USB RBSTRICTIONS
This chemical demonstrates the properties and characteristics associated
with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this chemical in
areass where soils are permeable, particularly where the groundwater is
shallow, may result in groundwater contamination. Do not apply to
coarse soils classified as sands with less than 3% organic matter (as
determined by soil tests, if not known) where depth to groundwater is 30
feet or less.
This product may not be mixed or loaded within SO feet of any wells
(included abandoned wells and drainage wells), sink holes, 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 pad or properly diked
mixing/loading areas.
Operations that involve m1x1ng, loading, rinsing, or washing of this
product into or from pesticide handling or application equipment or
containers within SO 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 washwater, and rainwater that may
fallon 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

treated fields to treat non-target crops unless at least 1/2 inch
of rainfall has occurred between application and the first
irrigation.
Do not apply this product using aerial application equipment.
Do not apply when wind conditions favor drift to non-target sites. To
minimize spray drift to non-target areas:
Use low pressure application equipment capable of producing a
large droplet spray. Do not use nozzles that produce a fine
droplet spray. Minimize drift by using sufficient spray
volume to ensure adequate coverage with large droplet size
sprays.
Keep ground driven spray boom as low as possible above the target
surface.

Always predetermine the compatibility of this product or labeled tank
mixtures of this product with water carrier or sprayable fluid
fertilizer carrier by mixing small proportional quantities in advance.
See the "STANDARD SPRAYABLE FLUID FERTILIZER COMPATIBILITY TEST" section
in this label to determine the compatibility of this product and the
labeled tank mixtures recommended for use with sprayable fluid
fertilizer carrier.
• Mix this product or labeled tank mixture of this product with the
appropriate carrier as follows:
1. Place a 20 to 3S mesh screen or wetting basket over filling port.
2. Through the screen, fill the sprayer tank one-half full with the
appropriate carriel·.
3. If a compatibility agent is necessary to improve mixing or to
prevent the formation of undesirable and unsprayable gels or
precipitates, while agitating add it to the carrier already in the
tank. Use only compatibility agents cleared by FDA for this use.
(MON 8404 Formulation Update) 10
)
Read and follow all directions for use, cautionary statements and
all other information appearing on the selected compatibility agent
label. Check for adequate agitation.
4. If a wettable powder or dry flowable eormulation is used, make a
slurry with water and add it slowly through the screen into the
tank. Continue agitation.
5. If a flowable formulation is used, add slowly through screen into
the tank. Mixing and compatibility may be improved when flowable is
pre-mixed one part flowable with one part water and added to the
tank in diluted form.
6. Add this product slowly through the screen into the tank. Mixing
and compatibility may be improved when this product is prediluted
with two parts of water and added to the tank in diluted form.
7. Complete filling the sprayer tank with carrier. If Roundup® or
Gramoxone lM Extra is used, add the required amount near the end of
the filling process. Remove hose from tank immediately after
filling to avoid siphoning back into the carrier source.
Maintain good agitation at all times until the contents of the tank are
sprayed. NOTE: If spray mixture is allowed to settle at any time,
thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before spraying
is resumed.

COMPATIBILITY TBST
Herbicides may not always mix evenly throughout a sprayable fluid
fertilizer or the components may separate too quickly to make their
combined use of practical value. This may be due to certain
characteristics of the different fluid fertilizers. A simple test using
small quantities of the compone~cs is suggested to provide compatibility
potential. The test follows:

This compatibility test is designed for 25 gallons of spray per acre
with the maximum labeled rate of herbicide. For changes in spray volume
or herbicide rate, make appropriate changes in the ingredients of the
test. Regardless of spray volume, the amount of compatibility agent
should be equal to two or three pints (two pints = 1/4 TEAspoon or 1.2
milliliters, three pints = 3/8 TEAspoon or 1.8 milliliters per pint of
sprayable fluid fertilizer) per 100 gallons of liquid fertilizer.
1. If the herbicide(s) and the sprayable fluid fertilizer are
compatible.
2. If a compatibility agent is necessary.
Five minutes after the final addition and m1x1ng, observe both jars for
the formation of large flakes, sludge, gels or other precipitates.
Observe if the herbicide(s) cannot be physically mixed with the liquid
fertilizer but remains as small oily particJes in the solution.
If incompatibility in any form described above occurs in the jar "with"
the compatibility agent added, the l1quid fertilizer and the
herbicide(s) should not be used together in the same spray tank.
If incompatibility as described above occurs in the jar "without" the
adjuvant but not in the jar "with" adjuvant, the use of a compatibility
adjuvant is recommended.
(MON 8404 Formulation Update) 13
)
)
Both jars should be allowed to stand and be observed periodically for
one-half hour: If the separate layers of liquid fertilizer and additives
can be resuspended by shaking, commercial application is possible. An
emulsifiable concentrate normally will go to the top after standing;
wettable powders will either settle to the bottom of the tank or jar, or
float to the top, depending upon the density of the fertilizers.
If the herbicide (s) is compatible with flui\'! fertilizer in the foregoing
test without having to use a compatibility agent, fluid fertilizer may
be used for the premixing. If it is not compatible without the
compatibility agent, the herbicide(s) should be premixed with water
before adding to the spray tank.

APPLICATION TIKIRG AHD KBTHODS
ROTB. Only one treatment of this product may be applied to a labeled
crop.
Barly Preplant Surface--This product and some labeled tank mixtures
of this product may be applied in no-till and other conservation tillage
systems before weeds emerge and up to 45 days before planting field corn
or silage corn. Split applications can be made 30 to 45 days prior to
planting with 60 percent of the recommended broadcast rate applied
initially and the remaining 40 percent applied at planting.
Applications made less than 30 days prior to planting can be made either
as a split or as a single application. If weeds are present at the time
of application, apply this product in tank mixture with an appropriate
contact herbicide. Observe directions for use, precautions and
restrictions on the label of the contact herbicide. During the planting
operation, be careful not to move untreated soil to the surface or move
treated soil out of the row, as weed control may be reduced.
Pre_ergeDce Surface ApplicatioD--This product and all labeled tank
mixtures may be applied to the soil surface· after planting and prior to
either crop or weed emergence. Apply within 5 days of last preplant
tillage. If weeds emerge after treatment, or if treatment is applied
more than 5 days after last preplant tillage, rotary hoe or shallowly
cultivate immediately to improve performance. Precipitation or overhead
sprinkler irrigation is required after application to move the herbicide
treatment into the weed germination zone. The amount of precipitation or
overhead sprinkler irrigation required depends on existing soil mixture,
soil type and percent organic matter content, but 1/4 to 3/4 inch is
normally adequate. Performance is improved When moisture is received
within 7 days after application and prior to weed emergence. High
intensity or excessive rainfall or excessive irrigation after
application may reduce control.
PreplaDt IDcorporatioD--This product and many of the labeled tank
mixtures may be mixed into the soil using shallow incorporation
equipment any time within 7 days prior to planting. Apply the
recommended treatment rate to the soil surface as a broadcast
application. Either existing soil moisture or subsequent precipitation
or irrigation is required to bring incorporated herbicide treatments
(MaN 8404 Formulation Update) 17

)
into contact with germinating weed seedlings. If weeds emerge after
treatment, rotary hoe or shallowly cultivate immediately to improve
performance.
l-Pass Incorporation (Surface Blend TK ): Shallowly incorporate (Surface
Blend) the treatment into the upper 1 to 2 inches of the soil. Equipment
should be operated at manufacturer's designed speed for incorporation to
ensure adequate mixing and distribution of the herbicide treatment in
the soil. Equipment design including any drag attachments must be
adequate to avoid soil ridging which may result in streaked or reduced
weed control. Soil conditions, including moisture content and crop
residue levels, must be suitable to allow thorough and uniform mixing
with the equipment used for 1-pass incorporation.
Contact Monsanto Company for additional information regarding
recommended equipment and methods for Surface Blend Application.
2-Pass Incorporation: When 2-pass incorporation is used, shallowly
incorporate the herbicide treatment into the upper 1 to 2 inches of the
soil with equipment set to work the soil NO'DEEPER THAN 4 INCHES. The
second pass must be made at an angle to and no deeper than the first
pass to ensure proper distribution of the herbicide treatment in the
soil.
Culti"atioll Illfo~tioD--Delay cultivation after application for as
long as possible unless weeds or grasses emerge. Shallowly cultivate or
rotary hoe immediately if weeds or grasses emerge. If cultivation is
necessary because of soil crusting or compaction, set equipment shallow
and minimize lateral soil movement to avoid dilution or displacement of
the herbicide treatment. If a band application is used and weeds have
emerged in the treated band, set cultivator to throw soil into the row
covering the band.

When applied as directed under the conditions described, these tank
mixtures control many emerged annual weeds, suppress many emerged
perennial weeds and give preemergence control of many annual grasses and
weeds when corn will be planted directly into a cover crop, established
sod or in previous crop residues. These tank mixtures will not control
regrowth from perpnnial weeds.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
Refer to specific product labels for crop rotation restrictions and
precautionary'statements of all products used in these tank mixtures.

recommendations relative to weed species.
Par.DDtal W • .a.--At normal application dates in minimum tillage
systems, perennial weeds may not be at the proper stage of growth for
control. See the ·GENERAL INFORMATION· section of the Roundup label for
the proper stage of growth for perennial weeds. Use of 1 to 4 quarts of
Roundup per acre in the above mixtures under these conditions provides
top kill and reduces competition from many emerged perennial grasses and
broadleaf weeds.
For emerged perennial weeds controlled see the ·WEEDS CONTROLLED·
section of the label for Roundup. To obtain control of perennial weeds,
follow recommendations on the Roundup label for stage of growth and
rate of application.
USE OF THIS MIXTURE FOR BERMUDAGRASS OR JOHNSONGRASS CONTROL IS NOT
