GENERAL INFORMATION 
Bicep MAGNUM TR is a selective, soil-applied herbicide for the control of certain annual grasses and 
broadleaf weeds in field corn. This product may be applied before planting, preemergence, or delayed 
preemergence through the "spike~ stage,of corn growth, but before weeds emerge. Target weeds which 
have emerged at the time of application may not be controlled 
Following many years of continued use of atrazine (one ingredient in Bicep MAGNUM TR) and products 
chemically related to atrazine, biotypes of some weeds listed on this label which are normally controlled by 
the atrazine component have been selected which are resistant to atrazine and chemically related herb;, ' , 
cides. Bicep MAGNUM TR contains flumetsulam, primarily for control of triazine-resistant biotypes of lambs- ' , 
quarters and pigweed, as well as for improved control of velvetleaf. Certain weeds have also been identified' 
that are resistant to flumetsulam and other sulfonamides. Certain other weed biotypes have been identifiea > • ' ) ; 
as being resistant to both sulfonamides (flumetsulam) and triazines (atrazine). Where 'tlip,i],I<f1own or 
suspected, and weeds controlled by this product are expected to be present along with rE-!;istant ~iotypes, 
we recommend the use of Bicep MAGNUM TR in combination or in sequence with registen?d herb:'" J , J •

Bicep MAGNUM'· TR 
Bicep MAGNUM TR may be tank mixed with other herbicides specified on this label for weed control in 
conventional, minimum-till. and no-till corn. 
Note: Tank mixtures are permitted only in those states where the tank mix partner is registered 
Bicep MAGNUM TR alone or in tank mixture with herbicides specified on this label may be applied up to 
2 weeks early preplant, preplant incorporated, preplant surface, or preemergence to field corn in water or 
fluid fertilizer. Do not use fertilizer as the carrier when applying Bicep MAGNUM TR to field corn in the 
spike stage or severe injury may result. For burndown of existing vegetation, Bicep MAGNUM TR may 
be applied in tank mix combination with Gramoxone® Extra, Landmaster® BW, Roundup®, or Touchdown® 
and other herbicides specified on this label prior to field corn emergence. 
Precautions and Restrictions for Bicep MAGNUM TR 
• For optimum weed control, do not apply more than 2 weeks before planting 
• Do not use when Counter® or Thimet® insecticides are to be applied to field corn, due to risk at severe 
crop injury. (Unless a modified corn hybrid is used. See the Use with Genetically Modified Field Corn 
Varieties section.) 
• Approved soil insecticides should be applied in a band to avoid potential injury_ 
• Plant field corn at least 1'/2 inches deep. 
• Corn inbred lines grown for hybrid seed production may be injured by Bicep MAGNUM TA. Therefore, 
inbred lines should be thoroughly tested for crop tolerance before treating large acreage. 
• Do not apply to sweet corn or popcorn. 
• Do not apply to any soil with a pH greater than 7.8 as unacceptable crop injury may result. 
• Use the low end of the application rate range on sites where soils contain gravel or have a sand or loamy 
sand texture throughout the corn root zone in the soil profile. 
• Do not use on peat or muck soils. 
• Do not apply to soils that contain greater than 5% organic matter (0 M.) with a pH below 5.9 or reduced 
weed control may result. 
• After use, thoroughly wash the tank, lines, screens, and nozzles using a commercial tank cleaner Flush 
the system two times with clean water. 
Precaution: Injury may occur following the use of Bicep MAGNUM TR under abnormally high soil moisture 
conditions during early development of field corn. 
Corn growing in calcareous soils or on soils with historically high salt content (soil test results for salinity indi­
cating electrical conductivity greater than 1.0 mmho/cm) may exhibit chlorosis and/or stunting reSUlting from 
reduced availability of iron or other micronutrients essential for normal crop vigor and growth. The pesence 
of soil-active herbicides, such as Bicep MAGNUM TR, may cause additional stress under these conditions 
resulting in increased leaf chlorosis and/or crop stunting. ThiS added stress may retard crop recovery, 
especially under conditions of limited rainfall. In fields which contain calcareous or high salt content soils 
and/or have a history of causing iron chlorosis in soybeans, growers should plant "IRn or "IMR" deSignated 
corn varieties, commonly referred to as ~imidazolinone resistant"" corn hybrids. On these type soils, the 
likelihood of crop injury can also be reduced by applying Bicep MAGNUM TR at the lower end of the recom­
mended rate range for the soil type and/or by applying 10-14 days belore planting. 
Use of Bicep MAGNUM TR on soils with less than 1% O.M. may result in crop injury. Apply to f'elds that 
contain soils with less than 1% O.M. only if the risk of crop injurv is acceptable 
Use with Genetically Modified Field Corn Varieties: If an '-IR" Or "'IMR" deSignated hybrid (c:::rnmonly 
referred to as "imidazolinone resistant") is planted, any organophosphate insecticide, including Ccunter or 
Thimet. can be applied according to label directions without increaSing the likelihood of injury frC'T1 Bicep 
MAGNUM TR. The adverse interaction between Counter or Thi!llct insecticides and Bicep MAG\JUM TR 
does not occur in field corn hybrids identified as ~IR~ or '"IMR. TillS adverse Interaction does occur in 
imidazolinone tolerant "IT' or "pr hybrids which are considered as' st<J.ndard·· hybrids regarding t~,IS effect. 
"IR" or "IMR" hybrids may also be planted to reduce the potential for Inlury from Bicep MAGNUM TR on soils 
with less than 1 % organic matter or pH greater than 7_8. 
Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of chemlgalion system 
Preharvest Interval: Do not apply Bicep MAGNUM TR within b d~1ys of harvest 
Maximum Application Rate: Do not exceed a total application r<J.te 01.2.2 qts. per acre of Bicep !.'AGNUM 
TR in a single crop year. 00 not exceed 0.07 lb. per year cuc~ul(1tlve application of the active "2redient 
flumetsulam if using Bicep MAGNUM TR in sequential or tarl!-- nllX applications With other proclocts con­
taining flumetsulam 
Do not apply Bicep MAGNUM TR by aircraft. Apply using ground equipment only. 
Avoid aU direct and indirect contact with nontarget plants. 00 not <lpply near desirable ",egete: on, and 
allow adequate distance between target area and desirable plants 
Sensitive Areas: Bicep MAGNUM TR should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjaCent sensi­
tive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endall!:,E..f-:~ species, 
nontarget crops) is minimal (e.g .. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas). < 
To avoid spray drift, do not apply under windy conditions_ AVOid spray overlap. as crop injury mey result 
Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion bi.'cause of potential for drift

Bicep MAGNUM'· TR 
Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing this product to nontarget 
areas. 
To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion: 
1. Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are favorable for wind erosion. Under these 
conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by rainfall or irrigation. 
2. Do not apply to impervious substrates, such as paved Of highly compacted surfaces. 
3. Do not use tailwater from the first flood Of furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat nontarget crops, unless 
at least 1/2 inch of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation. 
Where reference is made to weeds partially ~rolled, partial control can either mean erratic control from 
good to poor or consistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial 
weed control. 
Dry weather following preemergence application of Bicep MAGNUM TR may reduce effectiveness. Cultivate 
if weeds develop in conventional tillage field corn. 
Observe all precautions and limitations on the label of each product used in tank mixtures or applied 
sequentially with Bicep MAGNUM TR. 
Thoroughly clean sprayer or other application device before using. Dispose of deaning solution in a respon­
sible manner. Do not use a sprayer or applicator contaminated with other materials, or crop damage or 
sprayer clogging of the application device may occur. 
Mixing Instructions 
Thoroughly recirculate containers and bulk tanks before using. Bicep MAGNUM TR is a liquid that may 
be mixed with water Or fluid fertilizer and applied as a spray. Bicep MAGNUM TR may also be sprayed onto 
dry bulk granular fertilizer and applied with the granular fertilizer. 
Dry Bulk Granular Fertilizers 
Many dry bulk granular fertilizers may be impregnated or coated with Bicep MAGNUM TR and used to 
control weeds in field corn. 
When applying Bicep MAGNUM TR with dry bulk granular fertilizers. follow all directions for use and 
precautions on the Bicep MAGNUM TR label regarding target crops rates per acre, soil texture, application 
methods, and rotational crops 
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk granular fertilizer blending, registration,labeling, and appli­
cation are the responsibility of the individual and/or company selling the herbicide/fertilizer mixture. 
Prepare the herbicide/fertilizer mixture by using a dosed drum, belt. ribbon, or other commonly used dry 
bulk fertilizer blender. Nozzles used to spray Bicep MAGNUM TR onto the fertilizer must be placed to 
provide uniform spray coverage. Care should t-e taken to aim the spray onto the fertilizer only, avoiding the 
walls of the blender 
If the J:ierbicide/fertilizer mixture is too wet, add a highly absorptive material, such as Agsorb® FG or 
Celatom MP-79~, or similar granular clay or diatomaceous earth materials, to obtain a dry, free-flowing 
mixture. Absorptive materials should be added only after the herbicide has been thoroughly blended into the 
fertilizer mixture. Best application results will be obtained by using a granule of 6/30 particle size or of a size 
Similar to that of the fertilizer material being used. Generally, less than 2% by weight of absorptive material 
will be needed. Avoid using more than 5% absorptive material by weight 
Calculate the amount of Bicep MAGNUM TR to be used by the follOWing 
2,000 qts. of Bicep MAGNUM TR qts. of Bicep MAGNUM TR x Ibs. of fertilizer per acre per acre per ton of fertilizer 
Pneumatic (Compressed Air) Application: High humidity, hlg~, urea concentrations, low fertilizer use 
rates. and/or dusly fertilizer or other problems may cause fertilizer mixtures to build up or plug the 
distributor head, air tubes, or nozzle deflector plates. To minimize bUildup. premix Bicep MAGNUM TR 
with Exxon AromatiC 200 at a rate of 2.0-2.5 pts./ga1. of Bicep r,,1AGNUM TR. Aromatic 200 is a non· 
combustible/nonflammable petroleum product. Aromatic 200 rn<'ly be used in either a fertilizer blender or 
through direct injection systems. Drying agents should not be useD when using Aromatic 200. 
Notes: (1) Mixtures of Bicep MAGNUM TR and Aromatic 200 must t·e used on dry fertilizer only. Poor results 
or crop injury may result if these mixtures are used in water or lia~ld fertilizer solutions for spraying appli· 
cations. (2) When impregnating Bicep MAGNUM TR in a blender before application. a drier mixture can, 
be at1ained by substituting a drying agent for Aromatic 200. The use of Agsorb FG or another drying agent 
of 6/30 particle size is recommended. (3) Drying agents arc not recommended for use with On-The-Go 
impregnation equipment. 
Precautions: To avoid potential for explosion, (1) Do not impregr:ate Bicep MAGNUM TR (111 Ammonium 
nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodium nitrate, either alone or in ~Iends with other fertiliz,Jrs. ;2) 00 not 
combine Bicep MAGNUM TR with a single superphosphate (0-20-0) or treble superphosphate (0·46-0) 
(3) 00 not use Bicep MAGNUM TR on straight limestone, since 8tlSOrptIOn will not be achi&V8d. rertilizer 
blends containing limestone can be impregnated. 
Application: Apply 200-700 Ibs. of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture per acre. For best results: ':3.rpFy !he mix­
tUre uniformly to the soil with properly calibrated equipment immec.'ately after blending. Unii\1l r'll<a.:>plication 
of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is essential in order to prevent possible crop injury or injury to subsequent 
rotational crops. Nonuniform application may also result in unsatisf2ctory weed control. In areas where con~ , 
ventional tillage is practiced, a shallow incorporation of the mixtur(' mto the soil is recommended to obtai~ , 
satisfactory weed control. In areas where soil incorporation IS not planned, i.e., reduced tillage situations Of • , • , • 
in some conventional till situations, make applications approxima:ely 14 days before planting using rates 
from Table 1 to allow moisture to move the herbicide/fertilizer mixture into the soil

Bicep MAGNUM'· TR 
Precautions: (1) To help avoid rotational crop injury, make applications as early as possible, since Bicep 
MAGNUM TR impregnated onto dry bulk granular fertilizers can be expected to last longer in the soil than 
when Bicep MAGNUM TR is applied as a spray in water or fluid fertilizer. (2) To avoid potential crop injury, 
do ret use the herbicide/fertilizer mixture on crops where planting beds are to be formed. 
Application in Water or Fluid Fertilizers 
Bicep MAGNUM TR Alone: Fill the spray tank 1/2_3/4 full with water or fluid fertilizer, add the proper amount 
of B cep MAGNUM TR, then add the rest of the water or fluid fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during 
miXing and application to maintain a uniform suspension. 
Tank Mixtures: With sufficient agitation, fill the spray tank '/2_3/4 full with water or fluid fertilizer and add the 
pro:er amount of Bicep MAGNUM TR. Once uniformly dispersed, add Banvel'$. AAtrex§, or Princep®; next 
adc Dual®, OuallFFfl, Dual MAGNUM®, or Dual II MAGNUM®; then add Gramoxone Extra, Landmaster BW, 
ROL 1dup, 2,4-0, or Touchdown, depending on the tank mix combination desired: and finally, add the rest of 
the ,'rater or fluid fertilizer. When Bladex® or Extrazine® II is used in the tank mixture. add it before Bicep 
MAGNUM TR, unless otherwise specified. (See Note section under Bicep MAGNUM TR Combinations­
Field Corn tor further Bladex and Extrazine II mixing instructions 1 Provide sufficient agitation during 
mix ~g and application to maintain a uniform suspension. 
Compatibility Test: Check the compatibility of Bicep MAGNUM TR and tank mixtures in fluid fertilizer by 
mix:lg proportionate quantities in a small container, as described belOW, before mixing in the spray tank 
Nit,:gen solutions or complete fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of the water in the spray. Since liquid 
fer: 'zers can vary, even within the same analysis, always check compatibility each time before reuse. 
Be especially careful when using complete suspension or fluid fertilizers, as serious compatibility problems 
are ~ore apt to occur. Commercial application equipment may improve compatibility in some instances_ The 
fon:wing test assumes a spray volume of 25 galsJA. For other spray volumes make appropriate changes 
in tie ingredients. Check compatibility using this procedure: 
1 ":"dd 1.0 pt. of fertilizer to each of 2 one-ql. iar~_.with tight lids 
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® ('/4 tsp. is equivalent to 2.0 pts./100 gals, spray). Shake or stir gently to mix. 
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more ;han one herbicide is used, add them 
separately with dry herbicides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After each addi­
::on, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix. The appropriate amount of herbicides for this test follows 
Dry herbicides: For each pound to be applied per acre, add 1,4 teaspoons to each jar. 
Liquid herbicides: For each pint to be applied per acre, add 0 5 teaspoon or 2.5 milliliters to each jar. 
4 After adding all ingredients. put lids on and tighten, and invert each iar 10 times to mix. Let the snixtures 
stand 15 minutes and then look for separation,large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the jar. 
,:;r other signs of incompatibility. Determine if the compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by 
:omparing the 2 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 improv· 
ing compatibility: (A) slurry the dry herbicide{s) in water before addition, or (B) add 1/2 of the compati­
bility agent to the fertilizer and the other '/2 to the emulsifiable concentrate or flowable herbicide before 
addition to the mixture. If sti~~ incompatible, do not use the mixture 
5 After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance with the directions 
in the Storage and Disposal section at the end of this label 
Soil Texture Information

*Control of thEse weeds can be erratic especially under dry weather conditions. Control escaped weeds 
with cultiva:~:)n or application of an appropriate EPA·registered postemergence herbicide. On fine­
textured soils only partial control can be expected. 
**When refere"_ce is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean erratic control from 
good to pac' or consistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial 
weed contre 
***Control may be Improved by following these suggested procedures 
1. Thoroughly till moist soil to destroy germinating and emerged weeds. If Bicep MAGNUM TR is to be 
applied preplant incorporated, this tillage may be uSed to incorporate Bicep MAGNUM TR if uniform 
2-inch incorporation is achieved, 
2. Plant crop in:o moist soil immediately after tillage. If Bicep MAGNUM TR is to be used preemergence, 
apply at plar,ting or immediately after planting. 
3. If available, sprinkler irrigate within 2 days after application. Apply '/2·1 inch of water. Use lower water 
volume ('/2 inch) on coarse-textured soils and higher volume (1 inch) on fine·textured soils 
4. If Irrigation IS not pOSSible and rain dOes not occur within 2 days after application, weed control may be 
decreased, Under these conditions. a uniform, shallow cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds 
emerge. 
5. For large·seeded broadleaf species. or those which are listed as partially controlled, an application of 
an approved postemergence herbicide should be made, if needed, following an application of Bicep 
MAGNUM TR. 
Atrazine Rate Restrictions 
Where there are state/local requirements-regarding atrazine use (including lower maximum rates and/or 
higher setbacks) which are different from the label, the more restrictive/protective requirements must be 
followed. Certain states may have established rate limitations within specific geographical areas. Consult 
your state lead pesticide control agency for additional information. It is a violation of this label to deviate frol1l' 
state use regulations 
The rate of atrazine in the highest use rate of Bicep MAGNUM TR is 1.1 Ibs. a. i. per acre.

FOR ALL SOIL APPLICATIONS PRIOR TO CROP EMERGENCE 
• On Highly Erodible Land (as defined by SCS) 
If conservation tillage is practiced, leaving at least 30% of the soil covered with plant residues at plant­
ing, apply a maximum of 2 Ibs. of atrazine/A as a broadcast spray 
If soil coverage with plant residue is less than 30% at planting, a maximum of 1.6 Ibs. of alrazine/A 
may be applied 
• On Land Not Highly Erodible 
Apply a maximum of 2 lbs. of atrazine/A as a broadcast spray. 
FOR POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATION TO FIELD CORN 
If no atrazine was applied prior to field corn emergence, a maximum of 2 Ibs. a.i./A may be applied 
postemergence. If a postemergence treatment is required following an earlier herbicide application con­
taining atrazine, the total atrazine applied may not exceed 2.5 Ibs a i per acre per calendar year. 
Application Timings 
Early Preplant: Apply Bicep MAGNUM TR as a single broadcast application no earlier than 2 weeks before 
planting. Refer to Table 1 for rates according to soil texture. For all soils, Bicep MAGNUM TR must be tank 
mixed with a contact herbicide (e.g., Gramoxone Extra, Touchdown. or Roundup) if weeds are present at the 
time of treatment. If large-seeded broadleaf weeds are present in the field, an application of an appropriate 
postemergence herbicide may be necessary after corn emergence. Observe the directions for use, 
precautions, and restrictions of all herbicides used in tank mixtures or as sequentials to Bicep MAGNUM 
TR. If the postemergence product contains atrazine, do not exceed the maximum use rates for that soil or 
location.

Preplant Surface: Just before planting. apply uniformly to the SOil surlace. 
Preplant Incorporated: Just before planting, apply to the soil and incorporate into the top 2 inches of the soil, 
using a finishing disk, finishing harrow, rolling cultivator, or similar implement capable of providing uniform 
2-inch incorporation. Use the preplant incorporated method if furrow irrigation is used or when a period of dry 
weather after application is expected. If crop is to be planted on beds, apply and incorporate after bed 
formation 
Preemergence: Apply to the soil surface at planting (behind the planter) or after planting. but before weeds 
or crop emerge. 
Delayed Preemergence: If adverse environmental conditions (abnormally wet or dry) prevented the normal 
preemergence application, a delayed preemergence application may be applied after planting through the 
corn spike stage (no unfurled corn leaves). Emerged weeds may not be adequately controlled.

Notes: (1) In the event of escape of annual weeds following a treatment of Bicep MAGNUM TR applied 
alone or in tank mix combination. follow with a postemergence application of an appropriately labeled 
broadleaf and/or grass weed herbicide, Le., Mtrex, Accent@, 8eacon®, Banvel, Basagran®, Brominal®, 
Buctril3:, Clarity®, Exceed'8:. Marksman~, Spirit™, or 2,4-D. If the postemergence treatment includes a 
herbicide used in the Bicep MAGNUM TR tank mix treatment, do not exceed the labeled rate for corn on a 
given soil texture. (2) Brominal or Buctril may be applied postemergence alone or in tank mix combination 
with AAtrex. Do not exceed 1.2 Its. a.i'/A of Mtrex in tank mix combination with Brominal or Buctril post­
emergence. Refer to the AAtrex, Bromina1. and Buctrillabels for specific rates and precautions. (3) If AAtrex 
or another product containing atrazine is used postemergence following application of Bicep MAGNUM 
TR, do not exceed a total of 2.5 ibs. a.L/A of atrazine per year. (4) To avoid potential illegal residues, do 
not apply more than a total of 3.75 !bs. a.i./A per season of 5-metolachlor contained in Dual MAGNUM and 
Bicep MAGNUM brands. If anotrer brand containing metolachlor (Bicep®, Bicep lJ®, Dual, or Dual II) is 
applied to the same acre, multiply Ibs. a.L of metolachlor in the product by a factor of 0.625 to determine the 
amount of S-metotachlor. Do not e-xceed a sum total of 3.75Ibs. a.i./A of 5-metolachlor per growing season. 
Note: To avoid possible illegal -2sidues. do not graze or feed forage from treated areas for 85 days 
following application. 
ROTATIONAL CROPS 
The following crops may be plante-d after the indicated interval following application of Bicep MAGNUM TR. 
Do not rotate to food or feed croes other than those listed below for the specified Rotational Interval.

Notes: (1) If treated crop is lost due to poor germination, hail. flood, insects, etc., corn may be replanted 
immediately. If the original applic.ation was broadcast, do not make a second broadcast application. If the 
original application was bandea and the second crop is planted in the untreated row middles, a second 
banded treatment may be appli-2d. (2) Do not graze or feed forage or fodder from cotton to livestock, or 
illegal residues may result. (3) Irjury may occur to soybeans planted the year following application on soils 
having a calcareous suriace layer. (4) If applied after June 10, do not rotate with crops other than field corn 
or sorghum the next year, or crop injury may occur. (5) In the High Plains and Intermountain areas of the 
West, where rainfall is sparse and erratic or where irrigation is required, use only when field corn or sorghum 
is to follow treated field corn, o. a crop of untreated field corn or sorghum is to precede other rotational 
crops. 
BICEP MAGNUM TR COMBINATIONS - FIELD CORN 
Always follow label instructions for tank mix products when mixing with Bicep MAGNUM TR. 
Note: Check the compatibility of Bicep MAGNUM TR tank mixtures with Bladex or Extrazine II before 
mixing in spray tank by using the procedure described under Application in Water or Fluid Fertilizers. 
Always use Unite (or an equivalent compatibility agent) at 2.0 pts./100 gals. when using Bladex gOOF in tank 
mixtures with Bicep MAGNUM TR. Compatibility testing is especially critical when using Bladex gOOF 
combinations. Always add Bladex or Extrazine II to the spray tank before Bicep MAGNUM TR, regardless 
of which Bladex or Extrazine II formulation is used. 
Conventional Tillage

Landmaster BW, Roundup, or Touchdown 
In minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems where corn is planted directly into a cover crop, stale seedbed, 
established sod, or previous crop residues. the contact herbicides Gramoxone Extra, Landmaster BW, 
Roundup, or Touchdown should be tank mixed with Bicep MAGNUM TR alone or with Bicep MAGNUM TR 
+ AAtrex, Bladex, Dual, Dual II, Dual MAGNUM, Dual II MAGNUM, Extrazine II, or Princep. When used as 
directed, the Gramoxone Extra portion of the tank mixture controls most emerged annual weeds and 
suppresses many perennial weeds. Landmaster BW. Roundup, or Touchdown combinations will control 
emerged annual and perennial weeds when applied as directed on its label. The Bicep MAGNUM TR 
portion of the tank mixture provides preemergence control of the weeds listed on this label in the Bicep 
MAGNUM TR Alone section for corn. The addition of AAtrex, Bladex, Dual, Dual II, Dual MAGNUM, Dual 
II MAGNUM, Extrazine II, or Princep offers the advantage indicated for each under Conventional Tillage. 
Application: Apply before, during, or after planting, but before corn emerges, at the appropriate rate in 
Table 3. AAtrex 4L at 1.0-2.0 pts. (or equivalent rates of AAtrex Nine-O), or up to 1.0 qt. of Bladex 4L 
(1.1 Ibs. of 9ODF) , or 0.5 pt. of Dual or Dual II, or 0.33 pI. of Dual MAGNUM or Dual II MAGNUM, or 
1.0-1.3 qts. of Extrazine II 4L (1.1-1.5 Ibs. of Extrazine II OF), or 1.0 qt. of Princep 4L (1.1 Ibs. of Caliber 90) 
per acre may be added to the rate of Bicep MAGNUM TR recommended in Table 3. Add Gramoxone Extra, 
Landmaster BW, Roundup, or Touchdown at labeled rates. If AAtrex or another form of atrazine is added for 
an improved spectrum of weed control or for more effective burndown in no-till or minimum-till situations, 
follow rate restrictions on the AAtrex label. 
Apply in 20-60 gals. of water per acre with conventional spray equipment 
Tank Mixture of Bicep MAGNUM TR Alone or Bicep MAGNUM TR + AAtrex, Bladex, or 
Extrazine II, with 2,4-0 or 2,4-0 + Sanvel 
In minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems where field corn is planted directly into a cover crop, stale seedbed, 
established sod, or previous crop residues, Bicep MAGNUM TR may be applied in combination with AAtrex, 
Bladex, or Extrazine II. When used as directed, the Bicep MAGNUM TR portion of the tank mixture provides 
preemergence control of the weeds listed on this label in the Bicep MAGNUM TR Alone section for corn. 
Application: Apply Bicep MAGNUM TR wfth AAtrex, Bladex, or Extrazine II before, during, or after plant­
ing, but before corn emerges, at the appropriate rale of Bicep MAGNUM TR in Table 3 for the burn down of 
small ~isting annual weeds. AAtrex 4L at 1.0-2.0 pts. (or equivalent rates of AAtrex Nine-O) or up to 1.0 qt. 
of Bladex 4L (1.1 Ibs. of 90DF), or 1.0-1.3 qts. of Extrazine II 4L (1.1-1.Slbs. of Extrazine II OF) per acre 
may be added to the rate of Bicep MAGNUM TR recommended in Table 3. If AAtrex or another form 
of atrazine is added for an improved spectrum of weed control or for more effective burndown in no-till or 
minimum-till situations, follow rate restrictions on the AAtrex label. 
Where heavy crop residues exist, add an appropriately labeled 2.4-0 amine or low volatile ester to the spray 
tank last and apply in a minimum of 25 gals. of carrier per acre 
As carriers, nitrogen solutions and complete liquid fertilizers, applied before corn emergence, enhance burn­
down of existing weeds, and therefore. are recommended instead of water. Add X-77® surfactant at 1.0-2.0 
qts./100 gals. of diluted spray. or another surfactant cleared for use on growing crops at its recommended 
rate. Apply before weeds exceed 3 inches in height. If alfalfa IS present. add Banvel to the spray mixture at 
0.33-0.5 pt./A and apply before alfalfa exceeds 6 inches in height. 
For fields with existing sod grasses (e.g., bromegrass, orchard grass. rye, or timothy), when existing weeds 
exceed 3 inches in height or when very dry conditions exist, add Gramoxone Extra at the rate of 2.5 pts./A 
in place of or in addition to 2.4-0, as indicated above. More than one application of Gramoxone Extra may 
be needed for satisfactory control of perennial sods, such as orchard grass. Refer to the Gramoxone Extra 
label. Do not apply Gramoxone Extra in suspension-type liquid fertilizer. Observe all directions for use, 
precautions, and limitations on the respective product labels when applying these products in tank mix 
combination.

User Safety Recommendations 
Users shou Id: 
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. 
• Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on dean 
clon"llng 
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. 
As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing. 
Environmental Hazards 
Do not apaly directly to water, to areas where surface water is present. or to intertidal areas below the mean 
high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate. This pesti­
cide contains atrazine, which has been shown to be toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Runoff and drift from 
treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. 
Ground Water Advisory 
Bicep M;"GNUM TR contains the active ingredients atrazine, S-metalachlar, and flumetsulam. 
Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) through soil and can enter ground water which may be used as drinking 
water." Atrazine has been found in ground water. Users are advised nat to apply atrazine to sand and loamy 
sand soils where the water table (ground water) is close to the surface and where these soils are very 
permeable, i.e., wen-drained. Your local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of 
soil in your area and the location of ground water. 
S-metolachlor has the potential to leach through soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result 
of agricl.;l!ural use. Use of this chemical ;n areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water 
table is shallow, may result in ground water contamination. 
FlumetsL'lam has been identified in ground water sampling from a field research site under vulnerable con­
ditions There is the possibility that flumetsulam may leach through soil to ground water, especially where 
soils are coarse and ground water is near the surface. 
Surface Water Advisory 
S-metolachlor has the potential to contaminate surface water through ground spray drift. Under some 
conditions. S-metolachlor may also have a high potential for runoff into surface water (primarily via dissolu­
tion in runoff water) for several months post-application. These include poorly draining 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 acjacent surface waters with vegetated fitter strips, and areas overlaying tile drainage systems that 
drain to suriace water.

Environmental Hazards 
Do. not apply directly to water. to areas where surtace water is present, or 
to InterMal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate 
water when disposing of equipment wash water or rlnsate: T hiS pesticide 
contains alrazine, which has been shown to be toxic to aquatic Invertebrates 
Runoff and drift from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in 
neighboring areas 
Ground Water AdviSOry 
Bicep MAGNUM TR contains Ihe active ingredients atrazine, S-metolachlor, 
and flumetsulam 
Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) through soil and can enter ground water 
which may be used as drinking water. Atrazine has been found in ground 
water. Users are advised not to apply atrazine 10 sand and loamy sand soils 
where the water table (ground water) is close to the surtace and where these 
soils are very permeable, i.e., well-drained, Your local agricultural agencies can 
pl'ovide further information on the type of soil in your area and the location of 
ground water 
S-metrnachlor has the potential to leach through soil into ground water under 
certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this chemical in areas 
where so~s are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may 
result in ground water contamination. 
Flumetsulam has been identified in ground water sampling from a field 
research site under vulnerable conditions. There is the possibility that flumet­
sulam may leach through soil to ground water, especially where soils are 
coarse and ground water IS near the surface. 
Surface Water Advisory 
S-metolachlor has the potential to contaminate surface water through ground 
spray drift. Under some conditions, S-metolachlor may also have a high poten­
tial for runoff into surface water (primarily via dissolution in runoff water) for 
several months post-application. These include poorty draining 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 adja, 
cent surface waters with vegetated filter strips, and areas overlaying tile 
drainage systems that drain to sur1ace water. 
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 antisiphonmg deVices must be used on all mixing equipment

dling or application equipment or containers within 50 ft. of any well are pro­
hibited, 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 teaks 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 10 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
