features such as ponds, streams and springs will reduce the potential
|
||
loading of Metolachlor from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this
|
||
product will be reduced by avoiding application when rainfall or
|
||
irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
|
||
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 all mixing
|
||
and/or irrigation equipment.
|
||
This product may not be mixed or loaded within 50 feet of perennial
|
||
or intermittent streams and rivers, natural or impounded lakes and
|
||
reservoirs. This product may not be mixed/loaded or used within 5
|
||
feet of all 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 feet 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.
|
||
NON-TARGET ORGANISMS ADVISORY
|
||
This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage
|
||
and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinators, in
|
||
areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and habitat
|
||
of non-target organisms by following label directions intended to
|
||
minimize spray drift.
|
||
GENERAL INFORMATION
|
||
Observe all use precautions and limitations on the labels of each
|
||
product used in tank-mixtures. Tank-mixtures are permitted only in
|
||
those states where the tank-mix partner is registered.
|
||
Me-Too-Lachlor II is a herbicide recommended as a pre-plant surface-
|
||
applied, pre-plant incorporated, or pre-emergence treatment in water
|
||
or fluid f ertilizer f or c ontrol o f m ost a nnual g rasses a nd certain
|
||
broadleaf weeds in Field corn and Popcorn.
|
||
Note: Do not use in nurseries, turf, or landscape plantings. Do not
|
||
apply under conditions which favor runoff o r w ind e rosion o f soil
|
||
containing this product to non-target 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 or highly
|
||
compacted surfaces.
|
||
3) Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of
|
||
treated fields to treat non-target crops unless at least one-half inch
|
||
of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation.
|
||
Where directions on this label specify, this product in tank-mixture
|
||
with Atrazine formulations may be used. Follow the rates,
|
||
recommendations, and limitations on the Atrazine product label.
|
||
Note: Certain states may have established rate limitations for Atrazine
|
||
within specific geographical areas. Consult your state lead pesticide
|
||
control agency for additional information. It is a violation of this label
|
||
to deviate from state use regulations. If this product is incorporated,
|
||
any supplemental tillage before planting must not exceed the depth of
|
||
incorporation.
|
||
Dry weather following pre-emergence application of this product or a
|
||
tank-mixture may reduce effectiveness. Cultivate if weeds develop.
|
||
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, 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.
|
||
Use Precautions: Injury may occur following the use of this product
|
||
under abnormally high soil moisture conditions during early
|
||
development of the crop. Do not use on Peat or Muck soils. Do not
|
||
graze or feed forage from treated areas for 30 days following
|
||
application.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
This Product Alone: Mix this product with water or fluid fertilizer
|
||
and apply as a spray. Fill the spray tank one-half to three-quarters
|
||
full with water or fluid fertilizer, add the proper amount of this
|
||
product, then add the rest of the water or fluid fertilizer. Provide
|
||
sufficient agitation during mixing and application to maintain a
|
||
uniform emulsion.
|
||
Tank-Mixtures: Fill the spray tank one-fourth full with water, and
|
||
start agitation; add 2,4-D, Atrazine, Banvel
|
||
®, Linuron, Marksan ®,
|
||
Prowl®, Simazine or Atrazine + Simazine, and allow it to become
|
||
dispersed; then add this product, then add Gramoxone ® Extra,
|
||
Landmaster ® BW, or Glyphosate if these products are being
|
||
used; and finally the rest of the water. For tank-mixtures with
|
||
Atrazine, Banvel, Linuron, Marksman, Prowl*, Simazine or
|
||
Atrazine + Simazine, fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of
|
||
the water as carrier, except in the Atrazine post-emergence
|
||
and the Banvel post-emergence tank-mixes. For tank-mixtures
|
||
with Atrazine, see additional mixing instructions on the Atrazine
|
||
label. For each mixture, check compatibility with fluid fertilizer,
|
||
as described in Appendix A of this label, before mixing in spray
|
||
tank. For all tank-mixtures, agitate during mixing and application
|
||
to maintain a uniform suspension.
|
||
*See Special Mixing Instructions for tank-mixtures with Atrazine or
|
||
Simazine + Prowl under the appropriate tank-mixture section. For
|
||
directions on how to conduct a compatibility test, see Appendix A.

herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed
|
||
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
|
||
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with
|
||
the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170. This Standard
|
||
contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers
|
||
on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers
|
||
of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training,
|
||
decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also
|
||
contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the
|
||
statements on this label about Personal Protective Equipment
|
||
(PPE) and restricted-entry interval.
|
||
The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that
|
||
are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
|
||
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas
|
||
during the Restricted-Entry Interval (REI) of 12 hours.
|
||
Exception: If the product is soil-injected or soil-incorporated,
|
||
the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances,
|
||
allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no
|
||
contact with anything that has been treated. PPE required for
|
||
early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker
|
||
Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything
|
||
that has been treated, such as plants, soil or water is:
|
||
• Coveralls
|
||
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of barrier laminate or viton
|

|
||
To delay herbicide resistance, take one or more of the following
|
||
steps:
|
||
• Rotate the use of this product or other Group 15 mode of
|
||
action herbicides within a growing season sequence or among
|
||
growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control
|
||
the same weeds in a field.
|
||
• Use tank-mixtures with herbicides from a different group if
|
||
such use is permitted; where information on resistance in
|
||
target weed species is available, use the less resistance-prone
|
||
partner at a rate that will control the target weed(s) equally as
|
||
well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local
|
||
extension service or certified crop advisor if you are unsure as
|
||
to which active ingredient is currently less prone to resistance.
|
||
• Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herbicide
|
||
use that includes scouting and uses historical information related
|
||
to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage
|
||
(or other mechanical control methods), cultural (e.g., higher
|
||
crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application method and
|
||
timing to favor the crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-
|
||
competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices.
|
||
• Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations
|
||
for early signs of resistance development. Indicators of possible
|
||
herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed
|
||
species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied,
|
||
especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a
|
||
spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed
|
||
species; (3) surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals
|
||
of the same species. If resistance is suspected, prevent weed
|
||
seed production in the affected area by an alternative herbicide
|
||
from a different group or by a mechanical method such as
|
||
hoeing or tillage. Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds
|
||
to other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment
|
||
when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.
|
||
• If a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment
|
||

|
||
may result.
|
||
2 ) APPLICATION PROCEDURES
|
||
Application Timing
|
||
This product alone or in some tank-mixtures with other labeled
|
||
herbicides may be applied for weed control in Field corn and
|
||
Popcorn at various times. Refer to the given crop section of
|
||
the label to determine if application timings listed below are
|
||
recommended.
|
||
A ) Pre-plant Surface-Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage
|
||
systems only, this product alone and some tank-mixtures of
|
||
this product may be applied up to 45 days before planting.
|
||
Use only split applications for treatments made 30 to 45 days
|
||
before planting, with two-thirds the recommended broadcast
|
||
rate for the crop and soil texture applied initially and the
|
||
remaining one-third at planting. Treatments less than 30 days
|
||
before planting may be made either as a split or a single
|
||
application. If weeds are present at the time of treatment,
|
||
apply in a tank-mixture combination with a contact herbicide
|
||
(for example, Gramoxone Extra or Glyphosate). Observe
|
||
directions for use, use precautions, and restrictions on the
|
||
label of the contact herbicide. To the extent possible, do not
|
||
move treated soil out of the row or move untreated soil to the
|
||
surface during planting, or weed control will be diminished.
|
||
B ) Pre-plant Incorporated: Apply this product to the soil
|
||
and incorporate into the top 2 inches of soil within 14 days
|
||
before planting, using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling cultivator,
|
||
or similar implement capable of providing uniform 2 inch
|
||
incorporation. Use a pre-plant incorporated application if
|
||
furrow irrigation is used or when a period of dry weather
|
||
after application is expected. If Field corn and Popcorn will
|
||
be planted on beds, apply and incorporate this product after
|
||
bed formation, unless specified otherwise.
|
||
C ) Pre-emergence: Apply this product during planting (behind
|
||
the planter) or after planting, but before weeds or Field corn
|
||
and Popcorn emerge.
|
||
3 ) Special Application Procedures
|
||
A) CA Only (Field corn and Popcorn)—Pre-plant Incorporated:
|
||
Broadcast this product alone or with tank-mix partners listed
|
||
on this label to the soil and thoroughly incorporate with a disk
|
||
or similar implement set to till 4 to 6 inches deep. For more
|
||
thorough incorporation, till the soil in 2 different directions
|
||
(cross-till). Field corn and Popcorn may be planted on flat
|
||
surface or on beds. Caution should be used when forming the
|
||
beds that only soil from this product’s treated zone is used
|
||
(i.e., untreated soil should not be brought to soil surface).
|
||
If the application is made to preformed beds, incorporate
|
||
this product with a tillage implement set to till 2 to 4 inches
|
||
deep. Care should be taken during tilling to keep the tilled
|
||
(this product treated) soil on the beds.
|
||
B) Pre-emergence: Apply this product after planting. Water
|
||
with sprinkler or flood irrigation within 7 to 10 days.
|
||
C) Fall Application (Only in IA, MN, ND, SD, WI, and
|
||
portions of NE and IL - see specific instructions for
|
||
timing of application and other information): Do not apply
|
||
to frozen ground. Use on Medium and Fine soils with greater
|
||
than 2.5% organic matter that will be planted to Field corn
|
||
or Popcorn the next Spring. Ground may be tilled before or
|
||
after application. Do not exceed a 2 to 3 inch incorporation
|
||
depth if tilled after treatment. Note: If a Spring application is
|
||
made, the total rate of the Fall plus Spring applications must
|
||
not exceed the maximum total rate for the specific crop, or
|
||
illegal residues may result.
|
||
D) Ground Application: Apply this product alone or in tank-
|
||
mixtures by ground equipment in a minimum of 10 gallons
|
||
of spray mixture per acre, unless otherwise specified.
|
||
Use sprayers that provide accurate and uniform application.
|
||
For tank-mixtures of this product with wettable powder or
|
||
dry flowable formulations, screens and strainers should be
|
||
no finer than 50 mesh. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean
|
||
water immediately after use.
|
||
Calculate the amount of herbicide needed for band treatment by
|
||
the formula.
|
||

|
||
2 ) WEEDS PARTIALLY CONTROLLED*:
|
||
*See “ GENERAL INFORMATION” section. Control of these
|
||
weeds can be erratic, due partially to variable weather
|
||
conditions. Control may be improved by following these
|
||
suggested procedures:
|
||
A) Use 2 to 2.67 pints per acre or the pre-plant surface-
|
||
applied rates for this product alone or in tank-mixture,
|
||
if allowed, when making pre-plant incorporated or pre-
|
||
emergence applications.
|
||
B) Thoroughly till moist soil to destroy germinating and
|
||
emerged weeds. If this product is to be applied pre-plant
|
||
incorporated, this tillage may be used to incorporate this
|
||
product if uniform 2 inch incorporation is achieved as
|
||
recommended under “APPLICATION PROCEDURES” .
|
||
C) Plant Field corn and Popcorn into moist soil immediately
|
||
after tillage. If this product is to be used pre-emergence,
|
||
apply at planting or immediately after planting.
|
||
D) If available, sprinkler irrigate within 2 days after application.
|
||
Apply one-half to 1 inch of water. Use lower water volume
|
||
(one-half inch) on Coarse-textured soils and higher volume
|
||
(1 inch) on Fine-textured soils . Also, refer to the section
|
||
on “ CENTER PIVOT IRRIGATION APPLICATION” for
|
||
this method of applying this product.
|
||
E) If irrigation is not possible and rain does not occur within
|
||
2 days after planting and application, weed control may
|
||
be decreased. Under these conditions, a uniform, shallow
|
||
cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds emerge.
|
||
**For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 2 pints
|
||
per acre and apply pre-emergence.
|
||
***For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 2 pints
|
||
per acre and apply through a center pivot irrigation system.
|
||
3 ) ROTATIONAL CROPS
|
||
This Product Alone:
|
||
A) If crop treated with this product alone is lost, either Field corn
|
||
or Popcorn may be replanted immediately. Do not make a
|
||
second broadcast application of this product. If the original
|
||
application was banded and the second crop is planted in
|
||
the untreated row middles, a second banded treatment may
|
||
be applied.
|
||
B) Barley, Oats, Rye, or Wheat may be planted 4.5 months
|
||
following treatment; Alfalfa may be planted 4 months following
|
||
application. Tomatoes may be planted 6 months following
|
||

||
Rice, Root crops, Rye, Tobacco, or Wheat may be planted in
|
||
the next Spring following treatment. Clover may be seeded
|
||
9 months following application. Do not graze or feed forage
|
||
or fodder from Cotton to livestock.
|
||
D) Following a lay-by treatment or multiple treatments applied
|
||
the previous season, Field corn and Popcorn in addition to
|
||
Cabbage, Peppers or Tobacco may be planted in the Spring.
|
||
All other rotational crops may be planted 12 months after a
|
||
lay-by application.

C) O n Medium and Fine-textured soils with minimum- or no-
|
||
tillage systems in CT, DE, MA, MD, ME, MI, NH, NY, OH,
|
||
PA, RI, VA, VT, and WV, pre-plant surface applications may
|
||
be applied following the directions for use above. If the
|
||
amount of rainfall results in unsatisfactory length of weed
|
||
control following the earlier treatment, a post-emergence
|
||
application of an appropriately labeled broadleaf and /or grass
|
||
weed herbicide may be used, i.e., Accent
|
||
®, Atrazine, Banvel,
|
||
Basagran, Beacon ®, Bicep ®, Bromoxynil (Brominal ® or Buctril ®),
|
||
Exceed®, or 2,4-D. If the post-emergence treatment includes
|
||
the herbicide used pre-plant surface-applied, do not exceed

ratio of Atrazine + Simazine, instead of the 1:1 ratio given. (Example:
|
||
Total Atrazine 90DF + Simazine 90DF = 1.8 lbs. /A, use 0.6 lb.
|
||
of Atrazine + 1.2 lbs. of Simazine, respectively.) Refer to Comment
|
||
No. 2 following Chart 1 for Atrazine 4L and Simazine 4L conversions.
|
||
***For Cocklebur, Yellow nutsedge, and Velvetleaf control on Fine-textured
|
||
soils above 3% organic matter, apply 2.25 pounds per acre of Atrazine 90DF,
|
||
or equivalent rate of Atrazine 4L, or the same total amount of Atrazine +
|
||
Simazine, with 1.33 to 1.67 pints per acre of this product.
|
||
TANK-MIXTURE WITH ATRAZINE; OR ATRAZINE + 2,4-D; OR
|
||
ATRAZINE + 2,4-D + BANVEL FOR MINIMUM-TILLAGE OR NO-
|
||
TILLAGE SYSTEMS
|
||
In minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems where Field corn and
|
||
Popcorn is planted directly into a cover crop, stale seedbed,
|
||
established sod, or previous crop residues, this product applied in
|
||
combination with Atrazine will kill most emerged small annual
|
||
weeds. Apply this product + Atrazine before, during, or after planting,
|
||
but before Field corn and Popcorn emerges, according to the rates
|
||
in Table 1.
|
||
Where heavy crop residues exist, add 0.8 to 1.6 pints per acre
|
||
of an appropriately labeled 3.8 pounds a.i. per gallons of 2,4-D
|
||
amine (such as Weedar
|
||
® 64, Weedar 64A, DMA-4 Herbicide,
|
||
or Formula 40) to the spray tank last and apply in a minimum
|
||
of 25 gallons of carrier per acre.
|
||
As carriers, nitrogen solutions and complete liquid fertilizers,
|
||
applied before Corn emergence, enhance burndown of existing
|
||
weeds, and therefore, are recommended instead of water. Add
|
||
X-77 surfactant at 1 to 2 quarts per 100 gallons of diluted spray,
|
||
or another appropriate surfactant at its recommended rate, or
|
||
add crop oil concentrate plus 28% liquid nitrogen (or equivalent).
|
||
Apply before weeds exceed 3 inches in height. If Alfalfa is
|
||
present, add Banvel to the spray mixture at 0.33 to 0.5 pint
|
||
per acre and apply before Alfalfa exceeds 6 inches in height.
|
||
For fields with existing sod grasses (e.g., Bromegrass, Orchardgrass,
|
||
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 pints per acre in place of or in addition to 2,4-
|
||
D, as indicated above. Do not apply Gramoxone Extra in
|
||
suspension-type liquid fertilizer. Observe all directions for use,
|
||
use precautions, and limitations on the respective product labels
|
||
when applying these products in tank-mix combination.
|
||
TANK-MIXTURE WITH MARKSMAN IN CONSERVATION TILLAGE
|
||
— FIELD CORN
|
||
In conservation tillage systems where Field corn is planted directly
|
||
into a cover crop or previous crop residue, this product
|
||
+ Marksman will kill most emerged small annual weeds. Apply this
|
||
product + Marksman before, during, or after planting, but before
|
||
Corn emergence on Medium and Fine soils with greater than 2.5%
|
||
organic matter. For fields with existing vegetation exceeding 3
|
||
inches in height or when very dry conditions exist, add Gramoxone
|
||
Extra at its standard rate. This product + Marksman may be applied
|
||
post-emergence to Field corn less than 3 inches tall and before
|
||
weedy grasses exceed the 2 leaf stage.
|
||
As carriers, nitrogen solutions and complete liquid fertilizers, applied
|
||
before Corn emergence, enhance burndown of existing weeds. Do
|
||
not apply Gramoxone Extra in suspension-type liquid fertilizer or use
|
||
on
|
||
emerged Corn.
|
||
Refer to the Marksman label and follow all directions, limitations, use
|
||
precautions, and information regarding application and use in Field
|
||
Corn.

APPENDICES
|
||
APPENDIX A: COMPATIBILITY TEST
|
||
Since liquid fertilizers can vary, even within the same analysis,
|
||
always check compatibility with herbicide(s) each time before
|
||
use. Be especially careful when using complete suspension
|
||
or fluid fertilizers, as serious compatibility problems are more
|
||
likely to occur. Commercial application equipment may improve
|
||
compatibility in some instances. The following test assumes a
|
||
spray volume of 25 gallons per acre. For other spray volumes,
|
||
make appropriate changes in the ingredients. Check compatibility
|
||
using this procedure:
|
||
1. Add 1 pint of fertilizer to each of 2 one-quart jars with tight
|
||
lids.
|
||
2. To one of the jars, add one-quarter teaspoon or 1.2 milliliters
|
||
of a compatibility agent approved for this use, such as Compex
|
||
or Unite (one-quarter tsp. is equivalent to 2 pts. /100 gals.
|
||
spray). Shake or stir gently to mix.
|
||
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s).
|
||
If more than one herbicide is used, add them separately
|
||
with dry herbicides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable
|
||
concentrates last. After each addition, 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 1.5 level teaspoons to each jar.
|
||
Liquid herbicides: For each pint to be applied per acre,
|
||
add one-half teaspoon or 2.5 mi lliliters to each jar.
|
||
Note: For this product in tank-mixtures with Atrazine + Simazine,
|
||
use one-third to one-half the amount of Atrazine specified above
|
||
and the remainder as Simazine, depending on whether the 1:2
|
||
or 1:1 ratio of Atrazine to Simazine is to be applied.
|
||
4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert
|
||
each jar 10 times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15 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 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 improving compatibility: (A)
|
||
slurry the dry herbicide(s) in water before addition, or (B)
|
||
add one-half of the compatibility agent to the fertilizer and
|
||
the other one-half to the emulsifiable concentrate or flowable
|
||
herbicide before addition to the mixture. If incompatibility is
|
||
still observed, do not use the mixture.
|
||
APPENDIX B: LOW CARRIER APPLICATION
|
||
For Broadcast Ground Application Only
|
||
Use sprayers, such as Ag-Chem RoGator ®, Hagie, John Deere
|
||
Hi-Cycle™, Melroe Spra-Coupe, Tyler Patriot™, or Willmar
|
||
Air Ride ®, that provide accurate and uniform application. Only
|
||
water may be used as a carrier . Screens in suction and in-line
|
||
strainers should be 50 mesh. Manufacturers may require that
|
||
tip screens as fine as 100 mesh be used with some nozzles.
|
||
Use a pump with capacity to: (1) maintain up to 35 to 40 psi at
|
||
the nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep
|
||
mixture in suspension. Use a minimum of 5 gallons of spray
|
||
mixture per acre. Maximum recommended sprayer speed is 15
|
||
mph. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean water immediately
|
||
after each use.
|
||
Note: Low pressure nozzles are recommended to reduce drift
|
||
and increase application accuracy. Care should be taken when
|
||
using automatic rate controlling devices to spray the material
|
||
within the rated working pressure and flow ranges of the nozzles
|
||
selected. Nozzle screens should be used when recommended
|
||
by the manufacturer. All nozzles should be placed on 20 inch
|
||
centers, except flooding types which should be placed on 40
|
||
inch centers. When Flat Fan-type nozzles are used, angles
|
||
of 80° or 110° are recommended. Always read and follow the
|
||
manufacturer’s directions for optimum setup and performance
|
||
of their nozzles or tips.
|
||
APPENDIX C: AERIAL APPLICATION
|
||
Apply this product in water alone or in tank-mixtures with Atrazine,
|
||
or Linuron in a minimum total volume of 2 gallons per acre by
|
||
aircraft. This product may also be applied by air in combination
|
||
with Prowl. Avoid application under conditions where uniform
|
||
coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may
|
||
occur. To assure that spray will not adversely affect adjacent
|
||
sensitive non-target plants, apply this product alone or this
|
||
product + Atrazine by aircraft at a minimum upwind distance of
|
||
400 feet from sensitive plants, or apply this product + Linuron
|
||
at a minimum upwind distance of 300 feet from sensitive plants.
|
||
Avoid application to humans or animals. Flagmen and loaders
|
||
should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact
|
||
with skin.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
|
||
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING
|
||
OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT.
|
||
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND
|
||
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
|
||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use
|
||
the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While applying
|
||
larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be
|
||
greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable
|
||
environmental conditions.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||
Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets
|
||
are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical
|
||
spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is
|
||
needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
|
||
Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for
|
||
the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size.
|
||
Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended
|
||
application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for
|
||
setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles
|
||
should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop
|
||
and have minimal bounce.
|
||
ME-TOO-LACHLOR V PAGE 10 of 9
|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
GROUND BOOM APPLICATIONS:
|
||
• User must only apply with the release height recommended by the
|
||
manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop
|
||
canopy.
|
||
• Applicators are required to select the nozzles and pressure that
|
||
deliver medium or coarser droplets (ASABE S572).
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the
|
||
application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
BOOMLESS GROUND APPLICATIONS:
|
||
• Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that
|
||
deliver medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.3) for all
|
||
applications.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the
|
||
application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
AERIAL APPLICATIONS:
|
||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the
|
||
ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is
|
||
necessary for pilotsafety.
|
||
• Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that
|
||
deliver medium or coarser droplets (ASABE S641).
|
||
• If the wind speed is 10 miles per hour or less, applicators must use
|
||
one-half swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the
|
||
field. When the wind speed is between 11 to 15 miles per hour,
|
||
applicators must use three-fourths swath displacement upwind at
|
||
the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the
|
||
application site. If the wind speed is greater than 10 mph, the boom
|
||
length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft
|
||
and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise,
|
||
the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed-
|
||
wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
554SP-0321asteriskPending.indd 11 3/29/2021 1:46:42 PM
|
||
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
|
||
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
|
||
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
|
||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray
|
||
drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields
|
||
are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on
|
||
the target area.
|
||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
|
||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger
|
||
droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
|
||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature
|
||
inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with
|
||
altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover
|
||
and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be
|
||
indicated by ground fog or 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.
|
||
Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
|
||
WIND
|
||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID
|
||
APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.
|
||
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain
|
||
that could affect spray drift.
|
||
BOOMLESS GROUND APPLICATIONS
|
||
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce
|
||
the potential for spray drift.
|
||
HANDHELD TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS
|
||
Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
|
||
APPENDIX D: CENTER PIVOT IRRIGATION APPLICATION
|
||
This product alone in tank-mixture with other herbicides on this
|
||
label, which are registered for center pivot application, may be
|
||
applied in irrigation water pre-emergence (after planting, but
|
||
before weeds or crop emerge) at rates recommended on this
|
||
label. This product also may be applied post-emergence to the
|
||
Field corn crop or Popcorn crop and pre-emergence to weeds
|
||
in Field corn or Popcorn where post-emergence applications are
|
||
allowed on this label. Follow all restrictions (height, timing, rate,
|
||
etc.) to avoid illegal residues. Apply this product only through
|
||
a center pivot irrigation system. 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. If you have
|
||
questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension
|
||
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 down the system and make
|
||
the necessary adjustments should the need arise.
|
||
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 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 or piston
|
||
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.
|
||
8 . Prepare a mixture with a minimum of 1 part of water to 1
|
||
part herbicide(s) and inject this mixture into the center pivot
|
||
system. Injecting a larger volume of more dilute mixture
|
||
per hour will usually provide more accurate calibration of
|
||
metering equipment. Maintain sufficient agitation to keep
|
||
the herbicide in suspension.
|
||
9 . Meter into irrigation water during entire period of water
|
||
application.
|
||
1 0 . Apply in one-half to 1 inch of water. Use the lower water
|
||
volume (one-half inch) on Coarse-textured soils and the
|
||
higher volume (1 inch) on Fine-textured soils . More than
|
||
1 inch of water at application may reduce weed control by
|
||
moving the herbicide below the effective zone in the soil.
|
||
Use Precautions: for center pivot applications: Where sprinkler
|
||
distribution patterns do not overlap sufficiently, unacceptable weed
|
||
control may result. Where sprinkler distribution patterns overlap
|
||
excessively, crop injury may result.
|
||
APPENDIX E: DRY BULK GRANULAR FERTILIZERS
|
||
Many dry bulk granular fertilizers may be impregnated or coated
|
||
with this product alone or selected tank-mixtures of this product
|
||
which are registered for pre-plant incorporated or pre-plant
|
||
surface application which are used to control weeds in crops
|
||
on this product label and are not prohibited from use on dry
|
||
bulk granular fertilizers.
|
||
When applying this product or this product mixtures with dry bulk
|
||
granular fertilizers, follow all directions for use and use precautions
|
||
on the respective product labels regarding Field corn and Popcorn,
|
||
rates per acre, soil texture, application methods (including timing of
|
||
application), and rotational crops.
|
||
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk granular
|
||
fertilizer blending, registration, labeling, and application are
|
||
the responsibility of the individual and /or company selling the
|
||
herbicide /fertilizer mixture.
|
||
Prepare the herbicide /fertilizer mixtures by using any closed drum,
|
||
belt, ribbon, or other commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender.
|
||
Nozzles used to spray this product and this product mixtures onto
|
||
the fertilizer must be placed to provide uniform spray coverage. Care
|
||
should be taken to aim the spray directly onto the fertilizer only and
|
||
to avoid spraying the walls of the blender.
|
||
If the herbicide /fertilizer mixture is too wet, add a highly absorptive
|
||
material, such as Agsorb ® 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 six-thirtieth 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 amounts of this product, Atrazine, Atrazine + Simazine or
|
||
Simazine by the following formula:
|
||
2,000
|
||
lbs. of fertilizer per acre x
|
||
pts./A of liquid
|
||
or flowable
|
||
product
|
||
=
|
||
pints of liquid or
|
||
flowable product per
|
||
ton of fertilizer
|
||
2,000
|
||
lbs. of fertilizer per acre x lbs./A of dry
|
||
product = pounds of dry product
|
||
per ton of fertilizer
|
||
Pneumatic (Compressed Air) Application (This Product Alone):
|
||
High humidity, high urea concentrations, low fertilizer use rates,
|
||
and dusty fertilizer may cause fertilizer mixture to build up or
|
||
plug the distributor head, air tubes, or nozzle deflector plates. To

Notes: (1) Mixtures of this product and Aromatic 200 must
|
||
be used on dry fertilizer only. Poor results or crop injury may
|
||
result if these mixtures are used in water or liquid fertilizer
|
||
solutions for spraying applications. (2) When impregnating this
|
||
product in a blender before application, a drier mixture can be
|
||
attained by substituting a drying agent for Aromatic 200. The
|
||
use of Agsorb FG or drying agents of six-thirtieth particle size
|
||
are recommended. (3) Drying agents are not recommended for
|
||
use with the On-The-Go impregnation equipment.
|
||
Use Precautions: To avoid potential for explosion, (1) Do not
|
||
impregnate this product or this product mixtures on ammonium
|
||
nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodium nitrate, either alone or in
|
||
blends with other fertilizers. (2) Do not use this product or this
|
||
product mixtures on straight limestone, since absorption will
|
||
not be achieved. Fertilizer blends containing limestone can be
|
||
impregnated.
|
||
Application
|
||
Apply 200 to 700 pounds of the herbicide /fertilizer mixture per
|
||
acre. For best results, apply the mixture uniformly to the soil
|
||
with properly calibrated equipment immediately after blending.
|
||
Uniform application of the herbicide /fertilizer mixture is essential
|
||
to prevent possible crop injury. Non-uniform application may also
|
||
result in unsatisfactory weed control. In areas where conventional
|
||
tillage is practiced, a shallow incorporation of the mixture into the
|
||
soil may improve weed control. On Fine or Medium-textured soils
|
||
in areas where soil incorporation is not planned, i.e., reduced
|
||
tillage situations or in some conventional till situations, make
|
||
applications approximately 30 days before planting to allow
|
||
moisture to move the herbicide /fertilizer mixture into the soil.
|
||
On Coarse-textured soils , make applications approximately 14
|
||
days prior to planting.
|
||
Use Precaution: To avoid crop injury, do not user the
|
||
herbicide/fertilizer mixture on Field corn and Popcorn where bedding
|
||
occurs.
