USE RESTRICTIONS
x Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
x DO NOT spray if conditions of thermal inversion exist, or if wind direction and speed
may cause spray to drift onto adjacent nontarget areas. Drift minimization is the
responsibility of the applicator. Consult with local and State agricultural authorities
for information regarding avoiding or minimizing spray drift.
x The MAXIMUM USE RATES indicated for Touchdown HiTech have been
determined based upon the concentration of glyphosate acid (expressed as acid
equivalents) contained in this product. The actual maximum application rates stated
apply to the total amount of glyphosate acid equivalents applied to a given site in
any year either from the application of this product alone or in combination with other
glyphosate-containing products, applied either as mixtures with other products or
separately. Application rates must be calculated to ensure that the use of this and
other glyphosate containing products do not exceed the maximum use rate as
specified below unless otherwise specified in the specific use directions.
x In agricultural use sites and crop areas, do not exceed a total of 4.8 qt Touchdown
HiTech/A equivalent to 6 lb glyphosate acid equivalents per acre per year.
x In nonagricultural use areas, do not exceed a total of 6.3 qt Touchdown HiTech/A
equivalent to 8 lb glyphosate acid equivalents per acre per year.
x Do not exceed 0.6 qt/A per application for applications made with aerial application
equipment.
x For broadcast postemergence treatments, do not harvest or feed treated vegetation
for 8 weeks following application, unless otherwise specified.
x Do not allow the herbicide solution to mist, drip, drift, or splash onto desirable
vegetation since minute quantities of this product can cause severe damage or
destruction to the crop, plants, or other areas on which treatment was not intended.
When spraying, avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in
splatter or fine particles (mist) which are likely to drift. Avoid applying at excessive
speed or pressure.
x Thoroughly clean the spray system with water and a commercial tank cleaner after
each use.
x There are no rotational crop restrictions following application of this product.

Touchdown HiTech
Page 8
USE PRECAUTIONS
x Touchdown HiTech requires actively growing green plant tissue to function.
Application to drought-stressed weeds or weeds with little green foliage (e.g.,
mowed, cut, or hailed on weeds); weeds covered with dust; weeds damaged by
insects or diseases may result in reduced weed control.
x Touchdown HiTech does not provide soil residual control of weeds. Weeds
emerging after application will require retreatment.
x Heavy rainfall or irrigation shortly after application may require retreatment.
x Tillage or mowing within 3 days following application may reduce weed control.
x Touchdown HiTech is not volatile and cannot move as a vapor after application onto
nontarget vegetation.
x Spray solutions of Touchdown HiTech should be mixed, stored, and applied using
only plastic, plastic-lined steel, stainless steel, or fiberglass containers. Concentrate
should not be stored in galvanized steel, carbon steel, aluminum, or unlined steel
containers.
x Severe damage or destruction may be caused by contact of Touchdown HiTech to
any vegetation (including leaves, green stems, exposed non–woody roots, or fruit) of
crops, trees, and other desirable plants to which treatment is not intended, except as
specified for glyphosate-tolerant crops.
RESISTANT WEED MANAGEMENT
Touchdown HiTech contains glyphosate which inhibits 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-
phosphate synthase (EPSPS, Site of Action Group 9). Some naturally occurring weed
populations have been identified as resistant to Group 9 herbicides. Selection of
resistant biotypes, through repeated use of these herbicides or lower than labeled use
rates in the same field, may result in weed control failures. A resistant biotype may be
present where poor performance cannot be attributed to adverse environmental
conditions or improper application methods. If resistance is suspected, contact your
local Syngenta representative and/or agricultural advisor for assistance.
General principles of herbicide resistant weed management:
x Employ integrated weed management practices. Use multiple herbicide sites-of-
action with overlapping weed spectrums in rotation, sequences, or mixtures.
x Use the full labeled herbicide rate and proper application timing for the hardest to
control weed species present in the field.

Touchdown HiTech
Page 9
x Scout fields after herbicide application to ensure control has been achieved.
Avoid allowing weeds to reproduce by seed or to proliferate vegetatively.
x Monitor site and clean equipment between sites.
x Start with a clean field and control weeds early by using a burndown treatment or
tillage in combination with a preemergence residual herbicide as appropriate.
x Use cultural practices such as cultivation and crop rotation, where appropriate.
x Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop competitiveness.
APPLICATION AND MIXING
TIMING
Touchdown HiTech should be applied to actively growing emerged weeds. Annual
weeds of 6 inches or less in height are typically the easiest to control. Generally, more
effective control of perennial weeds is achieved at the flowering or seedhead stage.
Refer to the WEEDS CONTROLLED, WOODY BRUSH AND TREES CONTROLLED
sections for specific application timing.
When annual weeds have been mowed or grazed, wait for 3-4 inches of new growth to
appear prior to application. When perennial weeds have been mowed or grazed, allow
new growth to reach recommended stage prior to application.
Visible effects on annual weeds occur within 2-4 days after application; effects on
perennial weeds may take 7 days or longer. Extremely cool or cloudy weather following
treatment may slow activity.
RATES
Follow specified rates for Touchdown HiTech listed in the WEEDS CONTROLLED,
WOODY BRUSH AND TREES CONTROLLED sections. Use the higher label rates
when weeds are dense or large. Also, use higher application volumes and pressures
when weed vegetation is dense.
SPRAY ADDITIVES
Surfactants/Wetting Agents – This product does not contain a surfactant. A nonionic
surfactant (NIS) or wetting agent (approved for intended use) must be added at
0.25-0.5% v/v (1-2 quarts NIS or wetting agent/100 gallons) of finished spray volume.
The nonionic surfactant or wetting agent used should contain at least 75% active
ingredient.
Ammonium Sulfate (AMS) – Control of annual and perennial weeds with Touchdown

Touchdown HiTech
Page 10
HiTech may be improved by adding dry ammonium sulfate at 1-2% by weight or 8.5-17
lb/100 gal of water. In the High Plains where water sources contain Ca, Mg, Mn levels
exceeding 150 ppm, use a minimum of 8.5 lb AMS per 100 gallons of spray mixture.
Liquid formulations of AMS may be used at an equivalent rate. Do not reduce use rates
of Touchdown HiTech when using AMS.
Drift Control Agents – Drift control agents may be used with Touchdown HiTech.
When an adjuvant is to be used with this produc t, the use of an adjuvant that meets the
standards of the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) adjuvant
certification program is recommended.
TANK MIXES WITH RESIDUAL HERBICIDES
Refer to crop sections for tank mixes. Tank mixes of Touchdown HiTech with other
pesticides, fertilizers, or any other additives except as specified on this label or other
approved Syngenta supplemental labeling may result in tank mix incompatibility or
unsatisfactory performance. Use the jar test to determine the compatibility of the
combination before tank mixing.
Always refer to labels of other pesticide products for mixing directions, restrictions and
precautions which may differ from those outlined here. Use in accordance with the
most restrictive of label limitations, restrictions and precautions. Do not exceed label
dosage rates. This product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label
prohibition against such mixing.
Tank Mixing Directions:
1. Fill spray tank ½ full with clean water.
2. Begin tank agitation and continue throughout mixing and spraying.
3. Add AMS (if used).
4. Add dry formulations (WP, DF, etc.) to tank.
5. Add liquid formulations (SC, EC, L, etc.) to tank.
6. Add Touchdown HiTech.
7. Add nonionic surfactant or wetting agent.
8. Fill remainder of spray tank.
APPLICATION EQUIPMENT AND TECHNIQUES
x Preventing drift is the responsibility of the applicator. Applications must not be made
in low-level inversion conditions, when winds are gusty or under any other conditions
which favor drift. Inversions are characterized by stable air and increasing
temperatures with height above the ground. The applicator may detect the presence
of an inversion by producing smoke and observing a smoke layer. Drift may cause
damage to any vegetation contacted to which treatment is not intended.

Touchdown HiTech
Page 11
x Compatibility with drift control additives may vary. Use the jar test to determine the
compatibility of the combination. Read and follow manufacturer’s directions for use.
A reduction in weed control may occur when drift control agents are used.
x All equipment must be properly maintained and washed to remove product residues
after use.
Broadcast Applications
Ground
Make ground applications in 3-40 gal of water per acre.
When foliage is dense, spray volume should be increased to ensure coverage of the
target weeds. Flat-fan nozzles will result in the most effective application of Touchdown
HiTech. Spray boom and nozzle heights must be adjusted to provide coverage of target
weed. Flood nozzles may result in reduced weed control due to inadequate coverage.
Air
Make aerial applications in 3-15 gal of water per acre.
Spray should be released at the lowest height consistent with effective weed control and
flight safety. Apply at a height no more than 10 ft above the canopy.
Use the largest droplet size consistent with good weed control. Formation of very small
droplets may be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away
from the air stream as much as possible, and by using the appropriate spray boom
pressure. Solid stream or low shear nozzles may be utilized to reduce small droplet
formation. These nozzles direct the fluid parallel to the existing airflow to reduce shear
effects. Other techniques may include reducing the fan angle of flat fan nozzles if used,
or reducing the deflector plate angle if deflector type nozzles are used. Ensure the
spray is released at an appropriate distance below the airfoil.
For best results, each specific aerial application vehicle used should be quantifiably
pattern tested for aerial application of Touchdown HiTech initially and every year
thereafter. To minimize drift, it is suggested aerial application equipment produce the
following minimum spray deposition characteristics:
Volume Median Diameter (VMD) › 400 microns
Volume Diameter (VD) {0.9} › 200 microns
For aerial application in California, refer to the Federal Supplemental label for aerial
application for specific instructions, restrictions, and requirements. For aerial
application, consult with State or local authorities regarding any additional requirements
for aerial application. Banvel® tank mixes may not be applied by air in California.

Touchdown HiTech
Page 12
Prolonged exposure of Touchdown HiTech to uncoated steel surfaces may result in
corrosion and possible failure of the part. The maintenance of an organic coating
(paint) which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38413 may prevent corrosion. To
prevent corrosion of exposed parts, thoroughly wash aircraft after each day of spraying
to remove residues of Touchdown HiTech accumulated during spraying or from spills.
Landing gears are most susceptible.
Shielded/Hooded Application
Use shielded/hooded sprayers to control weeds between rows while protecting the crop
from the herbicide. Keep shields/hoods as close to the ground as possible and avoid
ground speed in excess of 5 mph. Use appropriate nozzles, spacing, and pressure to
achieve coverage without allowing spray to touch or drift onto the crop. Maintain
equipment in good operating condition to prevent leakage or dripping onto the crop.
Refer to state extension service recommendations and equipment manufacturers’
guidelines for more information on proper operation of shielded/hooded sprayers.
Spot Treatments
For annual weeds less than 6 inches, use a 0.33-0.6% v/v solution. For annual weeds
over 6 inches, use a 0.6-0.9% v/v solution. Use a 0.6-1.25% v/v solution for most
perennials (see Table 3 for specific rates and timing). When using motorized spot spray
equipment (rider bar), use a 1.8% v/v solution. See Spot Spray Dilution Table below for
rates of Touchdown HiTech/volume of finished spray solution. Spray the solution on
actively growing weeds until uniformly wet but not to the point of runoff. Retreat 14-21
days later if regrowth occurs.

applications. Best results are obtained when the grass seed crop is small enough to
easily pass by or through the protective shields/hoods.
Wiper/Wick Applicators
Applicators should be adjusted so that the wiper contact point is at least 2 inches above
the desirable vegetation. Weeds should be a minimum of 6 inches above the desirable
vegetation. Better results may be obtained when more of the weed is exposed to the
herbicide solution. Weeds not contacted by the herbicide solution will not be affected.
This may occur in dense clumps, severe infestations, or when height of weeds varies so
that not all weeds are contacted. In these instances, repeat treatments may be
necessary. Better results may be obtained if two applications are made in opposite
directions.

Touchdown HiTech
Page 71
Renovation; Seed or Sod Production
Touchdown HiTech controls most existing vegetation prior to renovating turfgrass areas
or establishing turfgrass grown for seed or sod. For maximum control of existing
vegetation, delay planting or sodding to determine if any regrowth from escaped
underground plant parts occurs. Where repeat treatments are necessary, sufficient
regrowth must be attained prior to application. For warm season grasses such as
bermudagrass, summer or fall applications provide the best control where existing
vegetation is growing under mowed turfgrass management. Apply Touchdown HiTech
after omitting at least one regular mowing to allow sufficient growth for good interception
of the spray.
Use Restrictions for Turfgrass Uses
x A nonionic surfactant (NIS) or wetting agent (approved for intended use) must be
added at 0.25% v/v (1 qt NIS or wetting agent/100 gallons) of finished spray volume.
x Do not feed or graze turfgrass grown for seed or sod production for 8 weeks
following application.
x Do not disturb soil or underground plant parts before treatment. Tillage or
renovation techniques such as vertical mowing, coring, or slicing should be delayed
for 7 days after application to allow translocation into underground plant parts.
x Oust XP tank mixes must not be used in highly maintained turfgrass.
x Do not feed or graze turfgrass grown for seed or sod production for 8 weeks
following application.
Use Precautions for Turfgrass Uses
x Desirable turfgrasses may be planted following the above procedures. Hand-held
equipment may be used for spot treatment of unwanted vegetation growing in
existing turfgrass. Broadcast or hand-held equipment may be used to control sod
remnants or other unwanted vegetation after sod is harvested.
x Application of rates greater than 10 fl oz/A of Touchdown HiTech may result in injury
or delayed green-up in highly maintained areas, such as golf courses and lawns.
x Use only in areas where some temporary injury or discoloration of perennial grasses
can be tolerated.

obtained when application is made in late summer or fall after fruit formation.
In arid areas, best results are obtained when applications are made in the spring to
early summer when brush species are at high moisture content and are flowering.
Symptoms may not appear prior to frost or senescence with fall treatments.
Allow 7 or more days after application before tillage, mowing, or removal. Repeat
treatments may be necessary to control plants regenerating from underground parts or
seed. Reduced performance may result if fall treatments are made following a frost.
When plants are growing under stressed conditions, or where infestations are dense,
Touchdown HiTech may be used at 3-6.3 qt/A or a 0.6-1.25% solution for spot spray
