Introduction

175
Application Information:
• Water Volume: 20 to 80 L per acre. High water volumes are required for adequate coverage, particularly when weed
densities are high or weed staging is large.
• Nozzles and Pressure: Use 40 psi (275 kPa) when using conventional flat fan nozzles. Low drift nozzles may require
higher pressures for proper performance. Use a combination of nozzles and pressure designed to deliver thorough,
even coverage a of ASABE coarse droplets.
• Screens: Use 50 mesh or coarser on both nozzle and primary plumbing screens.
Effects of Growing Conditions:
DO NOT spray if temperatures of +5 o C or less are forecast within 3 days of application or when temperatures are expected
to exceed +27 o C on the day of application. Under cool or dry conditions, control of some weeds may be severely reduced.
Tank Mixes:
Herbicides:
• Fallow and Post-harvest:
º Glyphosate (180 to 360 g ae per acre) - recommended
• Corn:
º None registered in western Canada.
Insecticides: None registered.
Fungicides: None registered.
Fertilizers: None registered.
Weed Control
Restrictions:
• Rainfall: Rain within 4 hours may reduce control.
• Re-entry Interval: Leave 12 hours before entering treated fields.
• Grazing Restrictions: DO NOT graze or cut as feed for 75 days.
• Pre-harvest Interval: DO NOT apply within 120 days of harvesting corn.
• Re-cropping Interval: A plant back interval of 30 days is required for the planting of rotational crops. Consult BASF for
further information on rotational cropping.
• Aerial Application: DO NOT apply by air.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place above 5 o C.
• Buffer Zones:
Application method
Buffer Zones (metres † ) Required for the Protection of:
Aquatic Habitats of Depths
Terrestrial habitat
Less than 1 m
Greater than 1 m
Ground only 15 15 10
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.
†
Distance measured as metres from the downwind edge of the spray boom to sensitive habitat.
Sprayer Cleaning:
Distinct can cause injury to sensitive crops at very low concentrations. Sprayers used to spray this product should be flushed
out immediately after use.
Use ‘Method B’ on page 9 and 10 to clean sprayers after using Distinct.
Hazard Rating:
