In Case of Emergency In case of a spill of this product, call: • CHEMTREC 1-800-424-9300 • BASF Corporation 1-800-832-HELP (4357) Steps to take if this material is released into the environment or spilled: • Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and avoid exposure when managing a spill. (See Precautionary Statements section of this label for required PPE.) • Dike and contain the spill with inert, absorbent material (e.g., sand, earth) and transfer liquid and solid diking material to separate containers for disposal. Small-scale spills of Segment ® II herbicide (that can be cleaned up with a typical spill kit) may be applied to labeled sites. • Remove contaminated clothing, and wash affected skin areas with soap and water. Wash clothing before reuse. • Keep spill out of all sewers and open bodies of water. Use Restrictions • DO NOT use treated vegetation as pasture, hay, feed or forage. • Avoid direct or indirect contact with any desired grass species unless otherwise recommended on the Segment II label. • DO NOT apply Segment II with another pesticide where one component of the tank mix is incompatible with additives, surfactants or oil adjuvants. • DO NOT use recirculating sprayers to apply Segment II. • DO NOT apply to grasses or ornamentals under stress such as stress due to lack of moisture, hail damage, flooding, herbicide injury, mechanical injury, or widely fluctuating temperatures, as unsatisfactory control and injury may result. • DO NOT apply through any type of irrigation equipment. • Avoid using Segment II with adjuvants at temperatures above 90° F and relative humidity is at or above 60%, or any time the temperature exceeds 100° F, as injury may result. • Only use Segment II on centipedegrass and fine fescue. Application to other turfgrass species will result in unac- ceptable injury or plant death. Product Information Segment II is a postemergence herbicide for control of annual and perennial grass weeds in turf, ornamentals, nonfood, and noncrop sites listed on this label. Segment II does not control sedges or broadleaf weeds. A program for total vegetation suppression may necessi- tate the use of a broadleaf herbicide. Segment II may be used in or around the following sites: Ornamental • Christmas tree and conifer nurseries and plantations • Commercial and residential landscapes • Container and field grown nursery production • Industrial landscapes • Perennial peanuts (nonfood) • Potting soil and topsoil • Forestry, reforestation, and tree nurseries and plantations Turfgrass • Naturalized areas on golf courses • Residential and commercial landscapes Professional Vegetation Management • Airports • Electrical transformer stations • Exteriors of public buildings • Industrial areas • Nonagricultural fences and hedgerows • Paved areas • Pipeline pumping stations • Recreation areas • Rights-of-way • Seedhead and growth suppression on roadsides • Sewage disposal areas • Storage yards • Timberland sites • Wildflowers in naturalized areas
5 Mode of Action Sethoxydim, the active ingredient in Segment® II herbicide, is a graminicide which inhibits the enzyme acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACCase), resulting in cessation of fatty acid synthesis which is essential for new growth. Segment II rapidly enters the targeted grass weed through the foliage and translocates throughout the plant. Whole plant death occurs over approximately 3 weeks. Sethoxydim is classified in Group 1 by the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA). Herbicide Resistance Management Segment II is a Group 1 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to Segment II and other Group 1 herbicides. Weed species with resistance to Group 1 may eventually dominate the weed population if Group 1 herbicides are used repeated- ly in the same field or in successive years as the primary method of control for targeted species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by Segment II or other Group 1 herbicides. To delay herbicide resistance consider: • Avoiding the consecutive use of Segment II or other tar- get site-of-action Group 1 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 (Integrat- ed Pest Management) program including cultural and mechanical methods. • Monitoring treated weed populations for loss of field effi- cacy, and controlling escapes with effective alternative herbicides or mechanical methods. • Identifying weeds present in the field through scouting and field history and understanding their biology. The weed-control program needs to consider all of the weeds present. • Scouting fields prior to application to identify the weed species present and their growth stage to determine if the intended application will be effective. • Scouting fields after application to verify the treatment was effective. • Suspected herbicide-resistance weeds may be identified by these indicators:
- Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if con- trol is achieved on adjacent weeds;
- A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a partic- ular weed species; and
- 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 nonchemical 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. • Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisor, and/or manufacturer to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this mode of action have been found in your region. If resistant biotypes of target weeds have been reported, use the application rates of this product specified for your local conditions. Tank mix products so that there are multiple effective mechanisms of actions for each target weed. Spray Drift Advisory The applicator is responsible for avoiding off-site spray drift. Be aware of nearby nontarget 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 - 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 manufacturer’s 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 vegetation and have minimal bounce. 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.
6 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. Boomless Ground Applications Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift. Handheld Technology Applications Take precautions to minimize spray drift. Tank Mixing Information It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restric- tive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. To control additional broadleaf weed species, tank mix with: Basagran ® T&O herbicide (turf and ornamental use) Goal® 2 XL herbicide (professional vegetation manage- ment only) Stinger® herbicide (professional vegetation management only) Physical incompatibility, reduced grass weed control, or plant injury may result from mixing Segment® II herbicide with other pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or miticides), additives or fertilizers. BASF does not recommend using tank mixes other than those listed on BASF labeling. Compatibility Test for Mix Components Add components in the following sequence: use 2 tea- spoons per one pound dry product per acre OR 1 teaspoon per one pint of liquid product per acre.
- Water - for 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups (800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates accordingly. Use only water from the intend- ed source at the source temperature.
- Products in PVA Bags - Cut an opening in the water soluble PVA bag just large enough to use a teaspoon for measuring purposes. Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles. NOTE: Use the opened water-soluble PVA bag first when preparing the spray solution.
- Water dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo- emulsions) - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
- Water-soluble products - cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
- Emulsifiable concentrates ( Segment II) - Cap the jar an invert 10 cycles.
- 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 or thick (clabbered) texture. For water-dispersible granule (WG) or wettable powder (WP) products, a fine precipi- tate that is easily resuspended is normal; large nondispersible particles (>300 microns) that precipitate on standing are a sign of tank mix incompatibility. DO NOT use any spray solution that could clog spray nozzles. Mixing Order Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing and applica- tion. Always perform a compatibility test to ensure proper mixing. See Compatibility Test for Mix Components section of the label for directions.
- Water - Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank 3/4 full of clean water.
- Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
- 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.
- Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates or suspo-emulsions)
- Water-soluble products
- Emulsifiable concentrates (including Segment II)
- Water-soluble additives
- Remaining quantity of water
7 Additives Always apply Segment® II herbicide with a crop oil con- centrate (COC) or methylated/modified seed oil (MSO) as directed in Table 5. Non-ionic surfactants (NIS) or blends are not recommended because weed control may be unsatisfactory. Crop oil concentrates or methylated seed oils used as an adjuvant with Segment II must meet all the following criteria: • Nonphytotoxic • Produce good mixing quality in the jar test • Successful in local experience When an adjuvant (or specific adjuvant product, such as a drift control agent) is to be used with this product, the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) certified adjuvant is recommended. Consult your local BASF representative or distributor for instructions for your area. Use Information Apply Segment II to actively growing weeds as a poste- mergence broadcast or spot spray in labeled ornamental, turfgrass and, professional vegetation management sites at the specified rates and growth state listed in Table 1. DO NOT exceed the labeled application rate or fail to comply with use specifications in Restrictions and Limitations. For best results, weeds should be actively growing and not under stress from lack of water, excessive water, low fertili- ty, mowing shock, excessive hot or cold temperatures, or injury from other herbicide applications. To achieve consistent weed control, a crop oil concentrate (COC) or methylated seed oil (MSO) adjuvant is required. See Table 5 for adjuvant and additive rates. Plant Tolerance and Phytotoxicity Notice Segment II has been applied to a wide variety of common ornamental plants without observed plant injury. Refer to Table 10, Table 11, Table 12, Table 13, and Table 14 for the list of plant shown to be tolerant to Segment II. Not all species, varieties, and cultivars have been tested for toler- ance to Segment II, possible tank mix combinations, pesticide treatments before or after those with Segment II, and combinations with surfactants or adju- vants. Local conditions can also influence plant tolerance and may not match those under which BASF has conduct- ed testing. Because many cultivars within a plant species vary in tolerance to chemical applications and growing conditions, the grower must recognize these differences and test the product accordingly. At a minimum always test a small group of representative plants for tolerance to Segment II under local growing conditions and before large-scale use. Refer to Table 10, Table 11, Table 12, Table 13, and Table 14 for both tolerant and sensitive ornamental plants. Refer to Table 6, Table 7, Table 8, and Table 9 for use site specific instructions and restrictions. User assumes responsibility for testing ornamental suitabil- ity under local growing conditions by treating a small number of plants at the specified rate. At a minimum, this should include evaluating treated plants for sev- eral weeks following treatment for possible injury or other effects. To the extent consistent with applicable law, by applying Segment II, the user assumes responsibility for any plant damage or other liability associated with factors beyond the manufacturer’s control, such as weather, pres- ence of other materials and manner or use of application inconsistent with this labeling. Mowing Information To maximize weed control and minimize potential turfgrass injury DO NOT mow centipedegrass and fine fescue areas within 7 days before or after applying Segment II. Increased weed control has been observed when mowing is delayed for 14 days after application. Grass weeds that have been mowed or have regrown from mowed stubble may be controlled poorly. Repeat application if new germi- nation or regrowth occurs. Irrigation and Rainfall If soil moisture is not sufficient for Segment II application, irrigation may improve weed control. Segment II is rain- fast after one hour. Application Instructions Applications (aerial, broadcast, band or spot spray) can be made to actively growing grass weeds at the rates and growth stages listed in Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, and Table 4 unless instructed differently in the Use Site- specific Information sections. The most effective control will result from making postemergence applications of Segment II early, when grass weeds are small. Delaying application permits weeds to exceed the maximum size stated and will prevent complete control. DO NOT apply when conditions favor drift from the target area or wind speed is greater than 10 mph. Ground Application (Broadcast) Apply with properly calibrated ground equipment in suffi- cient water per acre to provide uniform spray distribution (between 5 to 50 gallons spray solution per acre or 1 to 10 pints per 1,000 square feet). Apply Segment II using 30 to 60 psi. If weed or plant foliage is dense, use a mini- mum of 20 gallons of water and 60 psi. Spot or Small Area Application Segment II can be applied using tank-type sprayers, back- pack sprayers, high-volume equipment with handguns, or other suitable nozzle arrangements. Prepare a solution of Segment II in water according to Table 3 or Table 4. DO NOT make spot treatments in addition to broadcast treatment.
8 Mixing Instructions for Backpack and Pump-up Type Sprayers • Fill a clean spray tank 1/2 full with clean water • Add required amount of Segment® II herbicide • Cap sprayer and agitate to ensure adequate mixing • Uncap sprayer and add appropriate amount of adjuvant (COC or MSO) or additive • Cap sprayer and agitate again to ensure adequate mixing • Finish filling tank to the desired level Apply spray mixture directly on sporadically occurring sus- ceptible weeds (See Table 5). For best results apply on a spray-to-wet basis. Follow up applications may be made if necessary. Cleaning Spray Equipment Clean application equipment thoroughly using a strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner, like Neutralize TM tank cleaner or Nutra-Sol ® tank cleaner, according to the manufacturer’s directions before and after applying this product.

10 Use Site-specific Information Applications (aerial, broadcast, band or spot-spray) can be made to actively growing grass weeds at the rates and growth stages listed in Table 1 and Table 2, unless instructed differently in the following Use Site-specific Information sections. Christmas Tree, Deciduous Tree Farms and Timber Production Sites Segment® II herbicide can be used to control annual and perennial grasses during site preparation, establishment and/or maintenance of tree plantations, Christmas tree plantations, conifer and hardwood seedling nurseries, pulpwood farms and fiber farms. Segment II may also be used for hardwood and conifer regeneration on Conservation Reserve Program land or similar areas. If a Christmas tree or deciduous tree is not listed in Table 10, the user may determine if Segment II can be used safely prior to broad use by applying the specified use rate to the target plant in a small test area under typical conditions. Any adverse effects should be visible within 7 days. Segment II can be tank mixed with select herbicides to suppress desirable tall fescue and enhance efficacy by expand- ing the number of weed species controlled. Consult Table 6 and Table 7 for tank mix partners. Suppression of tall fescue grown for ground cover on tree farms must be actively growing at the time of application or injury may occur. Table 6. Tank Mixes for Grass and Broadleaf Weed Control in Christmas Tree and Deciduous Tree Farms Use Sites Tolerant Species Tank Mix Directions Restrictions and Limitations Christmas trees and conifer farms Fir (Balsam, Douglas, Fraser, Grand, Noble) Pine (Lodgepole, Ponderosa, Scotch, White) Spruce (Blue) Segment II (up to 2.5 pints per acre) + Goal® 2 XL herbicide1, 2 • Apply at 20 gallons spray solution per acre at 40 psi be- fore conifer bud-break or after foliage has hard- ened off. • Refer to Goal 2XL label for application rates. DO NOT apply tank mixtures when tem- peratures exceed 90° F. DO NOT apply tank mix to conifer seed- lings less than 10 months old. DO NOT apply this tank mix by aircraft. Deciduous tree farms Segment II (0.3 to 1.0 pint per acre) + Stinger ® herbicide • Apply tank mix only over the top of spe- cies listed under use sites. DO NOT add surfac- tant or oil concentrate to this tank mix as injury may occur. In the Pacific Northwest – DO NOT apply this tank mix in the first year of trans- planting as injury may occur. 1 Always follow the most restrictive label. 2 Begin applications at the minimum rate on both labels to assess weed control and plant tolerance.
11 Table 7. Tall Fescue Suppression with Segment® II herbicide Use Sites Species Suppressed Timing Rate Restrictions and Limitations Tree farms Fescue, tall, mature1 • Apply in spring after 4 to 6 inches of new growth, but BEFORE seedhead formation. 2 • Sequential applica- tions will extend suppression if needed. 3 2.0 to 2.5 pints per acre or 0.4 to 0.5 ounce per 1,000 square feet Up to 5 pints per acre or 0.9 ounce per 1,000 square feet DO NOT apply to tall fescue that is less than one year old. Applications made when tem- peratures are at or exceed 90° F may be less effective (July 1 to mid-August). Begin applications at lower rates and adjust according to tall fes- cue response and local conditions. Local environmental conditions or overall growth differences at application may cause results to be different than expected. Roadsides, Rights- of-way, Nonfood crop alleyways 1.0 pint per acre or 0.4 ounce per 1,000 square feet DO NOT make more than one application of Segment II to tall fescue per year. DO NOT apply after May 1 in AL, GA and TN; timing may vary in other areas. Treated vegetation may not be used for feed, forage, hay or silage. 1 Tall fescue MUST be established for one year prior to application 2 Apply before conifer bud-break 3 Only applies to tree farm use sites Non-bearing Fruit and Nut Crops, Ornamental and Nursery Plantings, Ornamentals in Residential and Commercial Landscapes, Rights-of-way, Roadsides, Nonfood Crop Areas and Alleyways, Noncrop Areas Applications can also be made to nurseries including non-bearing fruit and nut trees (including citrus), conifer and hard- wood seedling liner nurseries or tree farms (including Christmas trees), and the nonproduction areas in commercial nurseries including storage areas, vegetation filter strips, windbreaks, shelterbelts, cart paths, graveled areas. Segment II may be applied to ornamental (non-bearing) fruit and nut trees (including citrus), vines, brambles, and bush- berries grown in commercial ornamental production nurseries. Non-bearing trees, vines, brambles, and bushberries are grown in ornamental production nurseries where immature and/or inedible fruits, nuts, or berries may appear on the tree, vine, bramble, and bush but are not intended for harvest or consumption. If species in the application are not listed as tolerant to Segment II in Table 10, Table 11, Table 12, Table 13, and Table 14, apply as a directed spray away from sensitive, desirable plants. Segment II may also be applied to sites such as rights-of-way, noncrop areas and nonfood crop areas such as airports, industrial sites, roadsides, storage yards and other areas listed under product information. Repeat application if new germination or regrowth of grass weeds occurs.
12 Commercial and Residential Landscapes, Naturalized Areas On Golf Courses, Rights-of-way Apply Segment® II herbicide on centipedegrass and fine fescue to control annual and perennial grass weeds. See Table 8 for application rates and timings. Segment II does not control annual bluegrass or rattail fescue. Segment II can be tank mixed to expand weeds controlled. DO NOT apply Segment II to desirable tall fescue turfgrass. Table 8. Grass Weed Control in Centipedegrass and Fine Fescue Tolerant Species Rate Restrictions and Limitations Centipedegrass, seedling Up to 1.0 pint per acre per application DO NOT apply more than 2.0 pints per acre per season. Centipedegrass, mature Up to 1.5 pints per acre per application DO NOT apply more than 3.0 pints per acre per season. Fescue, fine Up to 2.5 pints per acre per application DO NOT apply more than 3.0 pints per acre per season. Table 9. Tank Mixes for Weed Control in Centipedegrass and Fine Fescue Use Sites Weeds Controlled Tank Mix Directions Restrictions and Limitations Centipedegrass and Fine fescue Broadleaf weeds Grasses (annual and perennial) Yellow nutsedge Segment II (up to 2.5 pints per acre) + Basagran ® T&O herbicide (2 to 4 pints per acre) Apply to established turfgrass. DO NOT apply to newly seeded turfgrass sites until the turf has become fully established. Use of oil concentrates with this mixture is not recommended.
13 Wildflowers in Naturalized Areas Segment® II herbicide can be used to control grass weeds in native wildflower sites on roadsides, native areas on golf courses and in landscapes. Many wildflower species are tolerant of Segment II applications. For a complete list of spe- cies tested, see Table 14. Apply Segment II prior to blooming. Make broadcast applications of Segment II 4 to 6 weeks after wildflower emergence, but not during flowering. Base application timing on grass size according to Table 1 and Table 2. A second application may be necessary if additional grass weeds germinate later in the season. Table 10.
