Add a non-ionic surfactant (such as Agral 90 or Ag-Surf) at 0.25 L per 100 L of spray solution. Surfactant not included.<br />

DO NOT apply Altitude FX or other products containing imazamox, fluroxypyr or MCPA more than once per season.<br />

Refer to the product label for complete mixing instructions for this product and its mixes. A general guide to mixing can be<br />

found on page 8.<br />

Application Information:<br />

• Water Volume: 20 to 40 L per acre.<br />

• Nozzles and Pressure: Maximum 40 psi (275 kPa) when using conventional flat fan nozzles. Low drift nozzles may<br />

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

thorough, even coverage of ASABE coarse droplets.<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 />

Initial crop injury may be observed after application but this is outgrown and should not affect yield. Severe crop injury will<br />

occur as a result of spray overlap. AVOID SPRAYER OVERLAP.<br />

DO NOT spray if temperatures of +5 o C are forecast within 3 days of application. Treat crops during warm weather when<br />

weeds are actively growing and soil moisture is adequate for rapid growth. Under cool or dry conditions, control of some<br />

weeds may be severely reduced.<br />

Tank Mixes:<br />

None Registered.<br />

Restrictions:<br />

• Rainfall: No rainfast period is specified on the label; required interval may be up to 8 hours. Contact manufacturer for<br />

more information.<br />

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

• Grazing Restrictions: DO NOT graze the treated crop within 14 days of application or cut for hay within 42 days of<br />

application.<br />

• Pre-harvest Interval: DO NOT apply within 79 days of harvest.<br />

• Re-cropping Interval: Winter wheat may be seeded 3 months after application. Barley, canola (all varieties), field peas,<br />

flax, lentils, oats, sunflower, and spring wheat may be grown safely the year following application. Condiment mustard<br />

may be grown the second season following Altitude FX application. Conduct a field bioassay the year before growing<br />

any other crop than those listed above.<br />

• Aerial Application: DO NOT apply by air.<br />

• Storage: DO NOT freeze. Store in a cool, dry place above 5 o C. Combustible – DO NOT store near heat or open flame.<br />

• Buffer Zones:<br />

Application method<br />

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

Aquatic Habitats of Depths<br />

Greater than 1 m<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 />
