FLUE CURED TOBACCOS ONLY: DYFONATE 4-ED in combination with TILLAM 6-E controls wireworms and certain weeds (see TILLAH 6-E label) in tobacco. Add to the spray tank and apply 1 quart DYFONATE 4-ED and 2-2/3 quarts TILLAM 6-E in 20 to 50 gallons of water per acre (see Appendix I). Use a properly calibrated, low-pressure, boom-type sprayer having good agitation. lKPORTANT: Refer to both DYFONATE 4-ED and TILLAH 6-E labels for pertinent directions for use, and use precautions and restrictions. The soil should be well worked and dry enough to permit good soil incorporation. The tank mix must be incorporated (mixed) into the soil immediately after application to prevent loss of the herbicide by evaporation. Whenever possible, application and incorporation should be done in the same operation. Use power driven cultivation equipment set to cut to a depth of 3" in light soil and 3" to 4" in heavy soil, or a tandem disc set to cut to a depth of 4" to 6". Cross disc at right angles for thorough mixing. The bedding operation should follow the incorporation as soon as practical. Planting may be done immediately after bedding or at a later date; however, to insure long term weed control, the crop should be planted as soon as possible after application and bedding. TOMATOES: For control of garden symphylans, apply 2 quarts of DYFONATE 4-ED per acre, broadcast, prior to planting and incorporate into the soil using suitable tillage equipment.

APPENDIX I Page 10 of 18 Dyfonate 4ED RS-01l990 PROCEDURE FOR TESTING THE TANK-MIX COMPATIBILITY OF DYFONATE 4-ED WITH FLUID FERTILIZERS AND DYPOkATE 4-£0 WITH HERBICIDES AND WATER OR FLUID FERTILIZERS. This procedure is suggested for determining whether DYFONATE 4-ED and a apecific fluid fertilizer and/or the specifically approved herbicide(s) may be combined for spray-tank application. Materials Required: a. b. DYFONATE 4-ED. DYFONATE 4-ED/herbicide combinations (EPTAM 7-E, ERADICANE 6.7-E, SUTAN + 6.7-E, TILLAM 6-E, Atrazine 80W or 4L, or Bladex 80W or 4L. 2. Water or fluid fertilizer to be used. 3. Adjuvant for tank mix - Compex*, Sponto* 168-D, Unite* or equivalent. The adjuvant which performs best depends on the specific fertilizer being considered. 4. Two one-quart, wide-mouth glass jars with tops. 5. Measuring spoons: a graduated cylinder or pipette will provide more accurate measurement). 6. Measuring cup, 8 oz. (237 mI.) Procedure:

  1. Add one pint (2 cups or approximately 473 al) of the test water or fluid fertilizer to each of the quart jars.
  2. Add adjuvant to one of the jars and mix (see rate tables).
  3. Carefully add the pesticides to each jar (see rate tables) as follows: a. If only DYFONATE 4-ED is to be used, add it directly to each jar. b. c. If a tank mix with a herbicide emulsifiabl~ concentrate is to be used, add the herbicide first and mix, and then add the DYFONATE 4-ED. • • ••••• • , .

  1. add and mix the wettable powder or flowable foraulation first (preaixing these in water prio~ to addition to fluid fertilizer often provides a more compatible mix with fluid fertilizer),
  2. Add and .ix the herbicide eaulsifiabe concentrate second,
  3. aDd finally, add the DYFONATE 4-ED. Securely close each jar using the top and mix the contents by inverting the jar ten tiaes. Inspect the mixtures immediately and after standing for thirty ~inutes wi thout lllixing. Dispose of jar mixea according to disposal statements contained within this label. A mixture may be incompatible if either of the following conditions is observed: a. an oil layer or large oil globules are observed, or b. sludge or clumps are present. If either mixture remains uniform for thirty minutes, the combination may be used. Should either mixture separate after thirty minutes, but remix readily with teu jar inversious, the combination can be used if good agitation is maintained in the spray tank. If nondispersible oil, sludge or cluaps persist, the combination DUst not be used. If the mixture with the adjuvant stays mixed, or remixes readily to form a uniform di.persion, but the one without adjuvant does not, be .ure to use the adjuvant in the spray tank. Add the adjuvant first to the water or fluid fertilizer at the reca.mended rate. Kin1lllize foaming by using moderate agitation. • • :····1 • • • • • • •• •• • • •••••• • • • •• • • • •••• ..... • • .... • ••••• • • • • • •••••• • • •• ••••• • • • •••• • •••••• • • •• • ••••• • • •• ••

  1. Fill the spray tank at least 2/3 full of the appropriate carrier fluid. Be sure tank is clean and not contaminated with 2,4-D type herbicides, oil residue or other .ateriala.
  2. Start agitation and continue moderate agitation throughout mixing and application procedures.
  3. Add the proper amount of adjuvant and mix (if adjuvant is to be used).
  4. Next add the Atrazine BOW or 4L or Bladex 80W or 4L (if it ia to be combined in the tank) and mix to disperse it thoroughly.
  5. Then add the herbicide emulsifiable concentrate (EPTAM 7-E, ERADICANE 6.7-E, SUTAN + 6.7-E or TILLAH 6-E and mix thoroughly •
  6. Lastly, add the DYFONATE 4-ED.
  7. Complete fill1ng the remaining portion of the tank with carrier fluid; mix thoroughly.
  8. The tank-mix combination should not be left in the spray tank for prolonged periods; batches should be mixed and applied the same day. NOTE: Constant moderate agitation is required for successful tank-mix preparation and application. Avoid excessive agitation which can cause tank-mix incompatibility. All return lines to the tank must discharge below l1q u id level. • • • •••••• • • • • • • • .. .. • • •••••• • • • .. • • • •••• •••• • • •••• •••••• • • • • • •••••• • • .. ••••• • • ••••• • •••••• • • .. •••••• • • .. ..
