WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
Command 1.5ME, which contains the active ingredient clomazone, is a group 13 herbicide based on the mode of
action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America.
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to one or mor e
herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include the use of multiple herbicides with different sites
of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or other cultural practices. Research has demonstrated
that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for resistance.
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed resistance management program.
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should:
• Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed sizes present.
• Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
• Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches) with a burndown herbicide.
• To minimize resistance, apply full labeled rates of Command 1.5ME.
• Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
• Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
• Report any incidence of non-performance of this product agains t a particular weed to your FMC representative, local retailer, or
county extension agent.
• Contact your FMC representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this MOA have been
found in your region. If resistant biotypes of target weeds have been reported, use the application rates of this product specified for
your local conditions. Tank mix products so that there are multiple effective sites of actions for each target weed.
• If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than Group 13 and/or use nonchemical
methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production.
WĂŐĞϯŽĨϭϱ

• Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
- Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the her bicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on
adjacent weeds;
- A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
- Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is practical:
• Use a broad-spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control program.
• Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
• Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 13 herbicides.
• Avoid making more than two applications of Command 1.5ME and any other Group 13 herbicides within a single growing season
unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.
• Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, such as mech anical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and weed-free cro p
seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
• Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness.
• Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds.
• Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.

SPRAYER CLEANUP
Do not drain or flush equipment on or near des irable trees or other plants, or in areas where their roots may extend or in loca tions
where the chemical may be washed or move into contact with thei r roots. Do not contaminate any body of water including irrigation
water that may be used on other crops. Carefully follow sprayer clean-up instructions noted below to prevent spray tank residues from
damaging other crops.
Sprayer equipment needs to be thoroughly rinsed to remove residues of herbicide that might injure other subsequently sprayed crops.
The steps below need to be followed for the thorough rinsing of spray equipment following applications of Command 1.5ME herbicide
or tank mixes of Command 1.5ME with other labeled products.
1) Drain any remaining spray solution from tank, pump, hoses and boom and discard in an approved manner (See Note that follows).
2) Clean tank and fittings by:
• Thoroughly hosing down the inside walls of the spray tank with a quantity of water equal to
1/8 of the total tank capacity and
operating the pump to circulate this solution through the sprayer system for 15 minutes.
• Washing down the outside surfaces of equipment.
WĂŐĞϰŽĨϭϱ

• Removing nozzle tip and screen from end nozzle in each boom section and allowing several gallons of rinsate solution to flush
completely through boom (collect rinsate while flushing).
3) Thoroughly drain remaining rinsate solution from tank, pump and hoses. Combine with boom flushing and dispose of all rinsates
from this first rinsing in an approved manner (see Note that follows).
• When switching from water dilutions to applications utilizing crop oil or liquid fertilizer as a carrier, a small volume of c rop oil
or liquid fertilizer needs to be flushed through the tank, pump, hoses, and boom prior to the next use. Dispose of crop oil or
liquid fertilizer rinsate in an approved manner (see Note for local, state and federal guidelines).
4) Remove the remaining nozzle tips, and screens and the line filter and wash in a pail of warm soapy water, thoroughly rinse and
replace.
5) Hose down the inside walls of the spray tank a second time and circulate this solution using the same procedure as noted in #2
above.
6) If the next use of the sprayer will be for applying a preemergent or preplant incorporated pesticide on any crop for which
Command 1.5ME is registered, rinsate from this second rinsing may be utilized by diluting with the water for the next pesticide
load.
HOWEVER
If the next use of the sprayer will be a postemergence applied pest icide on any crop, drain rinsate solution from this second r insing.
Retain rinsate solution for use only with a soil incorporated pesticide to be applied on a crop for which Command 1.5ME is registered.
Refill tank (after draining second rinsate solution) in accordance with postemergence product label directions.
NOTE: Dispose of excess spray mixture and/or rinsate from first tank rinsing by application to cropland as described on this label. If
excess spray mixture and/or rinsate from first rinsing cannot be disposed of according to label instructions, dispose of in compliance
with local, state and federal guidelines. Contact your state pesticide or Environmental Control Agency or the Hazardous Waste
representative at the nearest EPA regional office for guidance.
GENERAL MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Care must be taken when mixing Command 1.5ME herbicide. Avoid mixing in areas adjacent to desirable plants (See Section headed
"IMPORTANT")
Command 1.5ME Alone: Mix Command 1.5ME with water or liquid fertil izer in the following manner: Fill the spray tank one-half to
three fourths full with water or liquid fertilizer, add the proper amount of Command 1.5ME, then add the rest of the water or l iquid
fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during mixing and application to maintain a uniform spray mixture.
Tank Mixtures: Fill spray tank one-fourth to one-third full with water; with agitator operating add the specified amount of ingredients
using the following order: dry formulations (e.g., wettable powders, dry flowables) first, liquid suspensions (e.g., flowables) next and
finally liquids (e.g., EC's). Mix thoroughly and fill tank one-half full continuing agitation. Add Command 1.5ME herbicide to tank while
maintaining agitation. Complete filling the sprayer tank with water. Where use of a surfactant is specified, add as the last ingredient to
the spray tank. Maintain agitation during filling, mixing and application. When using drift reducing agents, follow specific product label
instructions for order of addition to spray tank. It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the
intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank
mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. If
the instructions on the tank mix partner label conflict with this Command 1.5ME herbicide label, do not use in a tank mixture w ith
Command 1.5ME herbicide.
Fertilizer Spray Mixtures: Applications of Command 1.5ME alone or with tank mixtures, in Conjunction with fertilizer solutions may
beused unless use directions specifically state otherwise. Small quantities need to be tested for compatibility by the following
procedure before mixing tankful quantities.
1) Put 1 pint of fertilizer solution in a quart jar.
2) Add the appropriate amount of herbicide based on the table at the top of page 3. If more than one product is to be used, add each
separately using the following sequence: dry formulations (e.g., wettable powders, dry flowables) first, liquid suspensions (e g.,
flowables) next and finally liquids (e.g., EC's).

DEdKZz^WZzZ/&dDE'DEd͗
Ground Boom Applications:
• User must only apply with the nozzle height recommended by t he manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or
crop canopy.
• Applicators are required to use a Coarse or coarser droplet size in accordance with the most current version of the American
Society of Agricultural & Biological Engineers Standard 572 (ASAE S572).
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 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 u nfavorable
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.
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 the crop and have minimal bounce.
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. Temperatur e 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.
RESTRICTIONS
Non-target spray drift of Command 1.5ME herbicide must be avoided to prevent whitening of desirable plants. Drift is influenced by
many factors which include wind speed, spray pressure, particle size, nozzle type, and boom height. The use of an
WĂŐĞϲŽĨϭϱ

agriculturally approved drift reducing additive is advised. Follow specific product label instructions for the order of addition of all
products to the spray tank. Small quantities need to be tested for compatibility before mixing tankful quantities.
x A minimum spray volume of 10 gallons per acre is require d with appropriate nozzle types and sizes that produce coarser
sprays.
x Do not exceed 30 psi spray pressure.
x When moving spray equipment to noncontiguous sites, do not allow spray solution to spray or drip from tanks, hoses, fittings
or spray nozzles and tips.

ROTATIONAL CROPPING PRECAUTIONS
Under some conditions, temporary whitening or yellowing of leaves may occur on approved rotational crops where undesirable soil
residues of Command 1.5ME exist.
Under abnormal conditions, carryover injury to rotational crops can occur. The following factors can contribute to increased risk of
injury to rotational crops:
1) Exceeding label required rates.
2) Overapplication resulting from use of worn nozzles, excessiv e overlapping of spray swaths, failing to shut off spray booms
when turning (end row areas), or slowing or stopping sprayer.
3) Soil with pH less than or equal to 5.9.
4) Extreme dryness in the four months following application.,
5) Use of organophosphate soil insecticide followed by use of some postemergence corn herbicides.
6) Choice of rotational crop hybrid.
Additional instructions to prevent rotational crop injury may be provided in the form of service bulletins for location where risk of
injury is significantly increased due to extremely dry conditions.
Refer to Rotational Crop Guidelines and Replanting Instructions of specific crops for additional crop planting information.
SPECIAL PRECAUTION
Off-site movement of spray drift or vapors of Command 1.5ME herbicide can cause foliar whitening or yellowing of some plants.
Prior to making applications read and strictly follow all precautions and application instructions on this label.
GENERAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Ground Applications
Broadcast or Banded Applications: Apply Command 1.5ME alone or in tank mix combinations by ground equipment using a finished
spray volume of 10 to 40 gallons of water per acre. NOTE: The use of an agriculturally approved drift reducing additive is
advised. Use nozzles suitable for broadcast boom or banded application of herbicides. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift out of the
target area than fine sprays. For Command 1.5ME tank mixtures with wettable powder or dry flowable formulations, nozzle screens
and strainers need to be no finer than 50-mesh. It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for
the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels invo lved in
tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
Banded Applications-Calculate the rates and volumes required by using the following formulas:
Band width in inches
Row width in inches X Broadcast Rate Per Acre = Band rate per acre
Band width in inches
Row width in inches X Broadcast Volume Per Acre = Band volume per acre
WĂŐĞϳŽĨϭϱ

Cultivation After Planting
Soil treated with Command 1.5ME may be shallow-cultivated, rotary hoed or hand-hoed without reducing the weed control activity of
Command 1.5ME. Avoid deep cultivation which may bring untreated soil to the surface and result in poor weed control.
COMMERCIAL IMPREGNATION AND APPLICAT ION OF COMMAND 1.5ME ON DRY BULK
FERTILIZERS
Command herbicide may be impregnated on dry bulk fertilizers. When applied as directed Command/dry bulk fertilizer mixtures
provide weed control equal to that provided by the same rates of Command applied in water.
Impregnation: Apply using a minimum of 200 pounds of dry bulk fertilizer per acre and up to a maximum of 450 pounds per acre with
the specified amount of Command 1.5ME herbicide per acre. Use a closed rotary-drum mixer or a similar type of closed blender
equipped with suitable spray equipment. The spray nozzle(s) needs to be positioned to provide a uniform, fine spray pattern over the
tumbling fertilizer for thorough coverage. The physical properties of fertilizers vary, particularly in liquid absorptive capac ity. When
absorptivity is sufficient, simple spray impregnation of the fertilizer with Command provides a satisfactory, dry mixture. If the absorptive
capacity is inadequate use of a highly absorptive powder is required to provide a dry, flowable mixture. Microcel E (Johns-Manv ill
Products Corporation) is a suggested absorbent powder. General ly, less than 2% by weight of Microcel E is required. DO NOT
impregnate Command 1.5ME onto straight coated ammonium nitrate or st raight limestone because these materials will not absorb
the herbicide. Dry fertilizer blends containing mixtures of ammonium nitrate or limestone may be impregnated with Command.
The amount of Command actually required in the preparation of individual fertilizer mixtures needs to be determined carefully for each
production operation. This is necessary to ensure that the amount of pesticide actually contained in the mixture applied to the soil
represents the correct rate of use. Bulk fertilizer impregnated with Command 1.5ME herbicide needs to be applied immediately, n ot
stored. All state regulations, labeling, etc., of the mixtures are the responsibility of the seller.
For those rates not listed in the following table, calculate the amount of Command to be impregnated on a ton of dry bulk ferti lizer
using the following formula:

per acre
x PINTS of Command per acre (rate

If fertilizer materials are excessively dusty, use diesel oil or other suitable additive to reduce dust prior to impregnation a s dusty
fertilizer will result in poor distribut ion during application. Crop injury and/or poor weed control may occur where the impreg nated
fertilizer is not uniformly applied.
PRECAUTIONS FOR DRY BULK FERTILIZER IMPR EGNATION AND APPLICATION WITH COMMAND
1.5ME
• All equipment used to apply Command 1.5 ME must be thoroughly cleaned immediately following use to ensure no
contamination results which could cause inju ry to non-labeled crops or desirable vegetation. Refer to "Sprayer Cleanup"
section for additional details and disposal of rinsates.
• Equipment used to physically transport Command 1.5 ME treat ed fertilizer, including boots, augers, conveyers, bins, etc.
must be covered to prevent loss of fine particles and subjected to cleanup procedures previously described.
• Mixing of Command herbicide and dry fertilizer must be conduct ed in a blender which will ensure that airborne particles and
potential for volatilization are avoided.
• Bulk containers must be tightly covered while the product is being transported and applied to reduce chances of Command
volatilization or product loss.
Restriction: Dry Bulk Fertilizer impregnation operations using Command 1.5ME must not be conducted within ¼ mile of residential
areas or areas where Command 1.5ME symptomology on desirable vegetation would not be tolerated.

COTTON
GENERAL INFORMATION
Command 1.5ME Herbicide may be applied, as a preemergent banded or broadcast treatment in conventional tillage or conservation
tillage systems for the control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in cotton.
Do not incorporate Command 1.5 ME or use in a tank mixture with any herbicide that requires soil incorporation.
PRECAUTIONS FOR COTTON
Off-site movement of spray drift or vapors of Command® 1.5ME he rbicide can cause foliar whitening or yellowing of some plants.
Prior to making applications read and strictly follow all precautions and application instructions on the label.
Restrictions for Cotton Applications:
Completion of proper qualification training required for sale, purchase, and use.
Do not apply aerially or through irrigation equipment.
Applicators must observe all buffer restrictions.
The use of an agriculturally approved drift reducing additive is advised. Follow specific product label instructions for the order
of addition of all products to the spray tank. Small quantities need to be testes for compatibility before mixing tankful quantities.
Do not exceed 30 psi spray pressure.
Do not apply with nozzles other than flood, whirl chamber, or Raindrop® or similar tips that produce coarse sprays. Refer to n ozzle
table under SPRAY DRIFT PRECAUTIONS.
REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANTING TIME APPLICATIONS
DO NOT apply Command 1.5ME Herbicide to cotton unless either disulfoton or phorate organophosphate insecticide is applied in-
furrow with the seed at planting time at a minimum of 0.75 pound per acre of active ingredient. Do not reduce the application rate of
the organophosphate insecticide when Command 1.5ME herbicide is applied as a banded treatment. Failure to apply either disulfoton
or phorate insecticides with Command in accordance with in-furrow label use directions can result in crop phytotoxicity (bleach ing)
and/or stand reduction. Combinations of at planting systemic granular carbamate and organophosphate insecticides in conjunction
with Command may result in injury to cotton. Crop injury may occur with higher Command rates on sandy soils. Diuron must not be
used at planting when Command is used as p lant injury may result. Refer to the inse cticide product labels for appropriate in-fu rrow
application directions and maximum use rates. Monitor applicat ion equipment to ensure accurate and uniform placement of the
insecticide.
PREEMERGENT BANDED APPLICATIONS
For preemergent banded treatments, refer to the directions for banded applications in the GENERAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
section.
WĂŐĞϵŽĨϭϱ

REPLANTING INSTRUCTIONS
If the initial planting of cotton fails to produce a uniform stand, cotton may be replanted in fields treated with Command 1.5ME alone.
Do not retreat fields with a second application of Command 1.5ME. When tank mixing with a labeled product, refer to the replant
instructions for that product. Do not replant treated fields with any crop at intervals that are inconsistent with the ROTATIONAL CROP
GUIDELINES on the Command 1.5ME label. Where a tank mix is us ed, refer to the product's labels for any additional replant
instructions.
If replanting is required, follow the directions under REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANTING TIME APPLICATIONS noted above.
