RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
EPTC GROUP 8 HERBICIDE
For resistance management, this product is a Group 8 mode of action herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants
naturally resistant to this product and other Group 8 mode of ac tion 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.
To delay herbicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
xRotate the use of this product or other Group 8 herbicides within a growing season sequence or among growing seasons with
different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
xUse tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use is permitted; where information on resistance in target we ed
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.
xAdopt 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 (weed-competitive crops or
varieties) and other management practices.
xScout 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.
xIf a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment with this product, discontinue use of this product, and switch t o
another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available.
xContact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance-management and/or integrated
weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes.
xFor further information or to report suspected resistance, contact Drexel Chemical Company representatives at (901) 774-4370.

MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
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
• 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.
BOOM HEIGHT
Ground Boom Application:
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
Boom-less Ground Application:
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce 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 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 (un der low wind
conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Av oid 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.
Ground Boom Applications
• Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 ft. above the ground or crop canopy.
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Boom-less Ground Applications
• Applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1) for all applications.
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Page 6 of 17
APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
Do not apply this product in a manner that allows spray or dust to drift from the application target site and/or cause harm to
humans, animals, or other non-target sites.
Carriers
Liquids Either water or fluid fertilizers such as solutions, slurries or suspensions may be used as liquid carriers. If fluid fertilizers
are used, a physical compatibility with these must be done before combining in the spray tank. See Appendix I for details of th e
compatibility testing procedure. Even if this product is physically compatible with a fluid fertilizer, constant agitation is necessary to
maintain a uniform mixture during application.
Dry Bulk Fertilizer This product may be impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer and applied as the fertilizer is spread. Bulk fertilizer
impregnated with this product should be applied immediately, not stored.
It is recommended that all bulk containers be tightly covered while the product is being transported and applied to reduce
probability of loss of this product via volatilization.
When application and incorporation are done in separate operations, impregnated fertilizer must be incorporated on the same day
as applied. When separate operations delay incorporation, applications must be made on a soil surface dry to one-half inch deep
and free from dew and incidental moisture.
See APPENDIX II and consult your local dealer for details including what fertilizers are compatible.
ADDING TO SPRAY TANK
If this product is used alone:
Add the specified amount to a clean (thoroughly rinsed and decontaminated) spray tank before it is half filled so that addition of the
remaining water or fluid fertilizer carrier can aid in the thorough agitation and mixing of the spray solution.
If a tank mixture is used:
See specific direction on this label for order of mixing and agitation.
VOLUME
Apply in 10 to 50 gallons of water or fluid fertilizers per acre using a properly calibrated sprayer having good agitation.
PRESSURE
Use 20 to 40 psi to ensure good distribution in the spray pattern.
SOIL MOISTURE AND TILTH
Improper incorporation or poor tilth such as large clods may result in erratic or unsatisfactory
weed control. The soil should be dry enough to permit good soil mixing or incorporation.
Any application of this product that is not immediately incorporated in the same operation must be made to a soil surface dry to at
least one-half inch deep and free from dew and incidental moisture.
Page 7 of 17
INCORPORATION TIMING
Application and incorporation should be done in the same operation when possible.
Applications in water or fluid fertilizers must not have more than a 4-hour delay between application and incorporation. When
application and incorporation are separate operations in the semi-arid areas of Eastern Washington, Eastern Oregon and Idaho,
this product must be incorporated the same day as applied. See moisture statement. This product impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer
must be incorporated on the same day as application. See moisture statement.
INCORPORATION EQUIPMENT AND METHODS
This product must be incorporated into the soil to prevent loss of the herbicide. Thorough mixing is necessary.
Power driven cultivation equipment:
Soil should have previous primary tillage.
Ground speed must be adjusted with PTO driven cultivation tools to insure thorough
incorporation. Set horizontal action tine equipment to cut 4 to 6 inches deep.
Set vertical action tine equipment to cut 3 to 4 inches deep.
Tandem disc:
Can be used on all soil types.
Set disc to cut 4 to 6 inches deep.
Operate disc at 4 to 6 mph.
Follow disc by a harrow or leveling device slightly wider than that of the disc.
Two passes in different directions will improve incorporation.
On the second pass, the disc should be operated no deeper than on the first pass.
If deep germinating weeds are present, a second incorporation will improve control or suppression. Weeds which fall into this
category are: Seedling Johnsongrass, Quackgrass, and Nutsedge.
Field cultivator:
Use on light soils in good tilth.
Equip with 3 to 4 rows of sweeps spaced at 7 inches or less and staggered from row to row to leave no soil unturned or
undisturbed.
Set the field cultivator to cut 4 to 6 inches deep.
Operate at 5 mph or more.
Follow by a harrow or leveling device. Chisel plows or point should not be used.
Two passes in different directions will improve incorporation.
If deep germinating weeds are present, use a tandem disc for the first pass. Weeds which fall into this category are: Seedling
Johnsongrass, Quackgrass, and Nutsedge.
Sub-surface Injection (for Annual grasses, Broadleaves, and Nutsedge):
Southeastern U.S. on coarse textured
soils only. Light infestations only.
Adjust dosage proportionately depending on row spacing and width to be treated.
Center Pivot Sprinkler (for Annual grasses and Broadleaves only):
This product can be applied and incorporated before or immediately after planting before corn or weeds have emerged at the
rates specified for the specific weed.
Application and incorporation should be done after last tillage operation and before
weeds germinate. Meter the herbicide during entire irrigation period.
Apply in one-half to three-fourths inches of water. Excess water can result in the movement of this product from weed
germination area and result in poor control.
Apply only through center pivot sprinkler irrigation systems. Do not apply through any other type of system.
In the semi-arid areas of Eastern Washington, Eastern Oregon, and Idaho, this product may be surface applied immediately
after planting. See soil moisture statement.
This product can then be incorporated using one-half to three-fourths inch of water within 36 hours following application.
The application and incorporation must be done within 5 days after the last tillage operation since poor results will occur if weeds have
germinated.
Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of treated water.
Questions about calibration should be directed to your State Extension Service specialist, equipment manufacturers, or other
experts.
Page 8 of 17
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 the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
USE PRECAUTIONS
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.
The system must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump effectively designed and constructed of
materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
Application of more than label specified quantities or irrigation water per acre may result in decreased product performance by
removing the chemical from the zone of effectiveness.
Apply during low or no wind conditions to avoid drift.
Insure system connection or fittings do not leak and nozzles provide uniform distribution.
Lines containing the product must not be dismantled and drained.
Greater accuracy in calibration and distribution is achieved by injecting a larger volume of a more dilute slurry per hour.
For example:
For this example only, the operator should calibrate the injection pump to deliver the herbicide mix into the system at 25 gallons per
hour or 0.4gallons per minute.
Planting
Planting should occur as soon as possible after application and always within 2 weeks
after treatment. Plant seed to a maximum depth of 2 inches.
Avoid moving or shaping soil after incorporation since this can remove this product from the row and result in a loss of weed
control.
Cultivation
Should weeds develop, a shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing will generally result in better weed control. A shallow cultivation is
less than one-half the depth of incorporation.
Table 1
This product at the rate of 4.75 pts./acre is to be applied to 110 acres. 110 acres x 4.75 pints = 522.5 pints.
522.5 pints divided by 8 pints/gallon = 65.3 gallons of this product that must be added to mixing tank.
If mixing tank size is 750 gallons and if the sprinkler takes 30 hours to apply one-half inch of water, the injection rate is 750
gallons divided by 30 gallons/hour equals 25 gallons/hour or 0.4 gallons/minute.

TANK MIX COMBINATIONS
It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable
restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank-mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive
directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank-mixture.
Atrazine and Simazine Herbicide Combinations
For control of additional weeds and increased control of labeled broadleaf weeds, Atrazine or Simazine may be tank mixed and
applied pre-plant incorporated with specified use rates of this product.
Do not apply Atrazine or Simazine through any irrigation system.
Atrazine combination may be impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer. See APPENDIX II and consult your local dealer for details
including what fertilizers are compatible.
As an alternative, Atrazine at specified rates may be applied preemergence to the soil surface following a preplant incorporated
treatment of this products recommended rates.
If a preemergence application of Atrazine is used, consult the directions on the Atrazine label.
A preemergence application of Atrazine may require a rotary hoeing or shallow cultivation if rainfall or sprinkler irrigation has not
occurred within 10 days of the surface application.
With the combination of Atrazine, the potential hazard of Atrazine residues affecting certain crops the following year is reduced
because a lower rate of Atrazine can be used.
Use Precautions For Atrazine and Simazine
Follow all the use precautions and warnings that appear on the Atrazine and Simazine labels and supplemental literature. Make
only one application per crop.
After a treatment including Atrazine or Simazine, do not plant any crop except Corn until the following year or injury may occur.
Do not plant Alfalfa where more than 1.2 pounds of actual Atrazine was used the previous year (2.4 pints of 4L).
When Simazine is used in a tank mix, the soil should be thoroughly tilled after harvest. This Fall or Spring tillage will help to
minimize possible injury to Spring seeded rotational crops regardless of the rate of Simazine used.
Do not apply any tank mixes with Simazine in the High Plains and Intermountain areas of the West where rainfall is sparse and
erratic or where irrigation is required. Included in this are central and western Kansas, western Nebraska, western Oklahoma, and
the Panhandle of Texas.
Injury may occur to Soybeans planted in north central and northwest Iowa, and south central and southwest Minnesota, northeast
Nebraska, southeast South Dakota, and other areas in the year following applications of Simazine on soils having a calcareous
surface layer. Do not plant Sugar beets, Tobacco, vegetables including Dry beans, Spring seed small grains, or small seeded
legumes and Grasses the year after an application of Simazine or injury may occur.
CARRIERS
Liquids: The tank mix combinations may be applied using the same liquid carriers as this product used alone. If fluid fertilizers are
used, a physical compatibility with these must be done before combining in the spray tank. See Appendix I for details of the
compatibility testing procedure. Even if the tank mix is physically compatible with a fluid fertilizer, constant agitation is necessary to
maintain a uniform mixture during application.
Dry bulk fertilizer:Tank mixes with Atrazine may be impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer. Simazine is not labeled for dry bulk fertilizer
impregnation. Follow all directions and precautions listed under this product applied alone on impregnated dry bulk fertilizer. (See
Application Directions).
ADDING TO SPRAY TANK
It is recommended that the compatibility of any tank mix combination be tested on a small scale, such as a jar test, before actual
tank mixing. See Appendix I for details on the procedure for such a test.
Fill a thoroughly rinsed and decontaminated spray tank two-thirds full of clean water.
Start and continue moderate agitation throughout mixing. Excessive agitation may cause the Atrazine or Simazine to settle out
and set up in the spray tank.
All return lines to the spray tank must discharge below liquid level. Mix and disperse wettable powders first, followed by flowable
products, and then this product.
For some combinations, premixing wettable powders in a little water in a pail or bucket before adding them to the spray tank will
improve the compatibility of the final mixture.
Premix the Atrazine or Simazine individually in proper order listed above making sure they are thoroughly wetted and dispersed in the
tank before adding this product.
Add this product to the tank that is two-thirds full of water already mixed with the approved tank mix products and continue
filling tank. The tank mix combinations should not be left in the spray tank for prolonged periods. Batches should be mixed
and applied the same day.
VOLUME
Apply all tank mixes in 20 to 50 gallons of liquid per acre.
PRESSURE
Use 20 to 40 psi to ensure good distribution in the spray pattern.

APPENDIX I
Procedure for Testing the Compatibility of This Product with Fluid Fertilizers and Tank Mix Combinations
The following procedure is suggested for determining whether or not this product may be combined with a specific fluid fertilizer or
tank mix herbicide for spray tank application.
Materials Required
1. This Product
2. Fluid fertilizer and tank mix herbicides.
3. Adjuvant for spray tank mix combinations: Compex®,M I X®,U n i t e®, or equivalent. The adjuvant which provides the best
emulsification depends on the specific fertilizer and herbicide underconsideration.
4. Two one-quart, wide mouth glass jars with lid or stopper.
5. Measuring spoons, a 25 mL pipette or graduated cylinder provides more accurate measurement.
6. Measuring cup, 8 ounces (237 mL).
Procedure
Pour a pint or about 473 mL of the fluid fertilizer or water into each of the quart jars.
Add adjuvant to one of the jars and mix. Two-milliliter (mL) or two-fifths of a teaspoon of adjuvant added to 1 pint of fluid fertilizer
or water will equal 3 pints of adjuvant per 100 gallons of fluid fertilizer or water.
If a tank mix is being tested, premix the wettable powders in one-eighth cup of water prior to addition to the pint of fluid fertilizer or
water.
Add this product to both jars. See Table 7 for rate to use.
Close both jars with lid or stopper and mix the contents by turning the jars upside
down ten times. Inspect the surface and body of the mixtures:
Immediately after completing the jar inversions.
After allowing the jars to stand quietly for 30 minutes.
And then again after turning the jars upside down 10 times after the 30-minute wait.
Evaluation
If a uniform mixture cannot be made, the mixture should not be used. If either mixture remains uniform for 30 minutes, the
combination may be used.
Should either mixture separate after 30 minutes, but readily remixes uniformly with ten jar inversion, the mixture can be used if
adequate agitation is maintained in the tank.
If the mixture with adjuvant is satisfactory, but the one without adjuvant is not, be sure to use the adjuvant in the spray tank.
If adjuvant is needed, add it first at a rate of 3 pints per 100 gallons of fluid fertilizer or water.
Foaming can be minimized by using moderate agitation.
If nondispersible oil, sludge, or clumps of solids form in the mixture, the combination should not be used.

Do not combine this product plus Atrazine 4L with 0-20-0 or 0-46-0.
Uniform impregnation of the herbicides on dry bulk fertilizer particles and uniform application in the field are necessary to assure
good results.
A minimum of 200 and a maximum of 700 pounds of approved impregnated ingredients from Tables 8 and 9 must be
applied per acre. Use a closed rotary drum mixer or similar type of closed blender equipped with suitable spray equipment.
The spray nozzle should be positioned inside of the mixer to provide uniform spray coverage of the tumbling fertilizer and provide
a uniform fine spray pattern.
Tank mix combinations may be added separately or mixed in the proposed use ratio in a uniform slurry for joint spray
impregnation.
Physical properties of fertilizers vary in liquid absorptive capacity. When absorptivity is sufficient, simple spray impregnation of the
fertilizer with the herbicides provides a satisfactory, dry mixture.
When the absorptive capacity is not adequate, use of a drying agent is required to provide dry, free-flowing mixtures.
Drying agent for spinning-disc applicators
Micro-Cel® E calcium silicate powder
Drying agents for pneumatic applicators
Micro-Cel E calcium silicate powder Agsorb® 16/30 RVM-MS granular clay Celatom® MP-79
Drying agents should be added separately and uniformly to the previously impregnated herbicide-fertilizer mixture to insure that
the mixture is free-flowing. Generally the following amounts are sufficient:
Micro-Cel E calcium silicate powder less than 2% by weight
Agsorb 16/30 RVM-MS granular clay less than 5% by weight
Celatom MP-79 less than 5% by weight
The amount of this product and Atrazine actually required in the manufacture of individual fertilizer mixtures should be determined
carefully for each production operation (see Table 10). This is necessary to ensure that the amount of herbicide actually contained
in the mixture applied to the soil represents the correct use rate.
