ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 
For terrestrial uses, do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to 
intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift 
from target area. Spray equipment used in applying this product should be thorol,lghly cleaned before 
using for any other purpose. Use repeated flushing with soap and warm water or suitable chemical 
cleaner. It is best to use a separate sprayer for application of insecticides and fungicides. Do not 
contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal of washwaters. 
This product is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Drift or runoff may adversely affect aquatic invertebrates 
and nontarget plants. Do not apply directly.to water except as specified on this label. 
Groundwater Contamination: Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides 
such as 2,4-0 have been associated with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be 
exercised when handling 2,4-0 pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater 
supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of 
spills. Placement of the mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help 
prevent groundwater contamination. 
This product may cause injury to desirable plants by contacting foliage, stems or roots. Use care in 
all applications to avoid surface water or soil transport to nontarget plant areas. Avoid contamination 
of irrigation or domestic water supplies. Although this product is a low volatile formulation, at high 
temperatures (about 85 degrees or higher), vapors from this product may injure susceptible plants 
growing nearby such as cotton, grapes, tobacco, fruittrees, legumes, vegetables, and ornamentals.

Avoid applications in the vicinity of susceptible plants or when winds are blowing toward nearby 
susceptible plants or when temperature inversions are expected. Avoid direct application or spray 
drift to susceptible plants since very small quantities of this herbicide can cause severe injury in the 
growing or dormant period. Plants contacted may be killed or suffer significant injury resulting in 
grade or yield losses. Do not apply in greenhouses. 
The following steps may be helpful in reducing possible spray drift from ground or aerial applications: 
1. keep the spray discharge as near to the target as possible while getting good coverage, 
2. increase the volume of spray mixture per acre, 
3. use low spraying pressures (as measured at the nozzle tips), 
4. use nozzles which produce coarse spray droplets while still providing adequate weed 
coverage, 
5. limit applications when wind is blowing toward nearby susceptible crops or valuable plants, 
6. make applications when wind velocity is more favorable for on-target deposition - a general 
guide for application would be a) wind velocity of 0-2 mph may indicate a temperature 
inversion which can permit drift; b) wind velocity of 3-7 mph usually indicates good 
conditions, but check wind direction relative to nearby susceptible crops always allowing for 
wind shift, c) wind velocity 7-10 mph is acceptable if wind direction is favorable and no 
susceptible crops are in the vicinity always allowing for wind shift, d) wind velocity of 10-15 
mph is usually not desirable except in areas of stronger prevailing winds when direction is 
favorable and no susceptible crops are in the Vicinity always allowing for wind shift; an 
agriculturally accepted drift retardant is suggested, and e) if wind velocity is over 15 mph do 
not spray, 
_ 7. properly maintain and calibrate all spray equipment, 
8. for aerial applications, use an effective spray boom length that is no more than 75% of the 
wingspan or rotor diameter, and 
9. use an agriculturally accepted drift retardant designed to increase droplet size. 
CHEMIGATION PROHIBITION 
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. 
DIRECTIONS FOR USE 
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. 
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or 
through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements 
specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS 
BARRAGE is an emulsifiable concentrate formulation intended for dilution in water for many 
applications. For certain specified applications, liquid fertilizer or oil may replace part or all of the 
water as diluent. 
If dry flowable (OF), wettable powder (WP) or flowable (F) tank mix products are to be used, these 
should generally be added to the spray tank first. Refer to the mixing directions on the labels of the 
tank mix products. 
, 
For best results, thoroughly clean sprayer immediately after use by flushing system with water and 
heavy duty detergent such as Helena Chemical Company Wipeout. 
Water Spray: To prepare a water spray mixture,fill clean spray tank about 1/2 to 213 full with clean 
water. With agitation turned on, add the required amount of BARRAGE. Continue agitation while 
adding balance of water and during spray operations. NOTE: In water this product forms an 
emulsion and can separate upon prolonged standing. If spray mixture is allowed to stand, agitate 
again to assure uniformity. 
Liquid Fertilizer Spray: Due to increased risk of crop fOliage bum with fertilizer, use only as 
recommended on this label or supplemental labeling distributed for BARRAGE. Use fertilizer rate 
recommended locally. Fill clean spray tank about 1/2 to 213 full with liquid nitrogen fertilizer (UAN or

urea) solution. Add required amount of product with vigorous agitation running. Continue agitation 
while adding balance of liquid fertilizer and during spray operations. Application should be made 
immediately. Overnight storage of mixture is not recommended. Application during very cold (near 
freezing) temperatures is not advisable because of the likelihood of crop injury. This product is 
formulated to be compatible with most liquid nitrogen solutions, however, due to variability in 
fertilizers, users may wish to perform a jar compatibility test before large scale mixing . 
. ' 
Oil Spray: Use only as recommended on this label or supplemental labeling distributed for 
BARRAGE. Fill clean spray tank about 1/2 to 213 full with diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or other 
suitable oil. Add required amount of product with agitation turned on. Continue agitation while adding 
balance of oil. The resulting mixture is a solution and will generally remain uniform without agitation 
once mixed. However, agitation is suggested if available. Do not allow any water to get into the 
spray mixture to avoid formation of an invert emulsion (mayonnaise consistency). 
Water Spray With Oil: Use only as recommended on this label or supplemental labeling distributed 
for BARRAGE. Where a combination of water and oil diluent is recommended, the use of 
,mulsifiable crop oil or crop oil concentrate is suggested since mild agitation will be sufficient. Mix in 
the sequence of water, product, and oil. If diesel or other nonemulsified oils listed above under "Oil 
Spray" are desired for use with water, add no more than 1 quart of such oil per 1 gallon of water and 
agitate vigorously until tank if emptied. If possible, premix nonemulsified oil with this product and add 
this premix to a mostly filled spray tank with agitation on. Follow these procedures carefully to avoid 
formation of an invert emulsion (mayonnaise consistency). 
APPLICATION PROCEDURES 
Use calibrated spray equipment for all types of applications to assure applying the recommended 
amount of spray mixture per acre. Use sufficient spray volume within the ranges specified to obtain 
good coverage of weeds. BARRAGE is absorbed sufficiently within 1 hour after application to 
provide adequate weed control. 
Ground Broadcast Spray: Unless otherwise specified in the appropriate crop or noncrop directions, 
apply in 5 or more gallons of spray solution per acre. Use enough spray volume to provide uniform 
coverage of weeds, taking into account the amount of vegetation present the type of application 
equipment to be used. As crop canopy and weed density increase, a higher spray volume may be 
needed for equivalent coverage and weed control. Typical crop applications utilize 10 to 50 gallons of 
spray per acre while certain high volume noncrop applications may utilize more than 100 gallons per 
acre. Use coarse sprays to minimize potenital spray drift. Do not apply with hollow cone nozzles or 
other nozzles that produce fine spray droplets. Boom spraying with flat fan or low volume nozzles are 
generally most suitable for ground broadcast applications. 
Ground Band Spray: Determine band equivalents to broadcast rates and volumes by the following 
formulas: 
Band width in inches 
Row width in inches 
Band width in inches 
Row width in inches 
x 
x 
Broadcast· = 
rate per acre 
Broadcast =

Aerial Broadcast Spray: Unless otherwise specified in the appropriate crop or noncrop directions, 
apply in 1 to 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. For best coverage and weed control, as well as 
reduced potential for spray drift, a minimum of 3 gallons per acre is suggested. Avoid using nozzles

or nozzle configurations that generate fine droplets. One configuration usually found to be suitable 
includes straight stream nozzles (such as disk with no swirl plate) directed straight back along the 
windstream. Mechanical flagging or GPS (Global Positioning Systems) systems are suggested to 
obtain more uniform application. 
With fixed-wing or helicopter application, an exactly even swath deposition may not be achieved, and 
consequently, crop injury or,pesticide nonperformance may result wholly or in part. Do not apply by 
air during periods of thermal inversion. Avoid application if potential for drift is excessive and/or 
susceptible crops are growing in the vicinity. 
TANK MIXES 
Unless otherwise prohibited on this label or the label of an intended tank mix product, thisproduct may 
be applied in combination with any herbicide registered for the same crop, timing, and method of 
application. Observe the most restrictive label statements of various tank mix products used. 
LIABILITY FOR CROP INJURY RESULTING FROM A TANK MIXTURE NOT SPECIFIED ON THIS 
LABEL, OR SUPPLEMENTAL LABELING DISTRIBUTED FOR BARRAGE, IS SPECIFICALLY 
,)ISCLAIMED BY HELENA CHEMICAL COMPANY. 
COMPATIBILITY 
Before full-scale mixing of this product with other herbicides, fertilizer solutions and adjuvants, it is 
advisable to determine the compatibility of the proposed mixture. Use proportionate quantities of 
each ingredient and mix in a small container. Always mix one product thoroughly with the diluent 
- before adding another product. If no incompatibility is evident after 30 minutes, the mixture is 
generally compatible for spraying. 
PLANTING IN TREATED AREAS 
Labeled Crops: Within 29 days following an application of this product, plant only those crops named 
as use sites on this or other registered 2,4-D labels. Follow more specific limitations, if any, provided 
in the directions for individual crops. Labeled crops may be at risk for crop injury or loss when 
planted soon after application, especially in the first 14 days. Degradation factors described below 
should be considered in weighing this risk. 
Other Crops: All other crops may be planted 30 or more days following an application without 
concem for illegal residues in the planted crop. However, under certain conditions, there may be a 
risk of injury to susceptible crops. Degradation factors described below should be considered in 
weighing this risk. Under normal conditions, any crop may be planted without risk of injury if at least 
90 days of soil temperatures above freezing have elapsed since application. 
Degradation Factors: When planting into treated areas, the risk of crop injury is less if lower rates of 
product were applied and conditions following application have included warm, moist soil conditions 
that favor rapid degradation of 2,4-D. Risk is greater if higher rates of product were applied and soil 
temperatures have been cold and/or soils have been excessively wet or dry in the days following 
application. Consult your local Agricultural Extension Service for information about susceptible crops 
and typical soil conditions in your area. 
APPLICATIONS 
Read all preceding general sections of label and Warranty before use. 
Unless otherwise specified, applications may be made by ground or air equipment. Ground 
applications may provide more thorough coverage and better weed control. For selective 
postemergent weed control in crops, do not add oil, surfactant, fertilizer or other additives unless 
specifically recommended on this label or supplemental labeling.

( 
CORN (Field, Sweet and Pop) 
This product may be applied to corn at several different timings. In all cases, plant com to a uniform 
depth of at least 1Y2 inches. Avoid applying this product with Accent® SP Herbicide because severe 
grass control antagonism may occur. Apply this product at least 7 days before or 3 days after Accent 
SP Herbicide. 
Accent® is a registered trad.E!mark of E. I. DuPont de Nemours & Co., Inc. 
Preplant: To control existing broad leaf weed seedlings or burn down susceptible cover crops prior to 
planting, apply from 7 to 14 days before planting. To control grasses and certain other problem 
weeds, it may be desirable to use a tank mixture with other herbicides. Liquid fertilizers an.d 
agriculturally approved surfactants may be added. Observe the most restrictive label statements of 
various tank mix products used. 
Corn Preplant Application Rates: Do not apply on fine or medium textured soils (silt & clay loams) 
with less than 1 % organic matter or on coarse textured soils (sand, sandy loam, loamy sand) with 
i )SS than 2% organic matter. For fine or medium textured soils with 1 % or more organic matter, apply 
at a rate of 6 to 19 fluid ounces per acre. On coarse" textured soils with 2% or more organic matter, 
apply 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre. 
Preemergence: To control small broadleaf weeds, apply after planting, but before corn emerges. 
Liquid fertilizers and agriculturally approved surfactants may be added. Do not apply preemergence if 
, a preplant application of this product was made. 
Corn Preemergence Application Rates: Do not apply on fine or medium textured soils (silt & clay 
loams) with less than 1% organic matter or on coarse textured soils (sand, sandy loam, loamy sand) 
with less than 2% organic matter. For fine or medium textured soils with 1 % or more organic matter, 
apply at a rate of 6 to 16 fluid ounces per acre. On coarse" textured soils with 2% or more organic 
matter, apply 6 fluid ounces per acre. 
"Due to the lower rate, partial weed control may result on coarse soils. 
20stemergence: General Information - Do not apply with liquid fertilizer or oil. Many types of 
adjuvants will increase risk of crop injury. Where an adjuvant is required because of a tank mixing 
with another herbicide, use the lowest recommended concentration of a nonionic surfactant (often 
0.25% vol.lvol. or less) to minimize such risk. Treated crop may be brittle and subject to breaking by 
wind and/or cultivation, especially in the 2 weeks following application. 
Early Postemergence: To control small broad leaf weeds, apply broadcast from spike to 4-leaf stage 
of crop or up to 8 inches tall, whichever comes first. Avoid spraying just after corn leaves unfold. 
Postemergence application should not follow a preplant or preemergence application by less than 3 
weeks. Use rates stipulated under "Corn Postemergence Application Rates" below. 
Late Postemergence: Typical timing for this application is when most broad leaf weeds are no more 
than 4 to 6 inches tall and corn is between 8 and 16 inches tall. The timing can extend until corn is 36 
inches tall or to tasseling, whichever comes first, but weeds usually become too large and hard to 
control. Perennial weeds should be in the bud to bloom stage for best results. Apply as a directed 
spray using drop nozzles to keep spray off crop foliage. Do not apply from tasseling to hard dough 
stage. Use the following rates. 
Corn Postemergence Application Rates: Spike to 4-leaf or up to 8 inches tall apply by ground or 
aerially as an early postemergence over-the-top broadcast spray at 3 to 10 fluid ounces per acre.

When corn is 8-36 inches tall, before tasseling, apply by ground only as a late postemergence 
directed spray using drop nozzles at 5 to 10 fluid ounces per acre. 
Lowest rates may not provide adequate weed control unless used in a tank mix with another 
registered herbicide. 
Preharvest: After the hard dough (or denting) stage when silks have turned brown, apply 13 to 26 
fluid ounces per acre to suppress perennial weeds such as hemp dogbane or field bindweed, and 
many tall weeds such as coc'klebur, pigweed, and sunflower that interfere with harvest. Weed seed 
production will also be suppressed if application is prior to the flowering stage of weeds. The high rate 
is recommended under dry conditions. Do not forage or feed corn fodder for 7 days following 
application. 
Postharvest: Following the harvest of corn, perennial or biennial weeds produce new fall growth. To 
aid in suppressing these weeds before a hard freeze, product may be applied at the rate of 13 to 26 
fluid ounces per acre either alone or in a combination with other registered herbicides such as certain 
formulations of dicamba and picloram. See "Planting in Treated Areas" section. If products to be 
'ank mixed have more restrictive limitations, these limitations should be followed. 
SORGHUM (Milo-Grain) 
Postemergence: To control small broadleaf weeds, apply when sorghum is 6 to 15 inches tall to top 
of canopy. If sorghum is taller than 8 inches to top of canopy, use drop nozzles to keep spray off crop 
fOliage. Do not treat during the boot, flowering or early dough stages. Do not forage or feed fodder 
_ for 7 days following application. Use rates that follow. 
Sorghum (Milo) Postemergence Application Rates: When crop is 6 to 8 inches tall use as an over­
the-top broadcast spray by ground or air at 3 to 10 fluid ounces per acre. When corn reaches 8 to 15 
inches tall, use as a directed spray using drop nozzles with application by ground only at 5 to 10 fluid 
ounces per acre. The lowest rates may not provide adequate weed control unless used in a tank 
mixture with another registered herbicide. Highest rates may increase risk of injury. 
SORGHUM-SUDAN GRASS HYBRIDS (Forage Crop Only) 
Postemergence: To control small broadleaf weeds, apply when sorghum-sudan has at least 6 
leaves, is well established, and is 5 to 10 inches tall at the rate of 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre. Do 
not treat crop over 10 inches tall through maturity. 
Plant Response: Evenwhen sprayed at the proper stage, some crop injury is likely, including reduced 
seed production. If risk of crop injury is unacceptable, do not use this product. The lower rate may 
reduce the risk of crop injury, but will result in reduced weed control.

*Refer to the previous section (Suggested 2-way tank mix combinations) and the registered product 
labels to determine the specific small grain crops which may be treated. 
Spring Wheat and Barley 
Onset of Tillering Stage: Grains are generally tolerant of these treatments, but risk of cropinjury is 
greater than at full tillering stage. Do not make application if the risk of injury is unacceptable. The 
onset of tillering stage is defined as grain having 1 or more tillers as well as 3 or more leaves. 
Apply 6 to 10 fluid ounces per acre in the spring when grain has 1 or more tillers as well as 3 or more 
leaves. Do not apply from boot to dough stage.

Full Tillering Stage: For these applications, full tiIIering stage is defined as grain that has 3 or more 
tillers and the flag leaf should not be visible. 
Apply 6 to 13 fluid ounces of product per acre when grain is in the full tiller stage (usually 4 to 8 
inches tall). Do not apply from boot to dough stage. 
Emergency Weed Control: Io control difficult weed problems in certain area, such as under dry 
conditions especially in Westem areas, higher rates, up to 26 fluid ounces per acre, may be needed. 
Higher rates increase the risk of crop injury. The severity of the weed problem should be balanced 
against the possibility of crop injury. Do not apply before the tiller stage nor from boot to dough stage. 
Winter Wheat, Barley and Rye 
Onset of Tillering Stage: Grains are generally tolerant of these treatments, but risk of crop injury is 
greater than at full tillering stage. Do not make application if the risk of injury is unacceptable. 
Apply 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre in the spring when grain has 1 or more tillers as well as 3 or more 
'eaves. Do not apply from boot to dough stage. 
Full Tillering Stage: For these applications, grain should have 3 or more tillers and the flag should not 
be visible. 
Apply 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre when grain is in the full tiller stage (usually 4 to 8 inches tall). Do 
- not apply from boot to dough stage. 
Emergency Weed Control: For improved control of difficult weeds and heavy weed infestations, apply 
up to 26 fluid ounces per acre. Higher rates increase the risk of crop injury. The severity of the weed 
problem should be balanced against the possibility of crop injury. Do not apply before the tiller stage 
nor from boot to dough stage. 
Spring Seeded Oats 
Full Tillering Stage: Grains should have 3 or more tillers and the flag leaf should not be visible. Oats 
are less tolerant to BARRAGE than wheat or barley and present a greater risk of crop injury. The 
severity of the weed problem should be balanced against the possibility of crop injury. Larger weeds 
and hard-to-kill weeds may be poorly controlled, especially under dry conditions. 
Apply 6 fluid ounces per acre when grain is in the full tiller stage as specified above. Do not apply 
before the tiller stage nor from boot to dough stage. 
Fall Seeded Oats (Southern) Grown for Grain 
Apply 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre after full tillering, but prior to jOints forming in the stem. Do not 
apply until after full tillering nor from jointing to dough stage. Oats are less tolerant to BARRAGE 
than wheat or barley and present a greater risk of crop injury. The severity of the weed problem 
should be balanced against the possibility of crop injury, especially at higher rates. Avoid spraying 
during or immediately following cold weather. 
Preharvest Treatment (Wheat, Oats, Barley, Rye) 
Apply 13 to 26 fluid ounces per acre when grains are in the hard dough stage to control large weeds 
that may interfere with harvest. In tank mixtures with other herbicides registered for preharvest 
application, a rate of 6 to 10 fluid ounces per acre may be desired. Best results will be obtained when 
soil moisture is sufficient to cause succulent weed growth. Addition of a nonionic surfactant, such as 
Induce® or Dyne-AmiC®, usually improves weed control.

Postharvest (Wheat, Oats, Barley, Rye) 
Following harvest, a flush of new weed growth may occur. For control of many annual broad leaf 
species, apply at up to 13 fluid ounces per acre. Certain perennial or biennial weeds may produce 
new fall growth in stubble grain fields. To aid in suppressing these weeds, product may be applied at 
the rate of 13 to 26 fluid ounces per acre either alone or in combination with other registered 
herbicides such as dicamba or picloram. See "Planting In Treated Areas" section. Follow more 
restrictive limitations for tan~.mix products used.

FALLOW LAND 
Fallowland or land idle between crops may be subject to unwanted weed growth. For control of many 
annual broadleaf species, apply at the rate of 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre. To aid in suppressing 
ertain perennial or biennial broadleaf weeds, this product may be applied at the rate of 13 to 26 fluid 
ounces per acre either alone or in combination with other registered herbicides such as dicamba or 
picloram. Use the high rate on older plants, drought stressed plants or for hard to kill species. See 
"Planting In Treated Areas" section. Follow more restrictive limitations for tank mix products used. 
BARRAGE may be used to kill fall alfalfa stands in preparation for spring planting of row crops under 
conservation tillage. The treated alfalfa crop cannot be grazed, fed to livestock or cut for hay. 
SOYBEANS (PREPLANT ONLY) 
For use in crop residue management systems: Apply 9.6 to 12.8 ounces not less than 7 days prior 
to planting soybeans or 12.8 to 25.6 ounces not less than 30 days prior to planting. For best weed 
control, apply to postemergent weeds when small, actively growing, and free of stress caused by 
extremes in climatic conditions, diseases, or insect damage. The response of individual weed 
species is variable. Consult your local county agent or state Agricultural Extension Service or crop 
consultant for advice. Use the higher rate on larger weeds when perennials are present.

USE RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 
Do not apply this product prior to planting soybeans if you are not prepared to accept the results of 
soybean injury, including the possible loss of stand and yield. 
Do not use on low organic sandy soils (less than 1%). 
Do not apply this product when weather conditions such as temperature, air inversions, or wind favor 
drift from treated areas to susceptible plants. 
Do not mow or cultivate weeds prior to treating with this product as poor control may result. 
Do not use any tillage operations between application and planting. 
Do not feed treated hay, forage, or fodder. Restrict livestock from grazing treated fields. Do not feed 
or graze treated cover crops to livestock. 
Only one application may be made prior to planting soybeans per growing season. 
Do not replant fields treated with this product in the same growing season with crops other than those 
labeled for 2,4-0 use. 
_ GRASS PASTURES 
To control many emerged broadleaf weeds, apply 6 to 19 fluid ounces per acre. Addition of a 
non ionic surfactant, such as Induce® or Dyne-AmiC®, usually improves weed control. Preferred 
timing is in the early spring when sufficient weeds have emerged, and when weeds are small and 
actively growing, but before weeds are too mature. Summer applications to older, drought stressed 
weeds are less effective. However, weeds are more susceptible again in the fall when cooler, wetter 
conditions support active growth before a killing frost. For fall treatment of mature weeds or perennial 
weed regrowth, use up to 26 fluid ounces per acre. Several seasons of spring plus fall treatments 
may be necessary to control certain perennials. 
Plant Response: Injury may result to bent grass, other warm season or southem grasses, and alfalfa, 
clover or other legumes. Do not use if this risk of injury is unacceptable. Clovers may recover from 
early spring applications. If grass seed production is desired, .do not apply when grass is in boot to 
milk stage or after heading begins. Do not apply to newly seeded areas until grass is well 
established. Reseeding is not recommended for at least 30 days following application. Addition of a 
surfactant may increase the risk of injury to newly seeded grasses. 
Livestock Feeding Restrictions: Do not graze dairy animals on treated areas within 7 days after 
application. Do not graze meat animals on treated areas within 3 days of slaughter. Do not cut 
treated grass for hay within 30 days of application. 
GRASS SEED CROPS 
To control many emerged broadleaf weeds, apply 6 to 19 fluid ounces per acre. Use onestablished 
stands of cool season grass seed crops, such as bentgrass, bluegrass, fine fescue, tall fescues, 
orchard grass, annual ryegrass, and perennial ryegrass. Make applications in the spring from the 
tiller to early boot stage. Do not spray in boot stage. New spring seedings may be treated after the 
grasses have more than 5 true leaves. On established stands that have had the seed crop removed, 
perennial weed regrowth may be treated in the fall at up to 26 fluid ounces per acre. Refer to "Plant 
Response" and "Livestock Feeding Restrictions" under GRASS PASTURES section above.

SOD FARMS 
For best results, do not mow turf 1 to 2 days before or after application. Turf watering should be 
delayed 
until the day after application. Do not apply to newly seeded areas until grass is well established and 
has been mowed several times. A period of about 30 days after application is usually a sufficient 
interval before reseeding. Seeding a small area and observing response is recommended before 
large scale seeding. 
Cool Season Grasses: To control many emerged broadleaf weeds in cool season turfgrasses such 
as tall fescue, bluegrass, or perennial ryegrass, apply 6 to 19 fluid ounces per acre. Apply. when 
weeds are small and actively growing under good moisture conditions. Do not use on centipede, 
carpetgrass, St. Augustine, bentgrasss, or Dichondra turf, or where desirable clovers are present. 
RANGELAND PASTURES AND PERENNIAL GRASSLANDS NOT IN AGRICULTURAL 
PRODUCTION 
'IARRAGE can be used to control or suppress a number of susceptible broad leaf weeds in rangeland 
or perennial grasslands that are set aside from agricultural use such as in the Conservation Reserve 
Program (CRP) or similar govemment programs. Consult program rules to determine whether grass 
and hay may be used. For best results, apply when broadleaf weeds are small. Adequate moisture 
is needed for best grass tolerance and weed control. Addition of a nonionic surfactant, such as 
Induce® or Dyne-AmiC®, usually improves weed control. 
Plant Response: Injury to legumes, bentgrass, and other warm season grasses is likely to occur. 
Grasses may be discolored following treatment. If grass seed production is desired, do not apply 
when grass is in boot to milk stage or after heading begins. 
New Stands: Preseeding applications should be made at least 30 days prior to seeding. Newly 
seeded stands should only be treated after they are well established (more than 5 true leaves) or 
injury may occur. Apply 6 to 13 fluid ounces per acre when weeds are small and actively growing. 
i Addition of a surfactant may increase the risk of injury at this stage of growth. 
Established Stands: For optimum results, weeds must be actively growing. Apply 13 to 19 fluid 
ounces per acre for annual weeds and up to 26 fluid ounces per acre for biennial or perennial weeds. 
Treat biennial weeds when they are in the seedling to rosette stage and before flower stalks become 
apparent. Treat perennial weeds in the bud to bloom stage. For brush species in rangeland, apply 
up to 51 fluid ounces per acre in an oil spray (see "Mixing Instructions"). Another option is to add 1 
gallon of oil per acre to a BARRAGE water spray (see "Mixing Instructions"). Repeat applications in 
the same or subsequent year may be needed to control brush species. 
Livestock Feeding Restrictions: Do not graze dairy animals on treated areas within 7 days of 
application. Do not graze meat animals within 3 days of slaughter. Treated grass cut for hay should 
not be cut within 30 days of application. Forgovemment program grasslands, follow program grazing 
restrictions if more restrictive than those stated above. 
FOREST MANAGEMENT 
Forest Site Preparation 
Budbreak Spray: For control of alder, susceptible broadleaf weeds, and susceptible woody plants 
before planting forest seedlings, apply up to 96 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons 
spray mixture per acre. Apply as an oil spray (see "Mixing Instructions") after alder buds break, but

before foliage is 1/4 full size. A water spray including 2 to 4 quarts per acre of diesel oil, fuel oil, stove 
oil, or crop oil concentrate may also be used. 
Foliage Spray: To control alder and susceptible woody plants before planting forest seedlings, apply 
up to 96 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. If desired, apply as 
a water spray including up to 1 quart of diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or crop oil concentrate per gallon 
of water (see "Mixing Instruc::!ions"). For best results, apply after alder foliage has reached full size. 
Conifer Release: To control alder, susceptible broadleaf weeds, and susceptible woody plants in 
young conifer stands, apply up to 51 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture 
per acre. This spring foliage treatment should be applied as a water spray when 3/4 of the brush 
foliage has full size leaves and before new conifer growth reaches 2 inches in length. Such stages 
usually occur between early May and mid-June, but application timing should be based on growth 
stages of brush and conifers. Application may cause leader deformation and other conifer injury, but 
trees should over come it during the next growing season. 
(.,< TO control tanoak, madrone, ceanothus, canyon live oak, and manzanita, and to release Douglas fir, 
, hemlock, Sitka spruce or grand fir, apply up to 77 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons 
spray mixture per acre. This spring foliage treatment should be applied as a water spray including, if 
desired, up to 1 quart of diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or crop oil concentrate per gallon of water (see 
"Mixing Instructions"). Make application before new growth on Douglas fir is 2 inches long. To 
release ponderosa pine from the same species, treat before new pine growth begins in the spring. 
- Addition of oil or oil concentrate may cause unacceptable injury to pines. For dormant applications in 
late winter or early spring for control of susceptible woody species such as alder, willow, poplars, 
cherry, vine maple, ceanothus, tanoak, madrone, and manzanita, apply up to 77 fluid ounces per acre 
in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. This dormant treatment should be applied in 
diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or other suitable diluent such as water plus crop oil concentrate (see 
"Mixing Instructions"). Do not use in plantations where pine and larch are among the desired crop 
species. 
To control hazel brush in the Lake states, apply up to 51 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 
(' " gallons spray mixture per acre. Apply as a water spray when new shoot growth of hazel is complete 
< (usually mid-July). 
After conifer species such as white pine, ponderosa pine, jack pine, red pine, black spruce, white 
spruce, red spruce, and balsam fir crease growth and harden off and brush is still actively growing in 
late summer, apply up to 74 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. 
Apply as a water spray to control certain competing hardwoods such as alder, aspen, birch, hazel and 
willow. However, if possible injury cannot be tolerated, do not use since this treatment may cause 
conifer injury. : 
Forest Roadsides: To control susceptible broadleaf weeds and woody plants on forest roadsides, 
apply 26 to 77 fluid ounces per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. Apply as a 
water spray and, if desired, include up to 3 quarts per acre of diesel oil, fuel oil, stove oil, or crop oil 
concentrate (see "Mixing Instructions"). Apply when sufficient foliage is present for absorption. 
Established Conifers (including Christmas trees) 
Directed Spray or Spot Spray: To control susceptible broadleaf weeds, mix up to 51 fluid ounces per 
100 gallons of water and apply to emerged weeds in the spring with ground equipment. Avoid 
contacting conifer foliage with spray or drift as injury may result. For brush, mix 96 fluid ounces per 
100 gallons of water. Thoroughly spray brush in full foliage, but avoid contacting conifer foliage with 
spray or drift. Do not apply more than the equivalent of 96 fluid ounces per acre.

Over-the- Top Broadcast Application - To control susceptible broadleaf weeds, apply 26 fluid ounces 
per acre in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. To decrease the potential for injury to 
firs, apply only before budbreak in the spring and/or after complete bud set and hardening in the late 
summer or fall. Avoid treatment during the year of intended harvest.

For control of many broadleaf weeds and small woody plants, apply 13 to 51 fluid ounces per acre. 
Use the high rate for woody plants. Applications may be as broadcast sprays, small area sprays or 
spot treatments. For small areas or spot spraying, use 3 fluid ounces per gallon of water and spray 
weeds to runoff. Regardless of the method of application, use adequate spray volume for full 
coverage of weeds. Preferred application timing is in the early spring when sufficient weeds have 
3merged, and when weeds are small and actively growing, but before weeds are too mature. 
Summer applications to older, drought stressed weeds are less effective. However, weeds are more 
susceptible again in the fall when cooler, wetter conditions support active growth before a killing frost. 
For fall treatment of mature weeds or perennial weed regrowth, use up to 26 fluid ounces per acre. 
Several seasons of spring plus fall treatments may be necessary to control certain perennials. Use of 
oil sprays or the addition of spray adjuvants improves weed control, but also increases the risk of 
- damage to desirable ground covers. 
Plant Response: Bent grass, other warm season or southem grasses, alfalfa, clover, or other 
legumes may be killed or injured. Do not apply when grass is in boot to milk stage, or after heading 
begins, if grass production is desired. Do not apply to newly seeded areas until grass is well 
established. Reseeding is not recommended for at least 30 days following application. 
ORNAMENTAL AND RECREATIONAL TURFGRASSES, LAWNS, GOLF COURSES (Fairways, 
Aprons, Tees, and Roughs), PARKS AND CEMETERIES 
Refer to "Turf Use Requirements" in the "Non-Agricultural Use Requirements" section. The maximum 
number of broadcast applications per treatment site is 2 per year. For best results, do not mow turf 1 
to 2 days before or after application. Turf watering should be delayed for at least 1 hour after 
application. Avoid contacting desirable trees, shrubs, flowers or vegetables since plant injury may 
result. Do not apply to newly seeded areas until grass is well established and has been mowed 
several times. A period of about 30 days after application is usually a sufficient interval before 
reseeding grasses (or other plants). Seeding a small area and observing response is recommended 
before large scale seeding. 
Cool Season Grasses: To control many emerged broad leaf weeds in cool season turfgrasses such 
as tall fescue, bluegrass, or perennial ryegrass, apply 13 to 19 fluid ounces per acre (0.3 to 0.44 fluid 
ounces per 1,000 square feet). Preferred application timing for broadcast treatment is in the early 
spring when small weeds have emerged and are actively growing under good moisture conditions. 
For very weedy turf, a follow-up broadcast or spot application may be needed from 2 to 4 weeks later. 
Summer applications are typically spot treatments of individual weeds that have emerged after a 
spring broadcast treatment. In the fall when cooler, wetter conditions factor active weed growth, 
broadcast application may be appropriate for very weedy turf, such as an area that had no spring 
broadcast treatment. Do not use on centipede, carpetgrass, St. Augustine, bentgrass or Dichondra 
turf, or where desirable clovers are present.
