PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
Long-sleeved shirt and long pants. Chemical-resistant gloves, such as barrier laminate or DuPont™ VITON®. Shoes plus socks.
Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
Engineering Control Statements: Mixers and loaders supporting aerial applications are required to use closed systems. The closed system must be used in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)]. When using the closed system, the mixers’ and loaders’ PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
USERS SHOULD: Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using toilet. Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
DO NOT apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark.
DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate.
GROUNDWATER ADVISORY
S-metolachlor is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
SURFACE WATER ADVISORY
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 3
reaching surface water via runoff for several weeks or months after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of s-metolachlor from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
NON-TARGET ORGANISM ADVISORY: This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray drift.
REPORTING ECOLOGICAL INCIDENTS To report ecological incidents, including mortality, injury, or harm to plants and animals, call 1-800-992- 5994.
MIXING/LOADING INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT INFORMATION
Observe all precautions and limitations on the labels of each product used in tank mixtures. Tank mixtures are permitted only in those states where the tank mix partner is registered. Refer to and follow the label for each tank mix product used for precautionary statements, directions for use, geographic and other restrictions.
Cinch ® is a selective herbicide registered for use as a preplant surface-applied, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment in water or fluid fertilizer for control of most annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds in beans, peas, and lentils; corn (all types); cotton; grasses grown for seed; peanuts; potatoes; safflowers; sweet, grain, or forage sorghum; soybeans; soybean, immature seed; sugar beets; sunflowers; and tomatoes.
Restrictions: DO NOT use in nurseries, turf, or landscape plantings.
DO NOT apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing this product to nontarget areas.
To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion:
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 5
- Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are favorable for wind erosion. Under these conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by rainfall or irrigation.
- DO NOT apply to impervious substrates, such as paved or highly compacted surfaces.
- DO NOT use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat nontarget crops, unless at least 1/2 inch of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation.
Where directions specify a CINCH® tank mixture with “AAtrex” formulations, other brands of atrazine may be used. Follow the rates, directions, and limitations on the “AAtrex” or respective atrazine product label, if other brands of atrazine are used.
Note: Certain states may have established rate limitations for atrazine within specific geographical areas. Consult your state lead pesticide control agency for additional information. It is a violation of this label to deviate from state use regulations.
If Cinch is incorporated, any supplemental tillage before planting must not exceed the depth of incorporation.
Dry weather following preemergence application of Cinch or a tank mixture may reduce effectiveness. Cultivate if weeds develop.
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean erratic control from good to poor, or consistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial weed control.
Precaution: Injury may occur following the use of Cinch under abnormally high soil moisture conditions during early development of the crop.
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
This product contains the active ingredient s-metolachlor which is a Group 15 herbicide, based on the mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America.
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to one or more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include the use of multiple herbicides with different modes of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or other cultural practices. Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for resistance.
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed resistance management program.
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should: x Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed sizes present. x Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage. x If using post-emergence herbicides or tank mixes, control weeds early when they are relatively small. x Apply full rates of this product for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the specified time to minimize weed escapes. x Scout fields after application to detect weed es capes or shifts in control of weed species. x Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively. x Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your local company representative, local retailer, or county extension agent. x Contact your local company representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to these MOAs have been found in your region. DO NOT assume that
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 6
each listed weed is being controlled by multiple mode of action. Products with multiple active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum of weeds that are controlled. Some weeds may be controlled by only one of the active ingredients in this product. x If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a mode of action other than Group 15 and/or use nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production. x Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators: Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is practical: x Use a broad spectrum herbicide with other mode of action as a foundation in a weed control program, if appropriate. x Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative modes of action. x Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 15 herbicides. x Avoid making more than two sequential applications of this product and any other Group 15 herbicides within a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different mode of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds. x Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, such as mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program. x Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness. x Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds. Manage weeds in and around fields to reduce weed seed production.
SOIL TEXTURES AND HERBICIDE RATES
Where rates are based on coarse-, medium-, or fine-textured soils, it is understood that soil textural classes are generally categorized as follows:
COARSE Sand, loamy sand, sandy loam
MEDIUM Loam, silt loam, silt
FINE Sandy clay loam, silty clay loam, clay loam, sandy clay, silty clay, clay
Within rate ranges in the rate tables and elsewhere on this label, use the lower rate on soils relatively coarse-textured or low in organic matter; use the higher rate on soils relatively fine-textured or high in organic matter.
Cinch may be applied preemergence alone, or in combination with tank mix partners specified on this label, following preplant incorporated herbicides when used according to their label directions, provided that such use is not prohibited on the respective labels.
Thoroughly clean sprayer or other application device before using. Dispose of cleaning solution in a responsible manner. DO NOT use a sprayer or applicator contaminated with any other materials, or crop damage or clogging of the application device may result.
CINCH APPLIED ALONE
Cinch is taken up by the shoots and/or roots of emerging weeds. This uptake results in the inhibition of shoot and root tissue growth soon after weed germination. Because of this, CINCH® will not control
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 7
emerged weeds and should be applied prior to weed emergence.
If Cinch is incorporated, DO NOT exceed a 2- to 3-inch depth. Any tillage after the CINCH® incorporation and before planting should not exceed 2-3 inches.
Dry weather following application of Cinch may reduce weed control. Cultivate if weeds develop.

- Refer to the corn section of this label for additional recommendations.
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean erratic control from good to poor or consistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial weed control. Control of these weeds can be erratic, due partially to variable weather conditions. The following procedures may improve the control of weeds listed as partially controlled:
- Thoroughly till soil to destroy germinating and emerged weeds.
- Plant crop into moist soil immediately after tillage. If Cinch is to be used preemergence, apply at planting or immediately after planting.
- If available, sprinkler irrigate within 2 days after application. Apply 1/2-1 inch of water. Use lower water volume (1/2 inch) on coarse-textured soils and higher volume (1 inch) on fine-textured soils. Also, refer to the section on Center Pivot Irrigation Application for this method of applying Cinch.
- If irrigation is not possible and rain does not occur within 2 days after planting and application, weed control may be decreased. Under these conditions, a uniform, shallow cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds emerge.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 8
REPLANT AND ROTATIONAL CROPS SECTION
Replanted Crop Directions
This section covers replant crops that may be planted following a lost crop that has had an application of Cinch.
If a crop treated with Cinch is lost, any crop on this label, or on a supplemental Cinch label, may be replanted immediately provided that the rate of Cinch applied to the previous crop was not greater than the labeled rate for the crop to be replanted. If the first application was banded and the replant crop is planted in the center of the untreated bands, a second banded treatment may be applied at the rate for the use pattern for the replant crop, provided the application does not overlap the first application band.
Rotational Crop Directions
DO NOT rotate to food or feed crops other than those listed below. For all crops not listed, wait at least 12 months following the last application of Cinch before planting.
Barley, oats, rye, or wheat may be planted 4 1/2 months following treatment.
Alfalfa may be planted 4 months following application. Clover may be seeded 9 months following application.
Restrictions: (1) DO NOT apply more than 1.9 lbs. active ingredient per acre (2.0 pts. of Cinch) in the previous crop, and (2) DO NOT make lay-by or other postemergent applications of Cinch in the previous crop.

APPLICATION PROCEDURES
APPLICATION TIMING
Cinch alone or in some tank mixtures with other labeled herbicides may be applied for weed control in certain crops at various times. Refer to the given crop section of the label to determine if application timings listed below are recommended.
Preplant Surface-Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems only, Cinch alone and some Cinch tank mixtures may be applied up to 45 days before planting certain crops. Use only split applications for treatments made 30-45 days before planting, with 2/3 the specified broadcast rate for the crop and soil texture applied initially and the remaining 1/3 at planting. Treatments less than 30 days before planting may be made either as a split or a single application. Refer to individual crop section on this label to determine if early preplant surface application is recommended. If weeds are present at the time of treatment, apply in a tank mixture combination with a contact herbicide (for example, “Gramoxone” brands or glyphosate). Observe directions for use, precautions, and restrictions on the label of the contact herbicide. To the extent possible, DO NOT move treated soil out of the row or move untreated soil to the surface during planting, or weed control will be diminished.
Preplant Incorporated: Apply Cinch to the soil and incorporate into the top 2 inches of soil within 14 days before planting, using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling cultivator, or similar implement capable of providing uniform 2-inch incorporation. Use a preplant incorporated application if furrow irrigation is used or when a period of dry weather after application is expected. If crop will be planted on beds, apply and incorporate Cinch after bed formation, unless specified otherwise.
Preemergence: Apply Cinch during planting (behind the planter) or after planting, but before weeds or crops emerge.
Postemergence: Cinch will not control emerged weeds so it must be applied to a weed-free soil surface or in tank mixture with products that provide postemergence control of weeds present at the time of application. Refer to the individual crop section of this label if a postemergence application is recommended.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 10
SPECIAL APPLICATION PROCEDURES
CA Only (Beans, Peas, and Lentils; Corn; Safflowers): Preplant Incorporated: Broadcast Cinch alone or with tank mix partners listed on this label to the soil and thoroughly incorporate with a disk or similar implement set to till 4-6 inches deep. For more thorough incorporation, till the soil in 2 different directions (cross-till). Crops may be planted on flat surface or on beds. Use caution when forming the beds that only soil from the Cinch treated zone is used (i.e., untreated soil should not be brought to soil surface). If the application is made to preformed beds, incorporate Cinch with a tillage implement set to till 2- 4 inches deep. Care should be taken during tilling to keep the tilled (Cinch -treated) soil on the beds.
Preemergence: Apply Cinch after planting. Water with sprinkler or flood irrigation within 7-10 days.
Fall Application for Spring Weed Control (Only in IA, MN, ND, SD, WI, and portions of NE and IL - See specific instructions in the Beans, Peas, and Lentils; Corn; and Soybeans sections of this label for timing of application and other information): Use on medium and fine soils with greater than 2.5% organic matter that will be planted to corn or soybeans the next spring. Ground may be tilled before or after application. Incorporation to a depth greater than 2-3 inches following the application of Cinch may result in reduced weed control.. If a spring application is made, the total rate of the fall plus spring applications must not exceed the maximum total rate for the specific crop, or illegal residues may result.
Restriction: DO NOT apply to frozen ground.
Fall Application for Italian Ryegrass Control (Corn, Cotton, Grain and Forage Sorghum, and Soybean Only – See specific instructions in the Corn, Cotton, Grain and Forage Sorghum, and Soybean sections of this label for timing of application and other information): Cinch may be applied in the fall (September 1-December 1) for residual control of glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum). A tillage operation may precede the application. Incorporation to a depth greater than 2-3 inches following the application of Cinch may result in reduced weed control. All crops on the Cinch label may be planted the following spring after application. If a spring application is made, the combined total amount of Cinch applied in the fall plus the spring must not exceed the maximum S- metolachlor rate for the specific crop planted per year, or illegal residues may result. Refer to the crop sections on this label for specific directions. Restriction: DO NOT apply to frozen ground.
Ground Application: Apply Cinch alone or in tank mixtures by ground equipment in a minimum of 10 gals. of spray mixture per acre, unless otherwise specified.
Use sprayers that provide accurate and uniform application. For Cinch tank mixtures with wettable powder or dry flowable formulations, screens and strainers should be no finer than 50-mesh. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean water immediately after use.

Use sprayers that provide accurate and uniform application. Only water may be used as a carrier. Screens in suction and in- line strainers should be 50-mesh. Manufacturers may require that tip screens as fine as 100-mesh be used with some nozzles. Use a pump with capacity to: (1) maintain up to 35-40 psi at the nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension. Use a minimum of 5.0 gals. of spray mixture per acre. Maximum recommended sprayer speed is 15 mph. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean water immediately after each use.
Note: Low pressure nozzles will reduce drift and increase application accuracy. Use care when using automatic rate controlling devices to spray the material within the rated working pressure and flow ranges of the nozzles selected. Use nozzle screens when instructed by the manufacturer. All nozzles should be placed on 20-inch centers, except flooding types which should be placed on 40-inch centers. When Flat Fan-type nozzles are used, angles of 80° or 110° are recommended.
Always read and follow the manufacturer's directions for optimum setup and performance of their nozzles or tips.
AERIAL APPLICATION
Apply Cinch in water alone or in tank mixtures with atrazine, Basis Blend, Leadoff, linuron, metribuzin, Resolve or Resolve Q in a minimum total volume of 2.0 gals./A by aircraft. Cinch may also be applied by air in combination with “Prowl” or “Treflan”. Avoid application under conditions where uniform coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur. In order to assure that spray will be controllable within the target area when used according to label directions, make applications at a maximum height of 10 ft., using low-drift nozzles at a maximum pressure of 40 psi, and restrict application to periods when wind speed does not exceed 10 mph. To assure that spray will not adversely affect adjacent sensitive nontarget plants, apply Cinch alone or Cinch + atrazine by aircraft at a minimum upwind distance of 400 ft. from sensitive plants, or apply Cinch + linuron or metribuzin at a minimum upwind distance of 300 ft. from sensitive plants.
AERIAL DRIFT MANAGEMENT
The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions.
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements DO NOT apply to forestry applications, public health uses, or to applications using dry formulations.
- The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or rotor.
- Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and never be pointed downward more than 45 degrees.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
The applicator must be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information section below.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 12
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Aerial Applications: • DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety. • Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that deliver medium or coarser droplets (ASABE S641). • If the wind speed is 10 miles per hour or less, applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. When the wind speed is between 11-15 miles per hour, applicators must use ¾ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the wind speed is greater than 10 mph, the boom length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed-wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. • DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Ground Boom Applications: • User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy. • Applicators are required to select the nozzles and pressure that deliver medium or coarser droplets (ASABE S572). • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site. • DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Boomless Ground Applications: • Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that deliver medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.3) for all applications. • DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 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 ENVIRONMENTAL 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 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.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 13
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom 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.
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 INVERSIONS Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature 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 applications 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.
Sensitive Areas
The pesticide must only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, nontarget crops) is minimal (e.g., when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas).
Avoid application to humans or animals. Flagmen and loaders should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.
CENTER PIVOT IRRIGATION APPLICATION
Cinch alone or in tank mixture with other herbicides on this label, which are registered for center pivot application, may be applied in irrigation water preemergence (after planting, but before weeds or crop emerge) at rates specified on this label. Cinch also may be applied postemergence to the crop and preemergence to weeds in crops where postemergence applications are allowed on this label. Follow all restrictions (height, timing, rate, etc.) to avoid illegal residues. Apply this product only through a center pivot irrigation system. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. DO NOT connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system, unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place. 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 should the need arise.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 14
Operating Instructions
- The system must contain a functional check-valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from backflow.
- The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
- The pesticide injection pipeline 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.
- The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
- The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
- Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump or piston pump), effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
- DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
- Prepare a mixture with a minimum of 1 part water to 1 part herbicide(s) and inject this mixture into the center pivot system. Injecting a larger volume of a more dilute mixture per hour will usually provide more accurate calibration of metering equipment. Maintain sufficient agitation to keep the herbicide in suspension.
- Meter into irrigation water during entire period of water application.
- Apply in 1/2-1 inch of water. Use the lower water volume (1/2 inch) on coarse-textured soils and the higher volume (1 inch) on fine-textured soils. More than 1 inch of water at application may reduce weed control by moving the herbicide below the effective zone in the soil.
Precaution for center pivot applications: Where sprinkler distribution patterns do not overlap sufficiently, unacceptable weed control may result. Where sprinkler distribution patterns overlap excessively, crop injury may result.
DRY BULK GRANULAR FERTILIZERS
Many dry bulk granular fertilizers may be impregnated or coated with Cinch alone or selected Cinch tank mixtures which are registered for preplant incorporated or preplant surface applications which are used to control weeds in crops on the Cinch label and are not prohibited from use on dry bulk granular fertilizers.
When applying Cinch or Cinch mixtures with dry bulk granular fertilizers, follow all directions for use and precautions on the respective product labels, regarding target crops, rates per acre, soil texture, application methods (including timing of application), and rotational crops.
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.
Prepare the herbicide/fertilizer mixtures by using any closed drum, belt, ribbon, or other commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender. Nozzles used to spray Cinch and Cinch mixtures onto the fertilizer must be placed to provide uniform spray coverage. Care should be taken to aim the spray directly onto the fertilizer only and to avoid spraying the walls of the blender.
If the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is too wet, add a highly absorptive material, such as “Agsorb” or “Celatom MP-79”, or similar granular clay or diatomaceous earth materials, to obtain a dry, free-flowing mixture. Add absorptive materials only after the herbicide has been thoroughly blended into the fertilizer mixture. Best application results will be obtained by using a granule of 6/30 particle size or of a size similar to that of the fertilizer material being used. Generally, less than 2% by weight of absorptive material will be needed. Avoid using more than 5% absorptive material by weight.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 15
Calculate amounts of Cinch, atrazine, metribuzin, simazine or “Sonalan” by the following formula:
2,000 X pts./A of liquid or flowable product = pts. of liquid or flowable product per lbs. of fertilizer per acre ton of fertilizer
2,000 X lbs./A of dry product = lbs. of dry product per ton of fertilize r lbs. of fertilizer per acre
Pneumatic (Compressed Air) Application (Cinch Alone): High humidity, high urea concentrations, low fertilizer use rates, and dusty fertilizer may cause fertilizer mixture to build up or plug the distributor head, air tubes, or nozzle deflector plates. To minimize buildup, premix Cinch with Exxon Aromatic 200 at a rate of 1.0-4.0 pts./gal. of Cinch. Aromatic 200 is a noncombustible/nonflammable petroleum product. Aromatic 200 may be used in either a fertilizer blender or through direct injection systems. Drying agents should not be used when using Aromatic 200.
Precautions: (1) Mixtures of Cinch and Aromatic 200 must be used on dry fertilizer only. Poor results or crop injury may result if these mixtures are used in water or liquid fertilizer solutions for spraying applications. (2) When impregnating Cinch in a blender before application, a drier mixture can be attained by substituting a drying agent for Aromatic 200. Agsorb FG or drying agents of 6/30 particle size will provide best results. (3) When possible, avoid drying agents when using On-The-Go impregnation equipment.
Precautions: To avoid potential for explosion, (1) DO NOT impregnate Cinch or Cinch mixtures on ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodium nitrate, either alone or in blends with other fertilizers. (2) DO NOT use Cinch or Cinch mixtures on straight limestone, since absorption will not be achieved. Fertilizer blends containing limestone can be impregnated.
Application
Apply 200-700 lbs. of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture per acre. For best results, apply the mixture uniformly to the soil with properly calibrated equipment immediately after blending. Uniform application of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is essential to prevent possible crop injury. Nonuniform application may also result in unsatisfactory weed control. In areas where conventional tillage is practiced, a shallow incorporation of the mixture into the soil may improve weed control. On fine- or medium-textured soils in areas where soil incorporation is not planned, i.e., reduced tillage situations or in some conventional till situations, make applications approximately 30 days before planting to allow moisture to move the herbicide/fertilizer mixture into the soil. On coarse-textured soils, make applications approximately 14 days prior to planting.
Precaution: To avoid crop injury, DO NOT use the herbicide/fertilizer mixture on crops where bedding occurs.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Cinch Alone: Mix Cinch with water or fluid fertilizer and apply as a spray. Fill the spray tank 1/2-3/4 full with water or fluid fertilizer, add the proper amount of Cinch, then add the rest of the water or fluid fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during mixing and application to maintain a uniform emulsion.
Tank Mixtures: Fill the spray tank 1/4 full with water, and start agitation; add 2,4-D, atrazine, Alluvex, “Balance Pro”, “Banvel”, “Basagran”, Basis Blend, “Butoxone”, “Butyrac”, Canopy brands, “Caparol” 4L, “Command”, “Cotoran”, “Eptam”, “Ignite”, Instigate, Leadoff, linuron, Marksman”, metribuzin, “MSMA, Prequel, “Princep”, “Prowl”, “Pursuit”, “AAtrex” + “Princep”, Resolve Q, “Scepter”, “Sonalan”, or “Treflan”, and allow it to become dispersed; then add Cinch; then add Abundit Extra, “Gramoxone” brands, “Landmaster” BW or “Roundup” (or other glyphosate products) if these products are being used; and finally the rest of the water. For tank mixtures with “AAtrex”, “Balance Pro”, “Banvel”, Basis Blend, Canopy, “Caparol” 4L, “Command”, “Cotoran”, “Eptam”, LEADOFF™, linuron, “Marksman”, metribuzin, Prequel, “Princep”, “Prowl”, “Pursuit”, “AAtrex” + “Princep”, Resolve Q, “Scepter”, “Sonalan”, or “Treflan”,
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 16
fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of the water as carrier, except in the “AAtrex” postemergence and the “Banvel” postemergence tank mixes. For tank mixtures with “AAtrex”, see additional mixing instructions on the “AAtrex” label. For each mixture, check compatibility with fluid fertilizer, as described below, before mixing in spray tank. For all tank mixtures, agitate during mixing and application to maintain a uniform suspension.
*See Special Mixing Instructions for tank mixtures with “Cotoran” and with “AAtrex” or “Princep” + “Prowl” under the appropriate tank mixture section.
For directions on how to conduct a compatibility test, see the Compatibility Test section.
Compatibility Test
A jar test is recommended before tank mixing to ensure compatibility of Cinch with other pesticides. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gals/A. For other spray volumes, make appropriate changes in the ingredients.
Restrictions: Nitrogen solutions or complete fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of the water in the spray. Because liquid fertilizers vary, even within the same analysis, always check compatibility with pesticide(s) before use. Incompatibility of tank mixtures is more common with suspensions of fertilizer and pesticides.
Test Procedure
- Add 1.0 pt. of carrier (fertilizer or water) to each of 2 one qt. jars with tight lids. Restrictions: Use the same source of water that will be used for the tank mix and conduct the test at the temperature the tank mix will be applied.
- To one of the jars, add 1/4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility agent approved for this use, such as “Compex” or “Unite” (1/4 tsp. is equivalent to 2.0 pts./100 gals. spray). Shake or stir gently to mix.
- To both jars, add the appropriate amount of pesticide(s) in their relative proportions based on specified label rates. If more than one pesticide is used, add them separately with dry pesticides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After each addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix.
- After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert each jar ten times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15-30 minutes and then look for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the jar, or other signs of incompatibility. Determine if the compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by comparing the two jars. If either mixture separates, but can be remixed readily, the mixture can be sprayed as long as good agitation is used. If the mixtures are incompatible, test the following methods of improving compatibility: (a) Slurry the dry pesticide(s) in water before addition, or (b) add 1/2 the compatibility agent to the fertilizer or water and the other 1/2 to the emulsifiable concentrate or flowable pesticide before addition to the mixture. If incompatibility is still observed, DO NOT use the mixture.
- After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance with the Storage and Disposal section in this label.

- Apply after October 15 north of Route 91 in NE and south of Route 30 in IA.
- Apply after October 31 north of Route 136 in IL.
In all locations, apply to crop stubble after harvest when the sustained soil temperature at a 4-inch depth is less than 55°F and falling. In minimum-till or no-tillage systems on soils having greater than 2.5% organic matter, use 1.67-2.0 pts./A on medium- textured and 2.0 pts./A on fine-textured soils. A tillage operation may precede the application. A fall and/or a spring tillage may follow application, but DO NOT exceed an incorporation depth greater than 2-3 inches. Minimize furrow and ridge formation in the tillage operations.
Restrictions: (1) If a spring application is made, the total rate of the fall plus spring applications must not exceed the maximum total rate for corn, or illegal residues may result. (2) DO NOT apply to frozen ground.
Fall Application for Italian Ryegrass Control: Cinch may be applied for residual control of glyphosate- resistant Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum). Apply Cinch at 1.33-1.67 pt/A in the fall (September 1- December 1) after harvest of the previous crop and prior to Italian ryegrass emergence. Use the lower Cinch rate for coarse-textured soils and the higher rate for fine-textured soils. A tillage operation may precede the application. DO NOT incorporate to a depth greater than 2-3 inches if tillage follows the application of Cinch. For fall applications after emergence of glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass, “Gramoxone” brands can be tank-mixed with Cinch to control emerged ryegrass. Refer to the “Gramoxone” brands label for specific rates, application instructions, and restrictions. Other registered herbicides may be tank-mixed with Cinch for control or improved control of other weeds present at the time of application. Restrictions: 1) DO NOT apply to frozen ground. 2) If a spring application is made, the combined total amount of Cinch applied in the fall plus the spring must not exceed the maximum S- metolachlor rate for corn per year (3.9 pt/A [3.71 lb ai/A], depending on soil texture), or illegal residues may result.
Fall Application for Control or Suppression of Yellow Nutsedge (ID,OR, and WA only): For pre- emergent control or suppression of yellow nutsedge the following spring, apply 1.33 pt/A of Cinch in the fall after the harvest of the previous crop but before freeze-up. Fall applications of Cinch can be surface- applied or incorporated. Restrictions: (1) Make no more than one fall application per crop. (2) Apply not more than 1.33 pt/A in a single fall preplant application. (3) DO NOT apply to frozen ground. (4) If a spring application is made, the combined total amount of Cinch applied in the fall plus the spring must not exceed the maximum S-metolachlor rate for corn per year (3.9 pt/A [3.71 lb ai/A], depending on soil texture), or illegal residues may result.
EARLY PREPLANT APPLICATIONS:
Use on medium- and fine-textured soils with minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems in CO, IA, IL, IN, KS, KY, MN, MO, MT, ND, NE, SD, TN, WI, and WY. Apply 2/3 the specified rate of Cinch (1.67 pts./A on medium soils and 2.0 pts./A on fine soils) as a split treatment 30-45 days before planting and the remainder at planting. Applications made less than 30 days prior to planting may be as either a split or single treatment. Apply 1.33 pts./A on coarse soils not more than 2 weeks before planting. Restrictions: If a spring application is made, the total rate of the fall plus spring application must not exceed the maximum total rate for corn, or illegal residues may result.
On medium- and fine-textured soils with minimum- or no-tillage systems in CT, DE, MA, MD, ME, MI, NH, NY, OH, PA, RI, VA, VT, and WV, preplant surface applications may be applied following the directions
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 18
for use above. If the amount of rainfall results in unsatisfactory length of weed control following the earlier treatment, a postemergence application of an appropriately labeled broadleaf and/or grass weed herbicide may be used, i.e., Cinch, Cinch ATZ, Cinch ATZ LITE, Accent Q, Basis Blend, Realm Q, Resolve Q, Revulin Q or Steadfast Q. If the postemergence treatment includes the herbicide used preplant surface-applied, DO NOT exceed the total labeled rate for corn on a given soil texture. Observe all directions for use, precautions, and limitations on the label of the postemergent herbicide.
PREPLANT INCORPORATED OR PREEMERGENCE
Follow instructions for use of Cinch alone under Application Procedures. On coarse soils, apply 1.0- 1.33 pts./A of Cinch if organic matter content is less than 3%, or 1.33 pts./A if organic matter content is 3% or greater. On medium soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pts./A of Cinch. On fine soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pts./A of Cinch if organic matter content is less than 3%, or 1.67-2.0 pts./A if organic matter content is 3% or greater.
POSTEMERGENCE OR LAY-BY
To extend the duration of weed control in corn, a maximum rate of 2.0 pts./A of Cinch may be applied after corn emergence until the corn plants reach 40 inches in height, following any preplant surface- applied, preplant incorporated, or preemergence herbicide application, including Cinch. For best results, applications should be made to soil free of emerged weeds and directed toward the base of corn plants in excess of 5 inches tall. The total Cinch rate applied on corn during any one crop year should not exceed 3.9 pts./A/year (3.71 lb ai/A/year), depending on soil texture.
PLANNED 2-PASS GRASS WEED CONTROL PROGRAMS
When used as a part of a 2-pass, preemergence followed by postemergence grass weed control program, Cinch rates may be reduced to as low as 1.0 - 1.33 pt/ac when followed with applications of full labeled rates of postemergence grass herbicides registered for this use such as Accent Q, Basis Blend, Realm Q, Resolve Q, Revulin Q or Steadfast Q. Planned 2-pass weed control programs are the preferred method for managing difficult to control weeds such as woolly cupgrass and wild proso millet. Follow all label directions on the postemergence grass herbicide label for weeds controlled, use directions, precautions, and limitations.
PROBLEM WEED CONTROL DIRECTIONS
Shattercane, Wild Proso Millet, Woolly Cupgrass, and Eclipta – Partial Control: For more consistent partial control of shattercane, wild proso millet, woolly cupgrass, or eclipta, apply 1.0-1.33 pts./A of Cinch preplant incorporated followed by 1.0-1.33 pts./A of Cinch preemergence. Make the preemergence application during or after planting, but before weeds and corn emerge. Apply the 1.33 pts./A rate of Cinch when a heavy infestation of shattercane, wild proso millet, woolly cupgrass, or eclipta is expected. A shallow cultivation may be needed to control any late emerging weeds.
Woolly Cupgrass and Wild Proso Millet Control Program: For control of these species, see "PLANNED 2-PASS GRASS WEED CONTROL PROGRAMS" (above).
Precaution: In corn, Cinch may be used up to 2.5 pt/A as either a preplant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment on soils having an organic matter content between 6% and 20%.
Restrictions: (1) DO NOT apply more than the labeled application rate for a given soil texture per year, either as a single or split treatment, or illegal residues may result. (2) In the event of escape of annual weeds following a preplant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment of Cinch, follow with a postemergence application of an appropriately labeled broadleaf and/or grass weed herbicide, i.e., Accent Q, Basis Blend, Realm Q, Resolve Q or Steadfast Q. If the postemergence treatment includes the herbicide used in the earlier treatment, i.e., “atrazine”, DO NOT exceed the total labeled rate for corn on a
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 19
given soil texture. (3) DO NOT use Cinch on peat or muck soils.
CORN – CINCH COMBINATIONS
Rates listed for tank mix partners are for the specific products noted in this label. If other brands or formulations are used, rates of active ingredients should be adjusted to correspond to the products indicated.
Formulations of products other than those listed may not have been tested with Cinch. Check with the manufacturer for information on tank mix compatibility prior to using (See MIXING PROCEDURES - Compatibility Test).
Cinch in any tank mixture for corn may be applied in water or fluid fertilizer before corn emerges. Use only water as a carrier when Cinch is applied after corn emergence.

limitations on the respective product labels when applying these products in tank mix combination. Use Resolve Q combinations only on field corn.
TANK MIXTURE WITH “MARKSMAN” IN CONSERVATION TILLAGE – FIELD AND SILAGE CORN
In conservation tillage systems where corn is planted directly into a cover crop or previous crop residue, Cinch + “Marksman” will kill most emerged small annual weeds. Apply Cinch + “Marksman” before, during, or after planting, but before corn emergence on medium and fine soils with greater than 2.5% organic matter. For fields with existing vegetation exceeding 3 inches in height or when very dry conditions exist, add “Gramoxone” brands at its standard rate. Cinch + “Marksman” may be applied postemergence to corn less than 3 inches tall and before weedy grasses exceed the 2-leaf stage.
As carriers, nitrogen solutions and complete liquid fertilizers, applied before corn emergence, enhance burndown of existing weeds. DO NOT apply “Gramoxone” brands in suspension-type liquid fertilizer or use on emerged corn.
Refer to the “Marksman” label and follow all directions, limitations, precautions, and information regarding application and use in corn.
TANK MIXTURE WITH PREQUEL - FIELD CORN ONLY
The tank mixture of Cinch + Prequel controls weeds listed on the Cinch label, including pigweeds and eastern black nightshade, and provides improved control of problem species such as velvetleaf, tall and common waterhemp, jimsonweed, kochia, common lambsquarters, common ragweed, and others. Also, this tank mixture improves control of biotypes of these weeds resistant to ALS-inhibitor herbicides and to triazine herbicides. It will also contribute to the control of certain problem grass species including Texas panicum, woolly cupgrass and wild proso millet. Cinch improves both the duration and spectrum of annual grass and small-seeded broadleaf weed control, in particular yellow foxtail, witchgrass and yellow nutsedge. Application may be preplant surface-applied preplant incorporated, or preemergence in conventional tillage, conservation tillage, and no-till systems.
To reduce the risk of an adverse crop response, the Prequel label does not allow applications to coarse- textured soils with less than 1.0% organic matter and warns about applications to all soils with less than 1.5% organic matter or with pH greater than 7.5, as well as applications made to areas in fields with clay knolls, eroded hillsides, and exposed subsoil. Cinch has no adverse crop response warnings or use restrictions.
For coarse-textured soils: 1.0-1.33 pt./A of Cinch may be applied. DO NOT use Prequel on coarse- textured soils with less than 1.0% organic matter.
For medium-textured soils: Cinch can be used in combinations with Prequel from 1.33 up to 1.67 pt./A.
For fine-textured soils: Rates as low as 1.33 pt./A of Cinch may be applied if the soil organic matter is less than 3%; if the soil organic matter is 3% or greater, 1.67 pt./A of Cinch should be applied. Cinch can be used in combinations with Prequel at rates up to 2.0 pt./A on fine-textured soils if the organic matter is 3% or greater.
Observe all applicable directions, precautions, and limitations on the Cinch and Prequel labels when applying these products in tank mix combination in states where Prequel is registered.
TANK MIXTURES FOR POSTEMERGENCE WEED CONTROL IN CORN

Follow all label directions, instructions, precautions, and limitations for each product used. DO NOT use
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 25
liquid fertilizer with these mixtures or corn injury may occur. For each tank mixture, apply only to the specific field corn type specified on that product label. In-row weed control may be reduced because of lack of coverage when applied to corn over 4 inches tall.
CINCH + POST GRASS HERBICIDES
A. For Additional Control of Later Emerging Grasses in Field Corn Only
Postemergence grass herbicides such as Accent Q, Basis Blend, Realm Q, Resolve Q and Steadfasts Q may be tank mixed with full or reduced rates of Cinch for increased residual activity on later-emerging grasses. Postemergence grass herbicides may be applied in tank mix combination with Cinch provided (1) the timing and method of application is the same as specified for Cinch; and (2) tank mixing Cinch is not prohibited by the label of the postemergence grass herbicide product; and (3) the tank mix combination is compatible as determined by a “jar test” described in the “MIXING INSTRUCTIONS - Compatibility Test” section of this label.
When tank mixing, DO NOT exceed specified application rates and use only in accordance with the most restrictive precautions and limitations on the respective product labels. Apply before the crabgrass emerges and before other grass weeds on the postemergence grass herbicide label exceed their labeled sizes.
Tank mixes of Cinch and postemergence grass herbicides may be broadcast applied postemergence to field corn before the crop exceeds the maximum heights listed on the Cinch and postemergence grass herbicide labels.
Cinch relies on activation from either rainfall or overhead sprinkler irrigation to move the herbicide into the grass weed germination zone and provide control. The amount of precipitation or irrigation required is dependent upon existing soil moisture, soil type and organic matter content. Normally, 1/2- 3/4 inch is sufficient. If activating moisture is not received, cultivation may be required to control later emerging flushes of weeds.
Consult the postemergence grass herbicide label for weeds controlled, use directions, adjuvant recommendations, precautions, and limitations.
B. Cinch + Liberty Herbicide or “Ignite” 280 SL herbicide: Postemergence use in “LibertyLink” Corn or Corn Warranted by Bayer CropScience as being tolerant to “Liberty” herbicide or “Ignite” 280 SL herbicide
These tank mixtures can be applied postemergence to weeds and corn from seed designated as “LibertyLink” or corn warranted by Bayer CropScience as being tolerant to Liberty herbicide or “Ignite” 280 SL herbicide. Liberty provides postemergence control of a broad spectrum of grass and broadleaf weeds and the Cinch provides residual control of grasses and broadleaf weeds listed in the label section Cinch Applied Alone – Corn – Weeds Controlled. For the proper rate of Cinch applied postemergence with “Ignite” 280 SL, refer to the label section Corn - Cinch Alone - Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence and use the minimum rate per soil texture for season-long control. Refer to the Liberty herbicide or “Ignite” 280 SL label for the postemergence application rate according to weed species and their maximum height at the time of postemergence application. Where multiple weed species are present, use the highest rate specified to control the species and growth stages present.
Follow all applicable use directions, limitations, precautions, and information regarding application to corn on the Cinch and Liberty or “Ignite” 280 SL herbicide labels.
C. Cinch + Abundit Extra or “Roundup” Brands for Postemergence Application to Glyphosate- Tolerant Corn (e.g., “Roundup Ready”)

COTTON – CINCH ALONE
Apply Cinch postemergence to cotton and preemergence to weeds at 0.5-1.33 pt./A, according to the state limitations in the following Postemergence section.
Fall Application for Italian Ryegrass Control: Cinch may be applied for residual control of glyphosate- resistant Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum). Apply Cinch at 1.33-1.67 pt./A in the fall (September 1 - December 1) after harvest of the previous crop and prior to Italian ryegrass emergence. Use the lower Cinch rate for coarse-textured soils and the higher rate for fine-textured soils. A tillage operation may precede the application. DO NOT incorporate to a depth greater than 2-3 inches if tillage follows the application of Cinch. For fall applications after emergence of glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass, “Gramoxone” brands can be tank-mixed with Cinch to control emerged ryegrass. Refer to the “Gramoxone” brands label for specific rates, application instructions, and restrictions. Other registered herbicides may be tank-mixed with Cinch for control or improved control of other weeds present at the time of application.
Restrictions: 1) DO NOT apply to frozen ground. 2) If a spring application is made, the combined total amount of Cinch applied in the fall plus the spring must not exceed the maximum S-metolachlor rate for cotton per year (2.6 pt./A/year [2.48 lb ai/A/year], depending on soil texture).
Postemergence: Apply Cinch broadcast over the top or directed to the soil surface according to the rate limitations listed below by state. Over-the-top postemergence application may be made not later than 100 days before harvest, and directed- postemergence application may be made not later than 80 days before harvest. Application before weeds emerge or after clean cultivation to remove existing weeds is necessary since Cinch will not control emerged weeds. Cinch postemergence may be applied over any previous registered herbicide treatment. In sprinkler-irrigated areas, sprinkler irrigate after application with ½-1 inch of water (1/2 inch on coarse-textured soils to 1 inch on fine-textured soils) to incorporate Cinch.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 27
In furrow-irrigated areas, apply Cinch, incorporate with a rolling cultivator or similar implement that provides uniform shallow incorporation (2 inches or less), and then irrigate. In non-irrigated areas, if at least ½ inch of rainfall does not occur within 10 days after application, cultivate with a rolling cultivator or similar implement that provides uniform shallow incorporation of Cinch.
VA, NC, SC, GA, FL, and AL: Apply Cinch postemergence at 1.0-1.33 pt./A.
TN, AR, KS, MS, MO, and LA: Apply Cinch postemergence at 0.5-1.33 pt./A.

Cinch may be applied preplant or preemergence for the control or suppression of grass and small-seeded weeds in immature-seed soybean or other food-grade soybeans. For specific rates, see the rate table listed below.
Preplant Surface-Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems only, Cinch alone may be applied up to 45 days before planting. Use only split applications for treatments made 30-45 days before planting, with 2/3 the recommended broadcast rate for the crop and soil texture applied initially and the remaining 1/3 applied at planting. Treatments less than 30 days before planting may be made either as a split or a single application. If weeds are present at the time of treatment, apply in a tank mixture combination with a contact herbicide (e.g., “Gramoxone” brands, Abundit Extra, or “Roundup”). Observe directions for use, precautions, and restrictions on the label of the contact herbicide. To the extent possible, DO NOT move treated soil out of the row or move untreated soil to the surface during planting, or weed control will be diminished.
Preplant Incorporated: Apply Cinch to the soil and incorporate into the top 2 inches of soil within 14 days before planting, using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling cultivator, or similar implement capable of providing uniform 2-inch incorporation. Use a preplant incorporated application if furrow irrigation is used or when a period of dry weather after application is expected. If crop will be planted on beds, apply and incorporate Cinch after bed formation, unless specified otherwise.
Preemergence: Apply Cinch during planting (behind the planter) or after planting, but before weeds

Precaution: Cinch will not control emerged weeds. Control weeds that are present by another means, e.g., mechanical means or by another herbicide.
Restrictions: (1) DO NOT cut for hay within 120 days following a Cinch application. (2) DO NOT use for forage within 60 days following a Cinch application. (3) DO NOT apply more than 2.0 pt./A of Cinch during any one crop year.
GRASSES GROWN FOR SEED (ID, OR, WA) – CINCH APPLIED ALONE
To control weeds and volunteer grasses in established grasses grown for seed, apply Cinch to established stands of tall fescue, orchardgrass, perennial ryegrass, fine fescue, bentgrass, and Kentucky bluegrass just before, during, or immediately following the first fall rains or just before or during a late summer or early fall irrigation, but before target grasses emerge. The seed crop must have had one seed harvest or been established at least one year. The postharvest residue (straw) should be evenly spread, removed, or burned before applying Cinch. Rainfall or irrigation is required after application and before weed emergence for best control. Cinch will provide preemergence control/suppression of volunteer seedlings of perennial ryegrass, fine fescue species, tall fescue, orchardgrass, bentgrass, and Kentucky bluegrass. Cinch will control those weed species listed in the Cinch Alone section of the Cinch label and will suppress or control rattail fescue, annual bluegrass, Italian ryegrass, California brome, downy brome, and roughstalk bluegrass.
Apply Cinch by ground equipment in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre using the rate listed below according to grass species.
Established Grass Crop Grown for Seed Pt./A Fine fescue species Perennial ryegrass Bentgrass Kentucky bluegrass Orchardgrass Tall fescue 1.0 1.0 1.0-1.33 1.0-1.33 1.0-1.33 1.0-1.33
Precautions: (1) Avoid application after the 15th of November or poor control may result. (2) Tank mixtures with other pesticides, or the addition of an adjuvant, can increase the risk of crop injury. (3) Application to perennial ryegrass and fine fescue stands under stress may cause crop injury. (4) If weed escapes occur following a Cinch application, an application of a postemergence herbicide may be necessary to control escapes. When making such an application, follow all directions, precautions, and limitations on the label of the postemergence herbicide. (5) Control may be decreased if excessive straw from the previous harvest is present at application and/or insufficient rainfall/irrigation occurs.
Restrictions: (1) Apply Cinch only once per crop year. (2) DO NOT graze forage regrowth for 60 days following application west of the Cascades. (3) In areas east of the Cascades, DO NOT graze forage regrowth for 150 days following application. (4) Hay may be harvested anytime between seed harvest and

PUMPKIN – CINCH ALONE
Preemergence
Apply Cinch preemergence (before the weeds have emerged) at 1.0 to 1.33 pt./A as an inter-row or inter- hill application in pumpkin. Leave 1 foot of untreated area over the row, or 6 inches to each side of the planted hill and/or any emerged pumpkin foliage (inter-row or inter-hill means not directly over the planted seed or young pumpkin plants). Use the lower Cinch rate on soils light in texture (loamy sand or lighter) and low in soil organic matter (less than 3%). Cinch applied as a broadcast spray over the planted row or hill, or applications made directly to crop foliage, will increase the risk of injury (e.g., stand loss, delayed maturity, and loss of yield) to the pumpkin crop. DO NOT apply Cinch closer than 30 days before pumpkin harvest. Cinch will not control emerged weeds, and thus should be applied before the weeds emerge. Weeds that are present should be controlled by another means, e.g., by mechanical means or by another herbicide.
RHUBARB – CINCH ALONE
Apply Cinch at a broadcast rate of 0.67-1.33 pt./A to the soil surface in early spring, prior to crop emergence. Use lower rates on soils relatively coarse-textured and higher rates on fine-textured soils. A band application may also be used, applying proportionally less spray mixture on the area actually treated. Cinch will not control emerged weeds. Control emerged weeds with an appropriate registered foliar herbicide or by mechanical or physical means.
Restrictions: (1) Make only one application of Cinch per crop. (2) DO NOT apply more than 1.33 pt./A (1.27 lb ai/A) of Cinch per crop. (3) DO NOT harvest rhubarb within 62 days of the Cinch application.
SAFFLOWER – CINCH ALONE
Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence: Follow instructions for use of Cinch alone under Application Procedures.
On coarse soils, apply 1.0-1.33 pts./A of Cinch if organic matter content is less than 3%, or 1.33 pts./A if organic matter is 3% or greater. On medium soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pts./A of Cinch. On fine soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pts./A of Cinch if organic matter content is less than 3%, or 1.67-2.0 pts./A if organic matter content is 3% or greater.
GRAIN OR FORAGE SORGHUM (SEED TREATED WITH “CONCEP”) – CINCH ALONE
Apply Cinch, either preplant surface, preplant incorporated, preemergence or postemergence, using the appropriate rate specified below. Apply Cinch alone only when the sorghum seed has been properly treated with “Concep” seed treatment. Preplant or preemergence applications of Cinch not treated with “Concep” seed treatment will result in crop death.
Fall Application for Italian Ryegrass Control: Cinch may be applied for residual control of glyphosate- resistant Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum). Apply Cinch at 1.33-1.67 pt./A in the fall (September 1- December 1) after harvest of the previous crop and prior to Italian ryegrass emergence. Use the lower Cinch rate for coarse-textured soils and the higher rate for fine-textured soils. A tillage operation may precede the application. DO NOT incorporate to a depth greater than 2-3 inches if tillage follows the application of Cinch. For fall applications after emergence of glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass, “Gramoxone” brands can be tank-mixed with Cinch to control emerged ryegrass. Refer to the “Gramoxone” brands label for specific rates, application instructions, and restrictions. Other registered herbicides may be tank-mixed with Cinch for control or improved control of other weeds present at the time of application. Restriction: (1) If a spring application is made, DO NOT apply Cinch or any other product containing S-metolachlor the following spring to grain or forage sorghum, or illegal residues may result. (2) DO NOT apply to frozen ground.

Preplant Surface-Applied: Refer to instructions for use of Cinch under Application Procedures section of this label. For minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems only, apply Cinch up to 45 days before planting in CO, IA, IL, KS, MO, NE, and SD. Use only split applications for treatments made 30-45 days prior to planting, with 2/3 of the broadcast rate applied initially and the remaining 1/3 at planting. Apply 1.5 pts./A of Cinch on medium soils or 1.67 pts./A on fine soils. Treatments less than 30 days prior to planting may be made either as a split or single application. Apply 1.33 pts./A of Cinch on coarse soils not more than 2 weeks prior to planting. Under dry conditions, irrigation after application is recommended to move Cinch into the soil.
Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence: Refer to instructions for use of Cinch under Application Procedures section on this label. Broadcast 1.0-1.33 pts./A of Cinch on coarse soils, 1.33-1.5 pts./A on medium soils, or 1.33-1.67 pts./A on fine soils.
Postemergence: Refer to instructions for use of Cinch under Application Procedures section on this label. Cinch may be applied broadcast postemergence at 1.0-1.33 pt./A on coarse soils, 1.33-1.5 pt./A on medium soils, or 1.33-1.67 pt./A on fine soils. Cinch will not control emerged weeds. Therefore, emerged weeds must be controlled by cultural or chemical means. When applied alone, Cinch will be safe to emerged sorghum. The risk of sorghum injury increases when adjuvants (e.g., non-ionic, crop oil), nitrogen sources (e.g., AMS, UAN), or fertilizers are applied with Cinch.
Precautions: (1) If sorghum seed is not properly treated with “Concep”, seed treatment, preplant and preemergence applications of Cinch will severely injure the crop. (2) Under high soil moisture conditions prior to sorghum emergence, injury may occur following preplant and preemergence applications of Cinch. The crop will normally outgrow this effect. (3) Injury may occur if Cinch is used on sorghum grown under dry mulch tillage.
Restrictions: (1) Except for the split preplant surface treatment, DO NOT make more than one application per year. (2) Post- harvest Interval (PHI): DO NOT apply Cinch postemergence within 75 days of harvest.
GRAIN OR FORAGE SORGHUM (SEED TREATED WITH “CONCEP”) – CINCH TANK MIXTURES
Cinch preplant or preemergence (prior to sorghum emergence) tank mixtures with atrazine may be applied in water or fluid fertilizer. Apply Cinch preplant or preemergence in tank mixtures only when the sorghum seed has been properly treated by the seed company with “Concep” seed treatment. Preplant or preemergence applications of Cinch to sorghum not treated with “Concep” seed treatment will result in crop death.
IMPORTANT: FOR TANK MIXTURES WITH ATRAZINE – If applying Cinch in tank mixture with atrazine, all the restrictions and rate limitations on the atrazine label must be followed if more restrictive/protective than those on this label. In addition, if atrazine is/must be applied at rates lower than those specified on this label, broadleaf weed control may be affected. Refer to the atrazine label for weeds controlled at the reduced rates.
Precautions: (1) Applications of Cinch + atrazine on highly alkaline soils or on eroded areas where calcareous subsoils are exposed may cause sorghum injury. (2) If sorghum seed is not properly treated with “Concep”, Cinch + atrazine may severely injure the crop. (3) Under high soil moisture conditions prior to sorghum emergence, injury may occur following preplant and preemergence applications of Cinch + atrazine. The crop will normally outgrow this effect. (4) Injury may occur if Cinch + atrazine is used on sorghum grown under dry mulch tillage.
Restrictions: (1) Except for the split preplant surface treatment, DO NOT make more than one application per year.

POSTEMERGENCE USE ON SOYBEANS - CINCH TANK MIXTURES
Tank Mixture with Classic ® or Synchrony®
Cinch at 1.0-1.33 pts./A may be tank mixed with Classic or Synchrony at labeled rates and applied from the first trifoliate but at least 90 days before harvest. Cinch alone will not control emerged weeds.
Tank Mixture with Glyphosate Products (e.g. Abundit Extra or “Roundup” Brands)
Cinch at 1.0-1.33 pts/A may be tank mixed with glyphosate products such as Abundit Extra at labeled rates and applied early post emergence to Roundup Ready or glyphosate-tolerant soybeans. Cinch alone will not control emerged weeds. Use this treatment only on soybeans designated for use with glyphosate (e.g., Roundup Ready or glyphosate-tolerant soybeans). The glyphosate product must be registered for postemergence use in Roundup Ready or glyphosate-tolerant soybeans)
Tank Mixture with “Liberty” Herbicide or “Ignite” 280 SL
Cinch at 1.0-1.33 pts/A may be tank mixed with “Liberty” herbicide or “Ignite” 280 SL herbicide at labeled rates and applied early post emergence. Cinch alone will not control emerged weeds. Use this treatment only on soybeans designated for use with glufosinate (e.g., Liberty Link)
SUGAR BEETS –CINCH ALONE
Postemergence Applications
Cinch may be applied postemergence to sugar beets after the sugar beets have reached the first true-leaf stage. However, because Cinch is primarily a soil-active herbicide, it must be applied prior to weed emergence in order to provide consistent control of listed weeds. As such, weeds that are emerged with or before the crop, or that are present at the time Cinch is applied, must be controlled with another appropriately labeled herbicide. Apply Cinch at 1 pt./A on coarse soils, 1.33 pt./A on medium soils, and 1.67 pt./A on fine soils. More than one postemergence application may be applied, but the total should not exceed 2.6 pt./A/year (2.48 lb ai/A/year). Weeds present at the time of application will not be controlled.
Restrictions: To avoid possible illegal residues: (1) DO NOT apply more than 2.6 pt/A/year (2.48 lb ai/A/year) postemergence. (2) DO NOT harvest within 60 days after the last application.
Precaution: In coarse soils, Cinch applied before emergence of sugar beets (i.e., other than postemergence) may cause injury.
SUGAR BEETS – CINCH TANK MIX COMBINATIONS
Cinch may be tank-mixed with Assure® II, Betamix®, “Poast”, “Progress”, “Select”, “Stinger”, or Upbeet
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 50
and applied to sugar beets. Tank mixtures of these products with Cinch will increase the risk of crop injury over that of either product applied alone, as the Cinch formulation has some adjuvant properties. The addition of a spray adjuvant such as crop oil concentrates (COC’s) or methylated seed oils (MSO’s) can further increase the risk of crop injury. Injury risk can be reduced by using the lowest effective rate of the tank mix partner(s) and/or adjuvant and by avoiding applications under adverse growing conditions or high soil or air humidity. Refer to the individual product labels and follow all use restrictions and limitations.
TANK MIXTURE WITH ABUNDIT EXTRA OR “ROUNDUP” BRANDS FOR USE ON “ROUNDUP READY” SUGAR BEETS ONLY
Apply Cinch as a tank mixture with Abundit Extra or “Roundup” in water postemergence over-the-top or postemergence-directed for control of emerged weeds listed on the Abundit Extra or “Roundup” labels and for residual preemergence control of weeds listed on the Cinch label. See the SUGAR BEETS – Cinch ALONE – Postemergence section of this label for rates and timings of Cinch and follow the Abundit Extra or “Roundup” label for their respective rates, application methods, and application timing restrictions. DO NOT add additional spray adjuvants, surfactants, fertilizer additives, or pesticides to this tank mixture if applied postemergence over-the-top, or unacceptable injury may occur. Refer to the Abundit Extra or “Roundup” brand label and follow appropriate use directions, application procedures, precautions, and limitations.
Precautions: (1) DO NOT apply this tank mixture postemergence to any sugar beet variety unless it is designated Roundup Ready and unless the Abundit Extra or “Roundup” formulation being used is registered for postemergence use in Roundup
Ready Sugar Beets. (2) DO NOT apply Abundit Extra or “Roundup” postemergence over-the-top to sugar beets past the growth stage limit specified on their respective labels.
SUNFLOWERS – CINCH ALONE
Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence
Within the rate ranges given below, use the higher rate of Cinch if heavy weed infestations are expected. On coarse soils with organic matter less than 3%, apply 1.0-1.33 pt./A of Cinch; apply 1.33 pt./A if organic matter is 3% or greater. On medium soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pt./A of Cinch. On fine soils with organic matter of less than 3%, apply 1.33-1.67 pt./A of Cinch; apply 1.67-2.0 pt./A if organic matter is 3% or greater.
Restrictions: To avoid possible illegal residues: (1) DO NOT allow livestock to graze or feed in treated area. (2) DO NOT exceed the maximum label rates for sunflowers for the soil type.
TOMATOES – CINCH ALONE
Transplanted
Cinch may be applied preplant incorporated or preplant before transplanting. If the latter method is used, keep soil disturbance to a minimum during the transplanting operation. Application may also be post- directed to transplants after the first settling rain or irrigation. When an application is made post-directed, apply in a minimum of 20 gallons of water per acre and minimize contact with tomato plants. Cinch will not control emerged weeds. In bedded transplanted tomatoes, apply Cinch preplant non-incorporated to the top of the pressed bed as the last step prior to laying plastic. Cinch may also be used to treat row-middles in bedded tomatoes, as long as the total amount of Cinch does not exceed the maximum allowed per crop.
A73 / Cinch / MSTR / Amend / 01-12-23 Page 51
Seeded
Cinch may be applied post-directed to direct-seeded tomatoes. Tomato plants must be at least 4 inches tall at the time of application, and the product must be applied in a minimum of 20 gallons of water per acre. Minimize spray contact with tomato plants. Cinch will not control emerged weeds.
Tomato Use Rates: On coarse soils, apply 1.0-1.33 pt./A of Cinch if organic matter is less than 3% or 1.33 pt./A if organic matter is 3% or greater. On medium soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pt./A of Cinch. On fine soils, apply 1.33-1.67 pt./A of Cinch if organic matter is less than 3% or 1.67-2.0 pt./A if organic matter is 3% or greater.
Precautions: (1) Application to varieties or cultivars with unknown tolerance to Cinch may result in crop injury. (2) Cinch may damage transplants that have been weakened by any cause. To prevent damage, plant only healthy transplants and avoid planting when wet, cool, or unfavorable growing conditions exist. (3) In transplanted tomatoes, if Cinch is applied preplant incorporated, incorporate to a depth less than the depth of transplanting, and use the lower end of the rate range for the given soil type, or damage may occur. (4) For row-middle applications where tomatoes are grown on sandy soils and where high soil moisture conditions can exist (e.g., low binding and high evaporation conditions), as may be found in the States of Florida, Georgia, Maryland, and Virginia, there is potential for crop injury in the form of leaf epinasty. The risk of this type of injury can be reduced by: a) incorporating the Cinch immediately following application, b) applying the Cinch seven or more days before transplanting (but only after the beds have been formed), c) minimizing the application of Cinch onto the plastic of the bed, or d) any combination of the above.
Restrictions: To avoid possible illegal residues: (1) DO NOT exceed the maximum label rate for the soil texture per year. (2) Apply only by ground application.
Restrictions:
90-Day PHI – If the single application rate of Cinch is greater than 1.33 pt./A (up to 2.0 pt./A), DO NOT harvest tomatoes within 90 days of application.
30-Day PHI – If the application of Cinch does not exceed 1.33 pt./A, DO NOT harvest tomatoes within 30 days of application.
When applying at 1.33 pt./A with a 30-day PHI, the following restrictions apply:
x DO NOT exceed two applications per growing season. x The use of adjuvants is prohibited. x Applications may be made using ground equipment, in concentrated spray volumes. x Applications may be made as a foliar broadcast spray to the soil within 1 week of transplanting and again at blooming/fruiting to the row middles as a banded/directed application 38-77 days after the first treatment.
