|
||
The operator of the property shall include in their Pesticide Use Records the name of the person(s) that handled the product for each
|
||
application. All applicable directions, restrictions, and precautions on the EPA-registered label are to be followed.
|
||
This labeling must be in the possession of the user at the time of herbicide application.
|
||
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.
|
||
|

|
||
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 user’s 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 product’s 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.

Impregnation on Dry Bulk Fertilizers
|
||
Consult your local dealer for more details.
|
||
This product alone and tank mix combination with Atrazine may be impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer.
|
||
Precaution: This product alone and in combination tank mixes must not be impregnated on ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate
|
||
or sodium nitrate fertilizers. Such mixtures may cause explosion and fire.
|
||
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk fertilizer blending, registration, labeling, and application are the responsibility of
|
||
the individual and/or company selling the herbicide and fertilizer mixtures.

|
||
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.
