PRODUCT INFORMATION
All applications must be made according to the use directions that follow.
Palisade 2EC is a plant growth regulator (PGR) which acts by inhibiting the production
Palisade 2EC
Page 6
of gibberellic acid. It shortens the internodes on grasses grown for seed and cereals
which results in a reduction in lodging. It also acts as a PGR in sugarcane by
shortening the internodes which improves seed piece production and when used prior to
harvest, increases and/or maintains the sugar content for an extended harvest window.
Palisade 2EC is rapidly absorbed by the foliage. The PGR effects do not occur through
soil uptake.
USE INSTRUCTIONS
Application: Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good activity. Make up no
more spray solution than is needed for application. Avoid spray overlap, as crop injury
may occur.
Adjuvants:When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, the use of an adjuvant
that meets the standards of the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association
(CPDA) adjuvant certification program is recommended.
Efficacy:The activity and performance of Palisade 2EC is primarily affected by: (1)
environmental conditions, (2) crop management and cultural practices that affect crop
growth and vigor, (3) fertility level, (4) moisture availability, (5) plant vigor, and (6) crop
growth stage. Palisade 2EC acts by inhibiting the production of gibberellic acid.
Plant-back Interval (PBI):
Crop Days to Plantback After the Last
Application of Palisade 2EC
Wheat
Barley
Triticale
Oats
Rye
Rice
Grasses Grown for Seed
Sugarcane
0 days
All Other Food or Feed Crops 30 days
Crop Tolerance:Plant tolerance has been found acceptable for all crops on the label,
however, not all possible tank mix combinations have been tested under all conditions
nor have all varieties been tested under all conditions. When possible, it is
recommended to test the combinations on a small portion of the crop to ensure a
phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application.
Spray Drift Management: Spray equipment and weather affect spray drift. Consider
Palisade 2EC
Page 7
all factors when making application decisions. Where states or tribes have more
stringent regulations, they must be observed. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE
APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE
GROWER. To reduce the potential for drift, the application equipment must be set to
apply medium to coarse droplets (i.e., ASABE Standard 572) with corresponding spray
pressure. Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. With
most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Follow the nozzle
manufacturers directions on pressure, orientation, spray volume, etc., in order to
minimize drift and optimize coverage and control.
Wind:
Avoid making applications when spray particles may be carried by air currents to non-
target areas. Do not spray if wind is gusty, below 2 mph, or in excess of 10 mph and
moving in the direction of adjacent sensitive areas. Local terrain may influence wind
patterns; the applicator must be familiar with local conditions and understand how they
may impact spray drift.
Sensitive Areas:
Sensitive areas to this product are defined as bodies of water (ponds, lakes, rivers,
streams, and wetlands), known habitats of threatened or endangered species and non-
labeled agricultural crop areas. Applicators must take all precautions necessary to keep
spray drift from reaching sensitive areas.
Temperature Inversion:
A surface temperature inversion (i.e., increasing temperature with increasing altitude)
greatly increases the potential for drift. Presence of ground fog is a good indicator of a
surface temperature inversion. Do not apply during temperature inversions. Always
make applications when there is some air movement to determine the direction and
distance of possible spray drift.
Equipment:
All aerial and ground equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using
appropriate carriers or surrogates.
Additional requirements for aerial applications:
The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade
diameter.
Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety.
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind.
The applicator must compensate for this by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
Additional requirements for ground applications:
Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.
Palisade 2EC

MIXING AND APPLICATION METHODS
Spray Equipment
Nozzles
Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application.
Nozzles should be the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom.
Calibrate sprayer before use.
It is suggested that screens be used to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from
clogging.
Screens placed on suction side of pump should be 16-mesh or coarser.
Do not place a screen in the recirculation line.
Use 50-mesh or coarser screens between the pump and boom, and where required,
at the nozzles.
Check nozzle manufacturers recommendations.
Pump
Use a pump with capacity to:
(1) maintain 35-40 psi at nozzles
(2) provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension - this requires
recirculation of 10% of tank volume per minute.
Use a jet agitator or liquid sparge tube for agitation.
Do not use air sparge.
For more information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer
manufacturers and state recommendations. For specific local directions and spray
schedules, consult the current state agricultural recommendations.
Mixing Instructions
Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation.
Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product.
Agitate the spray solution before and during application.
Rinse spray tank thoroughly with clean water after each days use and dispose of
pesticide rinsate by application to an already treated area.
Do not allow spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods of time.
Palisade 2EC Alone (no tank mix):
Add ½-of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.
With the agitator running, add the Palisade 2EC to the tank.
Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.
Mix in enough water (10-20 gal/A) to thoroughly and uniformly cover crop.
Begin application of the spray solution after the Palisade 2EC has completely
dispersed into the mix water.
Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed.
Palisade 2EC
Page 9
Palisade 2EC + Tank Mixtures:
Palisade 2EC is compatible with all tank-mix partners listed on this label.
To determine the physical compatibility of Palisade 2EC with other products, use a
jar test. Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to 1 quart
of water. Add wettable powders and water dispersible granular products first, then
liquid flowables, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let
stand for at least 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be remixed
readily, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the
same procedure for adding required ingredients to the spray tank.
Observe all directions for use, precautions, and limitations which appear on tank mix
partner label.
Mixing in the Spray Tank
Add ½-of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.
With the agitator running, add the tank mix partner(s) into the tank in the same order
as described above.
Allow the material to completely dissolve and disperse into the mix water. Continue
agitation while adding the remainder of the water and the Palisade 2EC to the spray
tank.
Allow the Palisade 2EC to completely disperse.
Spray the mixture with the agitator running.
Palisade 2EC + Tilt® Fungicide (propiconazole; EPA Reg. No. 100-617) or Quilt®
Fungicide (azoxystrobin + propiconazole; EPA Reg. No. 100-1178)
Add 1/22/3of the required amount of water to the spray tank.
While agitating, add Palisade 2EC followed by Tilt Fungicide or Quilt Fungicide.
Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.
Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Palisade 2EC may be applied with all types of spray equipment commonly used for
making ground and aerial applications. Proper adjustments and calibration of spraying
equipment to give good coverage is essential for good growth regulator effects.
Ground Application:
Apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre, unless specified otherwise.
Do not apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
Thorough coverage is necessary for good growth regulator effects.
Aerial Application:
Thorough coverage is necessary to provide a good, uniform effect.
Apply in a minimum of 2 gallons of diluent per acre.
Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or
Palisade 2EC
Page 10
when excessive spray drift may occur.
Do not apply directly to humans or animals.
Do not apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
Application Through Irrigation Systems (Chemigation)
Apply this product only through center pivot, [solid set], [hand move], [or moving
wheel irrigation systems]. 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 non-uniform distribution of treated water.
Apply in 0.1 - 0.25 inches/A of water. Excessive water may reduce efficacy.
If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service
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.
Note:Do not inject Palisade 2EC at full strength or deterioration of valves and seals
may occur. Use a dilution ratio of at least 10 parts water to 1 part Palisade 2EC.
Palisade 2EC is corrosive to many seal materials. Leather seals are best. EPDM or
silicone rubber seals can be used, but should be replaced once a year. Do not use
Viton, Buna-N, Neoprene, or PVC seals.
Operating Instructions
1. 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.
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-
closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
3. 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.
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off
the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
5. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which
Palisade 2EC
Page 11
will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point
where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection
pump (e.g., diaphragm pump), effectively designed and constructed of materials
that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system
interlock.
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for
treatment.
Center Pivot Irrigation Equipment
Notes:(1) Use only with drive systems which provide uniform water distribution. (2) Do
not use end guns when chemigating Palisade 2EC through center pivot systems
because of non-uniform application.
Determine the size of the area to be treated.
Determine the time required to apply -½ inch of water over the area to be treated
when the system and injection equipment are operated at normal pressures as
recommended by the equipment manufacturer. When applying Palisade 2EC
through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while
maintaining uniform distribution. Run the system at 80-95% of the manufacturers
rated capacity.
Using water, determine the injection pump output when operated at normal line
pressure.
Determine the amount of Palisade 2EC required to treat the area covered by the
irrigation system.
Add the required amount of Palisade 2EC and sufficient water to meet the injection
time requirements to the solution tank.
Make sure the system is fully charged with water before starting injection of the
Palisade 2EC solution. Time the injection to last at least as long as it takes to bring
the system to full pressure.
Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period.
Continue to operate the system until the Palisade 2EC solution has cleared the
sprinkler head.
Solid Set, Hand Move, and Moving Wheel Irrigation Equipment
Notes:(1) Use only with drive systems which provide uniform water distribution. (2) Do
not use end guns when chemigating Palisade 2EC through center pivot systems
because of non-uniform application.
Determine the acreage covered by the sprinklers.

20- to 30-minute interval. When applying Palisade 2EC through irrigation equipment
Palisade 2EC
Page 12
use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform distribution.
Determine the amount of Palisade 2EC required to treat the area covered by the
irrigation system.
Add the required amount of Palisade 2EC into the same quantity of water used to
calibrate the injection period.
Operate the system at the same pressure and time interval established during the
calibration.
Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. Continue to operate the
system until the Palisade 2EC solution has cleared the last sprinkler head.
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS
1. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped
water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections
or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out
of the year.
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a
functional, reduced-pressure zone, back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional
equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide
introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system
should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There
shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between the flow outlet end of the fill
pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside
diameter of the fill pipe.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-
closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
4. The pesticide injection pipeline must 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.
5. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off
the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases
where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point
where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection
pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials
that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system
interlock.
