TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS of the label must be replaced with the information below. 
NOTE: The information regarding SENSITIVE AREAS as well as charts 1 and 2 must remain 
on the label. 
"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) 
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 a 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 deposition 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." 
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 (vegetative stage), ornamentals, 
sunflowers, tomatoes, beans, and other vegetables, or tobacco. Small amounts of spray 
drift that might not be visible may injure susceptible broadleafplants."

I. GENERAL INFORMATION 
HM·O739™ is a unique broad spectrum pre-plant (burndown), pre-emergence, postharvest( following crop) 
herbicide for controlling a wide annual, biennial, and perennial weeds and grasses in Soybeans. When HM-0739 is 
applied pre-plant or pre-emergence susceptible weeds emerge, growth stops, and the weeds either die or are not 
competitive with the crop. When HM70739 is applied postharvestnt,absorption of the product occurs through the 
foliage and roots. Susceptible weeds cease to be competitive with crop as they die. 
In many cases a light shallow cultivation may aid in the control of certain weeds or improve general weed control 
when adequate moisture is not received after application. In postharvest applications, wait approximately 10 days 
after application before cultivating.

Use of this product in certain portions of California, Oregon, and Washington is subject to the January 22, 2004 
Order of Injunctive Relief in Washington Toxics Coalition et all vs. EPA C01-132C (W.D.WA.). For information, 
please refer to www.epa.gov/espp/wtc/. 
Mode of Action 
HMDO739™ contains three active ingredients uniquely formulated to be used alone or tank mixed with other listed 
products as well as liquid fertilizer solutions. HM·0739™ is readily absorbed by plants through shoot and root 
uptake, trans locates throughout the plant's system, and accumulates in areas of active growth. HM·0739™ 
interferes with the plant's growth hormones (auxins) resulting in death of ma,nybroadleaf weeds and grasses. 
For best results, thoroughly clean sprayer equipment (tank, lines and nozzles) immediately after use by flushing 
system with water and heavy duty detergent or other suitable tank cleaner. 
II. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS 
Apply HM·O739™ at the rates and growth stages listed ih Tables 1 and 2 as follows unless instructed differently. 
HM-0739TftI may be applied using water or sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier. Sprayable fluid fertilizer may be 
used as the carrier in preplant or pre-emergence use for all crops listed on this label. PostharVestnce uses with 
sprayable fluid fertilizer may be made on Soybeans wheat crops only. The most effective application rate and 
timing varies based on the target weed species (refer to Table I). In mixed populations of weeds the correct rate is 
determined by the weed species requiring the highest rate. Delaying application permits weeds to exceed the 
maximum size and will prevent adequate control. For certain specified applications liquid fertilizer or oil may replace 
part or all of the water as diluent. If dry flowable (DF); wettable powder (WP) or flow~ble (F) tank mix products are 
to be used, these should generally be added to the spray tank first Refer to the mixing directions on the labels of 
the tank mix products. .. 
Irrigation: 
In irrigated areas, it may be necessary to irrigate before treatment to ensure active weed growth. 
CHEMIGATION PROHIBITION 
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. 
Spray Coverage: . 
Weeds must be thoroughly covered with spray. Dense leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds and prevent adequate 
spray coverage. 
Sensitive Crop Precautions: 
HM·0739™ may cause injury to desirable trees and plants, particularly beans, cotton, flowers, fruit trees, grapes, 
ornamentals, peas, potatoes, soybeans, sunflowers, tobacco, tomatoes and other broad leaf plants when contacting 
their roots, stems or foliage. These plants are most sensitive to HM·0739™ during their development or growing 
stage. Do not treat areas where either possible downward movement into the soil or surface washing may cause 
contact of HM·0739™ with the roots of desirable trees and shrubs. 
Drift Reduction Information: 
The following information may be helpful in reducing possible spray drift from ground or aerial applications. Avoid 
making applications when spray particle may be carried by air currents to areas where sensitive crops and plants 
are growing. Do not spray near sensitive plants if the wind is gusty or in excess of 5 mph and moving in the 
direction of nearby sensitive crops or if a temperature inversion exists. Always determine the direction and distance 
5

of possible spray drift prior to application. Leave an adequate buffer zone between arE~a to_,be treated and sensitive 
plants. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift out of the target area than fine sprays. Properly maintain and calibrate 
all spray equipment. The use of agriculturally accepted drift retardants are acceptable and advised. Avoid 
applications within the vicinity of susceptible plants when at all possible. Do not apply in greenhouses. 
AERIAL APPLICATION METHODS AND EQUIPMENT 
Water Volume: Use 3-10 gallons of water per acre. Use the higher spray volume when treating dense or tall 
vegetation. 
I 
Application Equipment: Select nozzles designed to produce minimal arpounts of fine spray particles. Make 
applications at the lowest stage height to reduce the exposure of spray droplets to evaporation and wind. The 
applicator must follow the most restrictive use cautions to avoid drift hazards, including those found in this labeling 
as well as applicable state and local regulations and ordinances. 
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR. 
The interaction of many equipment-and-weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The 
applicator is responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions. 
The following drift management requirements'must be followed to avoid off-target movement from aerial 
applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications, public health uses 
or to applications using dry formulations. 
1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed % the length of the wingspan or rotor. 
2. Nozzles must always poiht backward parallel with the air stream and never be pointed downwards more than 45 
degrees. 
Where states have more stringent regulations, they should be observed. 
The applicator should be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the Aerial Drift Reduction 
AdvisorY. 
AERIAL DRifT REDUCTION ADVISORY 
[This section is advisory in nature and does not supersede the mandatory label requirements.] 
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE 
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to 
apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift 
potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental 
conditions (See Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions). 
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE 
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated 
flows produce larger droplets. 
6

CD Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For many nozzle. types lower 
.. pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, u~e higherfl9w rate nozzles instead of 
increasing pressure. 
o Number of nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage. 
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to. the airstream produces larger 
droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice. Significant deflection from horizontal will 
reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. 
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application .. With most nozzle types, 
narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented 
straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift. 
BOOM LENGTH 
For s'ome use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than % of the wingspan or rotor length may 
further reduce drift without reducing swath width. 
APPLICATION HEIGHT 
Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the target plants unless a greater 
. height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of 
droplets to evaporation and wind. 
SWATH ADJUSTMENT 
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and 
downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the 
aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase. with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller 
drops, etc.) 
WIND 
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2-10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and 
equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed. Application should be avoided below 2 mph due to 
variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every 
applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift. 
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY 
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for 
evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry. 
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS 
Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high. Temperature 
inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. 
This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions. 
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with 
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. 
Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified 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. 
SENSITIVE AREAS 
7

Tbe pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, 
bodies of water, known habitanor threatened or endangered species,non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind 
is blowing away from the sensitive areas). '

When applying HM·O739™ herbicide by banding, determine the amount of herbicide and water volume needed 
using the following formula: 
Bandwidth in inches x Broadcast rate = Banding herbicide 
Row width in inches per acre rate per acre 
Bandwidth in inches x Broadcast rate = Banding water 
Row width in inches volume per acre volume per acre 
Ground Application (Broadcast) 
Water volume: Use 10-25 gallons of spray solution per broadcast acre for optimal performance. Use the higher 
spray volume when treating dense or tall vegetation. 
Application Equipment: Select nozzle design to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles. Spray nozzles as 
close to the weeds as is practical for good weed coverage. 
Spot or Small Area Application 
HM·0739™ may be applied to individual clumps or small areas of undesirable vegetation using handgun or similar 
types of application equipment. Apply diluted sprays to allow complete wetting (up to runoff) of foliage and stems. 
For knapsack or other small capacity sprayers, prepare a solution of HM·0739™ in water according to Table 3 
(assuming that the spot treatment rate equates to 40 gallons pre acre on the broadcast basis.) Adding a surfactant 
(0.5% by volume) can help improve control. 
Do not make spot treatments in addition to broadcast or band treatments.

III. ADDITIVES 
To improve burndown of emerged weeds, surfactants and/or lo~ use rates of Iiquid.fer1i1izers (28-0-0; 32-0-0), or 
crop oil concentrate may be used with HM·O739™ herbicide o{HM .. 0739™ tank mixes applied after the weeds have 
emerged. Crop oil concentrate is for non-food/feed crop uses only. Do not apply tank mixes that include 
Ammonium Sulfate or Crop Oil Concentrate to any food/feed trop use listed on this label. For food/feed crop use, 
do not use liquid fertilizers that contain Ammonium Sulfate (AMS) as a source of nitrogen as tolerances in 
commodities derived from the crop may contain residues that exceed established tolerances. 
Oil Concentrate 
A crop oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum or vegetable oil base and must meet all of the following 
criteria: 
• be non-phytotoxic 
• contain only EPA-exempt ingredients 
o provide good mixing quality in the jar test, and 
• be successful in local experience 
The exact composition of suitable products will vary; however, vegetable oil and petroleum oil concentrates should 
contain ,emulSifiers to provide good mixing quality. Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more satisfactory than 
unrefined vegetable oils. For additional information, see Compatibility Test for Mix Components. 
Adjuvants containing crop oil concentrates may be useq for preplant, pre-emergence applications. Do not use crop 
oil concentrate for pre-emergence applications in food/feed crops (Le. grass (hay or silage), pastures, rangeland, 
and wheat.) 
Nitrogen Source 
Sprayable liquid fertilizers: Use %GPA of sprayable liquid fertilizers (28-0-0; 32-0-0) per acre. Do not use brass or 
aluminum nozzles when spraying fertilizers. 
Non-ionic Surfactant 
The standard labe! recommendation is 1-2 pints of an 80% active non-ionic spray surfactant per 100 gallons of 
water. (Rate will vary with the size and condition of weeds to be controlled. Use lowest rate per 100 gallons when 
weeds are small and actively growing. As weeds increase in size and or become hardened off,.the rate of non-ionic 
surfactant will have to be increased to give optimum coverage and control.)

See "VI. Food/Feed Crop Specific Information" section for more information for more details. Read and follow the 
applicable Restrictions and Limitations and Directions for Use on all products involved in tank mixing. The most 
restrictive labeling applies to tank mixes. Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop injury may result 
from mixing HM·O739™ with other pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or miticides), additives, or 
fertilizers. 
Compatibility Test for Mix Components 
Before mixing components, always perform a compatibility jar test. 
For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups (800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes adjust accordingly. 
Only use water from the intended source at the source temperature. 
Add components in the sequence indicated in the Mixing Order using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon for 
each pint of recommended label rate per acre. 
13

( 
Always cap the jar and invert 10 cycles between component additions. 
When the components have all been added to the jar, let the solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solution 
for uniformity and stability. The spray solution should not have free oil on the surface, nor fine particles that 
precipitate to the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. If the spray solution is not compatible, repeat the 
compatibility test with the addition of a suitable compatibility agent. If the solution is still incompatible, do not mix 
the ingredients in the same tank. 
Mixing Order 
If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added. Maintain constant agitation during 
application. 
1. Water Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank half full of clean water. 
2. Agitation. Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing and a.pplication. 
3. Products in PYA bags. Place any product contained in water-soluble bags into the mixing tank. Wait until all 
water-soluble PYA bags have fully dissolved and the prOduct is evenly mixed in the spray tank before 
continuing. 
4. Water-dispersible products (such as dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, and suspo-
emulsoins) 
5. Water-soluble products (such as HM·0739™ ). 
6. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as oil concentrate, when applicable). 
7. Water-soluble additives (such as liquid fertilizers (28-0-0; 32-0-0), when applicable).* 
8. Remaining quantity of water. 
* If sprayable fluid fertilizer is used as the carrier. 
Always perform the Compatibility Test before mixing into the spray tank. Also, when using a sprayable fluid 
fertilizer as the carrier, any product contained in PYA bags must first be completely dissolved in water before the 
contents can be added to the fertilizer mix. 
Tank Mix:tures with Glyphosate herbicides: 
When applied preplant or pre-emegent burndown or postharvest, Glyphosate may be mixed with HM-0739 for 
increased control of weeds common to minimum, conventional or no-till production such as marestail and prickly 
lettuce. Always include a CPDA certified adjuvant in the spray solution. Glyphosate will aid in the bumdown of 
exsiting weeds while the imazaquin component of HM-0739 will help control or suppress non-emereged weeds . 
. All refer to the Glyhosate label for recommended rate of timing of Glyphosate. 
Observe all precautions and limitations on the Glyphosate product label.

CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAMS AND GENERAL FARMSTEAD 
HM·0739™ is recommended for use for Conservation Reserve Programs, general farmstead (non-cropland only), 
weed and brush control, or use in State Recognized Noxious Weed areas (non-cropland areas). 
Refer to Tables 1 and 2 for r(lte selection based on targeted weed or brush species. Some weed species will 
require tank mixes for adequate control. 
Rates above 21/2 pints of HM .. 0739™ per acre are for spot treatments only. 
Retreatments may be made as needed; however, do not exceed a total of ............ pints of HM .. 0739™ per treated 
acre during a growing season. 
Farmstead and Fence-row Treatment Application Instructions 
HM·0739™ may be applied using water or oil and water emulsions in spot application to control undesirable 
vegetation using handgun or similar types of application equipment. In addition to weed species listed in Tables 1 
and 2, these treatments may be used to control or suppress woody plant species listed in Table 7. 
To prepare soil and water emulsions, mix in the or'CIer and proportions indicated below. 
The solution should remain milky colored without an oily layer on top when under agitation. If an oily layer forms, 
increase the amount of emulsifier or change to a more effective emulsifier. 
Do not exceed 40 gallons of spray solution per treated acre per application ............. pints of HM·O739™ in forty 
gallons of spray solution contains '" .. , ....... pounds acid equivalent of dicamba and ............... pounds acid 
equivalent of 2,4-0 and ....... , ...... pounds acid equivalent imazaquin.. Spray plants to wet. Do not allow this spray 
mix to contact desirable vegetation. 
To control brush, briars, and weeds along fence-rows surrounding pasture and ranch lands, and fallow fields, use a 
tank mix of 1.5% HM·0739™, 88.5% water, 10% diesel oil, and sufficient emulsifier (to mix the diesel and

c 
emulsifier),' The diesel oil in this tank mix will damage or kill desirable grasses and should not be used in pastures 
or where damage to desirable species cannot be tolerated. 
1. Water: Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank with the desired quantity of clean water. Maintain 
constant agitation during complete mixing procedure. 
2. Emulsifier: Add 0.5% volume to volume of water. 
3. HM-0739™: add 1.5 gallons per 100 gallons of total intended solution. 
4. Diesel Oil: Add 10 gallons per 100 gallons of total intended solution. 
Maintain constant agitation during application. Under good agitation, the spray solution should be milky white with 
no oil layer on top. If oil layer forms, increase the amount of emulsifier or change 'to a more effective emulsifier. 
FOR SPRAYING FOLIAR APPLICATIONS: 
1. Spray when leaves have reached full size but have not hardened due to drought or maturity. 
2. Spray individual plants to wet with handgun. 
3. For larger stems (up to 3" in diameter) and hardto control species, direct spray stream to base of stems to wet 
the stem at soil surface in addition to wetting the foliag~, 
4. Do not apply under drip line of desirable trees or adjacent to desirable vegetation. 
FOR DORMANT BASAL APPLICATIONS: 
1. Increase diesel oil content to 15% or 15 g~llons of diesel oil per 100 gallons of total solution. 
2. Spray in late winter and early spring before plants break dormancy. 
3. Spray the bottom 24" of the target stem to wet on all sides; 
4. For larger stems (up to 3" in diameter) and hard to kill species direct the spray solution to the base of target 
stems to wet the soil at the ~tem/soil junction in addition to wetting the stem. 
5. Do not apply under drip line of desirable trees or adjacent to desirable veg~tation. 
FOR CUT SURFACE TREATMENTS: 
Apply HM~0739TM in an undiluted state as a cut surface treatment to control unwanted trees and prevent sprouts of 
cut trees. 
• Frill or Girdle Treatments: Make a continuous cut or a series of overlapping cuts using an axe to girdle tree 
trunk. Spray or paint the cut surface with HM·O739™. 
Stump Treatments: Spray or paint freshly cut surface with HM·O739™. The cambium layer (the area adjacent to 
the bark) should be thoroughly wet Treat stumps within 6 hours after cutting.
