GENERAL INFORMATION
Ricestar® HT Herbicide is an emulsifiable concentrate for the selective postemergence control of annual grass
weeds	in	rice.	Thorough	spray	coverage	of	emerged	grasses	is	important.	Visible	effects	begin	as	a	general
chlorosis	(yellowing)	followed	by	death	of	the	weed.	Visible	injury	of	the	grasses	is	evident	approximately	4	to10
days	after	application	(dependent	upon	environmental	conditions);	but	complete	kill	of	the	target	grass	will	take
up to 21 days .
Since many grass crops, including sorghum and corn, are sensitive to Ricestar HT Herbicide, avoid all direct or
indirect contact to neighboring fields .
Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	does	not	control	broadleaf	weeds	or	sedges.
Rice is tolerant to postemergence applications of Ricestar HT Herbicide from the 2-leaf to the late tillering stage
of rice development .
CHEMIGATION
DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system .

INFORMATION ON HERBICIDE TOLERANT WEEDS
Repeated	use	of	the	same	herbicide	or	related	herbicides	may	result	in	naturally	tolerant	weeds	multiplying	to
infestations	that	will	affect	yields.	In	areas	with	consistent	use	of	the	same	herbicide	or	herbicide	mode	of	action,
crop	rotation	and	applications	of	alternative	herbicides	with	different	mode	of	actions	are	encouraged	to	prevent
and/or reduce grass tolerance . For further information, contact an Bayer CropScience Company representative or
your	local	State	extension	service.	Do	not	apply	to	weeds	that	are	tolerant	to	products	that	have	the	same	mode
of action, i .e ., Fusilade® DX Herbicide, Assure® II Herbicide or Select® 2 EC Herbicide .
DIRECTIONS AND INFORMATION FOR CULTURE OF RICE IN ARKANSAS,
LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, MISSOURI AND TEXAS
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Rice fields should be as level as possible and free of large clods to obtain uniform germination of rice and
weed	grasses	and	to	ensure	uniform	flood	levels.	Do	not	apply	when	the	grass	weeds	are	drought	stressed
as	control	will	be	reduced.	If	necessary,	fields	may	be	flushed	prior	to	treatment.	If	fields	are	flushed	prior	to
treatment,	flush	in	sufficient	time	so	that	the	rice	and	grass	are	actively	growing	at	time	of	treatment.

A . Ground Application: Refer to the Rates and Weeds Controlled table for proper application rates . Ricestar
HT	Herbicide	should	be	applied	in	a	minimum	of	10	gallons	of	water	per	broadcast	acre.	Flat-fan	nozzles
are recommended . Do not use air-inducting or flood type nozzles . Use a minimum pressure of 30 psi .
Under	 dense	 weed/crop	 canopies,	 higher	 spray	 pressure	 and	 increased	 gallonage	 are	 important	 in
obtaining thorough spray coverage .
B . Air Application: Uniformly apply Ricestar HT Herbicide or Ricestar HT Herbicide tank mixes by aircraft in
no	less	than	10	gallons	of	water	per	acre	total	spray	volume.		Factors	such	as	reduced	spray	volume	may
impact treatment coverage or canopy penetration and can have a negative effect on the performance of
Ricestar	HT	Herbicide.		 Use	nozzle	types	and	arrangements	which	will	provide	maximum	coverage	and
minimize the potential for off target movement of spray particles .  Droplet size for air applications should
be in the “Medium” size category as defined in the August 1999 ASAE S572 publication entitled, “Spray
Nozzle Classification by Droplet Spectra” .  Refer to the publication for additional information .  DO NOT
USE raindrop	nozzles.		 Aerial	applications	with	this	product	should	be	made	at	a	height	which	provides
the	most	effective	swath	width	for	the	aircraft,	but	no	lower	than	10	feet	from	the	rice	crop.
DO NOT APPLY when wind speeds exceed 10 mph. Avoid all direct or indirect contact to neighboring
fields.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Ricestar HT Herbicide is not volatile . Damage to sensitive crops can occur as a result of spray drift . Spray
drift can be managed by several application factors and by spraying under appropriate climatic conditions .
Consequently, avoidance of spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator .
SENSITIVE AREAS: 	The	pesticide	should	be	applied	when	the	potential	for	drift	to	adjacent	sensitive	areas
(e.g.,	 residential	 areas,	 bodies	 of	 water,	 known	 habitat	 for	 threatened	 or	 endangered	 species,	 nontarget
crops)	is	minimal	(e.g.,	when	wind	is	blowing	away	from	sensitive	areas).
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator . The interactions of many
equipment	and	weather-related	factors	determine	the	potential	for	spray	drift.	The	applicator	and	the	grower
are	responsible	for	considering	all	these	factors	when	making	decisions.
The	following	drift	management	requirements	must	be	followed	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	the	length	of	the	wingspan	or	rotor.
2.	 Nozzles	must	always	point	backward,	parallel	with	the	air	stream,	and	never	be	pointed	downward	more
than 45 degrees .
3 . All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate
carriers .
Where	states	have	more	stringent	regulations,	they	should	be	observed.
The	 applicator	 should	 be	 familiar	 with,	 and	 take	 into	 account,	 the	 information	 covered	 in	 “Aerial Drift
Reduction Advisory Information.”
AERIAL DRIFT REDUCTION ADVISORY INFORMATION
The	 most	 effective	 way	 to	 reduce	 drift	 potential	 is	 to	 apply	 large	 droplets.	 The	 best	 drift	 management	 strategy
is to apply the largest 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	 unfavorable	 environmental
conditions . (See “Wind,” “Temperature and Humidity,” and “Temperature Inversions.”)

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE
•	 Volume	-	Use	high	flow	rate	nozzles	to	apply	the	highest	practical	spray	volume.	Nozzles	with	higher	rated
flows	produce	larger	droplets.
•	 Pressure	 -	 Do	 not	 exceed	 the	 nozzle	 manufacturer’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	spray	is	released	parallel	to	the	airstream	produces	larger
droplets	than	other	orientations	and	is	the	recommended	practice.	Significant	deflection	from	horizontal	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,
narrower	 spray	 angles	 produce	 larger	 droplets.	 Consider	 using	 low-drift	 nozzles.	 Solid	 stream	 nozzles
oriented	straight	back	produce	the	largest	droplets	and	the	lowest	drift.
BOOM LENGTH
•	 For	some	use	patterns,	reducing	the	effective	boom	length	to	less	than	that	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	aircraft	safety.	Making	applications	at	the	lowest	height	that	is	safe	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
up	and	downwind	edges	of	the	field,	the	applicator	must	compensate	for	this	displacement	by	adjusting
the	path	of	the	aircraft	upwind.	Swath	adjustment	distance	should	increase,	with	increasing	drift	potential
(higher	wind,	smaller	drops,	etc.).
WIND
•	 Drift	 potential	is	lowest	between	wind	speeds	of	2	to	10	m.p.h.		However,	many	factors,	including	droplet
size	and	equipment	type	determine	drift	potential	at	any	given	speed.	Application	should	be	avoided	below
2	m.p.h.	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
•
Avoid applications during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high . Temperature inversions
restrict	 vertical	 air	 mixing,	 which	 causes	 small	 suspended	 droplets	 to	 remain	 in	 a	 concentrated	 cloud.

This	cloud	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	the	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.

TIMING OF APPLICATION
Preflood
When	 recommended	 water	 management	 practices	 are	 followed	 (see	 Water Management -Important
Instructions	 section),	optimal	conditions	for	controlling	grass	usually	occur	when	the	rice	is	in	the	2-leaf	to
early	 tillering	 stage	 of	 development	 (but	 prior	 to	 panicle	 initiation).	 However,	 applications	 should	 be	 made
according	to	the	following	chart:
Rates and Grass Weeds Controlled

WATER MANAGEMENT – IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
THE FOLLOWING PADDY FLOOD PROGRAM MUST BE USED:
Rice fields must be level . If desirable, fields may be flushed prior to treatment . To expose existing grasses,
allow	sufficient	time	for	water	to	drain	from	the	field	before	the	Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	application.		The	treated
field	can	be	flushed	at	a	minimum	of	48	hours	or	the	permanent	flood	can	be	applied	to	rice	with	at	least	3
true	leaves	and	a	minimum	of	48	hours	following	the	Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	application.		Rice	should	not	be
submerged	following	a	Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	application.
POST-FLOOD: SUPPRESSION PROGRAMS
Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	will	suppress	annual	grass	weeds	after	the	first	tiller	stage	when	applied	post-flood.
For	post-flood	applications,	the	rice	plants	should	have	at	least	one	tiller	and	the	water	level	should	cover	no
more	than	25%	of	the	annual	grass	weed	foliage.	The	flood	may	be	increased	to	a	normal	depth	2	to	3	days
after the application . Thorough coverage is essential .
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Fill	the	spray	tank	half	full	with	water	while	the	agitator	is	running.	Add	the	recommended	amount	of	Ricestar
HT	 Herbicide	 followed	 by	 the	 appropriate	 amount	 of	 the	 tank	 mix	 component	 (if	 used).	 Then	 add	 the
remaining	amount	of	water.
SEQUENTIAL APPLICATIONS
In	 preflood	 applications,	 a	 new	 flush	 of	 weeds	 may	 occur	 before	 the	 field	 receives	 the	 permanent	 flood;
therefore, other herbicide applications may be required . DO NOT make a second application of Ricestar HT
Herbicide	within	14	days	of	the	first	application.
Tankmix Recommendation
For	broad	spectrum	weed	control,	Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	may	be	tankmixed	with	other	herbicides.	Refer	to
the	tankmix	partner	list	that	identifies	potential	mixture	partners.	Apply	tankmixes	with	Ricestar	HT	Herbicide
before	the	annual	grasses	have	passed	the	3	leaf	stage	of	growth.	Do	not	tankmix	Ricestar	HT	Herbicide	with
any	other	product	when	the	grasses	have	exceeded	the	3	leaf	stage.	When	tankmixing,	follow	the	directions
for use on the label of the mixing partner .

WEED RESISTANCE
Mode of Action
The active ingredient in this product, fenoxaprop-p-Ethyl is a Group 1 Herbicide based on the mode of action
classification	 system	 of	 the	 Weed	 Science	 Society	 of	 America.	 	 Any	 weed	 population	 may	 contain	 plants
naturally	 resistant	 to	 Group	 1	 herbicides.	 	Weeds	 resistant	 to	 these	 herbicides	 may	 be	 effectively	 managed
utilizing	another	herbicide	from	a	different	Group	and/or	by	using	cultural	or	mechanical	practices.		However,	a
herbicide	mode	of	action	classification	by	itself	may	not	adequately	address	specific	weeds	that	are	resistant
to specific herbicides .  Consult your local company representative, state cooperative extension service,
professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate actions for treating specific
resistant	weeds.
Best Management Practices
Ricestar®	 HT	 Herbicide	 inhibits	 the	 ACC-ase	 enzyme	 system.	 Repeated	 use	 of	 herbicides	 with	 the	 same
mode	 of	 action	 allows	 resistant	 weeds	 to	 spread.	 Proactively	 implementing	 diversified	 weed	 management
programs	may	delay	the	development	of	resistant	weeds.		 Diversified	programs	include	the	use	of	multiple
herbicides	with	different	modes	of	action	with	overlapping	weed	spectrums	as	well	as	the	utilization	of	cultural
weed	control	practices,	such	as	tillage.
•	 Use	 labeled	rates	of	herbicides	and	carefully	follow	the	directions	for	use
•	 Scout	 fields	after	a	herbicide	application	to	facilitate	early	detection	of	weed	shifts	and/or	weed	resistance
•	 Implement	 measures	to	avoid	allowing	weeds	to	reproduce	by	seed	or	proliferate	vegetatively
•	 Clean	 equipment	between	sites	and	avoid	movement	of	plant	material	between	sites	to	retard	the	spread
of	potentially	resistant	weed	seed.
USE PRECAUTIONS
