that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection
Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR
170.240 (d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may be
reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Users should:
Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum,
using tobacco or using the toilet.
Remove clothing immediately if pestiCide gets
inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean
clothing.
Remove PPE immediately after handling this
product. Wash the outside of gloves before
removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly
and change into clean clothing.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
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 thoroughly 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 non-target
plants.
Groundwater Contamination: Most cases of groundwater
contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-0
have been associated with mixinglloading 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 non­
target plant areas. Avoid contamination of irrigation or
domestic water supplies.. 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
Page 2 of 13
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
g) Use an agriculturally accepted drift retardant designed
to increase droplet size.

GENERAL INFORMATION
When used as directed, 2025™ provides selective control
of broadleaf weeds in post, fallow, burn-down, Rights-of­
way, and Industrial vegetation management applications.
Local conditions, crop varieties, and application method
may affect perfomnance of this product User· should
consult local extension service, agricultural experiment
station, or university weed specialists, and state regulatory
agencies for recommendations in your area. Best results
are obtained when product is applied to young succulent
weeds that are actively growing. Application rates lower
than recommended will not be satisfactory on susceptible
annual weeds. For perennial weeds and conditions such
as the very dry areas of the western states, where control
is difficult the higher recommended rates should be used.
When product is used for weed control in crops, the growth
stage of the crop must be considered. Some plants and
weeds, especially woody varieties, are hard to control and
may require repeat applications. Application rates should
be 3 to 5 gallons of total spray by air or 10 to 25 gallons by
ground equipment unless otherwise directed. In either
case, use the same amount of 2025™ per acre. 2025™
should not be allowed to come into contact with desirable,
susceptible plants such as beans, cotton, fruit trees,
grapes, legumes, ornamentals, peas, tomatoes and other
vegetables. 2025™ should not be used in greenhouses.
Under wamn moist conditions, herbicide symptoms may be
accelerated and crop responses encountered. To minimize
the potential for crop injury, applications should not be
made within 6-8 hours of either rain or irrigation. The
addition of oil-based adjuvants and surfactants are not
required unless directed otherwise.
If stored below freezing, it may be necessary to wamn
product to 40· and agitate before using. This does not
affect the efficiency of the product Spray equipment used
to apply 2025™ or other products containing 2,4-D should
not be used for any other purpose until thoroughly cleaned
with a suitable chemical cleaner.

2025™ is a water dispersible herbicide concentrate that
forms a macro-emulsion when diluted with water. For
certain specified applications, liquid fertilizer or oil may
replace part or all of the water as a diluent. If dry flowable
(DF), 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 Wipe Ou(®,
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 2025™"
Continue agitation while adding balance of water and
during spray operations, NOTE: In water this product
forms a macro-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 2025™,
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 2025™, Fill clean
spray tank about 1/2 to 213 full with an oil approved for
agricultural use. (diesel, fuel oil, MSO, soybean etc.) 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 2025™.
Page 5 of 13
Where a combination of water and oil diluent is
recommended, the use of emulsifiable 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 non-emulsified 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 is emptied. If possible, premix non­
emulsified 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).
APPUCATION PROCEDURES
.. -e calibrated spray equipment for all types of applications
, assure applying the recommended amount of spray
,nixture per acre. Use sufficient spray volume within the
ranges specified to obtain good coverage of weeds.
2025™ is absorbed sufficiently within 1-4 hours after
application to provide adequate weed control.
_ Ground Broadcast Spray: Unless otherwise specified in
the appropriate crop or non-crop directions, apply in 1 0 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 and 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
JP applications utilize 10 to 50 gallons of spray solution
.'er acre, while certain high volume non-crop applications
may utilize more than 100 gallons per acre. Use coarse
sprays to minimize potential 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 is 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 Broadcast = Band rate
rate per acre per acre
x Broadcast = Band volume
volume per acre per acre
Aerial Broadcast Spray: Unless otherwise specified in
the appropriate crop or non-crop directions, apply in 3 to 5
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 wind stream.
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 this product 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 2025™,
IS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED 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 2,4-0 or carfentrazone-ethyllabels.
Follow more specific limitations, if any, provided in the
Page 6 of 13
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
''lce application.
Jegradation 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
2,4-0. 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 Agricuttural Extension
Service for information about susceptible crops and typical
soil conditions in your area.
APPLICATIONS
QEAD ALL PRECEDING GENERAL SECTIONS OF
\BEL AND WARRANTY BEFORE USE.
Unless otherwise specified, applications may be made by
ground or air equipment Ground applications may provide
more thorough coverage and beller 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 1 Yo inches. Avoid applying this product with Accenl®
SP Herbicide because severe grass control antagonism
may occur. Apply this product at least 7 days before or 3
days after Accenl® SP Herbicide. Note: Do not apply
more than 42 ounces of 2025'" (0.031 pound active
carfentrazone) per acre per season including fallow, pre­
plant burndown and labeled crop applications.
Prep/ant: To control existing broadleaf 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 and
agricutturally approved surfactants may be added.
Observe the most restrictive label statements of various
tank mix products used.
Application Rates: Do not apply on fine or medium
textured soils (silt & clay loams) with less than 1% organic
mailer 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 8 - 12 ounces per acre. On coarse"
textured soils with 2% or more organic matter, apply 5 -12
ounces per acre.
Preemergence: To control small broadleaf weeds, apply
after planting, but before com emerges. Liquid fertilizers
and agriculturally approved surfactants may be added. Do
not apply preemergence if a preplant application of this
product was made.
Application Rates: Do not apply on fine or medium
textured soils (silt & clay loams) with less than 1% organic
mailer 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 maller,
apply at a rate of 8 - 12 ounces per acre. On coarse"
textured soils with 2% or more organic matter, apply 8 -12
ounces per acre.
"Due to the lower rate, partial weed control may result on
coarse soils.
Postemergence:
Early Postemergence: To control small broadleafweeds,
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 broadleaf weeds are no more than 4 to 6 inches
tall and corn is between 8 and 16 inches tall. The timing
page 7 of 13
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.
General: Spike to 4-leaf or up to 8 inches tall apply by
ground or aerially as an early posternergence over-tha-top
broadcast spray at 5 - 10 oz 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 8 - 10
oz per acre. Lowest rates may not provide adequate weed
'ntrol unless used in a tank mix with another registered
~rbicide.
Note: Where an adjuvant is required because of tank
mixing with another herbicide, use the lowest
recommended concentration of a non ionic surfactant
(0.125% vol./vol. or less). Treated crop may be brittle and
subject to breaking by wind and/or cultivation, especially in
the 2 weeks following application.
Preharvest: After the hard dough (or denting) stage when
silks have turned brown, apply 2.0 - 4.5 pints per acre to
suppress perennial weeds such as hemp dogbane or field
bindweed, and many tall weeds such as cocklebur,
pigweed, and sunflower that interfere with harvest Weed
ed production will also be suppressed if application is
rior to the flowering stage of weeds. The high rate is
recommended under dry conditions. Do not forage or feed
com 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 1 - 2.5 pints per acre either
alone or in a combination with other registered herbicides.
See 'Planting in Treated Areas' section. If products to be
tank mixed have more restrictive limitations, these
limitations should be followed.
SORGHUM (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.
Application Rates: When crop is 6 to 8 inches tall use as
an over-the-top broadcast spray by ground or air at 5 -10
oz per acre. When sorghum reaches 8 to 15 inches tall,
use as a directed spray using drop nozzles with application
by ground only at 8 -10 oz 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.
SMALL GRAINS (Wheat. Oats. Barlev) NOT
UNDERSEEDED WITH A LEGUME
Apply as directed below.
Livestock Feeding Restrictions: Do not permit dairy
animals or meat animals being finished for slaughter to
forage or graze treated grain fields within 2 weeks aIIer
treatment Do not feed treated straw to livestock if an
emergency and/or preharvest treatment is applied.
Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizers: At full tiller, product may be
combined with liquid nitrogen fertilizers suitable for foliar
application to small grains. Refer to 'Mixing Instructions'
section of this label for further information. Fertilizers can
increase foliage contact burn of herbicides. Reducing the
fertilizer rate and concentration will reduce the hazard of
foliage burn.
Tank Mixtures: 2025™ may be tank mixed with other
herbicides for control of certain weeds in small grains. Use
tank mix directions appearing on the labels of the specific
herbicides when tank mixing with this product Observe all
precautions and limitations on labeling of product used in a
particular tank mix.
Spring Wheat and Barley
Onset of Til/ering 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. The onset of tillering stage is
defined as grain having 1 or more tillers as well as 3 or
more leaves.
Page 8 of 13
Apply 10-16 oz 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 tillering
stage is defined as grain that has 3 or more tillers and the
flag leaf should not be visible.
Apply 10 - 24 oz of product per acre when grain is in the
full tiller stage (usually 4 to 8 inches tall). Do not apply
after the jointing stage.
Winter Wheat and Barley
Onset of Tillering Stage: Grains are generally tolerant of
these treatments, but risk of crop injury is greater than at
. <. ·'1 tillering stage. Do not make application if the risk of
,<Jry is unacceptable.
Apply 10-24 OZ per acre in the spring when grain has 1 or
more tillers as well as 3 or more leaves. Do not apply after
the jointing stage.
Full Tillering Stage: For these applications, grain should
- have 3 or more tillers and the flag should not be visible.
Apply 10-24 oz pints per acre when grain is in the full tiller
stage (usually 4 to 8 inches tall). Do not apply after the
jointing stage.
Spring Seeded Oats
Full ·Tillering Stage: Grains should have 3 or more tillers
. d the flag leaf should not be visible. Oats are less
Jlerant to 2025™ 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 12 - 16 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. .
Postharvest (Wheat, Oats, Barley)
Following harvest a flush of new weed growth may occur.
For control of many annual broadleaf species, apply at up
to 2.5 pints 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 2.5 pints per acre either alone or in combination with
other registered herbicides. See 'Planting In Treated
Areas' section. Follow more restrictive limitations for tank
mix products used.
Rice
Apply 2025™ alone or as a tank mixture with other rice
herbicides to emerged and rapidly growing weeds. Apply
only in the late tillering stage of first joint development (first
to second green ring), usually 6-9 weeks after emergence.
Do not apply after internode elongation or panicle initiation.
Do not apply at early seedling, early panicle boot
flowering, or early heading growth stages. Before making
applications of 20251M to rice, consult local Extension or
University specialiSts for appropriate rates and timing of
sprays. Do apply this product when conditions and
application practices are favorable for drift.
Post emergent; Pre-ffood
Apply 2025™ at the rate of 2-4 pints per Acre. Applications
should be made by ground equipment using a minimum of
1 0 GPA. Aerial applications should apply a minimum of 3
GP A. For optimum results, weeds should be no more than
4 inches tall and rosettes less than 3 inches across.
Post emergent; Rooded
2025™ may be applied to rice and weeds following flood
when 800k of the weeds are exposed. Apply at 2-6 pints
per Acre in using a minimum of 10 GPA by ground or 3
GPA by air. Follow all local and state restrictions that apply
to 2,40 applications.
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 1- 2.5 pints per acre.
To aid in suppressing certain perennial or biennial
broadleaf weeds (including cotton regrowth), this product
may be applied at the rate of 1-2.5 pints per acre either
alone or in combination with other registered herbicides.
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. 2025™ 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.
Page 9 of 13
GRASS PASTURES
To control many emerged broadleat weeds, apply 1.0- 2.5
pints 2025™ per acre. 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 2-3 pints 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
'rm season or southern grasses, and alfalfa, clover or
• 1er 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
before slaughter. Do not cut treated grass for hay within 30
nays of application.
.iRASS SEED CROPS
To control many emerged broadleaf weeds, apply 1- 2.5
pints per acre. Use on established stands of cool season
grass seed crops, such as 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 3 pints per acre. Refer to 'Plant
Response' and 'Livestock Feeding Restrictions' under
GRASS PASTURES section above.
\3jtv
-----------------------------------RANGELAND PASTURES AND PERENNIAL
GRASSLANDS NOT IN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION
2025™ can be used to control or suppress a number of
susceptible broadleat weeds in rangeland or perennial
grasslands that are set aside from agricultural use such as
in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) or similar
government programs. Consult program rules to determine
whether grass and hay may be used. For best results,
apply when broadleat weeds are small. Adequate moisture
is needed for best grass tolerance and 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 1 - 2 pints
per acre when weeds are small and actively growing.
Established Stands: For optimum results, weeds must be
actively growing. Apply 2 • 2.5 pints per acre for annual
weeds and up to 3 pints 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 2 quarts per acre in
an oil spray (see 'Mixing Instructions'). Another option is
to add 1 gallon of oil per acre to a 2025™ 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. For government program grasslands, follow
program grazing restrictions if more restrictive than those
stated above.

ORNAMENTAL AND RECREATIONAL TURFGRASSES,
LAWNS, GOLF COURSES (Fairways, Aprons, Tees, and
Roughs), PARKS AND CEMETERIES
This product is intended for use only by professional
applicators and service technicians in established
ornamentailawns and turfgrass.
Apply only to established turf areas at times when weeds
are actively growing but not flowering and are 1-4' in
height Care must be taken to avoid spray drift on non­
targeted susceptible plants such as vegetables,
ornamentals, shrubs, trees, flowers, and other desirable
plants. Do not apply this product to bentgrass, Bermuda
(hybrid), carpet grass, centipede, dichondra, Saint
( 'gustine, or turf that contains desirable clovers. The
\ :lfety of this product for turf applications may vary
oetween grass species.
Under some conditions a temporary discoloration may
occur one to three days after application. Applications
made with spray adjuvants and and/or liquid fertilizer may
_ increase the potential for this discoloration.
Note: Do not apply this product with adjuvants based on
surfactants, wetting agents, or oils unless otherwise
directed.
Application Rate
. 40ply 1 - 2 pint! Acre or 1/3 -1 oz per 1000 square feet
I Jmperature and moisture extremes may affect the
,Jerformance of this product Warm moist conditions may
accelerate the performance of this product while cool
conditions may increase the time before herbicide
symptoms occur. Weeds hardened off by drought are less
susceptible to this product and may require higher rates for
control.
The maximum application of this product to turf grass is 2.5
pints per acre per application site. .
Application Guidelines
Thorough and uniform coverage are essential for weed
control. Do not use flood nozzles, Raindrop®, or nozzle
tips larger than 400 microns due to potential coverage
problems. Applications should be made with spray volumes
of 20-175 gallons per acre (1/2 to 4 gallons per 1000
square feet) Use the higher spray volume range when
weed populations are heavy and the grass canopy is
dense. Spray application pressure should be maintained at
20-40 psi. Do not apply this product in a manner or in
conditions that favor drift
FOREST MANAGEMENT (INCLUDING SITE PREP,
FOREST ROADSIDES, BRUSH CONTROL)
For the general control of annual, biennial and
perennial broadleaf weeds and brush: Apply to emerged
weeds and brush. For best results, treat when weeds and
brush are young and actively growing. For broadcast
applications apply no more than 4.0 Ibs, 2,4-D acid
equivalent per acre per 12 months.
For specific use-site applications and restrictions see
the appropriate site-specific instructions as follows:
Forest Site Preparation
Bud break Spray: For control of alder, susceptible
broadleaf weeds, and susceptible woody plants before
planting forest seedlings, apply up to 2.0 gallons per acre
in a minimum of 10 gallons spray mixture per acre. Apply
as an water spray, oil spray, or water spray with oil (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.
ANNUAL. BIENNIAL. PERENNIAL BROADLEAF WEEDS
AND GENERAL BRUSH CONTROL
Foliage Spray: To control seedlings and susceptible
woody plants before planting forest apply up to 2.0 gallons
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 Instructions'). For best
results, apply after alder foliage has reached full size.
TREE AND BRUSH CONTROL (i.e., alder, ash, aspen,
birch, black gum, cherry, elm, oak, sweet gum, tulip
poplar, willow, and others)
Basal Spray Treatment: Mix 1 - 2 gallons of 2025'" per
100 gallons of diluent (may contain oil). Apply directly to
base and root collar of all stems until the spray begins to
accumulate at the ground line. Also wetting stems with this
mixture may aid control.
Page 11 of 13
Cut Surface Stumps: Mix 1 - 2 gallons of 2025T11 per 100
gallons of diluent (may contain oil). Apply as soon as
possible after curing trees. Thoroughly soak the entire
stump with 2,4-0 mixture. Also treat exposed roots and
bark.
Frill: Mix 1 - 2 gallons of 2025T11 per 100 gallons of diluent
(may contain oil). Make frills with an axe or other tool that
can cut overlapping v-shaped notches through the bark in a
continuous ring il"ound the base of the tree. Treat freshly
cut frills with as much 2025™ mixture as they will hold.
Injection: Make injections as near to the root collar as
possible, using one injection per inch of trunk dbh (4 Yo
(~"lt) for resistant species such as hickory. Injections
( .auld overlap. For best results, injections should be
-.,lade during the growing season (May 15th through
October 15th in many Cl"eas). The injection bit must
penetrate the bark. Apply 2-4 ml of 2025T11 per injection
site.
Forest Roadsides: To control susceptible broadleaf
weeds and woody plants on forest roadsides, apply 0.5 -
1.5 gallons 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.
C ltablished Conifers (including Christmas trees):
( iirected Spray or Spot Spray: To control susceptible
broadleaf weeds, mix up to 1.0 gallon 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 2.0
gallons 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 2.0
gallons per acre. :

AREAS
For control of many broad leaf weeds and small woody
plants, apply Yo - 3 pints 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 0.5 pints per gallon of water and spray
weeds to runoff. Regardless of the method of application,
use adequate spray volume for full coverage of weeds.
Timing: Preferred application 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 Application: 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
Fall Treatment: For fall treatment of mature weeds or
perennial weed regrowth, use up to 1 - 3 pints 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
southern 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.
