GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FMC Sulfosulfuron 750WG Herbicide is a selective herbicide absorbed by foliage and roots. It is rapidly translocated and acts by inhibiting acetolactate synthase (ALS), an enzyme necessary for root and shoot growth in sensitive plants. FMC Sulfosulfuron 750WG Herbicide is a water dispersible granular herbicide for use in wheat and triticale. It can be used as a pre-plant, incorporated by sowing, for the control of wild turnip and suppression of barley grass and brome grass, or as a post-emergent for the control of silvergrass wild radish and wild turnip and suppression of barley grass, brome grass, wild mustard (Sinapsis arvensis) and wild oats.

PRE-EMERGENT
Apply to bare soil prior to sowing or at sowing and incorporate by the sowing operation to give thorough mixing. If applied to dry soil and sowing is to be delayed, incorporate immediately after spraying to prevent loss by wind erosion. For best results apply to bare soil when follow-up rain is likely to occur within 7-10 days. Weeds may emerge and will become stunted and uncompetitive soon after application although final results may not show for some weeks.

POST EMERGENT
Weeds should be young and actively growing. Use the higher rate under heavy weeds pressure and for larger weeds. A follow up spray with a suitable herbicide may be necessary to control subsequent germinations. Best weed control is obtained when rainfall wets the soil to a depth of 5 to 7.5cm within 7-10 days of application. Weeds will become stunted and uncompetitive soon after application although final results may not show for some weeks. When treatment is delayed or where weeds are not actively growing due to adverse conditions, for example, dry, waterlogged, frosty or diseased conditions, nutrient deficiency, high insect pressure or previous herbicide treatment, reduced levels of control may result. FMC Sulfosulfuron 750WG Herbicide will remain in the soil for a period of time. The persistence of FMC Sulfosulfuron 750WG Herbicide in the soil is dependent on various environmental conditions e.g. soil pH, soil moisture, soil temperature and organic matter. Crops other than wheat and triticale may be very sensitive to low soil concentrations of FMC Sulfosulfuron 750WG Herbicide, thus prior to using the product, careful consideration should be given to crop rotation plans (see Crop Safety and Crop Rotation Guidelines).
