
• Any other crop may be planted 45 days after the application. .
PRODUCT APPLICATION INFORMATION
PRODUCT MEASUREMENT
DPX-M6316 SG is measured using the DPX-M6316 SG volumetric measuring cylinder. The degree of accuracy of this
cylinder varies by ± 7.5%. For more precise measurement, use scales calibrated in ounces.
SPRAY ADJUVANTS
Include a spray adjuvant with applications of DPX-M6316 SG. An ammonium nitrogen fertilizer may also be used. Do not
use low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution as a substitute for surfactant. Antifoaming agents may be used if needed.
Consult your Ag dealer or applicator, local DuPont fact sheets and technical bulletins prior to using an adjuvant system. If
another herbicide is tank mixed with DPX-M6316 SG, select adjuvants authorized for use with both products. Products
must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients (40 CFR 1001).
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
• Apply 0.06 to 0.50% volume/volume (1/2 pt to 4 pt per 100 gal of spray solution). For soybeans, apply 1 to 2 pints per
100 gallons of spray solution (use 1 pt under hot, humid conditions to reduce the potential for temporary crop injury).
• Surfactant products must contain at least 60% nonionic surfactant with a hydrophilic/lipophilic balance (HLB) greater
than 12.
12
Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) - Petroleum or Modified Seed Oil (MSO)
• Apply at 1% v/v (1 gal per 100 gal spray solution) or 2% under arid conditions. MSO adjuvants may be used at 0.5%
v/v if specified on local DuPont product literature or service policies. For soybeans, apply 1/2 gallon per 100 gallons of
spray solution (0.5%v/v).
• Oil adjuvants must contain at least 80% high quality, petroleum (mineral) or modified vegetable seed oil with at least
15% surfactant emulsifiers.
Special Adjuvant Types
• Combination adjuvant products may be used at doses that provide the required amount of NIS, COC, MSO and/or
ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. Consult product literature for use rates and restrictions.
• In addition to the adjuvants specified above, other adjuvant types may be used if they provide the same functionality and
have been evaluated and approved by DuPont product management. Consult separate DuPont technical bulletins for
detailed information before using adjuvant types not specified on this label.
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
• Use 2-4 qt/acre of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), including 28%N or 32%N, or 2-4 lb/acre of a spray-
grade ammonium sulfate (AMS). Use 4 qt/acre UAN or 4 lb/acre AMS under arid conditions.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use with spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below pH 5.0 or above pH 9.0, as rapid product
degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 6.0 - 8.0 allow for optimum stability of DPX-M6316 SG.
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water.
2. While agitating, add the required amount of DPX-M6316 SG.
3. Continue agitation until the DPX-M6316 SG is fully dispersed, at least 5 minutes.
4. Once the DPX-M6316 SG is fully dissolved, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with water. DPX-M6316 SG must
be thoroughly mixed with water before adding any other material.
5. As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners (if desired) then add the required volume of spray adjuvant. Always add spray
adjuvant last. Antifoaming agents may be used. Do not use with spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below
pH 6.0 as rapid product degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 7.0 and higher allow for optimum stability of DPX-
M6316 SG.
6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling will occur before product is fully dissolved. If settling occurs, thoroughly
re-agitate before using and make sure product is completely dissolved.
7. Apply DPX-M6316 SG spray mixture within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
8. If DPX-M6316 SG and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads, predissolve the DPX-M6316 SG in clean water
prior to adding to the tank. This will prevent the tank mix partner from interfering with the dissolution of the DPX-M6316
SG.
APPLICATION METHOD
Ground Application
For best performance, select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray. Nozzles that deliver COARSE spray
droplets may be used to reduce drift, provided spray volume is increased to maintain coverage on small weeds. For optimal
product performance and minimal spray drift, adjust the spray boom to the lowest possible spray height recommended in
manufacturers specifications. Refer to the SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT section of this label.
Overlaps or starting, stopping, slowing, and turning while spraying may result in crop injury.
Corn and Soybeans
Broadcast Application:
• Use 10-25 gallons of water per acre.
• Under heavy weed pressure or dense crop foliage, increase minimum spray volume to 15-25 gal per acre.
• Ensure that equipment is set up to avoid applying an excessive rate directly over the rows and into the corn plant whorl.
Band Application:
• For band applications, use proportionately less spray mixture.
• To avoid crop injury, carefully calibrate the band applicator to not exceed the labeled rate.
• Carefully follow the manufacturers instructions for nozzle type (flat fans), orientation, distance of nozzles from the crop
and weeds, spray volumes, calibration and spray pressure.
13
Burndown
For flat-fan nozzles, use a spray volume of at least 5 gal per acre (GPA).
For flood nozzles on 30" spacings, use at least 10 GPA, flood nozzles no larger than TK10 (or the equivalent), and a
pressure of at least 30 psi. For 40" nozzle spacings, use at least 13 GPA; for 60" spacings use at least 20 GPA. It is essential
to overlap the nozzles 100% for all spacings.
"Raindrop RA" nozzles are not recommended for DPX-M6316 SG applications, as weed control performance may be
reduced.
Use screens that are 50-mesh or larger.
Aerial Application
This product is limited to ground application only in the State of New York. Do not apply by air in that state.
Do not apply during a temperature inversion, when winds are gusty, or when conditions favor poor coverage and/or off-
target spray movement.
In burndown use 2 to 5 gallons per acre; use at least 3 gallons per acre in Idaho, Oregon and Utah. In corn and soybeans,
use a minimum of 5 gallons per acre.
When applying DPX-M6316 SG by air in areas adjacent to sensitive crops, use solid stream nozzles oriented straight back.
Adjust the swath to avoid spray drift damage to sensitive crops downwind and/or use ground equipment to treat the border
edge of fields. Refer to SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT section of this label.
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
For specific application equipment, refer to the manufacturers instructions for additional information on GPA, pressure, speed,
nozzle types and arrangements, nozzle heights above the target canopy, etc.
Be sure to calibrate air or ground equipment properly before application. Select a spray volume and delivery system that will
ensure thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern with minimum drift. Use higher spray volumes to obtain better coverage
when crop canopy is dense. Avoid swath overlapping, and shut off spray booms while starting, turning, slowing, or stopping, to
avoid injury to the crop. Do not make applications using equipment and/or spray volumes or during weather conditions that
might cause spray to drift onto nontarget sites. For additional information on spray drift refer to the "SPRAY DRIFT
MANAGEMENT" section of this label.
Continuous agitation may be required to keep tank-mix partners in solution or suspension. Refer to tank-mix partner labels for
additional information.
Before Spraying DPX-M6316 SG
The spray equipment must be cleaned before DPX-M6316 SG is sprayed. Follow the cleanup procedures specified on the
labels of the previously applied products. If no directions are provided, follow the six steps outlined in the "AFTER SPRAYING
DPX-M6316 SG " section of this label.
At the End Of the Day
When multiple loads of DPX-M6316 SG herbicide are applied, it is recommended that at the end of each day of spraying the
interior of the tank be rinsed with fresh water and then partially filled, and the boom and hoses flushed. This will prevent the
buildup of dried pesticide deposits, which can accumulate in the application equipment.
After Spraying DPX-M6316 SG and Before Spraying Crops Other than Field Corn and Soybeans
1. Empty the tank and drain the sump completely.
2. Spray the tank walls with clean water using a minimum volume of 10% of the tank volume. Circulate the water through
the lines, including all by-pass lines, for at least two minutes. Flush the boom well and empty the sprayer. Completely
drain the sump.
3. Repeat step 2.
4. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a bucket containing water.
The rinsate solution may be applied to the crop(s) specified on this label. Do not exceed the maximum-labeled use rate. If
cleaners are used, consult the cleaner label for rinsate disposal instructions. If no instructions are given, dispose of the
rinsate on site or at an approved waster disposal facility.
Notes:
1. Always start with a clean spray tank.
2. Steam-cleaning aerial spray tanks is recommended to facilitate the removal of any caked deposits.
3. When DPX-M6316 SG is tank mixed with other pesticides, all cleanout procedures for each product must be examined
and the most rigorous procedure must be followed.
14
4. In addition to this cleanout procedure, all pre-cleanout guidelines on subsequently applied products must be followed as
per the individual labels.
