WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
x F7488-1 is a soil-applied herbicide for the control of susceptible broadleaf, grass and sedge weeds.
|
||
x If adequate moisture (1/2" to 1") from rainfall or irrigation is not received within 7 to 10 days after the
|
||
F7488-1 treatment, a shallow incorporation (less than 2”), may be needed to obtain desired weed
|
||
control.
|
||
x When activating moisture is not received a planned POST application of a labeled herbicide will be
|
||
needed for optimum weed control. If an activating rainfall (½” to 1.0”) is not received F7488-1 will
|
||
provide a reduced level of control of susceptible germinating weeds.
|
||
x Do not apply additional products containing sulfentrazone and pendimethalin to the crop unless
|
||
specified in the individual crop section per twelve month season.
|
||
Observe all instructions, crop restrictions, mixing directions, application precautions, replanting directions,
|
||
rotational crop guidelines and other label information of each product when tank mixing with F7488-1.
|
||
Proper handling instructions : F7488-1 may not be mixed or loaded within 50 feet of any wells (including
|
||
abandoned wells and drainage wells), sinkholes, perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, and natural or
|
||
impounded lakes and reservoirs. This setback does not apply to properly capped or plugged abandoned wells
|
||
and does not apply to impervious pads or properly diked mixing/loading areas.
|
||
Operations that involve mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing of this product into or from pesticide handling or
|
||
application equipment or containers within 50 feet of any well are prohibited unless conducted on an impervious
|
||
pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be positioned on or moved across the pad.
|
||
Such a pad shall be designed and maintained to contain any product spills or equipment leaks, container or
|
||
equipment rinse or wash water, and rainwater that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to
|
||
either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The pad shall be sloped to facilitate
|
||
material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient capacity to contain at a minimum 110% of the capacity
|
||
of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient
|
||
size to completely exclude precipitation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum containment capacity of
|
||
F7488-1, which contains the active ingredients sulfentrazone and pendimethalin is a group 14 and 3
|
||
herbicide based on the mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America.
|
||
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations
|
||
resistant to one or more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include
|
||
the use of multiple herbicides with different sites of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without
|
||
tillage operations and/or other cultural practices. Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate
|
||
and directions for use is important to delay the selection for resistance.
|
||
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed resistance
|
||
management program.
|
||
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should:
|
||
· Scout fields before application for weeds for identification of species and sizes.
|
||
· Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
|
||
· Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches).
|
||
· Apply full rates of F7488-1 for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the specified time (correct
|
||
weed size) to minimize weed escapes.
|
||
· Scout fields after application to detect any poor performance or likely resistance in weeds.
|
||
· Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
|
||
· Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your local retailer or
|
||
county extension agent.
|
||
· Contact your crop advisor or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to these MOAs have
|
||
been found in your region. Do not assume that each listed weed is being controlled by multiple sites of
|
||
action. Products with multiple active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum of weeds that are
|
||
controlled. Some weeds may be controlled by only one of the active ingredient in this product.
|
||
· If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than Group
|
||
14 or 3 and/or use nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing
|
||
further seed production.
|
||
· Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
|
||
- Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied,
|
||
especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
- A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
|
||
- Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
|
||
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is
|
||
practical:
|
||
· Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control
|
||
program.
|
||
· Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
|
||
· Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 14 or 3 herbicides.
|
||
· Avoid making more than two applications of F7488-1 and any other Group 14 or 3 herbicides within a
|
||
single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping
|
||
spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.
|
||
· Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, such as mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover
|
||
crops and weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
|
||
· Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness.
|
||
· Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant
|
||
weeds.
|
||
· Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.
|
||

|
||
100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. Containment
|
||
capacities as described above shall be maintained at all times. The above specific minimum containment
|
||
capacities do not apply to vehicles when delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading site. States may
|
||
have in effect additional requirements regarding wellhead setbacks and operational containment.
|
||
Product must be used in a manner that will prevent back siphoning in wells, spills or improper disposal of excess
|

pesticide, spray mixtures or rinsates.
|
||
|
||
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
|
||
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only
|
||
protected handlers may be in the area during application.
|
||
Do not apply more than the allowed amount of F7488-1 per acre per twelve-month period as stated in the
|
||
Maximum Use Rate Table. The twelve-month period is considered to begin upon the initial F7488-1 application.
|
||
For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the Agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
|
||
Extreme care must be exercised and the Crop Specific Use Directions followed. See specific crop section
|
||
on F7488-1 label.
|
||
Mode of Action
|
||
F7488-1 provides two modes of action- Protoporpyrinogen Oxidase IX (PPO IX) and a meristematic inhibitor that
|
||
interferes with the plant’s cellular division or mitosis.
|
||
Mechanism of Action
|
||
Following the application of F7488-1 to soil, germinating seeds and seedlings take up F7488-1 from the soil
|
||
solution. The amount of F7488-1 in soil solution available for weed uptake, is determined primarily by soil type,
|
||
organic matter and soil pH. F7488-1 adsorbs to the clay and organic matter (OM) fractions of soils; effectively
|
||
limiting the amount of active ingredient immediately available to control weeds.
|
||
Influence of Soil type, organic matter and pH on F7488-1 Use Rates and Crop
|
||
Response
|
||
Coarse and high pH >7.2 soils will exhibit increased weed control and crop response with F7488-1. It is important
|
||
to know the soil type and pH levels of the field (or areas within a field) for application to determine the proper rate
|
||
of F7488-1 for the crop Soil organic matter content and pH can vary widely and independently of soil type and
|
||
requires an accurate analysis of representative soil samples to determine its content.
|
||
It is important to note that irrigation with highly alkaline water (high pH) following a F7488-1 soil application can
|
||
also significantly increase the amount of F7488-1 available in the soil solution. Irrigation with water having a pH
|
||
greater than 7.2 could result in adverse crop response. This response will ultimately depend on initial F7488-1
|
||
application rate, timing, amount and pH of irrigation water and sensitivity of the crop and it’s growth stage when
|
||
irrigated. The risk of adverse crop response will lessen with the advance in growth stage among most crops.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
|
||
Ground Application
|
||
Utilize a sprayer equipped with the appropriate nozzles providing optimum spray distribution and coverage at the
|
||
appropriate operating pressures. Utilize nozzles that produce minimal amounts of fine spray droplets to avoid
|
||
spray drift or inadequate foliar and/or soil coverage. Apply a minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre by
|
||
ground. When tank mixed with a contact burndown herbicide, ground applicators must use a minimum spray
|
||
volume of 15 gallons per acre. The sprayer should be properly calibrated to deliver the appropriate volume of
|
||
herbicide solution. Be aware that overlaps and slower ground speeds while starting, stopping or turning while
|
||
spraying may result in excessive application and subsequent crop response.
|
||
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment
|
||
|
||
Aerial Application
|
||
Aerial application is allowed only when environmental conditions prohibit ground application. Use nozzle types
|
||
and arrangements that will provide optimum coverage while producing a minimal amount of fine droplets. Apply
|
||
sufficient spray volume to achieve adequate coverage. When this product is allowed to be applied by air,
|
||
applicator must use a minimum finished spray volume of 5 gallons per acre. The maximum release height must
|
||
be 10 feet from the top of the canopy, unless a greater application height is required for pilot safety.
|
||
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
|
||
These requirements must be followed to avoid off-target movement from aerial applications. These requirements
|
||
do not apply to forestry applications, public health uses or to applications of dry materials.
|
||
1. The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed ¾ the length of the wingspan or
|
||
rotor.
|
||
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and never be pointed downwards more
|
||
than 45 degrees.
|
||
3. Observe the regulations of the State where applications are made.
|
||
4. Applicators must observe and abide by the requirements of the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory.
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT
|
||
Aerial Applications:
|
||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the crop canopy, unless a greater application
|
||
height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
• Select coarse to very coarse droplet size when Sulfentrazone is used as a preemergent/preplant application
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the wind speed is greater than
|
||
10 mph, the boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft or 75% of the
|
||
rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan for
|
||
fixed wing aircraft or 90% of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
|
||
•Select medium to very coarse droplet size when Sulfentrazone is used postemergence with a contact
|
||
burndown herbicide.
|
||
•Do not apply as spray droplets smaller than medium to coarse (defined by the ASABE* standard).
|
||
• Applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions
|
||
•When this product is allowed to be applied by air, applicator must use a minimum finished spray volume of 5 gallons per acre
|
||
|
||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||
• Applicators must only apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet
|
||
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.

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.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
• 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.
|
||
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||
|
||
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
|
||
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 spra
|
||
y drift.
|
||
|
||
6
|
||
Boom-less Ground Applications:
|
||
• Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
|
||
|
||
Handheld Technology Applications:
|
||
• Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
|
||
|
||
Chemigation Application
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, solid
|
||
set, or hand move irrigation systems. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Do
|
||
not connect any irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water
|
||
system. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness or illegal residues on or in the crop can result from non-uniform
|
||
distribution of treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service
|
||
specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. 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.
|
||
It is important to note that irrigation with highly alkaline water (high pH) following a F7488-1 soil application can
|
||
also significantly increase the amount of F7488-1 available in soil solution. Irrigation with water having a pH
|
||
greater than 7.5 could result in adverse crop response. This response will ultimately depend on initial F7488-1
|
||
application rate, application timing, amount and pH of the irrigation water, and the sensitivity of the crop and the
|
||
growth stage when irrigated. The risk of adverse crop response will lessen with advancing growth stages of most
|
||
crops.
|
||
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 also 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.
|
||
Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump)
|
||
effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted
|
||
with a system interlock.
|
||
F7488-1 should be metered into the irrigation system continuously for the duration of the water application. F7488-
|
||
1 should be diluted in sufficient volume to insure accurate application over the area to be treated. Use the
|
||
appropriate amount of water to carry the product to the soil surface. Continuous agitation is required to maintain
|
||
product suspension in the solution tank. A jar test should be conducted to ensure that phase separation would
|
||
not occur during dilution and application. Failure to achieve a uniform dilution throughout the time of application
|
||
may result in undesirable residues or less than desirable weed control. Flush the lines at the completion of the
|
||
application and then turn the water off promptly.
|
||
When using water from public water systems; DO NOT APPLY F7488-1 THROUGH ANY IRRIGATION SYSTEM
|
||
PHYSICALLY CONNECTED TO A PUBLIC WATER SYSTEM. Public water system means a system for the
|
||
provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections
|
||
or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days of the year. F7488-1 may be applied
|
||
through irrigation systems, which may be supplied by a public water system only if water from the water system
|
||
is discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air
|
||
gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and to top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the
|
||
inside diameter of the fill pipe. Before beginning chemigation, always make sure that the air gap exists and that
|
||
there is no blockage of the overflow of the reservoir tank.
|
||
Application with Dry Fertilizers
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied impregnated on dry fertilizers. W hen applied as directed with adequate soil coverage,
|
||
F7488-1 dry bulk fertilizer mixtures will provide satisfactory weed control.
|
||
Follow all F7488-1 label directions regarding product use rates per acre, registered crops, incorporation, special
|
||
instructions and precautions.
|
||
Apply F7488-1/dry fertilizer mixtures with ground equipment only.
|
||
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk fertilizer blending, registration, labeling, and application are the
|
||
responsibility of the individual and/or company prepari ng, storing, transporting, selling or applying the F7488-
|
||
1/dry fertilizer mixture.
|
||
Impregnation Directions
|
||
To impregnate F7488-1 on dry bulk fertilizer, use a closed rotary-drum mixer or other commonly used dry bulk
|
||
fertilizer blender equipped with suitable spray equipment.
|
||
Prepare a slurry of F7488-1 in a clean container using clear water. Slowly add the F7488-1/water slurry to the
|
||
impregnation spray tank and finish filling as needed with clear water. Spray nozzles must be placed to provide
|
||
uniform coverage of F7488-1 onto the fertilizer during mixing.
|
||
Refer to the SPRAYER EQUIPMENT CLEAN-OUT section for directions for cleaning impregnation equipment,
|
||
transport equipment, loading equipment and application equipment.
|
||
Apply the F7488-1 dry bulk fertilizer with an accurately calibrated dry fertilizer spreader. The F7488-1 dry bulk
|
||
fertilizer mixture must be spread uniformly on the soil surface. Uneven spreading leaving untreated areas can
|
||
cause poor weed control or overlapping areas with potential increased F7488-1 use rates could result in possible
|
||
crop response.
|
||
A minimum of 200 pounds of dry bulk fertilizer impregnated with the listed amount of F7488-1 must be applied
|
||
per acre to achieve adequate soil coverage for satisfactory weed control.
|
||
DO NOT impregnate F7488-1 onto coated ammonium nitrate or limestone because these materials will not absorb
|
||
the herbicide.
|
||
Refer to the appropriate crop section of the F7488-1 label to determine the rate of F7488-1 to be applied per acre.
|
||
Use the following table to determine the amount of F7488-1 to be impregnated on a ton (2000 pounds) of dry bulk
|
||
fertilizer based on the rate of fertilizer that will be applied per acre.
|
||

Application with Liquid Fertilizer
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied using liquid fertilizer solutions as the carrier. The fertilizer solutions may either be
|
||
concentrate formulations as blended or diluted with water. When applied as directed with adequate soil coverage,
|
||
F7488-1 applied with liquid fertilizer mixtures will provide satisfactory weed control. However, adequate soil
|
||
coverage is essential to achieve acceptable levels of weed control.
|
||
Herbicide mixing, solution stability and/or compatibility problems can occur when liquid fertilizers are used as a
|
||
carrier. Compatibility tests must be conducted prior to mixing to insure tank mixture compatibility and stability.
|
||
The use of compatibility agents may be beneficial to achieve and maintain a homogenous solution.
|
||
Mixing Instructions for Liquid Fertilizer Applications
|
||
Fill the clean spray tank to one half of the total volume with the fertilizer solution. Start the spray tank agitation
|
||
system. Prepare a slurry of F7488-1 in a clean container with clean water using equal volumes of F7488-1 and
|
||
clean water. Slowly add the F7488-1/water slurry to the spray tank. Carefully rinse the slurry container, adding
|
||
the rinsate to the spray tank. Better mixing of the F7488-1/water slurry may be achieved if the slurry is added
|
||
using induction systems on the sprayer fill plumbing system.
|
||
Complete filling the spray tank to the desired level. Sufficient and continuous spray tank agitation is required at
|
||
all times to maintain a homogenous spray solution. The spray system must be designed such that there is
|
||
sufficient flow capacity to uniformly apply the spray mixture and maintain adequate tank agitation. Some systems
|
||
may require separate pumps to simultaneously supply the spray system and the spray tank agitation system.
|
||
Insure the F7488-1 slurry is thoroughly mixed before application.
|
||
For tank mixtures with other herbicide(s), a compatibility test must be conducted to insure product compatibility
|
||
before mixing. Read and follow all the directions, precautions and restrictions of the tank mixture products prior
|
||
to mixing.
|
||
Apply the F7488-1 spray mixture immediately after mixing. It is not recommended to store the sprayer overnight
|
||
or for any extended period of time with the F7488-1 spray mixture remaining in the tank. Thoroughly re-agitate
|
||
spray mixture if product is left sitting in the tank for extended period of time.
|
||
Do not premix F7488-1 spray solutions in nurse tanks.
|
||
Follow all F7488-1 label directions regarding product use rates per acre, registered crops, application instructions,
|
||
incorporation directions, special instructions and all precautions.
|
||
All individual state regulations relating to liquid fertilizer blending, storage, transportation, registration, labeling,
|
||
and application are the responsibility of the individual and/or company preparing, selling or applying the F7488-1
|
||
and fertilizer mixture.

MIXING AND LOADING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied alone, or in tank mixtures with other herbicides for the control of additional weed species.
|
||
Mixtures with some other pesticides have not been tested. Conduct appropriate compatibility tests prior to tank
|
||
mixing with other pesticides. Follow all precautions and restrictions on the tank mix partner label.
|
||
It is important that spray equipment is clean and free of existing pesticide residues before preparing F7488-1
|
||
spray mixtures. Follow the spray tank clean out procedures specified on the label of the product or products
|
||
previously applied.
|
||
For best results fill spray tank with one half of the volume of clean water needed for the field to be treated. Start
|
||
agitation system. Prepare a slurry of F7488-1 in a clean container using clean water. Slowly add the F7488-
|
||
1/water slurry to the spray tank. Carefully rinse the slurry container, adding the rinsate to the spray tank. Complete
|
||
filling the spray tank to the desired level. Continuous spray tank agitation is required at all times to maintain a
|
||
uniform spray solution. Make sure F7488-1 is thoroughly mixed before application or before adding another
|
||
product to the spray tank.
|
||
Use the F7488-1 spray mixture immediately after mixing. Do not store the sprayer overnight or for any extended
|
||
period of time with the F7488-1 spray mixture remaining in the tank.
|
||
Do not premix F7488-1 spray solutions in nurse tanks.
|
||
If F7488-1 is tank mixed with other herbicides, all additional directions, restrictions and precautions for the tank
|
||
mixture herbicides must be followed.
|
||
|
||
SPRAYER EQUIPMENT CLEAN-OUT
|
||
As soon as possible after spraying F7488-1 and before using sprayer equipment for any other applications, the
|
||
sprayer must be thoroughly cleaned to avoid potential crop affects using the following procedure. Residues left
|
||
in mixing equipment, spray tanks, hoses, spray booms and nozzles can cause crop effects if they are not properly
|
||
cleaned. In addition, users must take appropriate steps to ensure proper equipment clean-out for any other
|
||
products mixed with F7488-1 as required on the other product labels. More complete cleaning can be achieved
|
||
if the spray system is cleaned immediately following the application.
|
||
1. 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.
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
9
|
||
3. 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.
|
||
4. 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.
|
||
5. 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 F7488-1 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 F7488-1 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.
|
||
Do not drain of flush equipment on or near desirable trees or plants.
|
||
Do not contaminate any body of water including irrigation water that may be used on other crops.
|
||
REPLANTING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
If initial planting of labeled crops fails to produce a stand, only crops labeled for F7488-1 or the tank mix partner;
|
||
whichever is most restrictive, may be planted based on the amount of product initially applied Do not retreat field
|
||
with F7488-1 or other herbicide containing sulfentrazone and pendimethalin Do not plant treated fields with any
|
||
crop at intervals that are inconsistent with the Rotational Crop Guidelines on this label. When replanting use
|
||
minimum soil tillage to preserve the herbicide barrier and achieve maximum weed control.

Apply F7488-1 after planting and up to 3 days after planting (Table above). F7488-1 can be tank mixed with other
|
||
herbicides labeled for use in corn. To control insect pests such as cutworm or armyworm that may be present,
|
||
F7488-1 may be tank mixed with insecticides including Mustang Max or Capture LFR. If weeds are emerged at
|
||
the time of F7488-1 application, use a burndown herbicide in conjunction with F7488-1 as needed. Observe all
|
||
precautions, instructions, and rotational cropping guidelines of each product’s label when tank mixing, including
|
||
all references to potential carryover and crop injury warnings or restrictions.

Incorporation of F7488-1 deeper than 2 inches can result in adverse crop response and/or inconsistent weed
|
||
control. Do not use F7488-1 for “at-crack” type applications or apply to exposed peanut tissue. Such use can
|
||
result in significant adverse crop response. Under conditions of exceptionally high weed populations or when
|
||
weeds not controlled by F7488-1 are anticipated, the use of suitable post-emergent peanut herbicides is
|
||
recommended. Broadcast apply the correct F7488-1 use rate from Table below, in a minimum of 10 gallons of
|
||
water per acre of finished spray by ground or 5 gallons of water per acre of finished spray by air. Banded F7488-
|
||
1 application rates must be adjusted in proportion to the broadcast rate.

|
||
Preplant incorporated: Apply F7488-1 up to 14 days prior to planting and incorporate.
|
||
Preemergence: Apply F7488-1 at planting or within 12 hours after planting. Apply preemergence to peanuts
|
||
grown under overhead irrigation. Proper closed seed furrows are required when applying at planting time or before
|
||
seed germination. To prevent decreased crop pegging, adequate incorporation must be achieved by applying a
|
||
minimum of 0.75 inches of overhead irrigation or rainfall within 48 hours of application.

*Suppression
|
||
Irrigation with alkaline (pH 8 to 9) water can result in adverse crop response. The extent of crop response is
|
||
dependent on F7488-1 application rate, soil type (including %OM and pH), timing (after F7488-1 application
|
||
relative to crop emergence), amount and pH of irrigation water. Do not irrigate with water greater than pH 9.
|
||
After peanuts are established (4” to 6” across in size), the alkalinity of irrigation water has minimal impact on crop
|
||
growth.
|
||
Precautions
|
||
F7488-1 is especially effective against a wide range of economic broadleaf and grass weeds. The same process
|
||
that F7488-1 affects in these weeds can, under certain conditions, be affected in peanuts. These conditions
|
||
include pH (7.5 and above), cool weather, prolonged and excessive moisture, seedling disease, and other
|
||
conditions, including poor agronomic practices, that are unfavorable to vigorous crop growth. Such effects in
|
||
peanuts are often observed as stunting and discoloration. The duration of these effects are somewhat dependent
|
||
on the duration of the adverse growing conditions. These effects lessen and generally diminish with a return to
|
||
normal growing conditions.
|
||
|
||
These Crop Specific Use directions are based upon the interactive effects of F7488-1 (sulfentrazone) and the
|
||
primary soil and environmental factors, which affect its activity on various weed species and tolerance among
|
||
crops. The user is required to observe the instructions and guidance previously presented under Application
|
||
Instructions, F7488-1 Product Use Rates, Rotational Crop Guidelines, Replanting Instructions, Weed Controlled
|
||
and any other section of this label pertinent to the anticipated crop use. It is important to note that not all varieties
|
||
or cultivars of a given crop species have been evaluated under treatment with F7488-1. Consult university or
|
||
extension weed management specialists for additional information on specific local varieties or cultivars and any
|
||
other pertinent information on F7488-1 under specific local conditions.
|
||
Restrictions
|
||
Do not apply more than 60 fl oz/A of F7488-1 (0.16 lb ai sulfentrazone and 1.47 lb ai pendimethalin) per twelve-
|

|
||
Do not feed treated peanut forage or peanut hay to livestock.
|
||
Do not use on soils classified as sand, which have less than 1% organic matter.

|
||
|
||
Ground and Aerial Applications
|
||
Apply F7488-1 by aerial application as a preemergence treatment following planting and after dragoff, but prior
|
||
to potato emergence. Optimum performance can be achieved if F7488-1 is applied to the soil surface and either
|
||
rainfall or overhead irrigation is used to activate the product. If no moisture is received within 7 days following
|
||
application in areas without irrigation, a shallow incorporation (less than 2 inches) may be needed prior to weed
|
||
and potato emergence to activate the product. Select the appropriate use rate based on soil texture and organic
|
||
matter as shown in Table above. For control of emerged weeds at the time of the F7488-1 application, an
|
||
appropriate burndown herbicide and adjuvant labeled for potatoes may be tank mixed with F7488-1 to control
|
||
these weeds. Do not apply F7488-1 if the potatoes have emerged from the soil as undesirable crop response
|
||
may occur. F7488-1 may be tank mixed with other soil-applied herbicides labeled for use in potatoes to improve
|
||
weed management and increase weed control spectrum.
|
||
Apply F7488-1 in a minimum of 10 gallons of spray by ground application and 5 gallons of spray by air.
|
||
Chemigation Applications
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied to potatoes through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, end
|
||
tow, solid set or hand move irrigation systems. Apply F7488-1 prior to potato emergence using sufficient water
|
||
(0.25 to 0.5 inch per acre) to provide thorough soil surface coverage, but to avoid runoff of irrigation water. F7488-
|
||
1 may be applied with other products labeled for chemigation use in potatoes.
|
||
It is important to note that irrigation with highly alkaline water (high pH) following a F7488-1 soil application may
|
||
significantly increase the amount of sulfentrazone and pendimethaline available in soil solution. Irrigation with
|
||
water having a pH greater than 7.5 could result in adverse crop response. This response will ultimately depend
|
||
on initial F7488-1 application rate, application timing, amount and pH of irrigation water; the sensitivity of the crop
|
||
and the crop growth stage when irrigated. The risk of adverse crop response will lessen with advances in the crop
|
||
growth stage.
|
||
Weeds Controlled
|
||
When applied according to directions, F7488-1 will provide control of:
|
||
Amaranth, Palmer Ni ghtshade, Eastern black

|
||
Precautions
|
||
Potato varieties may vary in their response to herbicide applications. When using F7488-1 on an untested variety,
|
||
always determine the crop tolerance before planting. Some potato varieties, including Sangre, Shepody and
|
||
Snowden, have shown sensitivity to F7488-1. Caution should be used when planting these varieties on marginal
|
||
coarse soils.
|
||
These Crop Specific Use directions are based upon the interactive effects of F7488-1 and the primary soil and
|
||
environmental factors, which affect its activity on various weed species and tolerance among crops. The user is
|
||
required to observe the instructions and guidance previously presented under Application Instructions, F7488-1
|
||
Product Use Rates, Rotational Crop Guidelines, Replanting Instructions, Weed Controlled and any other section
|
||
of this label pertinent to the anticipated crop use. It is important to note that not all varieties or cultivars of a given
|
||
crop species have been evaluated under treatment with F7488-1. Consult university or extension weed
|
||
management specialists for additional information on specific local varieties or cultivars and any other pertinent
|
||
information on F7488-1 under specific local conditions.
|
||
Restrictions
|
||
Do not use on soils classified as sand, which have less than 1% organic matter.
|

|
||
Ground and Aerial Applications
|
||
Apply F7488-1 in conventional tillage, conservation tillage, reduced tillage or no-tillage cropping systems using
|
||
rates in the F7488-1 Use Rate Table above. F7488-1 may be applied with ground or aerial sprayers calibrated to
|
||
deliver a minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray by ground application and 5 gallons of finished spray by air.
|
||
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum coverage while producing a minimal amount of fine
|
||
droplets. Apply sufficient spray volume to achieve adequate coverage.
|
||
Preplant Incorporated and Preemergence Applications
|
||
F7488-1 can be applied prior to planting or up to 2 days after planting. When applications after planting are
|
||
delayed greater than 2 days after planting, injury may occur if seeds are germinating. F7488-1 may be applied
|
||
preemergence or preplant incorporated. For preplant incorporated applications, incorporation must be uniform
|
||
and no deeper than 2 inches. Improper soil incorporation may result in erratic weed control and/or crop injury.
|
||
F7488-1 applied near or after crop emergence may cause severe injury to the crop. F7488-1 can be applied alone
|
||
or in combination with other labeled soybean herbicides. F7488-1 may be followed by labeled postemergence
|
||
soybean herbicides for increased control of grass and broadleaf weeds. Always follow the most restrictive label
|
||
when tank mixing. When using F7488-1 in no-till or minimum till cropping systems, tank mix with an appropriate
|
||
burndown herbicide for improved control of existing weeds.
|
||
Fall Applications
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied as a fall treatment to the stubble of harvested crops for the burndown of existing
|
||
vegetation and preemergence control of labeled weeds the following spring in no-till and conservation tillage
|
||
production systems. Fall applications of F7488-1 must be made in weed control programs that include, as
|
||
needed, spring application of preplant, preemergence or postemergence herbicides for the following crop season.
|
||
F7488-1 can be applied to the stubble of a harvested crop in no-till or to the soil surface of conservation tillage
|
||
fields after harvest when the sustained soil temperature is 55 degrees F and falling at a soil depth of 4 inches.
|
||
Apply after September 30 in those areas North of Interstate 90 and after October 15 in those areas North of
|
||
Interstate 70. Do not apply F7488-1 as a fall treatment South of Interstate 70. Applications to ridge till production
|
||
systems must be made after the formation of ridges or bedded.
|
||
|
||
If weeds are emerged at the time of application, utilize a tank mixture with a suitable burndown herbicide at labeled
|
||
rates. Fall applied burndown treatments should be made with a minimum of 20 gallons per acre to achieve
|
||
adequate coverage of the weeds being treated. When making burndown applications to emerged weeds, the
|
||
addition of adjuvants such as COC or MSO to the spray mixture can be used to enhance the burndown activity
|
||
of the application.
|
||
For season long broadleaf weed control an additional tank mix or a plant post broadleaf weed program is required.

Spring Preemergence
|
||
F7488-1 can be applied at planting or up to 2 days after planting as a preemerge soil application if seedlings have
|
||
not broken the soil surface and if the seed furrow is completely closed and completely covered with soil. For
|
||
preemerge applications greater than 3 weeks prior to planting, use the mid to high rate within the appropriate rate
|
||
range for the soil and organic matter type listed in the use rate chart above. Adequate moisture (1/2" to 1") is
|
||
required for herbicide activation from rainfall or irrigation. If adequate moisture is not received within 7 to 10 days
|
||
after the F7488-1 treatment, a shallow incorporation may be needed to obtain desired weed control. When
|
||
activating moisture is not received a planned POST application of a labeled herbicide will be needed for optimum
|
||
weed control. If an activating rainfall (½” to 1.0”) is not received F7488-1 will provide a reduced and inconsistent
|
||
level of control of susceptible germinating weeds. If dry conditions persist, weed control may be reduced.
|
||
If weeds are emerged at the time of F7488-1 application, use a burndown herbicide such as AIM, glyphosate and
|
||
paraquat at the full-labeled rate in combination with F7488-1 or split application as needed.

Spring Preplant Incorporated (PPI)
|
||
F7488-1 can be applied as a Preplant Incorporated treatment in the spring up to 60 days prior to planting in
|
||
reduced and conventional tillage sunflowers. F7488-1 should be shallowly incorporated in the soil no deeper than
|
||
2 inches. Incorporating F7488-1 deeper than 2 inches can result in inconsistent weed control. Use the appropriate
|
||
rate from Table above for the soil texture, organic matter, and pH level.
|
||
Weeds Controlled:
|
||
When applied according to directions, F7488-1 will provide control of:

|
||
|
||
*Partial control will occur under dry conditions, under hea vy pest pressure or at low use rates under 45 fl oz/A.
|
||
Under these conditions plan to use a labeled POST herbicide for improved control.
|
||
Precautions
|
||
Plant sunflowers1.5” to 2.0” deep and completely cover with soil.
|
||
When applying F7488-1 to coarse textured soils, it is recommended that growers allow a minimum of 7-14 days
|
||
from application to planting. Best results are achieved with F7488-1 when applications are made early preplant
|
||
and greater than 14 days before planting.
|
||
Some adverse crop response may occur on coarse textured soils with low organic matter (less than 1.5%) and
|
||
pH of 7.2 or higher, or on highly eroded soils, or in areas of calcareous outcroppings. F7488-1 use rates should
|
||
be reduced to 28 fl oz in those areas or not applied in these areas at all. Inadequate seed furrow closure or
|
||
shallow planting (less than 1.5 inch) may result in undesirable crop response and this product should not be
|
||
applied. Poor growing conditions such as excessive moisture, low temperatures, soil compaction and diseases
|
||
may also cause undesirable crop response.
|
||
These Crop Specific Use directions are based upon the interactive effects of F7488-1 and the primary soil and
|
||
environmental factors, which affect its activity on various weed species and tolerance among crops. The user is
|

|
||
Do not exceed the F7488-1 rate as specified in the rate table by soil type and percent organic matter.
|
||
Apply F7488-1 preplant incorporated (to a depth no greater than 2 inches) with ground sprayer from 14 days up
|
||
to 12 hours prior to transplanting tobacco in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre. Incorporating F7488-1
|
||
deeper than 2 inches can result in inconsistent weed control.
|
||
Non-Bedded (Fields where raised beds are NOT formed prior to transplanting)
|
||
Perform all accepted cultural practices for land preparation, fertilizer/fungicide incorporation, etc. prior to the
|
||
application of F7488-1. Once the field has been prepared for planting, F7488-1 may be lightly preplant
|
||
incorporated from 14 days to 12 hours prior to transplanting.
|
||
|
||
Bedded (Fields where raised beds ARE formed PRIOR to transplanting)
|
||
When incorporating prior to bedding, F7488-1 must be thoroughly and uniformly incorporated to a depth no
|
||
greater than 2 inches to avoid concentrating F7488-1 in the bed.
|
||
|
||

|
||
If initial transplanting fails to produce a uniform stand, tobacco may be replanted. DO NOT re-treat field with a
|
||
second application of F7488-1, or any other herbicide containing sulfentrazone or pendimethalin. DO NOT re-
|
||
bed. Re-transplant into previously formed, treated beds.
|
||
For broad spectrum and optimum grass weed control a grass herbicide application will be required.
|
||
Weeds Controlled
|
||
When Applied according to directions, F7488-1 will provide partial control of the following weeds:
|
||
Amaranthus, palmer Pi gweed, redroot
|
||
Filaree, redstem Pi gweed, smooth
|
||
Galinsoga, hairy Sida, prickl y

|
||
Precautions
|
||
Poor agronomic practices, unfavorable pH soils, diseases, cold weather, excessive moisture, drought or other
|
||
conditions unfavorable to normal plant growth may adversely effect the growth of tobacco transplants. Weakened
|
||
transplants may be more susceptible to herbicide response and diseases, particularly under poor drainage or
|
||
compacted soil conditions or when the soil has been saturated for long periods of time. Contact your State
|
||
Agricultural Extension Service Specialist for consultation as to the agronomic recommendations suited for your
|
||
tobacco varieties and local conditions. Temporary stunting of tobacco may occur if transplants are set too
|
||
shallowly, or if heavy rainfall occurs immediately following transplanting. Splashing of treated soil onto tobacco
|
||
leaves may cause some localized and inconsequential necrosis. Use sound transplanting practices that insure
|
||
treated soil will not wash or crust over tobacco plants.
|
||

Fall Applications (For use only in ND, SD, MT, MN, WY)
|
||
F7488-1 may be applied in the fall as a preplant treatment to control or suppress weeds prior to planting dry field
|
||
pea and bean the following spring. F7488-1 should be applied to the stubble or soil surface and allow moisture
|
||
from rainfall or snow to move the product into the soil. Do not mechanically incorporate in the fall or spring as this
|
||
can destroy the herbicide barrier and allowing weed escapes to occur. Do not apply to frozen soils or to existing
|
||
snow cover to prevent F7488-1 runoff from rain or snow melt that may occur following application. If weeds are
|
||
emerged at the time of F7488-1 application, use a burndown herbicide such as Aim, Rage D-Tech, glyphosate or
|
||
paraquat at the full-labeled rate in combination with F7488-1 or split application as needed. Select the appropriate
|
||
rate from Table above within the correct soil type and organic matter range. When applying F7488-1 in the fall,
|
||
use a mid to high rate within the rate range for the appropriate soil type and organic matter.
|
||
|
||
Preplant Incorporated (PPI)
|
||
Apply F7488-1 as a Preplant Incorporated treatment in the spring up to 60 days prior to planting in reduced and
|
||
conventional tillage dry beans and peas. F7488-1 should be shallowly incorporated in the soil no deeper than 2
|
||
inches. Incorporating F7488-1 deeper than 2 inches can result in inconsistent weed control. Use the appropriate
|
||
rate from Tables above for the soil texture, organic matter, and pH level.
|
||
Weeds Controlled:
|
||
When applied according to directions, F7488-1 will provide control of:
|
||
|
||
|
||
*Partial control will occur under dry c onditions, under heavy pest pressure or at low use rates under 45 fl oz.
|
||
Under these conditions plan to use a labeled POST herbicide for improved control.
|
||
Precautions
|
||
When applying F7488-1 to coarse textured soils, it is recommended that growers allow a minimum of 7-14 days
|
||
from application to planting. Best results are achieved with F7488-1 when applications are made early preplant
|
||
and greater than 14 days before planting.
|
||
Under extended periods of dry weather, adequate weed control may not be achieved. Adequate moisture (1/2"
|
||
to 1") is required for herbicide activation from rainfall. If adequate moisture is not received within 7 to 10 days
|
||
after the F7488-1 treatment, a shallow incorporation may be needed to obtain desired weed control. When
|
||
activating moisture is not received a planned POST application of a labeled herbicide will be needed for optimum
|
||
weed control. If an activating rainfall (½” to 1.0”) is not received F7488-1 will provide a reduced and inconsistent
|
||
level of control of susceptible germinating weeds. If dry conditions persist, weed control may be reduced.
|
||
Some adverse crop response may occur on coarse textured soils with low organic matter (less than 1.5%) and
|
||
pH of 7.2 or higher, or on highly eroded soils, or in areas of calcareous outcroppings. F7488-1 use rates should
|
||
be reduced to 22.5 fl oz in those areas or not applied in these areas at all. Inadequate seed furrow closure or
|
||
shallow planting (less than 1.5 inch) may result in undesirable crop response and this product should not be
|
||
applied. Poor growing conditions such as excessive moisture, low temperatures, soil compaction and diseases
|
||
may also cause undesirable crop response.
|
||
These Crop Specific Use directions are based upon the interactive effects of F7488-1 and the primary soil and
|
||
environmental factors, which affect its activity on various weed species and tolerance among crops. The user is

|
||
Precautions
|
||
Apply F7488-1 only to dormant mint before new growth emerges. Applications made to mint that has emerged
|
||
will result in severe injury to exposed plant tissue.
|
||
Applications are recommended only to healthy mint fields . Applications to mint under stress from disease,
|
||
drought, pests and cultural or environmental conditions may result in crop injury.
|
||
Moisture (0.5 to 1.0”) in the form of rainfall or overhead irrigation is required after application to activate the
|
||
herbicide. Under extended periods of dry weather, adequate weed control may not be achieved. Adequate
|
||
moisture (1/2" to 1") is required for herbicide activation from rainfall. If adequate moisture is not received within 7
|
||
to 10 days after the When activating moisture is not received a planned POST application of a labeled herbicide
|
||
will be needed for optimum weed control. If an activating rainfall (½” to 1.0”) is not received F7488-1 will provide
|
||
a reduced and inconsistent level of control of susceptible germinating weeds. If dry conditions persist, weed
|
||
control may be reduced.
|
||
Some adverse crop response may occur on coarse textured soils with low organic matter (less than 1.5%) and
|
||
pH of 7.2 or higher, or on highly eroded soils, or in areas of calcareous outcroppings. F7488-1 use rates should
