ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
DO NOT apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean
high water mark. DO NOT contaminate water when cleaning equipment or disposing of equipment washwaters or
rinsate.
Groundwater Advisory
This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. This chemical
may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining
soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface
water via runoff for months after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to
which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential
loading of this product from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by avoiding
applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
HER11 herbicide is a dispersible granule that is used for selective postemergence weed control in wheat (including
durum), barley, oats, triticale and fallow. The best control is obtained when HER11 herbicide is applied to young,
actively growing weeds. The use rate will depend on weed spectrum and size of weed at time of application. The
degree and duration of control may depend on the following:
• weed spectrum and infestation intensity
• weed size at application
• environmental conditions at and following treatment
HER11 herbicide is a dispersible granule to be mixed in water or other recommended carrier and applied as a
uniform broadcast spray. It is noncorrosive, nonflammable, nonvolatile and does not freeze.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
HER11 herbicide is for use on wheat (including durum), barley, oats, triticale and fallow in many states. Check with
your state extension or Dept. of Agriculture before use, to be certain HER11 herbicide is registered in your state.
HER11 herbicide must be used only in accordance with instructions on this label, in separately issued labeling or
exemptions under FIFRA (supplemental labels, Special Local Need registrations, FIFRA Section 18 exemptions,
FIFRA 2(ee) bulletins), or as otherwise permitted by FIFRA. Always read the entire label, including the Limitation
of Warranty and Liability.
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.
For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
Windblown Soil Particles Advisory
This product has the potential to move off-site due to wind erosion. Soils that are subject to wind erosion usually
have a high silt and/or fine to very fine sand fractions and low organic matter content. Other factors which can affect
the movement of windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing winds, vegetative cover, site slope,
rainfall, and drainage patterns. Avoid applying this product if prevailing local conditions may be expected to result
in off-site movement.

RESTRICTIONS
Injury to or loss of adjacent sensitive crops, desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the
following:
• DO NOT apply, drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants or on areas where their roots
may extend, or in locations where the chemical may be washed or moved into contact with their roots.
• DO NOT use on lawns, walks, driveways, or tennis courts. Prevent drift of spray to desirable plants .
• DO NOT apply HER11 herbicide by air in the state of New York.
• DO NOT use low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution as a substitute for a surfactant.
• DO NOT use with liquid fertilizer solutions with a pH less than 3.0.
• DO NOT use HER11 herbicide plus products containing malathion because crop injury will result.
• DO NOT use on "Ogle", "Porter" or "Premier" varieties in spring oat as crop injury can occur.
• DO NOT make more than one application (or more than 0.1 ounce of active ingredient tribenuron methyl) of
HER11 herbicide per year on oat.
• Sequential treatments of HER11 herbicide may be made provided the total amount of HER11 herbicide applied to
the wheat, barley or triticale DOES NOT exceed 0.67 oz/A per year.
• Sequential treatments of HER11 herbicide may be made provided the total amount of HER11 herbicide applied in
fallow DOES NOT exceed 0.67 oz/A per year.
• Sequential treatments of HER11 herbicide may be made provided the total amount of HER11 herbicide applied as
a burndown treatment prior to, or shortly after planting (prior to emergence) DOES NOT exceed 0.67 oz/A per year.
• Sequential treatments of HER11 herbicide may be made provided the total amount of HER11 herbicide applied
during one fallow/preplant season DOES NOT exceed 0.67 oz/A per year.
HER11 herbicide must not be applied to wheat, barley, oat or triticale that is stressed by severe weather conditions,
drought (including low levels of subsoil moisture), low fertility, water-saturated soil, disease, or insect damage, as
crop injury may result. Risk of injury is greatest when crop is in the 2 to 5-leaf stage. Severe winter stress, drought,
disease, or insect damage following application also may result in crop injury.
• DO NOT apply to wheat, barley, oat or triticale crops underseeded with another crop.
• DO NOT harvest wheat or barley sooner than 45 days after the last application of HER11 herbicide.

PRECAUTIONS
Injury to or loss of adjacent sensitive crops, desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the
following:
• Take all necessary precautions to avoid all direct or indirect contact (including spray drift) with non-target plants
or areas.
Carefully observe all sprayer cleanup instructions both prior to and after using this product, as spray tank residue
may damage crops other than wheat, barley, oat, and triticale.
Dry, dusty field conditions may result in reduced control in wheel track areas.
Wheat, barley, oat, and triticale may differ in their response to various herbicides. FMC advises that you first consult
your state experiment station, university, or extension agent as to sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is
available, limit the initial use of HER11 herbicide to a small area.
Under certain conditions, including heavy rainfall, prolonged cold weather (daily high temperature less than 50
o F),
or wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures prior to or soon after HER11 herbicide application, temporary
discoloration and/or crop injury may occur. To reduce the potential of crop injury, tank mix HER11 herbicide with
2,4-D (ester formulations perform bestsee “Tank Mixtures” section of this label) and apply after the crop is in the
tillering stage of growth.
It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow
the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users
must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
HER11 herbicide is absorbed primarily through the foliage of plants, rapidly inhibiting the growth of susceptible
weeds. One to 3 weeks after application to weeds, leaves of susceptible plants appear chlorotic, and the growing
point subsequently dies.
HER11 herbicide provides the best control in vigorously growing crops that shade competitive weeds. Weed control
in areas of thin crop stand or seeding skips may not be as satisfactory. However, a crop canopy that is too dense at
application can intercept spray and reduce weed control.
The herbicidal action of HER11 herbicide may be affected in crops stressed from adverse environmental conditions
(such as extreme temperatures or moisture), abnormal soil conditions, cultural practices, or variations in crop
variety. In warm, moist conditions, the expression of herbicide symptoms is accelerated; in cold, dry conditions,
expression of herbicide symptoms is delayed. In addition, weeds hardened-off by drought stress are less susceptible
to HER11 herbicide.
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
HER11 herbicide, which contains the active ingredients Thifensulfuron methyl and Tribenuron methyl, is a group 2
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 to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed
sizes present.
• 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 HER11 herbicide 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 weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
5
• 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 FMC representative,
local retailer, or county extension agent.
• Contact your FMC representative, 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 2 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 2 herbicides.
• Avoid making more than two applications of HER11 herbicide and any other Group 2 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.
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
FMC advises the use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs to control pests. This product may be used as
part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that can include biological, cultural, and genetic practices
aimed at preventing economic pest damage. Base the application of this product on IPM principles and practices
including field scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest identification, population monitoring, and
treating when target pest populations reach locally determined action thresholds. Consult your state cooperative
extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate action treatment
threshold levels for treating specific pest/crop systems in your area.

LABELLED USES
HER11 herbicide provides selective postemergence control of certain broadleaf weeds in wheat (including durum),
barley, oat (spring and winter), triticale, post-harvest burndown, pre-plant burndown and fallow.
Since HER11 herbicide has very little or no soil activity, it controls only those weeds that have germinated;
therefore, apply HER11 herbicide when all or most of the weeds have germinated. Annual broadleaf weeds should
be past the cotyledon stage, actively growing, and less than 4" tall or wide. Rainfall immediately after treatment can
wash HER11 herbicide off of weed foliage, resulting in reduced weed control. Several hours of dry weather are
needed to allow HER11 herbicide to be sufficiently absorbed by weed foliage.
Apply HER11 herbicide at a rate of 0.25 to 0.67 oz/A. When applying 0.25 to 0.4 oz/A, HER11 herbicide must be
used in a tank mix combination with other registered herbicides.

TANK MIXTURES
It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and
follow the applicable restrictions, limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing.
Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank
mixture. If the instructions on the tank mix partner label conflict with this HER11 herbicide, then DO NOT use in a
tank mixture with HER11 herbicide.
HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed with one or more suitable registered herbicides to control weeds listed as
suppressed, weeds resistant to HER11 herbicide or weeds not listed under Weeds Controlled. Read and follow all
manufacturers label instructions for the companion herbicide. Follow the most restrictive labeling. If those
instructions conflict with this label, DO NOT tank mix the herbicide with HER11 herbicide.
HER11 herbicide can also be mixed with registered fungicides, insecticides, or liquid fertilizer for use on wheat,
barley, or fallow.
13
With 2,4-D (amine or ester) or MCPA (amine or ester)
HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed with the amine or ester formulations of 2,4-D or MCPA herbicides for use on
wheat and barley.
For best results in the Red River Valley and adjacent areas of North Dakota and Minnesota, add the ester
formulations of 2,4-D or MCPA herbicides to the tank at 3/8 lb active ingredient (such as 3/4 pt of a 4 lb/gal
product, or 1/2 pt of a 6 lb/gal product). No additional surfactant is needed with this mixture.
For best results in other areas, add the ester formulations of 2,4-D or MCPA herbicides to the tank at 1/4 to 3/8 lb
active ingredient (such as 1/2-3/4 pt of a 4 lb/gal product, or 1/3-1/2 pt of a 6 lb/gal product). Surfactant may be
added to the mixture at 1/2 to 1 qt per 100 gal of spray solution (0.125 to 0.25% v/v); however, adding surfactant
may increase the potential for crop injury, especially at the higher phenoxy rates. Higher rates of 2,4-D or MCPA
may be used, but DO NOT exceed the highest rate allowed by those respective labels.
Read and follow all label instructions on timing, precautions, and warnings for these herbicides before using these
tank mixtures.
With dicamba (such as Banvel® Herbicide/Clarity® Herbicide)
HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed with 1/16 to 1/8 lb active ingredient dicamba (such as 2-4 fluid oz Banvel®
herbicide, or 2-4 fluid oz Clarity® herbicide). Use higher rates when weed infestation is heavy. Surfactant may be
added to the mixture at 1/2 to 1 qt per 100 gal of spray solution (0.125 to 0.25% v/v); however, adding surfactant
may increase the potential for crop injury. Refer to the specific dicamba label for application timing and restrictions.
Tank mixes of HER11 herbicide plus dicamba may result in reduced control of some broadleaf weeds.
With 2,4-D (amine or ester) and Banvel® Herbicide/Clarity® Herbicide
HER11 herbicide may be applied in a 3-way tank mix with formulations of dicamba and 2,4-D. Make application of
HER11 herbicide + 1/16 to 1/8 lb active ingredient dicamba (such as 2-4 fluid oz Banvel® herbicide, or 2-4 fluid oz
Clarity® herbicide) + 1/4-3/8 lb active ingredient 2,4-D ester or amine per acre. Use higher rates when weed
infestation is heavy. Surfactant may be added to the mixture at 1/2 to 1 qt per 100 gal of spray solution (0.125 to
0.25% v/v); however, adding surfactant may increase the potential for crop injury. Consult the specific 2,4-D label,
dicamba label, or local guidance for more information and restrictions.
Apply this 3-way combination to winter wheat after the crop is tillering and prior to jointing (first node).
In Spring Wheat (including Durum) apply after the crop is tillering and before it exceeds the 5-leaf stage.
In Spring Barley, apply after the crop is tillering and before it exceeds the 4-leaf stage.
With bromoxynil (such as Buctril® Herbicide or Bronate® Herbicide)
HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed with bromoxynil containing herbicides registered for use on wheat, barley, or
fallow. For best results, add bromoxynil containing herbicides to the tank at 3/16 to 3/8 lb active ingredient per acre
(such as Bronate® herbicide or Buctril® herbicide at 3/4-1 1/2 pt per acre).
Read and follow all label instructions on timing, precautions, and warnings for these herbicides before using these
tank mixtures. Follow the most restrictive labeling. Tank mixes of HER11 herbicide plus Buctril® herbicide may
result in reduced control of Canada thistle.
With “Starane®” Branded Herbicides or Starane® NXT Herbicide
HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed with fluroxypyr containing herbicides registered for use on wheat, barley, or
fallow. For improved control of Kochia (2-4" tall), Russian thistle, mustard species, and wild buckwheat, HER11
herbicide may be tank mixed with “Starane®” branded herbicides. Additional 2,4-D or MCPA can be added based
on local guidance (refer to 2,4-D and MCPA labels for maximum amount that can be applied to the crop).
HER11 herbicide may be used in combination with Starane® NXT herbicide at 10 to 14 fluid ounces per acre for
improved control of kochia less than 2" tall or at 14 to 21 fluid ounces per acre for kochia 2 to 4" tall. Add 1 to 2
pints NIS per 100 gallons of spray solution in tank mixes of Starane® NXT herbicide with HER11 herbicide (see
SPRAY ADJUVANTS).
Refer to the “Starane®” branded herbicides or Starane® NXT herbicide label for information regarding use
restrictions, labeled crops, rotational cropping intervals, sprayer cleanup, use precautions and other information. The
most restrictive provisions on any label will apply. DO NOT use the tank mix if any restrictions on the labels
conflict with the instructions on this HER11 herbicide label.
14
With WideMatch® Herbicide or Colt® AS Herbicide
For improved control of kochia, Canada thistle and other broadleaf weeds in wheat (including durum), barley, and
oats, HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed with WideMatch® herbicide or Colt® AS herbicide. Tank mix at 1/2 to
2/3 pints per acre for kochia less than 2" tall and 2/3 to 1 pint per acre for kochia 2 - 4" tall. Add 1 to 2 pints NIS per
100 gallons of spray solution in tank mixes of WideMatch® herbicide or Colt® AS herbicide with HER11 herbicide
(see SPRAY ADJUVANTS).
Read and follow all label instructions on use restrictions, labeled crops, rotational cropping intervals, sprayer
cleanup, use precautions and other information. The most restrictive provisions on any label will apply.
With "Axial®" Branded Herbicides, Axial® Star herbicide, “Everest®” Branded Herbicides, or Rimfire® Max
herbicide
For improved control of wild oats and other grasses, HER11 herbicide at 0.25 to 0.5 oz/A may be tank mixed with
"Axial®" branded herbicides, Axial® Star herbicide, “Everest®” branded herbicides, or Rimfire® Max herbicide in
wheat and barley. Add 1 to 4 pints NIS per 100 gallons of spray solution in tank mixes of "Everest®" branded
herbicides or Rimfire® Max herbicide with HER11 herbicide (see SPRAY ADJUVANTS).
Refer to "Axial®" branded herbicides or Axial® Star herbicide label for specific adjuvant instructions. Read and
follow all label instructions on use restrictions, labeled crops, rotational cropping intervals, sprayer cleanup, use
precautions and other information. The most restrictive provisions on any label will apply.
With Huskie® Herbicide
HER11 herbicide at 0.25 to 0.67 oz/A may be tank mixed with Huskie® herbicide at 8.5 fl oz/A in wheat, durum, or
barley for control of broadleaf weeds, including kochia (less than 2” in height).
With Hoelon® 3EC Herbicide
HER11 herbicide may be used in combination with Hoelon® 3EC herbicide and Buctril® herbicides in accordance
with the Hoelon® 3EC herbicide label.
For best results, use the three-way tank mix of HER11 herbicide at 0.25 oz/A plus Hoelon® 3EC herbicide at 2 2/3
pt per acre plus Buctril® herbicide at 1 1/2 pt per acre. Apply only to winter wheat. This tank mix should only be
used under good soil conditions when wild oats are in the 1-4 leaf stage. If conditions are not ideal for the
performance of Hoelon® 3EC herbicide, wild oats control may be reduced. Be sure to follow all warnings and
cautions on the Hoelon® 3EC herbicide and Buctril® herbicide labels.
With Assert® Herbicide
HER11 herbicide can be tank mixed with Assert® herbicide. When tank mixing HER11 herbicide with Assert®
herbicide, always include another broadleaf weed herbicide with a different mode of action (for example: 2,4-D
ester, MCPA ester, Buctril® herbicide or Bronate® herbicide). Tank-mixed applications of HER11 herbicide plus
Assert® herbicide may cause temporary crop discoloration, stunting, or injury when heavy rainfall occurs
shortly after application.
With other grass control products
Tank mixtures of HER11 herbicide and some grass control products may result in poor grass control. FMC
recommends that you first consult your state experiment station, university, or extension agent, Agricultural dealer,
or FMC representative as to the potential for antagonism before using the mixture. If no information is available,
limit the initial use of HER11 herbicide and the grass product to a small area.
With Insecticides or Fungicides
HER11 herbicide may be tank mixed or used sequentially with insecticides (or fungicides) registered for use on
cereal grains. However, under certain conditions (drought stress, or if the crop is in the 2-4 leaf stage), tank mixes or
sequential applications of HER11 herbicide with organophosphate insecticides (such as parathion) may produce
temporary crop yellowing or, in severe cases, crop injury. Test these mixtures in a small area before treating large
areas. However, review all insecticide and fungicide labels for restrictions.
DO NOT use HER11 herbicide plus products containing malathion, as crop injury will result.
15
With Liquid Nitrogen Solution Fertilizer
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions may be used as a carrier in place of water. Run a tank mix compatibility test
before mixing HER11 herbicide in fertilizer solution. DO NOT add HER11 herbicide directly to liquid nitrogen
fertilizer; the granules will not dissolve. HER11 herbicide must be thoroughly mixed with clean water before it is
added to liquid nitrogen fertilizer. If granules remain when the mixture is poured out, add more clean water and mix
until all granules have disappeared. Ensure that the agitator is running when the HER11 herbicide premix is added.
Use of this mixture may result in temporary crop yellowing and stunting.
If using low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer in the spray solution (less than 50% of the spray solution volume), the
addition of surfactant is necessary. Add surfactant at 1/4 qt - 1 qt per 100 gal of spray solution (0.06 -0.25% v/v)
based on local guidance.
When using high rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution in the spray solution, adding surfactant increases the risk
of crop injury. Consult your agricultural dealer, consultant, fieldman, or FMC representative for specific instructions
before adding an adjuvant to these tank mixtures.
If 2,4-D or MCPA is included with HER11 herbicide and fertilizer mixture, ester formulations tend to be more
compatible (see manufacturers label). Additional surfactant is not needed when using HER11 herbicide in tank mix
with 2,4-D ester or MCPA ester and liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions.
DO NOT use low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution as a substitute for a surfactant.
DO NOT use with liquid fertilizer solutions with a pH less than 3.0.
TANK MIXTURES IN FALLOW
HER11 herbicide may be used as a fallow treatment, and should be tank mixed with other herbicides that are
registered for use in fallow. Read and follow all manufacturers label instructions for the companion herbicide.
Follow the most restrictive labeling. If those instructions conflict with this label, DO NOT tank mix the herbicide
with HER11 herbicide.
TANK MIXTURES IN PRE-PLANT BURNDOWN
HER11 herbicide may be used as a pre-plant burndown treatment alone or tank mixed with other herbicides that are
registered for use as a pre-plant burndown product, such as glyphosate plus 2,4-D (ester formulations work best) or
glyphosate plus dicamba.
Read and follow all manufacturers label instructions for the companion herbicide. If those instructions conflict with
this label, follow the most restrictive labeling (such as planting interval after application), or DO NOT tank mix the
herbicide with HER11 herbicide.
TANK MIXTURES IN POST HARVEST APPLICATIONS
HER11 herbicide may be used as a post harvest treatment to crop stubble, and should be tank mixed with other
herbicides that are registered for use in fallow.
CROP ROTATION
Labeled crops may be planted at specified time intervals following application of labeled rates of HER11 herbicide.
Use the time intervals listed below to determine the required time interval before planting. Refer to individual

WEEDS PARTIALLY CONTROLLED**
HER11 herbicide partially controls the following weeds when used according to label directions:
Catchweed bedstraw Mallow (common, little) Marestail Nightshade (cutleaf, hairy)
* See SPECIFIC WEED INSTRUCTIONS for more information.
**Partial control: A visual reduction of weed population as well as a significant loss of vigor. For better results, use
the highest labeled rate of HER11 herbicide per acre and include a tank mix partner such as 2,4-D, MCPA, Buctril®
herbicide or Banvel® herbicide/Clarity® herbicide (refer to TANK MIXTURES).
SPECIFIC WEED INSTRUCTIONS
Canada thistle: For control in wheat and barley, use 0.5 oz/A plus surfactant when all thistles are 4" to 8" with 2" to
6" of new growth. Make the application in the spring. Control will be improved by using HER11 herbicide in
combination with 2,4-D, dicamba, WideMatch® herbicide, or Colt® AS herbicide (refer to TANK MIXTURES).
Common cocklebur, Common ragweed, Lanceleaf sage: In wheat and barley, apply HER11 herbicide at 0.25 to
0.5 oz/A in combination with 2,4-D at rates from 1/4 to 3/8 lb active ingredient (ester formulations work best) when
weeds are small and actively growing. When using 1/4 lb active ingredient of 2,4-D, be sure to add surfactant at the
rate of 1/4 to 1/2 quart per 100 gallons of spray solution (0.06 to 0.125% v/v--use the higher rate under stress
conditions).
Corn gromwell, Wild buckwheat: For control in wheat and barley, use 0.5 oz/A HER11 herbicide plus surfactant.
Kochia, Russian thistle, Prickly lettuce: Naturally occurring resistant biotypes of these weeds are known to occur.
For best results, use HER11 herbicide in a tank mix with “Starane®” branded herbicides, dicamba (such as
Banvel® herbicide/Clarity® herbicide) and 2,4-D; or Bromoxynil (such as Buctril® herbicide) and 2,4-D (3/4 - 1 pt
Buctril® herbicide + 1/4 - 3/8 lb active ingredient 2,4-D ester). For improved broadleaf weed control including
kochia, HER11 herbicide can also be tank mixed with WideMatch® herbicide, Colt® AS herbicide, or Starane®
NXT herbicide. HER11 herbicide should be applied in the spring when weeds are 2” to 4" tall or 2” to 4" across and
are actively growing. Refer to the Tank Mixtures section of this label for additional details.
Yellow and Green Foxtail: HER11 herbicide at 0.4 to 0.67 oz/A may be tank mixed with GoldSky® herbicide,
“Everest®” branded herbicides, or Rimfire® Max herbicide for yellow and green foxtail suppression in wheat.
17
SPRAY ADJUVANTS
Always include a spray adjuvant with applications of HER11 herbicide. In addition to a spray adjuvant, an
ammonium nitrogen fertilizer may be used.
Consult your Ag dealer or applicator, local FMC fact sheets, technical bulletins, and service policies prior to using
an adjuvant system. If another herbicide is tank mixed with HER11 herbicide, select adjuvants authorized for use
with both products. Products must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients.
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
• Apply 0.06 to 0.50% volume/volume (1/2 pt to 4 pt per 100 gal of spray solution).
• Surfactant products must contain at least 60% nonionic surfactant with a hydrophilic/lipophilic balance (HLB)
greater than 12. See the Tank Mixtures section of this label for additional information.
Petroleum Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) or Modified Seed Oil (MSO)
• Apply at 1% volume/volume (1 gal per 100 gal spray solution) or 2% volume/volume under arid conditions.
• Oil adjuvants must contain at least 80% high quality, petroleum (mineral) or modified vegetable seed oil with at
least 15% surfactant emulsifiers.
Special Adjuvant Types
• Combination adjuvant products may be used at doses that provide the required amount of NIS, COC, MSO and/or
ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. Consult product literature for use rates and restrictions.
• In addition to the adjuvants specified above, other adjuvant types may be used if they provide the same
functionality and have been evaluated and approved by FMC product management. Consult separate FMC technical
bulletins for detailed information before using adjuvant types not specified on this label.
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
• Use 2 qt/acre of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), such as 28%N or 32%N, or 2 lb/acre of a spray-
grade ammonium sulfate (AMS). Use 4 qt/acre UAN or 4 lb/acre AMS under arid conditions.
APPLICATION TIMING
Since HER11 herbicide has very little or no soil activity, it controls only those weeds that have germinated;
therefore, apply HER11 herbicide when all or most of the weeds have germinated. Annual broadleaf weeds should
be past the cotyledon stage, actively growing, and less than 4" tall or wide. Rainfall immediately after treatment can
wash HER11 herbicide off of weed foliage, resulting in reduced weed control. Several hours of dry weather are
needed to allow HER11 herbicide to be sufficiently absorbed by weed foliage.
Wheat (Including Durum), Barley, Winter Oats and Triticale
Make applications after the crop is in the 2-leaf stage, but before the flag leaf is visible.
Spring Oats
Make applications after the crop is in the 3 leaf stage, but before jointing. DO NOT use on "Ogle", "Porter" or
"Premier" varieties as crop injury can occur.
Fallow
HER11 herbicide may be used as a fallow treatment, in the spring, summer or fall when the majority of weeds have
emerged and are actively growing.
Pre-plant Burndown
Apply HER11 herbicide as a burndown treatment to wheat (including durum) and barley to control emerged weeds
prior to, or shortly after planting (prior to emergence). Make applications when the majority of weeds have emerged
and are actively growing. HER11 herbicide can be used as a burndown treatment prior to planting other crops. See
"CROP ROTATION" for the time interval required before planting.
Post Harvest
HER11 herbicide may be used as a burndown treatment to crop stubble when the majority of weeds have emerged
and are actively growing. (See the “CROP ROTATION” section of this label for additional information.
18
GROUND APPLICATION
For optimum spray distribution and thorough coverage, use flat-fan or low-volume flood nozzles.
For flat-fan nozzles, use a spray volume of at least 5 gal per acre (GPA).
For flood nozzles on 30” spacings, use at least 10 GPA, flood nozzles no larger than TK10 (or the equivalent), and a
pressure of at least 30 psi. For 40” nozzle spacings, use at least 13 GPA; for 60” spacings use at least 20 GPA. It is
essential to overlap the nozzles 100% for all spacings.
Raindrop “RA” nozzles are not recommended for HER11 herbicide applications, as weed control performance may
be reduced.
Use screens that are 50-mesh or larger.
AERIAL APPLICATION
Use nozzle types and arrangements that provide optimum spray distribution and maximum coverage at 2 to 5 GPA.
Use at least 3 GPA in Idaho, Oregon, or Utah.
DO NOT apply by air in the State of New York. See the Spray Drift section of this label.
CHEMIGATION
DO NOT apply this product through any irrigation system.
PRODUCT MEASUREMENT
HER11 herbicide is measured using the HER11 herbicide volumetric measuring cylinder. The degree of accuracy of
this cylinder varies by + 7.5%. For more precise measurement, use scales calibrated in ounces.
PESTICIDE HANDLING
• Calibrate sprayers only with clean water away from the well site.
• Make scheduled checks of spray equipment.
• Ensure that all operation employees accurately measure pesticides.
• Mix only enough product for the job at hand.
• Avoid overfilling of spray tank.
• DO NOT discharge excess material on the soil at a single spot in the field, grove, or mixing/loading station.
• Dilute and agitate excess solution and apply at labeled rates or uses.
• Avoid storage of pesticides near well sites.
• When triple-rinsing the pesticide container, be sure to add the rinsate to the spray mix.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT use with spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below pH 5.0 or above pH 9.0, as rapid
product degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 6.0 - 8.0 allow for optimum stability of HER11 herbicide.
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water.
2. While agitating, add the required amount of HER11 herbicide.
3. Continue agitation until the HER11 herbicide is fully dispersed, at least 5 minutes.
4. Once the HER11 herbicide is fully dispersed, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with water. HER11
herbicide should be thoroughly mixed with water before adding any other material.
5. As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners (if desired) then add the required volume of spray adjuvant. Always
add spray adjuvant last. Antifoaming agents may be used. DO NOT use with spray additives that alter the pH of the
spray solution below pH 6.0 as rapid product degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 7.0 and higher allow for
optimum stability of HER11 herbicide.
6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling will occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-agitate before
using.
7. Apply HER11 herbicide spray mixture within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
8. If HER11 herbicide and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads, pre-slurry the HER11 herbicide in
clean water prior to adding to the tank. This will prevent the tank mix partner from interfering with the dissolution of
the HER11 herbicide.
19
GRAZING
Allow at least 7 days between application and grazing of treated forage. In addition, allow at least 7 days between
application and feeding of forage from treated areas to livestock. Allow at least 30 days between application and
feeding of hay from treated areas to livestock. Harvested straw may be used for bedding and/or feed. Allow at least
45 days between application and harvesting of grain.
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
For specific application equipment, refer to the manufacturers instructions for additional information on GPA,
pressure, speed, nozzle types and arrangements, nozzle heights above the target canopy, etc.
Be sure to calibrate air or ground equipment properly before application. Select a spray volume and delivery system
that will ensure thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern with minimum drift. Use higher spray volumes to
obtain better coverage when crop canopy is dense. Avoid swath overlapping, and shut off spray booms while
starting, turning, slowing, or stopping, to avoid injury to the crop. DO NOT make applications using equipment
and/or spray volumes or during weather conditions that might cause spray to drift onto nontarget sites. For
additional information on spray drift refer to Spray Drift section of label.
Continuous agitation is required to keep HER11 herbicide in suspension.
BEFORE SPRAYING HER11 HERBICIDE
The spray equipment must be clean before HER11 herbicide is sprayed. Follow the cleanup procedures specified on
the labels of the previously applied products. If no directions are provided, follow the steps outlined in the "After
Spraying HER11 herbicide" section of this label.
AT THE END OF THE DAY
It is advised that during periods when multiple loads of HER11 herbicide are applied, at the end of each day of
spraying, the interior of the tank be rinsed with fresh water and then partially filled, and the boom and hoses flushed.
This will prevent the buildup of dried pesticide deposits which can accumulate in the application equipment.
AFTER SPRAYING HER11 HERBICIDE AND BEFORE SPRAYING CROPS
OTHER THAN WHEAT, BARLEY, OAT OR TRITICALE
To avoid subsequent injury to desirable crops, thoroughly clean all mixing and spray equipment immediately
following applications of HER11 herbicide as follows:
1. Drain tank; thoroughly rinse spray tanks, boom, and hoses with clean water. Loosen and physically remove any
visible deposits.
2. Fill the tank with clean water and 1 gal of household ammonia* (contains 3% active ingredient) for every 100 gal
of water. Flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles with the cleaning solution. Then add more water to completely fill the
tank. Circulate the cleaning solution through the tank and hoses for at least 15 min. Flush the hoses, boom, and
nozzles again with the cleaning solution, and then drain the tank.
3. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a bucket containing cleaning agent and water.
4. Repeat step 2.
5. Rinse the tank, boom, and hoses with clean water.
6. If only ammonia is used as a cleaner, the rinsate solution may be applied back to the crop(s) specified on this
label. DO NOT exceed the maximum labeled use rate. If other cleaners are used, consult the cleaner label for rinsate
disposal instructions. If no instructions are given, dispose of the rinsate on site or at an approved waste disposal
facility.
* Equivalent amounts of an alternate-strength ammonia solution or an FMC-approved cleaner can be used in the
cleanout procedure. Carefully read and follow the individual cleaner instructions. Consult your Ag dealer,
applicator, or FMC representative for a listing of approved cleaners.
Notes:
1. CAUTION: DO NOT use chlorine bleach with ammonia because dangerous gases will form. DO NOT clean
equipment in an enclosed area.
2. Steam-clean the aerial spray tanks prior to performing the above cleanout procedure to facilitate the removal of
any caked deposits.
20
3. When HER11 herbicide is tank mixed with other pesticides, all cleanout procedures for each product must be
examined and the most rigorous procedure must be followed.
4. In addition to this cleanout procedure, all precleanout guidelines on subsequently applied products must be
followed as per the individual product labels.
5. Where routine spraying practices include shared equipment frequently being switched between applications of
HER11 herbicide and applications of other pesticides to HER11 herbicide-sensitive crops during the same spray
season, dedicate a sprayer to HER11 herbicide to further reduce the chance of crop injury.
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Ground Boom Applications:
• Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the ground or crop
canopy unless making a turf, pasture, or rangeland application, in which case applicators may apply with a nozzle
height no more than 4 feet above the ground.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or
coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 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 10 miles per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Aerial Applications:
• DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater application
height is necessary for pilot safety.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or
coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade diameter for
helicopters.
• Applicators must use one-half 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 when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 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.
21
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
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide uniform coverage. 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. When applying aerially to crops, 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.
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the
shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of
an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft
smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions)
indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
WIND
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND
CONDITIONS.
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.
Handheld Technology Applications:
• Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
Boom-less Ground Applications
• Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVES
Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is used,
read and carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additives label. If using an
additive that increases viscosity, ensure that the nozzles and other application equipment will function properly with
a viscous spray solution.
Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association
(CPDA).
