5.0 GENERAL INFORMATION 
(HOW TillS PRODUCT WORKS) 
Product Description: This product is a postemergent, systemic herbicide with no soil residual acti\ity. It 
is generally non-selective and gives broad spectrum control of many annual weeds, perennial weeds, \voody 
brush and trees. It is fonnulated as a water-soluble liquid. It may be applied through most st2..TJ.dard 
industrial or field-type sprayers after dilution and thorough mixing \\ith water or other carriers according to 
label instructions. 
Do not add surfactants, additives containing surfactants, buffering agents or pH adjusting agents to the 
spray solution when MON 78128 is the only pesticide used. Amrr\orUum sulfate, drift control addio\·es, or 
dyes and colorants may be used. See the MIXING section of this label for instructions. 
Time to Symptoms: This product moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact to and into the 
root system Visible effects on most annual weeds occur within 2 to 4 days, but on most perennial weeds 
may not occur for 7 days or more. Extremely cool or cloudy weather following treatment may slow activity 
of this pr'1.duct 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 grO\\1b and deterioration of 
underground plant parts. 
MON 78128.doc 7 29-Mar-2000

( 
Stage of Weeds: Annual weeds are easiest to control when they are small. Best control of most perennial 
weeds is obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages approaching manrrity. Refer to the annual, 
perennial, woody brush and trees rate tables for recommendations for specific weeds. 
Always use the higher rate of this product per acre within the recommended range when weed growth is 
heavy or dense or weeds are growing in an undisturbed (noncultivated) area. 
Do not treat weeds under poor growing conditions such as drought stress, disease or insect damage, as 
reduced weed control may result. Reduced results may also occur when treating weeds heavily covered with 
dust. 
Cultural Considerations: Reduced control may result when applications are made to annual or perennial 
weeds that have been mowed, grazed, or cut, and have not been allowed to regrow to the recommended 
stage for treatment. 
Rainfastness: Heavy rainfall soon after application may wash this product off of the foliage and a repeat 
application may be required for adequate control. 
Spray Coverage: For best results, spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray weed 
foliage to the point of runoff. 
Mode of Action: The active ingredient in this product inhibits an enzyme found only in plants and 
microorganisms that is essential to formation of specific amino acids. 
No Soil Activity: Weeds must be emerged at the time of application to be controlled by this product. 
Weeds genninating from seed after application \\;11 not be controlled. Unemerged plants arising from 
unattached underground rhizomes or root stocks of perennials will not be affected by the herbicide and will 
continue to grow. 
When this product comes in contact with soil, it is bOlUld to soil particles. Under recommended use 
situations, once this product is bOllild to soil particles, it is not available for plant uptake and wiB not harm 
off-site vegetation where roots grow into the treated area or if the soil is transported off-site. The strong 
affinity of this product to soil particles prevents this product from leaching out of the soil profile and 
entering ground water 
Biological Degradation: Degradation of this product is primarily a biological process carried out by soil 
microbes. 
Volatility: MON 78128 is non-volatile. Therefore, it cannot move as a vapor after application to affect 
nearby vegetation. 
Toxicology Testing: Exposure to workers and other applicators generally is expected to pose minimal 
risks based on results of short-term toxicity studies. Glyphosate has been thoroughJy tested and determined 
not to cause cancer or other adverse long-term health effects. 
Tank Mixing: This product does not provide residual weed control. For subsequent residual weed control, 
follow a label-approved herbicide program. Read and carefully observe the cautionary statements and all 
other information appearing on the labels of all herbicides used. Use according to the most restrictive label 
directions for each product in the mixture. 
Buyer andall users are responsible for all loss or damage in connection with the use or handling of ntixtures 
of this product with herbicides or other materials that are not expressly recommended in this labeling. 
MON 78l28.doc 8 29-Mar-2000

( , 
Mixing this product with herbicides or other materials not recommended on this label may resuh in reduced 
performance. 
Annual Maximum Use Rate: Except as otherwise specified in a crop section of this label, the combined 
total of all treatments must not exceed 6 quarts of this product per acre per year. 
For noncrop uses, the combined total of all treatments must not exceed 8 quarts of this product per acre per 
year. 
The maximum use rates stated throughout this product's labeling apply to this product combined with the 
use of all other herbicides containing glyphosate or sulfosate as the active ingredieDL \vhether applied as 
mixtures or separately. Calculate the application rates and ensure that the total use of this and other 
glyphosate or sulfosate containing products does not exceed stated maximum use rate. 
ATTENTION 
AVOID CONTACf OF HERBICIDE WITH FOLIAGE, GREEN STEMS, EXPOSED NON-WOODY 
ROOTS OR FRUIT OF CROPS (EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED FOR INDIVIDUAL ROUNDUP READY 
CROPS), DESIRABLE PLANTS AND TREES, BECAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DESTRUCfIO); 
MAY RESULT. 
A VOID DRIFT. EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN APPLYING THIS PRODUCf 10 
PREVEl\'T INJURY TO DESIRABLE PLANTS AND CROPS. 
Do not allow the herbicide solution to mist, drip. drift or splash onto desirable vegetation since minute 
quantities of this product can cause severe damage or destruction to the crop, plants or other areas on which 
treatment was not intended. The likelihood of injury occurring from the use of this product increases wben 
winds are gusty, as wind velocity increases, when wind direction is constantly changing or when there are 
other meteorological conditions that favor spray drift. When spraying, avoid combinations of pressure and 
nozzle type that will result in splatter or fine particles (mist) which are likely to drift. A VOID APPLYll\G 
AI EXCESSIVE SPEED OR PRESSURE. 
NOTE: ese of this product in any malUler not consistent with this label may result in injury to persons. 
animals or crops, or other unintended consequences. Keep container closed to prevent spills and 
contamination. 
6.0 MIXI"G 
Clean sprayer parts immediately after using this product by thoroughly flushing with water. 
NOTE: REDUCED RESULTS MAY OCCUR IF WATER CONTAINING SOIL IS USED, SUCH.".5 
VISIBLY ~UDDY WATER OR WATER FROM PONDS AND DITCHES THAT IS );01 CLEAR. 
6.1 Mixing with Water 
This product mixes readily with water. Mix spray solutions of this product as follows: Fill the mixing or 
spray tank with the required amount of water. Add the recommended amount of this product near the end of 
the filling process and mix well. Use caution to avoid siphoning back into the carrier source. Use approved 
anti-back-Jiphoning devices where required by state or local regulations. During mixing and application, 
foaming of the spray solution may occur. To prevent or minimize foam, avoid the use of mechanical 
MON 78128.doc 9 29-Mar-2000

( 
agitators, terminate by-pass and return lines at the bottom of the tank and, if needed, use an approved anti­
foam or defoaming agent. 
6.2 Tank Mixing Procedure 
Mix labeled tank mixtures of this product with water as follows: 
I. Place a 20 to 35 mesh screen or wetting basket over filling port. 
2. Through the screen, fill the spray tank one-half full with water and start agitation. 
3. If a wettable powder is used. make a slurry with the water carrier. and add it SLOWLY through the 
screen into the tank. Continue agitation. 
4. If a flowable formulation is used. premix one part flowable with one part water. Add diluted mix"tUre 
SLOWLY through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation. 
5. If an emulsifiable concentrate formulation is used. premix one part emulsifiable concentrate with rwo 
parts water. Add diluted mixture slowly through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation. 
6. Continue filling the spray tank with water and add the required amount of this product near the end 
of the filling process. 
7. Add individual formulations to the spray tank as follows: wettable powder. flowable. emulsifiable 
concentrate, drift control additive and water soluble liquid. 
Maintain good agitation at all times until the contents of the tank are sprayed. If the spray mixture IS 
allowed to settle, thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before spraying is resumed. 
Keep by-pass line on or near the bottom of the tank to minimize foaming. Screen size in nozzle or line 
strainers should be no fmer than 50 mesh. 
Always predetermine the compatibility of labeled tank mixtures of this product with water carrier by mixmg 
small proportional quantities in advance. 
Refer to the "Tank Mixing" section of "GENERAL INFORMA TIOl'\"" for additional precautions.

( 
For use in knapsack sprayers, it is suggested that the recommended amount of this product be mixed with 
water in a larger container. Fill sprayer with the mixed solution. 
6.4 Ammonium Sulfate 
The addition of I to 2 percent dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 8.5 to 17 pounds per 100 gallons of 
water may increase the performance of this product, particularly when tank mixed with certain residual 
herbicides on annual and perennial weeds. The equivalent rate of ammonium sulfate in a liquid fonnulation

product may be made in arulUal cropping conventional tillage systems, fallow and reduc~d tillage systems 
and preharyest applications. Refer to the individual use area sections of this label for recormnended 
volumes and application rates. 
FOR AERLA.L APPLICATION IN CALIFORNIA OR ARKANSAS, REFER TO THE FEDERAL 
SUPPLEME"'TAL LABEL FOR AERIAL APPLICATIONS IN THAT STATE FOR SPECIFIC 
INSTRUCTIONS. RESTRICTIONS AND REQUIREMENTS. This product plus Banvel tank mixtures 
may not be applied by air in California. 
AERIAL SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target drift movement from 
aerial applications to agricultural field crops. 
1. The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed % the length of the wingspan or 
rotor. 
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and never be pointed downwards more 
than 45 degrees. Where states have more stringent regulations, they should be observed. 
Importance of droplet size 
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management 
strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and controL Applying larger 
droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under 
unfavorable environmental conditions (see the Wind, Temperatnre and Humidity, and Temperature 
Inversion sections of this label). 
Controlling droplet size 
MON 78128.doc 12 29-Mar-2000

• Volume: Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with the 
higher rated flows produce larger droplets. 
• Pressure: Use the lower spray pressures reconunended for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces 
droplet size and does not improve canopy protection. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher 
flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. 
• Number of nozzles: Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide unifonn coverage. 
• Nozzle orientation: Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released backwards, parallel to the 
airstream, will produce larger droplets than other orientations. Significant deflection from the 
horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. 
• 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. Solid stream nozzles 
oriented straight back produce larger droplets than other nozzle types. 
• Boom Length: For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 0/. of the 
wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width. 
• Application Height: Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of 
the largest plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the 
lowest height that is safe reduces the exposure of the droplets to eyaporation and wind. 
Swath Adjustment 
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displa~ed downward. Therefore, on the up 
and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for thts displacement by adjusting the 
path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase. with increasing drift potential 
(higher wind, smaller droplets, etc.). 
Wind 
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 to 10 mph. Howeve:. many faclOrs, including droplet size 
and equipment type detennine drift potential at any given speed. Applioation should be avoided below 2 
mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence v.ind 
patterns. E\;ery applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns ~nd hO\y they affect drift. 
Temperature and Humidity 
When making applications in low relative hwnidity, set up equipment 10 produce larger droplets to 
compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when ;:onditions are both hot and dry. 
Temperature inversions 
Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift pOlentJ.l is high. 
Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in 
a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds 
common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with 
altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the 
sun sets an<1.often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground 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 layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind 
MON 78128.doc 13 29-Mar-2000

conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good 
vertical air mixing. 
Sensitive areas 
The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential 
areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal 
(e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas). 
Avoid direct application to any body of water. 
AVOID DRIFT--DO NOT APPLY DURING LOW-LEVEL INVERSION CONDITIONS, WHEN 
WINDS ARE GUSTY OR UNDER ANY OTHER CONDITION WHICH FAVORS DRIFT. DRIFT 
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO ANY VEGETATION CONTACTED TO WHICH TREATMENT IS NOT 
INTENDED. TO PREVENT INJURY TO ADJACENT DESIRABLE VEGETATION, APPROPRIATE 
BUFFER ZONES MUST BE MAINTAINED. 
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift; therefore, do not use nozzles or nozzle configurations which dispense 
spray as fme spray droplets. Do not angle nozzles forward into the airstream and do not increase spray 
volume by increasing nozzle pressure. 
Ensure unifonn application-To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking 
devices. 
Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear, after each day of spraying to remove residues of this 
product accumulated during spraying or from spills. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO 
UNCOATED STEEL SURFACES MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND POSSIBLE FAILURE OF 
THE PART. LANDING GEAR ARE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE. The maintenance of an organic coating 
(paint), which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-384 I 3, may prevent corrosion. 
7.2 Ground Broadcast Equipment 
Use the reconunended rates of this product in 3 to 40 gallons of water per acre as a broadcast spray unless 
otherwise specified. As density of weeds increases, spray volume should be increased within the recom­
mended range to ensure complete coverage. Carefully select proper nozzles to avoid spraying a fme 
mist. For best results with ground application equipment, use flat fan nozzles. Check for even distribution of 
spray droplets. 
7.3 Hand-Held and High-Volume Equipment 
Apply to foliage of vegetation to be controlled. For applications made on a spray-to-wet basis, spray 
coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray to the point of runoff. C se coarse sprays only. 
For control of weeds listed in the annual weeds rate tables, apply a 0.5 percent solution of this product to 
weeds less than 6 inches in height or runner length. Apply prior to seedhead formation in grass or bud 
formation in broadleaf weeds. For annual weeds over 6 inches tall, or unless otherwise specified, use a 1 
percent solution. 
For best results, use a 2 percent solution on harder-to-control perennials, such as bennudagrass, dock, field 
bindweed,hemp dogbane, milkweed and Canada thistle. 
MON 78128.doc 14 29-Mar-2000

( 
When using application methods which result in less than complete coverage, use a 5 percent solution for 
annual and perennial weeds and a 5 to 7.5 percent solution for woody brush and trees. 
7.4 Selective Equipment 
This product may be applied through recirculating spray systems, shielded applicators, hooded sprayers, 
wiper applicators or sponge bars after dilution and thorough mixing with water to listed weeds growing in 
any noncrop site specified on this label and only when specifically reconnnended in cropping systems. 
A recirculating spray system directs the spray solution onto weeds growing above desirable vegetation, 
while spray solution not intercepted by weeds is collected and returned to the spray tank for reuse. 
A shielded or hooded applicator directs the herbicide solution onto weeds, while shielding desirable 
vegetation ftom the herbicide. 
A wiper or sponge applicator applies the herbicide solution onto weeds by rubbing the weed with an 
absorbent material containing the herbicide solution. 
AVOID CONTACT OF HERBICIDE WITH DESIRABLE VEGETATION. 
Contact of the herbicide solution with desirable vegetation may result in damage or destruction. Applicators 
used above desirable vegetation should be adjusted so that the lowest spray stream or wiper contact point is 
at least 2 inches above the desirable vegetation. Droplets, mist, foam or splatter of the herbicide solution 
settling on desirable vegetation may result in discoloration. stunting or destruction. 
Applications made above the crops should he made when the weeds are a minimum of 6 inches above the 
desirable vegetation. Better results may be obtained when more of the weed is exposed to the herbicide 
solution. Weeds not contacted by the herbicide solution will not be affected. This may occur in dense 
clumps, severe infestations or when the height of the weeds varies so that Dot all weeds are contacted. In 
these instances, repeat treatment may be necessary. 
Shielded and hooded applicators 
Use nozzles that provide unifonn coverage within the ueated area. Keep shields on these sprayers adjusted 
to protect desirable vegetation. EXTRE"lE CARE ML'ST BE EXERCISED TO AVOID CONTACT OF 
HERBICIDE WITH DESIRABLE VEGETATIO"\;. 
A hooded sprayer is a type of shielded applicator. The spray pattern is completely enclosed on the top and 
all 4 sides by a hood, thereby shielding the crop ftom the spray solution. This equipment must be set up and 
operated in a manner that avoids bouncing or raising the hoods off the ground in any way. If the hoods are 
raised, spray particles may escape and come into contact with the crop, causing damage or destruction of 
the crop. The spray hoods must be operated on the ground or skimming across the groWld. Tractor speed 
must be adjusted to avoid bouncing of the spray hoods. Avoid operation on rough or sloping ground where 
the spray hoods might be raised off the ground. 
Wiper applicators and sponge bars 
Wiper applicators are devices that physically wipe appropriate amounts of this product directly onto the 
weed. 
Equipmeni must be designed, maintained and operated to prevent the herbicide solution from contacting 
desirable vegetation. Operate this equipment at ground speeds no greater than 5 mph. Performance may be 
MON 78128.doc 15 29-Mar-2000 
0330;0134

improved by reducing speed in areas of heavy weed infestations to ensure adequate wiper saturation. Better 
results may be obtained if 2 applications are made in opposite directions. 
A void leakage or dripping onto desirable vegetation. Adjust height of applicator to ensure adequate contact 
with weeds. Keep wiping surfaces clean. Be aware that, on sloping ground, the herbicide solution may 
migrate, causing dripping on the lower end and drying of the wicks on the upper end of a wiper applicator. 
Do not use wiper equipment when weeds are wet. 
Mix only the amount of solution to be used during a I-day period, as reduced activity may result from use 
of leftover solutions. Clean wiper parts inunediately after using this product by thoroughly flushing with 
water. 
Do not add surfactant to the herbicide solution.

MIDWESTI MID-ATLANTIC RECOMMENDATIONS 
Narrow row or drilled soybeans: A single in-crop application of this product will provide effective 
control of labeled weeds. For best results, an initial application of I quart per acre, on 4 - 8" weeds is 
recommended. Weeds will generally be 4 - 8" tall 3 to 5 weeks after planting. If the initial application is 
delayed and weds are 8 - 18" tall, use 1.5 quarts per acre for best results. 
Under adverse growing conditions such as drought, hail, wind damage or a poor soybean stand that slows 
or delays canopy closure, a sequential application of this product at 24 to 32 fluid ounces per acre may 
be necessary to control late flushes of weeds. 
Wide row soybeans: An in-crop application of this product will provide effective control of the initial 
stand of labeled weeds. For best results, an initial application of 1 quart per acre, on 4 - 8" weeds is 
recommended. Weeds will generally be 4 - 8" tall 3 to 5 weeks after planting. If new flushes of weeds 
occur, they can be controlled by sequential applications of this product.

10.4 Habitat Management 
TYPES OF USES: Habitat restoration and maintenance. wildlife food plots 
Habitat restoration and maintenance 
USE INSTRUCTIONS: This product may be used to control exotic and other undesirable vegetation in 
habitat management areas. Applications can be made to anow recovery of native plant species, prior to 
planting desirable native species, and for similar broadspectruru vegetanon control requirements in habitat 
management areas. Spot treatments C3n be made to selectively remove unwanted plants for habitat 
maintenance and enhancement. The tank mixtures listed in this section of the label may be used for habitat 
restoration and maintenance.

MON 78l28.doc 46 29-Mar-2000

10.5 Rangelands 
TYPES OF APPLICATIONS: Postemergence 
USE INSTRUCTIONS: This product will control or suppress many annual weeds growing in perennial 
cool and wann season grass rangelands. 
Preventing viable seed production is key to the successful control and invasion of annual grassy weeds in 
rangelands. Follow-up applications in seqnential years should eliminate most of the viable seeds. 
Grazing of treated areas should be delayed to encourage growth of desirable perennials. Allowing 
desirable perennials to flower and reseed in the treated area will encourage successful transition. 
PRECAUTIONS, RESTRICTIONS: Do not use ammonium sulfate when spraying rangeland grasses with 
this product. Do not make more than one application per year. 
Postemergence 
Apply 12-16 fluid ounces of this product to control or suppress many weeds, including downy brome, cheat 
grass, cereal rye and jointed goatgrass in rangelands. Apply when most mature brome plants are in early 
flower and before the plants including seedheads turn color. Allowing for secondary weed flushes to occur 
in the spring following rain events further depletes the seed reserve, and encourages perennial grass 
conversion on weedy sites. Fall applications are possible, and recommended where spring moisture is 
usually limited and fall germination allows for good weed growth. 
Apply 16 fluid Ounces when the medusahead has reached the 3 leaf stage. Delaying applications beyond this 
stage will result in reduced or unacceptable control. Fire may be useful in eliminating the thatch layer 
produced by slow decaying culms prior to application. Allow new growth to occur before spraying after a 
burn. Repeat applications in subsequent years may be necessary to eliminate the seedbank before 
reestablishing desirable perennial grasses in medusahead dominated rangelands. 
Slight discoloration of the desirable grasses may occur, but they will regreen and regrow under moist soil 
conditions as effects of this product wear off. 
11.0 ANNUAL WEEDS RATE TABLE 
ALPHABETICALLY BY SPECIES 
Water carrier volwnes of 3 to 10 gallons per acre for ground applications and 3 to 5 gallons per acre for 
aerial applications are recommended. 
Apply to actively growing annual weeds. Annual weeds are generally easiest to control when they are smaiL 
Older, mature (hardened) annual weed species may require higher rates even if they meet the size 
requirements. 
Do not tank mix with soil residual herbicides when using these rates uuless otherwise specified. 
For weeds that have been mowed, grazed or cut, allow regrowth to occur prior to treatment. 
For those ra.t.es less than 40 fluid ounces per acre, this product may be used up to 40 fluid ounces per acre 
where heavy weed densities exist.

13.0 WOODY BRUSH AND TREES RATE TABLE 
Apply this product after full leaf expansion, unless otherwise directed. Use the higher rate for larger plants 
and/or dense areas of growth. On vines, use the higher rate for plants that have reached the woody stage of 
growth. Best results are obtained when application is made in late summer or fall after fruit formation. 
In arid areas, best results are obtained when applications are made in the spring to early summer when brush 
species are at high moisture content and are flowering. 
Ensure thorough coverage when using hand-held equipment. Symptoms may not appear prior to frost or 
senescence with fall treatments. 
Allow 7 or more days after application before tillage, mowing or removal. Repeat treatments may be 
necessary to control plants regenerating from underground parts or seed. Some autumn colors on 
undesirable deciduous species are acceptable provided no major leaf drop has occurred. Reduced 
performance may result if fall treatments are made following a frost.

AVOID DRIFT -DO NOT APPLY 
WHEN WINDS ARE GUSTY 
OR UNDER ANY OTHER CON­
DITION WHICH FAVORS DRIFT. 
DRIFT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE 
TO ANY VEGETATION CON­
TACTED TO WHICH TREAT­
MENT IS NOT INTENDED. TO 
PREVENT INJURY TO ADJACENT 
DESIRABLE VEGETATION, 
APPROPRIATE BUFFER 
ZONES MUST BE MAIN-
TAINED. 
Use the following guidelines 
when aerial applications are 
( . made near crops or desirable 
perennial vegetation after bud 
break and before total leaf drop, 
and/or near other desirable 
vegetation or annual crops. 
1. Do not apply within 100 feet of a II 
desirable vegetation or 
crop(s). 
2. If wind up to 5 miles per hour is 
blowing toward desirable 
vegetation or crop(s), do not 
apply within 500 feet of the de­
sirable vegetation or crop(s). 
3. Winds blowing from 5 to 10 miles 
per hour toward desirable 
vegetation or crop(s) may re­
quire buffer zones in excess of 
500 feet. 
4. Do not apply when winds are in 
excess of 10 miles per hour or 
when inversion conditions exist. 
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift; 
therefore, do not use nozzles or 
nozzle configurations which dis­
pense spray as fine spray drop­
lets. Do not angle nozzles 
forward into the air-stream and 
do not increase spray volume 
by increasing nozzle pressure. 
Drift control additives may be used. 
When a drift control additive is 
used, read and carefully observe 
the cautionary statements and all 
other information appearing on 
the additive label." 
Ensure uniform application-To 
avoid streaking, uneven, or over­
lapped application, use appro­
priate marking devices. 
Thoroughly wash aircraft, 
especially landing gear, after 
each day of spraying to remove 
residues of this product accu­
mulated during spraying or 
from spills. PROLONGED 
EXPOSURE OF THIS PROD­
UCT TO UNCOATED STEEL 
SURFACES MAY RESULT IN 
CORROSION AND POSSIBLE 
FAILURE OF THE PART. 
LANDING GEAR IS MOST 
SUSCEPTIBLE. The mainte­
nance of an organic coating 
(paint) which meets aerospace 
specification MIL-C-38413 may 
prevent corrosion.

EXPOSED NON·WOODY ROOTS 
OR FRU IT OF CROPS, DESIRABlE 
PlANTS AND TREES, BECAUSE 
SEVERE INJURY OR 
DESTROCTION MAY RESULT. 
See the 'GENERAL INFORMA· 
TION" and "MIXING" sections

USE DIRECTIONS 
AVOID DRIFT. DO NOT 
APPLY INTO STILL AIR 
WHERE THERE IS A 
TEMPERTURE INVERSION 
LAYER LOW ENOUGH FOR 
FINE SPRAY PARTICLES TO 
BECOME "!;USPENDED AND 
MOVE OUTSIDE THE 
TARGET AREA WHEN THE 
INVERSION LAYER MOVES. 
DO NOT APPL Y WHEN The distance of the 
WINDS ARE GUSTY OR outermost nozzles on the

TO PREVENT INJURY TO wingspan or rotor will 
ADJACENT DESIRABLE improve drift control without 
VEGETATION, affecting the swath width. 
APPROPRIATE BUFFER 
ZONES MUST BE MAIN· 
TAINED. 
Use the recommended rate 
of this product in 3 to 15 
gallons of water per acre. 
Use sufficient carrier volume 
and appropriate equipment 
set·up to form droplets large 
enough to avoid drift 
potential. Coarse droplets in 
the 300 to 500 (VMD) micron 
range are recommended. 
Applications should typically 
be made with the nozzle 
release point at 8 to 15 feet 
above the top of the target 
plants unless a greater 
height is required for aircraft 
safety 
0860;0134 
Nozzles must always 
discharge backward parallel 
with the air stream and 
never discharge downwards 
more than 45 degrees on 
fixed wing aircraft or forward 
of the prevailing air flow on 
rotary winged aircraft. Avoid 
the use of nozzles with wide 
angle discharge. 
Do not apply this product 
when winds are in excess of 
10 miles per hour. 
Do not apply when there is a 
low·level inversion where 
fine spray particles could be 
suspended in still air and 
move outside the target area 
when the inversion layer 
moves. These conditions 
may occur when wind speeds 
are less than 2 mph.

( 
Use the following guidelines 
when applications are made 
near crops or other desirable 
vegetation: 
1. Do not apply within 100 feet of 
any desirable vegetation 
or crops. 
2. If wind up to 5 miles per hour is 
blowing toward desirable 
vegetation or crops, do not 
apply within 500 feet upwind 
of the desirable vegetation or 
crops. 
3. Winds blowing from 5 to 10 
miles per hour toward 
desirable vegetation or 
crops will likely require 
buffer zones in excess of 500 
feet.
