GENERAL INFORMATION Product Description: This product provides postemergence. systemic control of many annual grasses and broadleaf weeds and suppression of perennial weeds in Roundup Ready® corn. The product will also provide residual control of selected grasses. This product can be applied postemergence to Roundup Ready corn from seedling emergence until the corn reaches I J inches in height. A single in-crop application of this product is not to exceed 2.0 quarts per acre. Make a single application of this product only to com hybrids designated as containing the Roundup Ready gene. Applying this product to corn bybrids which are not designated as Roundup Ready will result in severe crop injury and yield loss. The Roundup Ready designation indicates that the corn contains a patented gene which provides tolerance to this herbicide. Information on Roundup Ready corn may be obtained from your seed supplier or Monsanto Representative. The product is formulated as a emulsion in water (EW). It may be applied through most standard industrial or field-type sprayers after dilution and thorough mixing with water according to label instructions. Time to Symptoms: This product moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact to and into tbe root system. Visible effects on most annual weeds occur within 2 to 4 days. but on most perennial weeds may nO! occur for 7 days or more. Extremely cool or cloudy weather following treatment may slow activity of this product and delay development of visual symptoms. Visible effects are a gradual wilting and yellowing of the plant which advances to complete browning of above-ground growth and deterioration of underground plant pans. For preemergence activity moisture in the form of rainfall or irrigation is required after application to move this proouct into the weed gennination zone. The amount of moisture requjred depends on the soil moisture content at the time of application. soil type. and plant residues. Performance is improved when 1/3 to 10 incb of moisture is received within one week after application and prior to weed emer$ence. High intensity or excessive rainfall or irrigation after application may reduce preemergence weed c:<'IJ!10j' on coarse soils. . .... • .... Stage of Weeds: Annual weeds are easiest to control when they are small (2-4 inc~'ll'Hl. Apply the product prior to when weeds become competitive with the corn.

Maintain good agitation at all times until the contents of the tank are sprayed. Maintain good agitation at all times until the contents of the tank are sprayed. NOTE: If spray mixture is allowed to settle at any time. thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before spraying is resumed. Keep bypass line on or near bottom of tank to minimize foaming. Screen size in nozzle or line strainers should be no finer than 50 mesh. Carefully select proper nozzle to avoid spraying a fine mist. Check for even distribution of spray droplets. For best results with ground application, use flat fan or whirl-chamber nozzle. To reduce loss of chemical due to drift of a fine mist, apply at pressures less than 4{) psi. MIX ONLY WITH CLEAN WATER. Reduced weed control may occur if muddy water is used, such as water from ponds or ditches. Due to crop injury, it is not recommended that pestemergence applications of this product be made to Roundup Ready corn using fluid fertilizer as the carrier because severe crop injury may occur. Adding surfactants. additives containing surfactants, micronutrients, and liquid fertilizers are NOT recommended as crop injury may occur. Tank mixes with products other than those included in this label are not recommended. Ammonium Sulfate - The addition of ammonium sulfate in the spray solution may increase the performance of this product on emerged annual weeds under adverse growing conditions. Wben using ammonium sulfate. add I to 2 percent dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 8.5 to 17 pounds per 100 gallons of water. Ammonium sulfate should be added 10 the water in the spray tank and completely dissolved prior to adding herbicide. The equivalent rate of ammonium sulfate in a liquid formulation may also be used. If ammonium sulfate is added directly to.me spray tank, add slowly with agitation. Adding too quickly may clog outlet lines. Nozzle tip plugging may result from the use of low-quality ammonium sulfate.

) NOTE: For hard-tcrcontrol weeds, additional amounts of Harness® herbicide and/or atrazine may be added to the recommended treatment rates for this product to provide improved residual control from a postemergence application in Roundup Ready corn. For more consistent control of cornman cocklebur, annual morningglory or velvetleaf, atrazine may be applied so that the total atrazine is at least 1.5 Ib active ingredient per acre on medium textured soils with less that 3 percent organic matter, and 1.5 to 2 Ib active ingredient per acre on medium and fine textured soils with 3 percent or greater organic matter. Atrazine up to a maximum rate of 2 Ibs. active ingredients per acre can be applied postemergence. Up to 2 quarts of alrazine 4L per acre (or 2.2 Ibs. per acre of atrazine 9ODF) could be applied with this product. If additional postemergence alrazine treatment is to be applied following an earlier atrazine application, the total alrazine applied may not exceed 2.5 Ibs. active ingredient per acre per calendar year. NOTE: The maximum application rate of atrazine is 2.5 pounds active ingredient per acre per calendar year (2.5 quarts per acre atrazine 4L). On highly erodible soils (as defined by the Soil Conservation Service with less than 30 percent residue cover, the maximum rate of atrazine is 1.6 pounds active ingredient (1.6 quarts per acre of atrazine 4LJ. On soils nor highly erodible or on highly erodible soils with more than 30 percent plant residue cover, the maximum rate of atrazine is 2 pounds active ingredient per acre (2 quans per acre of atrazine 4L).
