APPLICATION INFORMATION - ALL USES
• DuPont™ SYNCHRONY® STS® DF berbicide is a
dispersible granule formulation which readily dissolves in
water .
• SYNCHRONY® STS® DF may be used in conventional,
no-till, or conservation tillage soybean production.
TIming To Crop Stage
SYNCHRONY® STS® DF, for in-season use, may be
applied any time after the first trifoliate has opened but no
later than 60 days before soybean maturity,
• SYNCHRONY® STS® DF, for burndown use, may be
applied up to 30 days before planting, or prior to soybean
emergence after planting.
2
Timing To Weeds
Apply SYNCHRONY@ STS", OF when weeds are young
and actively growing (after the first true leaves have
expanded, but before the weeds exceed the size indicated
below),
Applications made to weeds larger than the sizes indicated
below, or to weeds lmder stress, may result in unsatisfactory
control.
Applications made after July 15 may result in less than
satiSfactory weed control due to the large sizes of the weeds
and increased weather stress.
Tank Mix Restrictions
When tank mixing SYNCHRONY® STS® OF with any other
approved soybean pesticide, always read and follow all use
directior", restrictiens and precautions of both SYNCHRONY®
STS® OF and the tank mix partner(s), When tank mixing, the
most restrictive labeling applies.
Cultivation
Do not cultivate within 7 days of application, Cultivation
may put weeds under stress by pruning roots, thus
diminishing control.
Cultivation approximately 14 days after application will help
control suppressed weeds,

Precautions for 0.25 oz SYNCHRONY® STS® DF uses
• A temporary crop response may occur following an
application of SYNCHRONY® STS® OF to soybeans not
designated "STS" in the variety name.
• Applications rrude when the crop and weeds are under stress
from moisture. cold, heat, high humidity, disease, insect
pressure and prior herbicide stress may result in excessive
crop response .md,'or reduced weed control effectiveness.
• Do not tankmi' "Poast Plus" with 0.25 ovacre OuPont™
SY~CHRO"y;l: STS® OF unless the soybean is designated
as an "STS" variety.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
I. Fill the tank 14 to 1/3 full of water.
2. While agitating, add the required amount of SYNCHRONY®
STS®OF.
3. Continue adequate agitation.
4. SYNCHROI\-Y® STS® DF should be thoroughly mixed
with water In the spray tank before adding any otber
matenaL As the tank is filling, add (in order): other
herbicide(s}, the required spray adjuvant, and the nitrogen
fertilizer where required.
5. Apply SYNCHRONY® STS® OF spray preparation within
24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
6. If the mixture has settled, thoroughly reagitate before using.
APPLICATION EQUIPMENT
Ground Application
(See Also Spray Drift Management)
BroadcDSl App6clllion
Postemergence in scybeans, use a minimwn of 10 gal water
per acre. Under heavy weed pressure or dense crop foliage,
increase minimwo spray volwoe to 15·25 gal per acre.
Use flat fan nozzles at 25-60 psi for SYNCHRONY@ STS®
OF applications.
For bumdown applications of existing vegetation, flat fan
nozzles and a minimum of20 gallons per acre are
recommended sc as to thoroughly wet the foliage to be burned
down.
Do not use flood, rain drop, whirl chamber, or controlled
droplet applicator (COA) type nozzles. Unacceptable crop
injury, excessive spray drift, or poor weed control may result
For proper spray coverage adjust the boom and nozzle height
according to the specifications listed by the nozzle
manufacturer.
Band Appliclllion
Because band applicators spray a narrower area than broadcast
applicators, use proportionately less spray sclution for band
applications.
Carefully calibrate the band applicator to not exceed the
labeled rate.
Flat fan nozzles are recommended.
Carefully follow the nozzle manufacturer's instructions for
nozzle orientation, distance of the nozzles from the crop and
weeds, spray volwnes, calibration, and spray pressure for band
applications.
For additional information on row banders, see DuPont

spray distribution and maximum coverage at 3·5 gal per acre .
Use a minimum of 3 gal water per acre. Under heavy weed
pressure or dense crop foliage, increase the minimum spray
volwne to 5 gal per acre.
Do not apply during a temperature inversion, when winds are
gusty, or when other conditions could produce poor coverage
and/or off· target spray movement.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
SYNCHRONY® STS® OF rapidly inhibits the growth of
susceptible weeds. Leaves of susceptIble plants yellow 3·5 days
after application, followed, in controlled plants, by the death of
the growing point SYNCHRONY® STS® OF will provide
complete control of susceptible weeds in 7·21 days. Suppressed
plants may remain green but will be stunted and noncompetitive.
Stress affects some weeds, such as pigweed, more than others.
Delay application until stress passes and weeds start to grow
again.
Severe stress (drought, disease, insect damage, or nutrient
deficiency such as iron chlorosis) following application may also
result in poor weed control.
Do not apply SYNCHRONY® STS® OF if rain is expected
within
I hour or weed control may decrease.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SOIL PH
Soil pH varies greatly, even within the same field. pH variations
as much as 2 pH units are common. Composite soil samples
taken across an entire field, such as those ~mples taken for soil
fertility recommendations, may not detect areas of high pH. Sub­
sampling is recommended for areas likely to have pH values
higher than the field average. The following is a non-inclusive
list of potential high pH areas where subsampling is
recommended.
Where different soil types are evident within a field, sample
soil types separately.
Where conditions vary within a field, sample areas separately,
such as:
- areas bordered by limestone gravel roads,
- river bottoms subject to flooding,
- low areas in hardpan soils where evaporative ponds
may occur,
- eroded hillsides,
- along drain tile lines, and
- areas where drainage ditch spoil has been spread.
Where lime has not been deeply incorporated, soil may exhIbit
significantly higher pH values in the upper 3 inches of soil.
Composite soil samples taken at a 6-8 inch depth may not
reflect the elevated pH near the surface. In these cases shallow
sampling, the upper 3 inches, is advised.
Determine soil pH by laboratory analysis using a I: I soil:water
suspension.
SPRAYER PREPARATION AND CLEANUP
Prior to application of DuPont™ SYNCHRONY® STS®
DF, start with clean, well maintained application equipment.
Immediately following application, thoroughly clean all
application equipment. Postponing action, even for a few
hours, only makes effective cleanup more difficult. Failure to
clean spraying equipment thoroughly may result in injury to
subsequently sprayed crops.
When spraying multiple loads ofSYNCHRONY® STS® DF
over an extended period of time, rinse the equipment with
clean water at the end of the day. Leave water in the equipment
overnight to prevent deposits from drying on surfaces.
When applications of SYNCHRONY® STS® DF are
completed and prior to using the sprayer and associated
equipment for other products or for crops other than soybeans,
thoroughly clean the equipment using the procedure below.
STEP I. Drain spray equipment. Thoroughly rinse sprayer, and
flush hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water.
Loosen and physically remove visible deposits.
STEP 2. Fill the sprayer with clean water and add household
ammonia (one gallon of 3% active for every 100
gallons of water) or correct amount of a DuPont
approved cleaner'. Flush hoses, boom and nozzles.
Tum off the boom and top off the tank with clean
water. Circulate through the spraying system for IS
minutes. Flush the hoses, boom and nozzles with the
cleaning solution. Drain the tank.
STEP 3. Remove and clean nozzle, screens and strainers in a
bucket of fresh cleaner and water.
STEP 4. Repeat STEP 2.
8
STEP 5. Thoroughly rinse the sprayer. hoses, boom and
noutes with clean water, several times.
Clean al1 other associated application equipment. Take all
necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. Do not
clean near wells, water sources or near desirable vegetation.
Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local
regulations.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
The interaction of many equipment and weather-related
factors determines the potential for spray drift. The
ap~)liCdtor i,,, f(sponsihle for considering all thes,'O factors
wben making application decisions.
A VOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF THE APPLICATOR.
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply
large droplets (> 150 - 200 microns). The best drift
management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that
provide sufficient coverage and control. The presence of
sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and
pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift
control and coverage. APPLYING LARGER DROPLETS
REDUCES DRIFT POTENTIAL, BUT WILL NOT
PREVENT DRIFT IF APPLICATIONS ARE MADE
IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS! See Wind,
Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Invenions
sections of this label.
Controlling Droplet Size· General Techniques
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest
practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows
produce larger droplets.
Pnssure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended
for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and
does not improve canopy penetration. WHEN HIGHER
FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE A HIGHER­
CAPACITY NOZZLE INSTEAD OF INCREASING
PRESSURE.
• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the
intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower
spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low­
drift nozzles.
Controlling Droplet Size· Aircraft
• Number of Nozzles· Use the minimwn number of nozzles
with the highest flow rate that provide uniform coverage.
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is
emitted backwards, parallel to the airstream will produce
larger droplets than other orientations.
Nozzle Type - Solid stream nozzles (such as disc and core
with swirl plate removed) oriented straight back produce
larger droplets than other nozzle types.
Boom Length - The boom length should not exceed 3/4 of
the wing or rotor length - longer booms increase drift
potential.
Application Height - Application more than lOft above
the canopy increases the potential for spray drift.
-----_. __ ._- --
BOOM HEIGHT
Setting the boom at the lowest labeled height (if specified)
which provides unifonn coverage reduces the exposure of
.iroplets to evaporation and wind. For ground equipment, the
boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal
oounce.
WIND
Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph
(due to inversion potential) or mOre than 10 mph. However,
many factors, including droplet size and equipment type
determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID
GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDITIONS.
~ote: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and
bow they affect spray drift.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, set up
equipment to produce larger droplets to reduce effects of
evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion.
Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which
causes small suspended droplets to remain close to the
ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud.
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form
as the sun sets and often continue into the moming. Their
presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is
not present, inversions can also be identified by the
movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft
smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a
concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an
inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly
dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the
effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the
applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift and
not interfering with uniform deposition of the product.
AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLASn
FIELD CROP SPRAYERS
Air assisted field crop sprayers carry droplets to the target via
a downward directed air stream. Some may reduce the
potential for drift, but if a sprayer is unsuitable for the
application and/or set up improperly, high drift potential can
result. It is the responsibility of the applicator to determine
that a sprayer is suitable for the intended application, is
configured properly, and that drift is not occurring.
Note: Air assisted field sprayers can affect product
performance by affecting spray coverage and canopy
penetration. Consult the application equipment section of
this label to determine if use of an air assisted sprayer is
recommended.
9
AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLASn
TREE AND VINE SPRAYERS
Air assisted tree and vine sprayers carry droplets into the
canopy of trees and vines via a radially or laterally directed
air stream. These sprayers are not suitable for applying
herbicides.
In addition to the general drift management principles
already described, the following specific practices will
further reduce the potential for drift.:
Adju.st deflectors and aiming devices so that spray is only
directed into the canopy.
Block off upward pointed nozzles when there is no
overhanging canopy.
Use only enough air volume to penetrate the canopy and
provide good coverage.
• Do nol allow spray to go beyond the edge of the cultivated
area. Spray the outside row only from outside the
planting.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
"""riot" ··:e~1i.ttl'(Or1iaiVes1l~J~
.~L~I:,y)~~~~,,~tf'-~~4i;;.i'i~4i~~
Injury to or loss of desirable trees or vegetation may result from
failure to observe the following:
Do not apply DuPontr .. SYNCHRONY® STS® OF or drain
or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants, 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, tennis courts or
similar areas,
Many crops are sensitive to SYNCHRONY® STS® DF. All
direct or indirect contact (such as spray drift) with crops other
than soybeans should be avoided.
Thoroughly clean all application equipment immediately after
use and prior to spraying crops other than soybeans.
INFORMATION ON RESISTANT WEEDS
When herbicides with the same mode of action are used
repeatedly over several years to control the same weed species in
the same field, naturaIIy-<JCcurning resistant weed biotypes may
survive a correctly applied herbicide treatment, propagate, and
become dominant in that field. These resistant weed biotypes
may not be adequately controlled. Cultural practices such as
tillage, preventing weed escapes from going to seed, and using
herbicides with different modes of action within and between
crop seasons can aid in delaying the proliferation and possible
dominance of herbicide resistant weed biotypes.
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
DuPont recommends the use of Integrated Pest Management
(IPM) programs to control pe;ts. This product may be used
as part of an Integrated Pest \lanagement (IPM) program
which can include biological, cultural, and genetic practices
aimed at preventing economic pest damage. Application of
this product should be based 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 detenmined action
thresholds. Consult your state cooperative extension service,
professional consultants or other qualified authorities to
detennine appropriate action treatment threshold levels for
treating specific pestJerop or site systems in your area.
