ENGINEERING CONTROL STATEMENTS Pilots must use an enclosed cockpit that meets the requirements listed in the WPS for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR 170.240(d)(6))..

USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS Users should  Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, u sing tobacco or using the toilet.  Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clot hing.  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.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This product is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to a quatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash waters or r insate.

This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater contamination. Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater.

Groundwater Contamination: Most cases of groundwater contamination involving p henoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D have been associated with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-D pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for m ixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater contamination.

This product may cause injury to desirable plants b y contacting foliage, stems or roots. Use care in all applications to avoid surface water or soil transport to nontarget plant areas. Avoid contamination of irrigation or domestic water supplies. Although this product is a low volatile formulation, at high temperatures (about 85 degrees or higher), vapors from this product may injure susceptible plants gro wing nearby such as cotton, grapes, tobacco, fruittrees, legumes, vegetables, and ornamentals. Avoid applications in the vicinity of susceptible plants or when winds are blowing toward nearby susceptible plants or when temperature inversions are expected. Avoid direct application or spray drift to susceptible plants since very small quantities of this herbicide can cause severe injury in the growing or dormant period. Plants contacted may be killed or suffer significant injury resulting in grade or yield losses. Do not apply in greenhouses.

Filename: Barrage HF (5905-529) 031821 CLN.doc 3 The following steps may be helpful in reducing possible spray drift from ground or aerial applications:

  1. keep the spray discharge as near to the target a s possible while getting good coverage,
  2. increase the volume of spray mixture per acre,
  3. use low spraying pressures (as measured at the n ozzle tips),
  4. use nozzles which produce coarse spray droplets while still providing adequate weed coverage,
  5. limit applications when wind is blowing toward n earby susceptible crops or valuable plants,
  6. make applications when wind velocity is more fav orable for on-target deposition - a general guide for application would be a) wind velocity of 0-2 mph may indicate a temperature inversion which can permit drift; b) wind velocity of 3-7 mph usually indicates good conditions, but check wind direction relative to nearby susceptible crops always allowing for wind shift, c) wind velocity 7-10 mph is acceptable if wind direction is favorable and no susceptible crops are in the vicinity always allowing for wind shift, d) wind velocity of 10-15 mph is usually not desirable except in areas of stronger prevailing winds when direction is favorable and no susceptible crops are in the vicinity always allowing for wind shift; an agriculturally accepted drift retardant is suggested, and e) if wind velocity is over 15 mph do not spray,
  7. properly maintain and calibrate all spray equipm ent,
  8. for aerial applications, use an effective spray boom length that is no more than 75% of the wingspan or 90% of rotor diameter, and
  9. use an agriculturally accepted drift retardant d esigned to increase droplet size.

CHEMIGATION PROHIBITION Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

FOR ALL TANK MIXTURES: It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use.

Filename: Barrage HF (5905-529) 031821 CLN.doc 5 RESISTANCE-MANAGEMENT STATEMENTS

For resistance management, BARRAGE HF is a Group 4 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or devel op plants naturally resistant to BARRAGE HF and other Group 4 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate resistance managemen t strategies should be followed.

To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:  Rotate the use of BARRAGE HF or other Group 4 herb icides within a growing season sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.

 Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use is permitted; where information on resistance in target weed species is available, use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that will control the target weed(s) equally as well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local extension service or certified crop advisor if you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently less prone to resistance.

 Adopt an integrated weed-management program for he rbicide use that includes scouting and uses historical information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage (or other mechanical control methods), cultural ( e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application method and timi ng to favor the crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices.

 Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance developme nt. Indicators of possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; (3) surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the sam e species. If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed production in the affected area by an alternative herbicide from a different group or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage. Prevent movement of resistant wee d seeds to other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.

 If a weed pest population continues to progress af ter treatment with this product, discontinue use of this product, and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available.

 Contact your local extension specialist or certifi ed crop advisors for additional pesticide resistanc e-management and/or integrated weed-management recommendations f or specific crops and weed biotypes.

 For further information or to report suspected res istance, contact a Helena Agri-Enterprises Represen tative at 901-761-0050 or at www.helenaagri.com.

Fields should be scouted prior to application to identify the weed species present and their growth st age to determine if the intended application will be effective.

Fields should be scouted after application to verif y that the treatment was effective.

Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:  Failure to control a weed species normally control led by the herbicide at the dose applied, especiall y if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;  A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a pa rticular weed species; and  Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.

Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed species to your Hele na Agri- Enterprises representative or call 901-761-0050. If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a different mechanism of action and/or use non-chemic al means to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production .

Plant into weed-free fields and keep fields as weed-free as possible.

To the extent possible, use a diversified approach toward weed management. Whenever possible incorpora te multiple weed-control practices such as mechanical cultivati on, biological management practices, and crop rotation.

Fields with difficult to control weeds should be rotated to crops that allow the use of herbicides with alternative mechanisms of action or different management practices.

Filename: Barrage HF (5905-529) 031821 CLN.doc 6

To the extent possible do not allow weed escapes to produce seeds, roots or tubers. Manage weed seeds at harvest and post-harvest to prevent a buildup of the weed seedbank.

Prevent field-to-field and within-field movement of weed seed or vegetative propagules. Thoroughly cle an plant residues from equipment before leaving fields.

Prevent an influx of weeds into the field by managing field borders.

Identify weeds present in the field through scouting and field history and understand their biology. T he weed-control program should consider all of the weeds present.

Difficult to control weeds may require sequential applications of herbicides with differing mechanisms of action.

Apply this herbicide at the correct timing and rate needed to control the most difficult weed in the f ield.

Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with a mechanism of action that differs from this product as a foundation in a weed-control program. Do not use more than two appl ications of this or any other herbicide with the same mechanism of action within a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with another mechanism of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.

If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide with a different MOA or use non-chemi cal methods to remove escapes.

Contact your local sales 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 effe ctive mechanisms of actions for each target weed.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT: A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity), and method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) can influence pesticide drift. The applicator must evaluate all factors and make appropriate adjustmen ts when applying this product.

Droplet Size When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D as the sole active ingredient, or when applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with active ingredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a Coarse or coarser spra y (ASAE standard 572) or volume mean diameter of 385 microns or grea ter for spinning atomizer nozzles.

When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with other active ingredients that require a Medium or m ore fine spray, apply only as a Medium or coarser spray (ASAE stand ard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 300 microns o r greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.

Wind Speed Do not apply at wind speeds great than 15 mph. Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target deposition and there are not sensitive areas (including, but not limited to, residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for nontarget species, nontarget crops) within 250 feed downwind. If applying a Medium spray, leave one swath unsprayed at the downwind edge of the treated field.

Temperature Inversions If applying at wind speeds less than 3 mph, the app licator must determine if: a) conditions of temperature inversion exist, or b) stable atmospheric conditions exist at or below nozzle height. Do not make applications into are as of temperature inversions or stable atmospheric conditions.

Susceptible Plants Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are not l imited to, cotton, okra, flowers, grapes (in growing stage), fruit trees (foliage), soybeans (vegetable stage), ornamentals, sunflowers, tomatoes, beans, and other vegetables, or tobacco. Small amounts of spray drift that might not be visible may injure susceptible broadleaf plants.

Filename: Barrage HF (5905-529) 031821 CLN.doc 7

Other State and Local Requirements Applicators must follow all state and local pesticide drift requirements regarding application of 2,4- D herbicides. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.

Equipment All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers or surrogates.

The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade diameter.

Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. This requirement does not apply to forestry or rights-of-way applications.

When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for this by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.

Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.

2,4-D esters may volatilize during conditions of low humidity and high temperatures. Do not apply duri ng conditions of low humidity and high temperatures.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS BARRAGE® HF is an emulsifiable concentrate formulation intended for dilution in water for many applications. For certain specified applications, liquid fertilizer or oil may replace part or all of the water as dilue nt.

If dry flowable (DF), wettable powder (WP) or flowable (F) tank mix products are to be used, these sho uld generally be added to the spray tank first. Refer to the mixing directions on the labels of the tank mix products.

For best results, thoroughly clean sprayer immediately after use by flushing system with water and hea vy duty detergent such as Wipeout®.

Water Spray: To prepare a water spray mixture, fill clean spra y tank about 1/2 to 2/3 full with clean water. With agitation turned on, add the required amount of BARRAGE® HF. Continue agitation while adding balance of water and during spray operations. NOTE: In water this product forms an emulsion and can separate upon prolonged stan ding. If spray mixture is allowed to stand, agitate again to assure uniformity.

Liquid Fertilizer Spray: Due to increased risk of crop foliage burn with fertilizer, use only as recommended on this label or supplemental labeling distributed for BARRAGE® HF. Use fertilizer rate recommended locally. Fill clea n spray tank about 1/2 to 2/3 full with liquid nitrogen fertilizer (UAN or urea) solution. Add required amount of product with vigorous agitation running. Continue agitation while adding balance of liquid fertilizer and during spray operations. Application should be made immediately. Overnight storage of m ixture is not recommended. Application during very cold (near freezing) temperatures is not advisable because of the likelihood of crop injury. This product is formulated to be compatible with most liquid nitrogen solutions, however, due to variability in fertilizers, users may wish to perform a jar compatibility test before large scale mixing. Oil Spray: Use only as recommended on this label or suppleme ntal labeling distributed for BARRAGE® HF . Fill clean spray tank about 1/2 to 2/3 full with diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or other suitable oil. Add required amount of product with agitation turned on. Continue agitation while adding balance of oil. The resulting mixture is a solution and will generally remain uniform without agitation once mixed. Howev er, agitation is suggested if available. Do not allow any water to get into the spray mixture to avoid formation of an invert emulsion (mayonnaise consistency).

Water Spray With Oil: Use only as recommended on this label or supplemen tal labeling distributed for BARRAGE® HF . Where a combination of water and oil diluent is recommended, the use of emulsifiable crop oil or crop oil concentrate is suggested since mild agitation will be sufficient. Mix in the sequence of water, product, and oil. If diesel or other nonemulsified oils listed above under "Oil Spray" are desired for use with water, add no more than 1 q uart of such oil per 1 gallon of water and agitate vigorously until tank is emptied. If possible, premix nonemulsified oil with this product and add this premix to a mostly filled spray tank with agitation on. Follow these procedures carefully to avoid formation of an invert emulsion (mayonnaise consistency).

APPLICATION PROCEDURES

CHEMIGATION PROHIBITION Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

Use calibrated spray equipment for all types of applications to assure applying the recommended amount of spray mixture per acre. Use sufficient spray volume within the ranges specified to obtain good coverage of weeds. BARRAGE® HF is absorbed sufficiently within 1 hour after application to provide adequate weed control.

Ground Broadcast Spray: Unless otherwise specified in the appropriate crop or noncrop directions, apply in 5 or more gallons of spray solution per acre. Use enough spray volume to provide uniform coverage of weeds, tak ing into account the amount of vegetation present and the type of ap plication equipment to be used. As crop canopy and weed density increase, a higher spray volume may be needed for equivalent coverage and weed control. Typical crop applications utilize 10 to 50 gallons of spray per acre while certain high volume noncrop applications may utilize more than 100 gallons per acre. Use coarse sprays to minimize potential spray drift. Do not apply with hollow cone nozzles or other nozzles that produce fine spray droplets. Boom spraying with flat fan or low volume nozzles are generally most suitable for ground broadcast applications.

Ground Band Spray: Determine band equivalents to broadcast rates and volumes by the following formulas: Band width in inches x Broadcast = Band ra te Row width in inches rate per acre per ac re

Filename: Barrage HF (5905-529) 031821 CLN.doc 10 Band width in inches x Broadcast = Band vol ume Row width in inches volume per acre per acre

Aerial Broadcast Spray: Unless otherwise specified in the appropriate cr op or noncrop directions, apply in 1 to 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. For best coverage and weed control, as well as reduced potential for spray drift, a minimum of 3 gallons per acre is suggested. Avoid using nozzles or nozzle configurations that generate fine droplets. One configuration usually found to be suitable includes straight stream nozzles (such as disk with no swirl plate) directed straight back along the windstream. Mechanical fla gging or GPS (Global Positioning Systems) systems a re suggested to obtain more uniform application.

With fixed-wing or helicopter application, an exactly even swath deposition may not be achieved, and c onsequently, crop injury or pesticide nonperformance may result wholl y or in part. Do not apply by air during periods of thermal inversion. Avoid application if potential for drift is excessive and/or susceptible crops are growing in the vicinity.

TANK MIXES It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and lim itations 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.

Unless otherwise prohibited on this label or the label of an intended tank mix product, this product may be applied in combination with any herbicide registered for the same crop, timing, and method of application. Obser ve the most restrictive label statements of various tank mix pr oducts used.

COMPATIBILITY Before full-scale mixing of this product with other herbicides, fertilizer solutions and adjuvants, it is advisable to determine the compatibility of the proposed mixture. Use proportionate quantities of each ingredient and mix in a small container. Always mix one product thoroughly with the diluent before adding another product. If no incompatibility is evident after 30 minutes, the mixture is generally compatible for spraying.

PLANTING IN TREATED AREAS Labeled Crops: Within 29 days following an application of this product, plant only those crops named as use sites o n this or other registered 2,4-D labels. Follow more specific limitations, if any, provided in the directions for individual crops. Labeled crops may be at risk for crop injury or loss when planted soon after application, especially in the first 14 days. Degradation factors described below should be considered in weighing this risk.

Other Crops: All other crops may be planted 30 or more days fo llowing an application without concern for illegal residues in the planted crop. However, under certain conditions, there may be a risk of injury to susceptible crops. Degradation factors described below should be considered in wei ghing this risk. Under normal conditions, any crop may be planted without risk of injury if at least 90 days of soil temperatures above freezing have elapsed since appl ication.

6 fl. oz.

6-13 fl. oz. Winter Wheat, Barley, Millet and Rye Full Tillering Stage : Apply when grain has 3 or more tillers and the flag leaf is not visible. Emergency Weed Control: T o control difficult weed problems in certain areas, such as under dry conditions especially in Western areas, higher rates increase the risk of crop injury. The severity of the weed problem should be balanced against the possibility of crop injury. Do not apply before the tiller stage nor from boot to dough stage.

Spring Seeded Oats Full Tillering Stage: Apply when grains have 3 or more tillers and the flag leaf is not visible. Oats are less tolerant to BARRAGE® HF than wheat or barley and present a greater risk of crop injury. The severity of the weed problem should be balanced against the possibility of crop injury. Larger weeds and hard-to-kill weeds may be poorly controlled, especially under dry conditions. Do not apply before the tiller stage nor from boot to dough stage.

Fall Seeded Oats (Southern) Grown for Grain Apply after full tillering, but prior to joints forming in the stem. Do not apply until after full tillering nor from jointing to dough stage. Oats are less tolerant to BARRAGE® HF than wheat or barley and present a greater risk of crop injury. The severity of the weed problem should be balanced against the possibility of crop injury, especially at higher rates. Avoid spraying during or immediately following cold weather.

*Use the lower rate if small annual and biennial weeds are the major problem. Use the higher rate if perennial weeds or annual and biennial weeds are present which are in the hard-to-kill categories as determined by local experience. The higher rates increase the risk of grain injury and should be used only where the weed control problem justifies the grain damage risk. Do not apply BARRAGE® HF to grain in the seedling stage.

Addition of oil or oil concentrate may cause unacceptable injury to pines. Susceptible woody species such as alder, willow, poplars, cherry, vine, maple, ceanothus, tanoak, madrone, and manzinita Up to 77 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre This dormant treatment should be applied in diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or other suitable diluent such as water plus crop oil concentrate (see "Mixing Instructions"). Do not use in plantations where pine and larch are among the desired crop species.

Hazel brush in the Lake states Up to 51 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. Apply as a water spray when new shoot growth of hazel is complete (usually mid-July).

Conifer species such as white pine, ponderosa pine, jack pine, red pine, black spruce, white spruce, red spruce, and balsam fir Up to 74 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. Apply after growth has ceased and hardened off and brush is still actively growing in late summer. If possible injury cannot be tolerated, do not use since this treatment may cause conifer injury.

Competing hardwoods such as alder, aspen, birch, hazel and willow Susceptible broadleaf weeds and woody plants on forest roadsides 26 to 77 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre Apply as a water spray and, if desired, include up to 3 quarts per acre of diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or crop oil concentrate (see "Mixing Instructions"). Apply when sufficient foliage is present for absorption.

96 fluid ounces per 100 gallons of water ESTABLISHED CONIFERS (including Christmas trees) Directed Spray or Spot Spray: Apply to emerged weeds in the spring with ground equipment. Avoid contacting conifer foliage with spray or drift as injury may result.

For brush, thoroughly spray brush in full foliage, but avoid contacting conifer foliage with spray or drift. Do not apply more than the equivalent of 96 fluid ounces per acre.

Susceptible broadleaf weeds 26 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre Over -the -Top Broadcast Application - To decrease the potential for injury to firs, apply only before budbreak in the spring and/or after complete bud set and hardening in the late summer or fall. Avoid treatment during the year of intended harvest.

Weeds in Crop Amount of BARRAGE® HF per acre Directions for Use Annual broadleaf weeds 13 to 51 ounces Apply in early spring when sufficient weeds have emerged, and when weeds are small and actively growing, but before weeds are too mature. Summer applications to older, drought stressed weeds are less effective. However, weeds are more susceptible again in the fall when cooler, wetter conditions support active growth before a killing frost.

Use the high rate for woody plants. Applications may be as broadcast sprays, small area sprays or spot treatments. For small areas or spot spraying, use 3 fluid ounces per gallon of water and spray weeds to runoff. Regardless of the method of application, use adequate spray volume for full coverage of weeds.

Several seasons of spring plus fall treatments may be necessary to control certain perennials. Use of oil sprays or the addition of spray adjuvants improves weed control, but also increases the risk of damage to desirable ground covers. Biennial and perennial broadleaf weeds 26 ounces

ORNAMENTAL AND RECREATIONAL TURFGRASSES, LAWNS, GOL F COURSES (Fairways, Aprons, Tees, and Roughs), PARKS AND CEMETERIES Weeds in Crop Amount of BARRAGE® HF per acre Directions for Use Annual broadleaf weeds

Biennial and perennial broadleaf weeds 13 to 19 ounces

Use sufficient spray volume for thorough and uniform coverage. For best results, do not mow turf 1 to 2 days before or after application. Turf watering should be delayed for at least 1 hour after application. Avoid contacting desirable trees, shrubs, flowers or vegetables since plant injury may result. Do not apply to newly seeded areas until grass is well established and has been mowed several times. A period of about 30 days after application is usually a sufficient interval before reseeding grasses (or other plants). Seeding a small area and observing response is recommended before large scale seeding.

For Cool Season Grasses: To control many emerged broadleaf weeds in cool season turfgrasses such as tall fescue, bluegrass, or perennial ryegrass, apply 16 to 32 fluid ounces per acre (0.38 to 0.75 ounce per 1,000 square feet). Preferred application timing for broadcast treatment is in the early spring when small weeds have emerged and are actively growing under good moisture conditions. For very weedy turf, a follow-up broadcast or spot application may be needed from 2 to 4 weeks later. Summer applications are typically spot treatments of individual weeds that have emerged after a spring broadcast treatment. In the fall when cooler, wetter conditions factor active weed growth, broadcast application may be appropriate for very weedy turf, such as an area that had no spring broadcast treatment. Do not use on centipede, carpetgrass, St. Augustine, bentgrass or Dichondra turf, or where desirable clovers are present.
