Groundwater Advisory
This product is known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of label use. 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 several weeks or more after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer
strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs
will reduce the potential loading of 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.
Windblown Soil Particles Advisory
This product 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 this product 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.
USERS SHOULD:
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon
as possible, wash thorou^ly and change into clean clothing.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants.
• Chemical resistant gloves made of any waterproof material including polyethylene or polyvinyl
chloride.
• Shoes plus socks.
Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintainingPPE. If no such instructions for washables exists,
use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PpE separately from other laundry.
Engineering Control Statements:
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the
Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6), the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
IMPORTANT: When reduced PPE is worn because a closed system is being used, handlers must be provided all
PPE specified above for "applicators and other handlers" and have such PPE immediately available for use in an
emergency, such as a spill or equipment break-down.

PR OD UCT IN FORMA TION
DPX-SBN49 herbicide is a water soluble granule that is used for selective postemergence weed control in wheat
(including durum), barley, triticale, oats and for post-harvest bumdown, fallow, and pre-plant bumdown weed
control. The best control is obtained when DPX-SBN49 herbicide is applied to young, actively growing weeds. The
use rate will depend on weed spectrum and size ofweedattime of application. The degree and duration of control
may depend on the weed spectrum and infestation intensity, weed size at application, and environmental
conditions at and following treatment.
DPX-SBN49 herbicide is noncorrosive, nonflammable, nonvolatile, and does not freeze. DPX-SBN49
herbicide needs to be mixed in water and applied as auniform broadcast spray.

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
DPX-SBN49 herbicide is absorbed through the foliage of broadleaf weeds, rapidly inhibiting their growth. Leaves of
susceptible plants appear chlorotic from 1 to 3 weeks after application and the growing point subsequently dies.
DPX-SBN49 herbicide provides the best control in vigorously growing crops that shade competitive weeds. Weed
control in areas of thin crop stand or seeding skips may not be as satisfactory. However, a crop canopy that is too dense
at application can intercept spray and reduce weed control.
DPX-SBN49 herbicide may injure crops that are stressed from adverse environmental conditions (including
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 withDPX-SBN49 herbicide under otherwise normal
conditions.
Treatment of sensitive crop varieties may injure crops. To reduce the potential of crop injury to cereals, tank mix
DPX-SBN49 herbicide with 2,4-D (ester formulations perform best-see the Tank Mixtures section of this label) and
apply after the crop is in the tillering stage of growth. It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all
products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and
directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions
for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. If the instructions on the tank mix partner
label conflicts with this DPX-SBN49 herbicide label, DO NOT use in a tank mixture with DPX-SBN49 herbicide.
In warm, moist conditions, the expression of herbicide symptoms is accelerated in weeds; in cold, dry conditions,
expression of herbicide symptoms is delayed. In addition, weeds hardened-off by drought stress are less susceptible to
DPX-SBN49 herbicide.
DPX-SBN49 herbicide is rainfast in 4 hours.
RESTRICTIONS
• Do not apply to wheat, barley, oats or triticale underseeded with another crop.
• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system,
• Injury to or loss of desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the following;
- Do not apply, drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants or on areas where their roots
may extend, or in locations where the chemical may be washed or moved into contact with their roots.
- Do not use on lawns, walks, driveways, crtennis courts. Prevent drift of spray to desirable plants.
• WhenusingDPX-SBN49 herbicide in tank mixes or sequential applications with otherproducts containing
tribenuron-methyl and thifensulfuron-methyl, do not exceed the following limits:
- For all uses the maximum active ingredient for tribenuron methyl is 0.0313 lb ai/A per year.
- For all uses the maximum active ingredient for thifensulfuron methyl is 0.0469 lb ai/A per year.
PRECAUTIONS
• Injury to or loss of adjacent sensitive crops and 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 or barley.
• Varieties of wheat (including durum), barley, oats and triticale may differ in their response to various
herbicides. FMC advices that you first consult your state experiment station, university, or extension agent as
to crop sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is available, limit the initial use to a small area.
• Under certain conditions including heavy rainfall, prolonged cold weather, or wide fluctuations in day/night
temperatures prior to or soon after DPX-SBN49 herbicide application, temporary discoloration and/or crop injury
may occur. To reduce the potential of crop injiuy, tank mix DPX-SBN49 herbicide with 2,4-D (ester formulations
perform best - see the "TANK MIXTURES" section of this label) and apply after the crop is in the tillering stage of
growth. It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use.
Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved
in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each
product in the tank mixture. If the instructions on the tank mix partner label conflicts with this DPX-SBN49
5
herbicide label, DO NOT use in a tank mixture with DPX-SBN49 herbicide.
• DPX-SBN49 herbicide may not be applied to wheat, barley, oats or triticale that is stressed by severe weather
conditions, drought, 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.
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
DPX-SBN49 herbicide, which contains the active ingredients tnbenurou-methyl and ihifensulfiiron-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 bumdown herbicide application or tillage.
• Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches).
• Apply full rates of DPX-SBN49 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 MO As 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 ingredients 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 DPX-SBN49 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, such as 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.

LABEL USES
WHEAT, BARLEY, OATSAND TRITICALE
APPLICATION TIMING
Apply DPX-SBN49 herbicide after the crop is in the 2-leaf stage, but before the flag leaf is visible.
For spring oats, 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.
Since DPX-SBN49 herbicide has very little or no soil activity, it controls only those weeds that have
germinated; therefore, apply DPX-SBN49 herbicide when all or most of the weeds have germinated. Annual
broadleaf weeds need to be past the cotyledon stage, actively growing, and less than 4" tall or wide.
DO NOT harvest within 45 days of the last application.
CEREAL USE RATE
Use 0.6 oz DPX-SBN49 herbicide per acre (except oats) for heavy infestation of those weeds listed under the
"WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of this label or when application timing and environmental conditions are
marginal (see "BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS").
Use 0.3 to 0.6 oz DPX-SBN49 herbicide per acre (except oats) for light infestation of the weeds listed under the
"WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of this label. Conditions at application need to be optimum for effective
treatment of these weeds.
Two applications of DPX-SBN49 herbicide may be made per yearprovided the total amount does not exceed 0.6
oz per acre. Allow at least 14 days between treatments._______________________________________________
DPX-SBN49 herbicide (oz/A)
For oats, apply 0.25 oz of DPX-SBN49 herbicide per acre for control of light populations of the weeds listed in
Weeds Controlled table. In oats, DPX-SBN49 herbicide must be tank mixed with another registered herbicide.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
PRODUCT MEASUREMENT
DPX-SBN49 herbicide maybe measured using the DPX-SBN49 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.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water.
2. While agitating, add the required amount of DPX-SBN49 herbicide.
3. Continue agitation until the DPX-SBN49 herbicide is fully dispersed, at least 5 minutes.
4. Once the DPX-SBN49 herbicide is fully dispersed, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with water.
With Postemergence Grass Herbicide
When used in tank mixture with GoldSky herbicide, Everest brand products (reference the “Registered Products
Reference in this Label” table for suggested Everest brand products), or Rimfire Max herbicide, DPX-SBN49
herbicide will result in improved control of yellow and green foxtail.
Consult tank mix partner labeling for any adj vuant, rate, and grass weed height limitations, as reduced grass control
mayresult whenusingtankmixtureswith some WSSA Group 1 (ACCase) herbicides.
With Insecticide
DPX-SBN49 herbicide may be tank mixed or used sequentially with insecticides registered for use on cereal crops.
However, under certain conditions (drought stress, or if the crop is in the 2-4 leaf stage), tank mixes or sequential
applications of DPX-SBN49 herbicide with organophosphate insecticides (including Lorsban brands, reference the
“Registered Products Reference in this Label” table for suggested Lorsban brand products) 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.
DO NOT apply DPX-SBN49 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 DPX-SBN49 herbicide plus Malathion because crop injury may result.
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 (green chop) from treated areas to livestock. Allow at least 30 days between
application and feeding of hay from treated areas to livestock. Allow at least 45 days between application and
harvesting of grain. Harvested straw may be used for bedding and/or feed.
CROP ROTATION
Labeled crops may be planted at specified time intervals following application of labeled rates of DPX-SBN49
herbicide. Use the time intervals listed below to determine the required time interval before planting.

DPX-SBN49 herbicide needs to be thoroughly mixed with water beforeadding any othermaterial.
5. As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners (if desired) then add the required volume of spray adjuvant. Always
add spray adjuvant last. Antifoaming agents may be used. DO NOT use with spray additives that alter the pH of
the spray solution below pH 6.0 as rapid product degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 7.0 and higher
allow for optimum stability of DPX- SBN49 herbicide.
6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling will occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-agitate before using.
7. Apply DPX-SBN49 herbicide spray mixture within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
8. If DPX-SBN49 herbicide and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads, pre-slurry the DPX-SBN49
herbicide in clean water prior to adding to the tank. This will prevent the tank mix partner from interfering with
the dissolution of the DPX-SBN49 herbicide.
APPLICATION METHOD
GROUND APPLICATION
For optimum spray distribution and thorough coverage, use flat-fan or low-volume flood nozzles.
• For flat-fan nozzles, use a spray volume ofatleastS gal per acre (GPA).
• For flood nozzles on 30" spacing, use flood nozzles no larger than TK 10 (orthe equivalent), a pressure of at least
30 psi and a spray volume of at least 10 GPA only. For 40" nozzle spacing, use at least 13 GPA; for 60" spacing
use at least 20 GPA. It is essential to overlap the nozzles 100% for all spacings.
• "Raindrop RA" nozzles are not advised £rDPX-SBN49 herbicide applications, as weed control performance maybe
reduced.
• Use screens that are 50-mesh or larger.
AERIAL APPLICATION
Do not apply DPX-SBN49 herbicide by air in the state of New York.
See the Spray Drift Management section of this label.
APPLICATIONS WITH LIQUID NITOGEN SOLUTION FERTILEZER
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions may be used as a carrier in place of water. Run a tank mix compatibility test before
mixing DPX-SBN49 herbicide in fertilizer solution. DPX-SBN49 herbicide must first be slurried with water and then
added to liquidnitrogen solutions (e.g,, 28-0-0,32-0-0). Ensure that the agitator is running while the DPX-SBN49
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 0.5 pt -1 qtper 100 gal ofspray solution (0.06 -0.25% v/v) based
on local guidance.
When using high rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution in the spray solution, adding surfactant increases the risk of
crop injury. If 2,4-D or MCPA is included withDPX-SBN49 herbicide and fertilizer mixture, ester formulations tend
to be more compatible (see manufacturer s label). Additional surfactant may not be needed when using DPX-SBN49
herbicide in tank mix with 2,4-D ester or MCPA ester and liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions. Consult your
agricultural dealer, consultant, field advisor, or FMC representative for guidance before adding an adjuvant to these
tank mixtures.
Note: In certain areas east of the Mississippi river unacceptable crop response may occur with use of straight or dilute
nitrogen fertilizer carrier solutions where cold temperatures or widely fluctuating day/night temperatures exist. In
these areas consult your agricultural dealer, consultant, field advisor, or FMC representative for guidance before using
nitrogen fertilizer carrier solutions.
DO NOT use low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution as a substitute for surfactant.
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions that contain sulfur can increase crop response.
DO NOT use with liquid fertilizer solutions with a pH less than 3.0.
SPRA Y EQUIPMENT
For specific application equipment, refer to the manufacturers 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.
14
turning, slowing, or stopping, to avoid injury to the crop.
DO NOT make applications using equipment and. br 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
Management section of label.
Continuous agitation is not required to keep DPX-SBN49 herbicide in suspension but may be required to keep tank
mix partners in solution or suspension. Refer to tank mix partner labels for additional information.
BEFORE SPRAYING DPX-SBN49 herbicide
The spray equipment must be clean before DPX-SBN49 herbicide is sprayed. Follow the cleanup procedures specified
on the labels of the previously applied products. If no directions are provided, follow the six steps outlined in the
After Spraying DPX-SBN49 herbicide section of this label.
AT THE END OF THE DAY
When multiple loads of DPX-SBN49 herbicide are applied, it is advised that 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 DPX-SBN49 HERBICIDE AND BEFORE SPRAYING CROPS OTHER THAN
WHEAT, BARLEY, OATS, AND TRITICALE
To avoid subsequent injury to desirable crops, thoroughly clean all mixing and spray equipment
immediately following applications ofDPX-SBN49 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 abucket containing water. The rinsate solution may be
applied back 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. Steam-cleaning aerial spray tanks is advised to facilitate the removal of any caked deposits.
2. When DPX-SBN49 herbicide is tank mixed with other pesticides, all cleanout procedures for each product need to
be examined and the most rigorous procedure need to be followed.
3. Follow any pre-cleanout guidelines advised on other product labels.
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT

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.
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.

TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
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 additives 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 Council of Producers & Distributors of
Agrotechnology (CPDA).
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.

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
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.
