Always predetermine the compatibility of Micro-Tech or labeled tank 
IIIixtures of Micro-Tech 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: Micro-Tech and all tank mixtures listed in the "DIRECTION FOR 
USE" section may be applied in sprayable fluid fertilizers. 
Mix Micro-Tech or labeled tanlt mixture of Micro-Tech with the 
appropriate carrier as follows: 
1. Place a 20 to 35 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 to improve mixing or to 
prevent the formation of undesirable and unsprayable gels or 
precipitates, while agitating add it to the carrier already in 
the tank. 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. 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. 
5. If a flowable formulation is used, add slowly through screen 
into the tank. Mixing and compatibility may be improved when 
flowable is premixed one part flowable with one part water and 
added to the tank in diluted form. 
6. Add Micro-Tech slowly through the screen into the tank. Mixing 
and compatibility may be improved when this product is 
prediluted with two parts of water and added to the tank in 
diluted form. 
7. 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 spray mixture is allowed to settle at any 
time thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before 
spraying is resumed. 
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 prcper 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 SPRAYABLB FLUID 
FERTILIZER COMPATIBILITY TBST 
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 vaiue. 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 
(Micro-Tech C 1992-1) 7 (4/27/92 )

I ' I, 7 
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 
(mI.) 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 concentration, 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 descibed 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 
after standing; wettable powders 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 th·, 
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.

Aerial-pixed wing; helicopter-Apply the recommended rates of this 
product or approved tank mixtures in 3 to 10 gallons of water per 
acre. AVOID DRIFT-DO NO~ APPLY DURING INVERSION CONDITIONS, WHEN 
WINDS ARE GUSTY, OR UND~R ANY OTHER CONDITION WHICH WILL ALLOW 
DRIFT. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift; therefore, do not 
use nozzles or nozzle configurations which dispense spray or fine 
spray droplets. Do not angle nozzles forward into the airstream and 
do not increase spray volume by increasing nozzle pressure. Ensure 
uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped 
application, use mechanical marking systems only, HUMAN FLAGGERS 
PROHIBITED! 
Application with Dry Bulk Pertilizer-The herbicide-dry fertilizer 
impregnation process (In-Plant and On-Board systems) must be 
completed only by commercial fertilizer or chemical dealerships 
properly equipped for this procedure. Contact Monsanto Company for 
additional information regarding recommended equipment and methods 
for herbicide-fertilizer impregnation ap9lications. 
Dry bulk fertilizer may be impregnated with Micro-Tech or the tank 
mixtures of Micro-Tech plus atrazine or Micro-Tech plus Bladex on 
corn. Micro-Tech and these tank mixtures must be applied with 200 
to 450 pounds of dry bulk fertilizer per acre and shallowly 
incorporated within 7 days prior to planting. On medium and fine­
textured soils in areas where soil incorporation is not planned, 
Le., reduced tillage situations or in some conventional till 
situations, applications can be made up to 30 days before planting 
to allow moisture to move the herbicide-fertilizer mixture intc the 
soil. On coarse textured soils, applications can be made up to 14 
days prior to planting. The herbicide must be applied as

With the In-Plant system, mix and blend the dry fertilizer and 
herbicide mixture in a closed rotary-drum type mixture allowing 
sufficient time to ensure uniform coverage. Use at least one ton of 
dry fertilizer per mixing operation. Inject the herbicide into the 
drum over a minimum of a 2-minute period and allow at least 2 
additional minutes mixing time to ensure uniformity. The nozzle 
used to spray the herbicide treatment must be placed inside the 
mixer to provide uniform spray coverage of the tumbling fertilizer. 
If the fer~ilizer used has inadequate adsorptive capacity, a highly 
adsorptive material such as Agsorb™,. MP-79™, Microcel™ E, 
cropstar· or Lasso. II granules can be added to provide a free­
flowing mixture. contact Monsanto Company for specific guidelines 
with regard to the sequence of addition for the various components 
and the amount of drying agent. to add to provide a free-flowing 
mixture. 
When using Cropstar or Lasso II granules as an adsorptive material, 
refer to the table below for the correct rates. The CropStar rate 
is the same as the Lasso II rate. If the total amount of Micro-Tech 
liquid herbicide in the tank mixture to be impregnated exceeds 3.25 
quarts per acre, additional nonherbicidal adsorptive material may 
be necessary to ensure a free-flowing mixture.

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 =ertain 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 direction 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 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. Incorporation is not) 
recommended on coarse soils in the southeastern states. 
i-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 l-pass incorporation. 
contact Monsanto Company for additional information regard~.ng 
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. 
Pre emergence Surface Application-This product and all labeled tank 
mixtures may be applied to the soil surface after 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 after last preplant tillage, rotary hoe 
or shallowly cultivate immediately to improve performance. 
Precipitation or overhead sprinkler irrigation is required after 
application to move ~he 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 inches is 
normally adequate. Performance is improved when moisture is 
received witbin 7 days after application and prior to weed 
emergence. High intensity or excessive rainfall or excessive 
irrigation after application may reduce control. 
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 grass~s emerge. If 
CUltivation is necessary because of soil crusting or compaction, 
set equipment shallow and minimize lateral soil movement to avoid 
dilution or displacement of the herbicide treatment. If a band 
application is used and weeds have emerged in the treated band, set 
cultivator to throw soil into the row, covering the band.

1.1 pounds of the 90t dry flowable formulations of these 
products. 
Use the hi~her rates of atrazine and Princep in the recommended 
ranges on soils with greater than 3\ organic matter. 
In the areas of heavy grass infestation, use the higher rate of 
Micro-Tech in the recommended ranges when fall panicum, 
crabgrass, or soils with greater than 3t organic matter will be 
present.

This product, when applied in a single application or split 
application will provide preemergence control or reduced 
competition of the annual grasses and broadleaf weeds listed in 
the "WEEDS CONTROLLED" section of this label. If weeds are 
emerged at time of application, apply a labeled contact herbicide 
with this product. Observe the directions for use, precautions, 
and restrictions on the label of the contact herbicide. 
RECOMMENDED RATE AND TIMING OP APPLICATION 
Single application-Application of this product should be made 
less than 30 days before planting but prior to weed emergence. 
This application should be restricted to areas north of 
Interstate 70 when west of the Mississippi River and north of 
_ .• cerstate 64 when east of the Mississippi River where cool 
spring weather mini~izes or slows biodegration of herbicides. 
NOTE: Application on coarse soils should D2t be made more than 
two weeks prior to planting. 
Split application-Apply 60 percent of the recommended rate as a 
split application prior to weed emergence and no more than 45 
days prior to planting and the remaining 40 percent at or 
immediately following planting. 
See the following table for recommended broadcast rates per acre 
for single and split applications.

In order to provide broad spectrum weed control, both single and 
split applications of this product must be followed with a 
planned postemergence application of a labeled broadcast and/or 
grass herbicide. Observe the directions for use, precautions and 
restrictions on the label of the postemergence herbicide before 
use of these products. 
If emerged weeds exist at planting, the application of a contact 
herbicide or tillage is recommended when possible to eliminate 
existing weeds. 
MICRO-TECBIlP plus ATRAZIHE 
(TAHlt M:IXTtJRE) 
This tank mixture, when applied in a single application (alone or 
in a 3-way combination with Bladex or Princep), split application 
or as a sequential application to Bladex or Princep in early 
preplant programs, will provide preemergence control or reduced 
competition of listed annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. 
If emerged weeds are present at the time of treatment Gramoxone 
Extra or 2,4-0 should be added to the r~oduct according to the 
directions for use on their respective product labels. If 
unsatisfactory weed control occurs (due to excessively dry or 
excessively wet conditions) following the earlier application, a 
postemergence application of an appropriate labeled grass and/or 
broadleaf weed herbicide may be used. If a postemergence 
treatment includes the herbicide used early preplant, do not 
exceed the labelled rate for corn on a given soil texture. 
Observe all precautions and limitations on the labels for Micro­
Tech, atrazine, Blade::, Princep, Gramoxone Extra, 2,4,-0 and 
other post-emergence herbicides before use of these products. 
RECOMMENDBD RATB AND T:IM:IHG OF APPL:ICAT:IOH

Use rates listed in this label when using the 4L formulation of 
atrazine, Bladex or Princep. Use equivalent rates of the SOW or 
90t dry flowable formulations of atrazine, Bladex or Princep. One 
quart of the 4L formulation of atrazine, Bladex or Princep equals 
1.25 pounds of the SOW and 1.1 pounds of the 90t dry flowable 
formulations of atrazine, Bladex or Princep. 
DO NOT use Bladex on coarse textured soils or soils of less than 
1 percent organic matter. 
Plant only corn, peanuts, sorghum (milo) or soybeans the year 
following the use of this program. There is a possibility of crop 
injury due to r.arryover of atrazine if soybeans are planted the 
following year. 
NOTE: Soil treated with Princep should not be planted to any crop 
except corn for one year following treatment as crop injury 
may occur. After harvest of the treated crop, plow and 
thoroughly till the soil in the fall or spring to minimize 
possible injury to spring seeded rotational crops.
