GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Before opening, carefully read Safety Directions, First Aid Instructions, Directions for Use, Storage and Disposal, and Protection Statements.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING

GROUP Q HERBICIDE

AC Amon Herbicide is a member of the triazole group of herbicides. AC Amon Herbicide has the inhibitors of carotenoid biosynthesis mode of action. For weed resistance management, AC Amon Herbicide is a Group Q herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to AC Amon Herbicide and other Group Q 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 AC Amon Herbicide or other Group Q herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Axichem Pty Limited accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of AC Amon Herbicide to control resistant weeds. AC Amon Herbicide may be subject to specific resistance strategies. For further information, contact your farm chemical supplier, consultant, local Department of Agriculture, or local Axichem Pty Ltd representative.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Thoroughly wet all surfaces by aiming to apply 1700-2200 Litres per hectare with power spraying equipment, 900-1100 Litres per hectare (1 Litre per 10m²) using a knapsack, and 170 Litres per hectare when using a misting machine. Note: Misting machines are not recommended for use in Tasmania.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

To improve the efficiency of this product, it is recommended that a 700g/L active surfactant be added to the spray mixture at the following rates:

  • Power Spraying – 250mL/100L spray mixture
  • Knapsack Spraying – 55mL/15L knapsack
  • Misting Machine – 60mL/15L spray mixture (Not recommended in Tasmania)

Note: The rates indicated in the Directions for Use table are per 100L of water for power spraying. Refer to the chart below for the required amounts to suit other equipment.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEA AND ENVIRONMENT

DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers, or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS

Drift Warning: This product is a non-selective herbicide and may damage crops, pastures, and some ornamentals. However, it is safer to use near plants susceptible to phenoxy type herbicides. DO NOT apply under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands, or pastures.

Equipment Maintenance and Usage:

Do not use the spray machine for any other purpose unless thoroughly cleaned by several rinsings of all parts with clean water.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to the tank. Do not dispose of chemicals on-site. If recycling, replace the cap and return clean containers to the recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging for appropriate disposal to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose clear of waterways, desirable vegetation, and tree roots, in compliance with relevant Local, State, or territory government regulations. DO NOT burn empty containers or product.

Refillable Containers:

Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to the point of supply for refill or storage.
