When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or
aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed .in
the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural
pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)), the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in
the WPS.
Pilots must use cockpits in a manner that meets the
requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard
(WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6).
User Safety Recommendations
Users should:
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum,
using tobacco, or using the toilet.
• Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside.
Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product.
Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon
as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean
clothing .
Environmental Hazards
DO NOT apply directly to water, or to areas where sur­
face water is present or to intertidal areas below the
mean high water mark. DO NOT contaminate water
when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate .
Dimethenaniid has properties that may result in ground­
water contamination. Application in areas where soils are
permeable or coarse and groundwater is near the sur­
face could result in groundwater contamination.
Dimethenaniid has properties that may result in surface
water contamination via dissolved runoff and runoff ero­
sion. Practices should be followed to minimize the
potential for dissolved runoff and/or runoff erosion.
1) Point source contamination: To prevent point
source contamination, DO NOT mix or load this or any
other pesticide product within 50 feet of wells (including
abandoned wells and drainage wells). sink holes,
perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, and natural
or impounded lakes and r('lservoirs. 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 as described below.
Mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing operations per­
formed within 50 feet of a well are allowed only when
-conducted on an impervious pad constructed to with­
stand the weight of the heaviest load that may be on or
move across the pad. The pad must be self-contained
to prevent surface water flow over or from the pad. The
pad capacity must be maintained at 110% that of the
largest pesticide container or application equipment
used on the pad and have sufficient capacity to contain
all product spills, equipment or container leaks, equip­
ment washwaters, and rainwater that may fall on the
pad. The containment capacity does not apply to vehi­
cles delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading
site. States may havein effect additional requirements
regarding wellhead setbacks and operational contain­
ment. Care must be taken when using this product to
prevent: a) back siphoning into wells, b) spills, or
c) improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mix­
tures, or rinsates. Check valves or antisiphoning devices
must be used on all mixing equipment.
2) Movement dissolved in runoff or through soil:
DO NOT apply under conditions which favor runoff.
DO NOT apply to impervious substrates such as paved
or highly compacted surfaces or frozen soils.
Groundwater contamination may occur in areas where
soils are permeable or coarse and groundwater is near
the surface. To minimize the possibility of groundwater
contamination, carefully follow rate recommendations as
affected by soil type in section II. Application
Instructions. DO NOT apply to coarse soils classified
as sand with less than 3% organic matter (as deter­
mined by soil tests, if not known) and where depth to
groundwater is 30 feet or less.
3). Movement by water erosion of treated soil:
DO NOT apply or incorporate this product through any
type of irrigation equipment nor by flood or furrow irriga­
tion. Ensure treated areas have received at least 0.5" of
rainfall before using tailwater for subsequent irrigation of
other fields.
Endangered Species Concerns
The use of any pesticide in a manner that may kill or
otherwise harm an endangered species or adversely
modify their habitat is a violation of federal law.

disposal.
Pesticide Storage: DO NOT use or store near heat or
open flame. Store in original container in a well-ventilated
area separately from fertilizer, feed, and foodstuffs. Avoid
cross-contamination with other pesticides. Groundwater
contamination may be reduced by diking and flooring of
permanent liquid bulk storage sites with an impermeable
material.
Pesticide Disposal: Pesticide wastes are acutely haz­
ardous. Improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray
mixture, or rinsate is a violation of federal law. If these
wastes cannot be disposed of according to label
instructions, contact the state agency responsible for
pesticide regulation or the Hazardous Waste representa­
tive at the nearest EPA Regional Office for guidance.
Container Disposal:
Nonrefillable Container. DO NOT reuse or refill this
container. Triple rinse or pressure rinse container (or
equivalent) promptly after emptying; then offer for recy­
cling, if available, or puncture and dispose of in a sani­
tary landfill, or by incineration, or by other procedures
approved by state and local authorities.

I. General Information
BAS 661 00 H herbicide is designed to provide pre­
emergence control of most annual grasses, many annual
'broadleaf weeds, plus burndown control of emerged
annual broadleaf weeds, and growth suppression of
many emerged perennial broadleaf vyeeds (refer to
Table 1). BAS 661 00 H provides residual control of
annual grasses, contact control of annual broad leaf
weeds, and residual control of some broad leaf weeds.
For broad spectrum broadleaf weed control,
BAS 661 00 H should be used in sequential applications
or tank mixes with other herbicides that provide addi­
tional control.
Mode of Action
BAS 661 00 H contains two herbicide active ingredi­
ents: dimethenamid and dicamba. Dimethenamid is a
root and shoot growth inhibitor that controls susceptible
germinating seedlings before they emerge from the soil.
Dicamba is readily absorbed by plants through shoot
and root uptake, translocates throughout the plant's sys­
tem, and accumulates in areas of active growth.
Dicamba interferes with the plant's growth hormones
(auxins) resulting in death of many broad leaf weeds.
Cleaning Spray Equipment
Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a .
strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner accord­
ing to the manufacturer's directions .and then triple rins­
ing the equipment before and after applying this'
product.

1 Partial control or suppression. To complement control,
BAS 661 00 H herbicide should be us'ed in tank mixes or
sequential applications with other herbicides that provide
additional control of these weed species.
2 For best control of these species use the highest rate speci-
fied by soil type. If dry conditions exist near application or
excessive rainfall occurs early in season, a postemergence
herbicide or cultivation may be required to help control
these weeds.
3 BAS 661 00 H will provide burndown control of emerged
broad leaf weeds plus early season residual control. For full
season broad leaf weed control, BAS 661 00 H should be
used in sequential applications or tank mixed with other
broad leaf herbicides.
II. Application Instructions
BAS 661 00 H is recommended for preplant surface,
preplant incorporated, pre-emergence, or early post­
emergence use in corn and preplant use in grain
sorghum. BAS 661 00 H may be applied using either
water or fluid fertilizer as the spray carrier. Use of
sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier is not recommended
after crop emergence. Additionally, BAS 661 00 H may
be impregnated on and applied with dry bulk fertilizer.
Irrigation
In irrigated areas, sprinkler irrigation may be used follow­
ing application to ensure soil activation when natural
rainfall does not occur.
Application Rate
Broadcast use rates for BAS 661 00 H when used
alone, in a tank mix, or sequential applications in corn
5
(
are given in Table 2. Use rates of this product vary by
soil type. The most accurate indicator of appropriate use
rate for BAS 661 00 H is the Cation Exchange Capacity
(CEC) of the soil to be treated. CEC values are available
in standard soil testing procedures. If CEC values are
not available, the use rate of BAS 661 00 H may be
determined using the soil texture and organic matter.
Soil texture groupings used in this label are coarse
(sand, loamy sand, sandy loam), medium (silt, silt loam,
loam, sandy clay loam), and fine (sandy clay, silty clay,
silty clay loam, clay loam, and clay). DO NOT apply to
sand-textured soil with less than 3% organic matter (as
determined by soil tests, if not known) where depth to
groundwater is 30 feet or less. To determine
BAS 661 00 H use rates by either soil CEC values or by
soil texture and organic matter, refer to Table 2. When
use rates are 'expressed in ranges, use the lower rates
for lower CEC values and use the higher rates for higher
C,EC values. If soil texture and organic matter content
are used to determine use rates, use the lower rates for
more coarsely textured soils low in organic matter and
use the higher rates for more finely textured soils that are
high in organic matter.

Managing Off-target Movement
Spray Drift
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the respon­
sibility ofthe applicator. The interaction of many equip­
ment- and weather-related factors determines the
potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower
are responsible for considering all these factors when
making decisions. It is the responsibility of the applicator
to avoid spray drift into nontarget areas.
The following drift management requirements must be
followed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial
applications to agricultural crops:
1. The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom
must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or
rotor.
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the
airstream and never be pointed downward more than
45 degrees.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they must
be observed.
The applicator should be familiar with and take into
account the following drift reduction advisory
information.
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE
The best drift management strategy and most effective
way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets
that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying
larger droplets reduces drift potential but will not prevent
drift if applications are made improperly or under unfa­
vorable environmental conditions (see WIND; TEMPER­
ATURE AND HUMIDITY; and TEMPERATURE
INVERSIONS).
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the high­
est practiyal spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated
flows produce larger droplets.
• Pressure - DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufactur­
er's recommended pressures. For many nozzle types,
lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher
flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles
instead of increasing pressure.
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of
nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the
s'pray is released parallel to the airstream produces
larger droplets than other orientations and is recom­
mended practice. Significant deflection from the hori­
zontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift
potential.
• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for'
the intended application. With most nozzle types, nar­
rower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider
using low-drift nozzles. Solid-stream nozzles oriented
straight back produce the largest droplets and the
lowest drift. DO NOT use nozzles producing a mist
droplet spray.
BOOM LENGTH
For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom
length to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length
may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.

Making applications at the lowest possible height (air­
craft, ground-driven spray boom) that is safe and practi­
cal reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and
wind. Applications should not be madeat a height
greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest plants
unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety.
SWATH ADJUSTMENT
When applications are made with a crosswind, the
swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the
upwind and downwind edges of the field, the applicator
must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the
path of the application equipment (e.g. aircraft, ground)
upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase with
increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller droplets,
etc.).
6
I
WIND
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 3 to 10
mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and
equipment type, determine drift potential at any given
speed. Application should be avoided below 3 mph due
to variable wind direction and high inversion potential.
NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and
how they affect spray drift.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up
equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for
evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when
conditions are both hot and dry.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Applications should not occur during temperature inver­
sion because drift potential is high. Temperature inver­
sions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small
suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud,
that can move in unpredictable directions due to the
light, variable winds common during inversions.
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperatures with altitude and are common on nights
with limited cloud cover and light-to-no wind. They begin
to form as the sun sets and often continue into the
morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground
fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be
identified by the movement of smoke from a ground
source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers
and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low
wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that
moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good
vertical air mixing.
SENSITIVE AREAS
Spray drift from applying this product may result in dam­
age to sensitive plants adjacent to the treatment area.
Only apply this product when the potential for drift to
these and other adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential
areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or
endangered species, or nontarget crops or plants) is
minimal. DO NOT apply when the following conditions
exist that increase the likelihood of spray drift from
intended targets: high or gusty winds, high tempera­
tures, low humidity, temperature inversions.
WIND EROSION
Avoid treating powdery, dry or light sandy soils when
conditions are favorable for wind erosion. Under these
conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by
rainfall or irrigation.
Air Application
Water Volume: Use 2 or more gallons of water per
acre. The actual minimum spray volume per acre is
determined by the spray equipment used. Adequate
spray volume must be used to provide accurate and uni­
form distribution of spray particles over the treated area
and to avoid drift of spray particles to nontarget areas.
Application Equipment: Use nozzle screens no finer
than 50 mesh when spraying tank mixtures with wet­
table powder or flowable formulations.
(
Special Directions for Aerial Application
To obtain uniform coverage and to avoid drift hazards,
follow these guidelines:
• DO NOT apply BAS 661 00 H herbicide by aircraft
when wind is blowing more than 10 mph. Use coarse
sprays (larger droplets) as they are less likely to drift.
• DO NOT apply BAS 661 00 H by air if sensitive
species are within 200 feet downwind.
The applicator must follow the most restrictive use cau­
tions to avoid drift hazards, including those found in this
labeling as well as applicable state and local regulations
and ordinances.
Ground Application (Banding)
When applying BAS 661 00 H by banding, determine
the amount of herbicide and water volume needed using
the following formula:
Bandwidth in inches
Row width in inches x
Broadcast Banding herbicide
rate per acre- rate per acre
Bandwidth in inches x Broadcast _ Banding water
Row width in inches volume per acre - volume per acre
Ground Application (Broadcast)
Water Volume: Use 2 or more gallons of water per
acre. The actual minimum spray volume per acre is
determined by the spray equipment used. Adequate
spray volume must be used to provide accurate and uni­
form distribution of spray particles over the treated area
and to avoid drift of spray particles to nontarget areas.
Application Equipment: Use nozzle screens no finer
than 50 mesh when spraying tank mixtures with wet­
table powder or flowable formulations.
Ground Application (Dry Bulk Fertilizer)
BAS 661 00 H may be impregnated or coated onto dry
bulk granular fertilizer carriers for preplant surface,
preplant incorporated, or pre-emergence applications.
Impregnation or coating may be conducted by either the
in-plant bulk system or the on-board system. When
impregnated onto some dry fertilizer blends,
BAS 661 00 H may exhibit a strong odor. Perform the
mixing operation in well-ventilated areas.
BAS 661 00 H may also be applied in herbicide tank
mixes where the tank mix companion product is also
registered for these application systems. Individuals or
agents selling BAS 661 00 H in these application sys­
tems are responsible for following all state and local reg­
ulations regarding fertilizer and herbicide blending.
Addition of a drying agent may be necessary if the fertile
izer and herbicide blend is too wet for uniform applica­
tion due to high humidity, high urea concentration, or
low fertilizer use rate. Slowly add the drying agent to the
blend until a flowable mixture is obtained. Drying agents
are not recommended for use with on-board impregna­
tion systems.
Under some conditions, fertilizer impregnated with
BAS 661 00 H may clog air tubes or deflector plates on
pneumatic application systems. Mineral oil may be
added to BAS 661 00 H before blending with fertilizer to
reduce plugging. DO NOT use drying agents when
mineral oil is used. To avoid separation of
BAS 661 00 H and mineral oil mixes in cold tempera­
tures, either keep mixture heated or agitated prior to
blending with fertilizer. Mineral oil may be used at in­
plant blending stations or on-board injection systems.
Apply 200-750 pounds of the fertilizer and herbicide
blend per acre. Application must be made uniformly to
the soil to prevent possible crop injury and offer satisfac­
tory weed control. Impregnated fertilizer spread at half
rate and overlapped to obtain a full rate will offer a more
uniform distribution. A shallow (1-2") incorporation is
desirable for improved weed control. Deeper incorpora­
tion may result in unsatisfactory weed control.
Formula to determine the herbicide rate when
using dry bulk fertilizer applications:
Fluid ounces or pounds
of herbicide per acre x
Pounds of fertilizer per
acre
Incompatible Mixtures
Fluid ounces or
2,000 = pounds of herbicide
per ton of fertilizer
DO NOT impregnate BAS 661 00 H or BAS 661 00 H
mixes on ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodi­
um nitrate fertilizers or fertilizer blends. Single super­
phosphate (0-20-0) and triple superphosphate (0-46-0)
may be impregnated only with BAS 661 00 H alone.
III. Additives
An agriculturally approved surfactant, crop oil, or
sprayable fluid fertilizer or ammonium sulfate may be
added to the spray mix to improve postemergence
weed control, particularly on drought-stressed weeds.
BAS 661 00 H application may be made using either
water or fluid fertilizer as the spray carrier. To improve
burndown of emerged weeds, surfactants and/or low
rate fertilizer (28%,30%, or 32% UAN or ammonium
sulfate), may be used with BAS 661 00 H or
BAS 661 00 H tank mixes applied preplant, preemer­
gence, or earlypostemergence to the crop. Crop oil
concentrate may be used with BAS 661 00 H in pre­
plant or pre-emergence application but is not recom­
mended for use after crop emergence.
Oil Concentrate
Crop oil concentrates may be used prior to crop emer-
. gence but are not recommended after crop emergence
unless specified for a particular tank mix.
7
A crop oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum
or vegetable oil base and must meet all of the following
criteria:
• be non phytotoxic,
• contain only EPA-exempt ingredients,
• provide good mixing quality in the jar test, and
• be successful in local experience.
The exact composition of suitable products will vary;
however, vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates
should contain emulsifiers to provide good mixing quali­
ty. Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more satis­
factory than unrefined vegetable oils.
Nitrogen Source'
• Urea ammonium nitrate (UAN): Use 2-4 quarts of
UAN (commonly referred to as 28%,30%, or 32%
nitrogen solution) per acre. DO NOT use brass or alu­
. minumnozzles when spraying UAN.
(
J
• Ammonium sulfate (AMS): AMS at 2.5 pounds per
acre may be substituted for UAN. Use high quality
AMS (spray grade) to avoid plugging of nozzles. Other
sources of nitrogen are not as effective as those men­
tioned. BASF does not recommend applying AMS if
applied in less than 10 gallons per acre because of
potential problems with precipitation in reduced vol­
umes. Use AMS only if it has been demonstrated to be
successful in local experience.
Nonionic Surfactant
Use 1 pint of an 80% active nonionic spray surfactant
per 100 gallons of water. For certain weeds, a higher
spray surfactant rate is recommended.
Table 3. Additive Rate Per Acre
Additive Rate Per Acre
Nonionic Surfactant 1-2 pints per 100 gallons
AMS 2.5 pounds
UAN Solution 2-4 quarts
Crop Oil Concentrate 1 quart*
* See manufacturer's label for specific use rates.

\\ 4llD
Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop
injury may result from mixing BAS 661 00 H with other
pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or miti­
cides), additives, or fertilizers. BASF does not recom­
mend using tank mixes other than those listed on BASF
labeling. Local agricultural authorities may be a source of
information when using other than BASF recommended
tank mixes.
Compatibility Test for Mix Components
Before mixing components, always perform a compati­
bility jar test.
For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups
(800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates
accordingly. Only use water from the intended source at
the source temperature.
Add components in the sequence indicated in the
Mixing Order using 2 teaspoons for each pound or
1 teaspoon for each pint of recommended label rate per
acre.
Always cap the jar and invert 1 0 cycles between com-
ponent additions. .
When the components have all been added to the jar, let
the solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solution
for uniformity and stability. The spray solution should not
have free oil on the surface, nor fine particles that pre­
cipitate to the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. If
the spray solution is not compatible, repeat the compati­
bility test with the addition of a suitable compatibility
agent. If the solution is then compatible, use the
compatibility agent as directed on its label. If the solution
is still incompatible, DO NOT mix the ingredients in the
same tank.
Mixing Order
1) Water. Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean
sprayer tank three-quarters full of clean water.
2) Agitation. Maintain constant agitation throughout
mixing and application.
3) Products in PVA bags. Place any product contained
in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait
until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved
and the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank
before continuing.
4) Water-dispersible products (such as dry flowables,
wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or
suspo-emulsions). If an inductor is used, rinse it
thoroughly after the component has been added.
5) Water-soluble products. If an inductor is used, rinse
it thoroughly after the component has been added.
6) Emulsifiable concentrates (such as BAS 6'61 00 H
herbicide, oil concentrate when applicable). If an
inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after the compo­
nent has been added.
7) Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN
when applicable). If an inductor is used, rinse it thor­
oughly after the component has beel1 added.
8) Remaining quantity of water.
Maintain constant agitation during application.

v. Restrictions and Limitations
• Maximum seasonal use rate: DO NOT apply more than a total of 38 fluid ounces of BAS 661 00 H herbi­
cide per acre, per crop.
• Preharvest Interval (PHI): Refer to section VI. Crop-Specific Information for crop-specific preharvest intervals
and feeding and grazing restrictions.
• Restricted Entry Interval (REI): 48 hours
• The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation prohibits use in Long Island, NY.
• Crop Rotation Restriction:
- If the crop treated with BAS 661 00 H is lost to adverse weather or for other reasons, the area treated may be
replanted to corn immediately or grain sorghum 2 weeks or more after application. If the original BAS 661 00 H
treatment was broadcast, DO NOT make a second application of BAS 661 00 H. If corn or grain sorghum are
replanted; DO NOT apply Clarity®, Banvel®, or Marksman® herbicides until after emergence.
- If the original application was banded and the second crop is planted in the row middles, a second band appli­
cation may be applied.
- Following BAS 661 00 H application and an accumulation of ,1" or more of rainfall or overhead irrigation, soy­
beans may be planted after 14 days or more for rates up to 32 fluid ounces per acre and 21 days or more for
rates above 32 fluid ounces per acre and up to 38 fluid ounces per acre. Soybeans should not be planted in the
same year as BAS 661 00 H applications in geographic areas with average annual rainfall of less than 25".
- Fall-seeded cereals may be planted 4 or more months after a spring application of BAS 661 00 H.
- There are no rotational crop restrictions in the spring following the previous year's application of BAS 661 00 H.
• Rainfast period: Rainfall or irrigation occurring within 4 hours after postemergence applications may reduce the
effectiveness of BAS 661 00 H in controlling emerged broad leaf weeds.
• Stress: DO NOT apply to crops under stress such as stress due to lack of moisture, hail damage, flooding, herbi­
cide injury, mechanical injury, or widely fluctuating air temperatures, as crop injury may result.

VI. Crop-Specific Information
Corn (Field, Pop, and Seed)
BAS 661 00 H herbicide may be used in field corn
(grown for grain, silage, or seed) and popcorn. Before
applying to seed corn or popcorn, verify with your local
seed company (supplier) the BAS 661 00 H selectivity
on your inbred line or variety to avoid potential injury to
sensitive inbreds or varieties.
BAS 661 00 H is not registered for use in sweet corn.
BAS 661 00 H may be applied preplant surface, pre­
plant incorporated, pre-emergence, or early postemer­
gence (up to 8" tall) to corn.
Corn may be grazed or fed to livestock 40 days or more
after BAS 661 00 H application.
To avoid risk of injury from preplant or pre-emergence
application, corn must be planted so at least 1.5" of soil
cover the seed.
Preplant or Pre-emergence Applications in
Minimum or No-Till Systems
Use for residual control of annual grasses, early season
residual control of annual broadleaf weeds, postemer­
gence control of emerged annual broadleaf weeds, and
postemergence suppression of emerged perennial
broadleaf weeds. BAS 661 00 H may be applied alone'
or in tank mixes up to 30 days before planting, during
planting, or following planting and before crop emer­
gence.
When making early preplant applications (15-30 days
prior to planting) use the highest rate specified for the
specific soil type. Early preplant applications are not
intended for use on coarse~textured soils or in areas
where average annual rainfall (or rainfall + irrigation) typi­
cally exceeds 40". Applications on coarse-textured soils
made within 7 days of planting may result in temporary
crop injury. Crop recovery should occur within 7-14
days.
Tank mixes with postemergence herbicides such as
Roundup Ultra® (glyphosate), Touchdown® (sulfosate),
or Gramoxone® Extra (paraquat), must be used when
grasses are emerged at the time of application.
When planting into a legume sod (e.g., alfalfa or clover),
or for added control of dandelion or plantain, 2,4-0 at
0.25-0.5 pounds of a.i. per acre may be tank mixed with
BAS 66100 H.
Preplant or Pre-emergence Applications in
Conventional or Reduced Tillage Systems
Use BAS 661 00 H for residual control of annual grass­
es and early-season residual control of annual broad leaf
weeds. Broadcast the treatment uniformly to the soil
surface before or after planting and before crop emer­
gence. Rainfall, sprinkler irrigation, or mechanical incor­
poration after application is required to move this
product into the upper soil surface where weed seeds
germinate. If adequate rainfall or irrigation does not
occur and weed seedling emergence begins, a shallow
cultivation or rotary hoeing will improve performance. If
BAS 661 00 H is mechanically incorporated into the soil,
10
use equipment capable of providing shallow incorpora­
tion (maximum of 1-2" depth).
Streaking or deep incorporation may result in reduced
weed control or crop injury.This application should only
be mad,e on medium- or fine"textured soils that contain
2.5% or greater organic matter or CEC of 15 or greater.
Early Postemergence Applications in All Tillage
Systems
BAS 661 00 H may be used in early postemergence
(spike up to 8" tall corn). Application must be made prior
to grass seedling emergence or in a tank mix with prod­
ucts that control emerged grasses.
Sequential Applications of BAS 661 00 H
BAS 661 00 H may be used in split application pro­
grams where applications are made as part of the meth­
ods described above. If applications are less than 2
weeks apart, the total BAS 661 00 H rate used must
not exceed the maximum rate given for each specific
soil type. If applications are 2 weeks or more apart, a
total BAS 661 00 H use rate of up to 38 fluid ounces
per acre per year may be used on any soil type. .
Corn Tank Mixes and Sequential Uses
BAS 661 00 H may be tank mixed or applied sequen­
tially in corn with one or more of the following herbicide

Rate Per Acre
When tank mixing, applications immediately
following extreme day or night temperature
fluctuations or applications when daytime
temperatures DO NOT exceed 50° F may·
result in decreased weed control or crop
injury. Delay application until the tempera­
tures warm and both weeds and crop
resume normal growth.
Tank mixes with these products that contain
dicamba must not exceed a total combined
rate of 0.50 pounds of dicamba acid equiva­
lent per acre (0.25 pound on coarse-textured
soils). Up to 2 applications of BAS 661 00 H
herbicide may be made during a growing
season. Sequential applications of these
products must be separated by a minimum
of 2 weeks unless the combined rate is less
than 0.5 pounds of dicamba acid equivalent
per acre, (0.25 pounds on coarse-textured
soils) and corn is 8" tall or less and must not
exceed a combined total of 0.75 pounds
dicamba acid equivalent per acre for in-crop
use.
Sorghum (grain)
All BAS 661 00 H applications must only be made to
sorghum seed that has been properly treated by the
seed company with an approved chloroacetamide herbi­
cide safener or severe injury may occur.
BAS 661 00 H may be. applied 15-30 days prior to
planting in minimum tillage or no-tillage production sys­
tems for burndown of emerged and actively growing
annual broadleaf weeds and residual control of grass
weeds.
DO NOT apply to grain sorghum after crop emergence.
When grass weeds are present at the time of applica­
tion, tank mixes with postemergence herbicides such as
Cyclone®, Gramoxone® Extra, or Roundup Ultra®
must be used. Refer to Table 2 for sorghum use rates.
Under high soil moisture or cool conditions,
BAS 661 00 H application may cause temporary stunt­
ing or leaf wrapping of sorghum. However, sorghumwill
normally outgrow these symptoms in 10-14 days.
Crop-Specific Restrictions and Limitations
DO NOT graze or feed treated sorghum or silage prior
to mature grain stage.
DO NOT apply BAS 661 00 H to sorghum grown for
seed production.
BAS 661 00 H is not registered for use on sweet or for­
age sorghum.
Make no more than one application per growing season.
For sorghum produced under irrigation, use a minimum
of 28 fluid ounces per acre.
DO NOT apply on coarse-textured soils with less than
1.5% organic matter.
