Herbicides may not always mix evenly throughout a sprayable fluid
fertilizer or the components may separate too quickly to make
their combined use of practical value. This may be due to certain
characteristics of the different fluid fertilizers. A si.ple test
using small quantities of the components is sugge.ted to provide
compatibility potential.

Five minutes after the final addition and mixing, observe both

precipitates. Observe if the herbicide(s) cannot be physically
mix.d with the liquid fertilizer but reaains as saall oily
particles in the solution.

If incoapatibility in any fora described above occurs in the jar
"with" the coapatibility agent added. the liquid fertilizer and
the herbicide(s) should not be used togelher in the sa .. spr.y

If incoapatibiiity--as described above occurs in the jar-
"without" the adjuvant but not in the jar "with" adjuvant,
the use of a coapatibility adjuvant is recommended.
80th jars should be allowed to stand and be observed period~.lly
for one-half hour. If the separate layers of liquid fertilizer
and additives can be resuspended by shaking, co_rcial
application is po.sible. Wettable powder. will either settle to
the bottom of the tank or jar, or float to the tljP, depending
upon the density of the fertilizers.
If this product is compatible with fluid fertilizer in the
foregoiny test without having to us. a compatibility ag.nt, fluid
fertilizer say be u.ed for the preaixing. If it is not coapatible
the herbicide(.) sbould be preaixed with water before adding to

This herbicide aixture is raco_ended for control of aany annual
grasse. and certain broadleaf weeds. For best re.ult. it shuuld
be applied to the soil .urface before crop or weeds _erge. The
seedbed should be fine, fira and free of clods and trash;
application should be aade within 5 days after the last tillage
for weed control. Do not apply when conditions favor drift. Soae
moisture, either as rain or irrigation, is required soon after
application to activate this herbicide mixture. On coarse texture
soil 1/3 incb of rainfall, and on aediwa and fine textured
and/or high organic soils 1/3 to 3/4 incb of rainfall is
required depending upon original soil woisture. Better results
are obtained when moisture occurs within 10 days after
~pplication. Generally, lower aaounts of rainfall are required
when soil woisture is high at tiae of planting.
NOTE: Use of this product in any aanner not consistent with this
label may result in injury to persons, animals or crops, or

1. If the her~icid.(s) and th. sprayabl. fluid f.rtiliz.r are
compatibl ••
2. If a coapatibility agent is n.cessary.
Fiv. ainut.s after the final addition and fixing, obs.rve both
jars for the for.ation of large flak.s, sludg., g.ls or other
precipitates. Observe if th. herbicid.(s) cannot be physically
aixed with th. liquid fertiliz.r but remains as s .. ll oily
particl.s in th. solution.
If incompatibility in any fo~ d.scribed above occurs in th. j&r
"with" th. coapatibility agent added, th. liquid fertiliz.r and
th. herbicid.(s) should not be used together in th. saae spray
tank.
If "incompatibility as desc~bed above occurs in.the jar
"without" the adjuvant but "not in the jar "with'" adjuvant,
the"use ef a coapatibility adjuvant is r.comm.nded.
"". \ ....
Both jars should be allowed to stand and be observed periodically
for one-half hour. If the separate layers of liquid f.rtilizer
and additiv.s can be resuspended by shaking, ca.aercial
application is possible. Wettable powders will either settle to
the botto. of th. tank or jar, or float to the top, depending
upon the density of the fertilizers.
If this product i. coapatible with fluid fertilizer in the
foregoing test without having to use a coapatibility agent, fluid
fertilizer aay be used for the preaixing. If it is not compatible
the herbicide(s) should be preaixed with water before ad~ing to
the spray tank.

This herbicide aixture is reco .. ended for control of ~ny annual
grasses and certain broad leaf weeds. For best results it should
be applied to the soil surface before crop or weeds e.erqe. The
seedbed should be fine, firm and free of clods and trash;
application should be made within 5 days after the last tillaqe "~' •.
for weed~control. Do not apply when conditions favo~drift. So ..
moisture, either as rain or irriqation, is required soon after
application to activate this herbicide mixture. On coarse texture
soil 1/3 inch of rainfall, and on medium and fine textured
and/or hiqh orqanic soils 1/3 to 3/4 incb of rainfall is
required dependinq upon oriqinal soil moisture. Better results
are obtained when moisture occurs within 10 days after
application. Generally, lower aaounts of rainfall are required
when soil moisture is hiqh at tiae of plantinq.
