GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

For best results, apply shortly before weed growth occurs to moist, well-prepared, trash and clod-free soil. Remove well-established weeds before applying BROMACIL 800 WG. Actively growing weeds up to about 10cm in height may be controlled, but a wetting agent must be used.

DO NOT cultivate the soil surface after application, as efficacy may be reduced and/or crop injury may result. For optimal results, sufficient moisture, either by rainfall or irrigation, is required within 3-4 days of treatment to carry BROMACIL 800 WG into the soil. With irrigation, thoroughly wet the entire area. Control of deep-rooted, hard-to-kill perennial weeds will not be satisfactory in areas with limited rainfall during the growth period.

EQUIPMENT AND APPLICATION

Fill the spray tank no more than 50% full with clean water. Before adding BROMACIL 800 WG, begin agitating vigorously and continue agitation during the entire mixing and spraying operation. Pour the required amount of BROMACIL 800 WG steadily into the spray tank. Allow vigorous bypass agitation to completely disperse the product.

DO NOT dump BROMACIL 800 WG into the spray tank all at once. After adding the required quantity of BROMACIL 800 WG and obtaining complete dispersion, continue to fill the tank to the desired level for spraying. Thorough agitation of the spray liquid should continue during the entire spraying operation. Spray solution should not be left standing in the tank overnight.

Large Areas

Use a fixed boom sprayer or handgun. To prevent nozzle blockage, strainer and nozzle screens should be 50 mesh or coarser. Always agitate in the spray tank to keep the material in suspension.

a) Fixed Boom Sprayer: Use 1000-2000L/ha water for industrial weed control. For selective weed control, use 250-450L/ha at 200-300 kPa pressure.

b) Handgun: Use 1000-2000L/ha and 600-800 kPa pressure.

Small Areas

Use a knapsack or pressurized hand sprayer or watering can. Shake or stir frequently.

SPRAYER CLEANUP

Thoroughly clean all traces of BROMACIL 800 WG from application equipment immediately after use. Flush tank, pump, hoses, and boom with several changes of water after removing spray nozzles and screen (clean these parts separately).

RESISTANT WEED WARNING

BROMACIL 800 WG is a member of the uracils group of herbicides and has the inhibitor of photosynthesis at photosystem II mode of action. For weed resistance management, BROMACIL 800 WG is a Group 5 Herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to BROMACIL 800 WG and other inhibitors of photosynthesis at photosystem II 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 BROMACIL 800 WG or other inhibitors of photosynthesis at photosystem II herbicides.

Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Imtrade CropScience accepts no liability for any loss that may result from the failure of BROMACIL 800 WG to control resistant weeds. Advice on strategies and alternative treatments should be obtained from your local supplier, consultant, local Department of Agriculture, Primary Industries Department, or an Imtrade CropScience representative.

RE-ENTRY PERIODS

After treating Asparagus or Pineapple, DO NOT allow entry into treated areas for 14 days unless wearing cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist over normal clothing and chemical-resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day's use.

After treating Citrus, DO NOT allow entry into treated areas for 3 days unless wearing cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist over normal clothing and chemical-resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day's use.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS

DO NOT apply, drain, or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants or where their roots may extend. Movement of soil from treated areas should be avoided because damage to off-target species may occur. DO NOT spray under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants or crops, cropping lands, or pastures.

Asparagus: DO NOT apply to newly seeded asparagus or to young plants during the first growing season after setting or to plants whose roots are exposed.

Citrus: Use with caution on light sandy soils as yellowing may occur.

Treated areas for Asparagus and Citrus - DO NOT replant any crop within three (3) years of the last application as injury may occur.

Pineapples: Only pineapples can be replanted into the same area within the 3-year plan.

GROUP C HERBICIDE

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS, AND THE ENVIRONMENT

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

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

Keep out of reach of Children. Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to the spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemical 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.

Bags

Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight. Single-rinse or shake remainder into the spray tank/water/dip/drench, etc. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on-site. Puncture and deliver empty packaging 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.
