ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
Carfentrazone-ethyl is very toxic to algae and moderately toxic to fish. Do not apply directly to water, to
areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the high water mark, except as specified
on this label. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash.
Fish Advisory Statement:
This product may be hazardous to aquatic organisms, particularly in clear, shallow water bodies that are
adjacent to treated areas. Transport to water by runoff or spray drift of this product in areas where surface
water is present, or intertidal areas below the mean high water mark, should be avoided. Do not
contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate.
For ground water:
Residues of this chemical have properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in
ground water. Residues of this chemical may leach into ground water if the chemical is used in areas
where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
For surface water:
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 several months or more after application. A level, well-maintained
vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as
ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of carfentrazone-ethyl residues from runoff
water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is
forecasted to occur within 48 hours.
Non-target Organism Advisory Statement:
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 minimizing spray drift.
Physical/Chemical Hazards

WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
For resistance management, AIM HERBICIDE is a Group 14 herbicide. Any weed population may contain
or develop plants naturally resistant to AIM HERBICIDE and other Group 14 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.
To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:
• Rotate the use of AIM HERBICIDE or other Group 14 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 with this product, discontinue use of this
product, and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if
available.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
AIM HERBICIDE is a water dispersible granule formulation. AIM HERBICIDE is to be mixed with water,
liquid fertilizer or mixtures of water and liquid fertilizer and adjuvants and applied to labeled crops and
non-crop areas for selective postemergence control of broadleaf weeds, for sucker control, for burndown
prior to planting, as a harvest aid and to defoliate/desiccate labeled crops.
Weed control is optimized when the product is applied to actively growing weeds. AIM HERBICIDE is a
contact herbicide. Within a few hours following application, the foliage of susceptible weeds show signs
of desiccation.
Extremes in environmental conditions e.g. temperature, moisture, soil conditions, and cultural practices
may affect the activity of AIM HERBICIDE. Herbicide symptoms may be accelerated under moist
conditions. Weed Control may be reduced when weeds are hardened off by drought and become less
susceptible to AIM HERBICIDE.
AIM HERBICIDE is rapidly absorbed through the foliage of plants. To avoid significant crop response,
applications should not be made within 6 to 8 hours of either rain or irrigation or when heavy dew is
present on the crop. Environmental conditions and certain spray tank additives may increase herbicidal
symptoms on the crop.
TANK MIXTURES (See specific crop application instructions for additional tank mixture restrictions and
information)
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.
AIM HERBICIDE may be tank-mixed with other registered herbicides for controlling broader spectrum
weeds. Refer to this and other products labels for mixing instructions, precautions, and restrictions.
Follow the most restrictive instructions for each tank mix partner. When preparing a new tank mix conduct
an appropriate compatibility test by mixing proportional amounts of all spray ingredients in a test vessel
(jar) prior to tank mixing with other products. Shake the mixture vigorously and allow it to stand for five to
ten minutes. Rapid precipitation of the ingredients and failure to re-suspend when shaken indicates that
the mixture is incompatible and should not be applied. Provided the jar test indicates the mixture to be
compatible, prepare the tank mixture as follows: Fill the tank one fourth full with water. With the agitator
operating, add the recommended amounts of ingredients using the following order: AIM HERBICIDE and
dry granules first, and liquid suspensions (flowables) second. As the agitation continues and the tank is
filled with water add emulsifiable concentrate products third followed by the addition of water soluble
products.
ADJUVANT USE REQUIREMENTS
The use of a quality spray adjuvant is required for optimum performance. Refer to the individual crop
sections of this label for specific adjuvant type and use rates.
ON-FARM TESTING
Not all varieties or cultivars of labeled crops have been fully evaluated under all environmental and soil
conditions. Consult with your local seed company for additional information. It may also be beneficial to
conduct small on-farm trials under actual conditions with specific varieties or cultivars before treating
large acreage.
MIXING INFORMATION
Mixing and Loading Instructions
Fill the spray tank 3/4 full with clean water. Make sure the agitation system is operating while adding
products. Prepare a slurry of AIM HERBICIDE in a clean container using clean water. Slowly add the AIM
HERBICIDE/water slurry. Carefully rinse the slurry container adding the rinsate to the spray tank.
Complete filling the spray tank to the desired level. The spray tank agitation should be sufficient to ensure
uniform spray mixture during application and must continue until the spray tank has been emptied. Follow
your local extension guidelines for mixing order of products. In spray tank add dry products first, agitate,
6
water emulsions or water soluble liquids next, emulsifiable concentrates, and then adjuvants last. Ensure
the compatibility of other products and/or liquid fertilizers with AIM HERBICIDE before mixing them
together in the spray tank.
Mixing Precautions
Avoid the overnight storage of AIM HERBICIDE spray mixtures. If spray solution is stored overnight or
longer, thoroughly agitate spray mixture before applying the solution. Premixing AIM HERBICIDE spray
solutions in nurse tanks is not recommended. Maintain continuous and adequate spray solution agitation
until all the spray solution has been used. Do not use with tank additives that alter the pH of the spray
solution below pH 5 or above pH 8. Buffer spray solution to alter the pH range as appropriate.
SPRAY EQUIPMENT CLEAN-OUT
Many new pesticides are very active at low rates, especially to sensitive crops. Residues left in
mixing equipment, spray tanks, hoses, spray booms and nozzles can cause crop effects if they are not
properly cleaned. As soon as possible after spraying AIM HERBICIDE and before using the sprayer
equipment for any other applications, the sprayer equipment must be thoroughly cleaned using the
following procedure. In addition, users must take appropriate steps to ensure proper equipment clean-
out for any other products mixed with AIM HERBICIDE as required on the other product labels. More
complete cleaning can be achieved if the spray system is cleaned immediately following the application.
1. Drain sprayer tank, hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles. Use a high-pressure detergent wash to
remove physical sediment and residues from the inside of the sprayer tank and thoroughly rinse. Then,
thoroughly flush sprayer hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles with a clean water rinse. Remove and
clean spray tips and all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tips) separately in the ammonia
solution of Step 2.
2. Next, prepare a sprayer cleaning solution by adding three gallons of ammonia (containing at least 3%
active) per 100 gallons of clean water. Prepare sufficient cleaning solution to allow the operation of the
spray system for a minimum of 15 minutes to thoroughly flush hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles.
3. Convenient and thorough cleaning of the sprayer can be achieved if the ammonia solution or fresh
water is left in the spray tank, hoses, spray booms and spray nozzles overnight or during storage.
4. Before using the sprayer, completely drain the sprayer system. Rinse the tank with clean water and
flush through the hoses, spray boom, and spray nozzles with clean water.
5. Properly dispose of all cleaning solution and rinsate in accordance with Federal, State, and local
regulations and guidelines.
Do not apply sprayer cleaning solutions or rinsate to sensitive crops.
Do not store the sprayer overnight or for any extended period of time with AIM HERBICIDE spray solution
remaining in the tank, spray lines, spray boom plumbing, spray nozzles or strainers.
If the sprayer has been stored or idle, purge the spray boom and nozzles with clean water before
beginning any application.
Should small quantities of AIM HERBICIDE remain in inadequately cleaned mixing, loading and/or spray
equipment, they may be released during subsequent applications potentially causing effects to certain
crops and other vegetation. FMC accepts no liability for any effects due to inadequately cleaned
equipment.

APPLICATION METHODS
GROUND APPLICATION
Use ground sprayers designed, calibrated and operated to deliver uniform spray droplets to the targeted
plant or plant parts. Adjust sprayer nozzles to achieve uniform plant coverage. Overlaps and slower
ground speeds (caused by continuing to spray while starting, stopping or turning) may result in higher
application rates and possible crop response.
Spray Buffer for Ground Application
Spray buffer zones for ground applications, listed in chart below, are required near desirable perennial
vegetation or crops before blossom and after total leaf drop, and/or near other desirable or annual crops.

Low Spray Boom
Buffer (ft.)
High Spray Boom
Buffer (ft.)
0.024 20 33
0.031 26 46
Broadcast Boom Sprayers
Use a broadcast boom sprayer equipped with the appropriate nozzles, spray tips and screens and
adjusted to provide optimum spray distribution and coverage at the appropriate operating pressures. Use
nozzles that produce minimal amounts of fine spray droplets. Do not exceed 30 psi spray pressure unless
otherwise required by the manufacturer of drift reducing nozzles. Apply a minimum of 10 gallons of
finished spray per acre. Use higher spray volumes when there is a dense weed population or crop canopy.
Adjust sprayers to position spray tips no lower than 12-18 inches above the crop or weed canopy
depending on the nozzle specification. Operate the sprayer to avoid the application of high herbicide rates
directly over the rows or into the whorl of treated crop plants.
Directed Sprayers
For directed sprayers apply AIM Herbicide with drop nozzles or other post directed spray equipment.
Post-Directed Applications
Post-directed applications may be utilized when labeled crops have reached minimum growth stages
where sprays may be directed to the target weeds, but is not deposited on the green stem, foliage, blooms
or fruit of the crop. Do not apply when conditions favor drift or when wind speed is above 10 miles per
hour.
Use drop nozzles or other spray equipment capable of directing the spray to target weeds and away from
sensitive plant parts. Apply when labeled crops have reached minimum growth stages described in
specific crop sections of this label and when spray will not be deposited on green stems, foliage, blossoms
or fruit.
Hooded Sprayers
To apply AIM Herbicide using a hooded sprayer, refer to the Hooded Sprayer Section for specific
adjustment and operation instructions. For additional information, refer to the individual crop sections of
this label.
Hand-Held or High Volume Gun Sprayers
AIM Herbicide may be applied with hand operated sprayers such as backpack sprayers, compression
sprayers, knapsack sprayers, or high volume orchard gun sprayers. Directed applications may be utilized
when labeled crops have reached minimum growth stages where sprays may be directed to the target
weeds, but is not deposited on the green stem, foliage, blooms or fruit of the crop.
AERIAL APPLICATION
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum coverage while producing a minimal
amount of fine droplets. Apply at a minimum of 3 gallons of finished spray per acre. Spray volumes greater
8
than 3 gallons per acre may be needed for harvest aid and defoliation treatments, or for dense weed
populations or with dense crop canopies.
For Aerial Application in California:
Refer to individual crop sections to see if AIM HERBICIDE application is permitted by air
For applications near desirable perennial vegetation or crops before blossom and after total leaf drop,
and/or near other desirable or annual crops:
-Do not apply within 100 feet of all desirable vegetation or crops.
-If wind up to 10 miles per hour is blowing toward desirable vegetation or crops, do not apply within 500
feet of the desirable vegetation or crops.
-Do not apply when winds are in excess of 10 mph or when inversion conditions exist.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
APPLICATOR AND THE GROWER.
Carfentrazone-ethyl is a contact PPO (protoporphyrinogen oxidase) herbicide. Avoid any drift conditions
that would allow the product to contact desirable vegetation. AIM HERBICIDE is not volatile, however;
mist from spray drift may cause injury to sensitive plants.
The interaction of equipment and weather related fa ctors determine the potential for spray drift. The
applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions.
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target movement from
applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications, public
health uses or to applications of dry materials. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must
be observed.
Information on droplet size
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The optimum drift management
strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger
droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift when applications are made improperly, or under
unfavorable environmental conditions (See Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature
Inversions).
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate
carriers.
For all non-aerial applications, wind speed must be measured adjacent to the application site, on the
upwind side, immediately prior to application.
Controlling Spray Droplet Size
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher
rated flows usually produce larger droplets.
Pressure - Do not use pressures greater than that specified by the nozzle manufacturer. For many nozzle
types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate
nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Orientation For aerial application, orient nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the
airstream. A parallel orientation results in larger droplets than other orientations and reduces air
turbulence and the production of small droplets. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet
size and increase drift potential.
9
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types,
narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low drift nozzles. For aerial applications,
solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and potentially the least drift.
Boom Length - For some aerial use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the
wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
Application Height Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of spray
droplets to evaporation and wind movement. Aerial applications should not be made at a height greater
than 10 feet above the top of the target plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety.
Swath Adjustment - Swath adjustment distance must increase, with increasing drift potential (higher
wind, smaller drops, etc.).
Wind - Drift potential is lowest between winds speeds of 3 to 10 mph. However, many factors, including
droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. Applications shall be
avoided below 3 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. Do not apply AIM
HERBICIDE when wind speed exceeds 10 mph. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
applicator shall be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.
Temperature and Humidity - When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to
produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when
conditions are both hot and dry.
Temperature Inversions Do not apply AIM HERBICIDE during a temperature inversion because the
drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended
droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the
light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They
begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the following morning. Their presence can be
indicated by ground fog. However, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified 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.
Shielded Sprayers - Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the effects of wind. However,
it is the responsibility of the applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift and not interfering with
uniform deposition of the product.
Sensitive Areas AIM HERBICIDE shall only be applied when the wind is blowing away from adjacent
sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitats for threatened or endangered
species and non-target crops).

AGRICULTURE FARM AND FARMSTEAD USE NON-CROP
Timing and Method of Application
AIM HERBICIDE may be used for broadleaf weed control on farms and farmsteads in areas outside of
crop growing areas. See Weed Control (Table 3) to determine the proper rate for areas such as grass
waterways, field edges, terraces, equipment storage areas, shelter belts, fence lines, farm buildings, dry
ditch, canal banks etc. AIM HERBICIDE is a contact herbicide and coverage is essential for weed control.
AIM HERBICIDE will control emerged weeds only. Weeds that germinate after application will require
repeat treatments.
Precautions
Extreme caution must be used to avoid contact with desirable vegetation. Do not spray or allow spray
mist of AIM HERBICIDE to come in contact with green stem tissue, foliage, blooms or desirable fruit.
BOOM EQUIPMENT
Apply AIM HERBICIDE at up to 1.2 oz/A (0.031 lb ai/A).
Adjuvant Requirements for boom equipment
A nonionic surfactant, crop oil concentrate or methylated seed oil is required. Use a nonionic surfactant
(NIS) at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray solution) having at least 80% active ingredient or a
petroleum or oil seed based crop oil concentrate (COC) at 1.5 to 2 % v/v (1.5 to 2.0 gallons per 100
gallons of spray solution) or a methylated seed oil (MSO). A high quality sprayable liquid nitrogen fertilizer
at 2 to 4 % v/v (2 to 4 gallons per 100 gallons) or ammonium sulfate at 2 to 4 pounds per acre in addition
to the selected NIS, MSO or COC is allowed.
Tank Mixes for boom equipment
AIM HERBICIDE may be mixed with other labeled herbicides for this method of application in non-crop
areas for broader spectrum weed control.
See Mixing and Loading Instructions for specific mixing instructions. Refer to this and the tank mix partner
labels for mixing instructions, precautions, and restrictions. Follow the most restrictive instructions for
each tank-mix partner.
SPOT TREATMENTS (Applications with hand operated sprayer such as backpack sprayers,
compression sprayers, knapsack sprayers.)
Mix the amount of AIM HERBICIDE for the desired percent spray solution from the table below. These
mixtures are based on 1 gallon of solution evenly covering 1000 square feet. Applications should be made
on a spray-to-wet basis. Spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray to runoff. See
Table 4 for weeds controlled at specific concentrations. Use lower concentrations for small seedling
weeds at the 2-3 leaf stage. Higher concentrations are needed for larger weeds up to the 6-leaf stage.
Applications beyond the 6-leaf stage may result in only partial control. AIM Herbicide may be mixed with
other labeled herbicides e.g. glyphosate, glufosinate, and paraquat for broader spectrum weed control.

Adjuvant Requirements for spot treatments
A nonionic surfactant (NIS), methylated seed oil (MSO) or crop oil concentrate (COC) is required. Use a
nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v having at least 80% active ingredient, or a methylated seed oil
(MSO), or crop oil concentrate (COC) (petroleum or seed oil) at 1 to 2% v/v. A high quality sprayable
liquid nitrogen fertilizer at 2 to 4 % v/v or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 0.75 to 1.5 ounces per
gallon in addition to the nonionic surfactant methylated seed oil or crop oil is allowed.

PREPLANT BURNDOWN
Apply AIM HERBICIDE alone or with other herbicides or liquid fertilizers as a burn-down treatment to
control or suppress weeds. AIM Herbicide is effective as a burndown treatment for crops prior to new
plantings. Apply AIM HERBICIDE up to 1.2 dry oz/A (0.030 lb ai/A). Do not exceed the applicable amounts
as listed for the specific crop in the MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE AIM Herbicide USE in Table 1. For optimum
performance, make applications to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches high or rosettes less than 3
inches across. Coverage is essential for good control. Optimum broad-spectrum control of annual and
perennial weeds requires a tank mix with a labeled burndown herbicides e.g. glyphosate, glufosinate,
paraquat, 2,4-D, or dicamba.

HOODED SPRAYER APPLICATIONS
Apply AIM HERBICIDE to the row middles of the following emerged crops using hooded sprayers to
control labeled weeds between the rows of the below listed emerged crops. This treatment is for crops
grown in rows, and includes crops grown in rows where mulch or plastic barriers are used as a weed
control tool in the drill or plant line.
Hooded sprayers must be designed, adjusted and operated in such a manner to totally enclose
the spray pattern and to prevent any spray deposition to green stem tissue, foliage, blooms or
fruit of the crop.
Sprayers shall not be operated at more than five (5) miles per hour in order to minimize vertical movement
of the sprayer during application, including the bouncing or raising of the equipment. Use extreme care
in applying to fields where the soil surface is uneven, has deep furrows, drains or other contours that
would disturb the adjustment and positioning of the spray equipment and/or the spray pattern.
Applications must not be made when wind conditions may disturb the spray patterns and result in spray
deposition to sensitive plants or plant parts.
For optimum performance, make application to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches tall and rosettes
less than 3 inches across. Coverage is essential for good control.
Crops Labeled for Use with Hooded Sprayers:
Hooded Spray application can be used for all crops listed on this AIM Herbicide label.

Postemerge Weed Control Treatment
Dormant Season (Fall or Winter Application Postemerge on Weeds)
AIM HERBICIDE may be applied on dormant crop stubble alone or in combination with other registered
herbicides for the post emergence control of weeds in established nongrass animal feed stands during the
dormant season (between growing seasons). To control insect pests, AIM HERBICIDE may be tank mixed
with insecticides, including Mustang Maxx.
Between Cutting In-Season Application (Spring/Summer Applications Postemerge on Weeds)
AIM HERBICIDE may be applied alone or in combination with other registered herbicides between cuttings
(in-season) for the post emergence control of weeds in established crop stands. In-season applications
should be made as soon as possible after removal of the previous hay crop and prior to significant regrowth
on stems and crowns. Applications may be made from hay removal up to 6 inches of new growth. To control
insect pests, AIM HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with insecticides, including Mustang Maxx.
AIM HERBICIDE Use Rates - Postemerge
For optimum results, weeds should be treated when small. Applications should be made in spray volumes
sufficient to provide complete coverage of foliage. Use a minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre for
ground application equipment, and a minimum of 3 gallons per acre of finished spray for aerial equipment.
For optimum results, apply AIM HERBICIDE to weeds up to 4 inches tall and rosettes less than 3 inches
across. Use a quality nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray solution) having
at least 80% active ingredient. For more active treatments, use a Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) at 0.5 to 1.0%
v/v (one half to one gallon per 100 gallons). Some temporary leaf speckling and necrosis may occur on green
alfalfa or clover tissue present with between cutting applications, which should be rapidly outgrown under
good growing conditions. Adjuvant selection and high moisture environmental conditions will enhance this
effect. A high quality sprayable liquid nitrogen fertilizer at 2 to 4 % v/v (2 to 4 gallons per 100 gallons spray
solution) or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 2 to 4 pounds per acre in addition to the nonionic surfactant
methylated seed oil or crop oil is allowed. Coverage is essential for satisfactory performance. Repeat
application if necessary. Do not irrigate just prior to or just after application. Weed control under dry and hot
conditions will be improved with COC or similar products.

Directions for Use:
Postemerge Weed Control Treatment
Apply AIM HERBICIDE alone or as a tank mixture with other herbicides to emerged and actively growing
weeds. Apply to corn in all tillage syst ems from prior to planting up to 14-leaf collar growth stage. When
applying Aim Herbicide to corn greater than V8 stage, utilize drop nozzles aligned between the rows with
directed application to reduce contact with the corn foliage and improve contact with the weeds. See Directed
Applications section below). For optimum performance, make application to actively growing weeds up to 4
inches high and rosettes less than 3 inches across. Coverage is essential for good control.
Adjuvant Requirements:
Use a non-ionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray solution). Under dry conditions,
the use of a crop oil concentrate (COC) at 1.0% v/v may improve weed control. The use of crop oil concentrate
can increase leaf speckling and crop response on treated corn leaves.
For specific mixing instructions, refer to the Mixing and Loading Instructions under the PRODUCT
INFORMATION section.
Refer to the other products label for restrictions on tank mixing, and observe all label precautions, instructions,
and rotational cropping restrictions. Adjust sprayers to position spray tips no lower than 18 inches above the
crop. Operate the sprayer to avoid the application of high herbicide rates directly over the rows and/or into the
whorl of the corn plant. Overlaps and slower ground speeds (caused by continuing to spray while starting,
stopping or turning) may result in higher application rates and possible crop response.
Broadcast Applications:
Use AIM HERBICIDE at 0.3 to 0.6 dry oz/A (0.008 to 0.16 lb ai/A). Use higher rates when weeds are under
stress or are larger.
Applications shall be made by ground equipment using a minimum finished spray volume of 10 gallons of
spray per acre or by air at a minimum finished spray volume of 3 gallons of spray per acre.
Refer to weed control list in Table 3 for appropriate weed control information.
Tank Mix (See Tank Mixtures for additional tank mixture requirements)
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

For the control of additional or certain larger weeds up to 6 inches tall, Atrazine may be added to the tank
mixtures of AIM HERBICIDE plus dicamba or AIM HERBICIDE plus 2,4-D (amine).
Add 2,4-D (amine) to the tank mix at 0.125 to 0.25 lb ai/A or dicamba at 3 to 8 fl oz/A. Higher rates of atrazine
and dicamba herbicides are allowed, but do not exceed the specific label use rates allowed by these labels.
Add a 0.25% v/v nonionic surfactant (2 pints per 100 gallons) to the tank mixture. Under very dry soil moisture
conditions, the use of crop oil concentrate at 1% v/v (1 gallon per 100 gallon spray solution) may improve
weed control. The use of crop oil concentrate may increase leaf speckling. Refer to the Tank Mixture section
for information on potential leaf injury.
For control of the following weeds up to 6 inches in height, or as specified, add dicamba at 3 to 8 fl
oz/A to AIM HERBICIDE tank mixes with atrazine or to AIM HERBICIDE tank mixes with other products
that allow the use of dicamba on their labels:

Morningglory spp. Ragweed, giant (up to 4 inches tall)
Directed Spray Applications:
Apply AIM HERBICIDE with drop nozzles between the rows to the target weeds and away from the whorl of
the corn plant. Directed spray applications should be used when corn is V8 to V14 stage. Apply AIM
HERBICIDE up to 1.24 dry oz/A (0.031 lb ai/A). Rates above 0.3 dry oz/A will aid in control of larger weeds
as listed under Weed Control (Table 3). Be aware that weeds growing in and under the dense canopies may
not receive adequate spray coverage and may require the use of higher spray volumes for acceptable control.
Use appropriate rates of adjuvants such as non-ionic surfactant (NIS), crop oil concentrate (COC), or
methylated seed oil (MSO).
Hooded Sprayer Applications:
Apply AIM HERBICIDE with hooded sprayers to control labeled weeds between the rows of the crop. Refer
to the Hooded Sprayer Applications section of this label for additional specific use directions.
29
Harvest Aid:
Apply 0.6 to 1.24 dry oz/A AIM , but not to exceed maximum labeled rates. Refer to the MAXIMUM
ALLOWABLE AIM USE RATE and the PREHARVEST INTERVAL Table (Table 2) for additional application
information. If treatments of AIM have been made to the crop earlier, that volume must be considered in
determining the maximum use rate as a harvest aid treatment.
Applications shall be made in spray volumes sufficient to provide complete coverage of foliage. Use a
minimum of 15 gallons of finished spray per acre for ground application and 5 gallons per acre for aerial
application. A methylated seed oil (MSO) or crop oil concentrate (COC) is required. Use methylated seed oil,
or crop oil concentrate (COC) (petroleum or seed oil) at 1 to 2% v/v (1 to 2 gallons per 100 gallons of spray
solution). A high quality sprayable liquid nitrogen fertilizer at 2 to 4 % v/v (2 to 4 gallons per 100 gallons spray
solution) or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 2 to 4 pounds per acre in addition to the methylated seed
oil or crop oil is allowed.
Coverage is essential for satisfactory performance.
Seed Corn Production:
For seed production fields, apply AIM HERBICIDE using drop nozzles or other equipment to make a directed
spray treatment. Avoid directing spray solution into the whorl.
Seed corn inbred lines have generally shown good tolerance to AIM HERBICIDE. However, all inbred lines
have not been tested. Broadcast applications may result in spray being concentrated into the whorl of the
plant that will increase leaf response. To minimize application into the whorl of the plants, drop nozzles or
other type directed sprayers must be used to direct the spray to the targeted weeds.
Sweet Corn Precaution:
When applying AIM HERBICIDE to sweet corn; broadcast applications may result in spray being concentrated
into the whorl of the plant that will increase leaf response. To minimize application into the whorl of the plants,
drop nozzles or other type directed sprayers must be used to direct the spray to the targeted weeds.
Use only NIS as the spray adjuvant in sweet corn applications.
Application Precautions:
Leaf speckling can occur when AIM HERBICIDE is used with certain crop protection products and adjuvants.
Refer to the Tank Mixtures and Adjuvants requir ements sections under PRODUCT INFORMATION.
Bromoxynil mixtures and bentazon mixtures may cause significant crop response when in contact with crop
foliage.
Crop Response
The application of AIM HERBICIDE to corn may result in temporary crop response such as speckling or
necrosis of the leaves. Grain yields will not be affected. Do not make applications when air temperatures are
abnormally cool or humidity is high or if the corn foliage is wet from dew, rainfall or irrigation. Users should be
aware of these inherent risks and accept these risks prior to application of AIM HERBICIDE.
For additional information regarding potential crop response, refer to the PRODUCT INFORMATION section
of the AIM HERBICIDE label.

prevent contact of spray solution with the cotton plant. Do not allow spray solution to contact cotton foliage,
green stem tissue, or blooms. Directed spray equipment must position nozzles a minimum 3 to 4 inches above
the soil, with nozzles directed beneath the crop canopy. AIM HERBICIDE or AIM HERBICIDE tank mix
applications shall be made to cotton that is a minimum of 6 inches in height. Applications to cotton at 5 to 6
nodes or less must be made with hooded or shielded sprayer equipment to completely avoid contact with
cotton plants. Apply lay-by applications of AIM HERBICIDE or AIM HERBICIDE tank mixtures at later growth
stages of cotton when cotton plants have achieved a height of 12 inches or more with sufficient bark
development and height differential between crop bottom leaves and the soil. Spray solution shall be directed
at the base of cotton plants for minimal contact with green stem tissue or foliage while maintaining maximum
contact with broadleaf weeds that are at appropriate treatment size.
31
Do not apply when conditions favoring drift exist or wind is above 10 miles per hour.
For optimum performance, make application to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches tall and rosettes less
than 3 inches across. Coverage is essential for good control.
Adjuvant Recommendation
A nonionic surfactant (NIS), methylated seed oil (MSO) or crop oil concentrate (COC) is required. Use a
nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray solution) having at least 80% active
ingredient, or a methylated seed oil, or crop oil concentrate (COC) (petroleum or seed oil) at 1 to 2 v/v (1 to 2
gallons per 100 gallons of spray solution). A high quality sprayable liquid nitrogen fertilizer at 2 to 4 % v/v (2
to 4 gallons per 100 gallons spray solution) or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 2 to 4 lb/A in addition
to the nonionic surfactant methylated seed oil or crop oil is allowed.
AIM HERBICIDE Use Rates and Weeds Controlled
Apply up to 1.0 dry oz/A (0.025 lb ai/A) AIM HERBICIDE as a post-directed treatment using a directed sprayer,
hooded sprayer or lay-by sprayer delivering a minimum finished spray volume of 10 gallons per acre. Do not
apply more than 2 dry oz/A (0.05 lb ai/A) AIM HERBICIDE per season by post-directed and lay-by applications.
Refer to weed control list in Table 3 for appropriate weed control information.
For control of additional broadleaf weeds and grasses, AIM HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with other
herbicides registered for cotton post-directed and/or lay-by applications. Refer to the other products label for
restrictions on tank mixing, and observe all label precautions, instructions and rotational cropping restrictions.
Managed Maturity Application for Cotton
Apply AIM HERBICIDE as an aid to remove undesirable top growth and reduce unproductive terminal growth.
Use alone or as a tank mixture with other cotton insecticides and herbicides. Read all product labels and
follow all directions and precautions when tank mixing with this product.
Timing
Apply AIM HERBICIDE when cotton is actively growing and the plants have 1% to 20% open bolls; with
applications at 15% open bolls being optimum. When using the Cotman monitoring program, apply AIM at
NAWF5, plus 450 650 heat units. Avoid Managed Maturity treatments to fields, or areas of fields, that are
stressed.
AIM HERBICIDE Use Rates Manage Maturity
Apply AIM HERBICIDE as a broadcast spray at 0.15 dry oz/A (0.004 lb ai/A) to 0.3 dry oz/A (0.008 lb ai/A),
targeting 0.22 dry oz/A (0.006 lb ai/A) in spray volume adequate to obtain upper canopy coverage of the plant
foliage. In situations of extremely lush growth, apply up to 0.3 dry oz/A (0.008 lb ai/A). Make applications using
a minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre for ground application and a minimum of 5 gallons per
acre by air. Good upper canopy coverage is essential for optimum performance.
Use a quality crop oil concentrate (COC) at the recommended rate of 1% v/v.
Defoliation / Harvest Aid Application
Apply AIM HERBICIDE as a harvest aid to defoliate and desiccate cotton and troublesome weeds that may
be present at harvest. Apply AIM HERBICIDE alone or as a tank mixture with other cotton harvest aids.
Use a quality spray adjuvant e.g. nonionic surfactant (NIS) or crop oil concentrate (COC) at the labeled rates.
Use NIS adjuvants during warmer periods with COC being the better choice for applications during cooler
periods.
Make application when 60 to 70 percent of the bolls are open, or according to the State Agricultural Extension
Service guidelines in the use area.
Apply up to 1.24 dry oz/A AIM HERBICIDE (0.031 lb ai/A) in spray volume sufficient to provide complete
coverage of cotton foliage. Use a minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre for ground application and
5 gallons per acre for aerial application. Coverage is essential for good defoliation. Repeat application if
necessary to remove remaining foliage or control regrowth. Do not apply more than 2.0 dry oz/A (0.05 lb ai/A)
total as a harvest aid. Dense cotton canopy, large plant size, and environmental conditions not conducive to
complete plant coverage may reduce initial application performance and increase the need for a second
application.

AIM HERBICIDE may be applied for postemergence weed control or for sucker control.
Weed Control
Apply AIM HERBICIDE alone or as a tank mixture with other herbicides as a postemergence directed spray
treatment or as a hooded spray treatment to control emerged and actively growing weeds. Apply AIM
HERBICIDE to middles (between rows of plants) and in strips (in row of plants). Apply AIM HERBICIDE at
any time during the season (see precautions). AIM HERBICIDE may be mixed with other herbicides that have
pre-emergence or post-emergence activity. Any pre-emergence activity must rely on activity from other
herbicides as directed on their labels. Herbicides such as glyphosate may be tank mixed with AIM
HERBICIDE for broader spectrum weed control. If AIM HERBICIDE is used in a tank mixture, observe the
other products label for restrictions, precautions and rotational cropping instructions.
Sucker Management
AIM HERBICIDE is effective as an aid in the management of undesirable sucker growth from the base of
vine trunks or root sprouts. Suckers and other undesirable growth must be treated when the tissue is young
and not mature and/or hardened off. Care must be taken not to allow spray mist to contact desirable fruit or
foliage or green stem tissue (see precautions). Application of AIM HERBICIDE with other sucker control
herbicides is allowed.
Hooded Sprayer Applications
Apply AIM HERBICIDE with hooded sprayers to control labeled weeds between the rows of the crop. Refer
to the Hooded Sprayer Applications section of this label for additional specific use directions.
Equipment and Application
Coverage is essential for good control. Use a spray volume adequate to obtain thorough coverage with a
minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre. Apply only with ground equipment. Apply AIM HERBICIDE
with hooded sprayers, boom equipment, shielded sprayers, hand-held and high-volume wands or orchard
guns. Always add AIM HERBICIDE to the spray tank first. See “Mixing and Loading Instructions” under
PRODUCT INFORMATION.
Adjuvant Requirements
Control is enhanced with the addition of a nonionic surfactant (NIS) or crop oil concentrate (COC). Use a
quality nonionic surfactant (NIS) containing at least 80% active at 0.25% v/v (2 pints NIS per 100 gallons) or
a crop oil concentrate (COC) at 1% v/v (one gallon COC per 100 gallons), or a methylated seed oil (MSO).
The use of a high quality sprayable liquid nitrogen fertilizer at 2 to 4 % v/v or ammonium sulfate (AMS) used
at 2 to 4 lb/A in addition to the NIS, or MSO or COC is allowed.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
Different production systems dictate different application techniques. Skirted trees are those allowing the
lower branches of the trees to grow to the ground line. Non-skirted trees are grown in production
systems where branches are pruned allowing access to the trunk area.
Equipment and Application
Skirted Orchards and Groves
Hooded sprayers are required for AIM HERBICIDE applications in skirted trees. Refer to the HOODED
SPRAYER APPLICATIONS section of this label.
Non-Skirted Orchards and Groves
Apply only by ground equipment such as boom sprayers, shielded or hooded sprayers, hand-held or high-
volume wands or orchard guns. Use a minimum of 20 gallons finished spray solution per broadcast acre.
Weed Control
Apply AIM HERBICIDE alone or as a tank mix with other registered herbicides to actively growing weeds.
AIM HERBICIDE is a contact herbicide and coverage is essential for good weed control. Use a minimum of
20 gallons finished spray solution per broadcast acre.
Do not allow AIM HERBICIDE spray solution to contact green stem tissue, leaves, fruit or blooms of trees.
AIM HERBICIDE Application Rates
Apply AIM HERBICIDE up to 1.24 dry oz/A. (0.031 lb ai/A) for postemergence control of susceptible broadleaf
weeds. Refer to weed control list in Table 3 for appropriate weed control information. For best control, apply
to seedling weeds in the 2 to 3-leaf stage. For larger weeds up to 6 leaves, use higher labeled rates of AIM
HERBICIDE. Weeds greater than 6 leaves may be only partially controlled.
Adjuvant Requirements
Control is enhanced with the addition of a nonionic surfactant (NIS) or crop oil concentrate (COC). Use a
nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v (2 pints NIS per 100 gallons) or a crop oil concentrate at 1% v/v
(one gallon COC per 100 gallons). AIM HERBICIDE may also be applied with labeled rates of MSO or silicone
adjuvants.
Tank Mix (See Tank Mixtures for additional tank mixture requirements)
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

AIM HERBICIDE may be utilized in Fallow Cropping Systems for chemical weed control to aid in moisture
conservation between cropping periods.
61
Preplant Burndown
Apply AIM HERBICIDE alone or with other herbicides or liquid fertilizers as a burn-down treatment to control
or suppress weeds. AIM HERBICIDE is effective as a burndown treatment for crops prior to new plantings.
Do not exceed the applicable amounts as listed for the specific crop in the MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE AIM
HERBICIDE USE in Table 1. For optimum performance, make applications to actively growing weeds up to 4
inches high or rosettes less than 3 inches across. Coverage is essential for good control. Optimum broad-
spectrum control of annual and perennial weeds requires a tank mix with a labeled burndown herbicides such
as glyphosate, glufosinate, paraquat, 2,4-D, or dicamba.
Harvest Aid Desiccation Application
Apply AIM HERBICIDE foliar to potatoes in the later stages of senescence for desiccation of potato foliage
and vines. AIM HERBICIDE will also desiccate late season susceptible broadleaf weeds to aid in tuber
harvest. Adequate desiccation is achieved within 14 days after the initial treatment is applied. If the potato
crop is in the active vegetative growth stage when desiccation is initiated, two applications may be required
to provide desiccation of leaf and stem tissue. Dense potato canopy, large plant size and environmental
conditions not conducive to product absorption or activity will reduce initial application efficacy and increase
the need for a second application. If a second application is necessary, apply at 7 to 14 days after the first
application. Thorough coverage of the potato plant to be desiccated is essential. Use a sufficient volume
of water to obtain thorough coverage of the potato leaves and vines.
Ground Application
Apply AIM HERBICIDE in at least 20 gallons of water per acre. Vary the spray volume and spray pressure as
indicated by the density of the potato canopy and vines to assure thorough spray coverage. Increase the
spray volume and pressure if the potato canopy is dense or under cool, cloudy or dry conditions. Increased
spray volumes will enhance performance.
Aerial Application
Apply AIM HERBICIDE with aerial equipment using 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre, using higher volumes
when potato canopies and vines are dense. Adjust the nozzles to provide a uniform pattern and a droplet size
of 350 to 450 microns.
Adjuvant Requirements
A nonionic surfactant (NIS), methylated seed oil (MSO), or crop oil concentrate (COC) or other suitable
surfactant mixture is required. Use a nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray
solution) having at least 80% active ingredient, or a methylated seed oil, or crop oil concentrate (COC)
(petroleum or seed oil) at 1 to 2 v/v (1 to 2 gallons per 100 gallons of spray solution. The use of a high quality
sprayable liquid nitrogen fertilizer at 2 to 4 % v/v (2 to 4 gallons per 100 gallons spray solution) or ammonium
sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 2 to 4 pounds per acre in addition to the nonionic surfactant methylated seed oil
or crop oil is allowed.
Adjuvant rates should increase as spray volumes exceed 20 gallons per acre.
