WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT For resistance management, please note that RAGE HERBICIDE contains both a Group 14/Carfentrazone-ethyl and a Group 9/Glyphosate herbicide. Any weed population may contain plants naturally resistant to Group 14 and/or Group 9 herbicides. The resistant individuals may dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.
To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:
• Rotate the use of RAGE HERBICIDE or other Group 14 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 (weed competitive 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 available.
• 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.
• For further information or to report suspected resistance, contact FMC Corporation at 1-800-331-3148.

GENERAL INFORMATION FOR AGRICULTURAL USE
RAGE HERBICIDE is a broad spectrum, nonselective herbicide controlling weeds through two modes of action, providing both contact and systemic herbicide effects. RAGE HERBICIDE’s two modes of action will help minimize herbicide resistant weed populations.
RAGE HERBICIDE is a liquid emulsion formulation (EW). RAGE HERBICIDE should be mixed with water and a recommended adjuvant (see Adjuvant Section) for controlling selective post emergence broadleaf and grass weeds on labeled crops. Weed control is best achieved when the product is applied to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches in height or rosettes less than 3 inches across.
RAGE HERBICIDE is rapidly absorbed through the foliage of plants and becomes rainfast when spray solution has dried. To avoid significant crop response, applications should not be made within 6 - 8 hours of either rain or irrigation. Within a few hours following application, the foliage of susceptible weeds shows signs of desiccation. Plant necrosis and death occur several days after the application. Some herbicidal symptoms may appear on the
crop. due to environmental conditions and/or with certain spray tank additives, some herbicidal symptoms may appear on the crop. However, the crop recovers quickly with no loss in yield.
Extremes in environmental conditions such as temperature, moisture, soil conditions, and cultural practices may affect the activity of RAGE HERBICIDE. Under warm moist conditions, herbicide symptoms may be accelerated. While under very dry conditions, the expression of herbicide symptoms may be delayed. Weeds hardened off by drought are less susceptible to RAGE HERBICIDE.
TANK MIXTURES RAGE HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with other herbicides to control weeds not listed on this label but are on the tank mix partner’s label. Read and follow all manufacturers’ label recommendations for the companion herbicide along with the recommendations on this label. See Mixing and Loading Section for tank mixing instructions.
Adjuvants A nonionic surfactant (NIS). methylated seed oil (MSO), or crop oil concentrate (COC) is required. Use a non-ionic surfactant (NIS) having at least 80% active ingredient at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray solution) or a methylated seed oil, or a crop oil concentrate (COC) at 1% v/v (1 gallon per 100 gallons of spray solution). Ammonium sulfate (AMS) at 2-4 pounds per acre may be used in addition to the nonionic surfactant, methylated seed oil, or crop oil concentrate. Product use rate should not be reduced when AMS is used. The addition of UAN or AMS may increase the level of leaf speckling compared to NIS. MS0, or COC used alone. Refer to individual crop recommendation Sections for specific adjuvant type and use rates.
Ammonium Sulfate: Where hard water conditions exist, 8 to 16 pounds of dry ammonium sulfate (or the equivalent amount of ammonium sulfate in a liquid formulation) should be used per 100 gallons of water. Thoroughly dissolve the dry ammonium sulfate in the spray tank before adding herbicides. After use, completely rinse the spray system with clean water to reduce corrosion.
Drift Reduction Agents: Drift reduction agents may be used, especially near sensitive vegetation. Drift reduction agents can affect the spray pattern, causing reduced performance if adequate coverage is not obtained. Check your local county or state regulations that may require the use of a drift reduction agent. Read and follow label directions for use when using a drift reduction agent.
Mixing and Loading Instructions: Fill the spray tank 3/4 full with clean water and activate the agitation system. Use the following mix order:
- If ammonium sulfate is used, slowly add it into the spray water. Continue agitation and ensure that ammonium sulfate is completely dissolved before adding other products.
- Dry formulations (e.g., powders, dry flowables)
- Liquid suspensions (e.g., RAGE HERBICIDE and other flowables)
- Liquids (e.g., EC's). Complete filling the spray tank to the desired level.
The spray tank agitation should be sufficient to ensure uniform spray mixture during application and until the spray tank has been emptied. RAGE HERBICIDE is a liquid suspension formulation which should be thoroughly mixed in the spray tank after dry formulations are thoroughly mixed and before other products are added. A compatibility test should be conducted prior to mixing RAGE HERBICIDE with other products. Avoid the overnight storage of RAGE HERBICIDE spray mixtures. Premixing RAGE HERBICIDE spray solutions in nurse tanks is not recommended.
Maintain continuous spray solution agitation until all the spray solution has been used.
Do not use with tank additives that lower the pH of the spray solution below pH of 5 or increase the pH above pH of 8. Buffer the spray solution to alter the pH range as appropriate.
On Farm Testing Not all varieties or cultivars of labeled crops have been fully evaluated under all environmental and soil conditions. For additional and specific information, consult University or local Extension specialists. It may also be beneficial to conduct small on farm trials under actual conditions with specific varieties or cultivars before treating large acreage.
Spray Equipment Clean-Out:
Many new pesticides are very active at low rates, especially to sensitive crops. Residues left in mixing equipment, spray tanks, hoses, spray booms and nozzles can cause crop effects if they are not properly cleaned. As soon as possible after spraying RAGE HERBICIDE and before using the sprayer equipment for any other applications, the sprayer equipment must be thoroughly cleaned using the following
procedure. In addition, users must take appropriate steps to ensure proper equipment clean-out for any other products mixed with RAGE HERBICIDE as required on the other product labels. More complete cleaning can be achieved if the spray system is cleaned immediately following the application.
-
Drain sprayer tank, hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles. Use a high-pressure detergent wash to remove physical sediment and residues from the inside of the sprayer tank and thoroughly rinse. Then, thoroughly flush sprayer hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles with a clean water rinse. Remove and clean spray tips and all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tips) separately in the ammonia solution of Step 2.
-
Next, prepare a sprayer cleaning solution by adding three gallons of ammonia (containing at least 3% active) per 100 gallons of clean water. Prepare sufficient cleaning solution to allow the operation of the spray system for a minimum of 15 minutes to thoroughly flush hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles.
-
Convenient and thorough cleaning of the sprayer can be achieved if the ammonia solution or fresh water is left in the spray tank, hoses, spray booms and spray nozzles overnight or during storage.
-
Before using the sprayer, completely drain the sprayer system. Rinse the tank with clean water and flush through the hoses, spray boom, and spray nozzles with clean water. Remove and clean spray tips and all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tip) separately in an ammonia solution.
-
Properly dispose of all cleaning solution and rinsate in accordance with Federal, State, and local regulations and guidelines.
Do not apply sprayer cleaning solutions or rinsate to sensitive crops.
Do not store the sprayer overnight or for any extended period of time with RAGE HERBICIDE spray solution remaining in the tank, spray lines, spray boom plumbing, spray nozzles or strainers.
If the sprayer has been stored or idle, purge the spray boom and nozzles with clean water before beginning any application.
Should small quantities of RAGE HERBICIDE remain in inadequately cleaned mixing, loading and/or spray equipment, they may be released during subsequent applications potentially causing effects to certain crops and other vegetation. FMC accepts no liability for any effects due to inadequately cleaned equipment.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
GROUND APPLICATION Operate ground sprayer to deliver uniform spray deposition to the target. Overlaps and slower ground speeds cause higher application rates and possible crop response.
Spray Buffer for Ground Application Spray buffer zones for ground applications, listed in chart below, are required when indigenous endangered plant species are present. . Buffers to Indigenous Endangered Plant Species RAGE HERBICIDE USE RATE (fl oz/A) Low Spray Boom Buffer (ft.) High Spray Boom Buffer (ft.) 30 20 33 40 26 46
Conventional Boom and Nozzle Sprayers Utilize a boom and nozzle sprayer equipped with the appropriate nozzles, spray tips and screens and adjusted to provide optimum spray distribution and coverage at the appropriate operating pressures. Utilize nozzles, which produce minimal amounts of fine spray droplets. Do not exceed 30 psi spray pressure unless otherwise required by the manufacturer of drift reducing nozzles. Apply a minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre. Higher spray volumes are required when there is a dense weed population or crop canopy. Sprayers should be adjusted to position spray tips a minimum of 18 inches above the crop and operated to avoid the application of excessive herbicide rates directly over the rows and/or into the whorl of treated crop plants.
Directed Sprayers RAGE HERBICIDE may be applied with drop nozzles or other type sprayer equipment capable of directing the spray to the target weeds and away from sensitive plant parts.
Hooded Sprayers RAGE HERBICIDE may be applied with hooded sprayers to control labeled weeds between the rows of the listed crops in the Harvest Aid Section. This treatment may be made to crops grown in rows, and includes crops grown in rows where mulch or plastic barriers are used as a weed control tool in the drill or plant line. RAGE HERBICIDE may be applied at rates up to 40 ounces per broadcast acre not to exceed the amount listed in the Maximum Allowable RAGE HERBICIDE Use Table in a minimum of 10 gallons per acre of finished spray. RAGE HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with other pesticides registered for this treatment pattern.
For best performance, make application to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches tall and rosettes less than 3 inches across. Coverage is essential for good control . A nonionic surfactant or crop oil concentrate must be used to enhance activity of RAGE HERBICIDE. For selecting an adjuvant refer to the adjuvant section.
Hooded sprayers must be designed, adjusted and operated to prevent any spray deposition to green stem, leaf tissue, flowers or fruit of the crop. The hooded sprayer should be designed and operated so that the spray pattern is totally enclosed. Hooded sprayers should be operated in such a manner as to minimize vertical movement such as bouncing or the raising of the equipment during application. Hood sprayers should not be operated in excess of five (5) miles per hour to minimize which may cause bouncing. Extreme care must be taken during operations in fields where there is undulation of the soil surface, deep furrows, drains or other contours which would disturb the adjustment and positioning of the spray equipment and/or the spray pattern. Applications must not be made when wind conditions disturb the spray patterns which results in spray deposition to sensitive plants or plant parts including crops.
Precautions: Crop injury will occur when spray is allowed to come in contact with the leaves, green stem tissue, flowers or fruit of the crop.
Restrictions: Do not apply more than 80 fl oz/A in the growing season as a row middle application. Do not apply more than 120 fl oz/A per crop season as a hooded sprayer application.
Band Treatment Applications For band treatment, apply the broadcast equivalent rate and volume per acre. To determine these:
Band Width In inches Broadcast ----------- X Rate = Banded rate Row Width Per Acre In inches
Band Width In inches Broadcast ------------- X Volume = Banded volume Row Width Per Acre In inches
Handheld or High Volume Equipment (Spot Treatments) Knapsack sprayers and other high-volume spraying equipment utilizing handguns or other appropriate nozzle configurations may be used to control weeds listed in this label. Mix a 0.75 to 2 percent solution of this product in water, add a nonionic surfactant and apply to foliage of vegetation to be controlled. Refer to the 'WEEDS CONTROLLED" Section for specific application information.
Applications should be made on a spray-to-wet basis. Spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray to point of runoff.
For spot treatment of brush and trees a 5-8 percent solution may be used as a low volume directed spray. This treatment method is most effective in areas where there is a low density of the targeted vegetation. If a straight stream nozzle is used, start the application at the top of the targeted vegetation and spray evenly, contacting a minimum of 50 percent of the foliage, using a back and forth motion until the bottom of the vegetation is reached. For flat fan and cone nozzles and with hand-directed mist blowers, mist the application over the foliage of the targeted vegetation. Small, open-branched trees should be treated from only one side to ensure adequate coverage.
If the foliage is thick or there are multiple root sprouts, applications must be made from several sides to ensure adequate spray coverage.
Restriction: Use Coarse Sprays Only
Wick-type or Controlled droplet Application systems RAGE HERBICIDE is not recommended for this type of application equipment.
AERIAL APPLICATION
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum coverage while producing a minimal amount of fine droplets. Apply at a minimum of 3 gallons of finished spray per acre. Higher aerial spray volumes are required for harvest aid/defoliation treatments, dense weed population or crop canopy.
Read and follow all state and local regulations and restrictions regarding the aerial application of herbicides containing carfentrazone and glyphosate.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE GROWER.
Carfentrazone-ethyl is a contact PPO (protoporphyrinogen oxidase) herbicide. Avoid any drift conditions that would allow the product to contact desirable vegetation. Carfentrazone-ethyl is not volatile, however; mist from spray drift may cause injury to sensitive plants.
The interaction of equipment and weather related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions.
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target movement from applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications, public health uses or to applications of dry materials.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
CONTROLLING SPRAY DROPLET SIZE
Aerial and Ground Applications
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows usually produce larger droplets.
Pressure - Do not use pressures greater than that specified by the nozzle manufacturer. For many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Orientation – For aerial application, orient nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the airstream. A parallel orientation results in larger droplets than other orientations and reduces air turbulence and the production of small droplets. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential.
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low drift nozzles. For aerial applications, solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and potentially the least drift.
Boom Length - For some aerial use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
Application Height – Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of spray droplets to evaporation and wind movement. Aerial applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the target plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety.
Swath Adjustment - Swath adjustment distance must increase, with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.).
Wind - Drift potential is lowest between winds speeds of 3 to 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. Applications shall be avoided below 3 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. Do not apply Carfentrazone-ethyl when wind speed exceeds 10 mph. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator shall be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.
Temperature and Humidity - When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry.
Temperature Inversions – Do not apply carfentrazone-ethyl during a temperature inversion because the drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the following morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog. However, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified 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.
Shielded Sprayers - Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift and not interfering with uniform deposition of the product.
Sensitive Areas – Carfentrazone-ethyl shall only be applied when the wind is blowing away from adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitats for threatened or endangered species and non-target crops).
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The optimum drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift when applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (See Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions Sections for more information).
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers.
For all non-aerial applications, wind speed must be measured adjacent to the application site, on the upwind side, immediately prior to application.

Apply to corn in all tillage systems from 30 days before planting up to 8 leaf collar growth stage. Do not apply when conditions favoring drift exist or wind is above 10 mph. Coverage is essential for good control.
Use a nonionic surfactant at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of spray solution) having at least 80% active ingredient. Under dry conditions the use of a crop oil concentrate may improve weed control. The use of a crop oil concentrate may increase leaf speckling on the treated corn leaves. For best performance, make application to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches high and rosettes less than 3 inches across.
Sprayers should be adjusted to position spray tips a minimum of 18 inches above the crop and operated to avoid the application of excessive herbicide rates directly over the rows and/or into the whorl of the corn plant. Be aware that overlaps and slower ground speeds while starting, stopping or turning while spraying may result in higher application rates and possible crop response.
Preplant, Preemergence and At-Plant Apply RAGE HERBICIDE alone or with other herbicides or liquid fertilizers as a burn-down treatment prior to planting or corn emergence to control or suppress grass and broadleaf weeds. For best performance, make applications to actively growing weeds up to 4 inches high or rosettes less than 3 inches across. Coverage is essential for good control. A nonionic surfactant or crop oil concentrate must be used to enhance activity of RAGE HERBICIDE. For selecting an adjuvant refer to the adjuvant Section.
When tank mixing RAGE HERBICIDE with other products, be sure the RAGE HERBICIDE is mixed in the spray tank water after dry formulations, if used. When tank mixing with fertilizer solutions be sure to use a RAGE HERBICIDE slurry mixture. For specific mixing instructions, refer to the Mixing and Loading Instructions Section.
For all products used in tank mixes, refer to the specific product labels for all restrictions on tank mixing and observe all label precautions, instructions and rotational cropping restrictions.

RAGE HERBICIDE at 10 to 20 fl oz/A. Use higher rates when weeds are under stress or are larger.
Applications should be made by ground equipment using a minimum finished spray volume of 10 gallons of spray per acre, or by air at a minimum finished spray volume of 3 gallons of spray per acre. Do not apply more than 99 fl oz/A of RAGE HERBICIDE per season including fallow/preplant burndown and labeled crop applications.
Tank Mixtures RAGE HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with other labeled herbicides to control weeds not listed on this label. Read and follow all manufacturers’ label recommendations for the companion herbicide except for specific recommendations on this label. When tank mixing RAGE HERBICIDE with other products, be sure RAGE HERBICIDE is mixed in the spray tank water after dry formulations, if used. For specific mixing instructions, refer to the Mixing and Loading Instructions Section.
For control of additional broadleaf weeds and grasses, RAGE HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with 2,4-D (amine), Accent®, Atrazine, Basis®, Beacon®, Clarity™, Distinct®, Hornet®, Liberty®, Lightning®, Marksman®, Northstar™, Permit®, Poast®, Sencor®, Spirit™, Steadfast, Sterling® and Tough®.
When tank mixing RAGE HERBICIDE with Accent, Atrazine, Liberty, and Poast®, use adjuvants recommended on the tank mix partner label. These may include nonionic surfactant, crop oil concentrate, 28% nitrogen, ammonium sulfate or combinations of these.
For Directed Spray Applications (Applications may be made to glyphosate tolerant and conventional varieties) RAGE HERBICIDE may be applied with drop nozzles or other sprayers capable of directing the spray to the target weeds and away from the corn plant. Do not allow spray contact to the crop when applying to conventional corn varieties, RAGE HERBICIDE may be used up to the maximum of 50 fl oz/A using drop nozzles for control of larger weed sizes for those weeds listed below under “Control of Weeds”. Use appropriate rates of adjuvants such as non-ionic surfactant, crop oil concentrate or methylated seed oil.
Seed Corn Production For seed production fields, apply RAGE HERBICIDE using drop nozzles or other equipment to make a directed spray treatment. Avoid directing spray solution into the whorl of glyphosate tolerant varieties. Avoid spray contact to the crop when applying to conventional corn varieties.
Seed corn inbreds have generally shown good tolerance to RAGE HERBICIDE, however, all inbreds have not been tested. Broadcast applications may result in spray being concentrated into the whorl of the plant, which will increase leaf response. To minimize application into the whorl of the plants, drop nozzles or other type directed sprayers must be used to direct the spray to the targeted weeds.
Sweet Corn Production RAGE HERBICIDE may be applied to sweet corn, however, the user assumes all responsibility for herbicide tolerance with such use. All hybrids/varieties have not been tested for sensitivity to RAGE HERBICIDE nor does FMC Corporation have access to all seed company or food processor data. Broadcast applications may result in spray being concentrated into the whorl of the plant, which will increase leaf response. To minimize application into the whorl of the plants, drop nozzles or other type directed sprayers must be used to direct the spray to the targeted weeds.
Therefore, to the extent consistent with applicable law, any crop response arising from the use of RAGE HERBICIDE on sweet corn is the responsibility of the user. Use RAGE HERBICIDE only under the recommendation of the seed company, food processor, or State Agricultural Extension Service.
Tank Mixtures RAGE HERBICIDE may be tank mixed with Atrazine 4L (16 fl oz/A) or Atrazine 90DF (9 oz/A) or Dicamba or 2,4-D (0.125 to 0.25 lb ai/A), Clarity (3 to 4 oz/A) for additional weed control and for residual weed control. Higher rates of Atrazine, or Clarity herbicides can be used, but do not exceed the recommended label use rates allowed by these labels. For selecting an adjuvant refer to the adjuvant Section.
Restriction: Do not apply RAGE HERBICIDE as a banded or broadcast treatment over the top of corn varieties not genetically tolerant to glyphosate herbicide.

Chemical mowing or row middle Applications can be made to control or suppress both annual and perennials weeds between the row. Weeds should be actively growing and not under stress. The following perennial grasses grown as ground cover between rows in tree crops may be suppressed: Bermudagrass, tall fescue, orchardgrass, Kentucky bluegrass, and quackgrass.
Apply 3-4 fl oz/A of RAGE HERBICIDE in 10-20 gallons of water per acre to suppress tall fescue, fine fescue, orchardgrass and quackgrass. Kentucky bluegrass ground covers require 4 fl oz/A of product . Do not use Ammonium Sulfate with RAGE HERBICIDE alone or in tankmixtures.
A mowing to attain an even height of the cool season grass covers is suggested 3-4 days before application. RAGE HERBICIDE can be used to inhibit seed head emergence and suppress vegetative growth of bahiagrass. Single applications will suppress vegetative growth for a period of approximately 45 days and sequential applications will suppress vegetative growth for approximately 120 days.
Application should be made at 1 to 2 weeks after full green-up of bahiagrass, prior to seed head emergence or after the bahiagrass has been mowed to a uniform height of 3 to 4 inches. Apply 5 fl oz/A of this product, plus 1 quart of an approved nonionic surfactant per 100 gallons of total spray volume in 10 to 25 gallons of water per acre.
Sequential applications of RAGE HERBICIDE may be required to extend chemical mowing activity 6-8 weeks after first application in other perennial grass covers.
Precautions Caution must be used during applications to avoid contact of spray, spray drift or mist with foliage or green bark of trunk, branches, suckers, fruit, foliage or other parts of trees. Contact with other than matured brown bark can result in serious damage. On seedling or newly transplanted trees do not allow spray to contact green bark or trunk area. Other herbicides may be more injurious to young trees than RAGE HERBICIDE; so, if tank mixtures are used, the most restrictive precautions and restrictions of all tank-mix herbicide labels must be followed.
Restrictions Do not directly apply RAGE HERBICIDE spray solution to tree suckers.
Do not apply more than 99 fl oz/A per application (including preplant site preparation) and 272 fl oz/A per season. If RAGE HERBICIDE is used in a tank mixture, observe the other product's label for restrictions, precautions, and rotational cropping instructions.
Do not apply to Citrus within 3 day of harvest.
Do not apply to Pome Fruits from green tip/tight cluster until after harvest West of the Rocky Mountains. East of the Rocky Mountains Do not apply within 3 days of harvest
Do not apply to Stone Fruits from bud burst until after harvest.
Do not apply to Nut Trees within 3 days of harvest.
MIXING AND APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
PROPERLY MAINTAINED AND CALIBRATED EQUIPM ENT MUST BE USED FOR EFFECTIVE PRODUCT APPLICATION. AVOID SPRAYING DESIRABLE PLANTS BY CAREFULLY DIRECTING THE SPRAY OF HAND- GUN SPRAYERS. FOR BEST RESULTS DO NOT MIX WITH WATER FROM PONDS AND DITCHES THAT MAY CONTAIN SOIL.
Mixing
RAGE HERBICIDE mixes readily with water. Fill the mixing or spray tank with ½ the required amount of water. Add the recommended amount of this product and complete filling the tank to the desired level (see DIRECTIONS FOR USE Section and WEEDS CONTROLLED Section of this label. The surfactant (e.g. adjuvant) should be added near the end of the filling process, and the solution should be mixed well through agitation. Remove hose from tank immediately after filling to avoid siphoning back into the water source.
To prevent or minimize foaming of the spray solution that may occur during mixing and application, avoid the use of mechanical agitators, place the filling hose below the surface of the spray solution, terminate by-pass and return lines at the bottom of the tank and if needed use an approved anti-foam or defoaming agent.
Screen size in nozzle or line strainers should be no finer than 50 mesh. Carefully select correct nozzle to avoid spraying a fine mist which could cause drift . For best results with conventional ground application equipment, use recommended nozzles that provide coverage without fine droplets . Check for even distribution of spray droplets, and use nozzle manufacturer’s guidelines .
Adjuvants
When using RAGE HERBICIDE for site preparation and other noncrop applications, use a surfactant labeled for use with RAGE HERBICIDE or tank mix partners that contains 80 percent or more active ingredient.
Mix 1 or more quarts of a nonionic surfactant per 100 gallons of spray solution.
When making broadcast applications, surfactants should not be used in excess of 1 quart per acre Adjuvant Section.
Always read and follow the manufacturer's surfactant label recommendations, cautionary statements and other information for best results with tank mix partners with RAGE HERBICIDE.
If colorants or marking dyes are desired, choose those that are approved for use with herbicides. If colorants or marking dyes are used, performance may be reduced, especially at lower rates or dilutions.
Always read and follow the manufacturer's label recommendations, cautionary statements and other information for best results.
Spray Equipment Clean-Out
Many new pesticides are very active at low rates, especially to sensitive crops. Residues left in mixing equipment, spray tanks, hoses, spray booms and nozzles can cause crop effects if they are not properly cleaned. As soon as possible after spraying RAGE HERBICIDE and before using the sprayer equipment for any other applications, the sprayer equipment must be thoroughly cleaned using the following procedure. In addition, users must take appropriate steps to ensure proper equipment clean-out for any other products mixed with RAGE HERBICIDE as required on the other product labels. More complete cleaning can be achieved if the spray system is cleaned immediately following the application .
-
Drain sprayer tank, hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles. Use a high-pressure detergent wash to remove physical sediment and residues from the inside of the sprayer tank and thoroughly rinse. Then, thoroughly flush sprayer hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles with a clean water rinse. Remove and clean, spray tips and all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tips) separately in the ammonia solution of Step 2.
-
Next, prepare a sprayer cleaning solution by adding three gallons of ammonia (containing at least 3% active) per 100 gallons of clean water. Prepare sufficient cleaning solution to allow the operation of the spray system for a minimum of 15 minutes to thoroughly flush hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles.
-
Convenient and thorough cleaning of the sprayer can be achieved if the ammonia solution or fresh water is left in the spray tank, hoses, spray booms and spray nozzles overnight or during storage.
-
Before using the sprayer, completely drain the sprayer system. Rinse the tank with clean water and flush through the hoses, spray boom, and spray nozzles with clean water. Remove and clean spray tips and all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tip) separately in an ammonia solution.
-
Properly dispose of all cleaning solution and rinsate in accordance with Federal, State, and local regulations and guidelines.
Do not apply sprayer cleaning solutions or rinsate to sensitive crops.
Do not store the sprayer overnight or for any extended period of time with RAGE HERBICIDE spray solution remaining in the tank, spray lines, spray boom plumbing, spray nozzles or strainers.
If the sprayer has been stored or idle, purge the spray boom and nozzles with clean water before beginning any application.
Should small quantities of RAGE HERBICIDE remaining in inadequately cleaned mixing, loading and/or spray equipment, they may be released during subsequent applications potentially causing effects to certain crops and other vegetation. FMC accepts no liability for any effects due to inadequately cleaned equipment.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Aerial Equipment Unless otherwise specified, combine the recommended rates of RAGE HERBICIDE and surfactant with 3 to 20 gallons of water per acre as a broadcast spray. See the WEEDS CONTROLLED Section of this label for specific rates. When using aerial equipment, product applications may only be made as specifically recommended in this label.
Boom Equipment When using boom equipment, combine the recommended rates of RAGE HERBICIDE and surfactant with 3 to 30 gallons of water per acre as a broadcast spray to control weed or brush species listed in this label unless otherwise specified. See the WEEDS CONTROLLED Section of this label for specific rates. To ensure best results complete coverage is required. Spray volume should be increased within the recommended range as density of vegetation increases. Carefully select correct nozzle to avoid spraying a fine mist. For best results with ground application equipment, use flat fan nozzles. Check for even distribution of spray droplets.
Hand-Held and High-Volume Equipment Use Coarse Sprays Only
Knapsack sprayers and other high-volume spraying equipment utilizing handguns or other appropriate nozzle configurations may be used to control weeds listed in this label. Mix a 0.75 to 2 percent solution of this product in water, add a nonionic surfactant and apply to foliage of vegetation to be controlled. Refer to the WEEDS CONTROLLED Section for specific application information.
Applications should be made on a spray-to-wet basis. Spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray to point of runoff.
For spot treatment of brush and trees a 5-8 percent solution may be used as a low volume directed spray. This treatment method is most effective in areas where there is a low density of the targeted vegetation. If a straight stream nozzle is used, start the application at the top of the targeted vegetation and spray evenly, contacting a minimum of 50 percent of the foliage, using a back and forth motion until the bottom of the vegetation is reached. For flat fan and cone nozzles and with hand-directed mist blowers, mist the application over the foliage of the targeted vegetation. Small, open-branched trees should be treated from only one side to ensure adequate coverage. If the foliage is thick or there are multiple root sprouts, applications must be made from several sides to ensure adequate spray coverage.
Follow the Spot Treatment Chart under the Spot Treatment Section to reach your desired volume:
WEEDS CONTROLLED IN NON CROP RAGE HERBICIDE will control annual and perennial weeds as well as woody brush and trees. Rates of application and other use instructions are indicated under each type of weed in the Weeds Controlled section.

Hand-Held, High-Volume Application: Apply a 0.75 percent solution of this product in water plus 1 or more quarts of a recommended surfactant Section per 100 gallons of spray solution and apply to foliage of vegetation to be controlled.
Germination of annual weeds may continue throughout the growing season depending on the extent of soil moisture and precipitation. Weeds that germinate after application will require repeat treatments. See Weeds Controlled Section for the list of annual weeds RAGE HERBICIDE controls and suppresses.
PERENNIAL WEEDS General application instructions for perennial weeds: • Apply to vigorously growing perennial weeds. • Avoid disturbance of vegetation for at least 7 days after application unless otherwise indicated. • Do not treat weeds that have been mowed or tilled until regrowth has reached the recommended stages. • Treat vegetation prior to a killing frost. • Add 1 or more quarts of nonionic surfactant per 100 gallons spray solution to the rates of this product given in this list. See Mixing and Application Instructions Section for additional surfactant information. • Weeds that regenerate from underground parts or seed may require a repeat treatment.
Refer to APPLICATION INFORMATION Section for labeled uses and specific application instructions.
RAGE HERBICIDE plus surfactant will control the PERENNIAL WEEDS listed in Weeds Controlled Section when applied as recommended.
WOODY BRUSH and TREES General application instructions for Woody Brush and Trees: • Trees that have been cut or brush that has been mowed or tilled should not be treated until sufficient leaf area has developed from regrowth. • Use a recommended surfactant • Ensure thorough coverage when using hand held equipment • Apply when plants are actively growing and unless otherwise directed, after leaves have fully expanded. • Use the higher application rates for vines that have reached the woody stage of development, or are large or stressed because of environmental conditions. • In general, best results are obtained when application is made in late summer or fall after fruit formation. In arid areas, however, best results are obtained when brush species are at high moisture content and are flowering in spring or early summer. • Allow 7 or more days after application before disturbing treated vegetation by operations such as tillage, mowing or removal. • Plants that regenerate from underground parts or seed may require retreatment.
• Application to undesirable deciduous species with some autumn color is acceptable provided major leaf drop has not occurred. • Treatments following a fall frost may result in reduced performance.
Refer to APPLICATION INFORMATION Section " for labeled uses and specific application instructions.
RAGE HERBICIDE will control or partially control the woody brush plants and trees when applied as recommended in the Weeds Section. Applied as a 5 to 8 percent solution in a low volume directed spray as described in the "HAND-HELD AND HIGH-VOLUME EQUIPMENT" Section , this product will control or partially control all species listed in this Section of this label. Use the higher rate of application for dense stands and larger woody brush and trees.
General Recommendation: Species without a specific recommendation in the list can be partially controlled by applying 3 to 7.5 pints of this product per acre as a broadcast spray, or as a 0.75 to 1.5 percent solution with hand- held equipment.
Aquatic, Site Preparation and Other Non-Crop Sites When applied as directed and under the conditions described in the WEEDS CONTROLLED Section in this label, this product will control or partially control the labeled weeds growing in aquatic sites, areas being prepared for planting of plantation tree species and on other non-crop sites such as in public areas, recreational areas, or industrial sites. See the Aquatic Sites, Site Preparation and Other Non-crop Sites Sections of the label for a listing of specific use sites.
Aquatic Sites This product may be applied to emerged weeds in all bodies of fresh and brackish water which may be flowing, non-flowing or transient. This includes lakes, rivers, streams, ponds, estuaries, rice levees, seeps, irrigation and drainage ditches, canals, reservoirs, wastewater treatment facilities, wildlife habitat restoration and management areas.
If aquatic sites are present in the noncrop area and are part of the intended treatment, read and observe the following directions:
This product does not control plants which are completely submerged or have a majority of their foliage under water.
Irrigation -Irrigation from RAGE HERBICIDE treated area may result in injury to the irrigated vegetation. Do not use treated water for irrigation in commercial nurseries or greenhouses. For crops, do not use treated water for irrigation purposes until 14 days after treatment, or until analysis by FMC approved laboratory determines the carfentrazone- ethyl and major degradate level in intake water is less than 5 ppb.
Treated water may be used for irrigation by commercial turf farms and on residential turf and ornamentals without a holding restriction providing the application was made as a spot treatment to 20% or less of the water body surface area. If more than 20% of the water body surface is treated, do not use the water for irrigation by commercial turf farms or on residential turf and ornamentals until 14 days after treatment, or until analysis by FMC approved laboratory determines the carfentrazone-ethyl and major degradate level in intake water is less than 5 ppb.
The following table summarizes water holding periods prior to using treated water.

- For preparing agricultural sprays for food crops, turf, or ornamentals (to prevent phytotoxicity), do not use water treated with RAGE HERBICIDE before the specified time period.
There is no restriction on the use of treated water for recreation or domestic purposes.
Consult local state fish and game agency and water control authorities before applying this product to public water. Permits may be required to treat such water.
NOTE: Do not apply this product directly to water within 1 mile up-stream of an active potable water intake in flowing water (i.e., river, stream, etc.) or within 1 mile of an active potable water intake in a standing body of water such as lake, pond or reservoir. To make aquatic applications around and within 1 mile of active potable water intakes, the water intake must be turned off for a minimum period of 48 hours after the application. The water intake may be turned on prior to 48 hours if the glyphosate level in the intake water is below 0.7 parts per million and the carfentrazone-ethyl level in the intake water is below 0.2 ppm as determined by laboratory analysis. These aquatic applications may be made ONLY in those cases where there are alternative water sources or holding ponds which would permit the turning off of an active potable water intake for a minimum period of 48 hours after the applications.
Dry ditches may be treated 1 day after drawdown of water to ensure application to actively growing weeds. Allow 7 or more days after treatment before reintroduction of water to achieve maximum weed control.
Avoid washing of spray from treated foliage by spray boat or recreational boat back wash or by rainfall within 6 hours of application. Delay re-treatment for 24 hours or longer after the initial treatment.
Floating Mats of vegetation may require retreatment. Applications made to moving bodies of water must be made while traveling upstream to prevent concentration of this herbicide in water. When making any bank side applications, do not overlap more than 1 foot into open water. Do not spray in bodies of water where weeds do not exist.
The maximum application rate of 4 quarts per acre must not be exceeded in any single broadcast application that is being made over water. Impounded water that requires treatment of the total surface should be treated in two or more segments with enough time between applications to avoid oxygen depletion due to decaying vegetation. Oxygen depletion may result in fish kill.
Site Preparation RAGE HERBICIDE may be applied as a site preparation treatment prior to planting any silvicultural tree species. See the Weeds Controlled Section to determine rates of application. Aerial Application - This product may be applied with aerial application equipment for site preparation prior to planting any silvicultural tree species.
