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.

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:
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 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 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 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 users 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.
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Water dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable
powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-
emulsions) - Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
4. Water-soluble products - cap the jar and invert
10 cycles.
5. Emulsifiable concentrates ( Segment II) - Cap the jar
an invert 10 cycles.
6. Let the solution stand for 15 minutes.
7. 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.
1. Water - Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer
tank 3/4 full of clean water.
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-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable
powders, suspension concentrates or suspo-emulsions)
5. Water-soluble products
6. Emulsifiable concentrates (including Segment II)
7. Water-soluble additives
8. 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 manufacturers 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.

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.
