Apply carefully with emphaSIS on sprayer cali- bration, spray pattern width. height of spray on corn plants and rate of BASFAPON. Best results are obtained by spraying when grass and weeds are small and not as tall as the corn. Use of a rotary hoe soon after corn emer- gence will delay grass and weed growth so that the corn Witt be taller than the weeds and grass when spray IS applied. QUick kill should not be expe;:ted. but treated grass and weeds Will be stunted or dl£ back and remain m a non­ competitive condition. This also discourages relnvaSlon of new seedlings.

A rate of 6 to 8 Ibs. of BASFAPON per acre may be reqUired to control !Jlld Oilts and q,uackgrass. Such amount!:: may cause stunting 01 beets and reduce yields. To minimize thiS effect. the 6 to 8 ItJ. rates should be applied as directed sprays. AVOid spraying the beet leaves. BASFAPON at 3 Ibs./acre may be used with PYRAMIN' W sugar bee! herbicide at recommended rates and times to control broadleal weeds as well. For use beyond the six-leaf stage until sugar beets are 14 Inches taU: To control annual grasses. apply as a directed spray at the rate 01 3 to 5 pounds BASFAPOO-per broadcast acre in enough water lor good grass coverage. Use the lower rate if grasses arf' very small and growing actively. Apply with leaf-lilting equipment so as to minimize spray contact with loliage. Pre-plant Fall or Spring Treatments: See belcw, "Pre-plant Application Followed by Plowing." NOTE: The spray may be applied on an overall basis or in bands. In band treatments the amount of BASFAPON needed per acre will bf3 reduced in proportion to the reduction in amount of area actually sprayed. Use no rr,ore than 8 Ibs. BASFAPON post-emergence per acre in any single growing season. Beet tops (or roots) may be fed to livestock. BASFAPON may cauc:p. stunting and yellowing. particularly under high temperatures. Flax: To control pnUIass or ~en, yellow snd giant. foxtails in flax, use '"fl'b: 01 BASFAPON per acre tn 5 to-10 gal fans 01 water when flax is 1 to 6 inches tall. For best results. use when the young grass seedltngs are less than 2 Inches tall and growtng actively. Do not expect rapid grass kill NOTE: To avoid Injury to flax. ::::"0W application directions careluny and do not exceed stated dosage. MCP or 2.4-D can be used With BASFAPON where broadleal weed control is deSired.

Precautions" following: For 1000nsongrs and bQrmuda...9-'-a_s.s!ls ,growmg under the trellis in bearing orchards of European varieties use BASFAPON at the rate of 10 Ibs./acre (broadcast basis). Use 100 gallons of spray/acre treated. Apply as a directed spray in a band 30 inches Wide centered on the row. Apply when grasses are growing vigorously and before heading. Make application so as to just wet the grass without run-off to the SOIL Repeat application if needed but do not apply more than twice per year. Keep spray off crop foliage and fruit. Do not spray over irrigation furrows. Do not spray within 30 ays of harvest. Do not graze livestock on treated aieas. Precautions to AVOid Grape.lnluy: AVOid spraying grape foliage. Do not use on young. non-bearing orchards. Do not exceed dosages given French-plowing (Kirby plow) before spraying is not advisable as grass emergence IS delayed and second application cannot be made wltho;:·. spraying vine foliage, ·t··' •• :. ,~.

Apply as directed spray as a 4-8 ft. band on each side of tree row. or apply as spot treatment only to areas where grasses are present. For band or spot treatment the amount of spray should be reduced in proportion to area actually sprayed. Spr 'y when grasses are growing vigorously but belOre heading. Repeat application if necessary but make no more than two applications per year. Keep spray off crop foliage and fruit. Do not apply Within 30 days of harvest. Do not graze livestock on treated areas. Peas: To control seedling grasses, use one lb. of BASFAPON per acre in enough water for good spray ~verage, Keep spray off crop foliage and fruit. Apply at least 25 days prior to harvest when the grass seedlings are young. the peas are 2 to 6 inches tall. and have 4 to 6 nodes. BASFAPON can be used in a combination spray with DNBP to control both broadleaf weeds and grasst.s. Fresh pea vines or pea silage may be fed to livestock if desired. but do not feed pea vine hay. Potatoes: Pre-emergence Treatment: To control seedling grasses. use 3 Ibs. of BASFAPON per acre in enough water to wet the grass evenly. Apply before emergence of the potatoes when grass plants are small. This appli­ cation can be a combination spray with DNBP amine. Where quackgrass comes up after planting but before potatoes emerge. use up to' 10 Ibs.(if BASFAPON per acre and wet the grass well. NOTE: Do not apply BASFAPON after potato plants emerge Do not use on land planted to red-skinned var­ ieties or White Rose. Spring Pre-planting Treatment: For quackgrass control use 8 Ibs. of BASFAPON per acre. After 4 days land can be plowed and potatoes planted immediately if normal soil moisture is present. Late Season Grass Control: Use 5 Ibs, of BASFAPON in 15 to 25 gallons of water per acre. Make application after lay-by when grass seeds have germinated but before the grass seedlings are 3 inches tall. Use leaf-lifters and direct the spray so tt)at il will cover Ihe lOps C'! the rows and the middies but will get a minimum :11 spray on the potato foliage. Fall Pre-planting Treatment: See below. "Pre-plant Applications Followed by PlOWing," SU.9!.!...~ne: Usel5to1o of BASFAPON per acre (overall coverage) as a pre-emergence or dlieeletl post-emergence application to control such grasses as lohnsongrass, bermudagrass and alexandergrass.

1. Fall Treatment to Control Quackgrass: Use 10 to 15 Ibs. of BASFAPON per acre on land to be planted to crops such as beans. corn, potatoes, and sugar beets the follOWing spring. Application can be made dunng Septem· ber or October and pOssibly later in some areas. but the quackgrass should be growing well when treated. Treated areas can be plowed down in 10 to 20 days. or plowing can be delayed until spring. With some established sods improved control will be obtained if the sod is first plowed and the quack­ grass regrowth sprayed.
2. Spring Treatment to Control Quackgrass: Early spring application of 8 Ibs. of BASFAPON per acre can reduce ~ackgrass on land to be planted to crops such as beans, corn, oats, potato e., and wheat about 5 to 6 weeks later. Spray when grass 154 t06inches tall and growing well. After spraying. wait at least 4 days before plowing down. and another 4 to. 6 weeks before planting susceptible crops. If soil is unusually dry. a longer waiting period will be necessary to avoid crop injury. NOTE: BASFAPON IS not cleared for use on cereal grains other than oats and wheat.
3. Spring Treatment to ContrOl Johnsongra .. : Use 8 to 10 Ibs. of BASFAPON per acre to control established johnsongrass on land to be planted to cotton. soybeans. CQ!D. and sorghum. Often. lower rates in the range of 5 to fIbS. will provide control. Spray when grass is 8 to 12 inches t .. 11 and is growing vigorously. Wait 3 days. then plow or deep-disk. One or more additional diskings prior to planting are suggested For corn or soybeans wait at least 5 days after plowing before planting and for sorghum walt at least 2'12 weeks. Cotton may be planted immediately after plOWing. NOTE: If soil remains unusually dry after plOWing or deep-dlsklng. a longer waiting period may be needed to aVOid crop Injury. Under such conditions delay planting until at least 5 days after receiving a minimum of 0.5 Inch of rain.
