DuPont TId SYNCHRONY~ STS® SP herbiciee must be
used only in accordance v.i!h recommendation:; on this label
or in separately published DuPont recommerulltions.
APPLICATION INFORMATION - ALL USES
• DuPont SYNCHRONY<l'> STS® SP herbiciee is a
dispersible granule fonnulation which is pr=easured into
2.0 ounce soluble packets that readily dissohe in water.
• SYNCHRONY® STS® SP may be used in conventional,
na-till. or conservation tillage soybean prod:r..:ction.
TIming To Crop Stage
SYNCHRONY® STSQ> SP, for in-season me, may be
applied any time after the first trifoliate has "P"'ed but no
later than 60 days before soybean maturity .
• SYNCHRONY® STS® SP, for burndown U!e, may be
applied up to 30 days before planting, or prior to soybean
emergence after planting.
TIming To Weeds
• Apply SYNCHRONY® STS® SP when weeds are young
and actively growing (after the fIrst true leaves have
expanded, but before the weeds exceed the size indicated
below).
Applications made to weeds larger than the sizes indicated
below, or to weeds under stress, may result in unsatisfactory
control
Applications made after July 15 may result in less than
satisfactory weed control due to the large sizes of the weeds
aod increased weather stress.
Tank Mix Restrictlons
"'nen tank mixing SYNCHRONY® STS® SP with any other
approved soybean pesticide, always read and follow all use
directions, restrictions and precautions afbath SYNCHRONY®
STS® SP and the tank mix partner( s). When tank mixing. the
most restrictive labeling applies.
Cultivation
Do not cultivate within 7 days of application. Cultivation
may put weeds under stress by pruning roots, thus
diminishing control.
Cultivation approximately 14 days after application will help
control suppressed weeds.

completely as applications ofSYNCHRONY® STS® SP alone.
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP and Postemergence Grass
herbicides
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP and SYNCHRONY® STS® SP
tankmixes may be tank mixed with postemergence grass
herbicides such as DuPontThi ASSURE® II herbicide. For best
results, apply SYNCHRONY® STS® SP seven days before or
one day after the grass herbicide. Refer to the grass herbicide
label for precautions and specific use information.
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP and "FirstRate" herbicide
For improved Ragweed and Cocklebur control, add between
0.Q75 - 0.3 oz per acre to 0.5 oz per acre SYNCHRONY® STS®
SP. These tankrnixes will control up to 10" Cocklebur or
Common Ragweed and up to 12" Giant Ragweed. Use a lower
amount of ''FirstRate'' when weeds are less than the maximum
size and under good growing conditions. Use a higher amount of
"FirstRate" when weeds are approaching the maximum size
andlor under unfavorable growing conditions.
A good quality petroleum-based or methylated seed oil-based
crop oil concentrate must be added to the tank mix at the rate of 8
pints per 100 gallons of spray solution or at 1% vlv. An
ammonium nitrogen fertilizer may be added as directed under the
"Spray Additives" section.
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP and 2,4-DB
• In soybeans at least 8" tall, SYNCHRONY1\) STS® SP
may be tank mixed with 1-2 fl oz per acre of2,4-DB for
improved control of giant ragweed up to 4" tall, annual
momingglory and other broadleaf weeds.
• Applications ofSYNCHRONY® STS® SP and 2,4-DBmust
include a nonionic surfactant at the rate of 2 pints per 100 gal
or crop oil concentrate at 8 pints per 100 gal of spray solution
(1.0% v/v). See Spray Additives.
• Apply a tank mix ofSYNCHRONY® STS® SP and 2,4-DB
by ground only.
• In Kansas and Missouri (except the bootheel area), when
conditions are excessively hot and dry ( > 90
0
P and < 30%
relative humidity), make applications at the rate of2 f1 oz of
2,4-DB and SYNCHRONY® STS® SP.
• The use of crop oil concentrate may increase temporary
injury to soybeans.
Some crop response may occur 5-7 days after application of
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP and 2,4-DB to soybeans under
stress. Temporary yellowing, leaf crinkling, andlor soybean
growth retardation may occur following application of
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP and 2,4-DB. Under favorable
growing conditions, the crop win quickly recover.

SP applications.
For burndown applications of existing vegetation, flat fan
nozzles and a minimum of20 gallons per acre are
recommended so as to thoroughly wet the foliage to be burned
down.
Do not use flood, rain drop, whirl chamber, or controlled
droplet applicator (CDA) type nozzles. Unacceptable crop
injury, excessive spray drift, or poor weed control may resuh.
For proper spray coverage adjust the boom and nozzle height
according to the specifications listed by the nozzle
manufacturer.
Band Application
Because band applicators spray a narrower area than broadcast
applicators, use proportionately less spray solution for band
applications.
Carefully calibrate the band applicator to not exceed the
labeled rate.
Flat fan nozzles are recommended.
Carefully follow the n07Zle manufacturer's instructions for
nozzle orientation, distance of the n07Zies ftom the crop and
weeds, spray volumes, calibration, and spray pressure for band
applications.
• For additional infonnation on row banders, see DuPont
bulletin, "Application Accuracy - Row Banders."
Aerial Application
(See Also Spray Drift Management)
• Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum
spray distribution and maximum coverage at 3-5 gal per acre.
• Use a minimum of 3 gal water per acre. Under heavy weed
pressure or dense crop foliage, increase the minimum spray
vohnne to 5 gal per acre.
Do not apply during a temperature inversion, when winds are
gusty, or when other conditions could produce poor coverage
andlor off-largetspray movement.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
SYNCHRONY® STS® SP rapidly inhibits the growth of
susceptible weeds. Leaves of susceptible plants yellow 3-5 dsys
after application, fullowed, in controlled plants, by the death of
the growing point. SYNCHRONY® STS® SP will provide
complete control of suscepltble weeds in 7-21 days. Suppressed
plants may remain green but will be stunted and noncompetitive.
Stress affects some weeds, such as pigweed, more than others.
Delay application until suess passes and weeds start to grow
again.
Severe stress (drought. disease, insect dsmage, or nutrient
deficiency such as iron chlorosis) following application may also
result in poor weed control.
Do not apply S~CHRONY® STS® SP if rain is expected
within 1 hour or weed control may decrease.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SOIL PH
Soil pH varies greatly, even within the same field. pH variations
as much as 2 pH units are common. Composite soil samples
taken across an entire field, such as those samples taken for soil
fertility recommendations, may not detect areas of high pH. Sub­
sampling is recommended for areas ~'kely to have pH values
higher than the field average. The following is a non-inclusive
list of potential high pH areas where subsampling is
recommended
Where different soil types are evident within a field, sample
soil types separately.
Where conditions vary within a field, sample areas separately,
such as:
- areas bordered by limestone gravel roads,
- river bottoms subject to flooding,
- low areas in hardpan soils where evaporative ponds
may occur,
- eroded hillsides,
- along drain tile lines, and
- areas where drainage ditch spoil has been spread.
Where lime has not been deeply incorporated, soil may exlubit
significantly higher pH values in the upper 3 inches of soil.
Composite soil samples taken at a 6-8 inch depth may not
reflect the elevated pH near the surface. In these cases shallow
sampling, the upper 3 inches, is advised.
Detennine soil pH by laboratory analysis using a I: I soil:water
suspension.
SPRAYER PREPARATION AND CLEANUP
Prior to application of DuPont™ SYNCHRONY® STS®
SP, start with clean, well maintained application equipment.
hnmediately following application, thoroughly clean all
application equipment. Postponing action, even for a few
hours, only makes effective cleanup more difficnlt. Failure to
clean spraying equipment thoroughly may resnlt in injury to
subsequently sprayed crops.
When spraying mUltiple loads of SYNCHRONY® STS® SP
over an extended period of time, rinse the equipment with
clean water at the end of the day. Leave water in the equipment
ovemight to prevent deposits from drying on surfaces.
When applications of SYNCHRONY® STS® SP are
completed and prior to using the sprayer and associated
equipment for other products or for crops other than soybeans,
thoroughly clean the equipment using the procedure below.
STEP 1. Drain spray equipment. Thoroughly rinse sprayer, and
flush hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water.
Loosen and physically remove visible deposits.
STEP 2. Fill the sprayer with clean water and add household
ammonia (one gallon of3% active for every 100
gallons of water) or correct amount of a DuPont
approved cleaner*. Flush hoses, boom and nozzles.
Tum off the boom and top off the tank with clean
water. Circulate through the spraying system for IS
minutes. Flush the hoses, boom and nozzles with the
cleaning solution. Drain the tank.
STEP 3. Remove and clean nozzle., screens and strainers in a
bucket of fresh cleaner and water.
STEP 4. Repeat STEP 2.
STEP 5. Thoroughly rinse the sprayer, hoses, boom and
nozzles with clean water, several times.
Clean all other associated application equipment. Take all
necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. Do not
clean near wells, water sources or near desirable vegetation.
Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with loca1
regulations.

DuPont-approved cleaners, see DuPont Bulletin' A Guide
To Application Equipment Cleanout For DuPont

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
The interac:ion of many equipment and weather-related
factors dere:mines the potential for spray drift. The
applicator i; responsible for considering all these factors
when making application decisions.
A VOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF THE APPLICATOR.
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply
large droplas (> ISO - 200 microns). The best drift
management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that
provide sufficient coverage and control. The presence of
sensitive species nearby. the environmental conditions, and
pest pressuro may affect how an applicator halances drift
control and coverage. APPLYING LARGER DROPLETS
REDUCES DRIFT POTENTIAL, BUT WILL NOT
PREVENT DRIFT IF APPLICA nONS ARE MADE
IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE
ENVIROm.!ENTAL CONDmONS! See Wind,
Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions
sections of uus label.
Controlling Droplet Size· General Techniques
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest
practical ;pray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows
produce larger droplets.
8
Pressure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended
for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and
does not i:uprove canopy penetration. WHEN HIGHER
FLOW R.\ TES ARE NEEDED, USE A HlGHER­
CAPACITY NOZZLE INSTEAD OF INCREASING
PRESSURE.
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the
intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower
spray ang'es produce larger droplets. Consider using low­
drift nozzles.
Controlling Droplet Size· Aircraft
Number of Nozzles - Use CIe minimum number of nozzles
with the tighest flow rate that provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is
emitted backwards, parallel to the airstream will produce
larger drop lets than other orientations.
Nozzle Type - Solid stream nozzles (such as disc and core
with s" .. if. plate removed) oriented straight back produce
larger droplets than other nozzle types.
Boom Length - The boom length should not exceed 3/4 of
the wing .x rotor length - longer booms increase drift
potential.
Application Height· Application more than lOft above
the canory increases the potential for spray drift.-
BOOM HEIGHT
Setting the boom at the lowest labeled height (if specified)
which pro\ides uniform coverage reduces the exposure of
droplets to evaporation and ",;nd. For ground equipment, the
boom ShOl.Ld remain level with the crop and have minimal
bounce.
(
WIND
Drift potential increases at wind speeds ofless than 3 mph
(due to inversion potential) or more than 10 mph. However,
many factors, including droplet size and equipment type
determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID
GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDITIONS.
Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and
how they affect spray drift.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, set up
equipment to produce larger droplets to reduce effects of
evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion.
Temperature 'inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which
causes small suspended droplets to remain close to the
ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud.
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form
as the sun sets and often continue into the moming. Their
presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is
not present, inversions can also be identified 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.
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the
effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the
applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift and
not interfering with uniform deposition of the product.
AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLAST)
FIELD CROP SPRAYERS
Air assisted field crop sprayers carry droplets to the target via
a downward directed air stream. Some may reduce the
potential for drift, but if a sprayer is unsuitable for the
application andlor set up improperly, high drift potential can
result. It is the responsibility of the applicator to determine
that a sprayer is suitable for the intended application, is
configured properly, and that drift is not occurring.
Note: Air assisted field sprayers can affect product
performance by affecting spray coverage and canopy
penetration. Consult the application equipment section of
this label to detennine ifuse of an air assisted sprayer is
recommended.
AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLAST)
TREE AND VINE SPRAYERS
Air assisted tree and vine sprayers carry droplets into "oe
canopy of trees and vines via a radially or laterally directed
air stream. These sprayers are not suitable for applying
herbicides.
In addition to the general drift management principles
already descn"bed, the f()llowing specific practices will
further reduce the potential for drift.:
• Adjust deflectors and aiming devices so that spray is only
directed into the canopy.
BlDek off upward pointed nozzles when there is no
overhanging ClDWpy.
Use only enough air volume to penetrate the canopy and
provide good coverage.
• Do not allow spray to go beyond the edge oj the cultivated
area. Spray the outside row only from outside the
planting.
