GENERAL INFORMATION 
A 11976E is a herbicide that may be applied before or after weed emergence to control many 
annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in corn. This product will also provide in-season control 
of certain emerged perennial weeds. Al1976E may be applied up to 14 days before planting 
all types of corn grown under no-tillage or other reduced tillage practices, but before 
emergence of corn that is not specifically designated as Roundup Ready. 
WARNING: DO NOT APPLY A11976E AFTER CORN EMERGES T.tNlESS THE 
CORN SEED IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNATED AS ROUNDUP READY.. FAlLt'R.E 
TO COMPLY WITH THIS WARNING WILL CAUSE SEVERE INjUf{i':OR 
DEATH TO CORN PLANTS. . . . .) , , . . . ~ .. ,

AI1976E may be tank mixed with Dual II MAGNUM®, AAtrex® 4L or AAtrex' Nine-O' 
(atrazine), Princep® 4L or Princep® Caliber 90® (simazine), Roundup' (glyphosate), 
Prowl®(pendimethalin), Banvel® or Clarity® (dicarnba), or 2,4-D. 
Note: Tank mixtures are permitted only in those states where the tank mix partner is 
registered. Follow the label of each product used for precautionary statements, directions for 
use, geographic and other restrictions. Before com emerges, water or fluid fertilizer (28% or 
32% nitrogen solutions only) may be used as the carrier when applying A 11976E alone or in 
tank mixtures approved on this label. AI1976E may be applied to Roundup Ready corn after 
emergence up to a corn height of 12 inches tall. Use only water as a carrier when applying 
AI1976E after Roundup Ready corn emergence. Do not apply A1l976E in tank mix with 
other products after corn emergence. 
When reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control means significant 
activity, but not always at a level generally considered acceptable for commercial weed 
control. 
Triazine-resistant biotypes of some weeds have developed following many years of 
continuous use of atrazine (one of the ingredients in AI1976E) and other triazines. For best 
results, where resistant biotypes are known or suspected to exist with other weeds, Noyanis 
recommends the use of A 11976E after emergence of resistant biotypes. Consult with your 
State Agricultural Extension Service for specific recommendations. 
USE PRECAUTIONS 
I) To avoid excessive spray drift, do not apply if wind speed exceeds 10 mph or if winds are 
gusty. If sensitive crops or plants are growing downwind. do not apply if wind speed 
exceeds 5 mph or is gusty. (See section: Recommendations to Avoid Spray Drift). 
2) Aerial Application: Do not apply this product by air. 
3) Avoid spray overlap. as crop injury may result. 
4) Chemigation: Do not apply AI1976E through any type of irrigation system. 
5) Do not apply under conditions that favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing 
A 11976E to non-target areas. 
6) To minimize off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion of soil cyr.tJ.iliing 
Al1976E: ". ) 
a) Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are favDr~2Jlt; for ,,:r.u 
erosion. Under these conditions. the soil should first be settled by raini'JII 'or irrigation., 
b) Do not apply to impervious substrates, such as paved or highly compacted surface:;,

5 
c) Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat non­
target crops, unless at least 112 inch of rainfall has occurred between application and the 
first irrigation. 
7) Rainfall or sprinkler irrigation within 2 hours of application may reduce control of 
emerged weeds. 
8) Dry weather following preemergence application of Al1976E alone or in tank mixtures 
may reduce effectiveness. 
9) Reduced control of emerged weeds may occur when weeds are under poor growing 
conditions such as drought stress, cool temperatures or cloudy weather, when application 
follows recent mowing, or when excess amounts of dust cover plants. 
10) Thoroughly clean sprayer before using. Dispose of cleaning solution in a responsible 
manner. Do not use a sprayer contaminated with other materials, or crop injury or sprayer 
'J clogging may occur. 
APPLICATION PROCEDURES 
Compatibility Test 
A jar test is recommended before mixing to ensure A 11976E compatibility with tank mix 
panners and fluid fertilizer carriers. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gallons 
per acre. For other spray volumes, make appropriate changes in the ingredient rates. 
Note: When applied prior to corn emergence, nitrogen fertilizer solutions may replace part, 
or all, of the water carrier in the spray. Because liquid fertilizers vary, even within the same 
analysis, always check compatibility with pesticide(s) before mixing. 
') I. Add 1.0 pI. of carrier (water or fertilizer) to each of 2 one quart jars with tight lids. Note: 
Use the same source of carrier and other components in the compatibility test that will 
actually be tank mixed and applied. It is important that all components are mixed at a 
temperature similar to the temperature of those used for the actual application. 
2. To one of the jars, add ',4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility agent approved for t!:is 
use, such as Compex· or Unite" (1/4 tsp. is equivalent to 2 pt.!IOO gals. spray solltti~~j.' 
Shake or stir gently to mix. . . 
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of pesticide(s) in their relative p;o~ortio\ls thl,ed 
on recommended labeled rates. If more than one pesticide is used, add' tD~ip separa't~IY . 
with dry pesticides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable concentrates hs\ .. After nch 
addition, shake or stir gently to mix. ' . : , , '

) 
) 
6 
4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert each jar 10 times to mix. 
Let the mixtures stand 15-30 minutes and then look for separation,large flakes, precipitates, 
gels, heavy oil film on the jar, or other signs of incompatibility. Determine if the 
compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by comparing the two jars. If either 
mixture separates, but can be re-mixed readily, the mixture can be sprayed as long as good 
agitation is used. If the mixtures are incompatible, test the following methods of improving 
compatibility: (a) slurry the dry pesticide(s) in water before addition, or (b) add \/2 the 
compatibility agent to the water or fertilizer solution and the other \/2 to the emulsifiable 
concentrate or flow able pesticide before addition to the mixture. If incompatibility is still 
observed, do not use the mixture. 
5. After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes according ro the 
Storage and Disposal section in this label. 
Ground Applications 
Use stainless steel, aluminum. fiberglass. or polyethylene spray tanks only. Do not mix, 
store, or apply this product or spray solutions of this product in galvanized or unlined 
steel (except stainless steel) containers or spray tanks. This product, or spray solutions 
of this product, react with such containers to produce hydrogen gas, which may form a 
highly combustible gas mixture. This gas mixture could explode causing serious 
personal injury if ignited. Spray nozzles should be uniformly spaced and of the same size. 
and should provide accurate and uniform application. Use spray nozzles that provide 
medium-coarse droplets to provide good coverage and to minimize drift. (See 
Recommendations to Avoid Spray Drift section which follows.) 
To help ensure accuracy, calibrate sprayer at the beginning of the season before use and 
recalibrate frequently. Also recalibrate any time carriers are changed. For ground 
application, use a minimum of 10 gals. of water per acre. When weed infestations are severe, 
use a higher volume of water (for example 20 gals.! A) to ensure adequate spray coverage. 
Use a pump with capacity to: (1) maintain 35-40 psi pressure at nozzles, and (2) provide 
sufficient agitation within the tank to keep product in suspension. Lower pressures may be 
used with extended range or low-pressure nozzles. A centrifugal pump, which provides 
propeller shear action for dispersing and mixing the product, is recommended. The NIl'l!) 
should provide a minimum of 20 gals.! minutel 100 gal. tank size circulated through correctly 
positioned sparger tubes or jets. Agitation during mixing and application is essential.: Use 
screens to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging. Screen~ rl.F.;d on the 
suction side of the pump should be 16-mesh or coarser. Do not place a screen iri the ."", 
recirculation line. Use 50-mesh or coarser screens between the pump and booro: and ~ti~n . 
required, at the nozzles. Check nozzle manufacturer's recommendations. ";" '

Mixing Instructions 
IMPORTANT: To ensure proper mixing, follow the correct mixing order on the label. 
Poor mixing may result in crop injury and/or poor product performance. 
I. Shake or re-circulate Al1976E well before using. 
2. Make sure the spray tank is clean before mixing. If it is contaminated with other 
materials, mixing problems and/or clogging may occur. Inconsistent performance and/or 
injury to the crop may result. 
3. Fill the spray tank \4 - !l2 full with clean water and begin agitation. Note: Using muddy 
water from sources such as ponds or ditches may reduce the post emergence activity 
of A11976E. 
4. Make certain that the agitation system is working properly and creates a rippling or 
rolling action on the liquid surface. Maintain agitation throughout the mixing and 
spraying process. 
5. Continue filling the spray tank. If a compatibility agent is needed, add the required 
amount to the tank prior to adding any other components. When the tank is % full, add 
spray grade ammonium sulfate to the tank if desired. The addition of ammonium sulfate 
in the spray solution may increase the performance of AI1976E and recommended tank 
mixtures of emerged annual weeds growing under adverse conditions. When using 
ammonium sulfate, add 2 percent spray grade, dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 17 
pounds per 100 gallons of water. Ammonium sulfate should be added to the water in the 
spray tank and completely dissolved prior to adding any herbicides. Do not mix 
ammonium sulfate in any fluid fertilizer solutions. Additional surfactants are not 
required with this product. 
6. Next, add selected water-dispersible granule or other dry formulations such as AAtrex. 
Nine-O or Princep Caliber 90, and allow material to disperse. 
7. Pour the required amount of AI1976E into the spray tank while continuing agitatIon and 
allowing time to fully disperse. Add other flowable formulations such:as AAtrex 41, 0)" 
Princep 4L. ' 
8. Next, add soluble liquids such as glyphosate, dicamba, or 2,4-D if desir~r )hen add :any 
emulsifiable concentrate formulations such as Dual II MAGNUM or Prowl. 
, , , ,

) 
8 
9. Complete filling the tank, maintaining sufficient agitation at all times to ensure surface 
action until the spray tank mixture is uniform. 
10. An anti-foaming agent may be added to reduce excessive foaming if needed. 
II. Do not leave mixture in the spray tank without continuous agitation. Always 
maintain agitation to avoid separation and buildup of undesirable residues on the walls of 
the spray tank. 
Recommendations to Avoid Spray Drift 
As with all crop protection products, it is important to avoid off-target movement. 
Do not allow spray from ground equipment to drift onto adjacent land or crops, because even 
small amounts of A-11976E may injure sensitive plants. When drift may be a problem, take 
steps [0 reduce spray drift, including: 
• Do not spray if wind speed exceeds 10 mph or if winds are gusty. 
• If sensitive crops or plants are growing downwind, extreme caution must be used under 
all conditions. Do not spray if winds are gusty or above 5 mph. 
• C se extreme caution when conditions are favorable for drift (high temperatures and low 
relative humidity), especially when sensitive plants are located nearby. 
• Drift resulting from applications of this product is likely to damage sensitive plants 
adjacent to the treatment site, including corn plants that do not carry the Roundup Ready 
trait. 
• Do not apply when a temperature inversion exists. If an inversion condition is suspected, 
consult with local weather services before making an application. 
• Drift can be further reduced by: 
I. Using nozzles that provide a uniform droplet size. Use nozzles that produce medium 
to coarse droplets (250-400 microns VMD) that are less prone to result in spray drift. 
2. Use flat fan nozzles. For example, Turbo Teejet, XR® Teejet, RF Raindrop', or 
similar "low pressure" nozzles are preferred. 
3. When conditions favor drift, recalibrate sprayer by reducing spray pressures and by 
increasing spray volumes to produce larger droplets. 
4. Applying as close to target weeds as practical to obtain a good spray pattern for 
adequate coverage following nozzle manufacturer's recommendation!>. 
5. Using a drift reducing agent according to the manufacturer's recommendations. 
Cleaning Equipment After A11976E Application 
Since most crops other than Roundup Ready corn are extremely sensitive :0 lin.> rates of . , " A11976E, special attention must be given to cleaning equipment before spt~~i~$ other'crops. 
Mix only as much spray solution as needed. Immediately after spraying, cleal) ~quipmery\ . , 
thoroughly using this procedure: , , , , , ' , 
I. Flush tank, hoses, boom, and nozzles with clean water. (See Step 5 for disposal)

J 
9 
2. Prepare a cleaning solution of 1 gal. of household ammonia per 25 gals. of water. Many 
commercial spray tank cleaners may be used. Contact your local Novartis representative 
for more information about proper tank cleaning procedures. Do not use chlorine-based 
cleaners such as Clorox®. 
3. Apply the ammonia cleaning solution with a pressure washer to clean the inside of the 
spray tank. Take care to wash all parts of the tank, including the inside top surface. If 
pressure washer is not available, completely fill the sprayer with the cleaning solution to 
ensure contact of the cleaning solution with all internal surfaces of the tank and 
plumbing. Start agitation in the sprayer and thoroughly recirculate the cleaning solution 
for at least 15 minutes. All visible deposits must be removed from the spraying system. 
4. Flush hoses, spray lines, and nozzles for at least one minute with the cleaning solution. 
5. Dispose ofrinsate from steps 1-4 in an appropriate manner. Spray the cleaning solution 
on land that will be planted to com or return to a rinsate tank for later use as make-up for 
spraying corn or use other approved disposal methods. 
6. Repeat steps 2-5. 
7. Remove nozzles, screens and strainers and clean separately in the ammonia solution after 
completing the above procedures. 
8. Rinse the complete spraying system with clean water. 
Note: If the tank is equipped with the proper number of correctly mounted 360
0 
tank­
washing nozzles which are attached to a dedicated rinsing system, less than a full tank of 
cleaning solution may be used. Use sufficient cleaning solution to thoroughly rinse all 
surfaces. Start the sprayer agitation and recirculate the cleaning solution for at least 15 
minutes. Flush the spray boom with the cleaning solution. Repeat the rinsing procedure 
1-2 times. 
A11976E USED ALONE 
Adding ammonium sulfate to the spray solution of AI1976E may increase the performancfl 
against emerged annual weeds growing under adverse conditions. When using ammcI;iuTI;' 
sulfate. add 2 percent spray grade, dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 17 pounds per l,),}· : 
gallons of water. Ammonium sulfate should be added to the water in the S]W\X l,}nk and . 
completely dissolved prior to adding any herbicides. Do not mix ammoni:im'sdfate i.1 ~hly 
fluid fertilizer solutions. Additional surfactants are not required with this pNdutl , , 
• J'" 
When applying A 11976E after emergence, good coverage of weeds with th~ ,~ray mixture is 
essential for maximum weed control results. Observe sprayer nozzles frequently during t.lJe . 
spraying operation to ensure that the spray pattern is uniform. Avoid spraying when cove~~'ge

will not be uniform or when spray drift may occur. Allow adequate distance between the 
target area and desirable, non-target vegetation. Avoid spray overlap, because crop injury 
may result. 
When applied as directed, Al I 976E at 3 ptsJA will control or partially control listed 
broadleaf weeds BEFORE EMERGENCE. A I I 976E may be applied at rates ranging from 
2 V2 to 5 pts./A,. Use 2 V2 pts.lA when weed infestations are expected to be low or when 
atrazine may pose potential carryover concerns. Use 3-5 pts./A when infestations of annual 
broadleaf weeds listed on this label are expected to be high or when longer residual control is 
desired. such as when making early preplant applications.

Preplant Surface or Preemergence Applications to Corn Before or After Weed 
Emergence 
A I I 976E should be applied before or after planting all types of com grown under no-tillage 
or other reduced tillage practices, and prior to emergence of com that is not specifically 
designated as Roundup Ready. For best results, apply A 11976E at 2 1/2 to 5 pts.! A, depending 
upon targeted weeds and size, at up to 14 days before planting com, and either before or after 
weed emergence. If A 11976E is applied before planting, to the extent possible, do not move 
treated soil out of the row or move untreated soil to the surface during planting, or weed 
control may be diminished. 
Post Emergence Applications to Roundup Ready Corn Before or After Weed 
Emergence 
WARNING: DO NOT APPLY Al1976E AFTER CORN EMERGES UNLESS THE 
CORN SEED IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNATED AS ROUNDUP READY. FAILURE 
TO COMPLY WITH THIS WARNING WILL CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH TO 
CORN PLANTS. 
AI1976E may be applied broadcast, over-the-top of Roundup Ready com up to a maximum 
com height of 12 inches. Refer to the weed list in the specific use directions for rates. 
A 11976E may occasionally cause minor com leaf bum when applied after emergence of 
Roundup Ready com. After corn emergence do not apply other products tank mixed 
with A11976E. 
Use a nozzle spacing and boom height arrangement that avoids applying an excessive 
rate of A11976E directly over the corn-row. Boom height for broadcast over-the-top 
application should be based upon the height of the com, and should follow the nozzle 
manufacturer's recommendations for height abo\'e the target area. 
Avoid all direct or indirect contact (such as spray drift) of Al1976E with vegetation 
other than Roundup Read corn, because injury may occur.

( I) If treated crop is lost due to poor germination, hail, flood, insects, etc., corn or sorghum 
may be replanted immediately. Do not make a second broadcast application of A 11976E, 
If the original application was banded and the second crop is planted in the untreated row 
middles, a second banded treatment may be applied to the previously untreated row 
middles, 
(2) Corn, sorghum, soybean, cotton, or peanut may be planted the spring following treatment 
(3) Soybeans planted the year following application on soils having a calcareous surface layer 
may be injured, 
(4) To avoid soybean injury in eastern parts of North or South Dakota, Kansas, western 
Minnesota, and Nebraska, do not rotate to soybeans for 18 months following application 
if A 11976E applied in combination with atrazine delivered more than 2,0 Ibs, aj,/ A of 
atrazine, or equivalent band application rate, 
(5) To avoid crop injury, if AI1976E was applied after June 10, do not rotate with crops 
other than corn or sorghum the next 
(6) In the High Plains and Intermountain areas of the West, where rainfall is sparse and 
erratic or where irrigation is required, use only when corn or sorghum is to follow corn, or 
a crop of untreated corn or sorghum is to precede other rotational crops, 
(7) To avoid injury, do not plant sugar beets, tobacco, vegetables (including dry beans), 
spring-seeded small grains, or small-seeded legumes the year following application,
