ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. Apply this product only as directed on the label. This chemical is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in ground water contamination . Ground and Surface Water Protection Point source contamination: To prevent point source contamination, do not mix, load this pesticide product within 50 feet of wells (including abandoned wells and drainage wells), sink holes, perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, and natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. Do not apply pesticide product within 50 feet of wells. This setback does not apply to properly capped or plugged abandoned wells and does not apply to impervious pad or properly diked mixing/loading areas as described below. Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 2
Mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing operations performed within 50 feet of a well are allowed only when conducted on an impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be on or move across the pad. The pad must be self-contained to prevent surface water flow over or from the pad. The pad capacity must be maintained at 110% that of the largest pesticide container or application equipment used on the pad and have sufficient capacity to contain all product spills, equipment or container leaks, equipment wash waters, and rainwater that may fall on the pad. The containment capacity does not apply to vehicles delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading site. States may have in effect additional requirements regarding wellhead setbacks and operational containment. Care must be taken when using this product to prevent: a) back siphoning into wells, b) spills or c) improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixtures or rinsates. Check valves or antisiphoning devices must be used on all mixing equipment. Movement by surface runoff or through soil: Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff. Do not apply to impervious substrates such as paved or highly compacted surfaces in areas with high potential for ground water contamination. Ground water contamination may occur in areas where soils are permeable or coarse and ground water is near the surface. Do not apply to soils classified as sand with less than 3% organic matter and where ground water depth is shallow. To minimize the possibility of ground water contamination, carefully follow application rate recommendations as affected by soil type in the "Product Information" section of this label. Movement by water erosion of treated soil: Do not apply or incorporate this product through any type of irrigation equipment nor by flood or furrow irrigation. Ensure treated areas have received at least one-half inch rainfall (or irrigation) before using tailwater for subsequent irrigation of other fields. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL HAZARDS Do not mix or allow contact with oxidizing agents, as a hazardous chemical reaction may occur. ENDANGERED SPECIES CONCERNS The use of any pesticide in a manner that may kill or otherwise harm an endangered species or adversely modify their habitat is a violation of federal law. To ensure the protection of known populations of threatened and endangered plants when applying HM-1524 HERBICIDE to pasture, rangeland, and noncropland sites:
- Federal agencies must follow NEPA regulations to ensure protection of threatened and endangered plants.
- State agencies must work with the Fish and Wildlife Service or the Service's designated state conservation agency to ensure protection of threatened and endangered plants·
- Other organizations or individuals must operate under a Habitat Conservation Plan if threatened or endangered plants are known to be present on the land to be treated. Apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE only when the potential for drift to known populations of threatened or endangered plant species is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive area). DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your state or tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. Unless otherwise directed in supplemental labeling, all applicable directions, restrictions, precautions and "Conditions of Sale and Warranty" are to be followed. This labeling must be in the user's possession during application. Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 3

It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE), and restricted-entry interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard. Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 24 hours. PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, is: • Coveralls worn over short-sleeved shirt and short pants • Chemical-resistant footwear plus socks • Chemical-resistant gloves • Chemical-resistant headgear for overhead exposure • Protective evewear. NONAGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests, nurseries, or greenhouses . Do not enter or allow others to enter until sprays have dried. RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT For resistance management, this product is a Group 4 mode of action herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to this product and other Group 4 mode of action herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed. To delay herbicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: • Rotate the use of this product or other Group 4 herbicides 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 herbicide 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 timing 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 development. Indicators of possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species normally Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 4
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 same 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 weed 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 after 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 certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance management and/or integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes. • For further information or to report suspected resistance, contact Helena Agri-Enterprises, LLC representatives at (901) 761-0050. PRODUCT INFORMATION HM-1524 HERBICIDE is an emulsifiable formulation intended for control or suppression of many annual, biennial, and perennial broad leaf weeds as well as woody brush and vines listed in Table 1. HM-1524 HERBICIDE may be used for control of these weeds in asparagus, corn (field, pop, seed, silage), cotton (preplant), conservation reserve programs, fallow cropland, grass grown for seed, hay, proso millet, pasture, rangeland, general farmstead (non-cropland), small grains, sorghum, soybean, sugarcane, and turf. MODE OF ACTION HM-1524 HERBICIDE is readily absorbed by plants through shoot and root uptake, translocates throughout the plant's system, and accumulates in areas of active growth. HM-1524 HERBICIDE interferes with the plant's growth hormones (auxins) resulting in death of many broadleaf weeds. MIXING AND APPLICATION UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED UNDER THE INDIVIDUAL USE HEADING OF THIS LABEL, THE FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS APPLY TO ALL CROP AND NON-CROP USES OF THIS PRODUCT. REFER TO INDIVIDUAL USE SECTIONS FOR ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS, RESTRICTIONS, APPLICATION RATES AND TIMINGS . This product is a water-soluble formulation that can be applied using water or sprayable fluid fertilizer as the carrier. If a fluid fertilizer is to be used, perform a compatibility test (see the "COMPA T/8/LITY TEST" section of this label) prior to tank-mixing. Use ground or aerial application equipment which will give good spray coverage of weed foliage. However, do not use aerial application equipment if spray particles can be carried by wind into areas where sensitive crops or plants are growing or when temperature inversions exist. Apply 3 to 50 gallons of a diluted spray per treated acre when using ground application equipment or 1 to 10 gallons of a diluted spray per treated acre (2 to 20 gals. of diluted spray per acre for pre-harvest uses) in a water based carrier when using aerial application equipment. Use the higher level of the listed spray volumes when treating dense or tall vegetation. Use coarse sprays. Select nozzles designed to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles. Spray with nozzles as close to the weeds as is practical for good weed coverage. To avoid uneven spray coverage, this product should not be applied during periods of gusty wind or when wind is in excess of 15 mph. Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 5
Avoid disturbing (e.g., cultivating or mowing) treated areas for at least 7 days following application . BEST STEWARDSHIP PRACTICES This product provides effective broadleaf weed and brush control when properly applied. Best stewardship practices in all mixing, loading and application operations not only maximize weed control, but also protect ground and surface waters and minimize off-target movement. This chemical is known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater contamination . GROUND AND SURFACE WATER PROTECTION

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE GROWER. The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions . The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target movement from aerial applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications , public health uses or to applications using dry formulations .
-
The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed ¾ the length of the wingspan or rotor. Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 6
-
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 must be observed. The applicator and the grower must be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory. AERIAL DRIFT REDUCTION INFORMATION INFORMATION ON 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 "Wind", "Temperature and Humidity", and "Temperature Inversions"). CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE • Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. • Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For many nozzle types lower pressure produces larger droplets. 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 uniform coverage. • Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice. Significant deflection from 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 the largest droplets and the lowest drift. BOOM LENGTH For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than ¾ 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 target plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind. SWATH ADJUSTMENT When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.) WIND Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2-10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed. Application should be avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift. TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry. Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 7
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential 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 and 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 conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. SENSITIVE CROP PRECAUTIONS This product may cause injury to desirable trees and plants, particularly Beans, Cotton, Flowers, Fruit trees, Grapes, Ornamentals, Peas, Potatoes, Soybeans, Sunflowers, Tobacco, Tomatoes and other broadleaf plants when contacting their roots, stems or foliage. These plants are most sensitive to this product during their development or growing stage. Follow the precautions listed below when using this product. • Avoid making applications when spray particles may be carried by air currents to areas where sensitive crops and plants are growing, or when temperature inversions exist. Leave an adequate buffer zone between area to be treated and sensitive plants. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift out of the target area than fine sprays. • Use coarse sprays to avoid potential herbicide drift. Select nozzles which are designed to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles. Examples of nozzles designed to produce coarse spray via ground applications are Delavan Raindrops, Spraying Systems XR flat fans or large capacity flood nozzles such as D10, TK10 or greater capacity tips. Keep the spray pressure at or below 20 psi and the spray volume at or above 20 gallons per acre, unless otherwise required by the manufacturer of drift reducing nozzles. Consult with your spray nozzle supplier concerning the choice of drift-reducing nozzles. • Agriculturally approved drift-reducing additives may be used. • To avoid injury to desirable plants, equipment used to apply this product should be thoroughly cleaned (see "PROCEDURE FOR CLEANING SPRAY EQUIPMENT" section of this label) before reusing to apply any other chemicals . USE RESTRICTIONS ON SENSITIVE CROPS • Do not treat areas where either possible downward movement into the soil or surface washing may cause contact of this product with the roots of desirable plants such as trees and shrubs. • Do not spray near sensitive plants if wind is gusty or in excess of 5 mph and moving in the direction of adjacent sensitive crops. • Do not apply this product adjacent to sensitive crops when the temperature on the day of application is expected to exceed 85°F, as drift is more likely to occur. All crop uses of this product are intended for a normal growing interval between planting and harvest. No crop rotation restrictions exist if normal harvest of treated crop has occurred. If this interval is shortened, such as in cover crop that will be plowed under, do not follow up with the planting of a sensitive crop. Crops growing under stress conditions such as drought, poor fertility or foliar damage due to hail, wind or insects, can exhibit various injury symptoms that may be more pronounced if herbicides are applied. Consult your local or state authorities for possible application restrictions and advice concerning these and other special local use situations. TANK-MIX DIRECTIONS ARE FOR USE ONLY IN STATES WHERE THE TANK MIX PRODUCT AND APPLICATION SITE ARE REGISTERED . GROUND APPLICATION - BAND TREATMENTS This product may be applied as a band treatment.

Use the higher spray volume when treating dense or tall vegetation. Application Equipment: Select nozzles designed to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles. Spray with nozzles as close to the weeds as is practical for good weed coverage. GROUND APPLICATION - WIPERS HM-1524 HERBICIDE may be applied through wiper application equipment to control or suppress actively growing broadleaf weeds, brush, and vines listed on this label. Use a solution containing 1 part HM-1524 HERBICIDE to 1 part water. Do not contact desirable vegetation with herbicide solution. Wiper application may be made to crops (but not to sorghum or soybeans) and on non-cropland areas and pasture described in this label. ADDITIVES To improve postemergence weed control, agriculturally approved surfactants, sprayable fertilizers (urea ammonium nitrate, or ammonium sulfate), or crop oil concentrate may be added, particularly in dry growing conditions. (Refer to "Table 3, Additive Rate".) Do not use crop oil concentrate for postemergence in-crop applications unless specifically allowed in section "VI. Crop-Specific Information" of this label. Nitrogen Source • Urea ammonium nitrate (UAN): Use 2-4 quarts of UAN (commonly referred to as 28%, 30%, or 32% nitrogen solution) per acre. Do not use brass or aluminum nozzles when spraying UAN. • Ammonium sulfate (AMS): AMS at 2.5 pounds per acre may be substituted for UAN. Use high-quality AMS (spray grade) to avoid plugging of nozzles. Other sources of nitrogen are not as effective as those mentioned. Helena Agri-Enterprises, LLC does not recommend applying AMS if applied in less than 10 gallons per acre because of potential problems with precipitation in reduced volumes. Use AMS only if it has been demonstrated to be successful in local experience. Table 2.

<1> Rates below 8 fluid ounces per acre may provide control or suppression but should typically be applied with other herbicides that are effective on the same species and biotype. <2> Species noted in Table 2 will require tank mixes for adequate control. <3> No more than 2 applications per year are allowed. Do not broadcast apply more than 32 fluid ounces per acre. Use the higher level of listed rate ranges when treating dense vegetative growth or perennial weeds with well established root growth. Nonionic Surfactant The standard label recommendation is 1 pint of an 80% active nonionic spray surfactant per 100 gallons of water. Oil Concentrate A crop oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum or vegetable oil base and must meet all of the following criteria: • be non-phytotoxic, • contain only EPA exempt from tolerance regulation ingredients, • provide good mixing quality in the jar test, and • be successful in local experience. The exact composition of suitable products will vary; however, vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates should contain emulsifiers to provide good mixing quality. Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more satisfactory than unrefined vegetable oils. Adjuvants containing crop oil concentrates may be used in preplant, pre-emergence, and preharvest applications as well as in pastures and noncropland. Do not use crop oil concentrate for postemergence in-crop applications unless specifically allowed in section "VI. Crop-Specific Information" of this label.

For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups (800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust accordingly. Only use water from the intended source at the source temperature. Add components in the sequence indicated in the "Mixing Order" using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon for each pint of recommended label rate per acre. Always cap the jar and invert 1 O cycles between component additions. When the components have all been added to the jar, let the solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. The spray solution should not have free oil on the surface, nor fine particles that precipitate to the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. If the spray solution is not compatible, repeat the compatibility test with the addition of a suitable compatibility agent. If the solution is then compatible, use the compatibility agent as directed on its label. If the solution is still incompatible, do not mix the ingredients in the same tank. Mixing Order

BETWEEN CROP APPLICATIONS PREPLANT DIRECTIONS (POSTHARVEST, FALLOW, CROP STUBBLE, CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAMS, FARMLAND) FOR BROADLEAF WEED CONTROL HM-1524 HERBICIDE can be applied either postharvest in the fall, spring, or summer during the fallow period or to crop stubble/set-aside acres. Apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE as a broadcast or spot treatment to emerged and actively growing weeds after crop harvest (postharvest) and before a killing frost or in the fallow cropland or crop stubble the following spring or summer. See "Crop Rotational Restrictions" in section "V. Restrictions " for the recommended interval between application and planting to prevent crop injury. Rates and Timings: Apply 4-32 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre for between crop applications. Refer to Table 2 to determine use rates for specific targeted weed species. For best performance, apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE when annual weeds are less than 6" tall, when biennial weeds are in the rosette stage and to perennial weed regrowth in late summer or fall following a mowing or tillage treatment. The most effective control of upright perennial broad leaf weeds such as Canada thistle and Jerusalem artichoke occurs if HM-1524 HERBICIDE is applied when the majority of weeds have at least 4-6" of regrowth or for weeds such as field bindweed and hedge bindweed that are in or beyond the full bloom stage. Avoid disturbing treated areas following application. Treatments may not kill weeds that develop from seed or underground plant parts such as rhizomes or bulblets, after the effective period for HM-1524 HERBICIDE. For seedling control, a follow-up program or other cultural practices could be instituted. For small grain in-crop uses of HM-1524 HERBICIDE, refer to the small grain section for details. BETWEEN CROP TANK MIXES In tank mixes with one or more of the following herbicides for between crop applications, apply 4-16 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre for control of annual weeds, or 16-32 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre for control of biennial and perennial weeds: 2,4-D dicamba paraquat atrazine glyphosate picloram cloovralid metribuzin pron amide ch lorsu lfu ron metsulfuron-methyl triasulfuron Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 15

If corn seeds are less than 1.5" below the soil surface, delay application until corn has emerged. Applications of HM-1524 HERBICIDE to corn during periods of rapid growth may result in temporary leaning. Corn will usually become erect within 3-7 days. Cultivation should be delayed until after corn is growing normally to avoid breakage. Corn may be harvested or grazed for feed once the crop has reached the ensilage (milk) stage or later in maturity. PREPLANT AND PRE-EMERGENCE APPLICATION IN NO TILLAGE CORN: Rates: Apply 16 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre for no-tillage corn on medium- or fine-textured soils containing 2.5% or greater organic matter. Use 8 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre for no-tillage com on coarse soils (sand, loamy sand, and sandy loam) or medium- and fine-textured soils with less than 2.5% organic matter. Timing: HM-1524 HERBICIDE can be applied to emerged weeds before, during, or after planting a corn crop. When planting into a legume sod (e.g., alfalfa or clover), apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE after 4-6" of regrowth has occurred. PRE-EMERGENCE APPLICATION IN CONVENTIONAL OR REDUCED TILLAGE CORN: Rates: Apply 16 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per treated acre for conventional or reduced tillage corn to medium- or fine-textured soils that contain 2.5% organic matter or more. Do not apply to coarse-textured soils (sand, loamy sand, or sandy loam) or any soil with less than 2.5% organic matter until after corn emergence (see Early Postemergence uses below). Timing: HM-1524 HERBICIDE may be applied after planting and prior to corn emergence. Pre-emergence application of HM- 1524 HERBICIDE does not require mechanical incorporation to become active. A shallow mechanical incorporation is recommended if the application is not followed by adequate rainfall or sprinkler irrigation. Avoid tillage equipment (e.g., drags, harrows) that concentrate treated soil over seed furrow, as seed damage could result. Pre-emergence control of cocklebur, jimsonweed, and velvetleaf may be reduced if conditions such as low temperature or lack of soil moisture cause delayed or deep germination of weeds. EARLY POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATION IN ALL TILLAGE SYSTEMS: Rates: Apply 16 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per treated acre to corn for early postemergence. Reduce the rate to 8 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per treated acre for corn grown on coarse textured soils (sand, loamy sand, and sandy loam). Timing: Apply between corn emergence and the 5-leaf stage or 8" tall, whichever occurs first. Refer to Late Postemergence Application if the sixth true leaf is emerging from whorl or the corn is greater than 8" tall. LATE POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATION: Rate: Apply 8 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per treated acre to corn for late postemergence application. Timing: Apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE from 8-36" tall corn or 15 days before tassel emergence, whichever comes first. For best performance, apply when weeds are less than 3" tall.

PASTURE, HAY, AND RANGELAND, AND GENERAL FARMSTEAD (NONCROPLAND) HM-1524 HERBICIDE is recommended for use on pasture, hay, rangeland, and general farmstead (non-cropland) (including fencerows and non-irrigation ditchbanks) for control or suppression of broadleaf weed and brush species listed in Table 1. HM-1524 HERBICIDE may also be applied to non-cropland areas to control broadleafweeds in noxious weed control programs, districts, or areas including broadcast or spot treatment of roadsides and highways, utilities, railroad, and pipeline rights-of-way. Noxious weeds must be recognized at the state level, but programs may be administered at state, county, or other level, HM-1524 HERBICIDE uses described in this section also pertain to small grains (forage sorghum, rye, sudangrass, or wheat) grown for pasture use only. Some perennial weeds may be controlled with lower rates of either HM- 1524 HERBICIDE or HM-1524 HERBICIDE plus 2,4-D (refer to Table 2). Rates and Timings Refer to Table 2 for rate selection based on targeted weed or brush species. Some weeds will require tank mixes for adequate control. HM-1524 HERBICIDE™ can be applied using water, oil in water emulsions including invert systems, or sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier (refer to the "Compatibility Test for Mix Components"). Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 19
COMPATIBILITY TEST FOR MIX COMPONENTS To prepare oil in water emulsions, half-fill spray tank with water, then add the appropriate amount of emulsifier. With continuous agitation, slowly add the herbicide and then the oil (such as diesel oil or fuel oil) or a premix of oil plus additional emulsifier to spray tank. Complete filling of spray tank with water. Maintain vigorous agitation during spray operation to prevent oil and water from forming separate layers. HM-1524 HERBICIDE may be applied broadcast using either ground or aerial application equipment. Aerial Application: Spray Volume: Use 2-40 gallons of diluted spray per treated acre in a water-based carrier. Ground Application: Spray Volume: Use 3-600 gallons of diluted spray per treated acre. The volume of spray applied will depend on the height, density, and type of weeds or brush being treated and on the type of equipment being used. Spot Treatments: HM-1524 HERBICIDE may be applied to individual clumps or small areas of undesirable vegetation using handgun or similar types of application equipment. Apply diluted sprays to allow complete wetting (up to runoff) of foliage and stems. Cut Surface Treatments: HM-1524 HERBICIDE may be applied as a cut surface treatment for control of unwanted trees and prevention of sprouts of cut trees. Rate: Mix 1 part HM-1524 HERBICIDE with 1-3 parts water to create the application solution. Use the lower dilution rate when treating difficult-to-control species. For Frill or Girdle Treatments: Make a continuous cut or a series of overlapping cuts using an axe to girdle tree trunk. Spray or paint the cut surface with the solution. For Stump Treatments: Spray or paint freshly cut surface with the water mix. The area adjacent to the bark should be thoroughly wet. Note: For more rapid foliar effects, a 2,4-D product labeled for cut surface treatment may be added to the solution. APPLICATIONS FOR CONTROL OF DORMANT MUL TIFLORA ROSE: HM-1524 HERBICIDE can be applied when plants are dormant as an undiluted spot treatment directly to the soil or as a Lo-Oil basal bark treatment using an oil-water emulsion solution. Spot Treatments: Spot treatment applications of HM-1524 HERBICIDE should be applied directly to the soil as close as possible to the root crown but within 6-8" of the crown. On sloping terrain, apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE to the uphill side of the crown. The use rate of HM-1524 HERBICIDE depends on the canopy diameter of the multiflora rose. Examples: Use 0.25, 1.0, or 2.35 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE respectively, for 5, 10, or 15 feet canopy diameters. Spot Treatments Restrictions: • Do not apply when snow or water prevents applying HM-1524 HERBICIDE directly to the soil. Lo-Oil Basal Bark Treatments: For Lo-Oil basal bark treatments, apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE to the basal stem region from the ground line to a height of 12- 18". Spray until runoff, with special emphasis on covering the root crown. For best results, apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE when plants are dormant. To prepare approximately 2 gallons of a Lo-Oil spray solution:
- Combine 1.5 gallons of water, 1 ounce of emulsifier, 16 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE, and 2.5 pints of No. 2 diesel fuel.
- Adjust the amounts of materials used proportionately to the amount of final spray solution desired.

FALL AND SPRING-SEEDED BARLEY, OATS, TRITICALE AND WHEAT HM-1524 HERBICIDE combinations with listed tank mix partners will provide control or suppression of the annual broadleaf weeds listed in Table 1. For improved control of listed weeds, tank mix HM-1524 HERBICIDE with one or more of the herbicides listed. HM-1524 HERBICIDE used in a tank mix with other herbicides offers the best spectrum of weed control and herbicide tolerant weed management. Refer to the specific section crop for HM-1524 HERBICIDE application rate and timing. For applications prior to weed emergence or when sulfonylurea-resistant weeds are present or suspected, tank mix a minimum of 3 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per treated acre with a non-sulfonylurea herbicide such as 2,4-D or MCPA. Tank mixing HM-1524 HERBICIDE with these products will offer more consistent control of sulfonylurea-tolerant weeds. Additives: When tank mixing HM-1524 HERBICIDE with sulfonylurea herbicides, use 1-4 pints of an agriculturally approved surfactant (containing at least 80% active ingredient) per 100 gallons of spray or not more than 0.25-0.5% by volume. Use the highest rate of surfactant when using the lower rate ranges of the tank mix or when treating more mature and difficult to control weeds or dense vegetative growth. Refer to the specific crop sections below for use rates. When treating difficult to control weeds such as kochia, wild buckwheat, cow cockle, prostrate knotweed, Russian thistle, and prickly lettuce or when dense vegetative growth occurs, use the 4 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre on barley, oats, triticale and wheat. Timings: Apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE before, during, or after planting barley, oats, triticale and wheat. See specific barley, oats, triticale and wheat crop uses below for maximum crop stage. For best performance, apply HM-1524 HERBICIDE when weeds are in the 2-3 leaf stage and rosettes are less than 2" across. Applying HM-1524 HERBICIDE to barley, oats, triticale and wheat during periods of rapid growth may result in crop leaning. This condition is temporary and will not reduce crop yields. Applications to barley, oats, triticale and wheat may be made with aerial applications with 1 gallon of water or more per acre. Where dense foliage is present, 2-3 gallons of water per acre should be used. BARLEY (Fall- and Spring- Seeded) EARLY SEASON APPLICATIONS: Apply 2-4 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE to fall-seeded barley prior to the jointing stage. Apply 2-3 fluid ounces of HM- 1524 HERBICIDE before spring-seeded barley exceeds the 4-leaf stage. Note: For spring barley varieties that are seeded during the winter months or later, follow the rates and timings given for spring-seeded barley. Do not tank mix HM-1524 HERBICIDE with 2,4-D in early season applications on spring-seeded barley. PREHARVEST APPLICATIONS: HM-1524 HERBICIDE can be used to control weeds that may interfere with harvest of fall- and spring-seeded barley. Apply 8 fluid ounces of HM-1524 HERBICIDE per acre as a broadcast or spot treatment to annual broadleaf weeds when barley is in the hard dough stage and the green color is gone from the nodes (joints) of the stem. Best results will be obtained if application can be made when weeds are actively growing but before weeds canopy. Filename: HM-1524 Herbicide (5905-AEU) 051120 CLN 22
