GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Alarm Herbicide quickly kills a wide range of annual grasses, broadleaf weeds, and some perennial grasses when sprayed directly onto the leaves. The active ingredients are rapidly and tightly absorbed by clay and silt particles in the soil and do not leave any effective soil residues. Thus, crops sown almost immediately after spraying are not affected by the chemicals, nor are weed seeds, which germinate after spraying. Where insect pests are anticipated, use recommended insecticides treatment. Regular checks should be made before and after sowing. Suitable residual herbicides can be tank-mixed with Alarm Herbicide to provide extended in-crop weed control in fallows and subsequent crops. Read label recommendations of the respective residual herbicides prior to their use, and observe precautions against the use of residual herbicides before planting susceptible crops. See compatibility statement on this label for compatibility of Alarm Herbicide with other herbicides.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING

GROUP L HERBICIDE

Alarm Herbicide is a member of the bipyridyls group of herbicides. Alarm Herbicide has the inhibitors of photosynthesis at photosystem 1 mode of action. For weed resistance management, Alarm is a Group L herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Alarm and other Group L herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by Alarm or other Group L herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Sipcam Pacific Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Alarm Herbicide to control resistant weeds.

MIXING

The recommended rate of Alarm Herbicide should be added to water in the spray tank and agitated to give even mixing. Agitate again if left standing.
