Groundwater Advisory
|
||
This product has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. This product may
|
||
leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
|
||
Surface Water Advisory
|
||
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining
|
||
soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface
|
||
water via runoff for months 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 this product from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by avoiding
|
||
applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
|
||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
AFFINITY® TankMix herbicide (with TotalSol® soluble granules) – referred to below as AFFINITY TankMix
|
||
herbicide - is a soluble granule to be mixed in water or other recommended carrier and applied as a uniform
|
||
broadcast spray. It is noncorrosive, nonflammable, nonvolatile and does not freeze.
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is to be used in a tank mix with other suitable registered herbicides to provide
|
||
selective postemergence control of certain broadleaf weeds in wheat (including durum), barley, oat, triticale, post-
|
||
harvest burndown, preplant burndown and fallow. AFFINITY TankMix herbicide at 0.6 to 1.0 oz/A can be used
|
||
alone or in a tank mix in the state of Arizona for control of broadleaf weeds in wheat, barley and triticale, and at 0.6
|
||
to 0.75 oz/A in oat.
|
||
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.
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide must be used only in accordance with instructions on this label. Always read the
|
||

|
||
FMC.
|
||
|
||
3
|
||
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is for use on wheat, barley, oat, triticale, post-harvest burndown, pre-plant burndown
|
||
and fallow in most states. Check with your state extension service or Dept. of Agriculture before use, to be certain
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is registered in your state.
|
||
Windblown Soil Particles Advisory
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide has the potential to move off-site due to wind erosion. Soils that are subject to wind
|
||
erosion usually have a high silt and/or fine to very fine sand fractions and low organic matter content. Other factors
|
||
which can affect the movement of windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing winds, vegetative
|
||
cover, site slope, rainfall, and drainage patterns. Avoid applying AFFINITY TankMix herbicide if prevailing local
|
||
conditions may be expected to result in off-site movement.
|
||
Non-target Organism Advisory
|
||
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 area. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by
|
||
minimizing spray drift. For further guidance and instructions on how to minimize spray drift, refer to the Spray Drift
|
||
Management section of this label.
|
||

|
||
• DO NOT use AFFINITY TankMix herbicide plus products containing malathion because crop injury will result.
|
||
• DO NOT use a tank mix of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide with a bromoxynil containing herbicide with Puma®
|
||
1EC herbicide on two-row malting barley.
|
||
• DO NOT use on "Ogle", "Porter" or "Premier" varieties in spring oat as crop injury can occur.
|
||
• DO NOT tank mix Hoelon® 3EC herbicide + AFFINITY TankMix herbicide when foxtail is the major grassy
|
||

|
||
• Sequential treatments of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may be made provided the total amount of AFFINITY
|
||
TankMix herbicide applied in fallow DOES NOT exceed 1.8 oz/A per year.
|
||
• Sequential treatments of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may also be made provided the total amount of
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide applied during one fallow/preplant season DOES NOT exceed 1.8 oz/A per year.
|
||
|
||
4
|
||
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide must not be applied to wheat, barley, oat or triticale that is stressed by severe
|
||
weather conditions, drought (including low levels of subsoil moisture), low fertility, water-saturated soil, disease, or
|
||
insect damage, as crop injury may result. Risk of injury is greatest when crop is in the 2 to 5-leaf stage. Severe
|
||
winter stress, drought, disease, or insect damage following application also may result in crop injury.
|
||
• DO NOT apply to wheat, barley, oat or triticale crops underseeded with another crop.
|
||
• DO NOT harvest within 45 days of the last application in wheat (including durum), barley, winter oat and triticale.
|
||
• DO NOT harvest within 45 days of the last application in spring oat.
|
||
PRECAUTIONS
|
||
Injury to or loss of adjacent sensitive crops, desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the
|
||
following:
|
||
• Take all necessary precautions to avoid all direct or indirect contact (including spray drift) with non-target plants
|
||
or areas.
|
||
Carefully observe all sprayer cleanup instructions both prior to and after using this product, as spray tank residue
|
||
may damage crops other than wheat, barley, oat, and triticale.
|
||
Dry, dusty field conditions may result in reduced control in wheel track areas.
|
||
Wheat, barley, oat, and triticale may differ in their response to various herbicides. FMC advises that you first consult
|
||
your state experiment station, university, or extension agent as to sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is
|
||
available, limit the initial use of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide to a small area.
|
||
Under certain conditions, including heavy rainfall, prolonged cold weather (daily high temperature less than 50 o F),
|
||
or wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures prior to or soon after AFFINITY TankMix herbicide application,
|
||
temporary discoloration and/or crop injury may occur. To reduce the potential of crop injury, tank mix AFFINITY
|
||
TankMix herbicide with 2,4-D (ester formulations perform best–see “Tank Mixtures” section of this label) and
|
||
apply after the crop is in the tillering stage of growth.
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s 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.).
|
||
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
|
||
Best results are obtained when AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is applied to young, actively growing weeds. The use
|
||
rate will depend on weed spectrum and size of weed at time of application. The degree of control and duration of
|
||
effect are dependent on rate used, sensitivity and size of target weed and environmental conditions at the time of and
|
||
following application. AFFINITY TankMix herbicide stops growth of susceptible weeds rapidly. However, typical
|
||
symptoms of dying weeds (discoloration) may not be noticeable for 1-3 weeks after application (2-5 weeks for wild
|
||
garlic, when present) depending on the environmental conditions and weed susceptibility. Warm, moist conditions
|
||
following treatment promote the activity of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide, while cold, dry conditions delay the
|
||
activity. Weeds hardened-off by cold weather or drought stress will be less susceptible.
|
||
A vigorous growing crop will aid weed control by shading and providing competition for weeds. However, a dense
|
||
crop canopy at time of application can intercept spray and result in reduced weed control. Weeds may not be
|
||
adequately controlled in areas of thin crop stand or seeding skips.
|
||
Applications made to weeds that are in the cotyledon stage, larger than the size indicated, or to weeds under stress
|
||
may result in unsatisfactory control.
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may injure crops that are stressed from adverse environmental conditions (such as
|
||
extreme temperatures or moisture), abnormal soil conditions, or cultural practices. In addition, different varieties of
|
||
the crop may have differing levels of sensitivity to treatment with AFFINITY TankMix herbicide under otherwise
|
||
normal conditions.
|
||
Treatment of sensitive crop varieties may injure crops. To reduce the potential of crop injury, tank mix AFFINITY
|
||
TankMix herbicide with 2,4-D (ester formulations perform best – see "TANK MIXTURES" section of this label)
|
||
and apply after the crop is in the tillering stage of growth.
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
|
||
Weed control may be reduced if rainfall or snowfall occurs soon after application. Several hours of dry weather are
|
||
needed to allow AFFINITY TankMix herbicide to be sufficiently absorbed by weed foliage.
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide, which contains the active ingredients Thifensulfuron methyl and Tribenuron
|
||
methyl, is a group 2 herbicide based on the mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society of
|
||
America.
|
||
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to
|
||
one or more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include the use of multiple
|
||
herbicides with different sites of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or
|
||
other cultural practices.
|
||
Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for
|
||
resistance.
|
||
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed resistance
|
||
management program.
|
||
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should:
|
||
• Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed
|
||
sizes present.
|
||
• Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
|
||
• Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches).
|
||
• Apply full rates of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the specified
|
||
time (correct weed size) to minimize weed escapes.
|
||
• Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
|
||
• Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
|
||
• Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your FMC representative,
|
||
local retailer, or county extension agent.
|
||
• Contact your FMC representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to these
|
||
MOAs have been found in your region. DO NOT assume that each listed weed is being controlled by multiple sites
|
||
of action. Products with multiple active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum of weeds that are
|
||
controlled. Some weeds may be controlled by only one of the active ingredient in this product.
|
||
• If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than Group 2 and/or
|
||
use nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production.
|
||
• Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
|
||
- Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if
|
||
control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
- A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
|
||
- Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is
|
||
practical:
|
||
• Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control program.
|
||
• Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
|
||
• Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 2 herbicides.
|
||
• Avoid making more than two applications of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide and any other Group 2 herbicides
|
||
within a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping
|
||
spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.
|
||
• Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, including mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and
|
||
weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
|
||
• Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness.
|
||
• Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds.
|
||
• Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.

INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
|
||
FMC advises the use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs to control pests. This product may be used as
|
||
part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that can include biological, cultural, and genetic practices
|
||
aimed at preventing economic pest damage. Base the application of this product on IPM principles and practices
|
||
including field scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest identification, population monitoring, and
|
||
treating when target pest populations reach locally determined action thresholds. Consult your state cooperative
|
||
extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate action treatment
|
||
threshold levels for treating specific pest/crop systems in your area.

|
||
x DO NOT harvest within 45 days of the last application.
|
||
x DO NOT apply less than 0.6 oz/A of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide (0.015 lb/A thifensulfuron methyl
|
||
and 0.0038 lb/A tribenuron methyl) per acre unless otherwise specified by FMC.
|
||
x DO NOT apply more than 1.0 oz/A of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide in a single application (maximum
|
||
active ingredient per single application is 0.025 lb/A thifensulfuron methyl and 0.0063 lb/A tribenuron
|
||
methyl).
|
||
x DO NOT exceed two applications of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide per year in Wheat (including
|
||
durum), Barley and Triticale when using reduced application rates.
|
||
x DO NOT apply more than 1.8 oz/A of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide per year (maximum active
|
||
ingredient load per year is 0.045 lb/A thifensulfuron methyl and 0.0113 lb/A tribenuron methyl).
|
||
x The Minimum Retreatment Interval is 14 days.
|
||
x PHI is 7 days for forage, 30 days for hay, and 45 days for wheat, barley and triticale.
|
||
x AFFINITY TankMix herbicide must not be applied to wheat, barley, and triticale that is stressed by
|
||
severe weather conditions, drought (including low levels of subsoil moisture), low fertility, water-
|
||
saturated soil, disease, or insect damage, as crop injury may result. Risk of injury is greatest when crop
|
||
is in the 2 to 5- leaf stage. Severe winter stress, drought, disease, or insect damage following application
|
||
also may result in crop injury.
|
||
PRECAUTIONS in Wheat (including durum), Barley, and Triticale:
|
||
Carefully observe all sprayer cleanup instructions both prior to and after using this product, as spray tank residue
|
||
may damage crops other than wheat, barley, and triticale.
|
||
Wheat, barley, and triticale may differ in their response to various herbicides. FMC advises that you first consult
|
||
your state experiment station, university, or extension agent as to sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is
|
||
available, limit the initial use of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide to a small area.
|
||
TANK MIXTURES in Wheat (including durum), Barley, and Triticale:
|
||

|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may be applied in a 3-way tank mix with formulations of dicamba and 2,4-D or
|
||
MCP. Make application of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide plus 1/16 to 1/8 lb active ingredient dicamba (including 2
|
||
to 4 fluid ounces of Banvel® herbicide or 2 to 4 fluid ounces of Clarity® herbicide) plus 1/4 to 3/8 lb active
|
||
ingredient 2,4-D or MCP ester or amine per acre. Use higher rates when weed infestation is heavy. Nonionic
|
||
surfactant may be added to the mixture at 1/2 to 1 quart per 100 gal of spray solution (0.125 to 0.25% v/v); however,
|

|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide and a fluroxypyr containing herbicide may be tank mixed with 0.66 pint per acre of
|
||
Puma® 1EC herbicide for annual grass control in wheat or barley. See the Puma® 1EC herbicide label for specific
|
||
use directions, tank mixes, precautions and restrictions of use. This tank mix may also include MCP ester,
|
||
bromoxynil or bromoxynil/MCP, or “Starane®” branded herbicides for greater spectrum of broadleaf control - see
|
||
Puma® 1EC label for specific use directions and restrictions on tank mixes. Some reduction in annual grass control
|
||
may occur when optimum environmental conditions do not occur for several days prior to and after application --
|
||
including low moisture conditions, high and low temperatures, or low humidity.
|
||
With Other Grass Control Products
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide can be tank mixed with grass control products. Antagonism generally does not
|
||
occur. Under certain environmental conditions, however, antagonism to Group 1 graminicides can occur. This may
|
||
be reduced by using the higher rate of the graminicide. FMC advises that you first consult your state experiment
|
||
station, university, or extension agent, Agricultural dealer, or FMC representative as to the potential for antagonism
|
||
before using the mixture. If no information is available, limit the initial use of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide and
|
||
the grass product to a small area.
|
||
With Insecticides or Fungicides
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may be tank mixed or used sequentially with insecticides (or fungicides) registered
|
||
for use on cereal grains. However, under certain conditions (drought stress, or if the crop is in the 2-4 leaf stage),
|
||
tank mixes or sequential applications of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide with organophosphate insecticides
|
||
(including parathion) may produce temporary crop yellowing or, in severe cases, crop injury. The potential for crop
|
||
injury is greatest when wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures occur just prior to or soon after application. Test
|
||
these mixtures in a small area before treating large areas. Review all insecticide and fungicide labels for restrictions.
|
||
DO NOT apply AFFINITY TankMix herbicide within 60 days of crop emergence where an organophosphate
|
||
insecticide has been applied as an in-furrow treatment because crop injury may result.
|
||
DO NOT use AFFINITY TankMix herbicide plus products containing malathion, as crop injury will result.
|
||
With Liquid Nitrogen Solution Fertilizer
|
||
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions may be used as a carrier in place of water. Run a tank mix compatibility test
|
||
before mixing AFFINITY TankMix herbicide in fertilizer solution. AFFINITY TankMix herbicide must first be
|
||
completely dissolved in water and then added to liquid nitrogen solutions.
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide must first be added to water and allowed to completely dissolve (slurried) before
|
||
adding to liquid nitrogen solutions (e.g., 28-0-0, 32-0-0). Ensure that the agitator is running while the AFFINITY
|
||
TankMix herbicide is added. Use of this mixture may result in temporary crop yellowing and stunting.
|
||
If using low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer in the spray solution (less than 50% of the spray solution volume), the
|
||
addition of surfactant is necessary. Add surfactant at 1/2 pint -1 quart per 100 gal of spray solution (0.06 to 0.125%
|
||
v/v) based on local guidance.
|
||
When using high rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer in the spray solution, adding surfactant increases the risk of crop
|
||
injury. Consult your agricultural dealer, consultant, fieldsman, or FMC representative for specific instructions before
|
||
adding an adjuvant to these tank mixtures.
|
||
If 2,4-D or MCP is included with an AFFINITY TankMix herbicide and fertilizer mixture, ester formulations tend to
|
||
be more compatible (See manufacturer’s label). Additional surfactant may not be needed when using AFFINITY
|
||
TankMix herbicide in tank mix with 2,4-D ester or MCP ester and liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions. Consult your
|
||
agricultural dealer, consultant, field advisor, or FMC representative for specific instructions before adding an
|
||
adjuvant to these tank mixtures.
|
||
|
||
17
|
||
|
||
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions that contain sulfur can increase crop response.
|
||
DO NOT use low rates of liquid fertilizer as a substitute for a surfactant.
|
||
DO NOT use with liquid fertilizer solutions with a pH less than 3.0.
|
||

SPRAY ADJUVANTS
|
||
Include a spray adjuvant with applications of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide. An ammonium nitrogen fertilizer may
|
||
also be used.
|
||
DO NOT use low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution as a substitute for a surfactant. Always use a surfactant,
|
||
unless otherwise recommended. Antifoaming agents may be used if needed. Consult your Ag dealer or applicator,
|
||
local FMC fact sheets and technical bulletins prior to using an adjuvant system.
|
||
Select adjuvants that are authorized for use with all products in an AFFINITY TankMix herbicide tank mix.
|
||
Products must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients (40 CFR 1001).
|
||
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
|
||
• Apply 0.25 to 0.50% volume/volume (2 pints to 4 pints per 100 gal of spray solution).
|
||
• Surfactant products must contain at least 60% nonionic surfactant with a hydrophilic/lipophilic balance (HLB)
|
||
greater than 12. – See the "TANK MIXTURES" section of this label for additional information.
|
||
Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) - Petroleum or Modified Seed Oil (MSO)
|
||
• Apply at least 1% v/v (1 gal per 100 gal spray solution), or 2% under arid conditions. MSO adjuvants may be used
|
||
at 0.5% v/v if specified on local FMC product literature or service policies.
|
||
• Oil adjuvants must contain at least 80% high quality, petroleum (mineral) or modified vegetable seed oil with at
|
||
least 15% surfactant emulsifiers.
|
||
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 by FMC product management. Consult separate FMC technical
|
||
bulletins for detailed information before using adjuvant types not specified on this label.
|
||
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
|
||
• Use 2 qt/acre of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) with a surfactant, such as 28%N or 32%N, or 2
|
||
lb/acre of a spray-grade ammonium sulfate (AMS), with a surfactant. Use 4 qt/acre UAN or 4 lb/acre AMS under

||
• See TANK MIXTURES With Liquid Nitrogen Solution Fertilizers for instructions on using fertilizer as a carrier in
|
||
place of water.
|
||
|
||
21
|
||
|
||
APPLICATION TIMING
|
||
Wheat (Including Durum), Barley, Winter Oat and Triticale
|
||
Make applications after the crop is in the 2-leaf stage, but before the flag leaf is visible. DO NOT harvest within 45
|
||
days of the last application.
|
||
Spring Oat
|
||
Make applications after the crop is in the 3-leaf stage but before jointing. DO NOT use on "Ogle", "Porter" or
|
||
"Premier" varieties as crop injury can occur. DO NOT harvest within 45 days of the last application.
|
||
Pre-Plant Burndown
|
||
For burndown of emerged weeds, broadcast applications of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may be applied up
|
||
through planting, but before wheat (including durum), barley, or triticale plants emerge. AFFINITY TankMix
|
||
herbicide can be used as a burndown treatment prior to planting other crops. See "CROP ROTATION" for the time
|
||
interval required before planting.
|
||
Post Harvest
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide may be used as a burndown treatment to crop stubble when the majority of weeds
|
||
have emerged and are actively growing. (See the "CROP ROTATION" section of this label for additional
|
||
information).
|
||
Fallow
|
||
Apply AFFINITY TankMix herbicide in the spring or fall when the majority of weeds have emerged and are
|
||
actively growing. Generally, such applications are made in the spring or fall when most cereal applications are
|
||
made. (See the "CROP ROTATION" section of this label for additional information).
|
||
GROUND APPLICATION
|
||
For optimum spray distribution and thorough coverage, use flat-fan or low-volume flood nozzles.
|
||
• For best performance, select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets.
|
||
• 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.
|
||
• Overlaps or starting, stopping, slowing, and turning while spraying may result in crop injury.
|
||
• For flat-fan nozzles, use a spray volume of at least 5 gal per acre (GPA).
|
||
• For flood nozzles on 30" spacings, use at least 10 GPA, flood nozzles no larger than TK10 (or the equivalent), and
|
||
a pressure of at least 30 psi. For 40" nozzle spacings, use at least 13 GPA; for 60" spacings use at least 20 GPA. It is
|
||
essential to overlap the nozzles 100% for all spacings.
|
||
• "Raindrop RA" nozzles are not recommended for AFFINITY TankMix herbicide applications, as weed control
|
||
performance may be reduced.
|
||
• Use screens that are 50-mesh or larger.
|
||
AERIAL APPLICATION
|
||
Use nozzle types and arrangements that provide optimum spray distribution and maximum coverage.
|
||
x Use 2 to 5 GPA.
|
||
x Use at least 3 GPA in Idaho, Oregon, or Utah.
|
||
DO NOT apply AFFINITY TankMix herbicide by air in the State of New York.
|
||
When applying AFFINITY TankMix herbicide by air in areas adjacent to sensitive crops, use solid stream nozzles
|
||
oriented straight back. Adjust the swath to avoid spray drift damage to sensitive crops downwind and/or use ground
|
||
equipment to treat the border edge of fields. See the "SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT" section of this label.
|
||
PRODUCT MEASUREMENT
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide can be measured using the AFFINITY TankMix herbicide volumetric measuring
|
||
cylinder provided by FMC. The degree of accuracy of this cylinder varies by + 7.5%. For more precise
|
||
measurement, use scales calibrated in ounces.
|
||
|
||
22
|
||
|
||
PESTICIDE HANDLING
|
||
• Calibrate sprayers only with clean water away from the well site.
|
||
• Make scheduled checks of spray equipment.
|
||
• Ensure that all operation employees accurately measure pesticides.
|
||
• Mix only enough product for the job at hand.
|
||
• Avoid overfilling of spray tank.
|
||
• DO NOT discharge excess material on the soil at a single spot in the field, grove, or mixing/loading station.
|
||
• Dilute and agitate excess solution and apply at labeled rates or uses.
|
||
• Avoid storage of pesticides near well sites.
|
||
• When triple-rinsing the pesticide container, be sure to add the rinsate to the spray mix.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
DO NOT use with spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below pH 6.0 as rapid product degradation
|
||
can occur. AFFINITY TankMix herbicide must be completely dissolved in clean water before adding to spray
|
||
tanks that do not have continuous agitation during loading and mixing (This is common for airplanes with turbine
|
||
engines).
|
||
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water.
|
||
2. While agitating, add the required amount of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide.
|
||
3. Continue agitation until the AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is fully dissolved, at least 5 minutes.
|
||
4. Once the AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is fully dissolved, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with
|
||
water.
|
||
5. As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners and then add the required volume of spray adjuvant. Always add
|
||
spray adjuvant last. Antifoaming agents may be used.
|
||
6. Dispersed tank mix partners can settle if the tank mixture is not continually agitated. If settling occurs, thoroughly
|
||
re-agitate before using.
|
||
7. Apply AFFINITY TankMix herbicide spray mixture within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
|
||
8. If AFFINITY TankMix herbicide and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads, fully dissolve the
|
||
AFFINITY TankMix herbicide in clean water prior to adding to the tank.
|
||
GRAZING
|
||
Allow at least 7 days between application and grazing of treated forage. In addition, allow at least 7 days between
|
||
application and feeding of forage from treated areas to livestock. Allow at least 30 days between application and
|
||
feeding of hay from treated areas to livestock. Harvested straw may be used for bedding and/or feed. Allow at least
|
||
45 days between application and harvesting of grain.
|
||
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
|
||
For specific application equipment, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for additional information on GPA,
|
||
pressure, speed, nozzle types and arrangements, nozzle heights above the target canopy, etc.
|
||
Be sure to calibrate air or ground equipment properly before application. Select a spray volume and delivery system
|
||
that will ensure thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern with minimum drift. Use higher spray volumes to
|
||
obtain better coverage when crop canopy is dense. Avoid swath overlapping, and shut off spray booms while
|
||
starting, turning, slowing, or stopping, to avoid injury to the crop. DO NOT make applications using equipment
|
||
and/or spray volumes or during weather conditions that might cause spray to drift onto nontarget sites. For
|
||
additional information on spray drift refer to Spray Drift section of label.
|
||
Continuous agitation is not required for AFFINITY TankMix herbicide but may be required to keep tank-mix
|
||
partners in solution or suspension. Refer to tank-mix partner labels for additional information.
|
||
BEFORE SPRAYING AFFINITY TANKMIX HERBICIDE
|
||
The spray equipment must be clean before AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is sprayed. Follow the cleanup
|
||
procedures specified on the labels of the previously applied products. If no directions are provided, follow the steps
|
||
outlined in the "After Spraying AFFINITY TankMix herbicide" section of this label.
|
||
|
||
23
|
||
|
||
AT THE END OF THE DAY
|
||
It is advised that during periods when multiple loads of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide are applied, at the end of
|
||
each day of spraying, the interior of the tank be rinsed with fresh water and then partially filled, and the boom and
|
||
hoses flushed. This will prevent the buildup of dried pesticide deposits which can accumulate in the application
|
||
equipment.
|
||
AFTER SPRAYING AFFINITY TANKMIX HERBICIDE AND BEFORE SPRAYING CROPS
|
||
OTHER THAN WHEAT, BARLEY, OAT OR TRITICALE
|
||
To avoid subsequent injury to desirable crops, thoroughly clean all mixing and spray equipment immediately
|
||
following applications of AFFINITY TankMix herbicide as follows:
|
||
1. Empty the tank and drain the sump completely.
|
||
2. Spray the tank walls with clean water using a minimum volume of 10% of the tank volume. Circulate the water
|
||
through the lines, including all by-pass lines, for at least two minutes. Flush the boom well and empty the sprayer.
|
||
Completely drain the sump.
|
||
3. Repeat step 2.
|
||
4. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a bucket containing water.
|
||
The rinsate solution may be applied to the crop(s) specified on this label. DO NOT exceed the maximum-labeled use
|
||
rate. If cleaners are used, consult the cleaner label for rinsate disposal instructions. If no instructions are given,
|
||
dispose of the rinsate on site or at an approved waste disposal facility.
|
||
Notes:
|
||
1. Always start with a clean spray tank.
|
||
2. Steam-cleaning aerial spray tanks is advised to facilitate the removal of any caked deposits.
|
||
3. When AFFINITY TankMix herbicide is tank mixed with other pesticides, all cleanout procedures for each
|
||
product must be examined and the most rigorous procedure must be followed.
|
||
4. In addition to this cleanout procedure, all pre-cleanout guidelines on subsequently applied products must be
|
||
followed as per the individual labels.

|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT
|
||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||
• Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or crop
|
||
canopy unless making a turf, pasture, or rangeland application, in which case applicators may apply with a nozzle
|
||
height no more than 4 feet above the ground.
|
||
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or
|
||
coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
Boom-less Ground Applications:
|
||
• Applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1) for all applications.
|
||
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
Aerial Applications:
|
||
• DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater application
|
||
height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or
|
||
coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
• The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade diameter for
|
||
helicopters.
|
||
• Applicators must use one-half swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT ADVISORIES
|
||
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT.
|
||
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
|
||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest
|
||
control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications
|
||
are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||
• Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest
|
||
practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher
|
||
flow rate.
|
||
• Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and
|
||
droplet size.
|
||
• Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to
|
||
reduce drift.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recommendations for setting up nozzles.
|
||
Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
|
||
|
||
29
|
||
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide uniform coverage. For
|
||
ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
|
||
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. When applying aerially to crops, DO NOT release spray
|
||
at a height greater than 10 ft above the crop canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
|
||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the
|
||
shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.
|
||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
|
||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
|
||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
|
||
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of
|
||
an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft
|
||
smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions)
|
||
indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
|
||
Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
|
||
WIND
|
||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND
|
||
CONDITIONS.
|
||
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.
|
||
Handheld Technology Applications:
|
||
• Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
|
||
Boom-less Ground Applications
|
||
• Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
|
||
DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVES
|
||
Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is used,
|
||
read and carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additive’s label. If using an
|
||
additive that increases viscosity, ensure that the nozzles and other application equipment will function properly with
|
||
a viscous spray solution.
|
||
Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association
|
||
(CPDA).
