HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS
CAUTION
Causes moderate eye injury. Harmful if swallowed. Prolonged or frequently repeated skin contact may cause allergic
reactions in some individuals. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
Personal Protective Equipment:
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
x Long-sleeved shirt and long pants, 
x Chemical-resistant gloves made of barrier laminate or Viton.
x Shoes plus socks. 
Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use
detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
Engineering controls statements:
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircra ft in a manner that meets with requirements listed in
the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240 (d) (4-6)], the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Users should:
Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.
Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
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 pesticide is extremely toxic to freshwater marine, and estuarine fish and aquatic invertebrates including shrimp
and oyster. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below
the mean highwater mark. Do not apply in a manner which will directly expose canals, lakes, streams, ponds,
marshes or estuaries to aerial drift. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate.
Non-target organism advisory statement: This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the
forage and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the
forage and habitat of non-target organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray drift
PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL HAZARDS
Do not use or store near heat and open flame.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Applied according to directions and under normal growin g conditions, TRIFLURALIN HF will not harm the treated
crop. Over application may result in crop injury or a soil residue.
Uneven application or improper soil incorporation can result in erratic weed control or crop injury. Seedling disease,
cold weather, deep planting, excessive moisture, high salt concentration or drought may weaken crop seedlings
and increase the possibility of damage. Under these condit ions, delayed crop development or reduced yields may
result.
To avoid crop injury, do not plant vegetable crops other than those listed on the label within 5 months following the
application of TRIFLURALIN HF.
In the Western United States—Arizona, Colorado, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico,
Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming, and sugar beet growing areas of Minnesota and North Dakota:
To avoid crop injury in arid areas, do not plant sugar beets, red beets or spinach for 12 months after a TRIFLURALIN
HF spring application or for 14 months after a TRIFLURALI N HF fall application. Plow the land to a depth of 12
inches prior to planting sugar beets to prevent the possibility of crop injury. To avoid crop injury do not plant sorghum
(milo), corn or oats for 14 months afte r a spring application or for 16 months after a fall application. If land has not
been irrigated, do not plant any of these crops for 18 months after a spring application or 20 months after a fall
application.
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]
3
In the Western United States—Those portions of Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota
and Texas where at least 25 inches of irrigation and/or rainfall (total) was used to produce the
crop: Do not plant sorghum or oats for 12 months after a TR IFLURALIN HF application. If less than 25 inches of
total water was used to produce the crop, do not plant sorg hum or oats for 18 months after application. Cool wet
weather conditions during the early stage of growth may increase the possibility of injury to sorghum.
In the Eastern United States:
Moldboard plow before planting sugar beets where a TRIFLURALIN HF
spring application was made the previous season. Also note planting restrictions listed in the section on control of
rhizome johnsongrass.
In North Dakota Only:
Green Foxtail resistance to Trifluralin and related herbicides in the spring cereal grain production areas:
Certain populations of green foxtail (Pigeongrass) in North Dakota have been identified as resistant to dinitroaniline
type herbicides such as trifluralin. Because TRIFLURA LIN HF will not control these resistant green foxtail,
alternative types of herbicides that ar e not dinitroanilines should be used. The grower assumes all risk of
nonperformance due to dinitroaniline resistance if TRI FLURALIN HF is used to control green foxtail in
affected spring cereal grain crops.
In Texas Only:
Do not use in Pecos or Reeves Counties

TRIFLURALIN HF is a pre-emergence herbicide which is mixed (incorporated) into the soil to provide long-lasting
control of a wide range of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. TRIFLURALIN HF controls weeds as they germinate
but will not control established weeds.
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
MODE OF ACTION (MOA)
Strut herbicide contains the active ingredients trifluralin. Trifluralin is a preemergent herbicide (Group 4 mode of action).
Trifluralin’s main mechanism of action is the inhibition of cell mitosis. This herbicide typically acts on the meristems and
tissues of underground organs, such as roots, epicotyls, hypocotyls, plumules, rhizomes, bulbs and seeds
Contact your local extension agent, crop ad visor, or sales representative to find out if suspected resistant weeds to this
MOA has 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. use the less resistance-prone pa rtner at a rate that will control the target weed(s) equally
as well as the more resistance-prone partner.
A given weed population may contain or develop resistance to an herbicide or herbicide MOA after repeated use.
Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be follow ed to mitigate or delay resi stance. If levels of control
provided by applications of this product is reduced and ca nnot be accounted for by factors such as misapplication,
abnormal levels of target species or extremes of weather, it may be the case that target species have developed a strain
resistant to applications of this product.
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.
If resistance develops, this product may not provide sufficient control of target species. Where you suspect target species
are developing resistance, contact State/local agricultural advisors. 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, or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage.
Integrated weed management guidelines promote an economically viable, envi ronmentally sustainable, and socially
acceptable weed control program regardless of the herbicid e(s) used. The highlights of successful integrated weed
management include:
1. Correctly identify weeds and look for trouble area s within field to identify resistance indicators.
2. Rotate crops.
3. Start the growing season with clean fields.
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]
4. Rotate herbicide modes of action by using multiple mo des of action during the growing season and apply no
more than 2 applications of a single herbicide mode of action to the same field in a 2-year period. One method
to accomplish this is to rotate herbicide tolerant trait systems.
5. Apply listed rates of herbicides to actively growin g weeds at the correct time with the right application
techniques.
6. Control any weeds that may have escaped the herbicide application.
7. Thoroughly clean field equipment between fields.
8. Scout before and after application to monitor weed po pulations for early signs of resistance development.
9. Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herb icide use that includes scouting and uses historical
information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, an d that considers tillage ( or other mechanical control
methods), cultural ( e.g., high er 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.
Contact your local agronomic advisor for more specific info rmation on integrated weed management for your area.
Users should report lack of performance to registrant or their representative. For mixtures including this herbicide note
that each listed weed may not be controlled by multiple mechanisms of action. Refer to crop specific directions (below)
for maximum application rates and number of applications.
SOIL TEXTURE
One key to getting good results with TRIFLURALIN HF is to know your soil texture so that you can apply the correct
rate. The amount you apply to your soil will vary with the soil texture. A fine-textured soil requires more TRIFLURALIN
HF than a coarse-textured soil.
Soil Texture Guide:
Refer to the following guide to determine your soil texture.
Coarse** Soils Sand
Loamy sand Sandy loam
Medium Soils Loam
Silty clay loam* Silt loam
Silt
Fine** Soils Sandy clay loam*
Clay
Clay loam
Silty clay loam* Silty clay Sandy clay
Sandy clay loam*
* Silty clay loam and sandy clay loam soils are transitional soils and may be classified as either medium or fine-textured
soils. If silty clay loam or sandy clay loam soils are predom inately sand or silt, they are usually classified as medium-
textured soils; if predominately clay, they are usually classified as fine-textured soils.
**Soil classification nomenclature for light and heavy-text ured soils have been changed to coarse and fine-textured
soils at the direction of the Environmental Protection Agen cy. Throughout this label all previous references to light-
textured soils have been changed to coarse-textured soils. All previous references to heavy-textured soils have been
changed to fine textured soils. These new descriptions relate more closely to the size of the soil particles in a given
classification.
SOIL PREPARATION
Destroy existing weeds before TRIFLURALIN HF application. Chop and thoroughly mix crop residues into the soil
to a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches by deep plowing or discing before application. Use machinery that breaks
up large clods before application. Crop residue and soil surface must allow for uniform incorporation into the top 2
to 3 inches of soil.
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Aerial Applications:
x Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy,
unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
x Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure that deliver medium or coarser droplets
in accordance with the most current version of the American Society of Agricultural & Biological
Engineers Standard 641 (ASABE S641).
x If the windspeed is 10 miles per hour of less, applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind
at the downwind edge of the field. When the windspeed is between 11- 15 miles per hour,
applicators must use ¾ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
x Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mile s per hour at the application site. If this
windspeed is greater than 10 mph, the boom leng th must be 65% or less of the wingspan for
fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Oth erwise, the boom
length must be 75% or less of the wing span for fixed wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor
diameter for helicopters.
x Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Ground Boom Applications:
x User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more
than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
x Applicators are required to select the nozzles and pressure that deliver medium or coarser
droplets in accordance with the most current version of the American Society of Agricultural &
Biological Engineers Standard 572 (ASABE S572).
x Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site.
x Do not apply during temperature inversions.
SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY
NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest
control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are
made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions.
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom (note to registrants: remove if ground boom is prohibited on product labels)
x Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the
highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a
nozzle with a higher flow rate.
x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommende d for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume
and droplet size.
x Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles
designed to reduce drift.
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
x Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ re commendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to
reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
x For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
RELEASE HEIGHT – Aircraft
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the
shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temp erature inversion. Temperature invers ions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence
of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or 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.
Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]
9
WIND
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift
SENSITIVE AREAS
The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies
of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing
away from the sensitive areas).
APPLICATION
Add the recommended amount of TRIFLURALIN HF to clean water in the spray tank during the filling operation. Agitate
before spraying. Apply in from 5 to 40 gallons of water pe r acre (broadcast basis), using any properly calibrated low-
pressure herbicide sprayer that will apply the spray uniforml y. As the amount of water used (spray volume) decreases,
the importance of accurate calibration and uniform applicat ion increases. Check the sprayer daily to insure proper
calibration and uniform application. Apply TRIFLURALIN HF to the soil surface and incorporate in the same operation, if
possible. Do not apply to soils which are wet or in poor cond ition. Do not apply to soils which are subject to prolonged
periods of flooding.
AERIAL APPLICATION
For best results from aerial application of TRIFLURALIN HF, ap ply to a dry soil surface at a spray volume of from 4 to
10 gallons per acre. Adjust pump pressure, nozzle arrangem ents, flying speed and flying height to provide a uniform
application to the soil surface. Use markers to assure proper application spray widths.
GENERAL CHEMIGATION
Use TRIFLURALIN HF at rates and stages of growth recommende d on the label, except as noted below. Apply in ½ to
1 acre inch of irrigation water. Mechanical incorporation is not necessary when TRIFLURALIN HF is applied through the
irrigation system but, except for established alfalfa, soil preparation must be done according to label instructions.
Treat Only the Following Crops At Stage Named:
ALFALFA: Apply during dormancy, semi-dormancy or immediately following a cutting. Destroy existing weeds before
application.
ASPARAGUS: Apply in the winter or early spring after ferns are removed but before spears emerge.
POTATOES: (Columbia River Basin of Washington and Oregon only): Apply after potato plants have fully emerged
on coarse and medium soils.
BEANS: (All types named on label): Preplant except no fall application.
SOYBEANS: Preplant except no fall application.
SUGAR BEETS: Apply when plants are between 2 and 6 inches tall.
CARROTS: Apply before planting. If application of TRIFLURALIN HF is by chemigation you may apply immediately after
planting and before weed germination.
FIELD CORN: Two-leaf to 30 inches.
General Chemigation cont’d.:
Apply this product only through sprinkler, including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, big gun,
solid set, or hand move irrigation system(s). Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Crop
injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated
water.
If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers
or other experts.
Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse syst ems) used for pesticide application to a public water
system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and respon sible for its operation, or under the supervision of the
responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
CHEMIGATION SYSTEMS CONNECTED TO PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS Note:
Loveland Products Inc. does not encourage connecting chem igation systems to public water supplies. The following
information is provided for users who ha ve diligently considered all other applic ation and water supply options before
[TRIFLURALIN HF

electing to make such a connection.
Public water system means a system for th e provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if such
system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60
days out of the year.
Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone, backflow
preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction.
As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to
pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical br eak (air gap) between the outl et end of the fill pipe and
the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe. The pesticide injection
pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closin g check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the
injection pump.
The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional , normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the
intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from
the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when
the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the
point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump)
effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with
a system interlock.
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
SPRINKLER CHEMIGATION
The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain
appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow.
The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the
flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on
the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn
from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down. The system must
contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump
motor stops.
The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when
the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump)
effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with
a system interlock.
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Mix in clean supply tank the
recommended amount of this product for acreage to be covered, and needed quantity of water. This product should
not be tank-mixed with other pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers unless prior use has shown the combination
noninjurious under your conditions of use.
Follow precautionary statements and directions for all tank-mix products.
Meter this product into the irrigation water uniformly during the period of operation. Do not overlap application. Follow
recommended label rates, application timing, and other directions and precautions for crop being treated.
Continuous mild agitation of pesticide mixture may be needed to assure a uniform application, particularly if the supply
tank requires a number of hours to empty.
INCORPORATION DIRECTIONS
Incorporation Before Planting
This product must be soil-incorporated within 24 hours of application either by mechanical incorporation or at least
0.5 acre inch of water (rainfall, irrigation). If a second incorporation is needed it should be delayed 3 to 5 days after
the first incorporation and be completed prior to planting (see Incorporation Equipment section for specific
instructions). If TRIFLURALIN HF is applied to a wet, warm soil surface or if the wind velocity is 10 mph or higher
variable weed control may result from delaying the first incorporation beyond 24 hours.
Incorporation should place the TRIFLURALIN HF into the top 2 to 3 inches of the final seedbed. Generally,
incorporation equipment will place the chemical approximatel y half as deep as the equipment is run. For example, a
disc running 4 inches deep will incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF approximately 2 inches deep.
Incorporation After Planting
(Check crop list for those crops approved for incorporation after planting.)
When incorporating TRIFLURALIN HF after planting or on established row crops use P.T.O.-driven equipment or
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]
11
rolling cultivators. Adjust equipment to till the soil over the seed or throw treated soil toward the crop. Avoid disturbing
the seed or mechanically damaging the crop.
Incorporation In Bedded Culture
For effective weed control, TRIFLURALIN HF should be incorporated into the top 2 to 3 inches of the final seedbed.
Knock off beds to planting height before application an d incorporation on bedded ground. If TRIFLURALIN HF is
applied and incorporated before bedding, do not furrow out deeper than the depth to which TRIFLURALIN HF was
incorporated. Furrowing too deep will expose untreated soil and allow weeds to germinate in the bottom of the furrow.
Avoid removal of treated soil from the seedbed before or du ring the planting operation. This will expose untreated
soil and allow weeds to germinate in the drill row. Incorporation Equipment
Use machinery that mixes TRIFLURALIN HF thoroughly with the soil. Shallow incorporation with implements set to
cut less than 2 inches deep may result in erratic weed control. Use of incorporation equipment not listed upon the
label may result in poor or erratic weed control and/or cr op injury. Except as recommended in the individual crop
directions, recommended equipment includes:
Disc set to cut 4 to 6 inches deep and operated in 2 differe nt directions at 4 to 6 mph. A tandem or double-disc
operated one time does not provide adequate incorporation.
Field cultivator set to cut 3 to 4 inches deep and operated at 5 mp h or more. The field cultiv ator used alone or in
combination with the double-disc will provide effective in corporation providing the following instructions are used:
Two passes over the field with a field cultivator with the second pass running at an angle to the first. Do not set
cultivator to cut deeper than 4 inches, particularly on the second pass, since untreated soil may be turned up.
1. Field cultivator used for the first pass and the double-disc used for the second pass.
2. Double-disc used for the first pass and the field cultivator used for the second pass.
NOTE: A field cultivator is defined as an implement with 3 to 4 rows of sweeps, spaced at intervals of 7 inches or
less and staggered so that no soil is left unturned. Chisel points should not be used.
Rolling cultivator set to cut 2 to 4 inches deep and operated 2 times at 6 to 8 mph. Rolling cultivators are adequate
for use on coarse and medium-textured soils only (except when used in sugarcane where the rolling cultivator may
be used on fine-textured soils).
Bed conditioner (Do-All) set to cut 2 to 4 inches deep and operat ed one time at 4 to 6 mph. Bed conditioners are
adequate for use on coarse and medium-textured soils only. In bedded culture, one pass is adequate.
Mulch treader and other similar disc-type implements set to cut 3 to 4 inches deep and operated at 5 to 8 mph in two
different directions.
P.T.O.-driven equipment (tillers, cultivators, hoes) set to cut 2 to 3 inches deep with rotors spaced to provide a clean
sweep of the soil and operated one time. P.T.O.driven equipment should not be operated at a speed greater than 4
mph.
Other equipment, including the flexible tine-tooth harrow (Flextine, Melroe) is also recommended but only for the
special programs for which it is specified in this label.
CULTIVATION AFTER PLANTING
Soil treated with TRIFLURALIN HF may be shallow-cultivat ed, rotary-hoed or handhoed without reducing the weed
control activity of TRIFLURALIN HF. Do not cultivate deep er than the TRIFLURALIN HF treated layer of soil since
this may bring untreated soil to the surface and poor weed control may result.

REGIONAL USE MAP
All crop recommendations on this label are given on a regional basis. The dividing line between the Eastern
and Western United States is that point where the averag e rainfall per year is a minimum of 20 to 25 inches.
Because the map is based on average conditions, it shou ld be used as a guideline only. Consult your local
Agricultural Extension Service and local weather service for information on specific use recommendations and
conditions in your area. Note: Sugar beet growing areas of Minnesota and North Dakota are sometimes
grouped with Western U.S. on this label.
CROP RECOMMENDATIONS
Important: The following crop recommendations are base d on average rainfall conditions. When the annual
rainfall amount in your area is radically different th an normal, the use recommendations on this label may not
be appropriate. For example, below normal rainfall in the Eastern U.S. may result in abnormally long
TRIFLURALIN HF carryover. Planting of susceptible rotation al crops may then result in crop loss or injury. In
the Western U.S., abnormally high rainfall may reduce th e period of effective weed control. For all areas, use
rates and rotational crops should be determined based on both local factors and crop recommendations on
this label. Read the NOTICE OF WARRANTY for manufacturer’s disclaimer of liability. If its conditions are not
acceptable, do not use this product.
Eastern United States
GENERAL
These recommendations are given as the broadcast (ove rall) rates of TRIFLURALI N HF per acre. For band
applications, use proportionately less. Apply TRIFLURALIN HF any time after January 1 when the soil can be
worked. Also see general and specific fall applicat ion directions. TRIFLURALIN HF is not recommended on
muck soils. Where a rate range is shown, use the lighter rate for more coarse soils or soils with lower organic
matter.
Western United States
GENERAL
These recommendations are given as the broadcast (ove rall) rates of TRIFLURALIN HF per acre. For band
application, use proportionately less. TRIFLURALIN HF is not recommended for peat soils exceeding 20%
organic matter or on any muck soils. Do not exceed recommended rates at any time. Where a rate range is
shown, use the lighter rate for more coarse soils or soils with lower organic matter.
TRIFLURALIN HF APPLIED ALONE
AND IN TANK MIXES WITH FLUID FERTILIZERS
HF combinations with solution and suspension-type fertilizers has provided weed and grass control as
claimed on the respective labels.
All recommendations for TRIFLURALIN HF alone or TRIFLURALIN HF tank-mix combinations regarding rates
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]

per acre, approved crops, incorporation, special in structions, warnings and special precautions must be
followed.
All individual state regulations relating to fluid fertiliz er mixing, registration, labeling and application are the
responsibility of the individual and/or company selling the fertilizer and chemical mixture.
COMPATIBILITY TEST
TRIFLURALIN HF alone and TRIFLURALIN HF combinations and some fluid fertilizer materials may not
combine properly. Small quantities should always be tested before full-scale mixing.
1. Put 1 pint of fertilizer mixture in a quart jar.
2. Add 2 teaspoonfuls of TRIFLURALIN HF and proportional amount of other tank mix products.
3. Close jar and shake well.
4. Watch mixture for several seconds, check again 30 minutes later.
5. If the mix does not separate, or if agitation is only needed to resuspend the mix, the combination may be
used. If the mixture separates, gets very thick or syrupy, DO NOT combine for field application.
6. Mixing ability may be improved by adding a compatibility agent. Follow the procedure outlined above and
add 0.1 teaspoonful of the compatibility agent in Step 2. Complete the other steps to determine if the
compatibility agent solves the problem.
If one is needed use a compatibility agent cleared for use on growing crops.
MIXING
If a compatibility agent is needed, add it to the fluid fertiliz er before adding the TRIFLURALIN HF alone or
TRIFLURALIN HF combination. If compatibility is a problem, mix 2 quarts of water with 1 quart of TRIFLURALIN
HF alone before pouring into the fertilizer.
Usually, TRIFLURALIN HF alone may be poured directly into the fluid fertilizer and mixed thoroughly. Wettable
powders, dry flowables, liquid flowables or aqueous suspensions should be mixed with the liquid fertilizer before
adding TRIFLURALIN HF. Add solution formulations last. Continued agitation is needed until application is
complete.
APPLICATION
Spread the fertilizer/chemical mixture normally with a properly calibrated applicator. Be certain the
material is applied uniformly to the soil surface.
INCORPORATION
Follow normal TRIFLURALIN HF incorporation procedures.
TRIFLURALIN HF APPLICATION WITH DRY BULK FERTILIZERS
GENERAL
Dry bulk fertilizers may be impregnated or coated with TRIFLURALIN HF. Application of dry bulk fertilizers
impregnated with TRIFLURALIN HF has provided wee d and grass control equal to the same rates of
TRIFLURALIN HF applied in water.
All TRIFLURALIN HF label recommendations regarding rates per acre, approved crops, incorporation,
special instructions, cautions and special precautions must be followed.
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk fert ilizer blending, registration, labeling and application are
the responsibility of the individual and/or company selling the fertilizer and chemical mixture.
LIMITATIONS
Apply a minimum of 200 pounds per acre of dry fe rtilizer impregnated with TRIFLURALIN HF at the
recommended rates. Any commonly used dry fertiliz ers can be used for TRIFLURALIN HF impregnation
except straight coated ammonium nitrate and straight limestone. These materials will not absorb the herbicide.
Blends containing mixtures of these materials can be impregnated.
IMPREGNATION
Use any closed drum, belt, ribbon or other commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender. The nozzle or nozzles
used to spray the TRIFLURALIN HF on to the fertilizer should be placed to provide uniform spray coverage.
RATES
Check the crop section to determine the rate of TRIFLURALIN HF per acre. See the rate table which follows
[TRIFLURALIN HF

Exceptions: Do not fall apply TRIFLURALIN HF on sugarbeets, potatoes and direct-seeded tomatoes. Do not make
fall applications to soils that are wet, prone to prolonged periods of flooding, or where rice was grown the previous
season.
Soil Preparation: Ground may be left flat or bedded-up over winter. For bedded ground, knock beds down to
desired height before planting, moving some treated soil from beds into furrows. If soil is left over winter, exercise
care to not turn up untreated soil during spring bedding operations. Remo ve established weeds during seedbed
preparations as they will not be controlled by TRIFLURA LIN HF. If weeds become established in furrows due to
uncovering of untreated soil during bedding, destroy such weeds before planting.
Timing: In most states, apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF any time between October 15 and December 31.
In the states of MN, MT, ND and SD, apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF between September 1 and December
31.
ALFALFA—Established Alfalfa Only: (Western U.S. Only)
Apply to established alfalfa stands at a broadcast rate per acre of 1½ pints on coarse soils and 2 pints on medium
and fine soils. Use incorporation equipment that will insure thorough soil mixing with a minimum of damage to the
established alfalfa. Apply no more than 4 pints of product or 2.0 lbs. a.i. per application. Do not apply within 21 days
before harvest of forage, or 20 days before harvest of hay. Do not apply more than 8 pints of product or 4.0 lbs. a.i.
per year.
ASPARAGUS—Established—Single or split application for preemergent weed control: Follow recommended
procedures for soil preparation application and incorporat ion found near the beginning of the TRIFLURALIN HF
label. Volunteer seedling asparagus and field bindweed will be suppressed (reduced in stand and vigor) in addition
to weeds otherwise controlled by this product.
Single application —Apply in the winter or early spring after ferns are removed but before spears emerge.
Alternatively, apply after harvest in the late spring or early summer before ferning begins.
Split application—Apply at both times described in “Single Applic ation” (before harvest and after harvest), but at
reduced rate.

TRIFLURALIN HF/Eptam/EPTC Tank-Mix for Dry Beans: The TRIFLURALIN HF/Eptam/EPTC tank-mix
effectively controls henbit, black nightshade and nutsedge (nutgrass) in addition to all of the annual grasses
and broadleaf weeds listed on the TRIFLURALIN HF labe l. Follow normal procedures for soil preparation.
The TRIFLURALIN HF/Eptam/EPTC tank-mix should be ap plied from 2 days before pl anting (up to planting
in the Eastern U.S.).
Apply at a broadcast rate of 1 pint of TRIFLURALIN HF and 2½ to 3½ pints of Eptam/EPTC 7E per acre or
up to the label recommended rate for each herbicide depending on soil texture and weed problem. Use the
higher rate of Eptam/EPTC for nutsedge control. TRIFLURALIN HF at 1 pint per acre, alone or in combination,
should not be used on soils containing 5% or more organic matter. Incorporate immediately after application.
Follow normal TRIFLURALIN HF procedures for cultivation.
Caution: Read the Eptam/EPTC label before using. Observe al l cautions and limitations on labeling of all
products used in mixtures. The combination of TRIFL URALIN HF and Eptam/EPTC should not be used on
soybeans, black-eyed peas (beans), lima beans and other flatpodded beans, except Romano. Do not use the

CORN (FIELD), GRAIN SORGHUM (MILO)—Over-the-top or directed spray for preemergent weed control:
(see “`WEEDS AND GRASSES CONTROLLED” section of label).
Field Preparation—Field should be cultivated prior to application of TRIFLURALIN HF to provide loose tilth, remove
established weeds and deposit a soil cover at the base of crop plants.
Application—Make application when the crop is well established (minimum 8 inch height). Apply the recommended
rate either as an over-the-top spray or as a directed spray. Cover soil surface uniformly with spray using drop
nozzles if required. Use the lower rates when light weed pr essure is expected and higher rates when heavy weed
pressure is expected.
Apply and incorporate the following rates per acre:
Coarse soils ....................................................... ¾ to 1 pt.*
Medium soils .................................................... 1 to 1½ pts.
Fine soils .......................................................... 1½ to 2 pts.
*In corn only, apply 1 to 1½ pts. to control fall panicum and Texas panicum in the states of AL, FL, GA, NC, SC
and VA.
Incorporation—A correctly adjusted rolling cultivator or sweep-t ype cultivator can accomplish incorporation in one
pass. Carefully adjust incorporation implement to avoid direct injury to crop. A sweep-type cultivator should have 3
to 5 sweeps per row middle and be operated at 6 to 8 mph. Adjust sweeps so as to avoid exposing untreated soil.
Important: Do not use TRIFLURALIN HF on corn grown for seed. Do not make preplant or crop preemergence
applications to corn or sorghum as crop injury or loss may occur.
COTTON
Restrictions and Precautions: Plant cotton after early season adverse, wetweather conditions have passed. Crop
injury in the form of reduced stands and delayed growth will occur under adverse cool, wet-weather conditions early
in the season and may result in delayed maturity and reduced yields when TRIFLURALIN HF is used according to
these recommendations. High quality seed accompanied by a good fungicide program to control seedling diseases
in addition to other recommended cultural and chemical practices should be used to minimize crop injury from
TRIFLURALIN HF. Do not apply within 90 days of harvest. Do not apply more than 4 pints product per application.
Do not apply more than 4 pints product per year (either fall application through lay-by application or pre-plant plus
post-plant through lay-by.)
In the season following either the 1 or 2-year treatments, plant only those crops for which TRIFLURALIN HF has
been registered as a preplant treatment or injury may result.
Pre-emergence applications: Apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF before planting, at planting or
immediately after planting using the following broadcast rates per acre:

When incorporating after planting (post-plant), care must be taken not to disturb the seed.
Seedling disease may weaken cotton plants and increase the possibility of damage from TRIFLURALIN HF. To
control seedling disease, use a good fungicide program.
Post-emergence applications: Apply TRIFLURALIN HF any time up to layby, but not less than 90 days before
harvest. Direct layby applications to the soil between the rows and beneath emerged cotton plants. Use the same
rates as for a pre-emergence application.
Fall Application: For cotton grown in Alabama, Arkansas, northern Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi,
southeastern Missouri Bootheel, North Carolina, New Me xico, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas:
Apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF at a broadcast rate per acre of 2 pints on co arse and medium soils and
2½ pints on fine soils. For cotton grown in Arizona, California and Nevada: Apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN
HF at a broadcast rate per acre of 1½ pints on coarse soils; 2 pints on medium soils and 2½ pints on fine soils. For
cotton grown in states other than those listed above: Ap ply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF at a broadcast rate
per acre of 1 pint on coarse soils; 1½ pints on medium soil s; 2 pints on fine soils; 1½ pints on coarse soils with 2
to 5% organic matter; and 2 to 2½ pints on soils with 5.1 to 10% organic matter.
Fall panicum and Texas panicum control: For the control of fall panicum and Texas panicum in the states of
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carol ina and Virginia, apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF
at the broadcast rate of 2 pints per acre on both coarse and medium soils.
Plant cotton after early season adverse weather conditions have passed. Do not plant cotton deeper than 1 inch.
Crop injury in the form of delayed growth or reduced yields may occur under adverse cool, wet weather conditions
when TRIFLURALIN HF is used according to these special recommendations.
Rhizome Johnsongrass control: All Cotton Producing States except Ar izona and California. Commercially
acceptable control of rhizome Johnsongrass can be obtained with a double-rate TRIFLURALIN HF program when
applied for 2 years in a row.
Soil Preparation—Proper preparation of the soil before application is very important for satisfactory results. Use a
chisel plow or similar implement to bring rhizomes to the top of the soil. Then follow with a disc before application
to cut the rhizomes into small (2 to 3-inch) pieces. This should also destroy any emerged Johnsongrass.
Application—Choose the one application program that best fits your cultural practices:
Spring Application —Apply TRIFLURALIN HF any time in the spring before planting for 2 years in a row at a
broadcast rate per acre of 2 pints on coarse soils; 3 pints on medium soils and 4 pints on fine soils, OR
Fall Application—Apply TRIFLURALIN HF between October 15 and December 31 for 2 years in a row at the
same rates as a spring application for the control of rhizome Johnsongrass.
Incorporation—Deep incorporation is essential to good rhizome Johnsongrass control. Incorporate TRIFLURALIN
HF thoroughly with a disc set to cut 4 to 6 inches deep and operate in 2 different directions at 4 to 6 mph.
Cultivation—Some Johnsongrass plants will escape. Timely cultivations during the crop season are necessary to
obtain commercially acceptable control. Commercially acceptable control will not be obtained with only 1 year of
double-rate TRIFLURALIN HF use.
More Complete Control of Pigweed and Seedling Johnsongra ss in Cotton Grown in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida,
Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Southeastern Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and southern

POTATOES
Not recommended for use in the state of Maine: Apply TRIFLURALIN HF after planting, up to or immediately
following dragoff in the Eastern U.S. or after planting, be fore emergence on all soil textures, or after the potato
plants have fully emerged on coarse and medium soils in the Western U.S. TRIFLURALIN HF is not recommended
on muck soils.
Set incorporation equipment so that the bed and furrow will be uniformly covered with a layer of TRIFLURALIN HF.
If the layer of TRIFLURALIN HF treated soil is not uniform and the herbicide is concentrated over the bed, potato
emergence may be retarded and stem brittleness can occur. Care should be taken so that incorporation machinery
does not damage potato seed pieces or elongating sprouts. Cultivation prior to emergence may result in mechanical
injury to the elongated potato sprouts.
When applying and incorporating TRIFLURALIN HF after potato plants have fully emerged, do not completely cover
the foliage with treated soil. Likewise, do not completely cover foliage at subsequent cultivations.

Soils Containing Charcoal in Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi: Newly cleared land often contains high organic
matter (4 to 10%) and charcoal which re sult from burning debris. This charcoal and/or organic matter tends to tie
up TRIFLURALIN HF and reduce its weed control acti vity. Higher rates of TRIFLURALIN HF are therefore
necessary for satisfactory weed control. Increased rates can cause crop injury if charcoal or a high percentage of
organic matter is not present to tie up some of the TRIFLURALIN HF. In the actual windrow or burn row, where a
high level of charcoal is present, poor weed control may result even with an increased rate of TRIFLURALIN HF.

*Newly cleared land often contains high organic matter(4 to 10%) and charcoal which result from burning debris.
This charcoal and/or organic matter tends to tie up TRIFLURALIN HF and reduce its weed control activity. Higher
rates are therefore necessary for satisfactory weed control. Increased rates can cause crop injury if charcoal or a
high percentage of organic matter is not present to tie up some of the TRIFLURALIN HF. In the actual windrow or
burn row, where a high level of charcoal is present, poor weed control may result even with an increased rate.
Crop Rotation
The program for red rice control in soybeans is a 2-year program. Use the rates listed for first year application and
plant soybeans. The second year use the normal TRIFLURA LIN HF rates listed for your soil type and charcoal
level and plant only those crops for which TRIFLURALIN HF has been registered as a preplant treatment or injury
may result. Do not plant rice the second year. Rice may be planted the third year.
Precautions
Plant soybeans after early adverse weather conditions have passed. Do not plant soybeans deeper than 2 inches.
Crop injury may occur under adverse cool, wet weather co nditions early in the season when TRIFLURALIN HF is
used according to these double-rate recommendations.
Rhizome Johnsongrass Control: (Eastern United States and the State of Texas): Commercially acceptable
control of rhizome Johnsongrass can be obtained with a double-rate TRIFLURALIN HF program when applied for
2 years in a row.
Soil Preparation—Proper preparation of the soil before application is very important for satisfactory results. Use a
chisel plow or similar implement to bring rhizomes to the top of the soil. Then follow with a disc before application
to cut the rhizomes into small (2 to 3-inch) pieces. This should also destroy any emerged Johnsongrass.
Application—Choose the one application program that best fits your cultural practices.
Spring Application —Apply TRIFLURALIN HF any time in the spring before planting for 2 years in a row at a
broadcast rate per acre of 2 pints on coarse soils; 3 pints on medium soils; 4 pints on fine soils; 3 pints on coarse
soils with 2 to 5% organic matter; and 4 pints on soils with 5.1 to 10% organic matter, OR
Fall Application—Apply TRIFLURALIN HF between October 15 and December 31 for 2 years in a row at the
same rates as a spring application for the control of rhizome Johnsongrass, OR
Split Application—Apply as directed under both spring and fall applications for 2 years in a row using the following
broadcast rates per acre:
Spring and
Fall
Coarse soils . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 pt. ................. ......... 1 pt.
Medium soils . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1½ pts. ...................... 1½ pts.

Soils with 5.1 to 10%
organic matter . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2 pts. . . . . . . ............ 2 pts.
Incorporation—Deep incorporation is essential to good rhizome Johnsongrass control. Incorporate TRIFLURALIN
HF thoroughly with a disc set to cut 4 to 6 inches deep and operate in 2 different directions at 4 to 6 mph.
Cultivation—Some Johnsongrass plants will escape. Timely cultivations during the crop season are necessary to
obtain commercially acceptable control. Commercially acceptable control will not be obtained with only 1 year of
double-rate TRFLURALIN HF use.
Precautions: Plant soybeans after early season adverse weather conditions have passed. Do not plant soybeans
deeper than 2 inches. Crop injury in the form of delayed growth may occur under adverse cool, wet weather

conditions early in the season when used according to these recommendations.
In the season following either the 1 or 2-year treatmen ts, plant only those crops for which TRIFLURALIN HF has
been registered as a preplant treatment or injury may result.
Wild Cane Control: Wild Cane (Shattercane) can germinate from grea ter soil depth than most other weed seeds.
Several “`flushes” or germinating times are common in one season. Commercially acceptable control of wild cane
can be obtained with increased rates of TRIFLURALIN HF.
Land Preparation—Work your land to destroy existing grasses and weeds. Thoroughly mix crop residues into the
soil to a depth of 4 to 6 inches.
Application—Apply TRIFLURALIN HF before planting at a broadcast rate per acre of 1 pint on coarse soils; 2 pints
on medium soils; and 2½ pints on fine soils.
Incorporation—Deep incorporation is essential to good wild cane control. Incorporate (mix) TRIFLURALIN HF
thoroughly with a disc only set to cut 4 to 6 inches deep and operate in 2 different directions at 4 to 6 mph.
Cultivation—Cultivations during the crop season will also contribute to control. Precaution: Plant soybeans after
early season adverse weather conditions have passed. Do not plant soybeans deeper than 2 inches. Crop injury in
the form of delayed growth may occur under adverse cool, wet weather conditions early in the season when used
according to these recommendations.
TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin 75 Tank-Mix Preplant incorporated:
The TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/ Metribuzin 75 tank-mix effectively controls additional weeds
than would be controlled by TRIFLURALIN HF alone (see Weeds Controlled section). Follow normal procedures
for soil preparation. The TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin 75 tank-mix should be
applied from 2 weeks before planting up to planting in 10 to 40 gallons of water with any low-pressure herbicide
sprayer equipped with herbicide tips and screens no finer than 50 mesh in nozzle and in-line strainers.

Do not plant any crop other than soybeans within 4 mo nths after treatment. Follow normal TRIFLURALIN HF
procedures for incorporation and cultivation.
NOTE: In those areas of the Mid-South where cocklebur is a serious problem, an overlay of Sencor or Metribuzin
75 may be preferred to the TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin 75 tank-mix.
Special Precaution: Applied according to directions and under normal growing conditions, the TRIFLURALIN
HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin 75 tankmix will not harm the treated crop. Over-application may result
in crop injury or soil residue. Uneven application or improper soil incorporation of the TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or
TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin 75 tank-mix can result in errati c weed control or crop injury. Seeding disease, cold
weather, deep planting, excessive moisture, soil pH over 7.5, high salt concentration, or drought may weaken crop
seedlings and increase possibility of damage from th e TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin
75 tank-mix. Under these conditions, delayed crop development or reduced yields may result. Warning: Observe
all warnings and limitations on labeling of all products us ed in mixtures. Sencor may be harmful if swallowed or
inhaled. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Avoid breathing of dust or spray mist. Wash clothing thoroughly
with soap and hot water before reuse. Do not contaminate feed or food. Keep out of reach of children.
Do not use the foliage from soybeans treated with th e TRIFLURALIN HF/Sencor or TRIFLURALIN HF/Metribuzin
75 tank-mix for feed or forage. Do not contaminate any body of water nor apply to any area not specified on this
label. Do not allow sprays to drift onto adjacent desirable plants.
TRIFLURALIN HF pre-plant followed by Sencor or Metribuz in 75 as an overlay treatment for weed control in
soybeans: TRIFLURALIN HF effectively controls certain annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. See Sencor or
Metribuzin 75 label for additional weeds controlled. Apply TRIFLURALIN HF as a preplant incorporated herbicide.

As a separate operation, make a single application of Sencor or Metribuzin 75 as either a band or broadcast spray
during planting or as a separate operation after planting, but before the soybeans emerge. Do not spray Sencor or
Metribuzin 75 over the top of emerged soybeans or injury may result.
Use Directions—Follow directions on the TRIFLURALIN HF, Sencor or Metribuzin 75 labels for specific instructions
regarding each chemical.
Special Precautions —Do not use Metribuzin 75 or Sencor on Tr acy, Semmes, Altona, Vansoy or Coker 102
soybeans as these varieties are sensitive to Metribuzin 75 or Sencor and injury to the crop may result. See current
Metribuzin 75 or Sencor label for complete information on sensitive varieties.
Do not use treated vines for feed or forage.
Seed must be planted at least 1½ inches below the soil surface but not more than 2 inches before a Sencor
or Metribuzin 75 application.
Do not replant areas treated with Sencor or Metribuzin 75 to any crop other than soybeans within 4 months
after treatment.
Injury to soybeans may occur if Metribuzin 75 or Sencor is used on soils having a calcareous surface or pH of 7.5
or higher, or if used in conjunction with soil applied organic phosphate pesticides.
Important: Read the TRIFLURALIN HF, Sencor or Metribuzin 75 labels carefully before using. Note all warnings,

rate per acre of 2 to 4 pints for all soil textures. In these established plantings, apply as a directed spray to the soil
around the trees or vines and use incorporation methods no t injurious to the trees or vines. Do not apply to
vineyards within 60 days of harvest.
NOTE: If crops are planted between the trees or vines, labe l directions for those specific crops apply to the area
which is interplanted. For continued weed control in citr us trees, apply TRIFLURALIN HF 2 times a year at an
interval of approximately 4 to 6 months.
Rhizome Johnsongrass Control: (Western U.S. Only): Commercially acceptable control of rhizome Johnsongrass
can be obtained with post-plant applications in Bear ing and Non-Bearing established plantings of Vineyards,
Almond, Apricot, Grapefruit, Lemon, Nectarine, Orange, Peach, Pecan, Tangelo, Tangerines and Walnut trees with
a TRIFLURALIN HF program when applied for 2 years in a row.
Soil Preparation—Work the soil thoroughly to bring the rhizomes nearer the surface.
Application—Apply TRIFLURALIN HF at a broadcast rate per acre of 4 pints on all soil textures each year for 2
years in a row. Do not apply to vineyards within 60 days of harvest.
Incorporation—Incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF thoroughly with a disc set to cut 4 to 6 inches deep and operate 2
times at 4 to 6 mph.
Cultivation—Some Johnsongrass plants will escape. Timely cu ltivations are necessary to obtain commercially
acceptable control. Commercially acceptable control will not be obtained with only 1 year of TRIFLURALIN HF use.
Precautions: Do not use the 2-quart rate on new plantings as injury may result. Do not interplant orchards or
vineyards with other crops. If TRIFLURALIN HF-treated vi neyards and orchards are diverted to other crop uses,
plant only those crops forwhich TRIFLURALIN HF has been registered as a pre-plant treatment.
Field Bindweed Control in Vineyards, Almond, Apricot, Grapefruit, Lemon, Nectarine, Orange, Peach, Pecan,
Tangelo, Tangerine and Walnut Trees in California only: For the control of field bindweed in the state of California,
apply TRIFLURALIN HF at a broadcast rate of 4 pints pe r acre on all soil textures. TRIFLURALIN HF must be
applied in the spring with a specially designed spray blad e which applies a thin concentrated layer at a soil depth
of 4 to 6 inches. The layer of TRIFLURALIN HF prevents bindweed shoots from emerging.
Land Preparation—Destroy all weeds and grasses with soil tillag e before applying TRIFLURALIN HF. This tillage
is necessary to prevent trash from interfering with the operation of the spray blade.
Equipment—This operation requires a spray blade capable of ru nning 4 to 6 inches below the surface of the soil.
The spray blade should be equipped with nozzles located under the blade and directed so that the TRIFLURALIN
HF spray will be trapped under the soil which is flowing over the blade as it is pulled through the soil. Use a sufficient
number of nozzles with spacing to completely and un iformly apply TRIFLURALIN HF underground in a thin
horizontal layer.
[TRIFLURALIN HF
EPA REG. NO. 34704-792]
31
Application—Apply TRIFLURALIN HF in 40 to 80 gallons of water per acre. Operate the spray blade at a depth of
4 to 6 inches.
Precaution: Some soils develop cracks as they dry after rainfall or irrigation. Field bindweed may emerge if the
cracks extend through the TRIFLURALIN HF layer. Prevent or eliminate cracks by shallow discing or other tillage.
Avoid deep tillage which disturbs the subsurface layer. Cul tivation or tillage also aids the control of germinating
seeds.
WHEAT AND BARLEY
SPRING WHEAT, DURHAM AND BARLEY Postplant incorporated application for control of foxtail (pigeongrass):
Plant 2 to 3 inches deep in a seedbed of good tilth. Make TRIFLURALIN HF application after seeding but before
crop emergence. Incorporate 1 to 1½ inches deep by use of flex-tine or diamond harrows operated twice in
different directions at a minimum speed of 5 mph. Combine herbicide application and first incorporation when
possible. Both incorporations must be completed in 24 hours following application (see Incorporation Directions
section for specific instructions).
Apply and incorporate at the following broadcast rates per acre:
Coarse soils ......................... 1 pint
Medium soils ........................ 1 pint
Fine Soils .......................... 1½ pints
FALL APPLICATION—Preplant incorporated application for control of foxtail (pigeongrass): This fall application of
TRIFLURALIN HF is for crops to be planted the following spring. Fields should not have excessive trash and may
have been fallowed or pre-tilled according to local cropping practices. Initial incorporation must be made within 24
hours of application. A second incorporation must be made prior to planting to uniformly distribute treated soil and
eliminate emerged weeds. (see Incorporation Directions section for specific instructions).
Apply and incorporate at the following broadcast rates per acre:
Coarse soils ......................... 1 pint
Medium soils ........................ 1 pint
Fine soils ......................... 1½ pints
Fall Incorporation Pass—Use any of the following implements:
1. Chisel plow (3 rows of up to 18-inch sweeps on 12-inch centers or less): Sweeps must be staggered so as to
turn all soil. Operate at depth of 4 to 5 inches and speed of 4 to 6 mph.
2. Tandem disc: Operate at depth of 3 to 4 inches and speed of 4 to 6 mph.
3. Field cultivator (3 or 4 rows of sweeps with Cor S-shaped shanks spaced 7 inches or less apart): Sweeps must
be staggered so as to turn all soil. Operate at depth of 3 to 4 inches and speed of 5 mph minimum.
Spring Incorporation Pass—The disc or field cultivator may be used, but the chisel plow is not recommended. The
spring pass implement must operate at a more shallow depth than the fall pass implement.
Planting Depth—Seed should be placed at approximately 2 inches deep.
Note: The application described may result in a reduction of stand, however, a slight stand reduction usually does
not affect yield.
BARLEY, SPRING SEEDED-SPRING APPLICATION PREPLANT INCORPORAT-
ED FOR FOXTAIL (PIGEONGRASS) CONT ROL (For use in Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota): Apply
TRIFLURALIN HF as a preplant incorporated treatment prio r to planting spring seeded barley. This product may
be applied to ground that has a manageable level of crop residue or has been fallowed or pretilled. This product
must be soil-incorporated within 24 hours of application either by mechanical incorporation or at least 0.5 acre inch
of water (rainfall, irrigation). If a second incorporation is needed it should be delayed 3 to 5 days after the first
incorporation and be completed prior to planting to destro y emerged weeds and to insure even distribution of this
product in the soil surface.
Broadcast Application Rate/Acre: Apply at a rate of 1.0 pint per acre for all textures regardless of organic matter
content.
Incorporation: Recommended incorporation tools include th e chisel plow (first incorporation pass only), tandem
disc and field cultivator. Refer to “`Incorporation Directio ns” section of this label for details on operation of
incorporation equipment. Planting Directions: Barley should be seeded approximately 2 inches deep.

Precaution: Use only deep furrow or semi-deep furrow drills. Place seed below the zone of soil into which
TRIFLURALIN HF has been incorporated. Do not plant whea t directly into the zone of soil treated with
TRIFLURALIN HF as injury to the crop or a delay in its emergence and development may occur.
WINTER WHEAT—Partial Control or Suppression of Annual Brome Species (Cheatgrass, Downey Brome,
Japanese Brome, Hairy Chess) and Jointed Goatgr ass in Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska and Wyoming: Apply
TRIFLURALIN HF as a preplant incorporated treatment anytime from three (3) weeks before planting up to
immediately prior to planting.
Broadcast rates per acre:
Soil Texture TRIFLURALIN HF
Coarse ....................................................... 1-1½ pts.
Medium................................................. . .1-1½ pts.
Fine .......................................................... 1½ pts.
Use higher rate range where heavy weed populations are anticipated or where medium to high crop residues are
present.
Incorporation and Planting Directions
Incorporate with tillage equipment (flexible tine-tooth harrow or springtooth harrow such as Flex-Tyne or
Crustbuster®) that mixes the soil no more than 1-2 inches deep.
The grain drill (double disc drill or hoe drill) can serve as the incorporation method. Do not use discs, under cutters
or heavy field cultivators for incorporating. Incorporate once within 24 hours after application (see Incorporation
Directions section for specific instructions) . Use a drill that will place the seed below soil which has been
incorporated with TRIFLURALIN HF.
One pass incorporation is adequate. Where the grain drill is used as the incorporation tool, mounting a springtooth
harrow in front of the drill to aid incorporation ca n enhance performance. THE WHEAT MUST BE SEEDED
BELOW THE TRIFLURALIN HF TREATED SOIL OR CROP INJURY MAY RESULT. The wheat seed
should be placed at least 1½-2 inches deep.
Precautions:
• Crop injury in the form of delayed emergence and development result from planting wheat in direct contact with
treated soil.
• Do not use under cutters, field cultivators, chisel plows or disc as incorporation tools. Any implement that
incorporates TRIFLURALIN HF deeper than the seeded wheat will contribute to crop injury.
• Use of seeding equipment that does not place the seed below the treated soil layer will result in crop injury.
• Use of TRIFLURALIN in accordance with this label may result in some crop stand reduction but does not
normally adversely affect yield.
• Heavy rainfall prior to wheat emergence can cause soil compaction and soil crusting resulting in delayed
emergence, stand reduction, stunting and yield loss.
CONTAINER GROWN ORNAMENTALS, LANDSCAPE ORNAMENTALS, NURSERY STOCK, GROUND
COVERS, ESTABLISHED FLOWERS, ORNAMENTAL BULBS, NONBEARING FRUIT AND NUT TREES AND
NON-BEARING VINEYARDS, CHRISTMAS TREE PLANTATIONS AND UNDER PAVED SURFACES.
TRIFLURALIN HF is recommended as a preemergence treatment for control of certain annual grasses and
broadleaf weeds in container grown ornamentals, landscape ornamentals, nursery stock, ground covers,
established flowers, ornamental bulbs, non-bearing fruit and nut trees and non-bearing vineyards, Christmas tree
plantations and under paved surfaces. Apply TRIFLURALIN HF before or after planting but prior to germination of
target weeds, or immediately after cultivation. Length of weed control will vary with weed population, potting media
or soil conditions, temperature, watering regime, and other factors. Following application, user should monitor and
[TRIFLURALIN HF

observe level of weed control over time to determine when additional applications may be needed. Repeat
application should not be made sooner than 60 days after a previous application of TRIFLURALIN HF. Do not apply
over 12 pounds a.i. per acre total of TRIFLURALIN HF within a 12-month period.
TRIFLURALIN HF does not control establis hed weeds. Existing weeds should be controlled by cultivation or with
postemergence herbicides. Weed residues, prunings and tras h should be removed or thoroughly mixed into soil
prior to treatment. Soil should be in good condition and free of clods at the time of application. A single rainfall or
sprinkler irrigation of 0.5 inches or more, or flood irrigation, is requir ed to activate TRIFLURALIN HF. Optimum
weed control is obtained when TRIFLURALIN HF is activated within 3 days of application. If rainfall or irrigation has
not occurred within 3 days of application and tillage is possible, TRIFLURALIN HF may be activated using
cultivation equipment capable of uniformly mixing the herbicide into the upper 1-2 inches of soil. Failure to activate
TRIFLURALIN HF within 3 days of application may result in erratic weed control. Do not apply when wind conditions
favor drift of TRIFLURALIN HF granules from the target area. Optimum weed control will be obtained when followed
by overhead irrigation or rainfall within a few hours after surface application.
Special Use Precautions: To avoid possible injury, do not apply TRIFLURALIN HF to:
• Nursery forest or Christmas Tree seedling beds, cutting beds, or transplant beds
• Unrooted liners or cuttings that have been planted in pots for the first time
• Pots less than four inches wide
• Ground covers until they are established and well rooted
Do not apply TRIFLURALIN HF to newly transplanted ornamentals, nursery stock, ground covers, flowers, and
non-bearing fruit and nut crops and non- bearing vineyards until soil or pottin g media has been settled by packing
and irrigation or rainfall and no cracks are present or injury may occur.
Do not make preplant applications of TRIFLURALIN HF to areas where gladioli corms less than one inch in diameter
will be planted or injury may occur.
Do not apply TRIFLURALIN HF in greenhouse or other enclosed structures.
Users who wish to use TRIFLURALIN HF on plant species not recommended on this label may determine suitability
for such uses by making trial application of TRIFLURALIN HF at a recommended rate to small numbers of plants.
Prior to using TRIFLURALIN HF on a large number of plan ts, the treated plants should be observed for signs of
herbicidal injury during 30 to 60 days of normal growing conditions to determine if the treatment is non-injurious to
the target plant species. The user assu mes responsibility for any plant damage or other liability resulting from the
use of TRIFLURALIN HF on plant species not recommended on this label. TRIFLURALIN HF may be used on the
following established plant species when container grown or field grown:
TRIFLURALIN HF may be used as a preemergence herbicid e to control annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in
ornamental ground covers, trees, shrubs, roses, flower s, and nursery stock. Do not apply TRIFLURALIN HF
through any type of irrigation system for use on ornamentals.
TRIFLURALIN HF is to be mixed with water and applied as a spray before, or in the same operation as soil
incorporation. Apply in 5 to 40 gallons of water per a cre (broadcast basis) using any properly calibrated low-
pressure boom-type herbicide sprayer that will uniformly apply the spray. Pour the recommended amount of
TRIFLURALIN HF for your soil type into the spray tank during the filling operation and mix thoroughly before
spraying. Do not apply more than the recommended amount.

INCORPORATION DIRECTIONS
TRIFLURALIN HF must be soil-incorporated within 24 hours of application either by mechanical incorporation or at
least 0.5 acre inch of water (rainfall, irrigation). If a second incorporation is needed it should be delayed 3 to 5 days
after the first incorporation and be completed prior to plan ting. Spraying and incorporation should be done in the
same operation, if possible. Incorporation may be delaye d up to 4 hours after application. Variable weed control
may result from delayed incorporation if TRIFLURALIN HF is applied to a wet, warm soil surface or if the wind
velocity is 10 mph or higher.
The machinery used for incorporation should break up la rge clods and mix TRIFLURALIN HF thoroughly with the
soil. The more thoroughly the TRIFLURALIN HF is mixed with the soil, the more consistent the weed control will
be.
Apply and incorporate TRIFLURALIN HF prior to planting new nursery stock liners, ornamentals, trees and woody
shrubs, and gladioli. (Gladioli corms less than 1 inch in diameter may be injured by preplant applications of
TRIFLURALIN HF.) TRIFLURALIN HF may also be applied to established plantings by using a directed spray to
the soil between the rows and beneath the plants.
Incorporation before planting (preplant):
Thorough incorporation may be achieved with the following: PTO-driven equipment (tillers, cultivators, hoes) set
to cut 2 to 3 inches deep with rotors spaced to provide a clean sweep of the soil; double disc (or double disc with
spiketooth harrow in tandem) set to cut 3 to 4 inches deep and operated in two different directions (cross disced)
at 4 to 6 mph; mulch treader and other similar disc-type implements set to cut 3 to 4 inches deep and operated
twice at 5 to 8 mph; rolling cultivators set to cut 2 to 4 inches deep and operated twice at 6 to 8 mph; or a bed
conditioner (Do-All) set to cut 2 to 4 inches deep and operated at 4 to 6 mph.
Incorporation after planting (post-plant): Incorporation may be achieved arou nd established plants by using:
PTO-driven equipment (tillers, cultivators, hoes) set to cut 2 to 3 inches deep with rotors spaced to provide a clean
sweep of the soil, or rolling cultivators set to cut 2 to 4 inches deep and operated twice at 6 to 8 mph. When
incorporating TRIFLURALIN HF in transplants, new liners, or established plants, the implement should be adjusted
so that treated soil is thrown toward and around the plants in the row.
Clean cultivated area to be treated before application since TRIFLURALIN HF will not control established weeds.
Shallow incorporation with implements set to cut less than 2 inches deep may result in erratic weed control. Do not
use spiketooth or springtooth harrows alone for incorporation.
Surface Application and Water Incorporation to Ornamental Ground Cover Plantings:
Add TRIFLURALIN HF to clean water in the spray tank duri ng the filling operation. Agitate thoroughly prior to
spraying. Apply in 5 to 40 gallons of water per acre using any properly calibrated low pressure herbicide sprayer
that will uniformly apply the spray mixture. A one-half-inch rain or its equivalent in sprinkler irrigation must be
received within 24 hours or poor weed control will result.
Application Rates-Ground Cover Only
Apply 1 gallon of TRIFLURALIN HF per acre or 3 ounces per 1,000 sq. ft. of ground cover area.

daffodil (narcissus), hyacinth and tulip. Apply TRIFLURALIN HF to the soil surface 2-4 weeds after planting, but
prior to the emergence of annual weeds. TRIFLURALIN HF may also be applied following bulb emergence. For
fall planted bulbs, apply TRIFLURALIN HF again in late winter or early spring to weed-free soil surfaces.
CHRISTMAS TREE PLANTATIONS
Apply TRIFLURALIN HF to established plantings of field grow n Christmas tree species listed on this label. Do not
apply to seedbeds or seedling transplant beds. Apply only to established plantings. Established plants are defined
as those that have been transplanted into their final growing location for a sufficient period of time to allow the soil
to be firmly settled around the roots from packing and rainfall or irrigation.

*Not registered for use in California
Under Paved Surfaces
Directions for Use and Site Preparation: Apply 3 to 4 gall ons of TRIFLURALIN HF per acre or 9 to 12 fl. oz. per
1,000 sq. ft. TRIFLURALIN HF should be used only where the area to be treated has been prepared according to
good construction practices. If rhizomes, stolons, tubers or other vegetative plant parts are present in the site, they
should be removed by scalping with a grader blade to a depth sufficient to insure their complete removal.
Applications should be made only when final grade is es tablished or after additions of base rock. Do not remove
soils following TRIFLURALIN HF application and do not appl y this herbicide to areas where asphalt is to be laid
directly on top of soil.
Paving should follow TRIFLURALIN HF as soon as possible.
Applications Directions (Large Areas): Apply TRIFLURALIN HF in sufficient water to insure thorough wetting of the
soil surface or penetration of the spray solution through the base rock layer. A minimum of 150 gallons per acre is
recommended. Apply with any sprayer that will apply the spray uniformly. Add the recommended amount of
herbicide to clean water in the spray tank during the filling operation. Agitate before spraying.
Small Areas: For treating small areas, a tank type hand sprayer or sprinkling can may be used. Before application
determine the amount of water and TRIFLURALIN HF necess ary to uniformly cover the area to be treated. Shake

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
PROHIBITIONS—Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal. Open dumping is prohibited.
Do not reuse empty container. Do not store under conditions which might adversely affect the container or its
ability to function properly.
PESTICIDE STORAGE—Avoid freezing. Do not store below temperature of (40°F). If frozen, poor weed
control may result. Store in safe manner. Store in original container only. Keep container tightly closed when
not in use. Reduce stacking height where local conditions can affect package strength. Personnel should use
clothing and equipment consistent with good pesticide handling.
PESTICIDE DISPOSAL—Pesticide wastes are toxic. Improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixture, or
rinsate is a violation of Federal law. If these wastes cannot be disposed of by use according to label
instructions, contact your State Pesticide or Environmental Control Agency, or the Hazardous Waste
representative at the nearest EPA Regional Office for guidance.
CONTAINER HANDLING:
Nonrefillable container. Do not reuse this container to hold materials other than pesticides or dilute pesticides
(rinsate). After emptying and cleaning, it may be allowable to temporarily hold rinsate or other pesticide -related
materials in the container. Contact your state regulatory agency to determine allowable practices in your state.
Once cleaned, some agricultural plastic pesticide containers can be taken to a container collection site or
picked up for recycling. To find the nearest site, contact your chemical dealer or manufacturer, or contact The
Agricultural Container Recycling Council (ACRC) at www.acrecycle.org. If not recycled, then puncture and
dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or incineration, or if allowed by state and local authorities, by burning. If burned,
stay out of smoke.
