ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||
|
||
Groundwater Advisory: This chemical has properties and char acteristics associated with chemicals
|
||
detected in groundwater. This chemical may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are
|
||
permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
|
||
|
||
Surface Water Advisory: This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water.
|
||
This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is
|
||
classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff for days after application. A level,
|
||
well-maintained vegetative buffer st rip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water
|
||
features such as ponds, streams, and springs will re duce the potential loading of thifensulfuron-methyl
|
||
from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by avoiding applications
|
||
when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
|
||
|
||
Non-target Organism Advisory: This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage
|
||
and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinat ors, in areas adjacent to the treated area. Protect
|
||
the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by minimizing spray drift. For further guidance and
|
||
instructions on how to minimize spray drift, refer to the Spray Drift Management section of this label.
|
||
|
||
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
|
||
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact wo rkers or other persons, either directly or through
|
||
drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area du ring application. For any requirements specific to
|
||
your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
|
||
|
||
|
||
WINDBLOWN SOIL PARTICLES: Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide has the potential to move off-site
|
||
due to wind erosion. Soils that are subject to wind erosion usually have a high silt and/or fine to very
|
||
fine sand fractions and low organic matter content. Other factors which can affects the movement of
|
||
windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing winds, vegetative cover, site slope,
|
||
rainfall, and drainage patterns. Avoid applying Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide if prevailing local
|
||
conditions may be expected to result in off-site movement.

|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
Aerial Applications:
|
||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a
|
||
greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to
|
||
use a Coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S641).
|
||
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size
|
||
(ASABE S641).
|
||
• The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade
|
||
diameter for helicopters.
|
||
• Applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||
• Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet
|
||
above the ground or crop canopy unless making a turf, pasture, or rangeland application, in
|
||
which case applicators may apply with a nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground.
|
||
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to
|
||
use a Coarse or coarser droplet size (ASAE S572.3).
|
||
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size
|
||
(ASAE S572.3).
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
Boom-less Ground Applications:
|
||
• Applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size ( ASAE S572.3) for all
|
||
applications.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
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 Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray
|
||
nozzles that will provide uniform coverage. For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with
|
||
|
||
4
|
||
the crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||
|
||
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
|
||
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. When applying aerially to crops, do not
|
||
release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy, unless a greater application
|
||
height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
Boom-less 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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide contains the Group 2 herbicides –
|
||
thifensulfuron methyl. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to Thifen
|
||
E-AG 75 WDG and other Group 2 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed
|
||
population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate
|
||
resistance-management strategies should be followed.
|
||
|
||
When herbicides that affect the same biological site of action are used repeatedly over several years to
|
||
control the same weed species in the same field, naturally-occurring resistant biotypes may survive a
|
||
correctly applied herbicide treatment, propagate, and become dominant in that field. Adequate control
|
||
of these resistant weed biotypes cannot be expected. If weed control is unsatisfactory, it may be
|
||
necessary to retreat the problem area using a product affecting a different site of action.
|
||
|
||
To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
|
||
• Rotate the use of Thifen E -AG 75 WDG or other Group 2 herbicides within a growing season
|
||
sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a
|
||
field.
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
• 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 before and 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 with this product, discontinue use of
|
||
this product, and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if
|
||
available. Users should report lack of performance to registrant or their representative.
|
||
|
||
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance -
|
||
management and/or integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed
|
||
biotypes.
|
||
|
||
• For further information or to report suspected resistance, contact Nufarm contact at 855 -280-6609.
|
||
It is advisable to keep accurate records of pesticides applied to individual fields to help obtain
|
||
information on the spread and dispersal of resistant biotypes. Contact your local sales representative,
|
||
crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this MOA have been found
|
||
in your region. Do not assume that each listed weed is being controlled by this mechanisms of action.
|
||
Co-formulated active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum of weeds that are controlled.
|
||
Some weeds may be controlled by only one of the active ingredient in this product.
|
||
|
||
Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
|
||
x Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied,
|
||
especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
x A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
|
||
x Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
|
||
GENERAL INFORMATION
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide is a dry flowable granule that is mixed in a carrier and broadcast sprayed
|
||
for selective postemergence control of certain broadleaf weeds in the following crops and sites:
|
||
Crop Use Site
|
||
Barley Pre-plant burndown
|
||
Corn Post-harvest burndown
|
||
Oats Fallow
|
||
Rice
|
||
Sorghum
|
||
(grain)
|
||
Soybeans
|
||
Triticale
|
||
Wheat (including durum)
|
||
|
||
6
|
||
NOTE: Before using Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide, be certain that is registered for use in you, state by
|
||
checking with your state extension service or Department of Agriculture.
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide rapidly stops th e growth of susceptible weeds. However, typical
|
||
symptoms of dying weeds (discoloration) may not be noticeable for 1-3 weeks after application (2-5
|
||
weeks for wild garlic) depending on the environmental conditions and weed susceptibility. Warm, moist
|
||
conditions following treatment prom ote the activity of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide, while cold, dry
|
||
conditions delay the activity. Weeds hardened-off by cold weather or drought stress will be less
|
||
susceptible.
|
||
Weed spectrum and size of weed at time of app lication determines the use rate. Duration of effect
|
||
and degree of control are dependent upon the rate applied, the sensitivity and size of the target
|
||
weeds, and environmental conditions at the time of and following application.
|
||
For best results, apply Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide to young, actively growing weeds. Because a
|
||
vigorous growing crop aids weed control by shading and providing competition, in areas of thin crop
|
||
stand or seeding skips weeds may not be adequately controlled. Conversely, a dense crop canopy at
|
||
time of application may result in reduced weed control by intercepting spray.
|
||
GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||
Do NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
Do NOT graze or feed forage or hay from treated ar eas to livestock (harvested straw may be used for
|
||
bedding and / or feed).
|
||
Do NOT use with spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below pH 5.0 or above pH 9.0,
|
||
as rapid product degradation can occur. Spray soluti ons of pH 6.0-8.0 allow for optimum stability of
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide.
|
||
Do NOT apply to wheat, barley, oat or triticale crops underseeded with another crop.
|
||
Unsatisfactory control may result if applications are made to weeds under stress, that are in the
|
||
cotyledon stage, or that are larger than the sizes indicated.
|
||
Applying Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide to crops that are stressed or known to be sensitive to this
|
||
product may result in injury.
|
||
Different varieties of a crop may have differing leve ls of sensitivity to Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide
|
||
under otherwise normal conditions.
|
||
For Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide to be sufficientl y absorbed by weed foliage, several hours of dry
|
||
weather are required. If rainfall or snowfall occurs soon after application, weed control may be
|
||
adversely affected.
|
||

|
||
Take all necessary precautions to avoid all direct or indirect contact (such as spray drift) with non-
|
||
target plants or areas.
|
||
Carefully observe all sprayer cleanup instructions both prior to and after using this product, as
|
||
sprayer tank residue may damage crops other than wheat, barley, oat, triticale, corn, or soybeans.
|
||
Wheat, barley, oat, triticale, corn and soybean va rieties may differ in th eir response to various
|
||
herbicides. Etigra recommends that you first consul t your state experiment station, university, or
|
||
extension agent as to sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is available, limit the initial use of
|
||
|
||
7
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide to a small area.
|
||
For wheat, barley, oat, and triticale, under certain co nditions such as heavy rainfall, prolonged cold
|
||
weather (daily high temperature less than 50 Deg. F. ), or wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures
|
||
prior to or soon after Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herb icide application, temporary discoloration and/or
|
||
crop injury may occur. To reduce the potential of crop injury, tank mix Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide
|
||
with 2,4-D (ester formulations perform best-see the TANK MIXTURES section of this label) and apply
|
||
after the crop is in the tillering stage of growth.
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide should not be appl ied to corn, oat, wheat, barley, triticale, or
|
||
soybeans that are stressed by severe weather cond itions, drought (including low levels of subsoil
|
||
moisture), low fertility, water-saturated soil, diseas e, or insect damage, as crop injury may result.
|
||
Risk of injury is greatest when the cereal crop is in the 2 to 5-leaf stage. Severe winter stress,
|
||
drought, disease, or insect damage following application also may result in crop injury.
|
||
Control of weeds in wheel track areas may be redu ced for ground applications applied to weeds
|
||
when dry, dusty field conditions exist.
|
||
SPRAY ADJUVANTS
|
||
Always include a spray adjuvant with applications of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide. In addition to a
|
||
spray adjuvant, an ammonium nitrogen fertilizer ma y be used. Do not use low rates of liquid nitrogen
|
||
fertilizer solution as a substitute for surfactant. Antifoaming agents may be used if needed.
|
||
Consult your Ag dealer or applicator, local Etigra fa ct sheets and technical bulletins prior to using an
|
||
adjuvant system. If another herbicide is tank mixed with Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide, select
|
||
adjuvants authorized for use with both products. Pr oducts must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients
|
||
(40 CFR 1001).

Any other crop may be planted 45 days after the application of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
1. Fill the tank ¼ to 1/3 full of water
|
||
2. While agitating, add the required amount of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
8
|
||
3. Continue agitation until the Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide is fully dispersed, at least 5 minutes.
|
||
4. Once the Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide is fully dispersed, maintain agitation and continue
|
||
filling tank with water. Thifen E-AG 75 WDG He rbicide should be thoroughly mixed with water
|
||
before adding any other material.
|
||
5. As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners (if desired) then add the required volume of spray
|
||
adjuvant. Always add spray adjuvant last. Anti foaming agents may be used. Do not use with
|
||
spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below pH 6.0 as rapid product
|
||
degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 7.0 and higher allow for optimum stability
|
||
of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide.
|
||
6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settlin g will occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-
|
||
agitate before using.
|
||
7. Apply Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide spray mixtur e within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product
|
||
degradation.
|
||
8. If Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide and a tank mix part ner are to be applied in multiple loads, pre-
|
||
slurry the Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide in clean water prior to adding to the tank. This will
|
||
prevent the tank mix partner from interfering wi th the dissolution of the Thifen E-AG 75 WDG
|
||
Herbicide.
|
||
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
Do not apply during a temperature inversion, when winds are gusty, or when conditions favor poor
|
||
coverage and/or off-target spray movement.
|
||
In wheat, barley, oats, triticale, post-harvest bu rndown, pre-plant burndown and fallow apply 2 - 5
|
||
gallons per acre; In Idaho, Oregon and Utah use at least 3 gallons per acre.
|
||
In corn and soybeans, use a minimum of 5 gallons per acre.
|
||
When applying Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide by ai r in areas adjacent to sensitive crops, use solid
|
||
stream nozzles oriented straight back. Adjust the sw ath to avoid spray drift damage to sensitive crops
|
||
downwind and/or use ground equipment to treat th e border edge of fields. See the Spray Drift
|
||
Management section of this label.
|
||
WHEAT, BARLEY, OAT, TRITICALE, POST-HARVEST BURNDOWN, PRE-PLANT BURNDOWN AND
|
||
FALLOW:
|
||
For flat-fan nozzles, use a spray volume of at least 5 gal per acre (GPA).
|
||
For flood nozzles on 30" spacings, use at least 10 GPA, flood nozzles no larger than TK10 (or the
|
||
equivalent), and a pressure of at least 30 psi. Fo r 40" nozzle spacings, use at least 13 GPA; for 60"
|
||
spacings use at least 20 GPA. It is essential to overlap the nozzles 100% for all spacings.
|
||
Raindrop RA® nozzles are not recommended for Thif en E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide applications, as
|
||
weed control performance may be reduced.
|
||
Use screens that are 50-mesh or larger.
|
||
CORN AND SOYBEANS
|
||
Broadcast Application
|
||
Use 10-25 gallons of water per acre.
|
||
Ensure that equipment is set up to avoid applying an excessive rate directly over the rows and into
|
||
the corn plant whorl.
|
||
Overlaps or starting, stopping, slowing, and turning while spraying may result in crop injury.
|
||
Under heavy weed pressure or dense crop foliage, increase minimum spray volume to 15-25 gal
|
||
per acre.
|
||
|
||
Band Application
|
||
For band applications, use proportionately less spray mixture.
|
||
To avoid crop injury, carefully calibrate the band applicator to not exceed the labeled rate.
|
||
Carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions for nozzle type (flat fans), orientation, distance of nozzles
|
||
from the crop and weeds, spray volumes, calibration and spray pressure.
|
||
|
||
9
|
||
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
|
||
For specific application equipment, refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for additional
|
||
information on GPA, pressure, speed, nozzle ty pes and arrangements, nozzle heights above the
|
||
target canopy, etc.
|
||
Be sure to calibrate air or ground equipment properly before application. Select a spray volume and
|
||
delivery system that will ensure thorough coverage and uniform spray pattern with minimum drift. Use
|
||
higher spray volumes to obtain better coverage when crop canopy is dense. Avoid swath
|
||
overlapping, and shut off spray booms while starting, turning, slowing, or stopping, to avoid injury to
|
||
the crop. Do not make applications using equi pment and/or spray volumes or during weather
|
||
conditions that might cause spray to drift onto non- target sites. For additional information on spray
|
||
drift refer to the SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT section of this label. Continuous agitation is required
|
||
to keep Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide in suspension.
|
||
SPRAYER CLEANUP
|
||
The spray equipment must be cleaned before Thifen E- AG 75 WDG Herbicide is sprayed. Follow the cleanup
|
||
procedures specified on the labels of the previously appl ied products. If no directions are provided, follow the six
|
||
steps outlined in the AFTER SPRAYING Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide section of this label.
|
||
AT THE END OF THE DAY
|
||
It is recommended that during periods when multiple loads of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide are applied, at
|
||
the end of each day of spraying the interior of the tank being rinsed with fresh water and then partially filled, and
|
||
the boom and hoses flushed. This will prevent the buildu p of dried pesticide deposits which can accumulate in
|
||
the application equipment.
|
||
AFTER SPRAYING THIFEN E-AG 75 WDG HERBICIDE AND BEFORE SPRAYING CROPS OTHER THAN
|
||
WHEAT, BARLEY, OAT, TRITICALE, FIELD CORN AND SOYBEANS
|
||
To avoid subsequent injury to desirable crops, thoroughly clean all mixing and spray equipment immediately
|
||
following applications of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide as follows:
|
||
1. Drain tank; thoroughly rinse spray tanks, boom, an d hoses with clean water . Loosen and physically
|
||
remove any visible deposits.
|
||
2. Fill the tank with clean water and 1 gal of household ammonia † (contains 3% active ingredient) for every
|
||
100 gal of water. Flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles with the cleaning solution. Then add more water to
|
||
completely fill the tank. Circulate the cleaning solution through the tank and hoses for at least 15 min.
|
||
Flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles again with the cleaning solution and then drain the tank.
|
||
3. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a bucket containing cleaning agent and water.
|
||
4. Repeat step 2.
|
||
5. Rinse the tank, boom, and hoses with clean water.
|
||
6. If only Ammonia is used as a cleaner, the rinsat e solution may be applied back to the crop(s)
|
||
recommended on this label. Do not exceed the ma ximum labeled use rate. If other cleaners are used,
|
||
consult the cleaner label for rinsate disposal instruct ions. If no instructions are given, dispose of the
|
||
rinsate on site or at an approved waste disposal facility.
|
||
|
||
† Equivalent amounts of an alternate-strength ammonia solution or an Etigra-approved cleaner can be used in
|
||
the cleanout procedure. Carefully read and follow the individual cleaner instructions. Consult your Ag dealer,
|
||
applicator, or Etigra representative for a listing of approved cleaners.
|
||
Notes:
|
||
1. CAUTION: Do not use chlorine bleach with ammonia because dangerous gases will form. Do not
|
||
clean equipment in an enclosed area.
|
||
2. Steam-cleaning aerial spray tanks is recommended pr ior to performing the above cleanout procedure to
|
||
facilitate the removal of any caked deposits.
|
||
3. When Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide is tank mixed with other pesticides, all cleanout procedures for
|
||
each product should be examined and the most rigorous procedure should be followed.
|
||
4. In addition to this cleanout procedure, all pre-cl eanout guidelines on subsequently applied products
|
||
|
||
10
|
||
should be followed as per the individual product labels.
|
||
5. When routine spraying practices include shared equipment frequently being switched between
|
||
applications of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide and applications of other pesticides to Thifen E- AG 75
|
||
WDG Herbicide -sensitive crops during the sa me spray season, it is recommended that a
|
||
sprayer be dedicated to Thifen E-AG 75 WDG He rbicide to further reduce the chance of crop
|
||
injury.

|
||
Insecticides
|
||
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide may be tank mixed or used sequentially with
|
||
insecticides registered for use on cereal grains.
|
||
However, under certain conditions (drought stress, cold weather or if the crop is in the
|
||
2-4 leaf stage), tank mixes or sequential applications of Thifen E- AG 75 WDG
|
||
Herbicide with organophosphate insecticides (such as Lorsban®) may produce
|
||
temporary crop yellowing
|
||
or, in severe cases, crop injury. The potential for crop injury
|
||
is greatest when wide fluctuations in day/n ight temperatures occur just prior to or soon
|
||
after application. Test these mixtures in a small area before treating large areas.
|
||
NOTE: Do not apply Thifen E- AG 75 WDG Herbicide within 60 days of crop
|
||
emergence where an organophosphate insecticide has been applied as an in -furrow
|
||
treatment because crop injury may result.
|
||
Using Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide with Malathion® will result in crop injury.

Liquid
|
||
Nitrogen Solution
|
||
Fertilizer
|
||
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions may be used as a carrier in place of water. Run a
|
||
tank mix compatibility test before mixing Thifen E -AG 75 WDG Herbicide in fertilizer
|
||
solution.
|
||
Thifen E -AG 75 WDG Herbicide must first be slurried with water and then added to
|
||
liquid nitrogen solutions (e.g., 28-0-0, 32-0-0). Ensure that the agitator is running
|
||
while the Thifen E -AG 75 WDG Herbicide is added. Use of the mixture may result in
|
||
temporary crop yellowing and stunting.
|
||
If using low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer in the spray solution (less than 50% of the
|
||
spray solution volume), the addition of surfactant is necessary. Add surfactant at ½
|
||
pint-1 quart per 100 gal of spray solution (0.06- 0.25% v/v) based on local
|
||
recommendations.
|
||
When using high rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer in the spray solution, adding
|
||
surfactant increases the risk of crop injury. Consult your agricultural dealer,
|
||
consultant, fieldsman, or Etigra representative for a specific recommendation before
|
||
adding an adjuvant to these tank mixtures.
|
||
If 2,4 -D or MCPA is included with Thifen E- AG 75 WDG Herbicide and the fertilizer
|
||
mixture, ester formulations tend to be more compatible (See manufacturer's label).
|
||
Additional
|
||
surfactant may not be needed when using Thifen E- AG 75 WDG Herbicide
|
||
in tank mix with 2,4 -D ester or MCP ester and liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions.
|
||
Consult your agricultural dealer, consultant, field advisor, or Etigra representative for a
|
||
specific recommendation before adding an adjuvant to these tank mixtures.
|
||
NOTES:
|
||
In certain areas east of the Mississippi river unacceptable crop response may occur
|
||
with use of straight or dilute nitrogen fertilizer carrier solutions where cold
|
||
temperatures or widely fluctuating day I night temperatures exist. In these areas
|
||
consult your agricultural dealer, consultant , field advisor, or Etigra representative for a
|
||
specific recommendation before using nitrogen fertilizer carrier solutions.
|
||
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions that contain sulfur can increase crop response.
|
||
Do not use low rates of liquid fertilizer as a substitute for a surfactant.
|
||
Do not use with liquid fertilizer solutions with a pH less than 3.0.

for use in soybeans. However, Etigra will not warrant crop safety or weed control of Thifen E-AG 75
|
||
WDG Herbicide tank mixtures with any other pesticide or spray adjuvant except as specified in this label
|
||
or other Etigra supplemental labeling or technical bulletins.
|
||
Early season soybean injury may result from tank-mix applications with other registered herbicides. Injury
|
||
may manifest itself as stunting (seen as a reduction in leaf size or internode length), yellowing leaves
|
||
and/or red veins, and necrosis in the leaves and petioles. The potential for soybean injury is most
|
||
pronounced with applications made during hot, humid conditions, under widely fluctuating weather or
|
||
temperature conditions, or with applications to soybeans under stress.
|
||
Do not tank mix Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide with organophosphate insecticides, or apply
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide within 14 days before or after an application of an
|
||
organophosphate insecticide, as severe crop injury may occur.
|
||
Postemergence Grass Herbicides
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide may be tank mixed with postemergence grass herbicides such as
|
||
Assure® II herbicide. With postemergence grass herbicid es, surfactant rate (concentration) should be 1-2
|
||
pints per 100 gallons of spray soluti on (0.125-0.25% v/v concentration). Use of a higher rate of nonionic
|
||
surfactant, particularly under hot, humid conditions, may result in temporary crop injury. Do not use crop
|
||
oil concentrate when tank mixing Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide with postemergence grass herbicides
|
||
unless specified on other Etigra supplemental labeling. Include a nonionic surfactant with the tank mix of
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide and post grass herbicides such as Assure® II herbicide.
|
||
Glyphosate
|
||
Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide may be tank mixed with glyphosate for control of certain broadleaf weeds
|
||
in Roundup Ready® or Roundup Ready® X STS® stacked trait soybeans. For tank mixtures of Thifen E-
|
||
AG 75 WDG Herbicide plus glyphosate herbicide, always read and follow all use directions, restrictions,
|
||
and precautions on the EPA approved labels. When ta nk mixing, the most restrictive labeling applies.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
ADJUVANTS
|
||
When tank mixing Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide with glyphosate, it is recommended to add ammonium
|
||
sulfate (AMS) at 4.25-17 lb per 100 gal of spray mi xture. See the glyphosate manufacturer's label for
|
||
specific ammonium nitrogen recommendations. When velvetleaf is present, ammonium sulfate is
|
||
required at a minimum rate of 2 lb per acre.
|
||
The addition of surfactant at 0.125-0.25% v/v (1-2 pt per 100 gal spray mixture) to some Thifen E-AG 75
|
||
WDG Herbicide plus glyphosate tank mixes will improve weed control when glyphosate products are used
|
||
that do not contain built-in adjuvant systems. "Glyphosate" products differ in their adjuvant contents.
|
||
"Glyphosate" products such as Glyphomax® or Roundu p® Original allow for addition of surfactants. See
|
||
the manufacturer's specific surfactant recommendations.
|
||
SEQUENTIAL APPLICATIONS IN SOYBEANS
|
||
Before making applications of Thifen E-AG 75 WDG Herbicide to soybeans previously treated with other
|
||
