GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS<br />
FARMOZ AMIGAN ® <strong>WG</strong> Herbicide provides knockdown and residual<br />
control of annual grass and broadleaf weeds. Best results will be<br />
achieved when weed seedlings are small and actively growing. Spray<br />
when soil moisture conditions are good at the early post-emergent<br />
stage of the sugar cane.<br />
DO NOT treat large weeds (greater than 30 cm in height) or under dry<br />
soil conditions as poor control will result.<br />
RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING<br />
FARMOZ AMIGAN ® <strong>WG</strong> Herbicide is a<br />
member of the triazine group of herbicides.<br />
AMIGAN <strong>WG</strong> has the inhibitor of photosynthesis at photosystem II<br />
mode of action. For weed resistance management AMIGAN <strong>WG</strong> is a<br />
Group C herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant<br />
to AMIGAN <strong>WG</strong> and other Group C Herbicides may exist through<br />
normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant<br />
individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these<br />
herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be<br />
controlled by AMIGAN <strong>WG</strong> or other Group C Herbicides.<br />
Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to<br />
use, FARMOZ Pty. Ltd. accepts no liability for any losses that may<br />
result from the failure of AMIGAN <strong>WG</strong> to control resistant weeds.<br />
MIXING<br />
Fill spray tank no more than 50% full with clean water. Before adding<br />
AMIGAN <strong>WG</strong> begin agitating vigorously and continue agitation during<br />
the entire mixing and spraying operation. Pour required amount of<br />
product steadily into the spray tank. Allow vigorous bypass agitation to<br />
completely disperse product.<br />
DO NOT dump product into spray tank all at once.<br />
After adding required quantity of product and obtaining complete<br />
dispersion, continue to fill tank to desired level for spraying. Thorough<br />
agitation of the spray liquid should continue during the entire spraying<br />
operation. Spray solution should not be left standing in the tank<br />
overnight.<br />
APPLICATION<br />
Apply by conventional sprayers with either mechanical or by-pass<br />
agitation. Flat fan nozzles should be used with spray equipment<br />
correctly calibrated to deliver a total spray volume of 200-400 L/ha.<br />
Nozzle screens should be 50 mesh. The equipment should direct the<br />
spray solution away from cane foliage to minimise contact with cane<br />
leaves and reduce shielding of weeds. Particular care should be taken<br />
with sensitive varieties such as Q119, Q122 and H56-752 or other new<br />
varieties.<br />
PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS<br />
DO NOT replant pineapples or sugar cane for 8 months after last<br />
application.<br />
DO NOT replant other crops for 12 months after last application.<br />
DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment,<br />
that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops,<br />
cropping lands or pastures.<br />
