Precautionary Statements
Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals
CAUTION.
Harmful if swallowed. Harmful if absorbed
through skin. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid con-
tact with eyes, skin, or clothing. Prolonged or frequently
repeated skin contact may cause allergic reaction in some
individuals.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
All mixers, loaders, and applicators and other
handlers must wear:
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof
material such as polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride
(except pilots)
• Shoes plus socks
See engineering controls for additional requirements and
exceptions.
Follow the manufacturers instructions for cleaning and
maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables
exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE
separately from other laundry.
Engineering Controls Statement
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or
aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in
the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural
pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in
the WPS. Pilots must use cockpits in a manner that meets
the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard
(WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6).
User Safety Recommendations
Users should:
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum,
using tobacco, or using the toilet.
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets
inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean
clothing.
• 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
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 washwater or rinsate. DO NOT apply where/
when conditions could favor runoff.
Groundwater Advisory Statement: Nicosulfuron is
known to leach through soil into groundwater under cer-
tain conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may
leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are
permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
Surface Water Advisory Statement: This product may
impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water.
This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils
with shallow ground water. This product is classified as
having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff
for several months or more after application. A level,
well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to
which this product is applied and surface water features
such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the
potential loading of nicosulfuron from runoff water and
sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by
avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected
to occur within 48 hours.
FIRST AID
If swallowed
• Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice.
• Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow.
• DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor.
• DO NOT give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
If on skin or clothing
• Take off contaminated clothing.
• Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
If in eyes
• Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes.
• Remove contact lenses, if present, after first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
HOT LINE NUMBER
Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or doctor or going for treatment.
You may also contact BASF Corporation for emergency medical treatment information: 1-800-832-HELP (4357).

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 imper-
vious pad or properly diked mixing/loading areas as
described below.
Environmental Hazards - Ground and
Surface Water Protection (continued):
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 prod-
uct spills, equipment or container leaks, equipment wash
waters, and rain-water that may fall on the pad. The con-
tainment 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 dispos-
al 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.
Movement by water erosion of treated soil: DO NOT
apply or incorporate this product through any type of irri-
gation 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 irriga-
tion of other fields.
Windblown Soil Particles: Celebrity
® Plus herbicide
has the potential to move off-site due to wind erosion. Soils
that are subject to wind erosion usually have a high silt
and/or fine to very fine sand fractions and low organic mat-
ter content. Other factors which can affects the movement
of windblown soil include the intensity and direction of pre-
vailing winds, vegetative cover, site slope, rainfall, and
drainage patterns. Avoid applying Celebrity Plus if pre-
vailing local conditions may be expected to result in off-site
movement.
Non-target Organism Advisory Statement: This prod-
uct is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage
and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinators,
in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and
habitat of non-target organisms by following label direc-
tions intended to minimize spray drift.
Endangered Species Concerns
The use of any pesticide in a manner that may kill or other-
wise harm an endangered species or adversely modify
their habitat is a violation of federal law.
Directions For Use
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a man-
ner 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 applica-
tion. 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 users possession during
application.

I. Product Information
Celebrity ® Plus herbicide is intended for postemer-
gence control of a wide spectrum of broadleaf weeds and
grasses in field corn including high lysine, waxy, white, or
other food-grade corn hybrids and popcorn (refer to
Table 2. Weeds Controlled).
Mode of Action
Celebrity Plus is composed of three active ingredients
each with a different mode of action. The dicamba compo-
nent is a Group 4 (WSSA) herbicide. Herbicides in this
group mimic auxin (a plant hormone) resulting in a hor-
mone imbalance in sensitive plants that interferes with
normal plant growth (e.g. cell division, cell enlargement,
and protein synthesis). The nicosulfuron (Group 19) com-
ponent inhibits acetolactate synthase which is a key
enzyme in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids
and is the primary component for grass control. The
diflufenzopyr (Group 2) component is an auxin transport
inhibitor and it compliments dicamba which is an auxin
antagonist. Together, these are the primary modes of
action for broadleaf weed control.
Weed Resistance Management
While weed resistance to herbicides is infrequent, popula-
tions of resistant biotypes are known to exist. Resistance
management should be part of a diversified weed control
strategy that integrates multiple options including chemi-
cal, cultural, and mechanical (tillage) control tactics.
Cultural control tactics include crop rotation, proper fertiliz-
er placement, optimum seeding rate/row spacing, and
timely tillage.
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to
this product, follow these steps where practical:
• Start clean with tillage or an effective burndown herbi-
cide program.
• DO NOT rely on a single herbicide site of action for weed
control during the growing season.
• Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and
rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed
sizes present.
• Apply full labeled rates of Celebrity Plus for the most
difficult-to-control weed in the field at the specified time
(correct weed size) to minimize weed escapes.
• Use of preemergence herbicides that provide soil residu-
al control of broadleaf and grass weeds is recommended
to reduce early season weed competition and allow for
more timely in-crop postemergence herbicide
applications.
• Avoid application of herbicides with the same site of
action more than twice a season.
• Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or
shifts in weed species.
• 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;
5
(3) 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 BASF retailer,
representative.
• Any weed population may contain plants naturally resis-
tant to Group 2, Group 4, and/or Group 19 herbicides.
If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with a
herbicide having a different mode of action and/or use
non-chemical methods to remove escapes, as is practi-
cal, with the goal of preventing further seed production.
• For more information about weeds that are known to be
resistant to dicamba go to www.Resistance-
Information.BASF.US.
Additionally, follow as many of these herbicide resistance
management practices as is practical:
• Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other
modes of action as a foundation in a weed control
program.
• Utilize sequential applications of effective herbicides with
alternative modes of action.
• Rotate the use of this product with herbicides having a
different mode of action.
• Avoid making more than two applications of Celebrity
®
Plus herbicide and any other Group 2, Group 4, or
Group 19 herbicides within a single growing season
unless mixed with another site of action with an overlap-
ping spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.
• Contact your local sales representative, crop advisor, or
extension agent for find out if suspected resistant weeds
to these sites of action have been found in your region.
DO NOT assume that each listed weed is being con-
trolled by multiple mechanisms of action. Co-formulated
active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum
of weed control. Some weeds may be controlled by only
one of the active ingredients in this product.
• Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, such
as mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and
weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed
control program.
• Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before
and after leaving fields suspected to contain resistant
weeds.
• Manage weeds in and around fields during and after har-
vest to reduce weed seed production.
• Contact the local agricultural extension service, BASF
representative, ag retailer or crop consultant for further
guidance on weed control practices as needed.
Cleaning Spray Equipment
Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a strong
detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the
manufacturers directions and triple rinsing the equipment
before and after applying this product.
Crop Tolerance
Many crops are highly sensitive to Celebrity Plus . All
direct or indirect contact (such as spray drift) with crops
other than field corn must be avoided. Corn is generally
very tolerant to application of Celebrity Plus. Temporary
injury may occur under conditions of crop stress or rapid
growth. Crop stress can be caused by drought, poor fertili-
ty, other pesticides (i.e., other herbicides) or foliar damage
due to hail, wind or insects. Injury can be avoided by agro-
nomic practices that promote good crop growth and
minimize stress conditions and especially combinations of
stress factors. Crop leaning may occur during periods of
rapid growth, but is usually temporary and dissipates with-
in 7 days without subsequent yield reduction.
Corn 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 pro-
nounced if herbicides are applied.
Soil Insecticide Interaction Information
Before using Celebrity Plus, ensure that it is compatible
with any soil insecticides previously applied to the corn
crop (refer to use advisories given in Table 1.)

II. Application Instructions
For best performance, apply Celebrity ® Plus herbicide
to actively growing grass weeds that are within the height
ranges specified in Table 2. Refer to Table 2. Weeds
Controlled for a list of weed species controlled and best
application timing based on weed size. The most effective
control will result from making postemergence applications
of Celebrity Plus early. Delaying application permits
weeds to exceed the maximum size stated and may lead
to inadequate control. Applications made to weeds larger
than those listed on this label may vary from complete
control to suppression. Level of control will depend on the
weed species, stage of growth, and environmental
conditions.
Due to the unplanned nature of rescue applications,
choices must be made between the risks that arise from
applications made beyond the proper time for
Celebrity Plus use, and the effects of season-long weed
competition or harvest complications. These choices must
balance risks from improperly timed Celebrity Plus use
that includes, but are not limited to:
• Yield loss due to competition: Research indicates
competition from dense infestations of foxtail exceeding
4" tall may reduce corn yields. Applications to foxtail and
other annual broadleaf weeds and grasses that exceed
the sizes stated on the label increases the risk of yield
losses due to prolonged competition with the crop even
though control may be acceptable.
• Incomplete control of weeds at growth stages
beyond labeled size: Applications to weeds that
exceed the labeled sizes can result in reduced control.
This incomplete control may reduce corn yield.
• Incomplete weed control due to herbicide stress:
Weeds under stress from previous herbicide applications
may not be actively growing and susceptible to
Celebrity Plus . This stress may reduce weed control in
“rescue” situations.
For later-emerging weeds, a second application at the
same rate or a timely cultivation may be required.
Split applications may be made with a minimum of
15 days between sequential applications of
Celebrity Plus.
DO NOT exceed 9.4 ounces of Celebrity Plus per
treated acre per crop year.
Cultivation
DO NOT cultivate within 10 days before or 7 days after
applying Celebrity Plus . Cultivating 7-14 days after appli-
cation may help control suppressed weeds, weeds beyond
maximum size at application, or weeds that emerge after
applying.
Ground Application (Banding)
Follow Ground Application (Broadcast) instructions for
band applications. When applying Celebrity Plus by
banding, determine the amount of herbicide and water
volume needed using the following formula:
Bandwidth in inches x
Broadcast
rate
per acre
=
Banding
herbicide rate
per acreRow width in inches
Bandwidth in inches x

Ground Application Methods and Equipment
(Broadcast)
Water Volume: Use a minimum of 10 gallons of spray
solution per acre.
Application Equipment: DO NOT use flood, hollow
cone, whirl chamber, or controlled droplet applicator (CDA)
nozzles as erratic coverage can result in inconsistent weed
control. Refer to the nozzle manufacturers directions for
recommended position of nozzle in respect to the crop.

SPRAY DRIFT
Aerial Applications:
• DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 ft
above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater applica-
tion height is necessary for pilot safety.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and
target weeds, applicators are required to use a coarse
or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to
use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wing-
span for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade diameter
for helicopters.
• Applicators must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind
at the downwind edge of the field.
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed
toward the back of the aircraft.
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles
per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Ground Boom Applications:
• Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the
manufacturer, but no more than 3 ft above the ground
or crop canopy unless making a turf, pasture, or
rangeland application, in which case applicators may
apply with a nozzle height no more than 4 feet above
the ground.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and
target weeds, applicators are required to use a coarse
or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to
use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles
per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Boom-less Ground Applications:
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser
droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles
per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Spray Drift Advisories
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING
OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY
NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS.
Importance of Droplet Size
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large
droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest
control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray
drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are
made improperly or under unfavorable environmental
conditions.
Controlling Droplet Size Ground Boom
• Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger
droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the
highest practical spray volume for the application. If a
greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle
with a higher flow rate.
• Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommend-
ed for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and
droplet size.
• Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for
the intended application. Consider using nozzles
designed to reduce drift.
Controlling Droplet Size Aircraft
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recom-
mendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce
fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the
airflow in flight.
Boom Height Ground Boom
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with
the crop and have minimal bounce.
Boom-less Ground Applications
Setting the release height at the lowest effective height will
help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
Handheld Technology Applications
Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
Release Height Aircraft
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
Shielded Sprayers
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray
drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the
shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of
the spray on the target area.
Temperature and Humidity
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use
larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
Temperature Inversions
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Tem-
perature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of
an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or 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. Avoid applica-
tions during temperature inversions.
9
Wind
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID
APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND
CONDITIONS.
Environmental Conditions and Biological Activity
Good weed control is heightened by warm, moist condi-
tions (70°F or more) and adequate soil moisture both
before and after application. The degree and duration of
control depend on: application rate, weed spectrum, weed
size, growing conditions before and after treatment, soil
moisture, precipitation, and adjuvants. Stress affects all
weeds, but especially weeds such as field sandbur, woolly
cupgrass, green and yellow foxtail, and wild proso millet.
If weeds are under stress, delay application of
Celebrity
® Plus herbicide until the stress passes and
weeds begin to grow again.
Applications made during or immediately after periods of
extreme day/night temperature fluctuations or where day-
time temperatures do not exceed 50°F may decrease
weed control or increase crop injury. If these conditions
exist, delay application until the temperatures warm and
both weeds and the crop resume normal growth.
Ensure that equipment is set up to avoid applying an
excessive rate directly over the rows and onto the corn leaf
whorl. Use a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre for
light, scattered weed stands. Under heavy weed pressure,
dense crop foliage or moisture stress, increase volume to
at least 15 gallons of water per acre.
Ground application of Celebrity Plus to dry, dusty fields
may reduce weed control in wheel track areas.
Poor weed control or crop injury may result from applica-
tions made to plants under stress from:
• abnormally hot or cold weather
• environmental conditions such as drought, water-
saturated soils, hail damage, or frost
• disease, insect, or nematode injury
• prior herbicide, or carryover from a previous years herbi-
cide application
Delay application until stress passes and both weeds and
corn resume growth. Severe stress from conditions imme-
diately following application may also result in crop injury
or poor weed control.
As weeds mature, their sensitivity to Celebrity Plus
decreases. As grassy weeds become mature (more than
3 tillers), they may be larger than the size listed in Table 2.
When conditions exist where weeds are maturing rapidly,
apply Celebrity Plus to weeds that are smaller than those
listed in Table 2. Susceptible weeds are controlled in
7-21 days.
III. Additives
Applications of Celebrity Plus must include a nonionic
surfactant and an ammonium nitrogen fertilizer.
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
Apply 1-2 quarts of NIS per 100 gallons of spray solution
(0.25-0.5% v/v concentration). Use the higher rate in
drought conditions to enhance control. At least 50% of the
surfactant product must be active NIS.
Avoid products that do not accurately define their ingredi-
ents. Products must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients
(40 CFR 1001).
Biodegradable products are encouraged. DO NOT use
products that change the pH of the spray tank solution.
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
Use 1-2 quarts of a high-quality liquid nitrogen fertilizer
(such as 28-0-0) per acre. In place of liquid nitrogen fertiliz-
er, 1-2 pounds (or liquid equivalent) of high-quality
spray-grade ammonium sulfate (21-0-0) per acre may be
applied.
DO NOT use liquid nitrogen fertilizers without nonionic
surfactant.
Liquid nitrogen fertilizers should not be used as the total
carrier solution.
IV. Mixing Information
Additives and/or other pesticides may be mixed in the
spray tank with Celebrity Plus using the information in
this section.
Tank Mix Partners
The following herbicides may be tank mixed with
Celebrity Plus according to the instructions in section
VI. Crop-Specific Information .
• Accent
®
• atrazine
• Distinct ®
Read and follow the applicable Restrictions and
Limitations and Directions For Use on all products
involved in tank mixing. The most restrictive labeling
applies to tank mixes.
Sequential applications should be made if all target weeds
are not at the correct growth stage for treatment at the
same time. Refer to section VI. Crop-Specific
Information for more details on tank mixes and sequen-
tial applications.
Mixing with Insecticides
Celebrity Plus may also be tank mixed with pyrethroid
insecticides such as Asana
® or Pounce®, as well as
carbamate insecticides such as Furadan® and Lannate®.
Note the tank mix restrictions below for insecticides that
are not recommended in tank mixes with Celebrity Plus.
Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop
injury may result from mixing Celebrity Plus with other
pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or
miticides), additives, or fertilizers. BASF does not recom-
mend using tank mixes other than those listed on BASF
labeling.
10
Tank Mix Restrictions and Limitations
• Celebrity ® Plus herbicide should not be tank mixed
with foliar- applied organophosphate insecticides such as
Lorsban®, malathion, parathion, etc. or Ambush® EC
and Warrior® EC formulations, as severe crop injury
may occur.
• Celebrity Plus should not be tank mixed with emulsifi-
able concentrate (EC) formulations of chloroaceteamide
grass herbicides (i.e.: Dual II Magnum®, Harness®,
Outlook®, Surpass®) as crop injury may occur.
• To avoid crop injury or antagonism, apply bentazon-
containing herbicides (such as Basagran® or
Laddok® S-12), or organophosphate insecticides at
least 7 days before or 3 days after applying
Celebrity Plus.
• If antagonism occurs, complete control can be obtained
with either a timely cultivation (see Cultivation) or a sec-
ond application of Celebrity Plus (refer to Sequential
Applications in section VI. Crop-Specific
Information).
Compatibility Test for Mix Components
Before mixing additives and/or other pesticides, always
perform a compatibility jar test. For 20 gallons per acre
spray volume, use 3.3 cups (800 ml) of water. For other
spray volumes, adjust rates 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 10 cycles between compo-
nent 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 solu-
tion 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
When mixing additives and/or other pesticides in a spray
tank, add the products to be used in the following
sequence.
1) Water. Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer
tank three-quarters full of clean water.*
2) Agitation. Maintain constant agitation throughout mix-
ing and application.
3) Products in PVA bags. Place any product contained
in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait until
all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the
product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before
continuing.
4) Water-dispersible products (such as Celebrity Plus
dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concen-
trates, or suspo-emulsions).
5) Water-soluble products.
6) Emulsifiable concentrates.
7) Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN when
applicable).
8) Remaining quantity of water.
Maintain constant agitation during application.
* If the user prefers to fill the spray tank from a nurse tank containing an
AMS product dissolved in water, this is acceptable. If this method is
used, the AMS product must be totally dissolved before adding
Celebrity Plus. Celebrity Plus must be thoroughly dissolved before
adding additional products or additives. The user should verify that the
AMS pre-mix water alternative is compatible with other tank mix
components.
V. Restrictions and Limitations
• Maximum seasonal use rate: DO NOT apply more
than 9.4 ounces of Celebrity Plus (0.41 pounds of
active ingredient) per acre, per season.

Celebrity Plus per acre per season.
• When using tank mixes or sequential applications:
- The total amount of nicosulfuron (active ingredient)
applied cannot exceed 0.67 ounce per acre per appli-
cation or 1.0 ounce per acre per season.
- The total amount of dicamba (active ingredient) applied
cannot exceed 0.5 pound per acre per application or
0.75 pound per acre per season.
- The total amount of diflufenzopyr (active ingredient)
applied cannot exceed 0.1 pound per acre per applica-
tion or 0.125 pound per acre per season.
• Preharvest Interval: DO NOT apply within 32 days of
forage harvest. DO NOT apply within 72 days of corn
grain and stover harvest.
• Restricted Entry Interval (REI): 24 hours.
• Crop Failure: In case of crop failure, only field corn, field
corn grown for seed, or popcorn may be replanted.
• Stress: Poor weed control or crop injury may result from
applying Celebrity Plus to plants under stress due to
lack of moisture, hail damage, flooding, herbicide injury,
mechanical injury, or widely fluctuating temperatures.
• DO NOT apply to crops that show injury (leaf phyto-
toxicity or plant stunting) produced by any other prior
herbicide applications, because this injury may be
enhanced or prolonged.
• Rainfastness: For best performance, rainfall or irriga-
tion should not occur for 4 hours after application.
• DO NOT apply through any type of irrigation equipment.
• DO NOT apply Celebrity Plus near desirable trees or
other plants, or on areas where their roots may extend,
or in locations where the chemical may be washed or
moved into contact with their roots.
11
• Prevent drift of spray to desirable plants.
• In fields infested with Johnsongrass or fields with a previ-
ous history of corn virus, a corn hybrid with a high
degree of virus tolerance should be used. Consult your
local seed corn representative for information on
virus-tolerant hybrids.
• DO NOT apply on Long Island in the State of New York.
Crop Rotation Guidelines:
• Rotational crops vary in their response to low concentra-
tions of Celebrity
® Plus herbicide remaining in the soil.
(refer to Table 4) Celebrity Plus dissipates rapidly in
warm, acidic, microbiologically active soils.
• The amount of Celebrity Plus which may be present in
the soil depends on application rate, soil pH and organic
matter content, elapsed time since application, crop pro-
duction practices, and environmental factors.
• Injury to rotational crops may occur in high-pH, cold soils
if dry weather prevails between application and rotational
crop planting.
• Soil pH should be determined by laboratory analysis
using the 1:1 soil:water suspension method on represen-
tative soil samples taken at 0-4" depth. Soil pH varies
within fields; therefore, recropping should be based on
the highest soil pH within each field.
Consult local extension publications for recommended soil
sampling procedures.

trol of broadleaf weeds in adverse conditions for added
control or suppression of broadleaf weeds past the recom-
mended growth stages at the time of application. Apply
before corn exceeds the 10" (free standing) stage of
growth.
Sequential Applications for Field Corn
Sequential Applications with Celebrity Plus:
Annual broadleaf weeds and grasses may have more than
one flush of emerging seedlings. Also, regrowth of treated
broadleaf weeds grasses may occur due to adverse
environmental conditions following application. Perennial
grasses may regrow from underground stems or roots,
depending upon environmental conditions.
To control these weeds under these conditions, a sequen-
tial application of Celebrity Plus may be necessary. The
combined dosage of the sequential applications must not
exceed 9.4 ounces of Celebrity Plus per acre. Sequential
applications of 4.7 ounces of Celebrity Plus per acre
must be separated by at least 15 days.
Sequential Applications with Other Herbicides:
Celebrity Plus may be applied to corn after use of preplant,
pre-emergence, or early postemergence herbicides such as:
Accent, atrazine, Banvel
®, Bicep II Magnum®, Clarity®,
Dual II Magnum®, Outlook®, Guardsman Max®,
Harness®, Marksman®, or other herbicides registered for
use on corn. A single application of Celebrity Plus may be
made after using Banvel (up to 1 pint per acre), Clarity (up
to 16 fluid ounces per acre), or Marksman (up to 3.5 pints
per acre). Sequential applications with Banvel, Clarity, or
Marksman must be separated by at least 15 days. A single
application of Celebrity Plus may be made before or after
the use of Accent.
DO NOT exceed a combined rate of 4.7 ounces of
Celebrity Plus and 0.67 ounce of Accent per acre, per
season.
Before applying Celebrity Plus to popcorn, verify the
selectivity of Celebrity Plus on the popcorn hybrid with
your local seed company supplier. This precaution will help
avoid potential injury to sensitive lines.
DO NOT apply Celebrity Plus to any white popcorn
inbred or white popcorn hybrid unless specifically
approved by the seed company. This includes “White
Dynamite” popcorn. Not all popcorn hybrids have been
tested, nor does BASF have access to all data.
Consequently, BASF is not responsible for any crop injury
arising from the use of Celebrity Plus on popcorn.
Celebrity Plus may be broadcast applied to popcorn that
is 4" to 20" tall (free standing) or that exhibits up to and
including 5" leaf-collars (V5), whichever is most restrictive.
Apply Celebrity Plus at 4.7 ounces per acre. For best
performance, apply Celebrity Plus to actively growing
weeds that are within the height ranges specified in
Table 2.
DO NOT apply to popcorn that is taller than 20" or that
exhibits more than 5 leaf collars (V5), whichever is more
restrictive. Avoid direct application of spray into the whorl
of popcorn plants.
For applications to popcorn, DO NOT tank mix any dicam-
ba, 2,4-D, primisulfuron methyl or nicosulfuron containing
products with Celebrity Plus. When tank mixing with
other products, check the tank mix partner label for toler-
ances and instructions for use.
