GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING

FARMALINX Dicam 500 Herbicide is a member of the Benzoic acid group of herbicides. It operates through the Disruptor of plant cell growth mode of action. For weed resistance management, FARMALINX Dicam 500 Herbicide is categorized as a Group I Herbicide. Naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to FARMALINX Dicam 500 Herbicide and other Disruptors of plant cell growth herbicides may exist due to normal genetic variability in weed populations. These resistant weeds can become dominant if these herbicides are repeatedly used. Since detecting resistant weeds before use is challenging, FARMALINX Pty Ltd assumes no liability for losses resulting from the failure of FARMALINX Dicam 500 Herbicide to control resistant weeds. Spray when weeds are young, actively growing, and, unless stated otherwise, before the 3-5 true leaf stage.

MIXING

Add the required amount of the product directly to the tank and mix well.

APPLICATION

For Boom Application: Apply using a properly calibrated boom sprayer with not less than 50 liters of water per hectare unless indicated otherwise in the Critical Comments column.

For Aerial Application: Apply at least 25 liters total spray volume per hectare. The aircraft should fly as low as practical under prevailing conditions to minimize drift.

For High Volume Application: Apply a minimum of 1500 liters per hectare.

For Knapsack Application: A 15-liter knapsack treats 150 square meters.

MIMOSA CONTROL

Broadacre Application: Apply 2-2.4 L/ha in 60 liters of water per hectare. Helicopter application is preferred.

High Volume Application: Apply 400 mL in 110 L water using ground equipment. Thoroughly wet all leaves and stems of the plant.

Basal Bark Application: Apply 60 mL in 15 L water to plants of less than 5 cm basal diameter. Spray liberally all around the base and 25-40 cm up the stem.

Cut Stump application: Apply 60 mL in 15 L water on plants up to 10 cm basal diameter. Cut trees as close to ground level as possible and spray the freshly cut surface before the sap dries.

Note: Temporary wilting may be evident in crops after application. If seasonal conditions are late or dry, seek further advice before spraying, as damage may result from spraying crops under these conditions. Growers should seek advice before spraying recently released cereal varieties. Certain maize varieties may develop clubfoot of the prop roots.

PLANT BACK PERIODS for Conservation Tillage

Wait for the specified periods before planting the following crops into soils sprayed with the product. If applied to dry soil, at least 15 mm of rainfall is required before the Plant Back Period begins.

COMPATIBILITY

FARMALINX Dicam 500 Herbicide is compatible with Terbutryn, Glyphosate, Chlorsulfuron, Metsulfuron, 2,4 D Amine, 2,4 D Ester, Diuron, and Molinate. It is also compatible with Atrazines, but when used in combination with these products, some temporary visible effects on crop growth may be observed.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS

• Do not apply under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that may cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands, or pastures.

• Spray equipment must be accurately calibrated prior to working on crops.

• Keep the container sealed (airtight) when not in use to prevent damage.

• Minimize spray drift by using low pressure and nozzles that do not produce a fine droplet size.

• Do not apply near desirable trees or plants or in locations where the chemical may contact their roots.

• Do not use in high winds.

• Thoroughly wash all spray equipment after use and do not use it for spraying horticultural crops.

• Do not use at a higher rate than recommended.

PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK, WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEA, AND ENVIRONMENT

• Do not use the container for any other purpose.

• Do not contaminate streams, rivers, or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

• Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area away from children, animals, food, feedstuffs, insecticides, seed, and fertilizers.

• Do not store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight.

• Follow the storage and disposal instructions on the label attached to the container.
