GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide is a non-volatile, non-selective, water-soluble liquid herbicide designed for controlling annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds in a wide range of agricultural settings. It can be used for weed control on agricultural land before planting any edible or non-edible crops, except prior to transplanting tomatoes. Care should be taken to remove residues from plastic mulch before transplanting, and residues can be removed by 2cm of natural rainfall or by applying water via a sprinkler irrigation system. Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide is absorbed by plant foliage and green stems, inactivated on clay and organic matter in soil, providing no residual weed control. The herbicide moves throughout the plant from the point of contact to and into the root system. Initial visible effects on annual weeds take 3-7 days, but they may not be noticeable for 2-3 weeks under cool, cloudy conditions or on some perennial weeds.

CROP ESTABLISHMENT

Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide is recommended for controlling emerged weeds before crop establishment. Cultivation and planting operations that provide suitable conditions for crop emergence are required following herbicide application. Planting should be delayed in the presence of heavy weed growth or unsuitable soil conditions. Incorporation of green or decaying vegetation may retard crop emergence under cold, wet conditions. Grazing and cultivation to leave trash on the surface can assist in weed decay.

MIXING

Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide mixes readily with water. Reduced results may occur if water contains suspended clay or organic matter, or high levels of calcium, magnesium, or bicarbonate ions. It should not be mixed, stored, or applied in galvanized steel or unlined steel containers or spray tanks, as a highly flammable gas mixture may be formed. Stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, fiberglass, plastic, or plastic-lined containers or spray tanks are recommended. Equipment should be thoroughly cleaned with clean water after application, ensuring the spray tank is free of any residue of other spray solutions prior to mixing. Use spray solutions promptly as a gradual loss of activity may occur over a period of days following spray preparation.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Fill the spray tank 1/3 to 1/2 full with clean water and start agitation.
2. If adding Liase (ammonium sulfate), use a 2% v/v and mix thoroughly.
3. If tank mixing, add recommended herbicide/insecticide/additive to the spray tank and mix thoroughly.
4. Add Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide and the remaining water. Mix thoroughly.
5. Add Pulse Penetrant or a non-ionic surfactant 1000g/L, if required, near the end of the filling process.
6. Always maintain adequate agitation during the application and use the tank mix promptly. Clean all equipment after use by washing thoroughly with water.

TANK MIXTURES

Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide may be tank-mixed with various herbicides, insecticides, and adjuvants. Users should read and follow all label directions, restraints, plant back and withholding periods, and safety instructions for the tank mix products. In multiple product tank mixes, a minimum water volume of 50L/ha is recommended, and local advice should be sought. Correct mixing order is important, as is good in-tank agitation during application/spraying.

APPLICATION

• Boom Equipment: For boom application, a spray volume of 80L/ha or less is recommended for optimum performance. Nozzles and pressure settings should deliver a MEDIUM or MEDIUM–COARSE size droplet at the target. Avoid VERY FINE or FINE droplets, which are prone to loss or drift. In multiple product tank mixes, a minimum water volume of 50L/ha is recommended. Correct mixing order is important, and good in-tank agitation is crucial during application.

• Shielded Applications: For shielded applications, a spray volume of 80L/sprayed ha is recommended using nozzle types and pressure settings to deliver a COARSE size droplet at the target. Crop damage may result from spray drift, so correct nozzle and/or pressure selection, adequate shielding, wind strength, low evaporation rates, and appropriate ground speed are important considerations.

• Wiper Equipment: Wiper equipment may be used to apply Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide. Operate wiper equipment a minimum of 10cm above the crop or pasture, ensuring contact with weeds at least 15cm above the crop. Speed of travel should not exceed 8km/h for optimal results.

RATE FOR WIPER EQUIPMENT: Mix 700 mL Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide with 2.3 litres of clean water. Adjust the flow rate to suit equipment.

• Aerial Equipment: Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide may be applied by aircraft for control of weeds in forests, cropland, or pasture before the establishment of crops, new pastures, or new forest planting, and for pre-harvest applications. The maximum rate is 2.7L/ha where specified on the label. Do not apply treatments by aircraft in situations where drift onto sensitive crops and pastures is likely. Apply treatments using boom or Micronair equipment with a spray volume not less than 20L/ha and settings to produce a median droplet diameter of 250–350 microns. In multiple product tank mixes, a minimum water volume of 50L/ha is recommended. Correct mixing order is crucial.

APPLICATION ON HILLY TERRAIN

Increase water volume to 30-80L/ha and increase median droplet diameter of output to at least 300 microns to optimize deposition on weeds.

AIR TEMPERATURE AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY

Do not apply Imtrade Eradicator Ultimate 625 Herbicide by aircraft at temperatures above 30°C. Increase spray output to at least 30L/ha when temperatures rise above 25°C. Avoid application when relative humidity falls below 35%.

AVOID DRIFT

Do not apply treatments with spraying equipment or under weather conditions likely to cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible crops, pastures, or other sensitive plants. Do not apply treatments under light wind (less than 4km/h) or inversion conditions, or when wind speeds exceed 12km/h.

APPLICATION CHECKLIST

• Do not treat weeds under poor growing conditions.
• Do not add surfactants, adjuvants, or other pesticides except as specifically directed on this label.
• Rain within 1 hour of application causing runoff may require re-treatment.
• A withholding period for grazing is not required, but grazing should be delayed to ensure herbicide uptake.
• Apply treatments to weeds with at least one true leaf (broadleaf weeds) or two leaves (grasses) to provide an adequate surface area for herbicide uptake.
• If heavy grazing has occurred, allow regrowth to 6-8 cm before spraying and use the higher rates recommended.

PROTECTION OF CROP, NATIVE, AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS

Avoid contact with various parts of crops, desirable plants, and trees. Do not apply under conditions that may cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops or pastures.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS, AND ENVIRONMENT

Do not contaminate dams, rivers, or streams. Follow label directions to minimize spray entry into water.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL (5L, 10L, 20L & 200L only)

Store in closed, original containers in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from prolonged direct sunlight. Rinse containers before disposal and follow appropriate recycling or burial procedures. Do not burn empty containers.

SAFETY DIRECTIONS

The herbicide may damage eyes and irritate the skin. Protective clothing, including gloves, face shield or goggles, and overalls, should be worn during handling and preparation. In case of contact with eyes or skin, wash immediately with water. After use, wash hands, arms, and face thoroughly with soap and water. Clean equipment after each use.
