How it Works:<br />

Refer to Table 9 on page 48.<br />

Effects of Growing Conditions:<br />

Hot and dry or cold and wet weather prior to spraying may result in reduced weed control and increased crop injury.<br />

DO NOT apply within 2 weeks of a killing frost.<br />

Tank Mixes:<br />

Herbicides:<br />

• Spring wheat (including durum):<br />

º Horizon NG *(label rates - no adjuvant required)<br />

• Wheat and Barley:<br />

º Sencor or linuron for chickweed control.<br />

* Target only.<br />

Fertilizers: None registered.<br />

Insecticides: None registered.<br />

Fungicides: None registered.<br />

Note: The above mixes are those listed on the dicamba /mecoprop-p/MCPA labels only.<br />

Adding ingredients in the correct order is critical for optimum performance. Check labels of products to be mixed for<br />

directions. General guidelines can be found on page 8.<br />

Weed Control<br />

Restrictions:<br />

• Rainfall: Activity may be reduced if rainfall occurs within 3 hours of application. Contact manufacturer for more<br />

information.<br />

• Re-entry Interval: DO NOT enter treated fields for 12 hours.<br />

• Grazing Restrictions: DO NOT graze or harvest for livestock feed within 7 days of application.<br />

• Pre-harvest Interval: Leave at least 80 days from application to harvest.<br />

• Re-cropping Interval: No restrictions the year after application.<br />

• Aerial Application: All may be applied by air.<br />

• Storage: DO NOT freeze.<br />

• Buffer Zones:<br />

See page 35 for an explanation of the different habitats.<br />

* Buffer zones can be reduced by 70% when using shrouds and by 30% when using cones mounted less than<br />

12 inches from the crop canopy.<br />

Distance measured as metres from the downwind edge of the spray boom to sensitive habitat.<br />

º Buffers are not required for handheld and backpack applications.
