GENERAL INFORMATION i Weather conditions and plant conditions affej· conditions that favor good defoliation are hig humidity, low wind velocity, high to adequate ; conditions which favor good defoliation are a~ moisture, complete insect control. Nutrients s too much nitrogen. LEAVES SHOULD BE GR (NOT WILTED, TOUGHENED OR STUNNED! foliation. Weather ,perature, high f· oisture. Plant fertility and be ample but not . AND TURGID I LACK OF FERTILIZERS). 3 LB. CHLORATE DEFOLIANT DESICCA~j ly be applied by aircraft or ground equipment. It is important th ~e foliage be uniformly and thoroughly covered. The specifi . ilution rates should be carefully observed. A nonionic surfactant co ining 80% or more surface active agent, such as INDUCE® at the: Je of 1/4 to 1/2% vlv concentration may enhance results. Or, the addItion of a nonionic crop oil concentrate containing 80·85% petroleum or vegetable based oil and 15-20% emulsifier, such as AGRI·DEX"', can be used at the rate of 1/2·1 % v/v. ~ MATURITY· Boll load heavy, all bolls mature, i jetative growth ceased, little or no second growth. Conditions Y ,ch contribute to poor defoliation are those adverse to the above DIRECTIONS CHILIPEPPERS· Apply 1 to 2-1/2 gallons per acre in 5 to 15 gallons of water by aircraft and 20 to 40 gallons of water by ground rig. To be used on peppers for processing only. Apply 10 days before harvest. When grown for processing, consult a processor before applying. CORN·3 LB. SODIUM CHLORATE may be used as a harvest aid for desiccation of trashy weeds in early maturing corn. Use 2 gallons 3 LB, SODIUM CHLORATE in 5 to 7 gallons of water per acre by air. Apply at least 14 days before antiCipated harvest date on clear days when temperature is expected to go above 700 F. Use the 5 gallon rate when weeds are small and the crop canopy is fairly open. NOTE: DO NOT graze treated fields or feed fodder, forage or residual seeds within 14 days of application. .. COTTON: Defoliation· Apply 2 to 3 weeks prior to anticipated picking date. Do not treat later than 7 to 10 days prior to harvest. Thorough coverage of the plant is essential. A second application may be required under some conditions. AIRPLANE APPLICATION· 1 to 1-112 gals. per acre in sufficient water to make 5 to 10 gals. total solution per acre. Use the lower rate when plants and weather conditions are ideal for defoliation. Swath width should not exceed wing spread: altitude and speed of aircraft should be regulated to give spray coverage. Do not apply during periods of excessive wind as spray may drift and cause defoliation of adjoining cotton or injury to other crops. Do not apply during very high temperature found in some areas at mid-clay. GROUND MACHINE APPLICATION: 1 to 1-1/2 gals. per acre in sufficient water to make 20 to 30 gals. total solution per acre. Usually 6 to 8 nozzles per row are necessary to obtain good coverage of all leaves. Flush out equipment with water after each day's work. Cotton defoliants should be applied when 70% of the bolls are open. Poor defoliation often occurs under unfavorable weather, soil moisture, fertility and plant conditions. Uniform defoliation within a field may sometimes be difficult to obtain because of irregular plant maturity. Satisfactory defoliation may not be obtained when cotton plants are suffering from lack of moisture or when plant growth is retarded by cold weather. Do not graze treated areas or feed gin waste to livestock. DRY BEANS: Apply at a rate of 2 gallons per acre in 5 to 10 gallons of water by air or IOta 20 gallons of water by ground equipment. Thorough coverage is essential. Make application 7 • 10 days before anticipated harvest, longer if temperatures are cool. DO NOT graze treated fields or feed trealed fodder or forage to livestock. FLAX· For Use As A Harvest Aid: To desiccate trashy weeds and desiccate the mature crop, apply 2 gallons 3 LB. SODIUM CHLORATE per acre in enough water to give thorough coverage. Make application on bright, sunny days (preferably when temperature is above 600 F.) 7 to 10 daysbefore anticipated harvest date. For air application, use minimum of 5 gallons ready·ta-apply material per acre. Activity of the spray will be enhanced by the addition of a good nonionic surfactant at the rate of 1 quart per 100 gallons of spray. DO NOT graze treated fields or feed treated flax foliage or fodder for 14 days after application. GRAIN SORGHUM: As a desiccant: apply 1-112 to 2 gallons per acre in 12 to 15 gallons of water 7 to 10 days before harvest.

GUAR BEANS - To facilitate harvest and reduce bean seed moisture: apply 2 gallons of 3 LB. SODIUM CHLORATE in enough water to provide thorough coverage either by aircraft or ground equipment. Make application 7-10 days before anticipated harvest date. Do not apply under conditions of extreme heat during the middle of the day. For air application, use 5-10 gallons of total solution per acre; for ground application use a minimum of 20 gallons of total solution per acre. NOTE: DO NOT graze treated fields or feed treated fodder or forage to livestock. RICE - To facilitate harvest and reduce moisture in the fully mature seed heads, and to desiccate immature red rice In mature white rice: apply by air 1-1/4 to 2 gallons per acre in 5 or more gallons of waler. Use the lower rate when crop conditions and weather are right to enhance rapid drying. Make application 7 to 10 days before anticipated harvest date. To avoid drift do not apply during windy weather. Thorough coverage of the crop is essential to achieve good results. DO NOT graze treated fields or feed treated straw or crop residues within 14 days of application. SAFFLOWERS - To facilitate harvest and reduce moisture in the fully mature seed heads: apply 2 gallons in 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre by air or in 20 to 30 gallons by ground equipment. Make application 7 or more days before normal harvest when safflower heads are fully mature. SOUTHERN PEAS - Apply at a rate of 2 gallons per acre in 5 to 10 gallons of water by air or 10 to 20 gallons by ground equipment. Thorough coverage is essential. Make application 7 to 10 days before anticipated harvest, longer if temperatures are cool. DO NOT graze treated fields or feed treated fodder or forage to livestock. SOYBEANS: As a soybean harvest aid to dry weeds in early maturing soybeans and to facilitate the harvest: apply 2 gallons of 3 LB. SODIUM CHLORATE per acre in enough water 10 give thorough coverage; application may be made by ground equipment or aircraft. Make application 7 to 10 days before anticipated harvesting date when beans are mature and ready for harvest. For air application use a minimum of 5 gallons ready-la-apply spray solution per acre; for ground equipment apply a minimum of 20 gallons of ready-ta-apply spray solution per acre. Do not graze treated fields or feed treated soybean foliage. SUNFLOWER -To facilitate harvest and reduce moisture in the fully mature seed heads: apply 2 gallons in sufficient water to give good coverage. Make application 7 or more days before normal harvest when sunflower heads are fully mature. Apply in 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre by air or in 20 to 30 gallons of water per acre by ground with a high clearance sprayer. Do not apply later than 7 days before harvest. DO NOT graze treated fields or feed treated forage within 14 days of application. MIXING: Agitate 3 LB. SODIUM CHLORATE DEFOLIANT­ DESICCANT in water until completely dissolved. Use mechanical agitator.
