Buffer Zones (metres † ) Required for the Protection of:<br />

Aquatic Habitats of Depths<br />

Terrestrial habitat<br />

Less than 1 m Greater than 1 m<br />

Canola, Sunflower, Brassica carinata 4 2 55<br />

Mustard (Condiment and Oilseed types) 3 2 40<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 />

†<br />

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

Sprayer Cleaning:<br />

Sprayers used to apply Muster should be flushed out immediately after Muster is used. Refer to ‘Method A’ in the general<br />

section on sprayer cleaning on page 9 and 10.<br />

Herbicide Group<br />

2 – metsulfuron<br />

4 - aminocyclopyrachlor<br />

(Refer to page 44)<br />

Formulation:<br />

39.5% aminocyclopyrachlor and 12.6% metsulfuron formulated as a water dispersible granule.<br />

• Container size – 8 x 1.361Kg.<br />

Crops and Staging:<br />

Rangeland or Non-crop areas (i.e. Rights of Way, roadsides, industrial sites, fence lines and other non-crop areas)<br />

DO NOT use in residential or recreational areas, where bystanders could be exposed during or after application.<br />

DO NOT apply to cropland.<br />

Note: The use of this chemical may result in contamination of groundwater particularly in areas where soils are permeable<br />

(e.g. sandy soil) and/or the depth to the water table is shallow (typically less than 2 metres).<br />

Avoid application of this product in areas where the roots of desirable trees and/or shrubs may extend unless injury or loss can be<br />

tolerated. Root zone areas of desirable trees or vegetation are affected by local conditions and can extend well beyond the tree<br />

canopy.<br />

Weeds, and Staging:<br />

For best results, apply to young, actively growing weeds. For woody species, apply between mid-June and mid-August after<br />

the brush has leafed out, but before the leaves begin to turn their fall colours.<br />

After the granules have fully dispersed, add surfactant. Either one of the following:<br />

• non-ionic surfactants (i.e. Agral 90, Agsurf II, or Citowett) at 0.25 L per 100 L (25 mL per 10 L) of spray solution.<br />

• Merge or a crop oil concentrate (oil-surfactant blends such as Assist, Score, etc.) at 1 L per 100 L (100 mL per 10 L).
