GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AC Prankster 450 Herbicide is a water-soluble liquid with nonselective herbicidal activity against broadleaf weeds. It effectively controls emerged weeds by being absorbed through plant foliage, disrupting plant cell growth and nutrient balance, ultimately leading to the yellowing, wilting, and browning of plants. Visible effects may take 7-10 days to manifest, or even up to 21 days under certain environmental conditions.

CONDITIONS FOR APPLICATION
Ensure optimal growing conditions for effective weed control. Avoid treating weeds under poor growing or dormant conditions, such as during drought, waterlogging, disease, or insect damage. Reduced results may occur if weeds are under stress from previous herbicide applications. Rainfall within 6 hours of application may reduce effectiveness. Avoid spraying in strong winds.

CROP ESTABLISHMENT
AC Prankster 450 Herbicide is recommended as a herbicide additive to glyphosate for controlling emerged weeds before crop establishment. Follow specific plant back periods to ensure safe sowing of the intended crop. Factors affecting degradation include moisture, temperature, soil characteristics, and environmental conditions. Delay sowing if necessary to allow for suitable seedbed preparation.

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT
For ground boom application, use spray volumes of 25-100 L/ha. Aerial application should occur in a minimum spray volume of 15 L/ha. Adjust spray volumes based on environmental conditions. Maintain proper boom height for double overlap of nozzle patterns. Wash aircraft thoroughly after each day of spraying to remove herbicide residues.

EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE
Use stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, fiberglass, or plastic-lined containers for mixing, storing, and applying spray solutions. Avoid galvanized steel or unlined steel containers, as they may react with the herbicide. Thoroughly clean all equipment after use to prevent potential hazards.

COMPATIBILITY
AC Prankster 450 Herbicide is compatible with Glyphosate herbicides, Dicamba, Chlorsulfuron, Metsulfuron Methyl, Simazine, Atrazine, Paraquat, Diquat, Chlorpyrifos, and Dimethoate. Add surfactants only as directed, avoiding mixing with spraying oils or other agricultural chemicals unless specified.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Mix AC Prankster 450 Herbicide with water in a clean spray tank, ensuring thorough agitation. Add recommended additives, herbicides, and Glyphosate in the specified order. Maintain adequate agitation during application and use the tank mix promptly.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING
AC Prankster 450 Herbicide belongs to Group 4 herbicides and has the disruptors of plant cell growth mode of action. To manage weed resistance, avoid repeated use of this herbicide and implement integrated weed management strategies.

PRECAUTIONS
Follow safety precautions for sugarcane harvesting and re-entry periods. Protect nearby susceptible crops, native plants, and non-target organisms from spray drift. Avoid contaminating water bodies with the product or used containers, as it is very toxic to aquatic life.
