GENERAL INFORMATION CORN: For desiccation of trash weeds in early maturing corn. use 2 gallons of Riverside Sodium Chlorate in 5 to 7 gallons of water per acre by air. Apply at least 14 days before anticipated harvest date on clear days when temperature is expected to go above 70°F. Use the lower spray volume when weeds are small and the crop canopy is fairly open. NOTE: Do not graze treated fields or feed fodder. forage or residual seeds within 14 days of application. conON DEFOLIATION: Weather conditions and plant conditions affect defoliation. Weather conditions that favor good defoliation are high temperature. high humidity. low wind vdlocity. high to adequate soil moisture. Plant conditions which favor l BEST AVAILABLE CO" 1

· . good defoliation are ample fertility and moisture, complete insect control, heavy boll load, all bolls mature, vegetative growth ceased, little or no second growth. Conditions that contribute to poor defoliation are those adverse to the above. Nutrients should be ample but not too much nitrogen. LEAVES SHOULD BE GREEN AND TURGID (NOT WILTED, TOUGHENED OR STUNTED BY LACK OF FERTILIZERS.) Apply 1 to 1 % gallons of Sodium Chlorate per acre in sufficient water to give thorough coverage. When using ground equipment, apply 10 to 20 gallons of spray solution per acre, and by air, 5 to 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. Thorough coverage is essential. Apply the lower rate (1 gallon per acre) when conditions are favorable for good defoliation. Apply the higher rate (1 % gallons per acre) when conditions are adverse for good defoliation. Apply Sodium Chlorate to mature cotton plants, after the youngest bolls expected to make cotton are at least 30 days old. Do not apply later than 7 days before harvest. Do not graze treated areas or feed any waste to livestock. BEANS (DRY): To facilitate the harvest of edible dry beans, apply two gallons of Sodium Chlorate in enough water to give thorough coverage, either by aircraft or ground equipment. For air application, use a minimum of 5 gallons of ready-to-apply material per acre, for ground equipment use minimum of 20 gallons of total solution per acre. Make applications 7 to 10 days before anticipated harvest date when beans are mature and ready for harvest. NOTE: Do not graze treatr.d fields or feed treated fO!iage to livestock. GRAIN SORGHUM: Sodium Chlorate may be used to reduce the moisture content in grain sorghum prior to harvest. It may be applied by aircraft or ground equipment. Thorough coverage of the grain sorghum is essential. To reduce the moisture content of grain ... vhile the crop is standing, apply 1 MI to 2 gallons Sodium Chlorate per acre in sufficient water to give thorough coverage. Apply from 7 to 10 days before harvest. Apply a total of 5 to 10 gallons of spray per acre by airplanes and 10 to 20 gallons per acre by ground equipment. Use the lower rate when grain moisture is low and the weather is clear and dry. Use the higher rate when conditions for desiccation are poor. RICE: To facilitate harvest and reduce moisture in the fully mature seed heads and to desiccate immature red rice in mature white rice, apply by aircraft 1 Ya to 2 gallons of Sodium Chlorate per acre in 5 or more gallons of water per acre. Use the lower rate when crop conditions and weather are right to enhance rapid drying. Apply 7 to 10 days before anticipated harvest. Do not apply under conditions which favor drift. Thorough coverage of the crop is essential to achieve good results. Do not graze treated fields or feed treated straw or crop residues within 14 days of application. Where double cropping of rice is practiced, do not flood fields for at least one week

' .. · . following harvest. SAFFLOWER: To facilitate harvest and reduce moisture in the fully mature seed heads, apply 2 gallons of Sodium Chlorate in sufficient water to give good coverage, 7 or more days before normal harvest when safflower heads are fully mature. Apply in 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre by air or in 20 to 30 gallons of water per acre by ground. Do not apply later than 7 days before harvest. Do not graze treated fields or feed treated forage. Do not apply under conditions which favor drift. SOUTHERN PEAS: To defoliate plants and facilitate harvest, apply 2 gallons of Sodium Chlorate in enough water to provide thorough coverage either by aircraft or ground equipment. Make application 5 to 7 days before anticipated harvest date. Do not :ODPly under cOnditions of extreme heat during the middle of the day. For air application, use 5 to 10 gallons of total solution per acre; for ground application, use a minimum of 20 gallons of total solution per acre. NOTE: Do not graze treated fie:ds or feed treated fodder or forage to livestock. SOYBEANS: As a soybean harvest aid to dry weeds in early maturing soybeans and to facilitate the harvest, apply 2 gallons of Sodium Chlorate per acre in enough water to give thorough coverage; application may be made by ground equipment or aircraft. Make application 7 to 10 days before anticipated harvesting date when beans are mature and ready for harvest. For air application use a minimum of 5 gallons ready-to-apply spray solution per acre; for ground equipment apply a minimum of 20 gallons of ready-to-apply spray solution per acre. Do not graze treated fields or feed treated soybtlan foliage. Do not apply under conditions which favor drift. SUNFLOWER: To facilitate harvest and reduce moisture in the fully mature seed heads, apply 2 gallons Sodium Chlorate in sufficient water to give good coverage, 7 or more days before normal harvest. Apply in 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre by air or in 20 to 30 gallons of water per acre by ground with a high clearance sprayer. Do not apply later tl1an 7 days before harvest. Do not graze treated fields or feed treated forage to livestock. Do not apply under conditions which favor drift.
