General Information
Basagran" OF herbicide is intend­
ed for selective postemergence
control of certain broadleaf weeds
and sedges. (See Directions For
Use for specific crops and weeds.)
Basagran OF does not control
grasses.
Basagran DF is effective mainly
through contact action; therefore,
weeds must be thoroughly covered
• with spray. Large crop-and-weed
leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds
and prevent adequate spray cover­
age. Labeled crops are tolerant to
Basagran DF; some leaf-speckling
and leaf-bronzing may occur under
certain conditions, but crops gener­
ally outgrow this condition within 10
days. (See Restrictions and
Limitations for each crop.)
TIming of Applications
Apply Basagran DF earty, when
weeds are small and actively grow­
ing and before weeds reach the
maximum size listed in the &::lplica­
tion rate tables for the individual
crops.
Ear1y application produces te,e most
beneficial effect on weed cwtrol
(exceptions: yellow nutsedge and
Canada thistle), allows use of the
lower rate (depending on weBd
) species), and makes thorough
. spray coverage easier to obtain.
Delay in application permits weeds
to exceed the maximum size stated
and will result in inadequate control.
Cultivation
Do not cultivate within 5 days
before or after applying BasagranO
DF in the following northem and
western states: AZ., CA, CO, CT, IA,
ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, MA, ME, MI, MN,
MO, MT, NE, ND, NH, NJ, NV, NY,
OH, OR, PA, RI, SD, UT, VT, WA,
WI, WV, and WY.
Cultivation may put weeds under
stress and reduce control obtained.
Timely cultivation 2 -3 weeks after
applying Basagran DF may assist
weed control.
) Water Volume and Spray
Pressure
Apply recommended rates of
Basagran DF as follows:
Ground Equipment: Use 10-20
gallons of water per broadcast acre
and a minimum of 40 psi (measured
at the boom, not at the pump or in
the line). When crop and weed
foliage is dense, use up to 50 gal­
lons of water and up to 80 psi. Use
standard high-pressure pesticide
hollow cone or flat fan nozz~es
spaced 20 inches apart. DJ not use
nood, whirl chamber or coc.:rolled
droplet application (CDA) r Jzzles.
Air Equipment: Use a m:cmum of
5 gallons of water per acr~ ,except
10 gallons for rice) and a rr aximum
of 40 psi. Use only diaphrqm-type
nozzles· flIoducing cone or 'an
spray patterns.
Aerial Application - Special
Directions
To obtain uniform coverage and to
avoid drift hazards, the following
application equipment and prac­
tices should be used:
Nozzle Height: Maximum of 10
feet above crop.
Nozzle Orientation: Nozzles must
be Oriented to discharge straight
back with the air stream (opposite
the direction of travel of the aircraft)
or at some angle between straight
back and straight down. For opti­
mal coverage when applying
Basagran DF by air in rice, orient
all nozzles straight back.
Nozzles must not be located farther
out :han three-fourths the distance
frorr the center of the aircraft to the
end Jf the wing or rotor.
Do rot apply Basagran DF by air­
crai: when wind velocity exceeds
10 mph (except above 5 mph in
Cali;ornia). Coarse sprays (large
droplets) are less likely to drift.
Do not apply Basagran DF by air if
ornamental or sensitive non-target
crops, such as cotton, sugar beets,
sun,owers or okra are within 200
feet downwind.
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 ordi­
nances.
Special information for irrigated
areas: In irrigated areas, it may be
necessary to irrigate prior to treat­
ment with Basagran DF to ensure
that weeds are growing actively.
Weeds growing under drought con­
ditions usually are not satisfactorily
controlled.
Addition of Oil Concentrate
A nonphytotoxic oil concentrate
(commonly referred to·as oil con­
centrate) should be added to the
spray tank for certain weed prob­
lems as recommended in the
Directions for Use for specific
crops. The oil concentrate must
contain either a petroleum or veg­
etable oil base and must meet all
the following cr~eria:
1) be nonphytotoxic, 2) contain only
EPA-exempt ingredients, 3) provide
good mixing quality in the Jar Test
for Estimating Suitability of
Mixes, and 4) be successful in local
experience.
Tr.e exact composition of suitable
prcducts will vary; however, vag­
eta:Jle and petroleum oil concen­
trates should contain emulsifiers
that provide good mixing quality.
For vegetable oil concentrates, it
has been observed that highly
4
refined vegetable oils are more sat­
isfactory than unrefined vegetable
oils. For additional information, see
Jar Test for Estimating
Suitability of Mixes.
Adding oil concentrate to
Basagran DF on soybeans, beans
and peanuts may cause a slight leaf
bum, but all new growth is normal
and crop vigor is rml reduced. The
potential for leaf burn is increased
when relative humidity and temper­
ature are high.
A few oil concentrates have exhibit­
ed excessive leaf bum. Refer to
your supplier of Basagran DF for
information concerning successful
local experience before purchasing
any oil concentrate.
Do not add oil concentrate to
Basagran DF for use on peas
except as directed for use in the
Pacific Northwest (PNW).
Rate of Oil Concentrate:
Ground application - 1.25% vlv;
2 pints per acre (maximum).
Air application -'1.25% v/v;
1 pint per acre (maximum).
California: Refer to additional infor­
mation under the specific crop
(beans, corn, and sorghum).
Addition of Nitrogen Solution for
Velvetleaf and Other Weeds '
Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN)
solution (commonly referred to as
28%, 30% or 32% nitrogen solu­
tion) or ammonium sulfate (AMS)
may be added to Basagran DF in
place of oil concentrate to improve
velvetleaf control.
Control of cocklebur, wild sun­
flower, Pennsylvania smartweed,
devilscJaw, venice mallow and wild
mustard may also be improved.
Either nitrogen solution should be
added to the tank with Basagran
DF when velvetleaf is the primary
target weed. Basagran DF plus a
nitrogen solution will not provide
adequate control of common rag­
weed and common lambsquarters.
If these weeds or other weeds
requiring oil concentrate are present
in addition to velvetleaf, then oil
concentrate should also be used.
UAN solution is an agricultural
grade fertilizer used by local dealers
for agricultural applications.
Adding UAN solution or UAN solu­
tion plus oil concentrate to
Basagran DF on certain crops may
cause a slight leaf burn, but the
new growth is normal and crop
vigor IS not reduced. Refer to your
supplier of Basagran DF for infor­
mation concerning successful local
experience before using UAN solu­
tion.
)
)
AMS is a dry granular nitrogen
source fertilizer. Several grades of
ammonium sulfate are currently
available, however, only fine feed
grade or spray grade AMS is rec­
ommended as an additive to
Basagran OF. Inferior grades of
AMS do not dissolve adecuately
and can plug spray nozzles.
Using AMS requires some prepara­
tion in mixing with Basagran" OF
as compared to UAN. (See
Mixing.)
Three quarts of liquid AMS (8-0-0
analysis) may be substituted for
granular AMS.
Do not add nitrogen (UAN or AMS)
solutions to Basagran OF for use
on rice, peanuts, or mint.
Rate of UAN Solution:
Ground application: 2.5-5% v/v
(1 gallon per acre maximum)
Air application: 2.5-5%v/v
(0.5 gallon per acre maximum)
Rate of AMS solution:
Ground Application: 2.5 pounds
per acre
Air application: AMS solution is
not recommended due to potential
precipitation problems in reduced
water volumes. AMS can be used
provided a minimum of 10 gallons
of solution per acre is applied. Use
only if the source of AMS has been
demonstrated to be successful in
local experience.
Mixing
RII tank of a thoroughly clean
sprayer half to two-thirds full with
clean water. Star! agitation and add
Basagran OF; allow to mix thor-
0ughy. Add oil concentrate and/or
nitrogen solution and remaining VOl­
ume of water. Maintain constant
agitation during application.
Ammonium Sulfate lAMS)
AMS may be added in place of
UAN to the spray solution. Use
AMS at 2.5 pounds per acre. Use
only fine feed grade or spray grade
AMS. RII sprayer tank two-thirds full
with clean water. Begin agitation,
slowly add required amount of AMS
to the tank. Adding too quickly may
clog outlet lines. Allow AMS crystals
to dissolve completely.
Complete mixing procedures by
addition of Basagran OF and
remaining water. Maintain agitation
during application to ensure com­
plete mixing.
Rinse ecuipment after use to mini­
mize corrosive activity of AMS.
To determine AMS quality, pertorrn
a jar test adding 1/3 cup of AMS to
1 gallon of water and agitate for 1
minute. If undissolved sediment is
observed, predissolve AMS in water
and filter before adding it to the
spray tank.
Jar Test for Estimating
Suitability of Mixes:
1. Water supply: Use only water
from the intended source and at
the source temperature.
2. Amount of water in jar:
Ground application - for 20
gallons per acre spray volume,
use 31/3 cups (800 ml) of water.
Air application - for 5 gallons
per acre spray volume, use 5/6
cup (200 ml) of water, or for 10
gallons per acre spray volume,
use 12/3 cup (400 ml) of water.
For other spray volumes, adjust
proportionately to above. Add
2/3 the volume of water to the
jar.
3. Amount of herbicide and oil
concentrate and/or UAN to
add: Add herbicides and oil con­
centrate and/or UAN at the rate
of 1 teaspoon (5 ml) for each pint
of recommended label rate.
4. Add components in the fol­
lowing sequence, gently mixing
between component additions:
1) Basagran OF, and when
applicable, other dry products
(dry ftowables and wettable
powders) when applicable.
2) Water-miscible products (such
as Blazer), liquid fertilizers or
liquid flowables.
3) Oil concentrate.
4) Poast" herbicide or other
emulsifiable concentrates when
applicable.
5) Add remaining volume of water.
5. Cap jar, invert 10 cycles, let
stana for 15 minutes, evaluate.
6. Evaluation: An ideal tank mix
combination will be uniform;
thus, the suitability of the mix is
questionable if any of the follow­
ing are observed:
Free oil at the surtace - film or
globules.
Rocculation - fine particles which
may be suspended in the liquid
or found as precipitated layer at
the bottom of the jar.
Clabbering - thickening texture
(coagulated) resembling yogurt or
a curd-like texture as with cot­
tage cheese.

Restrictions and Limitations "'~
Do not apply Basagran OF to
crops that have been subject to
stress conditions such as hail dam­
age, fiooding, drought, injury from
other herbicides or widely fiuctuat-
ing temperatures, as crop injury
may result.
Do~t apply Basagran OF to
crops injured (leaf phy1otoxicity or
plant stunting) by any prior herbi­
cide applications. This injury may be
enhanced or prolonged.
Do not apply Basagran OF during
prolonged periods of drought or
during unseasonably cold weather,
as unsatisfactory weed control may
result.
Clean sprayer thoroughly before
applying Basagran OF, particularly
If a herbiCide was used which has
the potential to injure the crop to be
sprayed with Basagran OF,
Do not apply this product through
ant type of irrigation system.
Ralnfall or overhead irrigation soon
after application may decrease the
effectiveness of Basagran OF.
BASF does not recommend the use
of Basagran OF tank mixes other
than those listed on BASF labels,
supplemental labels, or technical
bulletins. Reduced efficacy, physical
incompatibility or crop injury may
result from mixing Basagran OF
with other pesticides, additives or
fertilizers. Local agricultural authori­
ties may be a source of information
when using other than BASF rec­
ommended combinations.
Do not apply more than a total of
36 ounces of Basagran OF per acre
in one season.
Do not apply more than a total of
2.0 pounds of bentazon a.i. (from all
sources) per acre per season.

SOYBEANS
Directions For Use
Apply Basagran& OF when weeds
are small and actively growing and
before weeds reach the maximum
size listed in Table 1. Such applica­
tions generally correspond to the
soybean growth stages of unifoliate
to two expanded trifoliate leaves.
Table 1
Application Rates for Soybeans
Mixing with Insecticides
A need may arise that requires
postemergence or foliar control of
certain insects in the soybean crop.
It is possible to tank mix an insecti­
cide with Basagran OF if the prop­
er application timing of the insecti­
cide coincides with the application
timing of Basagran OF.
Insecticides that may be used are
Furadan 3 4F, Pounce·, Pydrino,
dimethoate, and Lorsban 4E.
Do not tank mix Basagran OF with
malathion or Sevin&. The tank mix
addition of an insecticide to
Basagran OF may increase the
potential for crop injury.
Consult the respective labels for
Directions For Use and
Restrictions and limitations of
each product. The most restrictive
labeling applies in tank mixes.
The exact conditions under which
an insecticide is tank mixed with
Basagran OF may vary and these
conditions may reduce good mixing
quality.
Before a tank mix of Basagran OF
and an insecticide is mixed. a jar
test should be conducted following
the directions in Jar Test for
Estimating Suit3mlity of Mixes.
Restrictions and Limitations
(partial list)
Do not apply more than a total of
36 ounces of Basagran OF per
acre in one season.
Do not graze or cut treated soy­
bean fields for forage or hay for at
least 30 days after the last treat­
ment of Basagran OF.

Special Directions for Other Weed Problems in Soybeans
Annual Momingglories
South: (AL, AR, FL, GA, LA, MS, NC, OK, SC, TN, TX, and VA)
To control smallflower and cypressvine morningglories apply either 14 oz. of Basagran OF
per acre to plants not larger than 4 true leaves and 4 inches in height, or 18 oz. of
Basagran OF per acre to plants not larger than 6 true leaves and 6 inches in height. Add
oil concentrate to the spray solution with Basagran OF. (See section Addition of Oil
Concentrate.)
To control palmleaf, pitted, tall (common), entire/eaf, purple moonflower, and ivyleaf morn-
ingglories, apply 14 oz. of Basagran OF per acre to plants not larger than 4 true leaves-
and 4 inches in height (14-18 days after momingglory emergence).
All states other than the South:
Apply 18-28 oz. of Basagran OF per acre to annual morningglories not larger than 4 true
leaves. Control may be partial or inconsistent. Add oil concentrate to the spray solution of
Basagranlwater. (See section Addition of Oil Concentrate.)
Because morningglories grow very rapidly, it is important to watch the grow1h stage care-
fully and to be certain that Basagran OF is applied to morningglories before they exceed
the maximum size recommended on this label.
Canada Thistle
Apply 18 oz. of Basagran OF per acre when plants are from 8 inches tall to bud stage.
Make a second application at the same rate 7-10 days later. Add oil concentrate to the
spray solution of Basagran OF. (See section Addition of Oil Concentrate.)
Yellow Nutsedge
Two applications are preferred for best results. Apply 14-18 oz. of Basagran OF per acre
when plants are 6-8 inches tall. If needed, make a second application at the same rate 7-
10 days later. Add oil concentrate to the spray solution of Basagran OF. Add oil concen-
trate to the spray solution of Basagran OF. ~
Field and Hedge Bindweed in KY, Il, IN, MI, and OH only
For suppression of field and hedge bindweed, apply 18-28 oz. of Basagran OF per acre
when vines are a maximum of 10 inches long. Add oil concentrate to the spray solution
with Basagran OF.
late Cocklebur Rescue Treatment
This treatment only provides partial control of cocklebur in the event earily postemergence
treatments were not made. Very thorough spray coverage is essential. Apply a single appli-
cation of 18-28 oz. of Basagran OF per acre to plants up to 24 inches tali. For better con-
trol, apply 14 oz. of Basagran OF to plants up to 24 inches tall, repeat 10-14 days later.
late Velvet/eaf Rescue Treatment
Partial velvetleaf control can be obtained in the event postemergence treatments were not
made. Thorough coverage is essential. Apply a single application of 28 oz. per acre of
Basagran OF plus 1 qullrt of oil concentrate and 1 gallon of UAN solution to velvetleaf
plants up to 12 inches. For better control, apply 14 oz. per acre of Basagran OF plus 1
quart of oil concentrate plus 1 gallon of UAN solution (AMS may be substituted) followed in
4-7 days with the same treatment.

weed growth stages indicated in
Table 1 and when the weeds are
actively growing.
With Blazer in the tank mix, appli­
cations of Basagran OF should be
timed according to the weed
growth stages indicated in Tables
2, 3, and 4 when the weeds are
actively growing.
If weeds are not at the correct
) growth stage for treatment at the
same time, separate applications
should be made. Delay in applica­
tion permits weeds to exceed the
maximum size stated and will result
in inadequate control.

Basagran DF + Pinnacle Tank
Mix - Soybeans
General Information
The tank mix of Basagran DF +
Pinnacle" herbicide will control
certain weeds not controlled by
Basagran DF or Pinnacle alone
(see Table 13).
The tank mix is effective mainly
through contact action. Therefore,
weeds must be thoroughly covered
with spray. Large crop-and-weed
leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds
and prevent adequate spray cover­
age.
Time and Rate of Application
The rates of application and weed
sizes for the use of this tank mix are
given in the Table 13. Applications
of this tank mix made to weeds that
are in the cotyledon stage, larger
than the size in Table 13, or to
weeds under stress, may result in
unsatisfactory control. Soybeans
are tolerant to the tank mix of
Basagran DF + Pinnacle after the
first trifoliate soybean leaf has fully
expanded; however, under condi­
tions of high temperature or humidi­
ty some leaf-bronzing or leaf-speck­
ling of soybean foliage may occur.
Soybean plants will generally out­
grow this condition within 10-14
days.
Water Volume and Spray
Pressure
Apply recommended rates of this
tank mix as follows:
Ground equipment
Broadcast application: Use a
minimum of 20 gallons of water PElr
acre on a broadcast basis. Use a
minimum of 40 psi (measured at the
boom not at the pump or in the
Table 13
line). Do not use flood, hollow cone,
whirl chamber, or controlled droplet
application (CDA) nozzles.
Band application: For band appli·
cation, apply proportionately less.
Calibrate band applicator to not
exceed labeled rate.
Air equipment: Use a minimum of
5 gallons of water per acre. Consult
the respective labels for special
directions for aerial applications.
Refer to Directions For Use - All
Crops for Mixing information.
Additives
Applications of Basagran DF plus
Pinnacle tank mix must include a
nonionic surfactant at the rate (con­
centration) of 1-2 pints per 100 gal­
lons of spray solution (0.125%-
0.25% v/v). USING THE HIGHER
RATE OF NONIONIC SURFAC­
TANT, PARTICULARLY UNDER
HOT, HUMID CONDITIONS, MAY
INCREASE TEMPORARY CROP
INJURY.
Use only EPA-approved surfactants
authorized for use on food crops.
Use a nonionic surfactant of at least
80% active ingredient.
Under dry conditions or during cool
weather, a crop oil concentrate at 4
pints per 100 gallons of spray solu­
tion (0.5% v/v) may be used to
enhance weed control. Use a petro­
leum based crop oil concentrate
(0.5% v/v) w~h at least 15% emulsi·
fiers/surfactant. USING CROP OIL
CONCENTRATE MAY INCREASE
TEMPORARY INJURY TO SOy­
BEANS.
Apply a nitrogen solution to control
velvetleaf. Use 1 gallon per acre
maximum (2.5-5% v/v). Refer to

Basagran· DF + Classic
General Information
The tank mix of Basagran OF plus
Classic· herbicide will improve
control of certain weeds listed on
The Basagran DF or Classic labels
(see Table 14). The tank mix is
effective mainly through contact
action. Therefore, weeds must be
thoroughly covered with spray.
Time and Rate of Application
The rates of application and weed
sizes for the use of this tank mix are
given in Table 14. Applications of
this tank mix made to weeds that
are in the cotyledon stage, larger
than the sizes in Table 14, or to
weeds under stress, may result in
unsatisfactory control.
Soybeans are tolerant to the tank
mix of Basagran + ClaSSic, how­
ever, under high temperatures or
humidity, some leaf -bronzing or
leaf-speckling of soybean foliage
may occur. Soybean plants gener­
ally outgrow this condition in 10-14
)days.
Water Volume and Spray
Pressure
Apply recommended rates of this
tank mix as follows:
Ground Equipment:
Broadcast Application: Use a
minimum of 20 gallons of water per
acre on a broadcast basis. Use flat
fan nozzles with a minimum of 40
psi (measured at the boom, not at
the pump or in the line). Do not use
flood, hollow cone, whirl chamber,
or controlled droplet application
(CDA) nozzles.
Air Equipment: Use a minimum of
5 gallons of water per acre. Consult
the respective labels for special
directions for aerial applications.
Additives
Applications of Basagran OF +
Classic tank mix must include a
nonionic surfactant at the concen­
tration of 1-2 pints per 1 00 gallons
of spray solution (0.125-0.25% v/v).
USING THE HIGHER RATE OF
NONIONIC SURFACTANT MAY
INCREASE TEMPORARY CROP
INJURY, PARTICUlARLY UNDER
HOT, HUMID CONDITIONS. Use
only EPA-approved surfactants
authorized for use on food crops.
Use a non ionic surfactant of at least
80% active ingredient.
Do not use Dash" HC spray adju­
vant. Under hot, dry conditions or
during cool weather, a crop oil con­
centrate at 4 pints per 100 gallons
of spray solution (0.5% v/v) may be
used to enhance weed control. Use
a petroleum-based crop oil concen­
trate with at least 15% emulsifiers
or surfactant. USING A CROP OIL
CONCENTRATE MAY INCREASE
TEMPORARY INJURY TO SOY­
BEANS.
Adding ammonium nitrogen fertilizer
is required to control velvetleaf. Use
a high quality liquid nitrogen fertilizer
such as 28-0-0 at a rate of 2-4
quarts per acre or 10-34-0 at 1-2
quarts per acre. Alternatively, a high
quality, sprayable grade of ammoni­
_ um sulfate (21-0-0) may be used at
2.5 pounds per acre.
Adding ammonium nitrogen fertilizer
does not replace the need for a sur­
factant. Use a lower rate of nitrogen
fertilizer for aerial applications.

and sorghum may occur, but plants
generally outgrow this condition
within 10 days. Corn types include
field, sweet, popcorn, and corn
grown for seed or silage. Sorghum
types include grain and forage
sorghum.
Restrictions and Limitations
Do not apply more than a total of
36 ounces per acre in one season

RICE - Directions For Use
(Not for use in California)
Apply Basagran" OF herbicide
early pastemergence, before weeds
exceed the maximum size listed in
the Application Rate Table for
Rice.
Early application produces the most
beneficial effect on crop yields,
allows use of the lower rate
(depending on weed species), and
makes thorough spray coverage
easier to obtain. Delay in application
permits weeds to exceed the maxi­
mum size for a given rate and will
result in inadequate control.
Basagran OF has no adverse
effect on rice when used according
to directions and may be used on
the first and second (ratoon) crops.
If grasses are a problem, use
propanil in the tank mix.
For optimal coverage when apply­
ing Basagran OF by air in rice, ori­
ent all nozzles straight back. For
additional aerial application informa­
,tion, refer to Directions For Use.
) Oil concentrate should be applied
according to the directions in
Addition of Oil Concentrate.
When tank mixing Basagran OF
with propanil, oil concentrate should
not be included as crop injury may
be enhanced.
Alternate flooding culture: In
Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and
Mississippi, weed growth stages
generally correspond to rice that is
til/ering (stooling) and occur before
the permanent flood. Basagran OF
must be applied when there is no
water on the field and 24 hours or
more prior to fiooding. If Basagran
OF cannot be applied until after
. flooding, see directions under
. ) Continuous Flooding Culture.
Continuous Flooding Culture: In
states using continuous flooding
culture, or when treating after the
permanent flOOding, treatment
should be made only when weeds
are above the surface of the water.
Weeds submerged at the time of
application will not be adequately
controlled.
For early treatment, water may be
partly or completely drained to
expose more weed growth to spray
applications of Basagran OF. Do
not raise water level for at least 24
hours after application as unsatis­
factory control may result. Do not
use ground equipment to apply to
flooded fields because splashing
will wash Basagran OF off weed
leaf surfaces and ineffective control
may result.
Restrictions and Limitations
Rice straw may be fed to livestock.
Do not apply more than 36 ounces
of Basagran OF per acre in one
season. (Maximum of 18 ounces
per acre in first crop and 18 oz. per
acre in second [ratoonl crop.)
Do not use Basagran OF on rice
fields in which the commercial culti­
vation of catfish or crayfish is prac­
ticed.
Do not use water containing
Basagran OF residues from rice
cultivation to irrigate crops used for
food or feed unless Basagran OF
is registered for use on these crops.
Do not contaminate water when
disposing of equipment wash
water.
26
Tank mix with Propanil
Use a tank mix of Basagran OF +
propanil by ground or air to control
mixed populations of grasses,
sedges, and broadleaf weeds listed
as susceptible on the two product
labels,
Prepare the tank mix by adding
Basagran OF to balf the final vol­
ume of water with agitator running.
Then add propanil and bring mix to
final volume. Agitation must be con­
tinuous from time of mixing through
spraying.
Apply up to 18 ounces of
Basagran OF per acre per applica­
tion.
Do not apply more than 36 ounces
of Basagran OF per acre on the
crop per growing season. Use up to
5 pounds active ingredient (a.i.) of
propanil for additional broad leaf
weed control and grass control with
Basagran OF.
Apply this tank mix only to drained
fields.
Restrictions and Limitations
Observe all restrictions and limita­
tions on the Basagran OF and the
propanillabels. In tank mixes, the
most restrictive labeling applies.
Do not use propanil on second crop
(ratoon) rice.
When applying tank mix of
Basagran OF and propanil by air,
orient all nozzles straight back in
accordance with the propanil label.
Do not use crop oil concentrate
with this tank mix.
Add propanil to the tank mix of
Basagran OF based on active
ingredient (a.i.) of formulation used.
Propanil products should be tested
for physical tank mix compatibility
with Basagran OF. Please refer to
the Jar Test for Estimating
Suitability of Mixes.

Special Directions for Other Weed Problems in Peanuts
Annual Momingglories
To control smal/flower and cypressvine momingglories apply either 14 oz. of Sasagran OF per acre to plants not larger than 4
true leaves and 4 inches in height, or 18 oz. of Sasagran OF per acre to plants not larger than 6 true leaves and 6 inches in
height.
To control palmleaf, pitted, common, entireleaf, purple moonflower and ivyleaf morningglories, apply 14 oz. of Sasagran OF
per acre to plants not larger than 4 true leaves and 4 inches in height (14-18 days after morningglory emergence). Make a
second application at the same rate of 5-14 days later.
Because morningglories grow very rapidly, it is important to watch the growth stage carefully and to be certain that Sasagran
OF is applied to morningglories before they exceed the maximum size recommended. Add oil concentrate to the spray solu-
tion 01 Sasagran OF/water for each application (see Addition of Oil Concentrate).

General Information
These directions are intended to
provide the user 01 Basagran OF
with instructions for tank mixing
with 2,4-DB (such as Butyrac· 200
or Butoxone e 200 herbicides) to
control entireleaf, tall (common),
and ivyleal momingglories in addi­
tion to all other weeds listed in
Table 21. Weeds must be actively
growing and at recommended
growth stages. Delay in application
permits weeds to exceed maximum
size stated and will result in inade­
quate control.
Under certain conditions peanuts
may have a white, bleached
appearance and the leaves may be
slightly elongated.

Basagran~ OF + Startire Tank
Mix· - Peanuts
General Information
The tank mix of Basagran OF +
Starfire will also control certain
weeds not controlled by Basagran
OF alone (see Tank Mix
Recommendation Table).
Because this tank mix is effective
mainly through contact action, thor-
0ugh coverage of weeds is essential
for effective weed control. Large
crop-and-weed leaf canopies shel­
ter smaller weeds and prevent ade­
Quate spray coverage. Crop foliage
present at application may bronze
or crinkle, but the plants will soon
outgrow these effects and develop
normally.
TIme and Rate of Application
The application rates and weed
sizes for this tank mix are given in
the Rate and Time Application
Table. This tank mix should be
applied at the ground crack stage
Apply the Basagran OF + Startire
tank mix to actively growing weeds
before they reach the maximum size
listed in the Rate and Time of
Application Table 22.
Application to weeds that exceed
the maximum size stated may result
in inadequate control.
Additives
PJways add a non ionic surfactant
containing at least 50% surface
active agent at the rates listed in the
Table 25.
Do not use crop oil concentrate or
any other oil-based additive with
this tank mix.
Water Volume and Spray
Pressure
\of peanuts to control an early flush

growing under moisture stress are
not actively growing and will not be
satisfactorily controlled.
Avoid applying Basagran OF dur­
ing prolonged periods of cold
weather (day temperature below
75' F and night temperature below
55' F for 2-5 days) because weed
cc~trol may be nullified.

General Information
The tank mix of Basagran OF her­
bicide plus ThistrolO herbicide will
control certain weeds not controlled
by Basagran OF alone (see Table
28 Application Rates for Tank
Mix of Basagran OF + Thistrol
for Peas).
Because this tank mix is effective
mainly through contact action, thor-
0ugh coverage of weeds is essential
for effective weed control. Large
crop-and-weed leaf canopies shel­
ter smaller weeds and prevent ade­
quate spray coverage.
Time and Rate of Application
Application rates and weed sizes for
this tank mix are given in Table 28.
This tank mix should be applied
after the 3-leaf stage (4-node stage)
of peas, but not later than 3 nodes
before pea flowering.
Apply the tank mix of Basagran OF
plus Thistrol to weeds that are
actively growing and before weeds
reach the maximum size listed.
Application to weeds that exceed
the maximum size stated may result
in inadequate control.

Notice to user
Due to variability among pea culti­
vars and in application techniques,
neither the manufacturers nor the
sellers have determined whether or
not the tank mix of Basagran OF +
Thistrol can be safely used on all
pea crops under all conditions. It is
therefore recommended that the
user determine if the tank mix of
Basagran OF + Thistrol can be
used safely prior to broad use.
Spray Additives
Do not use crop oil concentrate,
other oil-based additives, or any
other spray additives or surfactants
with this tank mix.
Water Volume and Spray
Pressure
Use a spray volume of 20-40 gal­
lons of total spray mixture per acre

Special Directions for the
Pacific Northwest (PNW)
Peas (Dry or Succulent)
Apply Basagran· OF herbicide to
actively growing weeds before they
reach the maximum size listed in
the Application Rates Table for
Pacific Northwest Peas (Dry or
Succulent) .
The tank mix of Basagran OF plus
MCPA will control the weeds listed
in Table 30.
Addition of Oil Concentrate
A nonphytotoxic oil concentrate
(commonly referred to as oil con­
centrate) may be added to the
spray tank. The oil concentrate
must contain either a petroleum or
vegetable oil base and must meet
all the following criteria: 1) be ron­
phytotoxic. 2) contain only EPA-
Table 29
exempt ingredients, 3) provide
good mixing quality, and 4) be suc­
cessful in local experience.
Additional information may be found
in the section titled Addition of Oil
Concentrate - All Crops.
Temperature considerations
Crop and weeds must be actively
growing. Basagran OF herbicide
may be applied during periods of
cold weather (day temperatures
below 75° F and night temperatures
below 550 F provided crop and
weeds are actively growing. Do not
apply Basagran OF with oil con­
centrate when temperature
exceeds 800 F, as excessive leaf
bum may occur.
Application Rates for Pacific Northwest Peas (Dry or Succulent)
Restrictions and Limitations
(partial list)
Do not apply more than a total of
36 ounces of Basagran OF per
acre in one season.
Do not apply Basagran OF to dry
or succulent peas within 30 days of
harvest.
Do not apply BasWll'an OF to peas
under stress from root rot.
Do not apply Basagran OF to
bJackeyes grown in California, gar­
banzo beans or chick peas, or to
lupines at any stage of growth, as
severe crop damage may occur.

Peppermint and Spearmint­
Directions For Use
Apply Basagran" OF herbicide
early post emergence to actively
growing weeds before they reach
maximum size listed in Table 31,
Application Rates for
Peppermint and Spearmint.
Peppermint and spearmint are toler­
ant to Basagran OF; however,
some leaf-burning may occur under
certain conditions, such as when
plants are growing very actively and
have extensive new, succulent tis­
sue. Mint plants generally outgrow
this condition within 10 days.
Irrigated areas
In irrigated areas it may be neces­
sary to irrigate before treating with
Basagran OF to ensure that weeds
are actively growing. Weeds grow­
ing under drought conditions or
unseasonably cold weather usually
are not satisfactorily controlled.
Restrictions and Limitations
Do not apply more than a total of 36
ounces of Basagran OF per acre in
one season.

dandelion, onion/garlic, wood sor­
rel, and spurge.
Application Information
Apply Basagran Dry T 10 to active­
ly growing weeds postemergence
under good soil moisture condi­
tions. If desired control of yellow
nutsedge or Canada thistle is not
obtained with the first application,
make a second application 10-14
days later or when new growth
appears.
In the northern United States, yel­
low nutsedge can emerge from May
through July, while in the sou1hern
United States, nutsedge and
broadleaf weeds can emerge
throughout the year. Therefore, ini­
tial applications should be planned
when most plants have emerged. If
new plants emerge later in the sea­
son, make a second application of
Basagran Dry TIO according to
the label directions. In unmowed
turf, make the first application
postemergence but before yellow
nutsedge, annual sedge, and
Canada thistle are 8 inches tall.
Annual broadleaf weeds should be
no taller than 4 inches. Thorough
spray coverage of yellow nutsedge
is essential for maximum control.
For optimum control, do not mow
within 3 days before or after appli­
cation. For sedges, do not mow
within 5 days of application.
Use a minimum water volume of 1
gallon per 1,000 square feet (40
gallons per acre) with a minimum
pressure measured at the nozzle of
40 psi.
Application Rate: See Table 1 for
application rate of Basagran Dry
T/O.
Addition of Oil Concentrate
A nonphytotoxic oil concentrate
(commonly referred to as oil con­
centrate) may be added to the
spray tank for certain weed prob­
lems. The oil concentrate must con­

lowing criteria:
• be nonphytotoxic,
• contain only EPA-exempt ingredi­
ents,
• provide good mixing quality in the
jar test (see below), and
• be successful in local experience.
The exact composition of suitable
products will vary, however, veg­
etable and petroleum oil concen­
trates should contain emulsifiers
which provide good mixing quality.
Highly refined vegetable oils have
been observed to be more satisfac­
tory than unrefined vegetable oils.
For additional information, see Jar
Test for Estimating Suitability of
Oil Concentrates.
Adding oil concentrate to
Basagran Dry T 10 may cause a
slight leaf burn when relative humid­
ity and temperature are high. Refer
to your supplier of Basagran Dry
TIO for information conceming suc­
cessful local experience before pur­
chasing any oil concentrate.
Rate of Oil Concentrate
0.75 fluid ounce per 1 ,DOD square
feet or 2 pints per acre.
Jar Test for Estimating
Suitability of Oil Concentrates:
1. Water Supply: Use only water
from the intended source at the
source temperature.
2. Amount of Water in Jar:
Ground Application: For 1 gal­
lons per 1,000 square feet spray
volume, use 62/3 cups (1600 ml)
of water. For other spray vol­
umes, adjust proportionately to
above.
3. Amount of herbicide and oil
concentrate to add: Add O. 1 7
ounces of Basagran Dry T/O
and 2 teaspoons of oil concen­
trate for each 0.41 ounce of
Basagran Dry T 10 per 1, 000
square feet of recommended
label rate.

4. Add components in the follow­
ing sequence, gently mixing
between additions:
1. Basagran Dry T/O
2. Tank mix product, if used
3. Oil concentrate
5. Cap jar, invert 10 cycles, let
stand for 15 minutes, evaluate.
6. Evaluation: An ideal tank mix
~mbination will be uniform.
Thus, the suitability of the oil
concentrate is questionable if
any of the following are
observed:
Free oil at the surface - film or
globules.
Rocculation - fine particles which
may be suspended in the liquid
or found as a precipitated layer
at the bottom of the jar.
Clabbering - thickening texture
(coagulated) resembling yogurt
or a curd-like texture as with cot­
tage cheese.
Spray Equipment
Hand-held pump-up, knapsack, or
hose-end type sprayers are suitable
for applying Basagran Dry T/O.
Do not spray during windy condi­
tions because spray drift may cause
damage to adjacent omamental
plants. Rinse equipment with soap
and water after use.
Mixing
Fill the tank of a thoroughly clean
sprayer one-half to two-thirds full of
clean water. Start agitation, add

Sprayer Calibration Suggestions
Hand Sprayers:
1 . Stake off a 400 square foot area
of turf for practice. This is an area
20' (7 steps) x 20'.
2. Add a measured quantity (1.5
gallons for example) of water to
the sprayer and uniformly spray
the 400 square foot area.
Measure water remaining to
determine the amount applied
per 400 square foot area. (Note:
A minimum of 3 pints per 400
square feet is recommended).
3. Prepare the spray solution
according to Table 1,
Application Rates for Turf.
Example: Assume that in Step 2
the 400 square foot area was
uniformly covered with 0.5 gallon
of water. Referring to the table,
add 0.16 ounces of Basagran"
Dry TIO herbicide per 0.5 gal­
Ion of water for each 400 square
foot of turf to be sprayed. (Note:
Using this mix to spot spray indi­
) vidual weeds may result in an
excessive dosage and possible
turf injury.)
Hose-end Applicator
A procedure similar to the above
may be followed for calibrating
hose-end sprayers. Half -fill contain­
er with water to an even mark on
the "gallons" scale and note the vol­
ume level. Spray the 400 square
foot area, noting the new reading,
and thereby determine the amount
of water used to spray the area.
Then proceed as in Step 3 above.

General Information
Basagran~ Dry T 10 herbicide is
intended for selective postemer­
gence control of certain broadleaf
weeds and sedges. (See Table 2
for specific weeds.) Basagran Dry
T/O does not control grasses.
Basagran Dry T/O is effective
mainly through contact action;
therefore, weeds must be thor­
oughly covered with spray. Large
weed leaf canopies shelter smaller
weeds and prevent adequate spray
coverage. Some leaf-speckling and
leaf-bronzing may occur under cer­
tain conditions. (See Restrictions
and Limitations section.)
Basagran Dry T/O may be applied
as a directed spray around all orna­
mental and nursery plants except
sycamore and rhododendron.
,pirections For Use
.Aate and Timing of Application
Apply Basagran Dry T/O early
postemergence to actively growing
weeds before they reach the maxi­
mum size listed in Table 2. Early
application to weeds produces the
most beneficial weed control
(exception: yellow nutsedge and
Canada thistle). Delaying application
permits weeds to exceed the maxi­
mum size stated and will result in
inadequate control.
Do not cultivate or mow within 5
days before or after application of
Basagran Dry T/O.
Addition of Oil Concentrate
Refer to Addition of Oil
Concentrate for more information.
Rate of Oil Concentrate
Use 0.75 fiuid ounces per 1,000
square feet (2 pints per acre).
Water Volume and Spray Pressure
Apply recommended rates of
Basagran Dry T/O with a mini­
mum of 0.5 gallon of water per
1,000 square feet (20 gallons per
acre) and a minimum of 40 psi
(measured at the boom, not at the
pump or in the line). When foliage is
dense, use up to 2.5 gallons of
water and up to 80 psi. Use stan­
dard high-pressure pesticide hollOW
cone or flat fan nozzles spaced 20
inches apart. Do not use flood, whirl
chamber, or controlled droplet
applicator (CDA) nozzles.
Special Information for Irrigated
Areas
If moisture is not adequate for
active weed growth, irrigate before
applying Basagran Dry T/O.
Weeds growing under drought con­
ditions usually are not satisfactorily
controlled.
Mixing
Fill the tank of a thoroughly clean
sprayer one-half to two-thirds full
with clean water. Start agitation,
add Basagran Dry T/O, and allow
to mix thoroughly. Add oil concen­
, trate and the remaining volume of
water. Maintain constant agitation
during application.
Over- The-Top Applications
Basagran Dry T/O may be applied
over-the-top of certain ornamental
species listed in Table 3 and to
non-crop sites listed below.
Noncrop Sites, Roadsides, and
Rights-of-Ways
Basagran Dry T lO-ffiay be used in
these sites where grass vegetation
must be maintained. Avoid drift
onto the vegetation as injury may
occur. A water volume sufficient to
obtain adequate coverage of the
weed should be used. Do not make
applications to open waters.
Notice to User
Due to the variability within species
and in application techniques, nei­
ther the manufacturer nor the Seller
has determined whether or not
Basagran Dry T 10 can be safely
used on all ornamentals, nursery,
and other nonfood sites under all
conditions. It is re~mmended
therefore, that the user determine if
Basagran Dry T/O can be used
safely prior to broad use.
Post-directed Applications
Apply Basagran Dry T/O around
landscape and ornamental trees,
shrubs, flowers, and other plants as
a directed spray away from the
foliage of desired plants, unless oth­
erwise directed.
Injury may occur when applying
Basagran Dry T/O as a directed
spray under the tree line or over the
roots of sycamore and rhododen­
dron. Do not use if the risk of injury
to these plants is not acceptable.

Application Information
Apply Basagran SG to activelv
growing weeds pcstemergence
under good soil moisture condi­
tions, If desired centrol of yellow
nutsedge or Canaja thistle is not
obtained with the 'irst application,
make a second application 10-14
days later or wher, new growth
appears,
In the northern United States, vel­
low nutsedge can emerge from May
through July, while in the southern
United States, nutsedge and
broadleal weeds can emerge
throughout the year, Therefore, ini­
tial applications should be planned
when most plants have emerged, If
new plants emerge later in the sea­
son, make a second application of
Basagran SG according to the
label directions, In unmowed turi,
make the first application postemer­
gence but before yellow nutsedge,
annual sedge, and Canada thistle
are 8 inches tall. Annual broadleaf
weeds should be no taller than 4
inches, Thorough spray coverage of
yellow nutsedge is essential for
maximum control.
For optimum control, do not mow
within 3 days before or after appli­
cation, For sedges, do not mow
within 5 days of application,
Use a minimum water volume of 1
gallon per 1,000 square feet (40
gallons per acre) with a minimum
pressure measured at the nozzle of
40 psi.

Sprayer Calibration Suggestions
Hand Sprayers:
1. Stake off a 400 square foot area
of turf for practice. This is an area
20' (7 steps) x 20'.
2. Add a measured quantity (1.5
gallons for example) of water to
the sprayer and uniformly spray
the 400 square foot area.
Measure water remaining to
determine the amount applied
per 400 square foot area. (Note:
A minimum of 3 pints per 400
square feet is recommended).
3. Prepare the spray solution
according to Table 1,
Application Rates for Turf.
Example: Assume that in Step 2
the 400 square foot area was
uniformly covered with 0.5 gallon
of water. Referring to the table,
add 0.16 ounces of Basagran~
SG herbicide per 0.5 gallon of
water for each 400 square foot of
turf to be sprayed. (Note: Using
.) this mix to spot spray individual
weeds may result in an excessive
dosage and possible turf injury)
Hose-end Applicator
A procedure similar to the above
may be followed for calibrating
hose-end sprayers. Half-fill contain­
er with water to an even mark on
the "gallons" scale and note the vol­
ume level. Spray the 400 square
foot area, noting the new reading,
and thereby determine the amount
of water used to spray the area.
Then proceed as in Step 3 above.

General Information
Basagran" SG herbicide is
intended for selective postemer­
gence control of certain broadleaf
weeds and sedges. (See Table 2
for specific weeds.) Basagran SG
does not control grasses.
Basagran SG is effective mainly
through contact action; therefore,
weeds must be thoroughly covered
with spray. Large weed leaf
canopies shelter smaller weeds and
prevent adequate spray coverage.
Some leaf-speckling and leaf­
bror,zing may occur under certain
conditions. (See Restrictions and
Limitations section.)
Basagran SG may be applied as a
directed spray around all ornamen­
tal and nursery plants except
sycamore and rhododendron.
.Directions For Use
Rate and Timing of Application
App'y Basagran SG early poste­
mergence to actively growing
weeds before they reach the maxi­
mum size listed in Table 2. Early
application to weeds produces the
most beneficial weed control
(exception: yellow nutsedge and
Canada thistle). Delaying application
permits weeds to exceed the maxi­
mum size stated and will result in
inadequate control.
)
Do not cultivate or mow within 5
days before or after application of
Basagran SG.
Addition of Oil Concentrate
Refer to Addition of Oil
Concentrate for more information.
Rate of Oil Concentrate
Use 0.75 fluid ounces per 1,000
square feet (2 pints per acre).
Water Volume and Spray Pressure
Apply recommended rates of
Basagran SG with a minimum of
0.5 gallon of water per 1 ,000
square feet (20 gallons per acre)
and a minimum of 40 psi (measured
at the boom, not at the pump or in
the line). When foliage is dense, use
up to 2.5 gallons of water and up to
80 pSi. Use standard high-pressure
pesticide hollow cone or fiat fan
nozzles spaced 20 inches apart. Do
not use !iood, whirl chamber, or
controlled droplet applicator (CDA)
nozzles.
Special Information for Irrigated
Areas
If moisture is not adequate for
active weed growth, irrigate before
applying Basagran SG. Weeds
growing under drought conditions
usually are not satisfactorily con­
trolled.
Mixing
Fill the tank of a thoroughly clean
sprayer one-half to two-thirds full
with clean water. Start agitation,
add Basagran SG, and allow to
mix thoroughly. Add oil concentrate
, and the remaining volume of water.
Maintain constant agitation during
. application.
Over- The-Top Applications
Basagran SG may be applied
over -the-top of certain ornamental
species listed in Table 3 and to
non-crop sites listed below.
Noncrop Sites, Roadsides, and
Rights-of-Ways
Basagran SG m3i"'be used in
these sites where grass vegetation
must be maintained. Avoid drift
onto the vegetation as injury may
occur. A water volume sufficient to
obtain adequate coverage of the
weed should be used. Do not make
applications to open waters.
Notice to User
Due to the variability within species
and in application techniques, nei­
ther the manufacturer nor the Seller
has determined whether or not
Basagran SG can be safely used
on all ornamentals, nursery, and
other nonfood sites under all condi­
tions. It is recomrt"€nded therefore,
that the user determine if
Basagran SG can be used safely
prior to broad use.
Post-directed Applications
Apply Basagran SG around land­
scape and ornamental trees,
shnubs, flowers, and other plants as
a directed spray away from the
foliage of desired plants, unless oth­
erwise directed.
Injury may occur when applying
Basagran SG as a directed spray
under the tree line or over the roots
of sycamore and rhododendron. Do
not use if the risk of injury to these
plants is not acceptable.
