5.0 GENERAL INFORMA nON 
(How This Product Works) 
Product Description: This product is a postemergent, systemic herbicide with no soil residual activity. It is 
generally non·selective and gives broad-spectrum control of many annual weeds, perennial weeds, woody 
brush and trees. It is formulated as a liquid for mixing with water. It may be applied through most standard 
industrial or field-type sprayers after dilution and thorough mixing with water or other carriers according to 
label instructions. 
Time to Symptoms: This product moves through the plant from the point offoliage contact to and into the 
root system. Visible effects on most annual weeds occur within 1 to 3 days, but on most perennial weeds may 
not occur for 7 days or more. Extremely cool or cloudy weather following treatment may slow activity of this 
product and delay development of visual symptoms. Visible effects are a gradual wilting and yellowing of the

plant which advances to complete browning of above-ground growth and deterioration of underground plant 
pans. 
Stage of Weeds: Annual weeds are easiest to control when they are small. Best control of most perennial 
weeds is obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages approaching maturity. Refer to the "ANNUAL 
WEEDS", "PERENNIAL WEEDS", and "WOODY BRUSH AND TREES RATE TABLES" for 
recommendations for specific weeds. 
Always use the higher rate of this product per acre within the recommended range when weed growth is heavy 
or dense or weeds are growing in an undisturbed (noncultivated) area. 
Do not treat weeds under poor growing conditions such as drought stress, disease or insect damage, as reduced 
weed control may result. Reduced results may also occur when treating weeds heavily covered with dust. 
Cultural Considerations: Reduced control may result when applications are made to annual or perennial 
weeds that have been mowed, grazed, or cut, and have not been allowed to regrow to the recommended stage 
for treatment. 
Rainfastness: Heavy rainfall soon after application may wash this product off of the foliage and a repeat 
application may be required for adequate control. 
Spray Coverage: For best results, spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray weed foliage 
to the point of runoff. 
Tank Mixing: This product does not provide residual weed control. For subsequent residual weed control, 
follow a label-approved herbicide program. Read and carefully observe the cautionary statements and all other 
information appearing on the labels of all herbicides used. Use according to the most restrictive label 
directions for each product in the mixture. 
Buyer and all users are responsible for all loss or damage in connection with the use or handling of mixtures of 
this product with herbicides or other materials that are not expressly recommended in this labeling. Mixing this 
product with herbicides or other materials not recommended on this label may result in reduced performance. 
Annual Maximum Use Rate: Except as otherwise specified in a crop section of this label, the combined total 
of all treatments must not exceed 6 quans of this product per acre per year. The maximum use rates stated 
throughout this product's labeling apply to this product combined with the use of all other herbicides 
containing glyphosate or sulfosate as the active ingredient, whether applied as mixtures or separately. 
Calculate the application rates and ensure that the total use of this and other glyphosate or sulfosate containing 
products does not exceed stated maximum use rate. 
NOTE: Use of this product in any manner not consistent with this label may result in injury to persons, 
animals or crops, or other unintended consequences. 
6.0 MIXING 
Clean sprayer pans immediately after using this product by thoroughly flushing with water. 
NOTE: REDUCED RESULTS MAY OCCUR IF WATER CONTAINING SOIL IS USED, SUCH AS 
VISIBLY MUDDY WATER OR WATER FROM PONDS AND DITCHES THAT IS NOT CLEAR. 
6.1 Mixing with Water 
Master Label 524-LUG 
MON 7848 I Herbicide Page 8 of44 Version:28-Fcb-2003

I. MAIN LABEL FOR FOOD CROP USES 
This product mixes readily with water. Mix spray solutions of this product as follows: Fill the mixing or spray 
tank with the required amount of water. Add the recommended amount of this product near the end of the 
filling process and mix well. Use caution to avoid siphoning back into the carrier source. Use approved anti­
back-siphoning devices where required by state or local regulations. During mixing and application, foaming 
of the spray solution may occur. To prevent or minimize foam, avoid the use of mechanical agitators, terminate 
by-pass and return lines at the bottom of the tank and, if needed, use an approved anti-foam or defoaming 
agent. 
6.2 Tank Mixing Procedure 
Mix labeled tank mixtures of this product with water as follows: 
I. Place a 20- to 35-mesh screen or wetting basket over filling port. 
2. Through the screen, fill the spray tank one-half full with water and start agitation. 
3. If ammonium sulfate is used add it slowly through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation. Ensure 
that dry ammonium sulfate is completely dissolved in the spray tank before adding other products. 
4. If a wettable powder is used, make a slurry with the water carrier, and add it SLOWLY through the 
screen into the tank. Continue agitation. 
5. If a flowable formulation is used, premix one part flowable with one part water. Add diluted mixture 
SLOWLY through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation. 
6. If an emulsifiable concentrate formulation is used, premix one part emulsifiable concentrate with two 
parts water. Add diluted mixture slowly through the screen into the tank. Continue agitation. 
7. Continue filling the spray tank with water and add the required amount of this product near the end of 
the filling process. 
8. If a non ionic surfactant is used, add it to the spray tank before completing the filling process. 
9. Add individual formulations to the spray tank as follows: wettable powder, flowable, emulsifiable 
concentrate, drift control additive, water-soluble liquid followed by surfactant. 
Maintain good agitation at all times until the contents of the tank are sprayed. If the spray mixture is allowed to 
settle, thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before spraying is resumed. 
Keep by-pass line on or near the bottom of the tank to minimize foaming. Screen size in nozzle or line strainers 
should be no finer than 50mesh. 
Always predetermine the compatibility of labeled tank mixtures of this product with water carrier by mixing 
small proportional quantities in advance. 
Refer to the "TANK MIXING" section of "GENERAL INFORMATION" for additional precautions. 
6.3 Mixing for Hand-Held Sprayers

6.4 Surfactants 
When needed, non ionic surfactants (NIS) or wetting agents that have at least 70 percent active ingredient and 
are labeled for use with herbicides may be used at levels up to 0.5% volume to volume (2 quarts NIS per 100 
gallons) of finished spray volume. Do not reduce rates of this herbicide when adding surfactants. Read and 
carefully observe cautionary statements and other information appearing on the additives label. 
6,5 Ammonium Sulfate 
The addition of I to 2 percent dry ammonium sulfate by weight or 8.5 to 17 pounds per 100 gallons of water 
may increase the performance of this product, particularly under hard water conditions, drought conditions or 
when tank mixed with certain residual herbicides, on annual and perennial weeds. The equivalent rate of 
ammonium sulfate in a liquid formulation may also be used. Ensure that dry ammonium sulfate is completely 
dissolved in the spray tank before adding herbicides. Thoroughly rinse the spray system with clean water after 
use to reduce corrosion. 
NOTE: When using ammonium sulfate, apply this product at rates recommended in this label. Lower rates 
will result in reduced performance. 
6,6 Colorants or Dyes 
Agriculturally approved colorants or marking dyes may be added to this product. Colorants or dyes used in 
spray solutions of this product may reduce performance, especially at lower rates or dilutions. Use colorants or 
dyes according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Importance of Droplet Size 
Master Label 524-LUG 
MON 7848 I Herbicide Page II of44 Version:28-Feb-2003

I. MAIN LABEL FOR FOOD CROP USES 
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 the "Wind", ~~Temperature and Humidity", and "Temperature Inversions" 
sections of this label). 
Controlling Droplet Size 
• Volume: Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with the higher 
rated flows produce larger droplets. 
• Pressure: Use the lower spray pressures recommended for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet 
size and 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 nozzles that provide uniform coverage. 
• Nozzle orientation: Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released backwards, parallel to the airstream, 
will produce larger droplets than other orientations. Significant deflection ITom the 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 larger droplets than other nozzle types. 
• 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 aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest 
height that is safe reduces the exposure of the droplets to evaporation and wind. 
Swath Adjustment 
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downward. 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 droplets, etc.). 
Wind 
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 to 10 miles per hour. However, many factors, including 
droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed. Application should be avoided 
below 2 miles per hour 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 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 
Master Label 524~LUG 
MON 78481 Herbicide Page 12 of 44 Version :2S·Feb-2003

• 
I. MAIN LABEL FOR FOOD CROP USES 
Applications should not occur 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, iffog is not present, inversions can 
also be identified by the movement of smoke ITom 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 
The product should only 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, non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. 
when wind is blowing away ITom the sensitive areas). 
Avoid direct application to any body of water. 
Aircraft Maintenance 
Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear, after each day of spraying to remove residues of this 
product accumulated during spraying or ITom spills. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO 
UNCOATED STEEL SURFACES MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE 
PART. LANDING GEAR IS MOST SUSCEPTIBLE. The maintenance of an organic coating (paint), which 
meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38413, may prevent corrosion. 
7.2 Ground Broadcast Equipment 
Use the recommended rates of this product in 3 to 40 gallons of water per acre as a broadcast spray unless 
otherwise specified. As density of weeds increases, spray volume should be increased within the recommended 
range to ensure complete coverage. Carefully select proper nozzles to avoid spraying a fine mist. For best 
results with ground application equipment, use flat spray nozzles. Check for even distribution of spray 
droplets. 
7.3 Hand-Held or High-Volume Equipment 
Apply to foliage of vegetation to be controlled. For applications made on a spray-to-wet basis, spray coverage 
should be uniform and complete. Do not spray to the point of runoff. Use coarse sprays only. For 
recommended rates and timing, refer to the "ANNUAL WEEDS -- HAND-HELD OR HIGH-VOLUME 
EQUIPMENT" section of this product label. 
7.4 Hooded Applicators 
When applied under the conditions described in the following paragraphs for hooded applications, this product 
at recommended rates will control those weeds listed in the "ANNUAL WEEDS RATE TABLE" and 
"PERENNIAL WEEDS RA TE TABLE" sections of this label. A hooded sprayer is a type of applicator where 
the spray pattern is fully enclosed including top, sides, ITont and back, thereby shielding the crop ITom the 
spray solution. Keep hoods on these sprayers adjusted to protect desirable vegetation. When applying to crops 
grown on raised beds, ensure that the hood is designed to completely enclose the spray solution. If necessary, 
extend the ITont and rear flaps of the hoods to reach the ground in deep furrows. EXTREME CARE MUST BE 
EXERCISED TO A VOID CONTACT OF HERBICIDE WITH DESIRABLE VEGETATION. 
Master Label 524-LUG 
MON 78481 Herbicide Page 13 of 44 Version:28·Feb·2003

L MAIN LABEL FOR FOOD CROP USES 
This equipment must be set up and operated in a manner that avoids bouncing or raising the hoods off the 
ground in any way. If the hoods are raised, spray particles may escape and come into contact with the crop, 
causing damage or destruction of the crop. Avoid operation on rough or sloping ground where the.spray hoods 
might be raised off the ground. 
Use hoods designed to minimize excessive dripping or run-off down the insides of the hoods. A single, low 
pressureflow drift flat-fan nozzle with an 80 to 95 degree spray angle positioned at the top center of the hood is 
recommended. Spray volume should be 20 to 30 gallons per acre. 
These procedures will reduce the potential for crop injury: 
• The spray hoods must be operated on the ground or skimming across the ground. 
• Leave at least an 8 inch untreated strip over the drill row. For example, if the crop row width is 38 inches, 
the maximum width of the spray hood should be 30 inches. 
• Maximum tractor speed: 5 miles per hour to avoid bouncing of the spray hoods. 
• Maximum wind speed: 10 miles per hour. 
• Use low-drift nozzles that provide uniform coverage within the treated area. 
Crop injury may occur when the foliage of treated weeds comes into direct contact with leaves of the crop. Do 
not apply this product when the leaves ofthe crop are growing in direct contact with weeds to be treated. 
Droplets, mist, foam or splatter of the herbicide solution may contact the crop and cause discoloration, stunting 
or destruction. 
7.5 Injection Systems 
This product may be used in aerial or ground injection spray systems. It may be used as a liquid concentrate or 
diluted prior to injecting into the spray stream. Do not mix this product with the concentrate of other products 
when using injection systems. 
7.6 CDA Equipment 
The rate of this product applied per acre by vehicle-mounted CDA equipment must not be less than the amount 
recommended in this label when applied by conventional broadcast equipment. For vehicle-mounted CDA 
equipment, apply 2 to 15 gallons of water per acre. 
For the control of annual weeds with hand-held CDA units, apply a 20 percent solution of this product at a 
flow rate of2 fluid ounces per minute and a walking speed of 1.5 miles per hour (I quart per acre). For the 
control of perennial weeds, apply a 20 to 35 percent solution of this product at a flow rate of:? Iluid ounces per 
minute and a walking speed of 0.75 miles per hour (2 to 3.5 qumts per acre). 
Controlled droplet application equipment produces a spray pattern that is not easily visible. Extreme care must 
be exercised to avoid spray or drift contacting the foliage or any other green tissue of desirable vegetation, as 
damage or destruction may result.

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. 
Unless otherwise directed, apply broadcast treatments in 3 to 40 gallons of water per acre. Ensure thorough 
coverage when using hand-held equipment. 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. Some autumn colors on undesirable deciduous 
species are acceptable provided no major leaf drop has occurred. Reduced performance may result if fall 
treatments are made following a frost.

I. MAIN LABEL FOR FOOD CROP USES 
I A. FOR AERIAL APPLICATION IN CALIFORNIA ONLY 
Aerial applications of this product are allowed in fallow, preplant and reduced tillage systems prior to the 
emergence oflabeled crops and in preharvest treatments to Roundup Ready cotton .. 
Do not plant subsequent crops other than those listed in the label booklet for 12 months following application, 
except that root or leafy vegetables may be planted a minimum of30 days following application. 
When applied as recommended under the conditions described, this product controls annual and perennial weeds 
listed in the label booklet. 
When tank mixing this product with 2,4-D for aerial applications, only 2,4-D amine formulations may be used. 
This tank mixture may be used for fallow and reduced tillage systems and alfalfa and pasture renovation 
applications only. 
DO NOT EXCEED A MAXIMUM RATE OF 48 FLUID OUNCES PER ACRE OF THIS PRODUCT WHEN 
MAKING THE LABELED AERIAL APPLICATIONS. 
Aerial Equipment 
Use the recommended rates of this product in 3 to 15 gallons of water per acre. Do not apply directly to water, to 
areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate 
water when disposing of equipment wash waters. 
A VOID DRIFT -DO NOT APPLY WHEN WINDS ARE GUSTY OR UNDER ANY OTHER CONDITION 
WHICH FAVORS DRIFT. DRIFT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO ANY VEGETATION CONTACTED TO 
WHICH TREATMENT IS NOT INTENDED. TO PREVENT INJURY TO ADJACENT DESIRABLE 
VEGETATION, APPROPRIATE BUFFER ZONES MUST BE MAINTAINED. 
Use the following guidelines when aerial applications are made near crops or desirable perennial vegetation after 
bud break and before total leaf drop, andlor near other desirable vegetation or annual crops. 
1. Do not apply within 100 feet of all desirable vegetation or crop(s). 
2. lfwind up to 5 miles per hour is blowing toward desirable vegetation or crop(s), do not apply within 500 
feet of the desirable vegetation or crop(s). 
3. Winds blowing from 5 to 10 miles per hour toward desirable vegetation or crop(s) may require buffer zones 
in excess of 500 feet. 
4. Do not apply when winds are in excess of 10 miles per hour or when inversion conditions exist. 
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift; therefore, do not use nozzles or nozzle configurations that dispense spray as 
fine spray droplets. Do not angle nozzles forward into the air-stream and do not increase spray volume by 
increasing nozzle pressure. Drift control additives may be used. When a drift control additive is used, read and 
carefully observe the cautionary statements and all other information appearing on the additive label. 
Ensure uniform application-To avoid streaking, uneven, or over-lapped application, use appropriate marking 
devices. Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear, after each day of spraying to remove residues of this 
product accumulated during spraying or from spills. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO 
UNCOATED STEEL SURF ACES MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE 
PART. LANDING GEAR IS MOST SUSCEPTIBLE. The maintenance of an organic coating (paint) which 
meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38413 may prevent corrosion.

been satisfied. 
Aerial Applicator Training 
and Equipment 
Aerial application of this product is limited to pilots who have successfully completed a Fresno County 
Agricultural Commissioner and California Department of Pesticide Regulation approved training program for 
aerial application of herbicides. All aircraft must be inspected, critiqued in flight and certified at a Fresno County 
Agricultural Commissioner approved fly-in. Test and calibrate spray equipment at intervals sufficient to insure 
that proper rates of herbicides and adjuvants are being applied during commercial use. Applicator must 
document such calibrations and testing. Demonstration of performance at Fresno County Agricultural 
Commissioner approved fly-ins constitutes such documentation, or other written records showing calculations 
and measurements of flight and spray parameters acceptable to the Fresno County Agricultural Commissioner. 
Applications at Night-Do not apply this product by air earlier than 30 minutes prior to sunrise and/or later 
than 30 minutes after sunset without prior permission from the Fresno County Agricultural Commissioner. 
To report known or suspected misuse of 
this product, call 1-800-332-3111.

WINDS ARE GUSTY OR UNDER ANY OTHER CONDITION THAT FAVORS DRIFT. DRlFT IS LIKELY 
TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO ANY VEGETA nON CONTACTED. TO PREVENT INJURY TO ADJACENT 
DESIRABLE VEGETATION, APPROPRlATE BUFFER ZONES MUST BE MAINTAINED. ~ 
Use the recommended rate ofthis product in 3 to 15 gallons of water per acre. 
Use sufficient carrier volume and appropriate equipment set-up to form droplets large enough to avoid drift 
potential. Coarse droplets in the 300 to 500 (VMD) micron range are recommended. 
Applications should typically be made with the nozzle release point at 8 to 15 feet above the top of the target 
plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. 
The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed 75 percent of the length of the wingspan or 
rotor. In many cases, reducing this distance to 65 percent of the length of the wingspan or rotor will improve 
drift control without affecting the swath width. 
Nozzles must always discharge backward parallel with the air stream and never discharge downwards more than 
45 degrees on fixed wing aircraft or forward of the prevailing airflow on rotary winged aircraft. Avoid the use of 
nozzles with wide-angle discharge. 
Do not apply this product when winds are in excess of 10 miles per hour. 
Do not apply when there is a low-level inversion where fine spray particles could be suspended in still air and 
move outside the target area when the inversion layer moves. These conditions may occur when wind speeds are 
less than 2 miles per hour. 
Use the following guidelines when applications are made near crops or other desirable vegetation: 
I. Do not apply within 100 feet of any desirable vegetation or crops. 
2. Ifwind up to 5 miles per hour is blowing toward desirable vegetation or crops, do not apply within 500 feet 
upwind of the desirable vegetation or crops. 
3. Winds blowing from 5 to 10 miles per hour toward desirable vegetation or crops will likely require buffer 
zones in excess of 500 feet.
