Weed Resistance Information
|
|
Fluthiacet-methyl, the active ingredient in this product, is a Group 14 herbicide based on the mode of action
|
|
classification system of the Weed Science Society of America. Any weed population may contain plants
|
|
naturally resistant to Group 14 herbicides. Such resistant weed plants may not be effectively managed using
|
|
Group 14 herbicides but may be'effectively managed utilizing another herbicide alone or in mixtures from a
|
|
different Group and/or using cultural or mechanical practices. However, a herbicide mode of action
|
|
-classification'by itself"may"not"acffeqTjate1y~a'ddre'ss"specific weeds"that are resistant to specific heTbicides.
|
|
Consult your local company representative, state cooperative extension service, professional consultants or
|
|
other qualified authorities to determine appropriate actions for treating specific resistant weeds.
|
|
|
|
IS
|
|
Best Management Practices
|
|
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations
|
|
resistant to one or more herbicides is recommended. A diversified weed management program may include
|
|
the use of multiple herbicides with different modes 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. Scouting after a herbicide application is
|
|
important because it can facilitate the early identification of weed shifts and/or weed resistance and thus
|
|
provide direction on future weed management practices. One of the best ways to contain resistant populations
|
|
is to implement measures to avoid allowing weeds to reproduce by seed or to proliferate vegetatively.
|
|
Cleaning equipment between sites and avoiding movement of plant material between sites will greatly aid in
|
|
retarding the spread of resistant weed seed.
|
|
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
|
|
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
|
|
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift.
|
|
Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or
|
|
Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
|
|
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS

|
|
170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests,
|
|
nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training,
|
|
decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions
|
|
pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment and restricted-entry interval.

**********USE IN CORN AND SOYBEANS**********
|
|
PRODUCT INFORMATION «
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide is a postemergence herbicide for control of velvetleaf and other broadleaf »
|
|
weeds in soybeans, field corn, sweet corn, and popcorn (includes field corn, sweet corn, and popcorn grown
|
|
for seed). Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide must be applied after emergence of the crop and broadleaf •
|
|
weeds. There is a wide application timing window for use in soybean and corn. For use in soybean, the *
|
|
application window ranges from first trifoliate to the full flowering stage. For use in corn, the application
|
|
window ranges from the 2-leaf stage (2 visible collars) until the corn is 48 inches tall or prior to tasseling, 0
|
|
'whichever comes first. Refer to Table 2 for a list of broadleaf weeds controlled. (
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide, will control velvetleatupjo 36 inches Jail. Fluthiacet-MethyLWSP Herbicide.«.
|
|
will also control pr partially control certain other annual broadleaf weeds. Partial control means significant
|
|
activity but not always at the level generally considered acceptable for commercial weed control. When tank
|
|
mixed, Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide may enhance the performance of other herbicides in the control of
|
|
|
|
is-certain broadleaf weeds (see Table 2). Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide does not control grasses. Therefore,
|
|
if grasses are present at the time of application, Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide should be mixed with an
|
|
appropriate postemergence herbicide registered for grass control. '
|
|
The amount of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide to apply and the degree of weed control resulting from an
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide application depend upon a variety of factors such as weeds present, stage of
|
|
growth of weeds, environmental conditions, and growing conditions. Weeds under stress because of lack of
|
|
moisture, low soil fertility, mechanical or chemical injury, may not be controlled as well as actively growing
|
|
weeds. Weed death or inhibition can be expected quickly - normally within 48 hours after application.
|
|
To be effective, Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide must contact the weed foliage. Thorough coverage with the
|
|
spray solution gives the most effective weed control. A large crop and/or weed canopy as well as a dense
|
|
crop and/or weed canopy can prevent the spray from reaching smaller weeds resulting in reduced control of
|
|
these smaller weeds.
|
|
Soybean and corn are tolerant of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide when applied according to label directions.
|
|
Some bronzing, crinkling, or spotting of crop leaves may occur. Soybean and corn rapidly outgrow these
|
|
effects and develop normally with no reduction in yield.
|
|
Cotton is very sensitive to Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide. Do not allow spray to contact cotton.
|
|
Grazing/Feeding and Harvesting Restrictions
|
|
Don not graze or feed treated soybean forage or hay to livestock.
|
|
Do not harvest or feed corn grain or stover (fodder) until 90 days after the last application of Fluthiacet-Methyl
|
|
WSP Herbicide.
|
|
Do not harvest or feed field corn forage until 30 days after the last application of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP
|
|
Herbicide.
|
|
Do not harvest or feed sweet corn forage or ears until 40 days after the last application of Fluthiacet-Methyl
|
|
WSP Herbicide.
|
|
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
|
Spray Additives
|
|
An adjuvant approved for use on growing crops is required for Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide for maximum
|
|
consistent performance.
|
|
\. Adjuvants for Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide Alone
|
|
Use spray adjuvant from one of these classes for optimum performance:
|
|
Non-ionic surfactant (NIS) - with a minimum of SCrVo of the constituents effective as spray adjuvant at the rate
|
|
of 1 quart/100 gals. Of spray volume (concentration of 0.25%).
|
|
i
|
|
Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) - petroleum or vegetable-based containing not less than 12% emulsifier at 1-2
|
|
pts./A. The concentration should not exceed 2.5% volume/volume. COC is recommended under conditions of
|
|
dry soil and low relative humidity. ,
|
|
iSilicone-based surfactant - at a rate of 1 quart/100 gals. Or a spray volume concentration of 0.25% or as
|
|
_ .specified _onJhe_adjuvantJabel
|
|
|
|
In addition to an adjuvant, urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) at 1-2 qts./A or spray grade ammonium sulfate (AMS)
|
|
at 1.5-2.5 Ibs./A may also be added to the spray solution. Do not use liquid fertilizer as the total carrier
|
|
solution.
|
|
2. Adjuvants for Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide in Tank mixtures with Other Herbicides
|
|
When tank mixing with other herbicides, use the adjuvant recommended for use with the tank mix partner.
|
|
Follow all restrictions and precautions on the tank mix partner's label.
|
|
Compatibility Test
|
|
A jar test is recommended before mixing to ensure Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide compatibility with tank
|
|
mix partners and adjuvants. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gallons per acre. For other
|
|
spray volumes, make appropriate changes in the ingredient rates.
|
|
1. Add 1.0 pt. of water to each of 2 one-quart jars with tight lids.
|
|
Note: Use the same source of water and the other components in the compatibility test that will actually be
|
|
tank mixed and applied. It is important that all components are mixed at a temperature similar to the
|
|
temperature of those used for the actual application.
|
|
2. To one of the jars, add 1/4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility agent approved for this use, such as
|
|
Compex® or United® (1/4 tsp. is equivalent to 2 pt./100 gals. Spray). Shake or stir gently to mix.
|
|
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more than herbicide is used, add them
|
|
separately with dry herbicides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable concentrates last. Finally, add the
|
|
appropriate amount of any adjuvants that will be used. After each addition, shake or stir gently to
|
|
thoroughly mix. The appropriate amount of herbicides for this test follows1.
|
|
Dry Herbicide and Adjuvants: For each pound to be applied per acre, add 1.4 tsp. to each jar.
|
|
Liquid Herbicides and Adjuvants: for each pint to be applied per acre, add 0.5 tsp. or 2.5 milliliters to
|
|
each jar.
|
|
4. After adding all ingredients, out lids on and tighten, and invert each jar 10 times to mix. Let the mixtures
|
|
stand 15-30 minutes and look for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oil film on the jar, or
|
|
other signs of incompatibility. Determine if a compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by
|
|
comparing the two jars. If either mixture separates, but can be remixed readily, the mixture can be
|
|
sprayed as long as good agitation is used. If the mixtures are incompatible, test the following methods of
|
|
improving compatibility.
|
|
a. Slurry the dry pesticide(s) in the water before addition, or
|
|
b. Add 1/2 the compatibility agent to the water and the other 1/2 to the emulsifiable concentrate or
|
|
flowable pesticide before addition to the mixture. If incompatibility is still observed, do not use the ,
|
|
mixture. ,
|
|
<
|
|
After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes according to the Storage and Disposal
|
|
section of this label.
|
|
|
|
How to Mix
|
|
1. The spray equipment must be clean before using this product. If it is contaminated with other
|
|
materials, mixing problems and/or clogging may occur or crop injury may occur.
|
|
2. Prepare no more spray mixture than is needed for the immediate application, and do not let the spray
|
|
mixture stand in the spray tank overnight.
|
|
3. Maintain maximum agitation throughout the spraying operation.
|
|
4. Water-soluble packets must always be the first material put into the spray tank after water. Water-
|
|
soluble packets must be completely dissolved and dispersed in clean water only before any other tank
|
|
mix partners, including adjuvants, micronutrients, or other fertilizers are added to the spray solution.
|
|
Boron, especially, in the form of a micronutrient additive, such as Solubor®, etc., may prevent water-
|
|
soluble packets from dissolving.
|
|
5. Flush the spray equipment thoroughly after each use and apply rinsate to prevent a previously-treated
|
|
area.
|
|
Mixing Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide Alone
|
|
1. Add 1/4 to 1/2 of the required amount of clean water to the spray or mixing tank.
|
|
2. With the agitator running, add the required amount of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide to the spray
|
|
tank. Continue agitation in the spray tank and allow product to fully and uniformly disperse.
|
|
3. Add the spray adjuvant and continue agitation while adding the rest of the water.
|
|
4. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.
|
|
Mixing Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide in Tank Mixtures with Other Herbicides
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide is compatible with most commonly used herbicides, insecticides, fungicides,
|
|
and adjuvants. BEOFRE MIXING FLUTHIACET-METHYL WSP HERBICIDE WITH OTHER REGISTERED
|
|
PRODUCTS FOR ANY USE ON THIS LABEL, READ THE LABE OF THE TANK MIX PARTNER TO BE
|
|
CERTAIN IT IS LABELED FOR THE USE ON THE PARTICULAR CROP AND THAT USE PATTERNS ARE
|
|
COMPATIBLE WITH THOSE OF FLUTHIACET-METHYL WSP HERBICIDE. When using Fluthiacet-Methyl
|
|
WSP Herbicide in a tank mixture with other pesticides, observe the most restrictive label limitations and
|
|
precautions for the products being used.
|
|
Mixing Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide with acifluorfen or lactofen-containgin products (such as Blazer®,
|
|
Galaxy®, Cobra®, or Strom®) can improve the control of velvetleaf by these products. However, these tank
|
|
mixes will not control velvetleaf as well as Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide applied alone.
|
|
|
|
Tank Mixing Steps
|
|
1 . Add 1/4 to 1/2 of the required amount of clean water to the spray or mixing tank.
|
|
2. With the agitator running, drop the required number of packets of any products packaged in water-
|
|
soluble packets into the tank all at once. Continue agitation in the spray tank and allow the packet
|
|
completely dissolve and the contents of the packets to fully and uniformly disperse.
|
|
3. While maintaining agitation, continue filling the spray tank. When the tank is 3/4 full, add any dry
|
|
formulation tank mix partners and allow them to completely and uniformly dissolve.
|
|
4. Add the required amount of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide to the spray tank while maintain
|
|
agitation. After the product has completely and uniformly dispersed into the tank mix, add any other
|
|
liquid tank mix partners and allow them to completely and uniformly disperse.
|
|
5. Add the proper amount of spray adjuvant and continue agitation while adding the remaining water.
|
|
6. Complete filling the tank with clean water and maintain sufficient agitation at all times to insure surface
|
|
action until the mixture is uniform.
|
|
7. To avoid product degradation, apply Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide spray mixture with 4 hours of
|
|
mixing, and do not leave the spray mixture in the tank without continuous agitation.
|
|
8. After use, thoroughly clean the sprayer according to this label (see Cleaning Spray Equipment) and
|
|
any tank mix partner labels.
|

WHEN TO APPLY
|
|
Weed Stage of Growth
|
|
Apply Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide after weeds have emerged and are actively growing, but before
|
|
the weeds have reached the maximum height listed in Table 2. Application after weeds have reached the
|
|
listed rnaxirrTurffrTeighrfor corftrol coulcTrestilt'in' comrneTcially unacceptatDleTweed controT
|
|
Avoid applying Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide if weeds cannot be evenly covered with the spray or
|
|
when spray drift is possible. To reduce spray drift, do not apply if wind speed is 10 mph or greater. Avoid
|
|
overlapping the spray pattern since this may increase chances for crop injury.
|
|
«
|
|
Soybean Stage of Growth ,
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide may be abplied to soybeans from the first trifoliate through the full
|
|
flowering stage of development. To avoid possible illegal residues, the last application should be made
|
|
no later than 60 days before harvest. This product requires a pre-harvest interval (PHI) of 60 days.
|
|
Field Corn, Sweet Corn, and Popcorn Stages of Growth
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide may be applied to corn from the 2-leaf stage (2 visible collars) to 48
|
|
inches tall, but before tasseling.
|
|
Cultivation
|
|
Do not cultivate within 2 days before or 2 days after applying this product.
|
|
Application Precautions
|
|
1. Do not apply if crop is under severe stress due to drought, cold weather, hail, flooding, water-logged .or
|
|
compacted soil, disease, insect damage, nutrient deficiency (especially low nitrogen levels), or other
|
|
causes.
|
|
2. Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide can be applied in tank mixtures to weeds taller than the
|
|
maximum heights listed in Table 2 provided the application follows all timing and rate precautions
|
|
on the tank mix partner's label.
|
|
3. Application to weeds that are under severe stress due to drought to weeds that are taller than the
|
|
optimum heights listed in Table 2 may result in reduced weed control.
|
|
4. Do not irrigate with 4 hours of application of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide. Rainfall or irrigation
|
|
may Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide off of the weeds during this period and reduced
|
|
performance.
|
|
5. Observe all precautions and limitations on the label of each product used in tank mixture with
|
|
Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide.
|
|
Application Restrictions for Corn and Soybeans
|
|
1. Do not make more than 2 application per year at the 1.5 oz./A (0.0045 Ib ai/A) rate OR 1 application
|
|
per year at the 2.25 oz./A (0.0066 Ib ai/A) rate of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide.
|
|
2. Do not apply more than 0.0089 Ib of Fluthiacet-Methyl per acre from any combination of products
|
|
in a 12 month period.
|
|
3. (1)3 oz. packet must be applied to a minimum of 1.33 acres at the maximum single application rate
|
|
(0.0066 Ib ai/A).

|
Spray Drift Precautions
|
|
Do not allow spray to drift onto adjacent land or crops. When drift may be probable, do everything possible to
|
|
reduce sprat drift, including:
|
|
1. Do not spray if wind speeds are gusty or become 10 mph or greater. ;
|
|
i
|
|
2. Use extreme caution when conditions favor drift (high temperatures, low relative humidity). '
|
|
i
|
|
3. Do not apply during a temperature inversion. If an inversion is suspected, consult the local weather
|
|
service before applying Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide. »
|
|
4. These practices can further reduce drift: »
|
|
a. Using nozzles that provide a uniform droplet size. Use spray nozzles that provide •
|
|
medium-course droplets (250-400 microns VMD). Nozzles that produce extremely small
|
|
droplets are more likely to cause spray drift.
|
|
b. Apply as close to target plants as practical while maintaining a good spray pattern for
|
|
adequate spray coverage.
|
|
5. Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that
|
|
might be damaged or crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use, or consumption.
|
|
6. Do not spray if wind is moving in the direction of sensitive areas (i.e. known habitat of endangered
|
|
species, bodies of water). Applicators must take all precautions necessary to keep spray drift from
|
|
reaching sensitive areas.
|
|
Cleaning Spray Equipment
|
|
The sprayer must be cleaned before and after use of Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide. Failure to do so
|
|
may result in unsatisfactory results with Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide or injury to other crops sprayed
|
|
with the equipment. Refer to the label of the product used previously or tank mixed with Fluthiacet-Methyl
|
|
WSP Herbicide for additional cleaning instructions.
|
|
When Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide has been used alone:
|
|
1. Fill the sprayer with clean water.
|
|
2. Add a commercial spray cleaner.
|
|
3. Circulate the mixture through the system.
|
|
4. Spray approximately 1/2 through the hose, boom, and nozzles to an area that has already beed
|
|
treated.
|
|
5. Drain the remaining solution.
|
|
6. Rinse the entire system with clean water.
|
|
7. Spray with rinsate on an area that has already been treated.
|
|
When Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide has been tank mixed:
|
|
Refer to the label of the product used preciously or tank mixed with Fluthiacet-Methyl WSP Herbicide for
|
|
cleaning instructions.
