areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may
result in ground water contamination.
Surface Water Advisory
----~--~--Ine actfvelng-redientsin thlsproducfhave The -potential to contamlnate- surface-water­
through ground spray drift. Under some conditions, the active ingredients may also
have a high potential for runoff into surface water (primarily via dissolution in runoff
water) for several months post-application. These include poorly drained or wet soils
with readily visible slopes toward adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas,
areas overlaying extremely shallow ground water, areas with in-field canals or ditches
that drain to surface water, areas not separated from adjacent surface waters with
vegetated filter strips, and areas overlaying tile drainage systems that drain to surface
water.
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 for contamination of water from runoff. Runoff of this product will be reduced
by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours. Sound
erosion control practices will reduce this product's contribution to surface water
contamination.
Mixing/Loading Instructions
Care must be taken when using this product to prevent back siphoning into wells, spills,
or improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixtures, or rinsates.
Check valves or antisiphoning devices must be used on mixing equipment.
This product may not be mixed/loaded or used within 50 ft. of wells, including
abandoned wells, drainage wells, and sink holes. Operations that involve mixing,
loading, rinsing, or washing of this product into or from pesticide handling or application
equipment or containers within 50 ft. of any well are prohibited, unless conducted on an
impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be
positioned on or moved across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained
to contain any product spills or equipment leaks, container or equipment rinse or wash
water, and rain water that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to
either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The pad
shall be sloped to facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient
capacity to contain at a minimum 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container
or application equipment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient size to
completely exclude precipitation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum
containment capacity of 100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or
application equipment on the pad. Containment capacities as described above shall be
maintained at all times. The above-specified minimum containment capacities do not
apply to vehicles when delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading site.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS
LABEL MAY RESULT IN POOR WEED CONTROL, CROP INJURY, OR ILLEGAL
RESIDUES.
Note: Not for sale, use, or distribution in Nassau County or Suffolk County, New
York.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Camix may be used in the culture of field corn, field corn seed corn, and field corn
silage. Camix may also be used in the culture of yellow popcorn and sweet corn, but
the application must be made prior to crop emergence or severe crop injury may occur.
Camix is a selective herbicide recommended for preemergence use for control of most
annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in field corn, sweet corn, and yellow popcorn.
Camix may also be applied early postemergence for the control of broad leaf weeds in
field corn (preemergence only in sweet corn and yellow popcorn). See Tables 1 and 2
for a list of weeds controlled. This product must be used prior to weed emergence to
control most grass weeds.
Camix is a unique combination of the herbicides S-metolachlor and mesotrione plus the
safener benoxacor. Camix controls weeds by interfering with normal germination and
seedling development.
USE PRECAUTIONS
Read all label directions before using.
1. Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
2. Do not use flood irrigation to apply or incorporate this product.
3. Product must be used in a manner which will prevent back siphoning in wells, spills
or improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixtures or rinsates.
4. Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing
this product to non-target areas. To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind
erosion:
• Avoid treating powdery dry or light sandy 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 or frozen or snow covered soils.
c
-9-
5. Do not apply more than 2.4 qts. of Camix per growing season.
6. Do not apply other solo HPPD inhibitor postemergence herbicides (Callisto®,
___ ._._ .. _. ____ ~1r:r1J2.c~l(~t@L J~L L~lJdi.§@) tQ. 9[9J,ID<t.t.t:Lal.b.gs .be~n tr~at~q with CgJTJix..in .th~ same
season.
7. Do not apply Camix postemergence (emerged corn) to corn that has received an at­
plant application of Counter® insecticide, as severe corn injury may occur.
Temporary corn injury may occur if Camix is applied to emerged corn where
organophosphate insecticides other than Counter were applied at planting.
8. Do not make postemergence (emerged corn) applications of Camix in a tank mix
with any organophosphate or carbamate insecticide, or severe corn injury may
occur.
9. Do not make a postemergence (emerged corn) application of any organophosphate
or carbamate insecticide within 7 days before or 7 days after a Camix application, or
severe corn injury may occur.
10. Do not use Camix on any crop other than field corn (for grain, seed, or silage),
sweet corn (preemergence applications only), or yellow popcorn (preemergence
applications only).
11. Do not use Camix in the culture of white popcorn or ornamental (Indian) corn.
12. Do not contaminate irrigation water used for crops other than corn or water used for
domestic purposes.
13. Avoid drift onto adjacent crops.
14. Do not allow Camix to contaminate feed or food.
15. Camix must not be stored near seeds, fertilizers, or foodstuffs.
16.AII containers of Camix must be kept tightly closed when not in use.
17. Do not use aerial application to apply Camix.
18. Do not apply Camix to yellow popcorn or sweet corn after the crop has emerged, or
crop injury may occur.
Applied according to directions and under normal growing conditions, Camix will not
harm the treated crop. During germination and early stages of growth, extended
periods of unusually cold and wet or hot and dry weather, insect or plant disease attack,
carryover pesticide residues, the use of certain soil applied systemic insecticides,
I 2 ---
~~
-10-
improperly placed fertilizers or soil insecticides, may weaken crop seedlings. Camix
used under these conditions could result in crop injury.
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
Naturally occurring biotypes of certain broadleaf weed species with resistance to
triazines or ALS herbicides are known to exist. However, no known resistance to this
product exists and there are no known instances of cross resistance between this
herbicide and other classes of herbicides. If biotypes of weeds resistant to triazines or
ALS inhibitors are present in the field, this herbicide should control them if they are
listed in Tables 1 and 2.
To reduce the risk of weeds developing resistance to HPPD inhibitors, do not apply solo
postemergence HPPD inhibitor herbicides (Callisto, Impact, Laudis) in the same season
or on the same field where Camix Herbicide has been applied. A good weed resistance
management strategy includes a herbicide program that contains two or more modes of
action. Camix Herbicide contains two herbicide active ingredients and two modes of
action and can be an effective component of a weed resistance management strategy.
INTEGRATED PEST (WEED) MANAGEMENT
Camix may be integrated into an overall weed and pest management strategy.
Practices known to reduce weed development (tillage, crop competition) and herbicide
use (weed scouting, proper application timing, banding and rotations) should be
followed wherever possible. Consult local agricultural and weed authorities for
additional Integrated Pest Management strategies established for your area.
SOIL ORGANIC MATTER
The organic matter of the soil on which the application is to be made must be known or
determined prior to application. The use rate of Camix is based on percent organic
matter.
USE RATES IN ALL TILLAGE SYSTEMS (CONVENTIONAL, REDUCED, AND NO­
TILL)
The soil organic matter content of the field on which Camix is to be applied must be
known. If soil organic matter content is less than 3% use 2.0 qts. of Camix per acre. If
soil organic matter content is 3% or greater use 2.4 qts. of Camix per acre. Do not
apply more than 14 days prior to planting or to field corn higher than 30 inches tall.
(See APPLICATION PROCEDURES section for more information on application
timings and methods.) Camix is not recommended on soils with greater than 10%
organic matter, or poor weed control may result.
REDUCED AND NO-TILL SYSTEMS
Camix may be used in reduced and no-till systems. The highest levels of control will be
(
-11-
obtained when applications are made as close to planting as possible. It is
recommended that a burndown herbicide such as Gramoxone Inteon®, Touchdown®
brands, or Roundup brands be tank mixed with Camix in reduced or no-till systems if
weeds are present at application.
WEEDS CONTROLLED
Thoroughly till soil or make an application of a burndown herbicide to destroy
germinating and emerged weeds. Plant crop into moist soil immediately after tillage.
Camix applied as directed in this label will control or suppress the weeds listed in
Tables 1 and 2. Additional weeds may be controlled with tank mixes. See the Camix
Tank Mix Combinations section for recommended tank mix combinations. Always
consult the tank mix product labels for specific rates and use directions.
If a significant rainfall does not occur within 7 days after application, weed control may
be decreased. If irrigation is available, apply Yz to 1 inch of water. If irrigation is not
available, a uniform shallow cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds emerge.

• Winter wheat, barley, or rye may be planted 4% months after application.
• For all other crops, wait 18 months.
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
ADJUVANTS
Where Camix is applied after the field corn has emerged, a non-ionic surfactant at
0.25% v/v (1 qU100 gals.) may be used. The use of crop oil concentrate (COC) may
result in temporary crop injury. If used, add COC at a rate not to exceed 1 % v/v (1
gal.l100 gals.) or not more than the equivalent of 1 qUA. Do not use nitrogen based
adjuvants (AMS or UAN) or methylated seed oil (MSO) with Camix when applied alone
to emerged field corn, or when Camix is applied as a postemergence tank mixture with
other products, unless directed for a specific tank mix on this label or as part of a
supplemental Camix label. Any of these adjuvants may be used at a preemergence or
preplant timing, i.e. where the corn crop has not yet emerged, to increase burndown
activity on existing weeds. Do not apply Camix to emerged yellow popcorn or sweet
corn, or severe crop injury may occur.
For Camix tank mixtures with Liberty® Herbicide applied to emerged field corn
(LibertyLink® hybrids only), AMS may be added as directed on the Liberty label.
However, AMS should be the only adjuvant added to this tank mixture, or severe crop
injury may occur.
Early Preplant: Camix may be applied up to 14 days prior to planting.
Preemergence Surface: Do not exceed 2.4 qts. of Camix per season. Camix may be
applied to the soil surface as a broadcast or banded application.
Banding Preemergence: Camix may be applied in a 10-15 inch band after corn
planting but prior to corn emergence.
l.
-18-
Band Applications: For band applications, using row and band width measurements
in inches, calculate the amount to be applied per acre as follows:
__ Band width in. _J< _ Bqt~R~La~re. {Qr~.brQa~tc~tsC
inches treatment
Row width in
inches
Postemergence: Camix may be applied after field corn emergence until the corn
plants reach 30 inches in height or up to the 8-leaf stage of corn growth. Applications to
field corn greater than 12 inches tall should be post-directed applications, or crop injury
may occur. Do not apply postemergence to field corn in liquid fertilizer or severe crop
injury may occur. See the "Adjuvants" section above for adjuvant recommendations. Do
not apply Camix to emerged yellow popcorn or sweet corn, or severe crop injury may
occur.
Camix applied early postemergence will control small emerged broad leaf weeds (less
than 3 inches) listed in Table 2. For control of emerged annual grass weeds a grass
herbicide tank mix may be required (see tank mix section of this label). Camix will not
provide control of emerged grass weeds. Tank mixes of AAtrex can provide additional
control of emerged annual grass and broad leaf weeds. If atrazine is used, applications
cannot be made to field corn that is greater than 12 inches tall. Refer to the AAtrex
label for weeds controlled and additional use restrictions.
If Dual II Magnum® or Dual Magnum®, alone or in tank mixtures, have been applied
early preplant, preplant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence, limit the
Camix early post application to not exceed a total of 3.75 Ibs. of S-metolachlor active
per acre or illegal residues may result.
Grazing Restriction: To avoid possible illegal residues, do not graze or feed forage
from treated areas for 45 days following application.
Preharvest Interval (PHI): Field corn may be treated up to 30 inches tall or up to the 8-
leaf stage of corn growth. Do not harvest forage, grain, or stover within 45 days after
application.
Sprinkler Irrigation: Do not apply Camix by sprinkler irrigation. Use a sprinkler
system only to incorporate Camix after application. After Camix has been applied, a
sprinkler irrigation system set to deliver %-1 inch of water may be used to incorporate
the product. Using more than 1 inch of water could result in reduced performance. On
sandy soil low in organic matter, use no more than % inch of water. Do not use flood
irrigation to apply or incorporate Camix.

CULTIVATION
Should weeds develop, a shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing will generally result in
____ ~ jroprm/ed_weed_control. ILCamix-was incorporated ,-cultivate-Iess-than half-the depth-of-­
incorporation.
If cultivation is necessary due to soil crusting, compaction or escaped weeds, adjust
equipment to run shallow and minimize soil movement. This will decrease the
possibility of diluting or moving the herbicide from the weed control zone.
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
Ground Application
Spray nozzles should be uniformly spaced, the same size and type, and should provide
accurate and uniform application. Use spray nozzles that provide medium to coarse
droplet size to avoid drift yet provide good coverage. Ensure that all in-line strainer and
nozzle screens in the sprayer are 50-mesh or coarser. Use a pump that can maintain a
pressure of at least 35-40 psi at the nozzles and provide proper agitation within the tank
to keep the product dispersed. Lower pressures may be used with extended range or
drift reduction nozzles as long as adequate coverage is maintained. Always ensure that
agitation is maintained until spraying is completed, even if stopped for brief periods of
time. If the agitation is stopped for more than 5 minutes, re-suspend the spray solution
by running on full agitation prior to spraying.
Preemergence: Apply in a spray volume of 10-80 gals.lA.
Postemergence: Good weed coverage is essential for optimum weed control. Boom
height for broadcast over-the-top applications should be based on the height of the crop
- at least 15 inches above the crop canopy, but only high enough to give uniform
coverage. Apply in a spray volume of 10-30 gals.lA. When weed foliage is dense, use
a minimum spray volume of 20 gals/A. Flat fan nozzles of 80° or 110° are
recommended for optimum postemergence coverage. Do not use floodjet nozzles or
controlled droplet application equipment for postemergence applications. Nozzles may
be angled forward 45° to enhance penetration of the crop and provide better coverage.
Spray Drift
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF
THE APPLICATOR. The interaction of equipment and weather related factors
determine the potential for drift. The applicator is responsible for considering these
factors when making an application decision.
-20-
Do not apply when weather conditions may cause drift to non-target areas. Drift may
result in injury to adjacent crops and vegetation. To avoid spray drift, DO NOT apply
when, the wind speed is greater than 10 mph or during periods of temperature
inversions.
Information on Droplet Size
The most effective way to reduce spray drift potential is to apply large droplets. The
best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient
coverage and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not
prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental
conditions.
Controlling Droplet Size
Volume
Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles
with higher rated flows produce larger droplets.
Pressure
Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For many
nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are
needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
Number of Nozzles
Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Type
Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle
types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift
nozzles.
Application Height
Applications should be made at the lowest height above the target area that still
provides uniform coverage of the target. Making applications at the lowest yet effective
height reduces exposure of droplets to wind.
Wind
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 10 mph or less. However, many
factors, including droplet size, pressure, and equipment type determine drift potential at
any given wind speed. Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns.
Leave a sufficient buffer downwind of the application to avoid drift to sensitive crops.
This buffer may be untreated corn rows or field border species maintained for this
( (
-21-
purpose. The width of the buffer needed for a specific application will depend on the
wind speed, distance to sensitive crops, and application equipment parameters.
Temperature Inversions
Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential is
high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended
droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable
directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature
inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures 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 morning. 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.
Sensitive Areas
Camix herbicde should 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).
Cleaning Equipment After Application
Special attention must be given to cleaning equipment before spraying a crop other than
field corn. Mix only as much spray solution as needed.
1. Flush tank, hoses, boom, and nozzles with clean water.
2. Prepare a cleaning solution of 1 gal. of household ammonia per 25 gals. of water.
Many commercial spray tank cleaners may be used.
3. Use a pressure washer to clean the inside of the spray tank with this solution. Take
care to wash all parts of the tank, including the inside top surface. If a pressure
washer is not available, completely fill the sprayer with the cleaning solution to
ensure contact of the cleaning solution with all internal surfaces of the tank and
plumbing. Start agitation in the sprayer and thoroughly recirculate the cleaning
solution for at least 15 minutes. All visible deposits must be removed from the
spraying system.
4. Flush hoses, spray lines, and nozzles for at least 1 minute with the cleaning solution.
5. Dispose of rinsate from steps 1-3 in an appropriate manner.
6. Repeat steps 2-5.
(
-22-
7. Remove nozzles, screens, and strainers and clean separately in the ammonia
solution after completing the above procedures.
8. Rinse the complete spraying system with clean water.
MIXING PROCEDURES
CARRIER
Liquids: Either water or liquid fertilizers excluding suspension fertilizers may be used
as carriers for preemergence applications. If fluid fertilizers are used, a compatibility
test must be done. See Compatibility Test section for compatibility testing. Even if
Camix is physically compatible with a fluid fertilizer, constant agitation is necessary to
maintain a uniform mixture during application. Use only clean water as the carrier when
applying Camix after field corn emergence.
ADDING CAMIX TO THE SPRAY TANK
The spray tank must be clean, thoroughly rinsed and decontaminated before adding
either Camix alone or with tank mix partners. If water is used as the carrier, use clean
water.
Used Alone: When Camix is used alone, add the recommended amount of Camix to
the spray tank when the tank is half full of the carrier, then add the rest of the water or
fluid fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during mixing and application to maintain a
uniform mixture.
Tank Mixed: Refer to the sections on this label for recommended tank mixes. Always
refer to labels of the tank mix partners for mixing directions and precautions. Do not
exceed label dosage rates, nor combined maximum seasonal doses for mesotrione or
S-metolachlor. This product cannot be mixed with any product bearing a label
prohibition against such mixing. If a tank mixture is used, a compatibility test must be
done. See Compatibility Test section for details on the procedure for such a test.
If the tank mix partner is compatible, fill the tank half full of the carrier. Start and
continue agitation throughout mixing and application. All return lines to the spray tank
must discharge below the liquid level. Prepare the components and add in the following
order:
1. If a wettable powder or dry flowable formulation is used, make a slurry with water
and add it slowly through the screen into the tank. Agitate during the procedure.
2. If a f10wable formulation is used, add slowly through screen into the tank. Mixing
and compatibility may be improved when a dry flowable is diluted with water before
adding to the tank.
3. Add Camix.
(
-23-
4. Add any other liquid tank mix products next with emulsifiable concentrates last.
5. Add an adjuvant last, if needed.
6. Complete filling the sprayer tank and continue agitation.
7. Apply as soon as possible after spray mixture is prepared. Do not leave mixture in
____ spray.tank overnightwithoutagitationor.unattended ...
COMPATIBILITY TEST
A compatibility test is recommended before tank mixing to ensure compatibility of Camix
with other pesticides. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gals'/A. For
other spray volumes, make appropriate changes in the ingredients.
Note: Nitrogen solutions or complete liquid fertilizers, excluding suspension 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 mixtures of fertilizer and
pesticides.
Test Procedure
1. Add 1.0 pt. of carrier (fertilizer or water) to each of two 1 qt. jars with tight lids.
Note: 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.
2. 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.l100
gals. spray). Shake or stir gently to mix.
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of pesticide(s) in their relative
proportions based on recommended 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.
4. 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.
( (

5. After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in
accordance with the Storage and Disposal section in this label.
______ CROP_USE DIRECIIONS - CORN
CAMIX TANK MIX COMBINATIONS
Use of Spray Adjuvants With Tank Mixtures
When Camix is used as a preemergence herbicide and before weeds have emerged,
spray adjuvants have little or no influence on performance. However, in burndown
situations where the weeds have emerged and the corn has not, an adjuvant may be
used with Camix applied alone or when applied in tank mixture with a burndown
herbicide as allowed on the individual product labels. Use only those adjuvants
approved for agricultural crop use. See the "Adjuvants" section under "Application
Procedures" for further instructions.
Burndown Combination for Reduced Tillage Situations
In reduced or no-till corn and before the crop has emerged, Camix tank mixtures with
Gramoxone Inteon, Touchdown brands, or Roundup brands will burndown existing
weeds. Gramoxone Inteon should be applied to emerged weeds when they are small
with best results achieved when weeds are 1-6 inches in height. Consult the
Gramoxone Inteon, Touchdown brand, or Roundup brand product label for further
information on weeds controlled.
Preemergence Tank Mix Combinations (Applied Before the Crop has Emerged)
Tank mix partners listed in Table 3 may be used in conventional, reduced, or no-till
systems and be applied by the same methods and at the same timings as Camix unless
otherwise specified in the tank mix product label. Follow all tank mix product labels for
use rates and restrictions. Perform a compatibility test. Tank mixtures with 2,4-0 may
be used, but only with care with regard to ensuring compatibility before mixing a load.
2,4~0 products vary greatly with regard to compatibility and should be checked each
time a water or carrier source, water or carrier temperature, product source, or tank·
mixture recipe is changed.

Camix Programs with Glyphosate for Glyphosate Tolerant Corn
Camix may be applied early postemergence at a rate down to 1.6 qts.lA in tank mixture
with a solo glyphosate product (e.g. Touchdown or Roundup brands) that is registered
for use over-the-top in glyphosate tolerant field corn (e.g. Roundup Ready or Agrisure™
GT Corn). To minimize weed competition with the crop, target the application of this
mixture to weeds in the 1 to 2 inch range. If the glyphosate product has a built-in
adjuvant system (Le. the product label does not ask for additional adjuvant), only spray­
grade ammonium sulfate (AMS) at 8.5 Ibs.l100 gal. should be added to this mixture. If
the glyphosate product label calls for an adjuvant in addition to AMS, add a non-ionic
surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v and AMS to this spray mixture. Do not add urea
ammonium nitrate (UAN), crop oil concentrate (C~C), or methylated seed oil (MSO)
type adjuvants to these mixtures, or crop injury may occur. Follow all directions for use
and restrictions on the glyphosate product label.
Alternatively, Camix may be applied preemergence at a rate down to 1.6 qts.lA as part
of a two-pass weed control system when followed by a postemergence application of a
glyphosate based product in glyphosate tolerant corn (e.g. Roundup Ready or Agrisure
GT Corn). When used in this way, Camix will provide reduced competition of the weeds
listed in Table 1 for a period of 30 or more days, thus improving the timing flexibility and
(

effectiveness of the glyphosate based product application. Follow all directions for use
and restrictions on the glyphosate product label.
Camix Programs with Liberty for LibertyLink Corn
Camix may be applied early postemergence at a rate down to 1.6 qts.lA in tank mixture
with Liberty and applied over-the-top in field corn designated as LibertyLink. To
minimize weed competition with the crop, target the application of this mixture to weeds
in the 1 to 2 inch range. Ammonium sulfate (AMS) may be added as a spray adjuvant
as directed on the Liberty label. However, AMS should be the only adjuvant added to
this tank mixture. Do not add urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), crop oil concentrate
(COC), non-ionic surfactants (NIS), or methylated seed oil (MSO) type adjuvants to
these mixtures, or crop injury may occur. Follow all directions for use and restrictions
on the Liberty product label.
Alternatively, Camix may be applied preemergence at a rate down to 1.6 qts.lA as part
of a two-pass weed control system when followed by a postemergence application of
Liberty in field corn designated as LibertyLink. When used in this way, Camix will
provide reduced competition of the weeds listed in Table 1 for a period of 30 or more
days, thus improving the timing flexibility and effectiveness of the Liberty application.
Follow all directions for use and restrictions on the Liberty product label.

Ground Water Advisory
__________ T'--'h~ ~_c:;tl'{~_ ingredient, _ S-m~!oJac:h!9r,_ h~?_Jo~_ poJenti9LtQJ~_a<;:hJl}ro_ygb ~9il i1]J09rQ1U1~L _
water under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this product in
areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may
result in ground water contamination.
Surface Water Advisory
The active ingredients in this product have the potential to contaminate surface water
through ground spray drift. Under some conditions, the active ingredients may also
have a high potential for runoff into surface water (primarily via dissolution in runoff
water) for several months post-application. These include poorly drained or wet soils
with readily visible slopes toward adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas,
areas overlaying extremely shallow ground water, areas with in-field canals or ditches
that drain to surface water, areas not separated from adjacent surface waters with
vegetated filter strips, and areas overlaying tile drainage systems that drain to surface
water.
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 for contamination of water from runoff. Runoff of this product will be reduced
by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours. Sound
erosion control practices will reduce this product's contribution to surface water
contamination.
Mixing/Loading Instructions
Care must be taken when using this product to prevent back siphoning into wells, spills,
or improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixtures, or rinsates.
Check valves or antisiphoning devices must be used on mixing equipment.
This product may not be mixed/loaded or used within 50 ft. of wells, including
abandoned wells, drainage wells, and sink holes. Operations that involve mixing,
loading, rinsing, or washing of this product into or from pesticide handling or application
equipment or containers within 50 ft. of any well are prohibited, unless conducted on an
impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be
positioned on or moved across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained
to contain any product spills or equipment leaks, container or equipment rinse or wash
water, and rain water that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to
either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The pad
shall be sloped to facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient
capacity to contain at a minimum 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container
