Weeds, Rates and Staging:<br />

Apply Quinclorac at 55 to 67* g per acre (18 to 15 acres per case) plus Merge adjuvant (purchased separately)<br />

at 1 L per 100 L of spray solution to control:<br />

Grasses:<br />

º Barnyard grass (1 to 5 leaves)<br />

º Green foxtail* (1 to 5 leaves, up to 2 tillers)<br />

Broadleaves:<br />

º Cleavers (1 to 3 whorls)<br />

º Volunteer flax (1 to 8 cm)<br />

º Sow-thistle (annual and perennial)**<br />

* Use the high rate for heavy infestations of green foxtail only. For clarification of what constitutes a heavy<br />

infestation contact the manufacturer.<br />

** Suppression only.<br />

DO NOT apply products that contain quinclorac more than once every two years.<br />

Early treatment of weeds is important to maximize crop yield potential by eliminating early weed competition. Refer to<br />

broadleaf tank mix partner for additional timing restrictions.<br />

Application Information:<br />

• Water Volume: Minimum 45 L per acre.<br />

• Nozzles & Pressure: 40 to 60 psi (275 to 425 kPa) when using standard flat fan nozzles. Low drift nozzles may require<br />

higher pressures for proper performance. Use a combination of nozzles and pressure designed to deliver thorough,<br />

even coverage with a minimum of drift. Flat fan nozzles may be tilted forward 45 degrees to improve coverage on<br />

vertical surfaces (i.e. grasses).<br />

• Screens: Use 50 mesh or coarser on both nozzle and primary plumbing screens<br />

How it Works:<br />

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

Effects of Growing Conditions:<br />

DO NOT apply to crop that is under stress from conditions such as frost, hail, flooding, drought or extremes in temperature.<br />

Cool weather may delay weed control and if prolonged may result in poor weed control.<br />

Tank Mixes:<br />

Herbicides: When mixing with broadleaf partners a slight reduction in green foxtail control may result. If spraying for green<br />

foxtail, use the high rate of Quinclorac. Add Merge adjuvant at 1 L per 100 L spray solution for all tank mixes.<br />

Tank mix partners applied at all label rates and include recommended adjuvants unless otherwise noted.<br />

In spring wheat (including durum) only:<br />

• 2,4-D amine or ester (160 to 212 g ae per acre)<br />

• Buctril M<br />

• MCPA amine or ester (0.34 to 0.45 L per acre - 500 g/L formulations)<br />

º Refer to individual product labels for application details such as staging and varietal restrictions.<br />

Insecticides: None registered.<br />

Fungicides: None registered.<br />

Fertilizers: None registered.<br />

Note: Allow 4 days between the application of Quinclorac and any other chemical not listed as a tank mix.<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.
