|
||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide is a suspension concentrate used at the rate of 1.5 ounces per
|
||
acre for selective postemergence grass and broadleaf weed control in field corn. SOLIDA
|
||
GRANDE should be shaken well before use. Do not apply to field corn grown for seed, to
|
||
popcorn or to sweet corn. Do not make more than one application of SOLIDA GRANDE
|
||
Herbicide per cropping season. Do not apply aerially iii California or New York State.
|
||
WHEN TO APPLY
|
||
TIMING TO CROP STAGE
|
||
Apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide to corn that is up to 20 inches tall and exhibiting up to and
|
||
including 6 leaf-collars. Do not apply to corn taller than 20 inches or exhibiting more than 6 leaf
|
||
collars, whichever is more restrictive. Some State and corn hybrid restrictions apply (see below).
|
||
Not all SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide tank mixtures may be applied to corn that is beyond 12" tall.
|
||
Consult TANK MIX APPLICATIONS for more information. While SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide
|
||
has a wide application window, research has shown best results are obtained when applications
|
||
are made early postemergence when corn and weeds are small. Target applications to corn that
|
||
is less than 12" tall for best overall performance. .
|
||
Apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide to field corn hybrids with a relative maturity (RM) rating of 77
|
||
days or more, including "food grade" (yellow dent, hard endosperm), waxy and oil corn. Not all
|
||
field corn hybrids of less than 77 days RM, not all white corn hybrids nor Hi-Lysine hybrids have
|
||
been tested for crop safety, nor does Cheminova have access to all seed company data.
|
||
Consequently, injury arising from the use of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide on these types of corn
|
||
is the responsibility of the user. Consult with your seed supplier before applying SOLIDA
|
||
GRANDE Herbicide to any of these corn types. Applications of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide to
|
||
corn hybrids of 77-88 CRM should be limited to corn that is 12" tall, less than or equal to 5-leaf
|
||
3
|
||
|
||
collars, whichever is most restrictive. In addition, the application of tank mixtures with dicamba
|
||
containing herbicides (such as "Clarity" or "Distinct") to 77-88 CRM corn should contain no more
|
||
than 2 ounces a.L dicamba (e.g. 4 ounces "Clarity"). Seed company publications indicate
|
||
"Warning", "Crop Response Warning", or "Sensitive" notations for the use of some ALS
|
||
herbicides on corn hybrids of 77 CRM or higher. As noted in the seed company publications,
|
||
Cheminova sulfonylurea herbicides such as SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide should be used with
|
||
caution on these hybrids. Limit SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide applications to corn that is up to
|
||
12" tall, up to and including 5 leaf collars, whichever is most restrictive, in the states of KS, OK,
|
||
and TX.
|
||
TIMING TO WEEDS
|
||
Apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide when grasses are young and actively growing, but before
|
||
they exceed the sizes listed on this label.
|
||
• Applications made to weeds at growth stages greater than those listed below may result
|
||
in incomplete control. . Grass competition due to incomplete control may reduce yields.
|
||
• Adequate soil moisture is required for optimum activity. Rainfall within 5 to 7 days after
|
||
application will enhance SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide residual activity.
|
||
If an activating rainfall or sprinkler irrigation (>0.5 inch) is not received within 5-7 days after
|
||
application, follow with a cultivation or with a sequential application of NIC-IT® if needed. See
|
||
CULTIVATION or SEQUENTIAL NIC-IT® APPLICATIONS.
|
||
RATE
|
||
Apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide at a rate of 1.5 ounce per acre for season-long control of
|
||
grass and broadleaf weeds listed below.

As weeds mature, their sensitivity to SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide decreases. Grassy weeds
|
||
growing under stress due to drought or other environmental factors may become mature (more
|
||
than 3 tillers) before they reach the size listed, in which case their susceptibility to SOLIDA
|
||
GRANDE Herbicide may be reduced.
|
||
SPRAY ADJUVANTS
|
||
Applications of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide must include either a crop oil concentrate or a
|
||
non ionic surfactant. In addition, an ammonium nitrogen fertilizer must be used unless
|
||
specifically prohibited by tank mix partner labeling. Crop oil concentrate plus ammonium
|
||
nitrogen fertilizers is the preferred adjuvant system for SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide. If another
|
||
herbicide is tank mixed with SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide, select adjuvants authorized for use
|
||
with both products. Products must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients (40 CFR 1001).
|
||
Petroleum Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) or
|
||
Modified Seed Oil (MSO)
|
||
• Apply at 1 % v/v (1 gallon per 100 gallons spray solution) or 2% under arid conditions.
|
||
• MSO adjuvants may be used at 0.5% v/v (0.5 gallon per 100 gallons spray solution) if
|
||
specifically noted on adjuvant product labeling.
|
||
• Oil adjuvants must contain at least 80% high quality, petroleum (mineral) or modified
|
||
vegetable seed oil with at least 15% surfactant emulsifiers.
|
||
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
|
||
• Apply at 0.25% v/v (1 quart per 100 gallons spray solution) or 0.5% under arid conditions.
|
||
• Surfactant products must contain at least 60% non ionic surfactant with a
|
||
hydrophilic/lipophilic balance (HLB) greater than 12.
|
||
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
|
||
• Use 2 quarts/acre of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), such as 28%N or
|
||
32%N, or 2 pounds/acre of a spray-grade ammonium sulfate (AMS). Use 4 quarts/acre
|
||
UAN or 4 pounds/acre AMS under arid conditions.
|
||
• Do not use liquid nitrogen fertilizer as the total carrier solution.
|
||
5
|
||
|
||
Special Adjuvant Types
|
||
• Combination adjuvant products may be used at doses that provide the required amount
|
||
of NIS, COC, MSO and/or ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. Consult product literature for
|
||
use rates and restrictions.
|
||
• In addition to the adjuvants specified above, other adjuvant types may be used if they
|
||
provide the same functionality and have been evaluated and approved.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water.
|
||
2. While agitating, add the required amount of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide.
|
||
3. Continue agitation until the SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide is fully dispersed, at least 5
|
||
minutes.
|
||
4. Once the SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide is fully dispersed, maintain agitation and continue
|
||
filling tank with water. Thoroughly mix SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with water before
|
||
adding any other material.
|
||
5. As the tank is filling, add the required spray adjuvants (crop oil concentrate, nonionic
|
||
surfactant, or ammonium nitrogen fertilizer).
|
||
6. If the mixture is not co·ntinuously agitated, settling will occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly
|
||
re-agitate before using.
|
||
7. Apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide spray mixture within 24 hours of mixing to avoid
|
||
product degradation.
|
||
8. If SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads,
|
||
pre-slurry the SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide in clean water prior to adding to the tank.
|
||
This will prevent the tank mix partner from interfering with the dissolution of the SOLIDA
|
||
GRANDE Herbicide.
|
||
WHEN TO APPLY - SEQUENTIAL APPLICATIONS FOLLOWING
|
||
REDUCED RATES OF PREEMERGENCE HERBICIDES
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be used as a sequential application in a planned
|
||
postemergence weed control program in corn following a reduced rate of a preemergence
|
||
herbicide.
|
||
Apply a reduced rate of a preemergence grass herbicide prior to corn emergence and then
|
||
follow with a postemergence application of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide. Apply products such
|
||
as "Cinch", "Balance" PRO, "Axiom", "Dual" 1\ Magnum, "Surpass", "Outlook" and "Harness Xtra"
|
||

|
||
For improved grass and broadleaf weed control, SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide tank mixtures with
|
||
1.5 ounces "Callisto" (with or without atrazine) may be applied with 0.5% vlv MSO spray
|
||
adjuvant.
|
||
Do not use MSO adjuvants when tank mixing SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with >1.5 ounces
|
||
"Callisto". Use a petroleum-based crop oil concentrate + an ammonium nitrogen fertilizer.
|
||
Tank Mixtures with "Distinct" or Dicamba
|
||
In situations where the use of crop oil concentrate with growth regulator herbicides is not
|
||
desirable (e.g. extremely cold weather), SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with 2
|
||
ounces "Distinct" + a non ionic surfactant at 0.25% vlv (1 quartl100 gallons spray solution) in
|
||
place of crop oil concentrate, but overall weed control may be reduced.
|
||
Tank mixture applications of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with herbicides containing dicamba
|
||
(e.g. 1-2 ounces "Distinct" and 4 fluid ounces "Clarity") should be limited to corn that is up to 12"
|
||
tall, up to and including 5 leaf collars, whichever is most restrictive, except for the states east of
|
||
the line formed by the western borders of MI, IN, KY, TN, and MS. In these states the upper
|
||
corn size limits are 20" tall, up to and including 6 leaf collars.
|
||
Tank Mixtures with "Spirit"
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with 0.5 ounces of "Spirit" herbicide for
|
||
additional control of velvetleaf, common and giant ragweed, lambsquarters, ivyleaf morningglory,
|
||
Pennsylvania smartweed, and sunflower. Applications must be made to emerged field corn
|
||
before the corn is 12" tall or is exhibiting 6 leaf collars, whichever is the more restrictive.
|
||
For Additional Control of Crabgrass and Later Emerging Grasses
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with full or reduced rates of preemergence
|
||
grass herbicides labeled for early postemergence application to field corn (such as "Cinch",
|
||
"Prowl H20", "Surpass" Ee, "Dual" II Magnum, arid "Outlook") for increased residual activity of
|
||
later-emerging flushes of grasses such as smooth and large crabgrass. Application must be
|
||
made before the crabgrass emerges and before other grass weeds on the SOLIDA GRANDE
|
||
Herbicide label exceed their labeled sizes.
|
||
For Additional Control of Broadleaf Weeds
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with 2 pints per acre of "Lumax" or 2 1/3 pints
|
||
of "Lexar" for improved burndown or residual control of several broadleaf weeds including
|
||
common waterhemp, common ragweed, common lambsquarters, and velvetleaf. When
|
||
applying mixtures of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide plus "Lumax" or "Lexar" the use of a non ionic
|
||
surfactant is recommended. Refer to "Lumax" or "Lexar" labels for additional information
|
||
regarding application timing, tank mixtures, adjuvants, and rotational crops.
|
||
For Additional Control of Broadleaf Weeds
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with 0.5 to 0.75 fluid ounces per acre of
|
||
"Impact" plus atrazine at 0.375 to 1.5 pounds active per acre for improved burndown or residual
|
||
control of several broad leaf weeds including common waterhemp, common ragweed, common
|
||
lambsquarters, and velvetleaf. When applying mixtures of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide plus
|
||
"Impact" at 0.5 fluid ounces per acre the use of methylated seed oil is recommended. Refer to

||
)
|
||
/
|
||
"Impact" label for additional information regarding application timing, tank mixtures, adjuvants,
|
||
and rotational crops.
|
||
The use of nonionic surfactant is recommended in place of crop oil concentrate for tank mixtures
|
||
with preemergence grass herbicides such as "Prowl H20", "Cinch", and "Lumax" where
|
||
applications are made early postemergence to small weeds.
|
||
See SPRAY ADJUVANTS for adjuvant rate recommendations.
|
||
When tank mixing SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with preemergence herbicides that restrict the
|
||
use of ammonium nitrogen fertilizer adjuvants and applications are made early-postemergence
|
||
to small weeds, follow restrictions on the tank mix partner label and/or omit the fertilizer
|
||
adjuvants. Tank mix rates of "Lumax" herbicide should be limited to no more than 2 pints per
|
||
acre.
|
||
When tank mixing SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with EC formulated preemergence grass
|
||
herbicides such as "Cinch", "Dual" II Magnum, or "Prowl H20", do not add "Callisto" herbicide to
|
||
the tank mixture. When other formulations of preemergence grass herbicides are tank mixed
|
||
with SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide + "Callisto" (such as "Cinch" ATZ or "Bicep II Magnum"), limit
|
||
preemergence herbicide rates to no more than 2/3 x full preemergence rates, always add a
|
||
non ionic surfactant in place of crop oil concentrate, and limit broad leaf weed sizes to less than
|
||
or equal to 4" tall.
|
||
Tank mixes of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide and preemergence grass herbicides must be
|
||
broadcast applied postemergence to field corn before the crop exceeds the heights listed on the
|
||
preemergence grass herbicide label. Refer to WHEN TO APPLY - POSTEMERGENCE and
|
||
the preemergence grass herbicide label for complete postemergence application information,
|
||
rates, and restrictions.

|
||
"Permit" or "Yukon" labels for additional weeds controlled. Always add COC and ammonium
|
||
nitrogen fertilizer.
|
||
For Additional Control of Kochia
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with 1/3 to 2/3 pint per acre of "Starane" for
|
||
improved control of kochia. Use higher specified rates when weed infestation is heavy. Refer to
|
||
the specific "Starane" label for application timing and restrictions.

|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed with pyrethroid or carbamate insecticides such
|
||
as Declare®. .
|
||
10
|
||
|
||
To avoid crop injury or antagonism, apply the products indicated below at least seven days
|
||
before or three days after the application of SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide.
|
||
Do not tank mix SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with "Basagran" and "Laddok" or severe crop injury
|
||
may occur.
|
||
Do not tank mix SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with 2,4-D-containing products as severe grass
|
||
control antagonism may occur.
|
||
Do not tank mix SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with foliar-applied organophosphate insecticides
|
||
such as Nufos®, Fyfanon®, "Lorsban", parathion, etc., as severe crop injury may occur.
|
||
Do not tank mix SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide with other acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibiting
|
||
herbicides unless the mixture is specifically recommended on the SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide
|
||
label, as severe crop injury may occur.
|
||
Other than the exceptions noted, and in addition to the tank mix partners and rates indicated
|
||
above, SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be tank mixed or followed with sequential applications
|
||
of other products registered for use in field corn. SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be applied in
|
||
tank mix combinations with full or reduced rates of other products provided:
|
||
• The tank mix product is labeled for the same timing, method of application, adjuvants,
|
||
and use restrictions as SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide.
|
||
• The tank mixture is not specifically prohibited on the label of the tank mix product.
|
||
• The tank mix combination is compatible as determined by a "jar test" described in the
|
||
TANK MIX COMPATIBILITY TESTING section below.
|
||
Tank Mixing Precautions:
|
||
• Weed control and crop response with tank mixtures not specifically recommended in this
|
||
label are the responsibility of the user and manufacturer of the tank mix product.
|
||
• Read and follow all applicable use directions, precautions, and limitations specified on
|
||
the respective product labels.
|
||
• Do not exceed labeled application rates. Do not tank mix SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide
|
||
with other products that contain the same active ingredients as SaLIDA GRANDE
|
||
Herbicide (nicosulfuron and rimsulfuron) unless the label of either tank mix partner
|
||
specifies the maximum rate that may be used.
|
||
• A corn plant's predisposition to develop fused tissue emerging from the whorl (rattail)
|
||
after the V-11 stage may increase when a product containing dicamba (Le. "Clarity",
|
||
"Marksman", "Distinct") is applied to small corn under early stressful conditions. Be
|
||
aware of this when applying tank mixes with dicamba to small corn (V-3 stage or smaller)
|
||
under stressful conditions. See ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS for a description of
|
||
these stressful conditions.
|
||
TANK MIX COMPATIBILITY TESTING
|
||
Perform a jar test prior to tank mixing to ensure compatibility of SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide and
|
||
other pesticides. Use a clear glass quart jar with lid and mix the tank mix ingredients in their
|
||
relative proportions. Invert the jar containing the mixture several times and observe the mixture
|
||
for approximately % hour. If the mixture ballS-Up, forms flakes, sludges, gels, oily film or layers,
|
||
or other precipitates, it is not compatible and the tank mix combination should not be used.
|
||
SEQUENTIAL NIC-ITTM APPLICATIONS
|
||
Apply NIC-IT® Herbicide 14 or more days after the SaLIDA GRANDE Herbicide applications to
|
||
11
|
||
|
||
-",
|
||
j
|
||
control grasses that may emerge later in the season. Refer to the NIC-Ir® Herbicide label for
|
||
grass species controlled, proper size of weeds, rates, corn sizes, and other information. When
|
||
following a SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide application, do not use more than 3 ounces NIC-IT® per
|
||
acre.
|
||
A sequential application of NIC-IT® Herbicide will affect crop rotation intervals to certain sensitive
|
||
crops, such as sugarbeets. For maximum crop rotation flexibility, consult the CROP ROTATION
|
||
section before applying NIC-Ir® Herbicide to fields previously treated with SOLIDA GRANDE
|
||
Herbicide.
|
||
CULTIVATION
|
||
A timely cultivation may be necessary to control suppressed weeds, or weeds that emerge after
|
||
an application of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide in the absence of an activating rainfall. Optimum
|
||
timing for cultivation is 7-14 days after SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide application or upon seeing
|
||
the establishment of new weeds.
|
||
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND
|
||
BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide provides best results when applied to young, actively growing
|
||
weeds. Applications made during warm, moist conditions (70°F or more) and adequate soil
|
||
moisture both before and after application maximizes performance.
|
||
The degree and duration of control depend on spray coverage, activating rainfall, weed
|
||
spectrum, weed size, growing conditions before and after treatment, soil moisture, and adjuvant
|
||
selection.
|
||
Adequate soil moisture is required for optimum activity. Rainfall within 5-7 days will enhance
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide residual activity. A timely cultivation may be required for maximum
|
||
weed control without an activating rain.
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide is rainfast in 4 hours.
|
||
Treating weeds that exceed maximum label height or that are under stress may result in
|
||
incomplete control. Poor weed control or crop injury may Jesuit from applications made to plants
|
||
under stress from:
|
||
• abnormally hotor cold weather
|
||
• environmental conditions such as drought, water-saturated soils, hail damage, or frost
|
||
• disease, insect, or nematode injury
|
||
• prior herbicide, or carryover from a previous year's herbicide application
|
||
Severe stress from conditions immediately following application may also result in crop injury or
|
||
poor weed control. Stress affects all weeds, but especially weeds such as woolly cupgrass,
|
||
green and yellow foxtail, and wild proso millet.
|
||
If the corn or grass weeds are under stress, delay application until stress passes and both
|
||
weeds and corn resume active growth.
|
||
Apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide when minimum nighttime temperatures are above 40°F and
|
||
the maximum daytime temperatures are below 92°F to maximize performance and minimize the
|
||
potential for crop injury.
|
||
Applications made during or immediately following periods of large day/night temperature
|
||
12
|
||
|
||
\~Z,\
|
||
fluctuations or where daytime temperatures do not exceed 50°F may decrease weed control and
|
||
increase the potential for crop injury.
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide rapidly inhibits the growth of susceptible weeds, reducing weed
|
||
competition within as little as 6 hours after application. Susceptible plants are controlled in 7-21
|
||
days.
|
||
Ground application of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide to dry, dusty fields may reduce weed control
|
||
in wheel track areas.
|
||
SOIL INSECTICIDE INTERACTION INFORMATION
|
||
Before using SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide, ensure that it is compatible with any other
|
||
insecticides previously applied to the corn crop.
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may interact with certain insecticides previously applied to the crop.
|
||
Crop response varies with field corn type, insecticide used, insecticide application method, and
|
||
soil type.
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide may be applied to corn previously treated with "Fortress", "Aztec",
|
||
or "Force" insecticic,ies or non~organophosphate (OP) soil insecticides regardless of soil type.
|
||
• DO NOT APPLY SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide to corn previously treated with "Counter"
|
||
15G, or corn treated with "Counter" 20 CR infurrow or over the row at cultivation.
|
||
• Applications of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide to corn previously treated with "Counter" 20
|
||
CR, "Lorsban", or "Thimet" may cause unacceptable crop injury, especially on soils of
|
||
less than 4% organic matter.
|
||
CROP ROTATION
|
||
Rotational crops vary in their response to low concentrations of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide
|
||
remaining in the soil. SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide dissipates rapidly in warm, acidic,
|
||
microbiologically active soils. The amount of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide which may be
|
||
present in the soil depends on the soil pH and organic matter content, elapsed time since
|
||
application, crop production practices, and environmental factors.
|
||
Injury to rotational crops may occur in high-pH, cold soils if dry weather prevails between
|
||
application and rotational crop planting.
|
||
For fields treated with sequential applications of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide and NIC-ITTM
|
||
Herbicide, consult the crop rotation intervals listed on the NIC-ITTM Herbicide and SOLIDA
|
||
GRANDE Herbicide labels. Use the most restrictive recrop interval from either label.
|
||
The following rotational intervals must be observed when using SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide:

Many crops are highly sensitive to SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide. All direct or indirect contact
|
||
(such as spray drift) with crops other than field corn should be avoided (see also SPRAY DRIFT
|
||
MANAGEMENT). For all application systems, use 50-mesh or larger strainer screens. Do not
|
||
apply SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
GROUND APPLICATION
|
||
Broadcast Appllcaffon
|
||
Use a minimum of 15 gallons of water per acre (GPA) to ensure thorough coverage of weeds
|
||
and the best performance. Use a minimum of 10 GPA for light, scattered stands of weeds.
|
||
For best performance, select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets, as
|
||
indicated, for example, by ASAE Standards S572. Nozzles that deliver COARSE spray droplets
|
||
may be used to reduce drift, provided spray volume is increased to maintain coverage on small
|
||
weeds. For optimal product performance and minimal spray drift, adjust the spray boom to the
|
||
lowest possible spray height recommended in manufacturers' specifications.
|
||
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.

|
||
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.
|
||
AERIAL APPLICATION
|
||
Aerial application is not permitted in New York State or California.
|
||
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum spray distribution and maximum
|
||
coverage at a minimum of 5 GPA. Do not apply during a temperature inversion, when winds are
|
||
gusty, or when conditions favor poor coverage and/or off-target spray movement.
|
||
SPRAYER PREPARATION/CLEANUP
|
||
It is important that spray equipment is clean and free of previous pestiCide deposits before using
|
||
SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide and then properly cleaned out following application. Clean all
|
||
application equipment before applying SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide. Follow the cleanup
|
||
procedures specified on the label of the product previously sprayed. If no cleanup procedure is
|
||
provided, use the procedure that follows. Immediately following applications of SOLIDA
|
||
GRANDE Herbicide, thoroughly clean all mixing and spray equipment to avoid subsequent crop
|
||
injury.
|
||
Note:
|
||
• When cleaning spray equipment before applying SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide, read and
|
||
follow label directions for proper rinsate disposal of the product previously sprayed.
|
||
• Steam cleaning of aerial spray tanks will help to dislodge any visible pesticide deposits.
|
||
• When spraying or mixing equipment will be used over an extended period to apply
|
||
multiple loads of SOLIDA GRANDE Herbicide, partially fill the tank with fresh water at the
|
||
end of each day of spraying, flush the boom and hoses, and allow to sit overnight.
|
||
Cleanup Procedure:
|
||
1. Drain the tank and thoroughly hose down the interior surfaces. Flush the tank, hoses,
|
||
and boom with clean water for a minimum of 5 min.
|
||
2. Partially fill the tank with clean water and add one gallon of household ammonia*
|
||
(containing 3% active) for every 100 gallons of water. Finish filling the tank with water,
|
||
then flush the cleaning solution through the hoses, boom, and nozzles. Add more water
|
||
to completely fill the tank and allow to agitatelrecirculate for at least 15 min. Again, flush
|
||
the hoses, boom, and nozzles with the cleaning solution, then drain the tank.
|
||
3. Repeat Step 2.
|
||
4. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a bucket containing the
|
||
cleaning agent and water.
|
||
5. Thoroughly rinse the tank with clean water for a minimum of 5 min., flushing the water
|
||
through the hoses and boom.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
The interaction of many equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for
|
||
spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering all these factors when making
|
||
application decisions. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
|
||
APPLICATOR.
|
||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets (>150-200 microns).
|
||
The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient
|
||
15
|
||
|
||
')
|
||
I
|
||
coverage and control. The presence of sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions,
|
||
and pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift control and coverage. APPLYING
|
||
LARGER DROPLETS REDUCES DRIFT POTENTIAL, BUT WILL NOT PREVENT DRIFT IF
|
||
APPLICATIONS ARE MADE IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTAL
|
||
CONDITIONS! See Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions sections of
|
||
this label.
|
||
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE-GENERAL TECHNIQUES
|
||
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume.
|
||
Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets.
|
||
• Pressure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended for the nozzle. Higher
|
||
pressure reduces droplet size and does not improve canopy penetration. WHEN
|
||
HIGHER FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE A HIGHER-CAPACITY NOZZLE INSTEAD
|
||
OF INCREASING PRESSURE.
|
||
• 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.
|
||
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE - AIRCRAFT
|
||
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles with the highest flow rate that
|
||
provide uniform coverage.
|
||
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is emitted backwards, parallel to
|
||
the airstream will produce larger droplets than other orientations.
|
||
• Nozzle Type - Solid stream nozzles (such as disc and core with swirl plate removed)
|
||
oriented straight back produce larger droplets than other nozzle types.
|
||
• Boom Length - The boom length should not exceed % of the wing or rotor length
|
||
longer booms increase drift potential.
|
||
• Application Height - Application more than 10ft. above the canopy increases the
|
||
potential for spray drift.
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT
|
||
Set the boom at the lowest height that provides uniform coverage and reduces the exposure of
|
||
droplets to evaporation and wind. For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the
|
||
crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||
WIND
|
||
Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph (due to inversion potential) or more
|
||
than 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift
|
||
potential at any given wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY OR WINDLESS
|
||
CONDITIONS.
|
||
Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local
|
||
wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.
|
||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
|
||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, set up equipment to produce larger droplets
|
||
or reduce effects of evaporation.
|
||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air
|
||
mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain close to the ground and move laterally
|
||
in a concentrated cloud. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature
|
||
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 morning. Their presence can be indicated by
|
||
16
|
||
|
||
~)
|
||
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.
|
||
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
|
||
To better control pests, Cheminova recommends the use of Integrated Pest Management.
|
||
Rimsulfuron Herbicide may be used as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program,
|
||
which can include biological, cultural, and genetic practices, aimed at preventing economic pest
|
||
identification, population monitoring, and treating when target pest populations reach locally
|
||
determined action thresholds. Consult your agricultural dealer, consultant, applicator, and/or
|
||
appropriate state agricultural extension service representative for treating specific pest/crop or
|
||
site systems in your area.
|
||
RESISTANCE
|
||
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 the
|
||
field. Adequate control to 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 better manage herbicide resistance through delaying the proliferation and possible
|
||
dominance of herbicide resistant weed biotypes, it may be necessary to change cultural
|
||
practices within and between crop seasons such as using a combination of tillage, retreatment,
|
||
tank mix partners and/or sequentiai herbicide applications that have a different site of action.
|
||
Weed escapes that are allowed to go to seed will promote the spread of resistant biotypes.
|
||
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. Consult your agricultural dealer,
|
||
consultant, applicator, and/or appropriate state agricultural extension service representative for
|
||
specific alternative cultural practices or herbicide recommendations available in your area.
|
||
