Engineering Controls:
Pilots must use an enclosed cockpit that meets the requirements listed in WPS for agricultural pesticides
[40 CFR 170.240 (d)(6)].
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Users should wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.
Users should remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
Users should remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon
as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
This product is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is
present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift or runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in
water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate.
This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this
chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater
contamination. Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater.
Do not contaminate irrigation ditches or water used for domestic purposes. Use care to avoid spray contact or drift to 2,4-D
susceptible plants such as cotton, tomatoes, flowers, grapes, fruit trees and ornamentals. Do not permit spray mist
containing Weed Rhap LV-6D to drift on to them, since even very small quantities of the spray, which may not be visible,
3
can cause severe injury during both growing and dormant periods. Do not spray when the wind is blowing towards
susceptible crops or ornamental plants. Use coarse sprays to minimize drift. With ground equipment spray drift can be
lessened by keeping the spray boom as low as possible; by applying 20 gallons or more of spray per acre; by using no more
than 20 pounds spraying pressure with flat fan or flooding flat fan nozzle tips; and by spraying when wind velocity is low. Do
not apply with hollow cone-type insecticide or other nozzles that produce a fine droplet spray. With aircraft application,
apply 1 to 5 gallons of spray per acre; by using nozzles which produce a coarse spray pattern. Although this product is
much less volatile than butyl or isopropyl esters, at high temperatures and low humidity vapors from this product may injure
susceptible plants growing near- by. Do not use in a greenhouse. Flush sprayer out on suitable non-crop area after use.
Do not use the same spray equipment for applying other materials to 2,4·D susceptible crops as injury may result.
GROUNDWATER CONTAMINATION
Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D have been associated with
mixing/loading and disposal sites. Exercise caution when handling 2,4-D pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of
groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills.
Placement of the mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater
contamination.
CHEMIGATION PROHIBITION
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
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.
Use of this product in certain portions of California, Oregon, and Washington is subject to the January 22, 2004 Order for
Injunctive relief in Washington Toxics Coalition, et. al., v. EP, C01-0132C, (W.D. WA). For further information, please refer

This product can reach groundwater as a result of mixing and loading. To minimize groundwater contamination from spills
during mixing, loading, and cleaning of equipment, take the following steps:
Mixing and Loading: The mixing and loading of spray mixtures into the spray equipment must be carried out on an
impervious pad (i.e., concrete slab, plastic sheeting) large enough to catch any spilled material. If spills occur, contain the
spill by using an absorbent material (e.g., sand, earth, or synthetic absorbent). Dispose of the contaminated absorbent
material by placing in a plastic bag and following disposal instructions on this label.
Triple rinse empty containers as instructed above and add the rinsate to the mixing tank.
Cleaning of Equipment: When cleaning equipment, do not pour the washwater on the ground; spray or drain away from
wells and other water sources.
RESISTANCE-MANAGEMENT STATEMENTS
For resistance management, Weed Rhap LV-6D is a Group 4 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants
naturally resistant to Weed Rhap LV-6D and other Group 4 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed
population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate resistance management strategies should
be followed.
To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:
x Rotate the use of (name of product) or other Group (mode of action group number) herbicides within a growing
season sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
x Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use is permitted; where information on resistance in
target weed species is available, use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that will control the target weed(s)
equally as well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local extension service or certified crop advisor if
you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently less prone to resistance.
6
x Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herbicide use that includes scouting and uses historical
information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage (or other mechanical control
methods), cultural ( e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application method and timing to favor the
crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices.
x Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance development. Indicators
of possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at
the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a spreading patch of non-controlled plants
of a particular weed species; (3) surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. If resistance
is suspected, prevent weed seed production in the affected area by an alternative herbicide from a different group
or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage. Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds to other fields by
cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.
x If a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment with this product, discontinue use of this product,
and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available.
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance-management
and/or integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes.
x For further information or to report suspected resistance, contact a Helena Agri-Enterprises Representative at 901-
761-0050 or at www.helenaagri.com.
Fields should be scouted prior to application to identify the weed species present and their growth stage to determine if the
intended application will be effective.
Fields should be scouted after application to verify that the treatment was effective.
Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
x Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is
achieved on adjacent weeds;
x A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
x Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed species to your Helena Agri-Enterprises
representative or call 901-761-0050. If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a different
mechanism of action and/or use non-chemical means to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further
seed production.
Plant into weed-free fields and keep fields as weed-free as possible.
To the extent possible, use a diversified approach toward weed management. Whenever possible incorporate multiple
weed-control practices such as mechanical cultivation, biological management practices, and crop rotation.
Fields with difficult to control weeds should be rotated to crops that allow the use of herbicides with alternative mechanisms
of action or different management practices.
7
To the extent possible do not allow weed escapes to produce seeds, roots or tubers. Manage weed seeds at harvest and
post-harvest to prevent a buildup of the weed seedbank.
Prevent field-to-field and within-field movement of weed seed or vegetative propagules. Thoroughly clean plant residues
from equipment before leaving fields.
Prevent an influx of weeds into the field by managing field borders.
Identify weeds present in the field through scouting and field history and understand their biology. The weed-control
program should consider all of the weeds present.
Difficult to control weeds may require sequential applications of herbicides with differing mechanisms of action.
Apply this herbicide at the correct timing and rate needed to control the most difficult weed in the field.
Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with a mechanism of action that differs from this product as a foundation in a
weed-control program. Do not use more than two applications of this or any other herbicide with the same mechanism of
action within a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with another mechanism of action with an overlapping
spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.
If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide with a different MOA or use non-chemical methods to
remove escapes.
Contact your local sales representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this
MOA have been found in your region. If resistant biotypes of target weeds have been reported, use the application rates of
this product specified for your local conditions. Tank mix products so that there are multiple effective mechanisms of actions
for each target weed.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity) and
method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) can influence pesticide drift. The applicator must evaluate
all factors and make appropriate adjustments when applying this product.
Droplet Size
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D as the sole active ingredient, or when applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed
with active ingredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a Coarse or coarser spray (ASAE standard
572) or volume mean diameter of 385 microns or greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with other active ingredients that require a Medium or more fine spray,
apply only as a Medium or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 300 microns or greater for
spinning atomizer nozzles.
Wind Speed
Do not apply at wind speeds greater than 15 mph. Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target disposition
and there are not sensitive areas (including, but not limited to, residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for
nontarget species, nontarget crops) within 250 feet downwind. If applying a Medium spray, leave one swath unsprayed at
the downwind edge of the treated field.
8
Temperature Inversions
If applying at wind speeds less than 3 mph, the applicator must determine if: a) conditions of temperature inversion exist, or
b) stable atmospheric conditions exist at or below nozzle height. Do not make applications into areas of temperature
inversions or stable atmospheric conditions.
Susceptible Plants
Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or
crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are not limited to, cotton, okra,
flowers, grapes (in growing stage), fruit trees (foliage), soybeans (vegetable stage), ornamentals, sunflowers, tomatoes,
beans, and other vegetables, or tobacco. Small amounts of spray drift that might not be visible may injure susceptible
broadleaf plants.
Other State and Local Requirements
Applicators must follow all state and local pesticide drift requirements regarding application of 2,4-D herbicides. Where
states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
Equipment
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers or
surrogates.
The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade diameter.
Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height greater than 10
feet above the crop canopy unless a greater heights is required for aircraft safety. This requirements does not apply to
forestry or rights-of-way applications.
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for
this by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.
2,4-D esters may volatilize during conditions of low humidity and high temperatures. Do not apply during conditions of low
humidity and high temperatures.
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.
Aerial Application
The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade diameter.
Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height greater than
10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. This requirement does not apply to
forestry or rights-of-way applications.
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate
for this by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
Ground Boom Application
Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.
2,4-D esters may volatilize during conditions of low humidity and high temperatures. Do not apply during conditions of low
humidity and high temperatures.

Mixing Directions
1. Fill the spray tank about half full with water, then add the required amount of Weed Rhap LV-4 with agitation, and
finally the rest of the water. Note: Weed Rhap LV-4 in water forms an emulsion that tends to separat e unless the
mixture is kept agitated.
2. If oil is added, first mix the Weed Rhap LV-4 and the oil an d then add this mixture to the water. However, with
adequate agitation, the oil can be added after Weed Rhap LV-4 is mixed with water.
3. If straight oil is used, a solution is formed and separation does not occur. Do not allow any water to get into the oil-
herbicide mixture to avoid formation of an invert emulsion.
Note: Adding oil, wetting agent, or other surfactant to the spray mixture may increase effectiveness on weeds, but also
may reduce selectivity in crops resulting in crop damage.
FOR ALL TANK MIXTURES: It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are
registered for the intended use. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of
each product in the tank mixture.
Tank Mixing Precautions:
x Read carefully and follow all applicable use directions, precautions, and limitations on the respective product labels.
x Do not exceed specified application rates. Do not tank mix with another pesticide product that contains the same active
ingredient as this product unless the label of either tank mix partner specifies the maximum dosages that may be used.
Tank Mix Compatibility Testing: A jar test is recommended prior to tank mixing to ensure compatibility of this product
and other pesticides. Use a clear glass quart jar with lid and mix the tank mix ingredients in their relative proportions.
Invert the jar containing the mixture several times and observe the mixture for approximately 1/2 hour. If the mixture balls-
up, forms flakes, sludges, jels, oily films or layers, or other precipitates, it is not compatible and the tank mix combination
should not be used.
Mixing with Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizer
This product may be combined with liquid nitrogen fertilizer suitable for foliar application to accomplish broadleaf weed
control and fertilization of corn, small grains or pastures in a single operation. Use Weed Rhap LV-4 in accordance with
directions for these crops provided in this label. Use liquid fertilizer at rates specified by the supplier or Extension Service
Specialist. Test for mixing compatibility by mixing spray ingredients in correct proportions in a clear glass jar before
mixing in spray tank. A compatibility aid such as Unite or Compex may be needed in some situations. Compatibility is
best with liquid fertilizer solutions containing only nitrogen. Mixing with N-P-K solutions may not be satisfactory, even with
the addition of a compatibility aid. Pre-mixing Weed Rhap LV-4 with 1 to 4 parts water may help in situations when mixing
difficulty occurs.
Fill the tank about half full with the liquid fertilizer, then add the required amount of Weed Rhap LV-4 with agitation.
Maintain agitation and complete filling the tank with liquid fertilizer. Apply immediately and continue agitation in spray tank
during application. Do not store the spray mixture. Application during very cold weather (near freezing) is not
advisable.
Sprayer Equipment Clean-Out
To avoid injury to desirable plants, thoroughly clean equipment used to apply this product before re-use or applying other
chemicals.
1. Rinse and flush application equipment thoroughly after use a t least three times with water. Dispose of all rinse water
by application to treatment area or apply to non-cropland area away from water supplies.
2. During the second rinse, add 1 quart of household ammonia fo r every 25 gallons of water. Circulate the solution
through the entire system so that all internal surfaces are contacted (15 to 20 minutes). Let the solution stand for
several hours, preferably overnight.
3. Flush the solution out of the spray tank through the boom.
4. Rinse the system twice with clean water, recirculating and d raining each time.

INFORMATION
Performance of this product may be affected by local conditions, crop varieties, and application method. User should consult
local extension service, agricultural experiment station, or university weed specialists, and state regulatory agencies for
recommendations in your area.
Best results are obtained when product is applied to young succulent weeds that are actively growing. For perennial weeds
and conditions such as the very dry area of the western states, where control is difficult, the higher labeled rates should be
used.
When product is used for weed control in crops, the growth stage of the crop must be considered.
Some plants and weeds, especially woody varieties, are difficult to control and may require repeat applications. Application
rates should be 2 to 10 gallons of total spray by air or 5 to 25 gallons by ground equipment unless otherwise directed. In
either case, use the same amount of 2,4-D labeled per acre. For crop uses, do not mix with oil, surfactants, or other
adjuvants unless specifically on label. To do so may reduce herbicide's selectivity and could result in crop damage.
Aerial application should be used only when there is no danger of drift to susceptible crops. Many states have regulations
concerning aerial application of 2,4-D formulations. Consult local regulatory authorities before making applications. Although
this product is a low volatile formulation, at temperatures above 95oF vapors may damage susceptible crops growing
nearby.
Because coarse sprays are less likely to drift than fine, do not use equipment (such as hollow cone small orifice nozzles) or
conditions (such as high pressure) that produce such sprays.
Product should not be allowed to come into contact with desirable, susceptible plants such as beans, cotton, fruit trees,
grapes, legumes, ornamentals, peas, tomatoes, and other vegetables. Product should not be used in greenhouses.
Excessive amounts of this product in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination and all plant growth.
If stored below freezing, it may be necessary to warm product to 40oF and agitate before using. This does not affect the
efficiency of the product.
Spray equipment used to apply 2,4-D should not be used for any other purpose until thoroughly cleaned with a suitable
chemical cleaner.
Spray Preparation: Add the labeled amount of product to approximately one-half the volume of water to be used for
spraying. Agitate well, then add the remainder of the water. Continue agitation during application until spray tank is empty.
Use in Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizer: Product may be combined with liquid nitrogen fertilizer suitable for foliage application on
corn, grass, pastures, or small grains in one operation. Use product according to directions on this label for those crops.
Use liquid fertilizer at rates recommended by supplier or extension service specialist. Mix the product and fertilizer according
to the following instructions:
Fill the spray tank approximately 1/2 full with the liquid fertilizer. Add the product while agitating the tank. Add the remainder
of the liquid fertilizer while continuing to agitate. Apply immediately maintaining agitation during application until tank is
empty. DO NOT APPLY DURING COLD (NEAR FREEZING) WEATHER. Spray mixture must be used immediately and
may not be stored.

Do not apply WEED RHAP LV 6D
to grain in the seedling stage.
Spray when weeds are small after
grain begins tillering but before
boot stage (usually 4 to 8 inches
tall). Do not apply before the tiller
stage nor from early boot through
milk stage. To control large weeds
that will interfere with harvest or to
suppress perennial weeds,
preharvest treatment can be
applied when the grain is in the
dough stage. Best results will be
obtained when soil moisture is
adequate for plant growth and
weeds are growing well.
For Control of Wild Garlic
and Wild Onion in Wheat
and Barley
2/3 to 1 1/3 pints Since these rates may injure the
crop, do not use unless possible
crop damage is acceptable. For
the higher labeled rates on spring
wheat and barley, consult your
local State Agricultural
Experiment Station or
Extension Service weed specialist
for recommendations or
suggestions to fit local conditions.
For Control of Wild Garlic in
Stubble Grain
1 1/3 quarts Following the harvest of small
grains, wild garlic often produces
new fall growth. Apply in 20 to 40
gallons of water per acre. This is a
useful practice as one part of wild
garlic control program. Do not
plant any crop for three months
after treatment. Do not forage for
14 days following applications.
Additional Use Instructions:
x The higher rates increase the risk of grain injury and should be used only where the weed control problem justifies
the grain damage risk.
x Apply WEED RHAP LV-6D in sufficient water for adequate coverage.

less tolerant to 2,4-D than wheat or barley and more likely to be
injured.
Fall Planted Oats 1/3 to 5/6 pints Apply after full tillering but before early boot stage. Some difficult
weeds may require higher labeled rates of 1/2 to 5/6 pints per acre for
maximum control, but injury may result. Do not spray during or
immediately following cold weather.
Note: Oats are less tolerant to 2,4-D than wheat or barley and more
likely to be injured.

LV-6D PER ACRE
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Preplant or Preemergence 2/3 to 1 1/3 pints Apply product from 3 to 5 days after planting but before corn emerges.
Do not use on very light, sandy soils. Use the higher rates on heavy
soils. Plant corn as deep as practical.
Postemergence 1/3 pints
In dry conditions
(as in Western States*)
Use 1/3 to 1/2 pint
Best results are usually obtained when weeds are small and corn is 4
to 18 inches tall. When corn is over 8 inches tall, use drop nozzles. Do
not apply from tasseling to dough stage. If corn is growing rapidly and
temperature and soil moisture content is high, use 1/3 pint per acre
rate to reduce possibility of crop damage. Delay cultivation for 8 to 10
days to prevent stalk breakage due to temporary brittleness caused by
2,4-D. Application rates of up to 2/3 pint per acre may be used to
control some hard to control weeds. However, the possibility of injury
to the corn is increased.
If corn is over 8 inches tall, use drop nozzles to keep spray off corn
foliage as much as possible. Do not use with oil, atrazine, or other
adjuvants. Since the tolerance to 2,4-D of individual hybrids varies,
consult your local Extension Service, Agricultural Experiment Station,
or University Weed Specialist for information.
Preharvest 2/3 to 1 1/3 pints After the hard dough or denting stage, apply 2/3 to 1-1/3 pints per
acre by air or ground equipment to suppress perennial weeds,
decrease weed seed production, and control tall weeds such as
bindweed, cocklebur, dogbane, jimsonweed, ragweed, sunflower,
velvetleaf, and vines that interfere with harvesting.
Postharvest 1 1/3 quarts Following the harvest of corn, wild garlic often produces new fall
growth. This should be sprayed with 1-1/3 quarts of product per acre.
This is a useful practice as one part of a wild garlic control program.
Do not plant any crop for three months after treatment.

1/2 to 2/3 pint
For use in crop residue management systems: For best weed control,
apply to postemergent weeds when small, actively growing, and free
of stress caused by extremes in climatic conditions, diseases, or
insect damage. The response of individual weed species is variable.
Consult your local county agent or state Agricultural Extension Service
or crop consultant for advice. Use the higher labeled rate on larger
weeds when perennials are present.
Apply in 2 or more gallons of water per acre in aerial equipment and
10 or more gallons of water per acre in ground equipment.
After applying, plant soybean seed as deep as practical or at least 1-
1/2 to 2 inches deep. Adjust the planter press wheel, if necessary, to
ensure that planted seed is completely covered.
If desired, this product may be applied preplant to soybeans in tank
mixtures with other herbicides such as Poast®, Poast® Plus,
Roundup®, Roundup® D-Pak, Honcho®, Gramoxone® Extra, Prowl®,
Pursuit® Plus, Scepter® 70DG, Squadron®, and others that are
registered for preplant soybean use.
It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products in the
listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Users must follow
the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of
each product in the tank mixture.
Compatible crop oil concentrates, nonionic surfactants, and fluid
fertilizers approved for use on growing crops may increase the
herbicidal effectiveness of 2,4-D on certain weeds and may be added
to the spray tank. Read and follow all directions and precautions on
this label and on all labels of adjuvants or fertilizers mixed with this
product.
NOTE: Unacceptable injury to soybeans planted in treated fields may
occur. Whether or not soybean injury occurs and the extent of the
injury will depend on weather (temperature and rainfall) from herbicide
application until soybean emergence and agronomic factors such as
the amount of weed vegetation and previous crop residue present.
Injury is more likely under cool, rainy conditions and where there is
less weed vegetation and crop residue present.

LV-6D PER ACRE
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Broadleaf weeds 2/3 to 2 pints Apply in 40 to 180 gallons or enough water to give good coverage to
one acre on established stands of perennial grasses, depending on
type of weeds and stage of growth. Usually 2 2/3 pints per acre
provides good weed control under average conditions. On turf, apply
a maximum of 2 pints of this product per acre per application per
site. Treat when weeds are young and actively growing. Do not apply
to newly seeded grasses until well established. Use higher labeled
rate for hard-to-kill weeds. Use higher labeled rate when using higher
volume of water per acre. Do not exceed specified application
dosages for any area. Deep-rooted perennial weeds may require
repeated treatments in the same season or in subsequent years.
Spray when air temperature is between 50° and 85°F. Avoid
applying during excessively dry or hot periods unless irrigation
(watering) is used before treatment. Do not apply if rainfall is
expected within 48 hours, nor should lawns be irrigated for 48 hours
following application. For optimum results, turf should not be mowed
for 1 to 2 days before and after application. Reseed no sooner than 3
to 4 weeks after application of this product. Adding oil, wetting agent,
or other surfactant to the spray may be used to increase
effectiveness on weeds, but doing so may reduce selectivity to turf
resulting in turf damage. Maximum kill of weeds will be obtained by
applying in spring and early fall when weeds are actively growing. Do
not use on golf greens nor on dichondra or other broadleaf
herbaceous ground covers. Do not use on creeping grasses such as
bent grass and St. Augustine except for spot spraying. Newly seeded
turf should not be treated until after the second mowing and the
lower dosage rate should be used.
Use sufficient spray volume for thorough and uniform coverage.

FOREST CONIFER RELEASE
To control alder, susceptible broadleaf weeds and susceptible woody plants in conifer plantations apply 0.5 to 2 quarts
product per acre in a minimum of 5 gallons spray solution per acre (registered oil carrier or adjuvant may be used as a
carrier when trees are completely dormant if seedlings are at least 1 growing season old). For best results, apply in the
spring before budbreak or after budset in the summer to help reduce risk of conifer injury.
Certain conifer species are less tolerant to 2,4-D and injury will occur with application. Consult your local university, Helena
Forestry Representative or Agricultural Extension Service specialist for more specific information on rates and timing of
application.
FOREST SITE PREPARATION
To control alder, susceptible broadleaf weeds and susceptible woody plants before planting forest seedlings, apply 1 1/3 to
2 2/3 quarts of product in a minimum of 5 gallons of spray solution (registered oil carrier or adjuvant may be used as a
carrier) per acre. To provide uniform uptake of product, apply when sufficient foliage exists.
SURFACTANTS may be used in site prep applications. Oil or seed oil based surfactants will work best. See surfactant
instructions for rates.
WOODY PLANT CONTROL
WEEDS IN CROP DIRECTIONS FOR USE
To control woody plants susceptible to 2,4-D,
such as alder, buckbrush, elderberry, sumac,
and willow on non-crop areas,
Use 1-1/3 to 2 quarts of product in 100 gallons of water. Wet all parts of the
plants thoroughly, including stem and foliage, to the point of runoff. Higher
volumes of up to 400 gallons per acre are necessary where the brush is
very dense and over 6 to 8 feet high. Applications are more effective when
made on actively growing plants. Do not treat during time of severe drought
or in early fall when leaves lose their green color. Hard to control species
may require retreatment up to the max labeled rate next season. In general
it is better to cut tall wood plants and spray sucker growth when 2 to 4 feet
tall.
Sand Shinnery Oak and Sand Sagebrush On the oak, use 1-1/2 pints of this product in 5 gallons of oil or in 4 gallons
of water plus 1 gallon of oil per acre. Apply by aircraft between May 15 and
June 15. On the sagebrush, use 1-1/2 pints in 3 gallons of oil per acre and
apply by aircraft when foliage is fully expanded and the brush is actively
growing.
Big Sagebrush and Rabbitbrush (for
pastures and rangelands, see note below)
Use 1-1/2 to 4 pints per acre in 2 to 3 gallons of oil or in 3 to 5 gallons of oil-
water emulsion spray. For rabbitbrush, the 4 pints per acre rate is usually
required. Brush should be leafed out and growing actively when treated.
Retreatment up to the max labeled rate may be necessary.
Chamise, Manzanita, buckbrush, coastal
sage, coyotebrush and certain other
chaparral species
Use 1-1/2 to 4 pints per acre in 5 to 10 gallons of water. One gallon of fuel
oil may be included in the spray mixture for added effectiveness. Make
applications by aircraft or ground equipment to obtain uniform spray
coverage. For effective control, the brush must be fully leaved out and
growing actively when sprayed. Retreatment up to the max labeled rate may
be needed. Consult state of local brush control specialists for most effective
rate, volume and timing of spray application.
23
Dormant Application (other than Pine): For
the control of susceptible deciduous brush
species, such as alder, cascara, cherry,
poplar, and serviceberry
Apply up to 2 quarts of product per acre in sufficient diesel, fuel oil or
kerosene for good coverage. Application may be made by ground or air and
should be made before conifer bud break.
Pine Only: Make application while pine buds
are still dormant.
Apply 1-1/3 quarts of product per acre in sufficient water for good coverage
by air or ground equipment. Do not use this application unless some pine
injury is acceptable. Use of diesel, kerosene, or other oil, or addition of
surfactants to spray mix may cause unacceptable pine injury.
