effective label rate.
The recommended use rates of this product and the other herbicides labeled for use in tank mixtures with
this product generally vary with soil texture. Unless soil texture is specifically named, rate tables
throughout this label refer to only three soil textural groups: coarse, medium and fine. The following is a
complete listing of soil textures included in each of these three soil textural groups:
SOIL TEXTURAL GROUP SOIL TEXTURE
COARSE: sand, loamy sand, sandy loam
MEDIUM: loam, silt loam, silt, sandv clav loam
FINE: siltv clav loam, clav loam, sandv clav, siltv clav, clay
Refer to the above table to determine the corresponding soil textural group for the soil to be treated.
MIXING, SPRAYING AND
HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
Direct contact or exposure to Partner or spray mixtures of Partner should be minimized. The following
instructions for location and repairing equipment should be in order to minimize this exposure. Review the
protective clothing requirements as listed in the "PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS· section of this label
(front panel) and do not use this product until you have the necessary protective clothing.
Equipment Cleaning & Repair
Cleaning and repair of transfer systems and application equipment is a source of exposure to this
product. Care should be taken to minimize exposure during cleaning and repair of application equipment.
6
Whenever possible, these systems or equipment should be rinsed before being cleaned or repaired.
When repairs must be made during transfer or application, the equipment should be shutdown, and
special care taken to avoid contact with the pesticide.
Always predetermine the compatibility of Partner or labeled tank mixtures of Partner with water carrier or
sprayable fluid fertilizer carrier by mixing small proportional quantities in advance. See the "STANDARD
SPRAYABLE FLUID FERTILIZER COMPATIBILITY TEST" section in this label to determine the
compatibility of this product and the labeled tank mixtures recommended for use with sprayable fluid
fertilizer carrier.
NOTE: Partner and all tank mixtures listed for corn and soybeans in the "DIRECTIONS FOR USE"
section may be applied in sprayable fluid fertilizers. DO NOT apply Partner or labeled tank mixtures of
Partner in sprayable fluid fertilizers on any other crops.
Mix Partner or labeled tank mixture of Partner with the appropriate carrier as follows:
1. Place a 50 mesh screen or wetting basket over filling port.
2. Through the screen, fill the sprayer tank one-half full with the appropriate carrier.
3. If a compatibility agent is necessary, add it to the carrier while maintaining agitation to improve
mixing or to prevent the formation of undesirable and unsprayable gels or precipitates. Use only
compatibility agents cleared by FDA for this use. Read and follow all directions for use, cautionary
statements and all other information appearing on the selected compatibility agent label. Check for
adequate agitation.
4. Remove the screen prior to adding this product to the spray tank. Mixing of water dispersible
granule formulations in sprayable fluid fertilizer carriers may be enhanced by pre-slurrying with
water and adding slowly through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation.
5. If a wettable powder or dry flowable formulation is used, make a slurry with water and add it slowly
through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation.
6. If a flowable formulation is used, add slowly through the screen into the tank. Mixing and
compatibility may be improved when the flowable is premixed one part flowable with one part water
and added to the tank in diluted form.
7. Make a slurry of Partner with water. Add it slowly through the screen into the tank.
8. Complete filling the sprayer tank with carrier. If Gramoxone™ Extra is used, add the required
amount near the end of the filling process. Remove hose from tank immediately after filling to avoid
siphoning back into the carrier source.
Maintain good agitation at all times until the contents of the tank are sprayed. NOTE: If the spray mixture
is expected to set unagitated for 8 hours or more (overnight), add a resuspendability agent prior to
shutdown (i.e., Hold-UpTM at 8 ounces per 100 gallons of spray solution) or nitrogen liquid fertilizer
solution (i.e., 28 percent) at 4 gallons per 100 gallons of spray solution. Allow resuspendability agent to
mix with spray mixture before shutting off agitation. Agitate the spray mixture thoroughly to resuspend
settled product before resuming spraying.
Keep by-pass line on or near bottom of tank to minimize foaming. Screen size in nozzle or line strainers
should be no finer than 50 mesh. Carefully select proper nozzle to avoid spraying a fine mist. Check for
even distribution of spray droplets. To reduce loss of the chemical due to drift of a fine mist, apply at
nozzle pressures below 40 psi.
STANDARD SPRAYABLE FLUID

FERTILIZER COMPATIBILITY TEST
Herbicides may not always mix evenly throughout a sprayable fluid fertilizer or the components may
separate too quickly to make their combined use of practical value. This may be due to certain
characteristics of the different fluid fertilizers. A simple test using small quantities of the components is
suggested to provide compatibility potential.
The test follows:
A. Materials Required For A Compatibility Test
1. Two one-quart jars with lid or stopper (marked ''with" and "without").
2. TEAspoons (for a more exacting test, a five to ten milliliter (ml) pipette or graduated cylinder is
desirable).
3. Sprayable fluid fertilizer to be tested.
4. The herbicide chemicals to be mixed.
5. A compatibility agent (the purpose of the adjuvant is to help keep the fertilizer and crop protection
chemical in suspension, if this assistance is needed).
B. Procedure
1 . Add one pint of the sprayable fluid fertilizer that will be used or other herbicide carrier to each jar
marked "with" and "without".
Add One Pint Liquid Fertilizer
To Two Quart Jars.
WITH WITHOUT
2. To the jar marked ''with", add 1/4 TEAspoon or 1.2 milliliters of a suitable compatibility agent; shake
gently for five to ten seconds to mix (1/4 TEAspoon in one pint is the equivalent of two pints per
100 gallons of liquid fertilizer).
To Jar Marked "With"
Add Compatibility Agent
And Shake To Mix.
WITH WITHOUT
3. To each jar add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s) listed in the following tables. If more than
one is used, add them separately with the wettable powders or dry flowables added first, flowables
second and liquid last. Shake gently five to ten seconds after each addition.

This compatibility test is designed for 25 gallons of spray per acre. For changes in spray volume or
herbicide rates, make appropriate changes in the ingredients of the test. Regardless of spray volume, the
amount of compatibility agent should be equal to two or three pints (two pints = 1/4 TEAspoon or 1.2
milliliters, three pints = 3/8 TEAspoon or 1.8 milliliters per pint of sprayable fluid fertilizer) per 100 gallons
of liquid fertilizer.
C. Observations and Decisions
1. If the herbicide(s) and the sprayable fluid fertilizer are compatible.
2. If a compatibility agent is necessary.
Five minutes after the final addition and mixing, observe both jars for the formation of large flakes, sludge,
gels or other precipitates. Observe if the herbicide(s) cannot be physically mixed with the liquid fertilizer
but remains as small oily particles in the solution.
If incompatibility in any form described above occurs in the jar ''with" the compatibility agent added, the
liquid fertilizer and the herbicide(s) should not be used together in the same spray tank.
If incompatibility as described above occurs in the jar "without" the adjuvant but not in the jar "with"
adjuvant, the use of a compatibility adjuvant is recommended.
Both jars should be allowed to stand and be observed periodically for one-half hour. If the separate layers
of liquid fertilizer and additives can be resuspended by shaking, commercial application is possible. An
emulsifiable concentrate normally will go to the top aiter standing; WDG's or dry flowables will either settle
to the bottom of the tank or jar, or float to the top, depending upon the density of the fertilizers.
If the herbicide(s) is compatible with fluid fertilizer in the foregoing test without having to use a
compatibility agent, fluid fertilizer may be used for the premixing. If it is not compatible without the
compatibility agent, the herbicide(s) should be premixed with water before adding to the spray tank.

APPLICATION SYSTEMS
Spray Drift Management
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.
Do not allow spray to drift from the application site and contact people, structures people occupy at any
time and the associated property, parts and recreation areas, non-target crops, aquatic and wetland
areas, woodlands, pastures, rangelands, or animals.
For ground boom applications, apply with nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop
canopy and when wind speed is 10 mph or less at the application site as measured by an anemometer.
Use medium or coarser spray according to ASAE 572 definition for standard nozzles or VMD for spinning
atomizer nozzles.
The applicator also must use all other measures necessary to control drift.
Ground Broadcast Treatment-Apply this product and the labeled tank mixtures in 15 or more gallons of
solution per acre using broadcast boom equipment. The carrier may be either water or sprayable fluid
fertilizer as specified for the crop to be treated in the "DIRECTIONS FOR USE" section of this label. Do
not apply during periods of gusty winds, when winds are in excess of 15 mph or when other conditions
favoring drift exist.

APPLICATION TIMING AND METHODS
Early Preplant Surface-This product and some labeled tank mixtures of this product may be applied in
no-till and other conservation tillage systems before weeds emerge and up to 45 days before planting
certain crops. Split applications can be made 30 to 45 days prior to planting, with 60 percent of the
recommended broadcast rate applied initially and the remaining 40 percent applied at planting.
Applications made less than 30 days prior to planting can be made either as a split or as a single
application. Refer to the individual crop to determine if early preplant application is recommended. If
weeds are present at the time of application, apply this product in tank mixture with an appropriate
contact herbicide. Observe directions for use, precautions and restrictions on the label of the contact
herbicide. During the planting operation, be careful not to move untreated soil to the surface or move
treated soil out of the row, as weed control may be reduced.
Preplant Incorporation-This product and many of the labeled tank mixtures may be mixed into the soil
using shallow incorporation equipment any time within 7 days prior to planting. Refer to the crop to be
10
treated in the "DIRECTIONS FOR USE" section of this label to determine if preplant incorporation is
recommended. Apply the recommended treatment rate to the soil surface as a broadcast application.
Precipitation or irrigation is required to bring incorporated herbicide treatments into contact with
germinating weed seedlings. The amount of precipitation or irrigation required depends on existing soil
moisture, soil type and percent organic matter content, but 1/3 to 3/4 inch is normally adequate. If weeds
emerge after treatment, rotary hoe or shallowly cultivate immediately to improve performance.
NOTE: Do not incorporate unless specifically recommended in this label for the crop and herbicide
treatment selected. Incorporation of this product and its labeled tank mixtures on coarse soil types may
reduce length of weed control due to leaching with rainfall or irrigation.
1-Pass Incorporation (Surface Blend): Shallowly incorporate (Surface Blend) the treatment into the
upper 1 to 2 inches of the soil. Equipment should be operated at manufacturer's designed speed for
incorporation to ensure adequate mixing and distribution of the herbicide treatment in the soil.
Equipment design, including any drag attachments, must be adequate to avoid soil ridging which may
result in streaked or reduced weed control. Soil conditions, including moisture content and crop residue
levels, must be suitable to allow thorough and uniform mixing with the equipment used for 1-pass
incorporation.
Contact Monsanto Company for additional information regarding recommended equipment and methods
for Surface Blend application.
2-Pass Incorporation: When 2-pass incorporation is used, shallowly incorporate the herbicide treatment
into the upper 1 to 2 inches of the soil with eqUipment set to work the soil NO DEEPER THAN 4 INCHES.
The second pass must be made at an angle to and no deeper than the first pass to ensure proper
distribution of the herbicide treatment in the soil.
Preemergence Surface Application-This product and all labeled tank mixtures except Partner plus
EptamTM, Partner plus Trefian™ and Partner plus Command™ may be applied to the soil surface aiter
planting and prior to either crop or weed emergence. Apply within 5 days of last preplant tillage. If weeds
emerge after treatment, or if treatment is applied more than 5 days aiter last preplant tillage, rotary hoe or
shallowly cultivate immediately to improve performance. Precipitation or overhead sprinkler irrigation is
required after application to move the herbicide treatment into the weed germination zone. The amount of
precipitation or overhead sprinkler irrigation required depends on existing soil moisture, soil type and
percent organic matter content, but 1/3 to 3/4 inch is normally adequate. Perfonmance is improved when
moisture is received within 7 days after application and prior to weed emergence. High-intensity or
excessive rainfall or excessive irrigation after application may reduce control.
Postemergence Surface Application-This product and certain tank mixtures may be applied to specific
crops at the ground cracking stage of the crop or after crop emergence. Refer to the specific treatment
and crop intended in the "DIRECTIONS FOR USE" section of the label to determine if postemergence
applications to the crop are recommended and to determine the proper weed and crop growth stage
limitations. Precipitation or overhead sprinkler irrigation is required after application to move the herbicide
treatment into the weed germination zone to control unemerged weeds. The amount of precipitation or
irrigation required depends on existing soil moisture, soil type and percent organic matter content, but 1/3
to 3/4 inch is normally adequate. If weeds emerge after treatment, rotary hoe or shallowly cultivate
immediately to improve performance.
NOTE: Do not apply this product postemergence to corn in Texas.
Cultivation Information-Delay cultivation after application for as long as possible unless weeds or
grasses emerge. Shallowly cultivate or rotary hoe immediately if weeds or grasses emerge. If cultivation
is necessary because of soil crusting or compaction, set equipment shallow and minimize lateral soil
11
movement to avoid dilution or displacement of the herbicide treatment. Only after weeds emerge in the
treated band. set cultivator to throw soil into the row covering the band.

TANK MIXTURES
AT-PLANTING APPLICATIONS
When applied as directed under the conditions described, these tank mixtures control many emerged
annual weeds, suppress many emerged perennial weeds and give preemergence control of many annual
grasses and weeds when corn will be planted directly into a cover crop, established sod or in previous
crop residues. These tank mixtures will not control regrowth from perennial weeds.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
Refer to specific product labels for crop rotation restrictions and cautionary statements of all products
used in the tank mixture.
For mixing instructions, see the "MIXING, SPRAYING AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS· section of this
label.
Partner and the following tank mixtures can be tank mixed with Roundup®, Gramoxone Extra and/or 2,4-
D.
PARTNERPARTNER plus AT.RAZINE PARTNER plus PRINCEPPARTNER plus ATRAZINE
plusPRINCEP
Apply these tank mixtures with Roundup or 2,4-D (amine or low-volatile ester) in 10 to 20 gallons of water
or 10 to 60 gallons of nitrogen solution per acre, or these tank mixtures with Gramoxone Extra in 20 to 60
gallons of water or clear liquid fertilizer per acre immediately before, during or aiter planting, but BEFORE
CROP EMERGENCE. As density of stubble, crop residue or weeds increases, spray gallonage and rate
should be increased within the recommended ranges to ensure complete coverage. In the absence of
emerged vegetation, delete the Roundup, Gramoxone Extra or 2,4-D portion of these tank mixtures.
NOTE: The term "Roundup" includes those Roundup products registered for the applications
recommended within this label. The application rates given are based on products containing 3
pounds acid equivalent of glyphosate in one gallon of product. Formulations containing other
concentrations of glyphosate must have their rates adjusted to be equivalent with the 3 pound
acid equivalent formulations.
APPROVED APPLICATION SYSTEMS
Ground-Broadcast boom
Reference: The "APPLICATION SYSTEMS" section of this label provides detailed information on the
application of these products using the system selected.
CONTROL OR SUPPRESSION
OF EMERGED WEEDS
ATTENTION
27
AVOID DRIFT-EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN APPLYING THESE TANK MIXTURES TO
PREVENT INJURY TO DESIRABLE PLANTS AND CROPS. Do not allow spray mist to drift since even
minute quantities of spray can cause severe damage or destruction to nearby crops, plants or other areas
on which treatment is not intended. Do not apply when winds are gusty or in excess of 5 mph or when
other conditions, including lesser wind velocities, will allow drift to occur. When spraying, avoid
combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist) which are more likely to
drift.
ROUNDUP
Annual Weeds-Apply 1 to 1.5 pints of Roundup per acre in these tank mixtures when weeds are less
than 6 inches tall. Use 2 pints of Roundup per acre for control of fall panicum, barnyardgrass, crabgrass
and shattercane up to 2 inches tall; Pennsylvania smartweed up to 6 inches tall; other annual weeds 6 to
12 inches tall. For emerged annual weeds controlled, see the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the
label for Roundup.
Perennial Weeds-At normal application dates in minimum tillage systems, perennial weeds may not be at
the proper stage of growth for control. See the "GENERAL INFORMATION" section of the label for
Roundup for the proper stage of growth for perennial weeds. Use of 2 to 4 quarts of Roundup per acre in
the above mixtures under these conditions provides top kill and reduces competition from many emerged
perennial grasses and broad leaf weeds.
For emerged perennial weeds controlled see the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the label for
Roundup. To obtain control of perennial weeds, follow recommendations on the label for Roundup for
stage of growth and rate of application.
USE OF THIS MIXTURE FOR BERMUDAGRASS OR JOHNSONGRASS CONTROL IS NOT
RECOMMENDED.
NOTE: When using these tank mixtures, do not exceed 4 quarts of Roundup herbicide per acre.
Ammonium Sulfate-The addition of ammonium sulfate in the spray solution may increase the
performance of Roundup tank mixtures on emerged annual weeds under adverse growing conditions.
When using ammonium sulfate, add 2 percent dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 17 pounds per 100
gallons of water. Ammonium sulfate should be added to the water in the spray tank and completely
dissolved prior to adding the herbicide or surfactant. Do not mix ammonium sulfate in fluid fertilizer
solutions.
If ammonium sulfate is added directly to the spray tank, add slowly with agitation. Adding too quickly may
clog outlet lines. Nozzle tip plugging may result from the use of low-quality ammonium sulfate. To
determine quality, perform a jar test by adding 1/3 cup of ammonium sulfate to 1 gallon of water and
agitate for one minute. If undissolved sediment is observed, predissolve the ammonium sulfate in water
and filter prior to adding to the spray tank.
Following use of ammonium sulfate, thoroughly rinse the spray system with clean water to reduce
corrosion.
Surfactants-Nonionic surfactants which are labeled for use with herbicides may be used with Roundup.
Do not reduce rates of Roundup when adding surfactant. Use 0.5 percent surfactant concentration (2
quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) when using surfactants which contain at least 50 percent active
ingredient or a 1 percent surfactant concentration (4 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) for those
surfactants containing less than 50 percent active ingredient. Read and carefully observe surfactant
cautionary statements and other information appearing on the surfactant label.
GRAMOXONE
28
When used as directed. Gramoxone Extra or labeled tank mixtures controls many emerged annual weeds
and suppresses many emerged perennial weeds.
Broadcast Treatment-Apply 1.5 to 2.5 pints of Gramoxone Extra in these tank mixtures immediately
before, during or after planting but BEFORE CROP EMERGENCE. Use the 2.5 pint rate if any weeds are
4 to 6 inches. As density of stubble, crop residue or weeds increases, spray gallonage should be
increased within the recommended range for complete coverage. Add a non ionic spreader surfactant
(approved for use on crops) containing at least 75 percent surfactant active agent at 8 ounces per 100
gallons of diluted spray. REFER TO THE GRAMOXONE EXTRA LABEL FOR PRECAUTIONARY
STATEMENTS.
2,4-0
When used as directed, 2,4-0 in labeled tank mixtures controls many emerged annual and perennial
broadleaf weeds. For emerged weeds controlled, see the "WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the label
for 2,4-0.
Broadcast Treatment-Apply 1 to 2 pints of 2,4-0 (amine or low-volatile ester) in these tank mixtures.
Applications should be made 7 to 14 days before planting or 3 to 5 days after planting but BEFORE
CORN EMERGES. As density of stubble, crop residue or weeds increases, spray gallonage should be
increased within the recommended range for complete coverage.
DO NOT use 2,4-0 on light, sandy soils, or where soil moisture is inadequate for normal weed growth.
Observe all precautions and limitations on the 2,4-0 label booklet.

TANK MIXTURES
AT·PLANTING APPLICATIONS
Preemergence surface applications must be made ONLY to grain sorghum planted with seed that has
been properly treated with a seed protectant or safener.
When applied as directed under the conditions described, these tank mixtures control many emerged
annual weeds, suppress many emerged perennial weeds and give preemergence control of many annual
grasses and weeds when grain sorghum (milo) will be planted directly into a cover crop, established sod
or in previous crop residues. These tank mixtures will not control regrowth from perennial weeds.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
Refer to specific labels for crop rotation restriction and cautionary statements of all products used in the
tank mixture.
For mixing instructions, see the "MIXING, SPRAYING AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS· section of this
label.
Partner and the following tank mixtures can be tank mixed with Roundup or Gramoxone Extra.
Apply the tank mixtures with Roundup in 10 to 20 gallons of water or 10 to 60 gallons of nitrogen solution
per acre, or the tank mixtures with Gramoxone Extra in 20 to 60 gallons of water or clear liquid fertilizer
per acre immediately before, during or after planting, but BEFORE CROP EMERGENCE. As density of
stubble, crop residue or weeds increases, spray gallonage and rate should be increased within the
recommended ranges to insure complete coverage. In the absence of emerged vegetation, delete the
Roundup or Gramoxone Extra portion of these tank mixtures.
NOTE: The tenn "Roundup" includes those Roundup products registered for the applications
recommended within this label. The application rates given are based on products containing 3
pounds acid equivalent of glyphosate in one gallon of product. Fonnulations containing other
concentrations of glyphosate must have their rates adjusted to be equivalent with the 3 pound
acid equivalent fonnulations.
APPROVED APPLICATION SYSTEMS
Ground-Broadcast boom
39
Reference: The "APPLICATION SYSTEMS" section of this label provides detailed information on the
application of this product using the system selected.
CONTROL OR SUPPRESSION
OF EMERGED WEEDS
ATIENTION
AVOID DRIFT - EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN APPLYING THESE TANK MIXTURES TO
PREVENT INJURY TO DESIRABLE PLANTS AND CROPS. Do not allow spray mist to drift since even
minute quantities of spray can cause severe damage or destruction to nearby crops, plants or other areas
on which treatment is not intended. Do not apply when winds are gusty or in excess of 5 miles per hour or
when other conditions, including lesser wind velocities, will allow drift to occur. When spraying avoid
combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist) which are more likely to
drift.
ROUNDUP
Annual Weeds-Apply 1 to 1.5 pints of Roundup per acre in these tank mixtures when weeds are less the
6 inches tall. Use 2 pints of Roundup per acre for control of fall panicum, barnyardgrass, crabgrass and
shattercane up to 2 inches tall; Pennsylvania smartweed up to 6 inches tall; other annual weeds 6 to 12
inches tall. For emerged annual weeds controlled, see the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the label
for Roundup.
Perennial Weeds-At normal application dates in minimum tillage systems, perennial weeds may not be
at the proper stage of growth for control. See the "GENERAL INFORMATION" section of the label for
Roundup for the proper stage of growth for perennial weeds. Use of 2 to 4 quarts of Roundup per acre in
the above mixtures under these conditions provides top kill and reduces competition from many emerged
perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds.
For emerged perennial weeds controlled, see the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the label for
Roundup. To obtain control of perennial weeds, follow the recommendations on the label for Roundup for
stage of growth and rate of application.
USE OF THIS MIXTURE FOR BERMUDAGRASS OR JOHNSONGRASS CONTROL IS NOT
RECOMMENDED.
NOTE: When using these tank mixtures, do not exceed 4 quarts of Roundup herbicide per acre.
Ammonium Sulfate-The addition of ammonium sulfate in the spray solution may increase the
performance of Roundup tank mixtures on emerged annual weeds under adverse growing conditions.
When using ammonium sulfate, add 2 percent dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 17 pounds per 100
gallons of water. Ammonium sulfate should be added to the water in the spray tank and completely
dissolved prior to adding the herbicide or surfactant. Do not mix ammonium sulfate in fluid fertilizer
solutions.
If ammonium sulfate is added directly to the spray tank, add slowly with agitation. Adding too quickly may
clog outlet lines. Nozzle tip plugging may result from the use of low-quality ammonium sulfate. To
determine quality, perform a jar test by adding 1/3 cup of ammonium sulfate to 1 gallon of water and
agitate for one minute. If undissolved sediment is observed, predissolve the ammonium sulfate in water
and filter prior to adding to the spray tank.
40
Following use of ammonium sulfate, thoroughly rinse the spray system with clean water to reduce
corrosion.
Surfactants-Nonionic surfactants which are labeled for use with herbicides may be used with Roundup.
Do not reduce rates of Roundup when adding surfactant. Use 0.5 percent surfactant concentrate (2
quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) when using surfactants which contain at least 50 percent active
ingredient or a 1 percent surfactant concentration (4 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) for those
surfactants containing less than 50 percent active ingredient. Read and carefully observe surfactant
cautionary statements and other information appearing on the surfactant label.
GRAMOXONE EXTRA
When used as directed, Gramoxone Extra in these tank mixtures controls many emerged annual weeds
and suppresses many emerged perennial weeds.
Broadcast Treatment-Apply 1.5 to 3 pints of Gramoxone Extra per acre in these tank mixtures
immediately before, during or after planting, but BEFORE CROP EMERGENCE. Use 1.5 to 2 pints when
weeds are 1 to 3 inches tall, 2 to 2.5 pints when weeds are 3 to 6 inches tall and 2.5 to 3 pints when
weeds are 6 inches tall. These mixtures may not control weeds taller than 6 inches. As density of stubble,
crop residue or weeds increases, spray gallonage should be increased within the recommended range for
complete coverage. Add a non ionic spreader surfactant (approved for use on crops) containing at least
75 percent surfactant active agent at 8 fluid ounces per 100 gallons of diluted spray. REFER TO THE
GRAMOXONE EXTRA LABEL FOR PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS.

TANK MIXTURES
AT-PLANTING APPLICATIONS
When applied as directed under the conditions described, these tank mixtures control many emerged
annual weeds, suppress many emerged perennial weeds and give pre emergence control of many annual
grasses and weeds when soybeans will be planted directly into a cover crop, stale seedbed or in previous
crop residues such as wheat stubble.
These tank mixtures will not control regrowth from perennial weeds.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
For mixing instructions, see the "MIXING, SPRAYING AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS" section of this
label.
Partner and the following tank mixtures can be tank-mixed with Roundup and Gramoxone Extra.
Apply the tank mixture with Roundup in 10 to 20 gallons of water or 10 to 60 gallons of nitrogen solution
per acre, or the tank mixture with Gramoxone Extra in 20 to 60 gallons of water or clear liquid fertilizer per
acre immediately before, during or after planting, but BEFORE CROP EMERGENCE. As density of
stubble, crop residue or weeds increases, spray gallonage and rate should be increased within the
recommended ranges to insure complete coverage. In the absence of emerged vegetation, delete the
Roundup or Gramoxone Extra portion of these tank mixtures.
NOTE: The term "Roundup" Includes those Roundup products registered for the applications
recommended within this label. The application rates given are based on products containing 3
pounds acid equivalent of glyphosate in one gallon of product. Formulations containing other
concentrations of glyphosate must have their rates adjusted to be equivalent with the 3 pound
acid equivalent formulations.

CONTROL OR SUPPRESSION
OF EMERGED WEEDS
ROUNDUP
53
9;113>
Annual Weeds-Apply 1 to 1.5 pints of Roundup per acre in these tank mixtures when weeds are less
than 6 inches tall. Use 2 pints of Roundup per acre for control of fall panicum, barnyardgrass, crabgrass
and shattercane up to 2 inches tall; Pennsylvania smartweed up to 6 inches tall; other annual weeds 6 to
12 inches tall. For emerged annual weeds controlled, see the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the
label for Roundup.
Perennial Weeds-At normal application dates in minimum tillage systems, perennial weeds may not be
at the proper stage of growth for control. See the "GENERAL INFORMATION" section of the label fpr
Roundup for the proper stage of growth for perennial weeds. Use of 2 to 4 quarts of Roundup per acre in
the above mixtures under these conditions provides top kill and reduces competition from many emerged
perennial grasses and broad leaf weeds.
For emerged perennial weeds controlled see the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of the label for
Roundup. To obtain control of perennial weeds, follow recommendations on the label for Roundup for
stage of growth and rate of application.
USE OF THIS MIXTURE FOR BERMUDAGRASS OR JOHNSONGRASS CONTROL IS NOT
RECOMMENDED.
NOTE: When using these tank mixtures, do not exceed 4 quarts of Roundup herbicide per acre.
Ammonium Sulfate-The addition of ammonium sulfate in the spray solu1ion may increase the
performance of Roundup tank mixtures on emerged annual weeds under adverse growing conditions.
When using ammonium sulfate, add 2 percent dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 17 pounds per 100
gallons of water. Ammonium sulfate should be added to the water in the spray tank and completely
dissolved prior to adding the herbicide or surfactant. Do not mix ammonium sulfate in fluid fertilizer
solutions.
If ammonium sulfate is added directly to the spray tank, add slowly with agitation. Adding too quickly may
clog outlet lines. Nozzle tip plugging may result from the use of low-quality ammonium sulfate. To
determine quality, perform a jar test by adding 1/3 cup of ammonium sulfate to 1 gallon of water and
agitate for one minute. If undissolved sediment is observed, predissolve the ammonium sulfate in water
and filter prior to adding to the spray tank.
Following use of ammonium sulfate, thoroughly rinse the spray system with clean water to reduce
corrosion.
Surlactants-Nonionic surfactants which are labeled for use with herbicides may be used with Roundup.
Do not reduce rates of Roundup when adding surfactant. Use 0.5 percent surfactant concentration (2
quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) when using surfactants which contain at least 50 percent active
ingredient or a 1 percent surfactant concentration (4 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) for those
surfactants containing less than 50 percent active ingredient. Read and carefully observe surfactant
cautionary statements and other information appearing on the surfactant label.
GRAMOXONE EXTRA
When used as directed, Gramoxone Extra tank-mixed with labeled Partner tank mixtures controls many
emerged annual weeds and suppresses many emerged perennial weeds.
Broadcast Treatment - Apply 1.5 to 2.5 pints of Gramoxone Extra in this tank mixture immediately
before, during or after planting but BEFORE CROP EMERGENCE. Use the 2.5 pint rate if any weeds are
4 to 6 inches tall. This mixture may not control weeds taller than 6 inches. As density of stubble, crop
residue or weeds increases, spray volume should be increased within the recommended range for
complete coverage. Add a non ionic spreader surfactant (approved for use in growing crops) containing at
least 75 percent surface active agent at 8 ounces per 100 gallons of diluted spray. REFER TO THE
GRAMOXONE EXTRA LABEL FOR PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS.
