|
||
is also acceptable. The label referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under
|
||
FIFRA, as amended, is acceptable.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then please be
|
||
aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide Fungicide and Rodenticide
|
||
Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is false or misleading, the product
|
||
would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40

organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray
|
||
drift.
|
||
GENERAL INFORMATION
|
||
Observe all use precautions and limitations on the labels of each
|
||
product used in tank-mixtures. Tank-mixtures are permitted only in
|
||
those states where the tank-mix partner is registered.
|
||
Me-Too-Lachlor IV is a herbicide recommended as a pre-plant
|
||
surface-applied, pre-plant incorporated, or pre-emergence treatment
|
||
in water or fluid fertilizer for control of most annual grasses and certain
|
||
broadleaf weeds in Field corn and Popcorn.
|
||
Note: Do not use in nurseries, turf, or landscape plantings. Do not
|
||
apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil
|
||
containing this product to non-target areas. To prevent off-site
|
||
movement due to runoff or wind erosion:
|
||
1) Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are
|
||
favorable for wind erosion. Under these conditions, the soil surface
|
||
should first be settled by rainfall or irrigation.
|
||
2) Do not apply to impervious substrates such as paved or highly
|
||
compacted surfaces.
|
||
3) Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of
|
||
treated fields to treat non-target crops unless at least one-half inch
|
||
of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation.
|
||
Where directions on this label specify, this product in tank-mixture
|
||
with Atrazine formulations may be used. Follow the rates,
|
||
recommendations, and limitations on the Atrazine product label.
|
||
Note: Certain states may have established rate limitations for
|
||
Atrazine within specific geographical areas. Consult your state
|
||
lead pesticide control agency for additional information. It is a
|
||
violation of this label to deviate from state use regulations.
|
||
If this product is incorporated, any supplemental tillage before planting
|
||
must not exceed the depth of incorporation.
|
||
Dry weather following pre-emergence application of this product or a
|
||
tank-mixture may reduce effectiveness. Cultivate if weeds develop.
|
||
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control
|
||
can either mean erratic control from good to poor, or consistent
|
||
control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for
|
||
commercial weed control.
|
||
Use Precautions: Injury may occur following the use of this product
|
||
under abnormally high soil moisture conditions during early
|
||
development of the crop. Do not use on Peat or Muck soils. Do not
|
||
graze or feed forage from treated areas for 30 days following
|
||
application.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
This Product Alone: Mix this product with water or fluid fertilizer and apply as
|
||
a spray. Fill the spray tank one-half to three-quarters full with water or fluid
|
||
fertilizer, add the proper amount of this product, then add the rest of the water
|
||
or fluid fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during mixing and application to
|
||
maintain a uniform emulsion. Tank-Mixtures: Fill the spray tank one-fourth full
|
||
with water, and start agitation; add 2,4-D, Atrazine, Banvel ®, Linuron,
|
||
Marksman®, Prowl®, Simazine or Atrazine + Simazine, and allow it to become
|
||
dispersed; then add this product, then add Gramoxone ® Extra, Landmaster®
|
||
BW, or Glyphosate if these products are being used; and finally the rest of the
|
||
water. For tank-mixtures with Atrazine, Banvel, Linuron, Marksman, Prowl*,
|
||
Simazine or Atrazine + Simazine, fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of the
|
||
water as carrier, except in the Atrazine post-emergence and the Banvel post-
|
||
emergence tank-mixes. For tank-mixtures with Atrazine, see additional mixing
|
||
instructions on the Atrazine label. For each mixture, check compatibility with fluid
|
||
fertilizer, as described in Appendix A, before mixing in spray tank. For all tank-
|
||
mixtures, agitate during mixing and application to maintain a uniform
|
||
suspension.
|
||
*See Special Mixing Instructions for tank-mixtures with Atrazine or Simazine
|
||
+ Prowl under the appropriate tank-mixture section. For directions on how to
|
||
conduct a compatibility test, see Appendix A.

|
||
HERBICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
METOLACHLOR GROUP 15 HERBICIDE
|
||
For resistance management, this product is a Group 15 mode of
|
||
action herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants
|
||
naturally resistant to this product and other Group 15 mode of action
|
||
herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed population
|
||
if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate
|
||
resistance management strategies should be followed.
|
||
ME-TOO-LACHLOR IV PAGE 2 of 9
|
||
To delay herbicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
• Rotate the use of this product or other Group 15 mode of action
|
||
herbicides within a growing season sequence or among growing
|
||
seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds
|
||
in a field.
|
||
• Use tank-mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use
|
||
is permitted; where information on resistance in target weed species
|
||
is available, use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that will
|
||
control the target weed(s) equally as well as the more resistance-
|
||
prone partner. Consult your local extension service or certified crop
|
||
advisor if you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently
|
||
less prone to resistance. • Adopt an integrated weed-management
|
||
program for herbicide use that includes scouting and uses historical
|
||
information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that
|
||
considers tillage (or other mechanical control methods), cultural
|
||
(e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application
|
||
method and timing to favor the crop and not the weeds), biological
|
||
(weedcompetitive crops or varieties) and other management
|
||
practices. • Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed
|
||
populations for early signs of resistance development. Indicators of
|
||
possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed
|
||
species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied,
|
||
especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a spreading
|
||
patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; (3)
|
||
surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same
|
||
species. If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed production
|
||
in the affected area by an alternative herbicide from a different group
|
||
or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage. Prevent
|
||
movement of resistant weed seeds to other fields by cleaning
|
||
harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and
|
||
planting clean seed.
|
||
• 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

Within rate ranges in the rate tables and elsewhere on this label, use
|
||
the lower rate on soils relatively Coarse-textured or low in organic
|
||
matter; use the higher rate on soils relatively Fine-textured or high in
|
||
organic matter.
|
||
Note: This product may be applied pre-emergence alone, or in
|
||
combination with tank-mix partners specified on this label, following
|
||
pre-plant incorporated herbicides when used according to their label
|
||
recommendations, provided that such use is not prohibited on the
|
||
respective labels.
|
||
Thoroughly clean sprayer or other application device before using.
|
||
Dispose of cleaning solution in a responsible manner. Do not use a
|
||
sprayer or applicator contaminated with any other materials, or crop
|
||
damage or clogging of the application device may result.
|
||
2) APPLICATION PROCEDURES Application Timing
|
||
This product alone or in some tank-mixtures with other labeled
|
||
herbicides may be applied for weed control in Field corn and Popcorn
|
||
at various times. Refer to the given crop section of the label to
|
||
determine if application timings listed below are recommended.
|
||
A) Pre-plant Surface-Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage
|
||
systems only, this product alone and some tank-mixtures of this
|
||
product may be applied up to 45 days before planting. Use only
|
||
split applications for treatments made 30 to 45 days before
|
||
planting, with two-thirds the recommended broadcast rate for the
|
||
crop and soil texture applied initially and the remaining one-third
|
||
at planting. Treatments less than 30 days before planting may be
|
||
made either as a split or a single application. If weeds are present
|
||
at the time of treatment, apply in a tank-mixture combination with
|
||
a contact herbicide (for example, Gramoxone Extra or
|
||
Glyphosate). Observe directions for use, use precautions, and
|
||
restrictions on the label of the contact herbicide. To the extent
|
||
possible, do not move treated soil out of the row or move untreated
|
||
soil to the surface during planting, or weed control will be
|
||
diminished.
|
||
B) Pre-plant Incorporated: Apply this product to the soil and
|
||
incorporate into the top 2 inches of soil within 14 days before
|
||
planting, using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling cultivator, or similar
|
||
implement capable of providing uniform 2 inch incorporation. Use
|
||
a pre-plant incorporated application if furrow irrigation is used or
|
||
when a period of dry weather after application is expected. If Field
|
||
corn and Popcorn will be planted on beds, apply and incorporate
|
||
this product after bed formation, unless specified otherwise.
|
||
C) Pre-emergence: Apply this product during planting (behind the
|
||
planter) or after planting, but before weeds or Field corn and
|
||
Popcorn emerge.
|
||
3) Special Application Procedures
|
||
A) CA Only (Field corn and Popcorn)—Pre-plant Incorporated:
|
||
Broadcast this product alone or with tank-mix partners listed on
|
||
this label to the soil and thoroughly incorporate with a disk or
|
||
similar implement set to till 4 to 6 inches deep. For more thorough
|
||
incorporation, till the soil in 2 different directions (cross-till). Field
|
||
corn and Popcorn may be planted on flat surface or on beds.
|
||
Caution should be used when forming the beds that only soil from
|
||
this product’s treated zone is used (i.e., untreated soil should not
|
||
be brought to soil surface). If the application is made to preformed
|
||
beds, incorporate this product with a tillage implement set to till 2
|
||
to 4 inches deep. Care should be taken during tilling to keep the
|
||
tilled (this product treated) soil on the beds.
|
||
B) Pre-emergence: Apply this product after planting. Water with
|
||
sprinkler or flood irrigation within 7 to 10 days.
|
||
C) Fall Application (Only in IA, MN, ND, SD, WI, and portions of
|
||
NE and IL - see specific instructions for timing of application
|
||
and other information): Do not apply to frozen ground. Use on
|
||
Medium and Fine soils with greater than 2.5% organic matter that
|
||
will be planted to Field corn or Popcorn the next Spring. Ground
|
||
may be tilled before or after application. Do not exceed a 2 to 3
|
||
inch incorporation depth if tilled after treatment. Note: If a Spring
|
||
application is made, the total rate of the Fall plus Spring
|
||
applications must not exceed the maximum total rate for the
|
||
specific crop, or illegal residues may result.
|
||
D) Ground Application: Apply this product alone or in tankmixtures
|
||
by ground equipment in a minimum of 10 gallons of spray mixture
|
||
per acre, unless otherwise specified.
|
||
Use sprayers that provide accurate and uniform application. For
|
||
tank-mixtures of this product with wettable powder or dry flowable
|
||
formulations, screens and strainers should be no finer than 50
|
||
mesh. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean water immediately after
|
||
use.

*See “GENERAL INFORMATION”section. Control of these weeds
|
||
can be erratic, due partially to variable weather conditions.
|
||
Control may be improved by following these suggested
|
||
procedures:
|
||
A) Use 2 to 2.67 pints per acre or the pre-plant surface-applied rates
|
||
for this product alone or in tank-mixture, if allowed, when making
|
||
pre-plant incorporated or preemergence applications.
|
||
B) Thoroughly till moist soil to destroy germinating and emerged
|
||
weeds. If this product is to be applied pre-plant incorporated, this
|
||
tillage may be used to incorporate this product if uniform 2 inch
|
||
incorporation is achieved as recommended under “APPLICATION
|
||
PROCEDURES”.
|
||
C) Plant Field corn and Popcorn into moist soil immediately after
|
||
tillage. If this product is to be used pre-emergence, apply at
|
||
planting or immediately after planting.
|
||
D) If available, sprinkler irrigate within 2 days after application. Apply
|
||
one-half to 1 inch of water. Use lower water volume (one-half inch)
|
||
on Coarse-textured soils and higher volume (1 inch) on Fine-
|
||
textured soils . Also, refer to the section on “ CENTER PIVOT
|
||
IRRIGATION APPLICATION” for this method of applying this
|
||
product.
|
||
E) If irrigation is not possible and rain does not occur within 2 days
|
||
after planting and application, weed control may be decreased.
|
||
Under these conditions, a uniform, shallow cultivation is
|
||
recommended as soon as weeds emerge.
|
||
**For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 2 pints per acre
|
||
and apply pre-emergence.
|
||
***For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 2 pints per acre
|
||
and apply through a center pivot irrigation system.

TILLAGE SYSTEMS
|
||
In minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems where Field corn and
|
||
Popcorn is planted directly into a cover crop, stale seedbed,
|
||
established sod, or previous crop residues, this product applied in
|
||
combination with Atrazine will kill most emerged small annual weeds.
|
||
Apply this product + Atrazine before, during, or after planting, but
|
||
before Field corn and Popcorn emerges, according to the rates in
|
||
Table 1.
|
||
Where heavy crop residues exist, add 0.8 to 1.6 pints per acre of an
|
||
appropriately labeled 3.8 pounds a.i. per gallons of 2,4-D amine (such
|
||
as Weedar
|
||
® 64, Weedar 64A, DMA-4 Herbicide, or Formula 40) to
|
||
the spray tank last and apply in a minimum of 25 gallons of carrier
|
||
per acre.
|
||
As carriers, nitrogen solutions and complete liquid fertilizers, applied
|
||
before Corn emergence, enhance burndown of existing weeds, and
|
||
therefore, are recommended instead of water. Add X-77 surfactant at
|
||
1 to 2 quarts per 100 gallons of diluted spray, or another appropriate
|
||
surfactant at its recommended rate, or add crop oil concentrate plus
|
||
28% liquid nitrogen (or equivalent). Apply before weeds exceed 3
|
||
inches in height. If Alfalfa is present, add Banvel to the spray mixture
|
||
at 0.33 to 0.5 pint per acre and apply before Alfalfa exceeds 6 inches
|
||
in height.
|
||
For fields with existing sod grasses (e.g., Bromegrass, Orchardgrass,
|
||
Rye, or Timothy), when existing weeds exceed 3 inches in height or
|
||
when very dry conditions exist, add Gramoxone Extra at the rate of
|
||
2.5 pints per acre in place of or in addition to 2,4-D, as indicated
|
||
above. Do not apply Gramoxone Extra in suspension-type liquid
|
||
fertilizer. Observe all directions for use, use precautions, and
|
||
limitations on the respective product labels when applying these
|
||
products in tank-mix combination.

matter. For fields with existing vegetation exceeding 3 inches in
|
||
height or when very dry conditions exist, add Gramoxone Extra at its
|
||
standard rate. This product + Marksman may be applied post-
|
||
emergence to Field corn less than 3 inches tall and before weedy
|
||
grasses exceed the 2 leaf stage. As carriers, nitrogen solutions and
|
||
complete liquid fertilizers, applied before Corn emergence, enhance
|
||
burndown of existing weeds. Do not apply Gramoxone Extra in

APPENDICES
|
||
APPENDIX A: COMPATIBILITY TEST
|
||
Since liquid fertilizers can vary, even within the same analysis, always
|
||
check compatibility with herbicide(s) each time before use . Be
|
||
especially careful when using complete suspension or fluid
|
||
fertilizers, as serious compatibility problems are more likely to occur.
|
||
Commercial application equipment may improve compatibility in
|
||
some instances. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25
|
||
gallons per acre. For other spray volumes, make appropriate
|
||
changes in the ingredients. Check compatibility using this procedure:
|
||
1. Add 1 pint of fertilizer to each of 2 one-quart jars with tight lids.
|
||
2. To one of the jars, add one-quarter teaspoon or 1.2 milliliters of a
|
||
compatibility agent approved for this use, such as Compex or
|
||
Unite (one-quarter tsp. is equivalent to 2 pWVJDOV
|
||
spray). Shake or stir gently to mix.
|
||
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more
|
||
than one herbicide is used, add them separately with dry
|
||
herbicides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable concentrates
|
||
last. After each addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix.
|
||
The appropriate amount of herbicides for this test follows:
|
||
Dry herbicides:For each pound to be applied per acre, add 1.5 level
|
||
teaspoons to each jar.
|
||
Liquid herbicides: For each pint to be applied per acre, add one-
|
||
half teaspoon or 2.5 milliliters to each jar.
|
||
Note: For this product in tank-mixtures with Atrazine + Simazine, use
|
||
one-third to one-half the amount of Atrazine specified above and
|
||
the remainder as Simazine, depending on whether the 1:2 or 1:1
|
||
ratio of Atrazine to Simazine is to be applied.
|
||
4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert
|
||
each jar 10 times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15 minutes and
|
||
then look for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily
|
||
film on the jar, or other signs of incompatibility. Determine if the
|
||
compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by comparing
|
||
the 2 jars. If either mixture separates, but can be remixed readily,
|
||
the mixture can be sprayed as long as good agitation is used. If
|
||
the mixtures are incompatible, test the following methods of
|
||
improving compatibility: (A) slurry the dry herbicide(s) in water
|
||
before addition, or (B) add one-half of the compatibility agent to
|
||
the fertilizer and the other one-half to the emulsifiable concentrate
|
||
or flowable herbicide before addition to the mixture. If
|
||
incompatibility is still observed, do not use the mixture.
|
||
APPENDIX B: LOW CARRIER APPLICATION For Broadcast
|
||
Ground Application Only
|
||
Use sprayers, such as Ag-Chem RoGator
|
||
®, Hagie, John Deere Hi-
|
||
Cycle™, Melroe Spra-Coupe, Tyler Patriot™, or Willmar Air Ride ®,
|
||
that provide accurate and uniform application. Only water may be
|
||
used as a carrier. Screens in suction and in-line strainers should be
|
||
50 mesh. Manufacturers may require that tip screens as fine as 100
|
||
mesh be used with some nozzles. Use a pump with capacity to: (1)
|
||
maintain up to 35 to 40 psi at the nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient
|
||
agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension. Use a minimum of 5
|
||
gallons of spray mixture per acre. Maximum recommended sprayer
|
||
speed is 15 mph. Rinse sprayer thoroughly with clean water
|
||
immediately after each use.
|
||
Note: Low pressure nozzles are recommended to reduce drift and
|
||
increase application accuracy. Care should be taken when using
|
||
automatic rate controlling devices to spray the material within the
|
||
rated working pressure and flow ranges of the nozzles selected.
|
||
Nozzle screens should be used when recommended by the
|
||
manufacturer. All nozzles should be placed on 20 inch centers, except
|
||
flooding types which should be placed on 40 inch centers. When flat
|
||
fan-type nozzles are used, angles of 80° or 110° are recommended.
|
||
Always read and follow the manufacturer’s directions for optimum
|
||
setup and performance of their nozzles or tips.
|
||
APPENDIX C: AERIAL APPLICATION
|
||
Apply this product in water alone or in tank-mixtures with Atrazine, or
|
||
Linuron in a minimum total volume of 2 gallons per acre by aircraft.
|
||
This product may also be applied by air in combination with Prowl.
|
||
Avoid application under conditions where uniform coverage cannot
|
||
be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur. To assure that
|
||
spray will not adversely affect adjacent sensitive non-target plants,
|
||
apply this product alone or this product + Atrazine by aircraft at a
|
||
minimum upwind distance of 400 feet from sensitive plants, or apply
|
||
this product + Linuron at a minimum upwind distance of 300 feet from
|
||
sensitive plants. Avoid application to humans or animals. Flagmen
|
||
and loaders should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged
|
||
contact with skin.
|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
GROUND BOOM APPLICATIONS:
|
||
• User must only apply with the release height recommended by the
|
||
manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop
|
||
canopy.
|
||
• Applicators are required to select the nozzles and pressure that
|
||
deliver medium or coarser droplets (ASABE S572).
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the
|
||
application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
BOOMLESS GROUND APPLICATIONS:
|
||
• Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure tha
|
||
t
|
||
deliver medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.3) for all
|
||
applications.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the
|
||
application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
AERIAL APPLICATIONS:
|
||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the
|
||
ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is
|
||
necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
• Applicators are required to select the nozzle and pressure tha t
|
||
deliver medium or coarser droplets (ASABE S641).
|
||
• If the wind speed is 10 miles per hour or less, applicators must use
|
||
one-half swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the
|
||
field. When the wind speed is between 11 to 15 miles per hour,
|
||
applicators must use three-fourths swath displacement upwind at
|
||
the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the
|
||
application site. If the wind speed is greater than 10 mph, the boom
|
||
length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraf
|
||
t
|
||
and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise,
|
||
the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixedwing
|
||
aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
|
||
• 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 dr ift, the pote ntial for drift will be
|
||
greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable
|
||
environmental conditions.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||
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. Pressure - Use the
|
||
lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the
|
||
target spray volume and droplet size. Spray Nozzle - Use a spray
|
||
nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using
|
||
nozzles designed to reduce drift.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for
|
||
setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should
|
||
be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop
|
||
and have minimal bounce.
|
||
ME-TOO-LACHLOR IV PAGE 10 of 9
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
555SP-0321asteriskPending.indd 14 3/29/2021 1:53:22 PM
|
||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature
|
||
inversions 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.
|
||
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.
|
||
BOOMLESS GROUND APPLICATIONS
|
||
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the
|
||
potential for spray drift.
|
||
HANDHELD TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS
|
||
Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
|
||
APPENDIX D: CENTER PIVOT IRRIGATION APPLICATION
|
||
This product alone in tank-mixture with other herbicides on this label,
|
||
which are registered for center pivot application, may be applied in
|
||
irrigation water pre-emergence (after planting, but before weeds or
|
||
crop emerge) at rates recommended on this label. This product also
|
||
may be applied post-emergence to the Field corn crop or Popcorn
|
||
crop and pre-emergence to weeds in Field corn or Popcorn where
|
||
post-emergence applications are allowed on this label. Follow all
|
||
restrictions (height, timing, rate, etc.) to avoid illegal residues. Apply
|
||
this product only through a center pivot irrigation system. 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 non-uniform distribution of treated water. If you have
|
||
questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension
|
||
specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. Do not
|
||
connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) 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 responsible
|
||
for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person,
|
||
shall shut down the system and make the necessary adjustments
|
||
should the need arise.
|
||
Operating Instructions
|
||
1. 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.
|
||
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional,
|
||
automatic, quick-closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid
|
||
back toward the injection pump.
|
||
3. 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.
|
||
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to
|
||
automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the
|
||
water pump motor stops.
|
||
5. 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.
|
||
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive
|
||
displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump or piston
|
||
pump), effectively designed and constructed of materials that are
|
||
compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a
|
||
system interlock.
|
||
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area
|
||
intended for treatment.
|
||
8. Prepare a mixture with a minimum of 1 part of water to 1 part
|
||
herbicide(s) and inject this mixture into the center pivot system.
|
||
Injecting a larger volume of more dilute mixture per hour will
|
||
usually provide more accurate calibration of metering equipment.
|
||
Maintain sufficient agitation to keep the herbicide in suspension.
|
||
9. Meter into irrigation water during entire period of water
|
||
application.
|
||
10.Apply in one-half to 1 inch of water. Use the lower water volume
|
||
(one-half inch) on Coarse-textured soils and the higher volume
|
||
(1 inch) on Fine-textured soils . More than 1 inch of water at
|
||
application may reduce weed control by moving the herbicide
|
||
below the effective zone in the soil. Use Precautions: for center
|
||
pivot applications: Where sprinkler distribution patterns do not
|
||
overlap sufficiently, unacceptable weed control may result.
|
||
Where sprinkler distribution patterns overlap excessively, crop
|
||
injury may result.
|
||
APPENDIX E: DRY BULK GRANULAR FERTILIZERS

Absorptive materials should be added only after the herbicide has
|
||
been thoroughly blended into the fertilizer mixture. Best application
|
||
results will be obtained by using a granule of six-thirtieth particle size
|
||
or of a size similar to that of the fertilizer material being used.
|
||
Generally, less than 2% by weight of absorptive material will be
|

injury. Non-uniform application may also result in unsatisfactory weed
|
||
control. In areas where conventional tillage is practiced, a shallow
|
||
incorporation of the mixture into the soil may improve weed control.

|
||
not planned, i.e., reduced tillage situations or in some conventional
|
||
till situations, make applications approximately 30 days before
