OBSERVE THESE PRECAUTIONS Avoid applications of spray or drift of spray to desirable plants, as this product may injure cotton, tomatoes, beans, peas, most vegetables, ornamentals, grapes or others. Even minute quantities of the spray may cause severe injury. Accordingly, application by airplanes should be made only when there is no hazard from drift. All sprays are likely to drift under certain conditions. The finer the spray, the greater the likelihood of drift effect. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift. Use only amount needed. DO NOT OVERDOSE. Be sure that airplane spraying equipment has a quick-acting, effective cutoff valve, and is used from the lowest possible altitude by an aircraft operator experienced in the application of herbicides. Do not use same equipment for other purposes. If necessary to use sprayer for any other spraying, be sure to thoroughly clean all equipment with a suitable chemical cleaner. (1 qt. of household ammonia in 20 to 25 gals. water - let stand overnight, then rinse thoroughly with water) FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY Always mix with water, so as to apply the recommended amount of 2,4-0 Amine per acre in the amount of water necessary to cover an acre of ground with the spraying equipment used. Apply 2,4-0 sprays at low pressures of approximately 30 to 50 pounds, with nozzles adjusted to give a coarse, wetting spray consisting of large droplets. . For best results apply 2,4-0 sprays when soil and climatic conditions are conducive to rapid plant growth. This product may be applied when temperatures range from 50' to 95'; results may be unsatisfactory below 65' and above 90'. Sprays applied under adverse conditions (abnormally cool or hot and dry weather or when weeds are near maturity) should contain maximum recommended dosage. Under such conditions, control results may not always be entirely satisfactory.

The recommendations given are general. Because of varietal and local conditions, consult Agricultural Experiment Station or Extension Service weed specialists.

AMOUNTS OF SPRAY MIXTURE TO APPLY AIRPLANE APPLICATION· Water· Dilute recommended amount of 2,4·0 Amine in 1 to 5 gallons of water and apply per acre. GROUND SPRAYERS· Dilute recommended amount in 8 to 20 or more gallons of water and apply per acre. The amount of water required will depend upon the crop and type of equipment used. Thorough agitation of spray mixture is necessary for best results. TO CONTROL WEEDS IN RESISTANT CROPS 2,4-D Amine is a selective water soluble herbicide for the control of susceptible broadleaf weeds in growing small grain crops, com, sugar cane, pastures, lawns, and turf. The following dosages are suggested on growing crops for the control of susceptible weeds such as mustard, sunflower, lambs· quarters, pigweed, ragweed, dock, cocklebur, sow thistle, marsh elder, and many other species. Perennial weeds are best when In bud or in eay bloom stage of growth. WHEAT, OATS, BARLEY AND RYE· 2,4-D sprays applied during seedling stage of growth may reduce yields. When crop plants are tillering (stooling), use Yo to 1 pint of 2,4·D Amine per acre and 1 to 1 Yo pints per acre when fully tillered (stooled) • but before the eay boot stage. Sprays containing 2 to 3 pints per acre may be applied as an emergency weed control measure when seed in heads is past dough stage. When small grain is underseeded with a legume such as alfalfa or clovers, use Y. to Yo pint of 2,4-D Amine per acre while the small grain is between tiller and boot stage. The legumes are less likely to . be injured if a small grain foliage canopy is allowed to develop before application is made. Apply the lowest gallonage possible at low pressure in order to reduce penetration of the canopy with the spray. For Spring Wheat'and Durum, this product can be used when the crop is in the three leaf stage but before the booting stage. Consult your local authorities: Fall applications of 2,4·D in crops are not recommended. Do not forage or graze treated grain fields within two weeks after treatment with 2,4-0. Do not feed treated straw to livestock. CORN AND SORGHUM· Crop varieties vary in susceptibility to injury. 2,4-D sprays may cause some injury to stalks such as lodging, bending, and brittleness. Plants generally recover from lodging or bending. Stalks may remain brittle 5 to 7 days, during which time they are subject to breakage by high winds and cultivation. Avoid . tf/(; cultivating while this condition prevails. Injury is most likely when crop is growing rapidly. Spray 1 pint of 2,4·D Amine per acre as soon as majority of weeds are actively growing. Do not apply 2,4·0 sprays from tasseling to dough stage. Use extension nozzles to direct sprays away from the leaves of com and sorghum that are 8 inches or more high. RICE· To control Cuy Indigo, Coffeeweed and other broadleaved weeds in rice, apply 2,4-D Amine at 1 to 2·112 pints per acre any time after rice is well tillered but before the joining or boot stage (4 to 8 weeks after emergence; or where flooded, treated between 7 and 9 weeks after seeding, when plants have emerged above water and leaves are standing erect). Rice plants are sensitive to 2,4·0 in the eay seedling, boot and ea~y heading stages; avoid applications of 2,4·0 Amine during these stages of growth. Avoid drift to cotton or other 2,4·0 susceptible crops. SUGAR CANE· Apply 2,4-0 Amine at 1 or 2 quarts per acre when cane is 1 to 2 feet tall to control broadleaf weeds. TO CONTROL WEEDS ON NON·CROPPED AREAS Fence rows, vacant lots, around buildings Apply sprays containing 2 to 4 pints of 2,4·0 Amine per acre (or 2 to 3 quarts of 2,4-0 Amine in 100 gallons of water) for control of most broadleaf weeds. Use higher dosage to control more resistant weeds. Sufficient spray should be used to thoroughly wet all the weed foliage. Spray when weeds are growing actively. Deep rooted perennial weeds such as Bindweed, Canada Thistle, Hoary Cress, and Poison Ivy may require 4 to 6 pints per acre and repeat application may be necessary as new growth appears. TO CONTROL WEEDS ON PASTURE, GOLF COURSES, PARKS, CEMETERIES, AND LARGE TURF AREAS For each application apply sprays containing 2 to 3 pints of 2,4-D Amine per acre per site for control of most broadleaf weeds. Use higher rate where perennial broadleaf weeds are the major problems. Spray when seeds are growing actively. Seedling grasses should not be sprayed until root systems are established and sod has been fonned. Some injury to clover, creeping bent, carpet grass and St. Augustine grass may occur. Keep dairy animals off treated areas for 7 days. Do not cut grass for hay for 30 days after treatment. Do not slaughter for meat animals for 3 days after treatment. For use in hand sprayers, mix 1·112 to 2 teaspoons of 2,4-0 Amine per gallon of water. Wet all foliage thoroughly. NOTES FOR ALL TURF SITES: The maximum number of broadcast applications per treatment site is 2 per year.
