GENERAL INFORMATION 
Tough 3.75 EC is a selective herbicide for postemergence control or suppression ~ adNety grOWing 
annual broadleaf weeds in peanuts, fiek:I corn, seed corn. and popcorn. Tough 3.75 EC is reconvnended to 
be used sequentially and/or tank-mixed with other herbicides as part of a complete weed control program. 
Tough 3.75 EC is an emulsifiable concentrate formulation containing 3.75 Ibs. of pyrKiate per gal. of 
product. 
Biological Activity: Tough 3.75 EC is a contact herbicide that is absorbed rapidly by the leaves of plants. 
Activity in sensitive weeds is evident by marginal yellowing, followed by yellowing and browning of the entire 
leaf. This visible evidence usually occurs within 4-7 days of application. Activity is more rapid at higher tem- •••• 
peratures and under good grOWing conditions. Weed control under adverse conditions suc:t"l as drought, lOW· ••••• 
temperatures, etc. may be deaeased. • • 
Uptake of Tough 3.75 EC is very rapid. Rainfall 1-2 hours after application has little effect 00 the degree or •• '.:

Mixing Instructions: Fill the spray tank 1/2 full with water. Add the required amount of T~ 3.~5 ic, mix ••• • 
thoroughly and add the remaining amount of water required for application. Maintain ~.a.gitation· ••••• 
during mixing and spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture. • •• • • •

Tough® 3.75 EC 
In tank mixes. after the spray tank is '/2 full of water, first add any wettable powders or dry flowables. Agitate 
until wettable powders or dry flowables are fully dispersed, Add any aqueous flowables. Agitate until 
solution is uniform. Add any emulsifiable liquids and Tough 3.75 EC Agitate until solution is uniform and 
maintain constant agitation until solution is completely applied, Always mix one product in water thoroughly 
before adding another product or compatibility problems may occur. Never mix two products together with­
out first mixing in water. It is recommended that a compatibility test be pertormed prior to tank mixing. 
Note: Agitation must be provided during mixing and spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture. Spray mix­
ture should be used immediately and not stored. 
Application: Tough 3.75 EC is noncorrosive to spray equipment. Before preparing spray mixture, be sure 
aU equipment is dean to prevent uneven applications, clogging of spray nOlzles, or crop injury. Apply Tough 
3.75 EC with a boom sprayer calibrated to a constant speed and constant, uniform delivery. Tough 3.75 EC 
should be applied in sufficient water (20-30 gals./A is recommended), at a pressure of 30-40 psi to ensure 
proper coverage. Thorough coverage of target weeds is required for optimum results, Use the higher spray 
volumes when treating dense or tall vegetation. Large crop and 'Need canopies can shelter smaller weeds. 
Directed applications below large crop canopies are recommended for optimum coverage of target weeds. 
Adjuvants (noniooic suriactants, crop oil. or liquid fertilizer) may be used with Tough 3.75 EC tank mixes 
where required by tank-mix partners specified in this label. Refer to Directions for Use section for specific 
adjuvant recommendations for use in corn and peanuts. 
On ;"(.! ,'.' thi: j :~".~., . ,';' -.': " . ::"~) thle vG'dstation. 
Application of Tough 3.75 EC with Or in liquid fertilizer solutions as a carrier is not recommended after corn 
emergence. 
For optimum control of broadleaf weeds, apply Tough 3.75 EC to actively growing weeds by the 4-leaf stage. 
A delay in sprayilg which permits weeds to grow beyond the proper application stage may result in 
decreased control. H weeds are under stress and not actively growing, they will be more difficult to control. 
Scout fields often to determine exact timing for application. tf treatments must be made under adverse 
conditions or to larger weeds, use the higher rate allowed in this label. Cultivation may be necessary after 
application if all weeds are not properly controlled or weeds regrow. 
Tough 3.75 EC and tank mixes with herbicides not prohibiting band application may be applied as a band 
treatment. 
Consult your state and local authorities for possible application restrictions and advice when applying Tough 
3.75 EC and tank mixes. 
Tough 3.75 EC rapidly decomposes in the soil and has no residual activity. No crop rotation restrictions exist 
ff normal harvest of treated crop has occurred. Peanuts, field corn, seed corn, or popcorn may be 
replanted immediately if this interval is Shortened, such as in catastrophtc crop failure from hail, flood, etc. 
Multiple applications of Tough 3.75 EC may be made providing that the maximum annual use rate is not 
exceeded. Refer to the Rates and Timings section under corn and peanuts. DO NOT plant to rotational 
crops other than peanuts, field corn, seed corn, or popcorn within 30 days of the last application of Tough 
3.75 EC. 
DO NOT appty this product through any type of irrigation equipment. 
rlELD CORN. SEED CORN*, AND POPCORN* 
Field corn is tolerant to Tough 3.75 EC at all stages of development. Tough 3.75 EC may be applied post­
emergence on field corn, seed corn, and popcorn up to 68 days prior to harvest. Timing of application must 
be based on the stage of weed growth for optimum weed control and minimal competition to the crop. 
'*00 not apply Tough 3.75 EC to seed corn or popcorn without first verifying with your local seed corn 
compaIly (supplier) the selectivity of Tough 3.75 EC 00 your inbred line or variety of seed corn or popcorn. 
This precaution wil help avoid potential injury of sensitive varieties. 
00 not graze or otherwise feed treated corn grain, forage, or fodder to livestock within 68 days of applica­
tion of Tough 3,75 EG.

Tank Mix Treatments In Corn 
Tough 3.75 EC may be tank-mixed with one or more of, but not limited to, the following herbicides for con­
trol of additional broadleaf weeds and/or grasses. Read and follow the label of each tank-mix product used 
for precautionary statements, directions for use, rates and timings, and other restrictions, 
Adjuvants (nonionic suriactants, crop oil, or liqutd fertilizer) may be used with Tough 3.75 EC tank mixes 
where required by tank-mix partners specified il this label. Read and carefully follow all restrictions and 
recommendations of tank-mix partners. Use of tank·mix partners is only allowed where permitted in each 
state. 
Tank-mixing Tough 3.75 EC with other corn herbtcides offers many benefits, including greater weed control 
spectrum, adding products with different modes of action to reduce or delay the development of herbicide' 
resistance by weeds, and optimizing pertormance of tank-mix partners, thus allowing a lower use rate of 
each as directed in the label. Optimization of performance is particularly beneficial when tank-mixing a resk1-
ual herbicide such as atrazine, thus decreasing carryover and other concerns associated with residual her­
bicides. Suggested tank mixes include but are not limited to: 
Tough 3.75 EC + Atrazlne: For additional broadleaf weed control (see weed list below), apP'Y '·2 pts. of 
Tough 3.75 EC with '-2 pts. of Atrazine (4L or the equivalent of 900F) per treated acre. The addition of a 
crop oil concentrate is recommended for optimum control. 
Use the lower rates of Tough 3.75 EC and atrazine when weeds have less than 4 leaves. For broadleaf 
weeds above 4-1ea1 stage. heavy infestation, or use under adverse conditions such as drought stress, use 
the higher rates of Tough 3.75 EC and atrazine. 
To control moderate infestations of escaped grasses following application of a preplant incorporated or pre­
emergence grass herbicide, apply 1-2 pts. of Tough 3.75 EC plus 2-3 pts. of atrazine (4L or the equivalent 
of 900F) per treated acre. Applications should be made before escaped grasses reach the 3-Iea1 stage (1.5 
inches tall). The addition of a crop oil concentrate is recommended for optimum contr'" of escaped 
grasses.

when sedges are 6-8 inches high for significant yellOlN and purple nutsedge suppression. The addition of a 
crop oi concentrate is recommended for improved activity. Tough 3.75 EC will burn back the top growth of 
the sedges. Regrowth may occur. Sedges must be actively growing without stress tor optimum results. 
R~te~ PI"tt T1minqs 
Tough 3.75 EC may be applied to emerged weeds in peanuts from cracking to 68 days before harvest. 
Tough 3.75 EC is recommended to be used as part of a sequential and seasonal peanut herbicide program. 
Dependilg upon the weed spectrum and emergence, It should be applied at cracking or postemergence, 
following a standard recommended preplan\, preptant incorporated, preemergence, or other at-cracking 
program of such herbicides as: Balan(!D EC, Vernam~ 7E. Dual~ BE, Sonalan"", and Prowl~ 3.3EC. See all 
labels of products used for specific rates and timings. 
Apply Tough 3.75 EC at 2-3 pts. per treated acre to emerged actively growing target weeds in the 2 to 4-leaf 
stage and up to 3 inches in height. Split applications of Tough 3.75 EC may be made, but do not exceed a 
total of 4 pts. per treated acre per year. Consult Application section of this label for best application timing 
'for achieving optimum weed control. 
Tank Mix Treatments In Peanuts 
Tough 3.75 EC may be tank-mixed with one or more of, but not limited to, the following herbicides for con­
trol of additional broadleaf weeds and/or grasses. Tank-mixing allows greater flexibility and a broader spec­
trum of weed control. Read and follow the label of each tank-mix product used for precautionary statements, 
directions for use, rates and timings, and other restrtct:ions. Suggested tank mixes include, but are not 
limited to: 
Tough 3.75 EC + 2.4~08 amine: For broad spectrum broadleaf weed control, apply 2-3 pts. of Tough 3.75 
EC with 0.2-0.25 lb. acid equivalent or 2,4-08 per treated acre. A nonionic surfactant or crop oil concentrate 
may be added to improve weed control. The addition of spray additives will increase the hormonal 2,4-08 
response in peanuts. In areas where lambsquarters and pigweed are the primary weed problems, apply 1.5 
pts. of Tough 3.75 EC tank·mixed wtth 0.2·0.25 lb. acid equivalent of 2.4·DB per treated acre.
