Product Information
E-99 herbicide is intended for selective control of many broadleaf weeds in certain crops, including, cereal
grains (wheat, barley, millet, oats and rye), corn (field corn, popcorn and sweet corn), fallow land and crop
stubble, sorghum (grain and forage sorghum), and soybeans (preplant burndown application only), forests,
rangeland and established grass pastures including Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) acres, non-
cropland, grasses grown for seed or sod, and ornamental turf.
Apply E-99 as a water spray during warm weather when weeds or woody plants are actively growing.
Application under drought conditions will often give poor results. Generally, the lower dosages specified on
this label will be satisfactory for young, succulent growth of susceptible weed species. For less susceptible
species and under conditions where control is more difficult, use higher specified rates. Deep-rooted
perennial weeds such as Canada thistle and field bindweed and many woody plants usually require repeated
applications for satisfactory control. Consult your State Agricultural Experiment stations or Extension Service
Weed Specialists for recommendations from this label that best fit local conditions.
Page 4 of 18
Precautions
Do not apply less than 2 gallons total spray volume per acre.
Excessive residues of 2,4-D in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination and plant growth.
Restrictions
Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
Resistance Management Recommendations
E-99 is a Group 4 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to E-99 or
other Group 4 herbicides. Weed species with acquired resistance to Group 4 may eventually dominate the
weed population if Group 4 herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field or in successive years as the
primary method of control for targeted species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those
species by E-99 or other Group 4 herbicides.
To delay herbicide resistance consider:
x Avoiding the consecutive use of E-99 or other target site of action Group 4 herbicides that have a
similar target site of action, on the same weed species.
x Using tank-mixtures or premixes with herbicides from different target site of action Groups as long as
the involved products are all registered for the same use, have different sites of action, and are both
effective at the tank mix or prepack rate on the weed(s) of concern.
x Basing herbicide use on a comprehensive IPM program.
x Monitoring treated weed populations for loss of field efficacy.
x Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or Winfield Solutions, LLC
representative for herbicide resistance management and/or integrated weed management
recommendations for specific crops and resistant weed biotypes.
Spray Drift Management
A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, relative
humidity) and method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) can influence pesticide drift.
The applicator must evaluate all factors and make appropriate adjustments when applying this product. Use
low spray pressure to minimize drift.
Droplet Size
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D as the sole active ingredient, or when applying sprays that contain
2,4-D mixed with active ingredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a Coarse or coarser
spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 385 microns or greater for spinning atomizer
nozzles.
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with other active ingredients that require a Medium or more
fine spray, apply only as a Medium or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 300
microns or greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.
Wind Speed
Do not apply at wind speeds greater than 15 mph. Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-
target deposition and there are not sensitive areas (including, but not limited to, residential areas, bodies of
water, known habitat for nontarget species, nontarget crops) within 250 feet downwind. If applying a Medium
spray, leave one swath unsprayed at the downwind edge of the treated field.
Temperature Inversions
If applying at wind speeds less than 3 mph, the applicator must determine if: a) conditions of temperature
inversion exist, or b) stable atmospheric conditions exist at or below nozzle height. Do not make applications
into areas of temperature inversions or stable atmospheric conditions.
Page 5 of 18
Susceptible Plants
Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that might be
damaged or crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are not
limited to, cotton, okra, flowers, fruit trees, grapes (in growing stage), fruit trees (foliage), soybeans (vegetative
stage), ornamentals, sunflowers, tomatoes, beans, and other vegetables, or tobacco. Small amounts of spray
drift that may not be visible may injure susceptible broadleaf plants.
Other State and Local Requirements
Applicators must follow all state and local pesticide drift requirements regarding application of 2,4-D
herbicides. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
Equipment
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate
carriers or surrogates.
Aerial Application
The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade diameter.
Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height
greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. This
requirement does not apply to forestry or rights-of-way applications.
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must
compensate for this by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
Ground Boom Application
Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.
2,4-D esters may volatilize during conditions of low humidity and high temperatures. Do not apply during
conditions of low humidity and high temperatures.
Mixing Instructions
E-99 in water forms an emulsion that tends to separate unless the mixture is kept agitated. Fill the spray tank
about half full with water, add the required amount of E-99 with agitation, and then add water to bring the
mixture to the required volume. E-99 should be mixed with water prior to addition of any adjuvant such as
wetting agent, additional surfactant or emulsifiable oil (crop oil concentrate).
Note: Addition of an adjuvant such as a wetting agent, additional surfactant or emulsifiable oil to the spray
mixture may increase effectiveness on weeds, but also may reduce selectivity in crops resulting in crop
damage.
When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Winfield Solutions, LLC recommends the use of a Council of
Producers & Distributors of Agrotechnology certified adjuvant.
Tank Mixing: When tank mixing, read and follow the label of each tank mix product used for precautionary
statements, directions for use, weeds controlled, and geographic and other restrictions. Use in accordance
with the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions. No label dosages should be exceeded. This
product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing.
Mixing with Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizer
This product may be combined with liquid nitrogen fertilizer suitable for foliar application to accomplish
broadleaf weed control and fertilization of corn, small grains or pastures in a single operation. Use E-99 in
accordance with directions for these crops provided in this label. Use liquid fertilizer at rates recommended by
the supplier or Extension Service Specialist. Test for mixing compatibility by mixing spray ingredients in
correct proportions in a clear glass jar before mixing in spray tank. A compatibility aid such as Unite or
Page 6 of 18
Compex may be needed in some situations. Compatibility is best with liquid fertilizer solutions containing only
nitrogen. Mixing with N-P-K solutions may not be satisfactory, even with the addition of a compatibility aid.
Pre-mixing E-99 with 1 to 4 parts water may help in situations when mixing difficulty occurs.
Fill the tank about half full with the liquid fertilizer, then add the required amount of E-99 with agitation..
Maintain agitation and complete filling the tank with liquid fertilizer. Apply immediately and continue agitation
in spray tank during application. Do not store the spray mixture. Application during very cold weather (near
freezing) is not advisable.
Sprayer Clean-Out
To avoid injury to desirable plants, equipment used to apply this product should be thoroughly cleaned before
re-use or applying other chemicals.
1. Rinse and flush application equipment thoroughly after use at least three times with water. Dispose of all
rinse water by application to treatment area or apply to non-cropland area away from water supplies.
2. During the second rinse, add 1 qt of household ammonia for every 25 gallons of water. Circulate the
solution through the entire system so that all internal surfaces are contacted (15-20 min). Let the solution
stand for several hours, preferably overnight.
3. Flush the solution out of the spray tank through the boom.
4. Rinse the system twice with clean water, recirculating and draining each time.
5. Remove nozzles and screens and clean separately.
6. If equipment is to be used to apply another pesticide or agricultural chemical to a 2,4-D susceptible crop,
additional steps may be required to remove all traces of 2,4-D, including cleaning of disassembled parts
and replacement of hoses or other fittings that may contain absorbed 2,4-D.
Application Instructions
Spray Volume: Apply with calibrated air or ground equipment using sufficient spray volume to provide
adequate coverage of target weeds or as otherwise directed in specific use directions. For broadcast
application, apply the specified rate of this product in a spray volume of 2 or more gallons per acre by air and
10 or more gallons per acre for ground equipment. Where states have regulations, that specify minimum
spray volumes, they should be observed. In general, spray volume should be increased as crop canopy,
height and weed density increase in order to obtain adequate spray coverage.
Application Rates: Generally, lower rates in specified rate ranges will be satisfactory for more sensitive
weeds species, when weeds are small, and when environmental conditions are favorable for rapid growth.
Use higher rates in the specified rate range for less sensitive species and under less
favorable growing conditions. For crop uses, do not mix with emulsifiable oil or other adjuvants unless
specified on this label. Deep-rooted perennial weeds such as Canada thistle and field bindweed and many
woody plants usually require repeated applications for effective control.
Spot Treatments
To prevent misapplication, spot treatments should be applied with a calibrated boom or with hand sprayers
using a fixed spray volume per 1,000 sq ft as indicated below.
Hand-Held Sprayers: Hand-held sprayers may be used for spot applications of E-99. Care should be taken
to apply the spray uniformly and at a rate equivalent to a broadcast application. Application rates in the table
are based on the application rate for an area of 1,000 sq ft. Mix the amount of E-99 (fl oz or ml)
corresponding to the desired broadcast rate in 1 to 3 gallons of spray. To calculate the amount of E-99
required for larger areas, multiply the table value (fl oz or ml) by the thousands of sq ft to be treated. An area
of 1000 sq ft is approximately 10.5 X 10.5 yards (strides) in size.

use only lowest rate in rate range.
Preharvest
(Field corn and popcorn only)
up to 2 Apply after corn is in hard dough (or denting) stage.
Do not make preharvest applications to sweet corn.
Precautions:
• Do not make preplant or preemergence applications to light sandy soils.
• Corn hybrids vary in tolerance to 2,4-D. Some are easily injured. Apply only to varieties known to be
tolerant to 2,4-D. Consult the seed company or your Agricultural Experiment Station or Extension Service
Weed Specialist for this information.
• Note: Corn treated with 2,4-D may exhibit stem brittleness for 8 10 days following application. During this
period, the crop is more susceptible to stem breakage from cultivation or wind.
Restrictions (Field Corn and Popcorn):
• Preharvest interval: Do not harvest for grain or use treated crop as fodder within 7 days after application.
• Do not make more than one preplant or preemergence application, more than one postemergence
application, and more than one preharvest application per use season.
• Do not apply more than 4.0 pt/acre of E-99 (3.0 lb of acid equivalent) per use season.

Type of Weeds
E-99
(pt/acre) Specific Use Directions
Annual broadleaf weeds 2/3 to 1 1/3 Use a lower rate in the rate range when weeds are
small (2 to 3 inches tall) and actively growing.
Use a higher in the rate range when weeds are
larger and/or growing conditions are less favorable.
Biennial broadleaf weeds 1 1/3 to 2 2/3 Apply when musk thistles or other biennial species
are in the seedling to rosette stage and before
development of flower stalks.
Use lower rates in the spring during the rosette stage
and the highest rate in the fall or when flower stalks
have developed.
Perennial broadleaf weeds 1 1/3 to 2 2/3 Apply when perennial weeds are in bud or bloom
stage and actively growing.
Do not disturb treated areas for at least 2 weeks
after application or until top growth is dead.
Wild garlic and onion in crop
stubble
2 2/3 Apply to new regrowth of wild garlic or onion that
occurs in the fall after harvest of other crops.
Precaution:
For best weed control results, do not cultivate for at least two weeks after application or until top growth is
dead.
Restrictions:
• Preharvest interval: Do not cut forage for hay within 7 days of application.
• Do not re-apply within 30 days of a previous application.
• Do not make more than 2 applications per season.
• Do not apply more than 5 1/3 pt/acre of E-99 (2.0 lb of acid equivalent) per use season.
Planting in Treated Areas
Crops on this Label and Labels of other 2,4-D Products: Within 29 days after an application of this
product, plant only those crops listed on this or other registered 2,4-D labels. Follow more specific limitations,
if any, provided in directions for specific crops. Labeled crops may be at risk of crop injury or loss if planted
soon after application, especially during the first 14 days. Degradation factors described below should be
considered in weighing this risk.
All Other Crops: Those not listed on any 2,4-D product label may be planted 30 or more days after
application without concern for illegal residues in the planted crop. However, under certain conditions, there
may be a risk of injury to these crops. Degradation factors described below should be considered in weighing
this risk. Under average conditions, any crop may be planted without risk of injury if at least 90 days of soil
temperatures above freezing have elapsed since application.
Degradation Factors: When planting into treated areas, the risk of crop injury is less if lower rates of product
were applied and conditions following application have included warm, moist soil conditions that favor rapid
breakdown of 2,4-D. Risk is greater if higher rates of product were applied and soil temperatures have been
Page 11 of 18
cold and/or soils have been excessively wet or dry in the days following application. Consult your local
agricultural extension service for information about susceptible crops and risk of crop injury prior to planting
into treated fields in your area.
Precautions for Planting Cotton: Following application of E-99 and following a minimum of 1” rainfall or
irrigation in a 24 hr. period, wait an interval of 30 days prior to planting cotton. Failure to observe these
precautions may result in crop injury.

Soybeans (Preplant Burndown Application Only)
(Not for Use in California)
Application Timing
E-99
(pt/acre) Specific Use Directions
Preplant (Burndown) 1/2 to 2/3 Apply not less than 7 days before planting soybeans.
See Use Precautions and Restrictions below.
2/3 to 1 1/3 Apply not less than 15 days before planting soybeans.
See Use Precautions and Restrictions below.
Directions: Use E-99 to control emerged broadleaf weeds or existing cover crops. For best results,
apply when weeds are small and actively growing. Use the higher rate in the respective rate range for
larger weeds and when perennials are present. Compat ible crop oil concentrates, agricultural
surfactants and fluid fertilizers approved for use on growing crops may be added to spray mixtures to
increase the herbicidal effectiveness on certain weeds. Read and follow all directions and precautions
on this label and on the label of each product added to the spray mixture.
Precautions:
• Important Notice: Unacceptable injury to soybeans planted in treated fields may occur. Whether or not
soybean injury occurs and the extent of such injury will depend on weather (temperature and rainfall) from
herbicide application until soybean emergence and agronomic factors such as the amount of weed
Page 12 of 18
vegetation and previous crop residue present at the time of application. Injury is more likely under cool rainy
conditions and where there is less weed vegetation and crop residue present.
• Do not disturb treated soil through tillage between application and planting of soybeans.
• Do not use on sandy soils with less than 1.0% organic matter.
• In treated fields, plant soybean seed as deep as practical, but not less than 1.0 inch deep. Adjust the
planter, if necessary, to ensure that planted seed is adequately covered.
• Do not apply E-99 as a preplant application in soybeans unless you are prepared to accept the
results of soybean injury, including possible stand loss and/or yield reduction.
Restrictions:
xDo not make more than one application per season regardless of the application rate used.
xDuring the growing season following application, do not replant treated fields with crops other than those
labeled for use with E-99.
