Introduction

Effects of Growing Conditions:
Moderate rainfall (10 to 20 mm), or equivalent irrigation, is required within 7 to 10 days for activation. Dry conditions that
persist after application may reduce weed control. Heavy rainfall after application may dilute the active layer and result in
reduced weed control.
DO NOT apply when temperature exceed 25 o C due to increased risk of vapour drift. Temporary whitening/yellowing of the crop
may occur when emerging from treated soil.
Tank Mixes:
None registered.
FMC Corporation supports the following tank mixes that are not on the Command label. Apply mixes according to the
most restrictive use limitations for either product:
• Herbicides: Glyphosate (180 to 360 g ae per acre)
Adding ingredients in the correct order is critical for optimum performance. Check labels of products to be mixed for
directions. General guidelines can be found on page 8.
Restrictions:
• Rainfall: Moderate rainfall after application is required for activation. Heavy rainfall shortly after application may
reduce activity.
• Re-entry Interval: DO NOT enter treated fields for at least 12 hours.
• Grazing Restrictions: DO NOT graze the treated crop or cut for hay.
• Re-cropping Interval: Canola, corn (field, sweet), dry bean (kidney, navy), field pea, potatoes, soybean and spring
wheat may be planted the year after application. All other crops may be planted 16 months after application.
• Aerial Application: DO NOT apply by air.
• Storage: Store above 5 o C to keep from freezing. If frozen, thaw before use. If solid crystals are observed, warm to
above 15 o C and shake or roll container periodically to dissolve solids. DO NOT store near heat or open flame.
• Buffer Zones: DO NOT apply Command 360 ME within 90 metres of sensitive plants and sensitive terrestrial habitats or
within 370 metres of fruit, nursery and greenhouse production. A buffer zone of 370 metres should also be observed
for applications adjacent to residential areas and established vegetation. DO NOT apply Command 360 ME directly to
surface water or to areas where runoff is likely to occur.
See page 35 for an explanation of the different habitats.
* Buffer zones can be reduced by 70% when using shrouds and by 30% when using cones mounted less than
12 inches from the crop canopy.
