3 Surface Water Advisory DO NOT apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwa- ter or rinsate. This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff or rainwater. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow groundwater. This product is classified as having a 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 including ponds, streams, and springs will reduce potential loading of pyroxasulfone and its degradation product, [5-(difluoromethoxy)-1- methyl-3- (trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]methanesulfonic acid (M1), from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding application when rainfall is forecast to occur within 48 hours. Point-source Contamination. To prevent point-source contamination, DO NOT mix or load this or any other pes- ticide within 50 feet of wells (including abandoned wells and drainage wells, sinkholes, perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, and natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs). This setback does not apply to properly capped or plugged abandoned wells and does not apply to impervious pad or dike mixing/loading areas as described below. Mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing oper- ations 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% of 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 washwater, 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 back-siphoning into wells, spills, or improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixes, or rinsates. Check valves or anti-siphoning devices must be used on all mixing equipment. Endangered Species Protection Requirements This product may have effects on federally listed threat- ened or endangered plant species or their critical habitat. When using this product, you must follow the measures contained in the Endangered Species Protection Bulletin for the county or parish in which you are applying the pesticide. To determine whether your county or parish has a Bulletin, and to obtain that Bulletin, consult http://www.epa.gov/espp/, or call 1-844-447-3813 no more than 6 months before using this product. Applicators must use Bulletins that are in effect in the month in which the pesticide will be applied. New Bulletins will be available from the above sources 6 months before their effective dates.

Product Information Zidua® herbicide is a selective rate-dependent residual preemergence herbicide for controlling annual grass weeds, sedges, and annual broadleaf weeds (including biotypes resistant to ACCase inhibitors, ALS inhibitors, and glyphosate) that infest celery, chickpea, corn, cotton, dry bulb onions, fallow, leek, mint, peanut, perennial cool- season grasses grown for seed production, potato, safflower, soybean, and sunflower listed in Table 1 and wheat listed in Table 2. Refer to Crop-specific Information section for use directions specific to each labeled crop. Periods of dry weather following application of Zidua may reduce herbicidal effectiveness. Zidua must be activated by at least 1/2 inch of rainfall or irrigation before weed ger- mination and emergence. When Zidua is not activated and weeds emerge, a labeled postemergence herbicide or shallow cultivation may be needed to control weed escapes. Zidua does not control emerged weeds. Herbicidal activity of Zidua may be reduced if trash on the soil surface from the previous crop covers more than 25% of the application area. Manage trash levels if needed with combine straw shredder/spreaders, earlier burndown of emerged weeds, or light tillage. [Note to PM: Page 4 of 27]

Even though Zidua will control these species, some weed escapes are possible. Multiple herbicides with multiple different effective sites of action MUST be used in tank mix- tures or sequentially to limit these weed escapes to prevent or delay the onset of herbicide-resistant weed biotypes. 2 For control of these weeds, a tank mix partner or a sequentially applied herbicide partner is needed. [Note to PM: Page 6 of 27]

7 Mode of Action Zidua® herbicide acts to inhibit very long-chain fatty acid synthesis as a Group 15 (WSSA)/Group K3 (HRAC) her- bicide. It is a root-and-shoot growth inhibitor that controls susceptible germinating seedlings before or soon after they emerge from the soil. Herbicide Resistance Management Zidua is a Group 15/Group K3 herbicide. Any weed pop- ulation may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to Zidua and other Group 15 herbicides. Weed species with resistance to Group 15 may eventually dominate the weed population if Group 15 herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field or in successive years as the primary meth- od of control for targeted species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by Zidua or other Group 15 herbicides. To delay herbicide resistance consider: • Avoiding the consecutive use of Zidua or other target- site-of-action Group 15 herbicides that have a similar target site of action on the same weed species. • Using tank mixes or premixes with herbicides from differ- ent target-site-of-action groups as long as the involved products are all registered for the same use, have differ- ent sites of action, and are both effective at the tank mix or prepack rate on the weed(s) of concern. • Basing herbicide use on a comprehensive IPM ( Integrated Pest Management) program including cultural and mechanical methods. • Monitoring treated weed populations for loss of field effi- cacy, and control of escapes with effective alternative herbicides or mechanical methods. • Identify weeds present in the field through scouting and field history and understand their biology. The weed- control program needs to consider all of the weeds present. • Scout fields prior to application to identify the weed spe- cies present and their growth stage to determine if the intended application will be effective. • Scout fields after application to verify the treatment was effective. • Suspected herbicide-resistance weeds may be identified by these indicators:

1. Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if con- trol is achieved on adjacent weeds;
2. A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a partic- ular weed species; and
3. Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. • If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide with a different MOA and/or use non-chemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production. • Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed species to your local BASF representative. • Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or manufacturer for herbicide resistance management and/or integrated weed management directions for specific crops and resistant weed biotypes. Crop Response No crop injury is expected when Zidua is applied accord- ing to label directions and under normal environmental conditions. Application to crops under stress because of inadequate or excess of moisture for normal crop develop- ment, cool and hot temperatures, sodic soils, poorly drained soils, hail damage, flooding, pesticide injury, mechanical injury, or widely fluctuating temperatures may result in crop injury. Application Instructions Application rates of Zidua may vary depending on soil tex- ture. Refer to Table 3 for soil texture groups used in this label unless a specific soil texture is mentioned. When use rates are in ranges, apply the low rate for soils with coarse texture or low organic matter; apply the high rates for fine soil textures, high organic matter, heavy soil surface plant residue, or heavy weed pressure. Table 3. Soil Texture Groups Coarse Medium Fine Sand Loamy sand Sandy loam Loam Silt loam Silt Sandy clay loam Sandy clay Silty clay loam Silty clay Clay loam Clay Zidua may be used on peat soils and muck soils, and mineral soils with 10% or more organic matter , but weed control may be inconsistent and/or reduced. Use maximum labeled use rate allowed in the specific crop. Use Table 4 to determine the corresponding amounts of active ingredient (pyroxasulfone) from Zidua product use rates.

Refer to the Crop-specific Information section for specific applica- tion instructions (timings, rates, restrictions and precautions) by crop. Preplant Surface Application. Apply Zidua alone or in tank mix within 45 days of planting. If weeds are present at the time of application, use additional weed control meth- ods, for example a tank mix with an appropriate postemergence herbicide(s), to control emerged weeds. Preplant Incorporated (PPI) Application. Incorporate Zidua into the upper (1 to 2 inches) soil surface within 14 days of planting. Deeper incorporation may increase the potential for crop injury and also may result in reduced weed control. Use appropriate equipment for uniform shal- low incorporation, including a field cultivator, harrow, rolling cultivator, or finishing disc. Preemergence Surface Application. After planting and before crop emergence, apply a uniform broadcast treat- ment to the soil surface. Apply Zidua only to a uniform seedbed which is firm and free of clods, cracks, excess trash (previous crop residue), and weed growth. If weeds are present, apply Zidua in a tank mix with an appropriate postemergence herbicide, for example a glyphosate- containing product. Early Postemergence Application. Zidua must be applied and activated before weed seedling emergence or in a tank mixture that controls emerged weeds. Zidua will not control emerged weeds. Weeds that are already emerged at the time of application must be controlled with cultivation, tank mix or sequential application of another herbicide labeled for postemergence control of the target weeds in the crop. Postemergence-directed (Layby) Application. Zidua must be applied as a directed spray between crop rows and activated before weed seedling emergence or in a tank mix that controls emerged weeds. Zidua will not con- trol emerged weeds. Weeds that are already emerged at the time of application must be controlled with cultivation, tank mix or sequential application of another herbicide labeled for postemergence control of the target weeds in the crop. Fall/Winter Application for controlling weeds germi- nating in the fall, or winter weeds. Zidua may be broadcast surface applied in the fall or winter after crop harvest. DO NOT apply to frozen or snow-covered soil. Tillage operations may be conducted before or after apply- ing Zidua. If tillage is used following an application, tillage must be shallow (no more than 2-inches deep) to uniformly incorporate the herbicide into the upper soil surface. Application Methods and Equipment Zidua may be applied by aerial or ground application or by chemigation application via sprinkler or drip irrigation. Thorough spray coverage is required for optimum weed control and can be improved with proper nozzle and spray volume selection. Use and configure application equip- ment to provide an adequate spray volume, an accurate and uniform distribution of spray droplets over the treated area. Adjust equipment to maintain continuous agitation during spraying with good mechanical or bypass agitation. Avoid overlaps that will increase rates above the use rates specified in this label. Zidua may be applied using water or sprayable fluid nitrogen fertilizer solutions as the spray carrier. DO NOT apply this product without dilution in a spray carrier. Addi- tionally, Zidua may be impregnated on and applied with dry bulk fertilizer. Spray Mix Preparation Advisory Always pre-dissolve Zidua before adding it into the spray tank. When dissolving Zidua for a spray mix, use a minimum of 4 gallons water per container of Zidua (80 ounces) in an external container (e.g. 5-gallon bucket) or in the sprayer induction system with constant agitation. DO NOT pour Zidua straight into the sprayer inductor system without minimum water and agitation. Aerial Spray Carrier Volume. Use 3 or more gallons of water per acre. The actual minimum spray volume per acre is determined by the spray equipment used. Use adequate spray volume to provide accurate and uniform distribution of spray particles over the treated area. Ground Spray Carrier Volume. Use 5 or more gallons of water per treated acre or 15 or more gallons of sprayable fluid nitrogen fertilizer per treated acre for weed control application.

9 Mandatory Spray Drift Management 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 all applications, applicators are required to use a medium to ultra coarse spray 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 Applications • Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or crop canopy. • For all applications, applicators are required to use a medium to ultra coarse spray 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 environmen- tal 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 Volume. Increasing the spray volume so that larger drop- lets 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 recommended 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 recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight. Boom Height - Ground Boom Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide uniform coverage. For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce. Release Height - Aircraft Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. When applying aerially to crops, DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety. 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 Inversion 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. Wind Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift. Chemigation Application via Sprinkler and Drip Irrigation Systems Zidua® herbicide may be applied as a chemigation treat- ment through sprinkler irrigation systems. Apply this product ONLY through a sprinkler irrigation system of the following type: center pivot, end tow, hand move, lateral move, side (wheel) roll, or solid set. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of sprinkler irrigation system. Zidua may also be applied as a chemigation treatment through drip irrigation systems. All chemigation precau- tions mentioned in this label for sprinkler irrigation systems also apply for drip irrigation systems. [Note to PM: Page 9 of 27]

10 Application may be made alone or in tank mixtures with other herbicides on this label registered for use in specified sprinkler or drip irrigation systems. Application must be made within specific crop stage timings and product use rates given in the container label Directions For Use . Uniform distribution of Zidua ® herbicide-treated irrigation water is the sole responsibility of the applicator and is required to avoid crop injury, lack of herbicide effective- ness, or illegal pesticide residue in the crop. If you have questions about calibration, contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. Proper calibration is the responsibility of the applicator. The system must be properly calibrated (with water only) to ensure the amount of Zidua applied corresponds to the specified rate. Apply Zidua in volume minimums of 0.33 to 0.67 inch of water using the lower volume for coarse- texture soils and the higher volume for fine-texture soils. Application made in high volumes of water (more than 1 inch) may result in reduced weed control. Meter herbicide dilution into irrigation water through the entire time of water application for center pivot and lateral move sprinkler systems. For solid-set and hand-move sprinkler irrigation systems and drip irrigation systems, apply Zidua through the system at the beginning of the set; then follow with additional water to reach volume mini- mums as listed by soil type. To increase calibration accuracy of injection metering equipment, dilute Zidua in a minimum of 3 parts water to 1 part Zidua. Maintain agita- tion in injection nurse tanks to keep a uniform herbicide suspension during application. Special Restrictions for Chemigation:

1. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
2. DO NOT connect an irrigation system used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
3. A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments if the need arises.
4. Tail water (runoff water) from chemigation that contains Zidua needs be recirculated and/or contained in the field in a cistern or holding reservoir from the initial appli- cation and/or used only on adjacent, approved crops for which Zidua is registered for this type of application.
5. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function- al, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. It must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
6. The sprinkler chemigation system must contain a func- tional check valve, vacuum-relief valve, and low-pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from backflow. In addition, systems must use a metering pump, for example a positive displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesti- cides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
7. The sprinkler chemigation system must contain function- al interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesti- cide distribution is adversely affected.
8. The irrigation line or water pump must include a func- tional pressure switch that will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems:
9. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.
10. Chemigation systems connected to public water sys- tems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone backflow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesti- cide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system needs be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
11. All chemigation systems connected to public water sys- tems must also follow restrictions listed in the preceding section. Ground Application (Dry Bulk Fertilizer) Zidua may be impregnated or coated onto dry bulk granu- lar fertilizer carriers for residual soil surface (fall, preplant surface, preplant incorporated) applications or for residual weed control from postemergence over-the-top of cotton applications. Impregnation or coating may be conducted by in-plant bulk or on-board systems. Perform the mixing operation in well-ventilated areas. All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk granular fertilizer blending, registration, labeling, and application are the responsibility of the individual and/or company selling the herbicide/fertilizer mixture. Zidua may be impregnated on many commonly used dry fertilizers. DO NOT impregnate on ammonium nitrate, fer- tilizers containing ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, or powdered limestone. Fertilizer application rates of at least 200 lbs to 700 lbs per acre of herbicide and fertilizer blend will provide adequate [Note to PM: Page 10 of 27]

11 distribution or coverage of Zidua® herbicide across the soil surface. Application of impregnated fertilizer must be made uniformly to the soil to prevent possible crop injury and offer satisfactory weed control. Impregnated fertilizer spread at half rate and overlapped to obtain a full rate offers a more uniform distribution. A shallow (less than 2 inches) incorporation is desirable for improved weed control. Deeper incorporation dilutes the herbicide layer near the soil surface and may result in unsatisfactory weed control. To calculate the herbicide rate when using dry bulk fertiliz- er applications: [ozs of Zidua per acre X 2000] = ozs of Zidua for pounds fertilizer per acre 1 ton of fertilizer To impregnate Zidua on bulk fertilizer, use a closed rotary-drum mixer or other commonly used dry bulk fertil- izer blender equipped with suitable spray equipment. Mix Zidua with sufficient water to form a sprayable slurry mix- ture. Spray nozzles must be directed to provide uniform fertilizer coverage while avoiding spray contact with mixing equipment. Nonuniform impregnation can cause crop inju- ry or unsatisfactory performance. Spray herbicide mixture onto fertilizer after blending has started. Addition of a suit- able drying agent may be necessary if the fertilizer and herbicide blend is too wet for uniform application due to high humidity, high urea concentration, or low fertilizer use rate. Slowly add the drying agent to the blend until a flow- able mixture is obtained. Drying agents are not intended for use with on-board impregnation systems. Under some conditions, fertilizer impregnated with Zidua may clog air tubes or deflector plates on pneumatic appli- cation systems. Mineral oil may be added to Zidua before blending with fertilizer to reduce plugging. DO NOT use drying agents when mineral oil is used. To avoid separation of Zidua and mineral oil mixes in cold temperatures, keep mixture heated or agitated before blending with fertilizer. Mineral oil may be used with inplant blending stations or with on-board injection systems. Uniformly apply the treated fertilizer with accurately cali- brated and proper equipment immediately after impregnation to avoid lump formation and spreading difficulties. Accurate calibration of fertilizer application equipment and uniform fertilizer distribution is essential for satisfactory weed control. Cleaning Spray Equipment Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the manufacturer’s directions. Triple rinse the equipment before and after applying Zidua. Additives Zidua is formulated to provide optimal residual pre- emergence weed control. However, several tank mixes with Zidua may require an adjuvant to improve burndown of emerged weeds. Therefore, an adjuvant may be used with Zidua tank mixes that are applied fall, preplant, preemergence, or early postemergence. Follow the adju- vant directions for the tank mix partner of Zidua. Tank Mixing Information It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products in the mixtures are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limita- tions and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive direc- tions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Zidua may be tank mixed or applied sequentially with other herbicide products registered for use in any labeled crop found in this label for a broader spectrum of residual weed control and/or control of emerged weeds. Refer to the tank mix product labels to confirm that the respective tank mix products are registered for use on the labeled crop. Follow the adjuvant directions for the tank mix part- ner of Zidua. Read and follow tank mix product labels for application instructions, use restrictions and precautions, and rotational cropping guidance. Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop injury may result from mixing Zidua with other pesticides, additives, or fertilizers. Compatibility Test for Tank Mix Products Before mixing components, always perform a compatibility jar test.

1. 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.
2. Add components in the sequence indicated in the mix- ing order using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon for each pint of label rate per acre.
3. Always cap the jar and invert 10 cycles between com- ponent additions.
4. When the components have all been added to the jar, let the solution stand for 15 minutes.
5. Evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. The spray solution must not have free oil on the surface, or fine particles that precipitate to the bottom, or thick (clabbered) texture. If the spray solution is not compati- ble, 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. [Note to PM: Page 11 of 27]

12 Mixing Order Maintain agitation throughout mixing and application until spraying is completed.

1. Water - Fill tank 1/2 to 3/4 full with clean water and start agitation.
2. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
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-soluble additives (dry and liquid fertilizers including ammonium sulfate or urea ammonium nitrate)
5. Water-dispersible products (including dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo- emulsions) - Add Zidua ® herbicide at this point in the mixing process.
6. Water-soluble products
7. Emulsifiable concentrates (including methylated seed oil adjuvants)
8. Remaining quantity of water If the spray mixture is allowed to settle for any period of time, thorough agitation is essential to resuspend the mix- ture before spraying is resumed. Continue agitation while spraying. Use Restrictions • Maximum use rate - Refer to Crop- specific Information section for maximum application use rates of Zidua in each crop and use pattern. • Refer to Crop-specific Information for additional crop use restrictions. • DO NOT contaminate irrigation ditches or water used for domestic purposes. • Irrigation - DO NOT use flood irrigation to apply, acti- vate, or incorporate Zidua. • Zidua is not for sale, distribution, or use in Nassau and Suffolk counties in New York State. • Emergency replanting intervals - If a labeled crop treated with Zidua is lost to crop failure (because of envi- ronmental factors including drought, frost, hail, etc.), the crop may be replanted immediately. However, DO NOT repeat application of Zidua after crop failure. A sequen- tial application can be made as long as the maximum cumulative rate for the crop and soil per year is not exceeded. Use Precautions • Crop rotation intervals - Use Table 5 to determine the proper interval between Zidua application and the plant- ing of rotational crops. Determine the crop rotation interval for tank mix products, and use the most restric- tive interval of all products applied. Table 5.

Crop-specific Precautions • Crop response - The use of Zidua may result in tem- porary growth suppression, leaf burn, and/or other injury or stand reduction to dry bulb onions under stressful conditions including inadequate or excessive moisture, extended periods of water-saturated soil occur during early transplant growth and development, cool and hot temperatures, compacted soils, injury from other pesti- cides, disease or other pest damage, mechanical injury, nutrient imbalances, or other conditions known to cause plant stress. Peanut Zidua may be applied early postemergence to peanut for residual preemergence control of listed weeds ( Table 1). Use Zidua as part of a weed control program in peanut either in combination or sequen tially with other herbicides for a broader spectrum of weed control and/or control of emerged weeds. Before applying to peanut, verify with your local seed company (supplier) the selectivity of Zidua on your variety to avoid potential injury. Application Rate Apply Zidua in peanut at the residual rates provided in Table 12. Table 12. Residual Rates of Zidua in Peanut Application Timing Use Rate by Soil Texture1 (ozs/A) Coarse Medium Fine Early postemergence 1.5 to 2.1 1.5 to 2.1 1.5 to 2.1 1 Refer to Table 3 for definition of soil-texture groups. Application Timing Zidua may be applied in a single application or in sequen- tial applications. Early Postemergence Application Apply Zidua at use rates specified in Table 12 as a broad- cast spray to peanut from “at- cracking” stage to first true leaf stage through beginning of pod development stage. Zidua applications to emerged peanut may result in tem- porary leaf burn and stunting, but a reduction in peanut yield is unexpected. Tank mixes of Zidua with other crop protection products or adjuvants may significantly enhance this effect. Depending upon growing conditions, recovery from this injury begins immediately but may take several weeks for the injury to dissipate entirely. Adjuvants may be applied with Zidua when making early postemergence applications. Sequential Applications If a sequential application program of Zidua is used (e.g. consecutive postemergence applications), the maxi- mum combined rate of Zidua that may be applied per year is 5.0 ozs/A (0.266 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) on all soils. State-specific use in Texas in areas west of Interstate 35. Apply Zidua early postemergence at 1.5 ozs/A. Use of Zidua may result in growth suppression if heavy rainfall or irrigation (> 2 inches) occur after applica- tion. If a sequential application program of Zidua is used (e.g. consecutive postemergence applications), the maxi- mum combined rate of Zidua that may be applied in peanut per year is 3.0 ozs/A on all soils. Separate sequen- tial applications by at least 21 days. [Note to PM: Page 17 of 27]

Application Timing Zidua may only be applied in a single application. Preemergence Surface Application Apply Zidua at use rates specified in Table 14 as a broad- cast spray to the soil surface after planting or drag-off, but before crop emergence. Where “drag off” is practiced, DO NOT apply Zidua until the “drag off” process is com- plete and there is a minimum of 2 inches of soil covering [Note to PM: Page 18 of 27]

19 the vegetative portion of the potato plants, or Zidua® herbicide may be applied after hilling but prior to potato or weed emergence, or Zidua may be applied where potato hills are harrowed and re-hilled and sprayed, but application must be prior to potato and weed emergence. There must be 2 inches of soil covering the seed piece and/or sprout/ vegetation. Care must be exercised so that “drag off” implements do not injure the plants. Efficacy will be reduced if later cultural practices expose untreated soil. Apply Zidua only to a uniform seedbed which is firm and free of clods and cracks. The seedbed must be prepared to ensure good seed piece row closure and soil coverage of the seed pieces. Crop-specific Restrictions • On coarse soils - DO NOT apply more than 1.5 ozs/A of Zidua (0.08 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single yearly application. • On all soils other than coarse - DO NOT apply more than 2.0 ozs/A of Zidua (0.106 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single yearly application. • DO NOT apply Zidua prior to planting potato seed pieces. • DO NOT apply Zidua to emerging or emerged potato as severe crop injury will occur. • There is no required (preharvest) interval between a preemergence application of Zidua and the harvest of potato. Crop-specific Precautions • The use of Zidua may result in temporary growth sup- pression in potato under stressful conditions, including inadequate or excessive moisture or rainfall, cool and hot temperatures, compacted or crusted soils, improper planting depth, injury from other pesticides, disease or other pest damage, mechanical injury, nutrient imbalanc- es, or other conditions known to cause plant stress. Safflower Zidua may be applied preemergence to safflower for residual preemergence weed control. Use Zidua as part of a weed control program in safflower either in combina- tion or sequentially with other herbicides for a broader spectrum of weed control and/or control of emerged weeds. Before applying to safflower, verify with your local seed company (supplier), university extension specialist (e.g., weed scientist, county agent, etc.), or BASF representative the selectivity of Zidua on your hybrid/variety to avoid potential injury. Application Rate Apply Zidua in safflower at the residual rates provided in Table 15. Table 15.

20 Soybean Zidua® herbicide may be applied preplant surface, pre- plant incorporated, preemergence, early postemergence, or in the fall to soybean for residual preemergence control of listed weeds (Table 1). Use Zidua as part of a weed control program in soybean either in combination or sequen tially with other herbicides for a broader spectrum of weed control and/or control of emerged weeds. Before applying to soybean, verify with your local seed company (supplier) the selectivity of Zidua on your variety to avoid potential injury. Application Rate Apply Zidua in soybean at the residual rates in Table 16. Table 16. Residual Rates of Zidua in Soybean Application Timing Use Rate by Soil Texture1 (ozs/A) Coarse Medium Fine Preplant Surface 1.5 to 2.1 2.0 to 3.0 2.5 to 3.5 Preplant Incorporated 1.5 to 2.1 2.0 to 3.0 2.5 to 3.5 Preemergence 1.5 to 2.1 2.0 to 3.0 2.5 to 3.5 Early Postemergence 1.0 to 2.1 1.5 to 3.0 2.0 to 3.5 1 Refer to Table 3 for definition of soil-texture groups. Application Timing Zidua may be applied in a single application or in sequen- tial applications. Fall/Winter Application for controlling weeds germinating in the fall, or winter annual weeds Zidua may be broadcast surface applied in the fall or win- ter to control winter annual weeds and other weeds germinating in the fall. Use on coarse, medium, or fine soils at rates listed for the preplant surface timing. Sequential preemergence and/or postemergence applications can be made, but DO NOT exceed the maximum cumulative rate allowed by soil type per year. See the main Application Timings section of this label for further application instructions. Early Preplant Surface Application (within 15 to 45 days of planting) Use application rates in Table 16 when making preplant surface applications, using the highest application rate for a given soil texture. Preplant surface applications are not advised on coarse soils or in areas where average annual rainfall (or rainfall plus irrigation) typically exceeds 40 inches. Preplant Surface or Preplant Incorporated Application (within 14 days of planting) Apply Zidua at the use rates specified in Table 16 as a broadcast spray to the soil surface or incorporated before planting on all soil types. Preemergence Surface Application Apply Zidua at use rates specified in Table 16 as a broad- cast spray to the soil surface after planting and before crop emergence. Early Postemergence Application Apply Zidua at use rates specified in Table 16 as a postemergence broadcast spray to soybean from emer- gence (cracking stage) to sixth-trifoliate leaf stage. Zidua applications to emerged soybeans may result in temporary leaf burn and stunting, but a reduction in soybean yield is unexpected. Tank mixes of Zidua with other crop protec- tion products or adjuvants may significantly enhance this effect. Depending upon growing conditions, recovery from this injury begins immediately but may take several weeks for the injury to dissipate entirely. Sequential Application If a sequential application program of Zidua is used (e.g. fall application followed by spring application, or sequential applications in the spring), the maximum com- bined rate of Zidua that may be applied per year is 2.1 ozs/A (0.112 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) on coarse soils or 3.5 ozs/A (0.186 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) on medium-to- fine soils. Crop-specific Restrictions • On coarse soil - DO NOT apply more than 2.1 ozs/A of Zidua (0.112 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single applica- tion or as a maximum cumulative amount from sequential applications in soybean per year. • On medium soil:

• DO NOT apply more than 3.0 ozs/A of Zidua (0.159 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single application.
• DO NOT apply more than a maximum cumulative amount of 3.5 ozs/A of Zidua (0.186 lb ai/A pyroxasulfone) from sequential applications in soybean per year. • On fine soil - DO NOT apply more than 3.5 ozs/A of Zidua (0.186 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single applica- tion or as a maximum cumulative amount from sequential applications in soybean per year. • Maximum number of applications per year: 2 • Separate sequential applications by at least 14 days. • There is no required (preharvest) interval between a preplant, preemergence, or early postemergence application of Zidua and the harvest of soybean grain. Crop-specific Precautions • Seeding depth - Soybean seed must be planted a minimum 1-inch deep. • The use of Zidua may result in temporary growth sup- pression in soybean if extreme conditions of high rainfall and extended periods of water-saturated soil occur during soybean germination or early seedling development.

21 Sunflower Zidua® herbicide may be applied preplant surface, pre- emergence, or early postemergence to sunflower for residual preemergence control of listed weeds ( Table 1). Use Zidua as part of a weed control program in sunflower either in combination or sequen tially with other herbicides for a broader spectrum of weed control and/or control of emerged weeds. Before applying to sunflower, verify with your local seed company (supplier), university extension specialist (e.g. weed scientist, county agent, etc.), or BASF representative the selectivity of Zidua on your hybrid/ variety to avoid potential injury. Application Rate Apply Zidua in sunflower at the residual rates provided in Table 17. Table 17. Residual Rates of Zidua in Sunflower Application Timing Use Rate by Soil Texture1 (ozs/A) Coarse Medium Fine Preplant surface 1.0 to 1.5 1.5 to 3.0 3.0 to 4.0 Preemergence 1.0 to 1.5 1.5 to 3.0 3.0 to 4.0 Early postemergence 1.0 to 1.5 1.0 to 2.0 1.0 to 2.0 1 Refer to Table 3 for definition of soil-texture groups. Application Timing Zidua may be applied in a single application or in sequen- tial applications. Fall/Winter Application for controlling weeds germinating in the fall, or winter annual weeds. Zidua may be broadcast surface applied in the fall or win- ter to control winter annual weeds and other weeds germinating in the fall. Use on coarse, medium, or fine soils at rates listed for the preplant surface timing. Sequential preemergence and/or postemergence applications can be made, but DO NOT exceed the maximum cumulative rate allowed by soil type per year. See the main Application Timings section of this label for further application instructions. Early Preplant Surface Application (within 15 to 45 days of planting) Use application rates in Table 17 when making preplant surface applications, using the highest application rate within the rate range for a given soil texture. Preplant sur- face applications are not advised on coarse soils or in areas where average annual rainfall (or rainfall plus irriga- tion) typically exceeds 40 inches. Preplant Surface Application (within 14 days of planting) Apply Zidua at the use rates specified in Table 17 as a broadcast spray to the soil surface before planting on all soil types. Preemergence Surface Application Apply Zidua at use rates specified in Table 17 as a broad- cast spray to the soil surface after planting and before crop emergence. Early Postemergence Application Apply Zidua at use rates specified in Table 17 as a broad- cast spray to sunflower from first true leaf (leaf at least 1.5 inches long, V1 stage) through eight leaf stage (V8). Zidua applications to emerged sunflower may result in temporary leaf burn and stunting, but a reduction in sun- flower yield is unexpected. Adjuvants may be applied with Zidua when making early postemergence applications. Sequential Applications If a sequential application program of Zidua is used (e.g. fall application followed by spring application, or sequential spring applications including preplant surface or preemergence application followed by postemergence application or consecutive postemergence applications), the maximum combined rate of Zidua that may be applied per year is 1.5 ozs/A (0.08 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) on coarse soils and 5.0 ozs/A (0.266 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) on medium-to-fine soils. Crop-specific Restrictions • On coarse soil - DO NOT apply more than 1.5 ozs/A of Zidua (0.08 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single applica- tion or as a maximum cumulative amount from sequential applications in sunflower per year. • On all soils other than coarse:

• DO NOT apply more than 4.0 ozs/A of Zidua (0.213 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single application.
• DO NOT apply more than a maximum cumulative amount of 5.0 ozs/A of Zidua (0.266 lb ai/A pyroxasulfone) from sequential applications in sunflower per year. • Maximum number of applications per year: 3 • Separate sequential applications by at least 14 days. • DO NOT apply Zidua preplant incorporated to sunflower. • DO NOT apply Zidua to sunflower at cracking or cotyledon stage. • DO NOT apply a tank mix of Zidua and Beyond ® herbicide on Clearfield ® sunflower hybrids/varieties. • There is no required (preharvest) interval between a pre- plant and preemergence application of Zidua and sunflower harvest. [Note to PM: Page 21 of 27]

22 • DO NOT apply Zidua® herbicide postemergence less than 60 days before harvest of sunflower seed. Crop-specific Precautions • Sunflower seed quality - Plant high quality seed. • Seedbed preparation - The seedbed MUST be pre- pared to ensure good seed row closure and soil coverage of the seed. • The use of Zidua may result in temporary growth sup- pression or leaf burn in sunflower under stressful conditions including inadequate or excessive soil mois- ture or rainfall, cool and hot temperatures, compacted or crusted soils, improper planting depth, injury from other pesticides, disease or other pest damage, mechanical injury, nutrient imbalances, or other conditions known to cause plant stress. • If Zidua is tank mixed with another herbicide other than glyphosate or a graminicide, use a lower rate within the Zidua rate range for the application timing and soil tex- ture (as specified in Table 17). Wheat Zidua may be applied preplant surface, preemergence, delayed preemergence, or early postemergence in fall-seeded or spring-seeded wheat for residual pre- emergence control or suppression of listed weeds (Table 2) and suppression of other listed weeds (Table 1). Use Zidua as part of a weed control program in wheat either in combination or sequentially with other herbicides for a broader spectrum of weed control and/or control of emerged weeds. Crop Response Zidua applied preplant surface or preemergence can cause wheat injury. Under stressful conditions (including inadequate or excessive moisture, cool or hot tempera- tures, compacted soils, injury from other pesticides, disease or other pest damage, mechanical injury, nutrient imbalances, or other conditions known to cause plant stress), Zidua injury will be in intensified. No crop injury is expected when Zidua is applied delayed preemergence or early postemergence. However, some visual wheat response is possible when Zidua is applied to wheat under stressful conditions including inadequate or excessive moisture, cool or hot temperatures, compact- ed soils, injury from other pesticides, disease or other pest damage, mechanical injury, nutrient imbalances, or other conditions known to cause plant stress. Wheat response is most often visible as stunting and/or discoloration of leaf tissue (e.g. chlorosis), but in its most severe form can result in stand loss and yield reduction. The greatest potential for wheat response occurs when Zidua concentrates in the crop row. Unacceptable wheat response may be caused by uneven application, soil clods or disturbances, an open/cracked seed furrow that allows herbicide to directly contact the seed, or a deep seed furrow that allows herbicide concentration after a rain/irrigation event during wheat germination. Certain wheat varieties can be more sensitive to Zidua. Before applying to wheat, verify sensitivity with your local seed company (supplier), university extension specialist (e.g. wheat breeder, weed scientist, county agent, etc.), or BASF representative. Application Rate Apply Zidua in wheat at the residual rates in Table 18. Table 18. Residual Rates of Zidua in Wheat Application Timing Use Rate by Soil Texture1 (ozs/A) Coarse Medium Fine Preplant surface or Preemergence 0.5 to 1.25 1.0 to 1.5 1.0 to 1.75 Delayed preemergence 0.7 to 1.0 1.0 to 1.5 1.0 to 2.0 Early postemergence 1.0 to 2.5 1.0 to 2.5 1.0 to 2.5 1 Refer to Table 3 for definition of soil-texture groups. Application Timing Zidua may be applied in a single application or in sequen- tial applications relative to the growth stage of wheat. Preplant Surface Application Apply Zidua at the use rates specified in Table 18 as a broadcast spray to the soil surface no more than 14 days before planting on all soil types. Soil disturbance after application from planters/drills may result in herbicide incorporation that can result in unacceptable crop injury, or displacement of Zidua that can result in inconsistent weed control. See State-specific Use Instructions for appli- cations in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Preemergence Surface Application Apply Zidua at the use rates specified in Table 18 after planting but before wheat spiking as a broadcast spray to the soil surface with uniform seedbed that is firm and free of clods. Ensure good seed row closure and soil coverage to avoid contact with Zidua. As the interval from planting to application increases, the potential for crop injury decreases. See State-specific Use Instructions for applications in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Delayed Preemergence Surface Application Apply Zidua at the use rates specified in Table 18 as a broadcast spray to the soil surface following wheat plant- ing when 80% of germinated wheat seeds have a shoot at least 1/2-inch long until wheat spiking. Early Postemergence Application Apply Zidua at the use rates specified in Table 18 as a broadcast spray to wheat at spiking up to the 4th-tiller growth stage. Zidua will only suppress or control labeled [Note to PM: Page 22 of 27]

23 weeds that germinate after the early postemergence appli- cation and rainfall/irrigation activation. Apply Zidua® herbicide as early as possible after wheat emergence to prevent weed emergence. Sequential Application Zidua may be applied as a sequential or split application program where a preplant, preemergence, or delayed preemergence application is followed by an early postemergence application or where multiple early postemergence applications are made. DO NOT apply more than a maximum cumulative amount of 2.5 ozs/A (0.133 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) per year. State-specific Use Instructions for Preplant and Preemergence Applications in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Apply Zidua preplant surface or preemergence in fall-seeded winter wheat for residual weed control. DO NOT apply on spring wheat. Apply Zidua only to a uniform seedbed that is firm and free of clods, cracks, excess trash (previous crop residue), and weed growth. The seedbed MUST be prepared to ensure good seed row closure and soil coverage of the seed. Open furrows or poor furrow closure can result in crop injury. Use high quality seed. Plant seed at least 1-inch deep, but not greater than 1.5-inches deep to avoid crop injury. Avoid planting seed into loose, powdery soil because unacceptable crop injury may result if soil settles and final planting depth is less than 1-inch. Apply Zidua preplant surface or preemergence at 1.0 to 2.0 ozs/A on medium soils and at 1.25 to 2.0 ozs/A on fine soils. DO NOT apply on coarse soils. Avoid application to soils with less than 2% organic matter and/or pH greater than 7.5 because unacceptable crop injury may occur. Follow all other application instructions and restrictions and limita- tions for preplant and preemergence applications of Zidua in wheat. Crop-specific Restrictions • DO NOT apply more than 2.5 ozs/A of Zidua (0.133 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) in a single application. • DO NOT apply more than a maximum cumulative amount of 2.5 ozs/A of Zidua (0.133 lb ai/A of pyroxasulfone) from sequential applications in wheat per year. • Maximum number of applications per year: 2 • Separate sequential applications by at least 14 days. • DO NOT apply Zidua to durum wheat. • DO NOT seed wheat deeper than 1.5 inches after a preplant application or before a preemergence or delayed preemergence application. • DO NOT apply Zidua to flooded fields or saturated soils. • DO NOT apply preemergence if 1/4 inch or more rain is expected within 48 hours after application. • DO NOT irrigate fields after a preemergence or delayed preemergence application until wheat spiking. • DO NOT apply preplant, preemergence, or delayed preemergence to broadcast-seeded wheat. • DO NOT apply Zidua [Alternate Text - preplant surface], preplant incorporated, [Alternate Text - preemergence] in wheat. • Wheat forage and hay can be fed or grazed 7 or more days after application. Crop-specific Precautions • Apply Zidua only to a uniform seedbed that is firm and free of clods, cracks, excess trash (previous crop resi- due), and weed growth. The seedbed MUST be prepared to ensure good seed row closure and soil cov- erage of the seed. Open furrows or poor furrow closure can result in crop injury. Use high quality seed. Plant seed at least 3/4-inch deep to avoid crop injury. • The use of Zidua in wheat may result in temporary or sustained growth suppression and chlorosis if high rainfall or irrigation leads to extended periods of water- saturated soil during early seedling development. To reduce crop response, avoid applying Zidua if a long period of rain is expected before wheat emergence. [Note to PM: Page 23 of 27]
