|
||
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT
|
||
Aerial Applications:
|
||
x Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater application
|
||
height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
x Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser drople t size in accordance with the most current version of the
|
||
American Society of Agricultural & Biological Engineers Standard 641 (ASABE S641) for all applications.
|
||
x If the windspeed is 10 miles per hour or less, applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of
|
||
the field. When the windspeed is between 11-15 miles per hour, applicators must use ¾ swath displacement upwind at the
|
||
downwind edge of the field.
|
||
x Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the windspeed is greater than 10 mph, the boom
|
||
length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
|
||
Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed- wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor
|
||
diameter for helicopters.

||
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
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet
|
||
size.
|
||
x Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to
|
||
reduce drift.
|
||
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
x For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
x 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.
|
||
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
|
||
x 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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
USE RESTRICTIONS
|
||
x Do not apply OD 70 Herbicide to crops undersown with grass or legume species.
|
||
x Do not make more than a total of one application of OD 70 Herbicide per 365 days.
|
||
x Do not apply more than 6.85 fl oz/acre of OD 70 Herbicide per 365 days.
|
||
x Do not apply in combination with Dicamba containing products as grass control will be reduced.
|
||
x DO NOT apply OD 70 Herbicide through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
x Do not drain or rinse equipment near desirable vegetation.
|
||
x Do not apply to winter, spring or durum wheat after jointing.
|
||
x Do not harvest or graze wheat forage within 7 days after application.
|
||
x Do not harvest wheat for hay within 30 days after application.
|
||
x Do not harvest wheat for grain or straw within 60 days after application in Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, or South Dakota;
|
||
and within 70 days in all other states.
|
||
|
||
USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||
x Avoid spray drift from treated areas. Refer to the Spray Drift Management section of this label for additional information.
|
||
x OD 70 Herbicide is rainfast 1 hour after application to most weed species. Rainfall within 1 hour may result in reduced weed
|
||
control.
|
||
|
||
6
|
||
x Non-target plants may be adversely affected if the pesticide is al lowed to drift from areas of application. To prevent damage to
|
||
crops and other desirable plants, read and follow all directions and precautions on this label before using.
|
||
x Environmental conditions which support vigorous growth of crop and weeds also result in highest herbicidal activity. Following
|
||
application, symptoms of herbicidal activity may develop within several days. Speed of action depends on environmental
|
||
conditions and increases with increasing temperature and moisture.
|
||
x Applications of OD 70 Herbicide in winter, spring or durum wheat in combination with some EC herbicides may cause crop
|
||
response (see tankmix section).
|
||
x Applications during low temperatures (32 Fº or lower), high tem peratures (90 Fº or greater), or to a crop under drought stress
|
||
can cause crop injury.
|
||
|
||
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
x Weed infestations should be treated before they become competitive with the crop. Make applications to actively growing
|
||
weeds. Thorough coverage of weeds is necessary to obtain good weed control. Weed control may be reduced when weeds
|
||
are under stress due to severe weather conditions, drought, very cold temperatures, etc.
|
||
x Properly calibrate ground or aerial (fixed wing or helicopter) application equipment to apply OD 70 Herbicide postemergence
|
||
as a foliar spray. Use of nozzles and spray pressure that deliver medium to coarse spray droplets as indicated in the nozzle
|
||
manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASABE Standard S-572 for optimum spray coverage and canopy penetration.
|
||
x Avoid uneven spray distribution, skips, overlaps, and spray drift.
|
||
|
||
Aerial Application
|
||
Calibrate the spray equipment prior to use. OD 70 Herbicide should be applied in a minimum of 5 gallons of water per broadcast acre.
|
||
To get uniform spray coverage, use nozzles and pressure that deliver medium to coarse spray droplets as indicated in nozzle
|
||
manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASABE standard S-572. DO NOT use raindrop nozzles.
|
||
Aerial applications with this product should be made at a maximum height of 10 feet above the crop with low drift nozzles. Avoid
|
||
application under conditions where uniform coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur.
|
||
See the Spray Drift Management section of this label for additional information on proper application of OD 70 Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
Ground Application
|
||
Apply OD 70 Herbicide broadcast in 10 or more gallons of water per acre.
|
||
To obtain uniform spray coverage, use nozzles and pressure that deliver medium to coarse spray droplets as indicated in nozzle
|
||
manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASABE standard S-572. Use screens that are 50 mesh or larger. See the Spray Drift
|
||
Management section of this label for additional information on proper application of OD 70 Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
For resistance management, OD 70 Herbicide is a Group 2 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally
|
||
resistant to OD 70 Herbicide and other Group 2 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:
|
||
x Rotate the use of OD 70 Herbicide or other Group 2 herbicides within a growing season sequence or among growing seasons
|
||
with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x 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 (weed-
|
||
competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices.
|
||
x Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance development. Indicators of possibl e
|
||
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.
|
||
x 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 available.
|
||
x Contact 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.

COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS
|
||
|
||
Compatibility
|
||
If OD 70 Herbicide is to be tank mixed with liquid fertilizers or other pesticides, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To test for
|
||
compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 qt) of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the
|
||
anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility
|
||
usually will appear within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow all parts of the label of each tank-mix product.
|
||
|
||
Tank Mix Instructions
|
||
For control of weeds not listed on this label, OD 70 Herbicide may be mixed with other herbicides with the exception of dicamba
|
||
containing products. It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the
|
||
intended use. Read and follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.

Tank Mixtures for Disease Control
|
||
OD 70 Herbicide may be applied in combination with Stratego®, Headline, Quilt, Quadris, Tilt*® or Topsin® M 70WP fungicides for weed
|
||
and disease control. Do not apply OD 70 herbicide in tank mixture with tebuconazole. Tank mix applications of herbicides with
|
||
fungicides may cause temporary yellowing, leaf burn, and or height reduction of the crop. Refer to the specific fungicide label for use
|
||
directions, application rates, restrictions and a list of diseases controlled.
|
||
*Tilt or equivalent propiconazole products are limited to a maximum of 2 oz/A (0.0513 lb ai/A)
|
||
Tank Mixtures for Insect Control
|
||
OD 70 Herbicide may be applied with Baythroid®XL, Mustang Max or Warrior® insecticides. Refer to the specific insecticide label for use
|
||
directions, application rates, restrictions and a list of insects controlled.
|
||
|
||
Order of Mixing
|
||
OD 70 Herbicide must be applied with clean and properly calibrated equipment. Prior to adding OD 70 Herbicide to the spray tank,
|
||
ensure that the spray tank, filters and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned. In-line strainers and nozzle screens should be 50 mesh or
|
||
coarser.
|
||
1. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with clean water and begin agitation or bypass.
|
||
2. Add the specified rate of OD 70 Herbicide directly to the spray tank. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and
|
||
application. DO NOT pre-slurry by adding any quantity of OD 70 Herbicide to a small amount of water.
|
||
3. Add a listed tank mix partner, if desired.
|
||
4. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
|
||
5. Continue agitation during OD 70 Herbicide application to ensure uniform spray coverage.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: OD 70 Herbicide may settle if left standing without agitation. If the spray solution is allowed to stand for one hour or more, re-
|
||
agitate the spray solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before application.
|
||
|
||

|
||
Equipment Cleanup Procedures
|
||
1. Drain the tank completely, and then wash out tank, boom and hoses with clean water. Drain again.
|
||
2. Half fill the tank with clean water and add ammonia (i.e., 3% domestic ammonia solution) at a dilution rate of 1% (i.e., 1 g allon
|
||
of domestic ammonia for every 100 gallons of rinsate). Complete filling of the tank with water. Agitate/recirculate and flush
|
||
through boom and hoses. Leave agitation on for 10 minutes. Drain tank completely.
|
||
3. Repeat step 2.
|
||
4. Remove nozzles and screens and soak them in a 1% ammonia solution. Inspect nozzles and screens and remove visible
|
||
residues.
|
||
5. Flush tank, boom, and hoses with clean water.
|
||
6. Inspect tank for visible residues. If present, repeat step 2.

Cover Crops
|
||
Use of cover crops as a means of soil improvement, erosion control, weed and/or insect suppression, etc., following harvest in the fall is
|
||
increasing. Planting of cover crops in fields treated with OD 70 Herbicide is allowed as long as these cover crops are not grazed by
|
||
livestock nor harvested for food. Cover crops are to be tilled under or chemically controlled with burndown herbicides in the
|
||
spring. Many cover crops can be planted within 90-120 days after application of OD 70 Herbicide. However, all potential cover crops
|
||
have not been evaluated for tolerance to OD 70 Herbicide and significant injury may occur. Prior to seeding a cover crop, complete a
|
||
successful field/ small scale bioassay to provide an indication of the level of tolerance to the prior OD 70 Herbicide application. Refer to
|
||
the “Field/Small Scale Bioassay” section.
|
||
Field/Small Scale Bioassay
|
||
A field/ small scale bioassay must be completed before rotating to a cover crop other than those specified in the “Rotational Crop
|
||
Restrictions” section of this label. To conduct an effective field bioassay, grow strips of the crop(s) you intend to grow the following
|
||
season in a field previously treated with OD 70 Herbicide. The test strip should be placed in a controlled area and should include low
|
||
areas and knolls, and include variations in soil such as type and pH. Crop response to the bioassay will determine if the crop(s) grown in
|
||
the test strips can be grown safely in the areas previously treated with OD 70 Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
For an effective small scale bioassay, collect uniform samples of all soil types from the OD 70 Herbicide- treated field and place the soil
|
||
into a sturdy container. Plant the desired cover crop into the soil, apply water and place the container in a warm, sunny area to allow
|
||
germination and growth of the crop. Monitor growth of the cover crop over a three to four week period. If the cover crop emerges and
|
||
grows normally, the risk to establish and grow the cover crop in the OD 70 Herbicide-treated field should be tolerable.

||
WEEDS CONTROLLED & PARTIALLY CONTROLLED
|
||
|
||
OD 70 Herbicide effectively controls the following weeds when applied at the application timings recommended and when weeds are
|
||
actively growing. Best control is achieved when grass weeds are treated between the 1-leaf to 2-tiller stage of growth and broadleaf
|
||
weeds are between the 1-6 leaf stage of growth, unless otherwise indicated. OD 70 Herbicide will have an effect on weeds that are
|
||
larger than the recommended leaf stage; however the speed of activity and level of control may be reduced.
