Mode of Action
Poast Plus affects lipid synthesis by inhibition of Acetyl
CoA Carboxylase (ACCase) in plants. It belongs to herbi-
cide mode-of-action Group 1. Lipids are an important
5 [Page 6 of 34]
component in cell division and plant growth. If plant cells
cannot divide, the plant will die.
Poast Plus® herbicide rapidly enters the target grass
weed through its foliage and moves throughout the plant.
Effects range from slowing or stopping growth (typically
within 2 days) to foliage reddening and leaf tip burn. Foliage
burnback may occur later. Symptoms are typically
observed within 3 weeks of application of Poast Plus,
depending on environmental conditions.
Crop Tolerance
Ail crops listed on this label are tolerant to Poast Plus at all
stages of growth.
Herbicide Resistance
Repeated use of Poast Plus or other Group 1 herbicides
may lead to the selection of naturally occurring grass weed
biotypes with resistance to Group 1 herbicides. If poor
herbicide performance cannot be attributed to adverse
weather conditions or improper application methods, a
resistant biotype may be present. Consult your local BASF
Corporation representative or Cooperative Extension agent
for assistance.
Cultivation
DO NOT cultivate within 5 days before or 7 days after
applying Poast Plus. Cultivating 7 days or more after
application may help provide season-long control.
Spray Drift Management
• Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsi-
bility of the applicator.
• DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond the
area intended for application.
• Apply only when the wind speed is 10 mph or less.
NOTE: For all nonaerial applications, wind speed must
be measured at the application site on the upwind side
immediately before application.
• Conditions that may contribute to drift include spray
droplet size, spray nozzle/pressure combinations, wind
speed and direction, temperature and humidity, tempera-
ture inversions, etc.
• All aerial and ground application equipment must be
properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate
carriers.
• Contact your Cooperative Extension agent for spray drift
prevention guidelines specific to your area.
Spray Drift Reduction Advisory Information
Information on Droplet Size
The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest
droplet size that provides sufficient coverage and control
and is consistent with acceptable efficacy. 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 Inversions sections of this
label).
6 [Page 7 of 34]
Controlling Droplet Size
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest
practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows
produce larger droplets. Use a minimum of 5 gallons of
water per acre. If grass weed foliage or crop canopy is
dense, increase water volume to a least 10 gallons of
water per acre.
• Pressure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended
for the nozzle and DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufac-
turer's recommended pressures. Higher pressure reduces
droplet size but does not improve canopy penetration.
When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate
nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of noz-
zles that provide uniform coverage.
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so spray is
released backward parallel to the airstream produces
larger droplets than other orientations. Significant deflec-
tion from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase
drift potential.
• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type designed for the
intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower
spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using
low-drift nozzles. Solid-stream or straight-stream nozzles
oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and
lowest drift. Apply only as a medium or coarse spray
(ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of
300 microns or greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.
• 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.
• Application Height - Applications should not be made
at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the
largest plants, unless a greater height is required for air-
craft safety. Making applications at the lowest height
possible reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and
wind.
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 compen-
sate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the
aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should
increase with increasing drift potential (e.g., higher wind,
smaller droplets).
Wind
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 to
10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and
equipment type, determine drift potential at any given
speed. Application must be avoided if wind speed is below
2 mph because of variable wind direction and high inver-
sion 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
Low humidity and high temperatures increase the evapora-
tion of spray droplets, increasing the likelihood of spray
drift. If applications are made in low humidity, set up the
application equipment to produce larger droplets to com-
pensate for evaporation; however, droplets should remain
in the medium droplet size category. Droplet evaporation is
most severe when conditions are both hot and dry.
Temperature Inversions
Applications must not occur during a temperature inversion
because drift potential is high. If inversion conditions are
suspected, consult with local weather services before mak-
ing an application. Temperature inversions restrict vertical
air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to
remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in
unpredictable directions because of 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 genera-
tor. 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
The pesticide must only be applied when the potential for
drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bod-
ies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered
species, or nontarget crops) is minimal and when wind is
blowing away from sensitive areas.
Tank Mixing Information
Poast Plus® herbicide is a broad-spectrum,
postemergence herbicide for selective control of annual
and perennial grass weeds. For broadleaf weed control,
Poast Plus should be used in combination with, or in
sequence with, effective broadleaf herbicides approved for
use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limita-
tions and directions for use on all product labels in a tank
mix. Always follow the most restrictive label use directions.
Refer to the Use-specific Information section of this
label for tank mixing restrictions.
Physical incompatibility, reduced grass weed control, or
crop injury may result from mixing Poast Plus with other
pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or miti-
cides), additives, or fertilizers not recommended on this
label.
Before mixing components, always perform a compatibility
test in a quart-size jar. Add components in the same order
as listed in the Mixing Order section of this label.
Compatibility Test for Tank Mix Components
1. For a 20 gallons per acre spray volume, start with
3.3 cups (800 mL) of water from the intended source at
the source temperature. For other spray volumes, adjust
rates accordingly. For each dry product, add 2 tea-
spoons per pound of product per acre. For each liquid
product, add 1 teaspoon per pint of product per acre.
2. Always cap the jar and invert 10 times between compo-
nent additions.
3. When the components have all been added to the jar, let
the solution stand for 15 minutes.
4. Evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. The
spray solution should not have free oil on the surface;
fine particles that precipitate to the bottom; or a thick
(clabbered) texture. DO NOT use any spray solution that
could clog spray nozzles.
Additives
To achieve consistent postemergence grass weed control
with Poast Plus, always use a crop oil concentrate (COG)
or methylated/modified seed oil (MSO) as directed in
Table 3. In addition, ammonium sulfate (AMS) or urea
ammonium nitrate (UAN) will enhance activity on certain
grass weed species in certain crops (refer to the Use-
specific Information section).
NOTE: Using Poast Plus with adjuvants at temperature
above 90° F (or anytime the temperature exceeds 100° F
regardless of the humidity) and relative humidity at or above
60% may result in injury to many vegetable crops.
Consult your.BASF Corporation representative or
Cooperative Extension agent for more information on the
use of additives.

Nitrogen Source
Add nitrogen to COG or MSO to improve grass weed con-
trol for species as listed in Table 4, Table 5, and Table 6.
Urea Ammonium Nitrate
(28%, 30%, or 32% nitrogen solution)
• UAN may be used in addition to COG to improve grass
weed control.
• DO NOT use brass or aluminum nozzles when spraying
UAN.
Ammonium Sulfate
• AMS may be substituted for UAN.
• When liquid AMS is used, substitute 3.0 quarts of
8-8-0 analysis for 2.5 pounds of dry AMS.
• Use high-quality AMS (i.e., spray grade) to avoid plugging
spray nozzles. Other sources of nitrogen are not as
effective.
• If AMS is added directly to the spray tank, add it slowly
while agitating. Adding AMS too quickly may clog outlet
lines. Ensure AMS is completely dissolved before adding
any other products.
• AMS, if applied at less than 10 gallons per acre, may
cause potential precipitation and clogging.
NOTE: Because most nitrogen solutions are mildly corro-
sive to galvanized, mild steel, and brass spray equipment,
rinse the entire spray system with water soon after use.

Application Instructions
Apply Poast Plus® herbicide to actively growing grass weeds by aerial or ground application at the rates and timing
(maximum height) listed in Table 4 (annual grass weeds), Table 5 (perennial grass weeds), and Table 6 (early and rescue
treatments to control select annual grass weeds), as instructed in the Use-specific Information section of this label. For
small area application or spot application, refer to Table 7.
NOTE: The most effective control will be achieved by applying postemergence applications of Poast Plus early in the.
growing season, when grass weeds are small. Poast Plus may not be effective on grass weeds that have grown taller
than the maximum heights listed.
Apply Poast Plus to the foliage of grass weeds uniformly and completely; large leaf canopies shelter smaller grass weeds
and can prevent adequate spray coverage. DO NOT spray to the point of runoff.
Irrigation
In irrigated areas, it may be necessary to irrigate before application of Poast Plus to ensure active grass weed growth.
Cleaning Application Equipment
Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the
manufacturer's directions, followed by triple rinsing the equipment before and after applying Poast Plus.
Mixing Order
Maintain agitation throughout mixing and application.
1. Water - Fill tank 3/4 full of clean water and start agitation.
2. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
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-soluble additives (including dry and liquid fertilizers such as AMS or UAN)
5. Water-dispersible products (such as dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or
suspo-emulsions)
6. Water-soluble products
7. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as Poast Plus or COG)
8. Remaining quantity of water

Aerial Application Methods and Equipment
The interaction of many equipment-related and weather-
related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The
applicator and the grower are responsible for considering
all these factors when making application decisions.
DO NOT apply under circumstances where possible drift
to unprotected persons; to food, forage, or other plantings
that might be damaged; or to crops that would then be
unfit for sale, use, or consumption can occur.
The following drift management requirements must be fol-
lowed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial
applications to agricultural field crops.
1. The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom
must not exceed 3/4 the length of the fixed wingspan or
rotor blade diameter.
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the
airstream and never point downward more than
45 degrees.
Where a state has more stringent regulations, they must be
observed. The applicator should be familiar with and take
into account the information covered in the Spray Drift
Reduction Advisory Information section of this label.
Ground Application Methods and Equipment
(Broadcast)
• Apply with nozzle height no more than 4 feet above
ground or crop canopy.
• DO NOT apply when conditions favor drift from target
area or when wind speed is greater than 10 mph.
• DO NOT use selective application equipment such as
recirculating sprayers or wiper applicators.
Water Volume. Use 5 to 20 gallons of spray solution per
acre. In Region 1 (the West and High and Rolling Plains
Region; refer to Regional Descriptions), DO NOT use
less than 10 gallons of spray solution per acre.
Spray Pressure. Use 40 to 60 PSI (measured at the
boom, not at the pump or in the line). When crop foliage
and grass weed foliage are dense, use a maximum of
20 gallons of water per acre and 60 PSI.
Application Equipment. Use standard high-pressure
pesticide flat fan or hollow cone nozzles spaced up to
20 inches apart. DO NOT use flood, whirl chamber, or
controlled droplet applicator nozzles because erratic cover-
age can cause inconsistent grass weed control. To control
tall grass weeds, such as volunteer corn, the boom should
be high enough to cover the entire plant. Refer to the noz-
zle manufacturer's directions for recommended height.
When a crop, such as cotton, is 24 inches or taller and the
grass weeds are below the crop canopy, use drop nozzles
to ensure good coverage of grass weeds.
Ground Application Methods and Equipment
(Banding)
• Poast Plus® herbicide may be applied by banding to
control annual grass weeds.
• DO NOT make banding applications to control perennial
grass weeds.
• For banding applications, follow the directions in the
Ground Application Methods and Equipment
(Broadcast) section of this label.
When applying Poast Plus by banding, use the following
formulas to calculate the amount of herbicide and water
volume needed:

Use-specific Information
I Alfalfa, Birdsfoot Trefoil, Sainfoin ]
|v • , .^ _y, (dryand^undried) ^. j
• PHI
- Hay (dry): 14 days before cutting
- Forage (undried): 7 days before grazing, feeding, or
cutting
• Maximum Single Application Rate
- Hay (dry) and Forage (undried): 3.75 pints/acre
• Maximum Seasonal Application Rate
- Hay (dry) and Forage (undried): 9.75 pints/acre
• There are no livestock grazing or feeding restrictions in
alfalfa, birdsfoot trefoil, or sainfoin.
• Aerial and ground application allowed.
Poast Plus® herbicide may be applied to seedling or
established alfalfa grown for hay, silage, green chop, direct
grazing, or seed. Apply Poast Plus before mowing for the
best control of annual grass weeds. Mowed grass weeds
may form large crowns and could require repeat applica-
tions for control.
NOTE: In alfalfa, the addition of ammonium sulfate (AMS)
or urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) will enhance activity on
certain grass weed species.
Irrigated Alfalfa, Birdsfoot Trefoil, and
Sainfoin
• The timing of irrigation is important to achieve optimum
grass weed control.
• Poast Plus application 2 to 4 days after irrigation is most
effective because:
- Grass weeds have resumed active growth.
- Grass weeds have less chance to grow too large.
- Later applications allow plants to begin to canopy,
which interferes with spray coverage.
• Irrigation shortly after application (e.g., 2 days) can be
effective, but more consistent control is obtained when
irrigation is made before application.
Annual Grass Weed Control
• Apply Poast Plus at the rate and timing (maximum
height) indicated in Table 4 and Table 6.
• If grass weeds have been cut, apply after 2 to 4 inches 'of
regrowth (so there will be enough leaf area for absorption)
and before exceeding maximum height (refer to Table 4
and Table 6).
• Apply before plant canopies cover annual grass weeds
and interfere with spray coverage. NOTE: Timing appli-
cations to after a cutting following an irrigation or rainfall
will allow grass weeds to regrow to a treatable size.
• Spray spring-germinating and summer-germinating grass
weeds as early in the season as possible.
• Spray fall-germinating grass weeds in the fall soon after
they begin growing but before any killing frost.
Perennial Grass Weed Control
• Poast Plus effectively controls or suppresses perennial
grass weeds listed in Table 5. However, .a program of
repeat applications will usually provide the best results.
• The most economical way of controlling perennial grass
weeds is to disk the field before stand establishment to
thoroughly fragment rhizomes or stolons.
• In summer and fall seedings, cool-season grass weeds
(e.g., perennial ryegrass, quackgrass, wirestem muhly)
can become competitive under cool fall conditions, Fall
applications will reduce late-season growth and limit
accumulation of nutrient reserves in roots and rhizomes.
• In established stands, apply in the spring when condi-
tions favor active growth and before storage tissues have
increased their nutrient reserves.
• Make additional applications on any grass regrowth in
later cuttings.

1 For regrowth or new germination, make a second application 7 to
10 days later with Rezult B.
2 For regrowth or new germination, a follow-up application of Poast Plus
may be necessary.
Mode of Action
The tank mix of Poast Plus + Rezult B is herbicidally
effective through both foliar contact and systemic activity.
Weeds must be thoroughly covered with spray. Large crop-
and-weed-leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds and prevent
adequate spray coverage.
Crop Tolerance
Essentially all grass crops (e.g. ornamental grass, turfgrass,
as well as cereal grain crops such as sorghum, corn, small
grains) are susceptible to Poast Plus + Rezult B; there-
fore, avoid all direct or indirect contact with any grass crop.
Rotational Crops
The tank mix of Poast Plus + Rezult B has no crop rota-
tion restrictions.
Application instructions
Application Rate and Timing
Tank Mix Application
In a single tank mix application, apply 1.6 pints per acre
Poast Plus plus 1.6 pints per acre Rezult B early
postemergence to actively growing weeds before they
reach the maximum sizes listed in Table 1.
DO NOT apply the single tank mix application of
Poast Plus + Rezult B in any rate combination other
than a 1:1 ratio.
In a single application or in one growing season, DO NOT
exceed the maximum total cumulative tank mix rate of
3.2 pints per acre (1.6 pints per acre Poast Plus +
1.6 pints per acre Rezult B).
Sequential Application
If weeds regrow or new weeds germinate after the initial
single tank mix application of Poast Plus + Rezult B,
sequential applications of either Poast Plus or Rezult B
may be applied in each crop at use rates specified in the
Crop-specific Information section.
Application Methods and Equipment
Ground Application
Thorough spray coverage is required for control of
emerged weeds. Use a minimum spray volume of 10 gal-
lons of water per acre to ensure adequate spray coverage.
Use up to 20 gallons of water per acre when crop and
weed foliage is dense. DO NOT use flood or whirl-
chamber nozzles. DO NOT use brass nozzles because of
the corrosive effects of nitrogen additives.
Aerial Application
Use a minimum spray volume of 5 gallons of water per
acre. To obtain uniform coverage and to avoid off-target
drift movement, applicators must observe the following
requirements:
• Boom Length - The distance of the outermost nozzles
on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of the fixed
wingspan or 90% of rotor-blade diameter.
• Nozzle Type - Use low-drift nozzles such as straight-
stream (D-8 or larger). DO NOT use nozzles producing a
mist droplet spray.
• Nozzle Orientation - Nozzles must always point back-
ward parallel with the airstream and never be pointed
downward more than 45 degrees.
• Application Height - Without compromising aircraft
safety, apply at a height of 10 feet or less above the crop
canopy or tallest plants.
DO NOT apply Poast Plus + Rezult B by aircraft within
200 feet upwind of grasses (ornamental or turfgrass), orna-
mental plants, or sensitive nontarget crops such as corn,
cotton, small grains, sugar beets, or sunflowers.
Cleaning Spray Equipment
Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a strong
detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the
manufacturer's directions, followed by triple rinsing the
equipment before and after applying Poast Plus +
Rezult B.
Mixing Order
1. Water - Fill tank 1/2 to 2/3 full with clean water and start
agitation.
2. Agitation - Maintain agitation throughout mixing.
3. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after
each component has been added.
4. 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.
5. Water-soluble additives (including dry and liquid fertil-
izers such as ammonium sulfate or urea ammonium
nitrate)
6. Water-dispersible products (such as dry flowables,
wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-
emulsions)
5 [Page 31 of 34]
4?y1. Water-soluble products (such as Rezult® B herbicide)
8. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as Poast Plus®
herbicide or crop oil concentrate)
9. Remaining quantity of water
Maintain agitation throughout application until spraying is
complete. Spray Poast Plus + Rezult B within 48 hours
after dispensing into the spray tank,
Tank Mixing Information
Poast Plus + Rezult B may be tank mixed with other reg-
istered herbicides according to the specific tank mixing
instructions in this label and respective product labels.
Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations
and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank
mixing. Always follow the most restrictive label use direc-
tions. Refer to the Crop-specific Information section for
tank mixing details.
BASF does not recommend the use of Poast Plus +
Rezult B in tank mixes other than those listed on BASF
labels, supplemental labels, or technical bulletins.
Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop
injury may result from mixing Poast Plus + Rezult B with
other pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or
miticides), additives, or fertilizers not recommended on the
label.
Additives
To achieve consistent postemergence weed control when
applying the tank mix of Poast Plus + Rezult B, add adju-
vants at the following specified rates:
• 0.5 to 1 pint (maximum) of crop oil concentrate (COG) per
acre plus 1 to 2 quarts (maximum) of urea ammonium
nitrate (UAN) per acre
• Ammonium sulfate (AMS) can be substituted for UAN
(1 pound of AMS equals 1 quart of UAN).
Use Precautions
• DO NOT apply to labeled crops under environmental
stress or damage, fertility excesses, previous herbicide
injury, mechanical injury, or cold temperatures, or crop
injury may result.
• DO NOT apply to weeds under stress (such as stress
because of lack of moisture, previous herbicide injury,
mechanical injury, or cold temperatures) when maximum
daily temperature is below 70° F or soil temperature is
below 60° F, or unsatisfactory control could result.
• DO NOT apply if rainfall or irrigation is expected within
one hour following application.
• DO NOT apply through any type of irrigation system.
• DO NOT cultivate within 5 days before application or
within 7 days after application. Cultivation may put weeds
under stress and reduce control. A timely cultivation
7 days after application may provide season-long weed
control.
Crop-specific Information
This section provides use directions for the tank mix of
Poast Plus + Rezult B in specific crops. Read Product
Information, mixing, application, weeds controlled, and
adjuvant instructions in the preceding sections of the label.
Always read and follow all label directions when using
these products alone, or in a tank mix, or in other tank mix
combinations. The most restrictive labeling applies when
using tank mixes.
L Dry Beans arid Dry Peas
Apply Poast Plus + Rezult B to dry beans after the first
trifoliate leaf has fully expanded and to dry peas after they
have at least three (3) pairs of leaves or four (4) nodes.
DO NOT apply before these growth stages because
severe crop injury may occur.
Dry bean and dry pea injury can be very pronounced. Even
at the tolerant stages, yellowing, bronzing, speckling, or
burning of leaves may occur under certain conditions (refer
to Use Precautions section). This temporary injury is gen-
erally outgrown without delaying podset or maturity, or
reducing yield. Using COG with Poast Plus + Rezult B
may increase injury and may reduce yield.
Tolerant bean and pea types are:
adzuki bean, black turtle soup bean, cranberry bean,
dry lima bean, dry snap bean, great northern bean, kid-
ney bean, navy bean, pink bean, pinto bean, red bean,
white bean, and dry edible peas (field peas).
In western irrigated dry bean areas, it may be necessary to
irrigate before application of Poast Plus + Rezult B to
ensure weeds are actively growing. In this irrigated area,
avoid applying Poast Plus + Rezult B during prolonged
periods of cold weather (day temperature below 75° F and
night temperature below 55° F for 2 to 5 days) because
weed control may be reduced.
Sequential Application
In dry beans and dry peas, an additional 2.9 pints per acre
of Poast Plus or 2.0 pints per acre of Rezult B may be
applied after the initial single tank mix application of
Poast Plus + Rezult B.
Crop-specific Restrictions and Limitations
• After the single tank mix application of Poast Plus +
Rezult B, DO NOT apply more than 2.9 pints per acre of
Poast Plus or 2.0 pints per acre of Rezult B in one
season to dry beans or dry peas.
• DO NOT apply Poast Plus + Rezult B to dry peas
under stress from root rot.
• DO NOT apply Poast Plus + Rezult B to garbanzo
beans or lupins at any stage of growth or severe crop
damage may occur.
• DO NOT apply Poast Plus + Rezult B to dry beans or
dry peas within 30 days of harvest.
