( 4 t J L.( GENERAL INFORMATION Entry into treated fields is not permitted without protective clothing sprays have dried. untiV~ RESOLVE may be applied in no-till, minimum tillage, or conventional tillage soybean production. Apply RESOLVE either preplant surface-applied (in no-till c:. -< or minimum tillage), preplant incorporated, or preemergence. Apply RESOLVE up ~ to two weeks prior to planting soybeans. Refer to specific directions un,br VQ the APPLICATION DIRECTIONS section. After RESOLVE is applied, some ~ susceptible weeds _rge, growth stops, and the weeds either die or are Dot Q competitive with the crop. < The weed killing activity of RESOLVE involves herbicide uptake by weed roots and rapid translocation to the growing points. Therefore, adequate soil moisture is important for optimum RESOLVE activity. When adequate soil moisture is present, RESOLVE will provide residual control of susceptible germinating weeds. Occasionally, internode shortening and/or temporary yellowing of soybean plants may occur following RESOLVE applications. This wiil not affect soybean yields. Replanting: Ii replanting is necessary _n a field previously treated with RESOLVE, the field may be replanted to soybeans. Rework the soil no deeper. than the treated zone. DO NOT apply a second treatment of RESOLVE. V {Z.f<. - wt £i)6..i> MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Fill the spray tank one-half to three-qarters full with clean water. While' agitating add the required amount of product and then fill the remainder of the tank with water. Maintain agitation while spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture. When RESOLVE is tank mixed with Gramoxone SuperIor Roundup2, add RESOLVE to the tank first, then add Gramoxone Super or Roundup. When Gramoxone Super is j included in a tank mixture, add 8 ounces of non-ionic surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mixture as the las ingredient in the tank. To avoid injury to sensitive crops, spray equipment used for RESOLVE applications must be drained and thoroughly cleaned with water before being used to apply other products.

) APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS RESOLVE provides effective weed control in conservation tillage systems designed to meet conservation compliance requirements. RESOLVE can be applied as an early preplant, preplant: incorporated, or preemergence treatment in soybeans. It caa also be applied in conventional, minimum t:illage and nO-'ill production systems. The applicacion method of choice will depend on t:he anticipated weed spectrum and the preference of the applicat:or. If weeds have emeged, see inst:ructions under NO-TILL OR REDUCED TILLAGE section. NOTE: See instructions under US! lATE for applications made 15 to 30 days prior to planting and application to soils containing greater that 4\ organic matter. RESOLVE controls weeds by uptake by weed roots, and translocation to the growing points Where it stops weed growth. Adequate soil moisture is required for optimum activity of RESOLVE. For surface applications. rainfall or overhead irrigation is necessary to move RESOLVE into the weed germination zone. The amount of rainfall or irrigation required following application depends on existing soil moisture, soil texture and organic matter content. Sufficient water t~ moisten the soil to a depth of 2 inches is normally adequate. If adequate moisture is not received within 7 days after a surface-applied treatment, then a cultivation is recommended to control escaped weeds. When adequate moisture is received after dry conditions, RESOLVE will provide residual control of susceptible germinating weeds; activity on established weeds will depend on the weed species and the location of its root system in the soil. In ridge-till plantings, RESOLVE may be applied early preplant or at soybean ~ planting. If the herbicide is banded over the row, cultivation will be required for weed control be~een the beds. If cultivation is not possible or if weed pressure is heavy, apply RESOLVE in a broadcast application. Use proportionally less RESOLVE per acre in a band versus a broadcast application. If rainfall does not occur within 7 days of application, a rotary hoe incorporation will enhance weed control. See PREEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS and PREPLANT INCORPORATED APPLICATIONS for further information. SURFACE APPLICATIONS HADE BEFORE PLANTING Apply RESOLVE up to ~o weeks prior to planting soybeans in minimum t:illage or no- tillage systelllS. If sufficient rain does not occur before planting to activate RESOLVE, shallow incorpo!"'1tion before planting will enhance weed control. PREEKERGENCE APPLICATIONS Apply RESOLVE during planting (behind the planter), or after planting but before crop emergence. ·10· 11/91 )

( ( PRE PLANT INCORPORATED APPLICATIONS RESOLVE may be applied following land preparation and should be tl-.oroughly incorporated to a depth of 1 to 2 inches. Application may be made up to 14 days prior to planting (early preplant). Incorporate prior to soybean planting and within 7 days of application. Mechanical incorporation can be achieved by the following: (a) Disk harrow set to cut 3 to 4 inches deep and operated at 4 to 6 mph with the second pass at an angle to the first. (b) PTO-driven equipaent (tillers. cultivators. hoes) set to cut 2-3 inches deep and operated one time at 4 mph or less. (c) Rolling cultivator set to cut 2 to 4 inches deep and operated two times at 6 to 8 mph. Use only on coarse textured soils. (d) Field cultivator with 3 to 4 rows of sweeps (Do not use chisel points). spaced at intervals of 7 inches or less and staggered so that no soil is left unturned, E~t to cut 3 inches deep, and operated two times at more than 5 mph with the second pass made at an angle to the first. (e) LELY-Roterra 5 ~et and operated according to the manufacturer's directions to thoroughly incorporated RESOLVE to d depth of 1 to 2 inches. (f) Do-All set and operated according to the manufacturer's directions to thoroughly incorporate R:SOLVE to a depth of 1 to 2 inches. If soybeans are planted on beds, apply and incorporate after bed formati,6n using PTO-driven equipment or a rolling cultivator. For optimum weed contr,61, RESOLVE should be maintained in the surface 1-2 inches of the finished bed. Aj)j) .... D SLELY·Roterra is a trademark of Lely. ·11- 11/91

( ( NO-TiLL OR REDUCED TILLAGE: RESOLVE is effective in controlling weeds in conservation tillage production systems. Apply RESOLVE treatments up to 45 days pdor to planting (early preplant) but before crop emergence. To ensure thorough coverage, use a minimum of 20 gallons of water per acre. Use higher gallonage for fields with dense vegetation or heavy crop residues. Adjust the boom height to ensure proper coverage of weed foliage (according to the manufactures recommendation). The nozzle spacing on the boom should be 20 inches. Use only standard flat-fan nozzle tips. Use ground equipment only. RESOLVE will control emerged problem weeda such as velvetleaf, smarcweed, common cocklebur, and pigweeds. The weed size should not exceed 3- for velvetleaf and smarcweed, and 8" for cocklebur and pigweeds. Add surfactant to the spray mixture at the rate of I qt./lOO gal. AND a nitrogen based fertilizer (such as 28%N, 32%N or lO-34-0) at the rate of 1-2 qt./acre for optimum activity. Ammonium sulfate (spray gL·ade) may be substituted for liquid fertilizer at the rate of 4 lbs. per acre. If other vegetation is present (not controlled by RESOLVE), apply paraquat or Roundup in combination with RESOLVE. Refer to the respective labels for rates, methods of application, proper timing, weeds controlled, restrictions, and precautions. Use ground equipment only. NOTE: Adjust planters to ensure adequate seed coverage. -12- 11/91 I 1-1 .-

; PRECAUTIONS If soybeans are furrow irrigated, till the soil prior to planting winter wheat or barley. The beds should be broken up and the soil mixed with tillage equipment set to cut 4-6 inches deep. Use of RESOLVE herbicide in accordance with label directions is expected to result in normal growth of rotational crops in most sitaations; however, various environmental and agronomic factors make it impossible to eliminate all risks associated with the use of this product and , therefore, rotational crop injury is always possible. OeP Only rotational crops harvested at maturity may be used for feed or food. In the event of a crop loss due to weather, soybeans can be replanted. DO NOT work the soil deeper than 2 inches. There should be an interval of at least 85 days between an application of RESOLVE and soybean harvest. DO NOT graze or feed treated soybean forage, hay or straw to livestock. DO NOT apply products containing chlorimuron ethyl (Classic 6, Canopy6, Gemini 6 , ~ Lorox Plus 6 , PREVIEy6, etc.) or imazaquin (SCEPTER-, SQUADRON·, or TaI-SeEPT·, C SCEPTER· O.T.·, or SCEPTER· 70DG) or products containing imazethapyr (RESOLVE, !f PURSUIT-, PURSUIT· PLUS, or PASSPORt8) the same year as RESOLVE or inj ury to follow crops may occur. . >£.( 10.
