GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

OzCrop Blowout Herbicide

Product Overview:

• OzCrop Blowout Herbicide quickly kills a wide range of annual grasses, broadleaf weeds, and some perennial grasses when sprayed directly onto the leaves.
• Active ingredients are rapidly and tightly absorbed by clay and silt particles in the soil and do not leave effective soil residues.
• Crops sown almost immediately after spraying are not affected, and neither are weeds germinating after spraying.
• Where insect pests are anticipated, use recommended insecticide treatment. Regular checks should be made before and after sowing.
• Suitable residual herbicides can be tank-mixed with Blowout for extended in-crop weed control in fallows and subsequent crops.

Tank Mixtures:

• Read and follow all label directions for tank mix products, including restraints, spray drift restraints, mandatory no-spray zones, critical comments, withholding periods, regional use restrictions, and safety directions.

Mixing:

• Add the recommended rate of Blowout to water in the spray tank and agitate for even mixing.
• Agitate again if left standing.

Application (Boomspray):

• Use only through a properly calibrated boomspray fitted with flat fan jets and adjusted to a height to give at least double overlap of the spray at the top of the weeds.
• Spraying pressures should be in the range of 240 to 280 kPa.
• Speed of travel should be in the range of 6 to 10 km/hr.
• Use a good marking system, and if a disc marker is used, ensure it turns the soil back onto the sprayed area.

Resistance Weeds Warning:

• OzCrop Blowout Herbicide is a member of the bipyridyl group of herbicides with the "photosynthesis at photosystem I inhibitor" mode of action.
• It is a Group L herbicide for weed resistance management.
• Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to Blowout and other Group L herbicides may exist. Resistant weeds will not be controlled by Blowout.

Storage and Disposal:

• Store in the closed, original container in a dry, well-ventilated, locked room or place away from children, animals, food, feedstuffs, seed, and fertilizers.
• Do not store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight.
• Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal, and add rinsings to the spray tank.
• Do not dispose of undiluted chemicals on-site. If recycling, replace the cap and return clean containers to the recycler or designated collection point.
• For refillable containers, empty contents fully into application equipment, close all valves, and return to the point of supply for refill or storage.

Safety Directions:

• Very dangerous, particularly the concentrate. Product is poisonous if absorbed by skin contact, inhaled, or swallowed.
