GROUP C F HERBICIDE

For control of certain broadleaf weeds in winter cereals and pasture as specified in DIRECTIONS FOR USE Table

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
- This product is a post-emergence contact herbicide, which may provide residual control of wild radish up to 4 weeks after application.
- Apply Jaguar Selective Herbicide immediately after mixing. Do not allow to stand in the spray tank overnight.
- Optimum results will be obtained if good soil moisture exists at and after application and weeds are not stressed.
- Some pre-emergence herbicides, such as atrazine, can cause stress to certain crops resulting in an increase in crop damage when using this product. Crops which are particularly sensitive are lucerne and subterranean clover.

Resistant Weeds Warning
Jaguar Selective Herbicide is a member of the nitrile and nicotinanilide groups of herbicides. Jaguar is an inhibitor of photosynthesis at photosystem II and carotenoid biosynthesis. For weed resistance management, Jaguar is a Group C, F herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Jaguar and other Group C, F 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 Jaguar or other Group C, F herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Bayer CropScience Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Jaguar to control resistant weeds.

Temperature warning
Do not apply Jaguar if frosts are imminent. Frost causes stress on crops and weeds and could result in increased crop effects and/or decreased weed control. To ensure good results Jaguar should only be applied once the weeds and crop are no longer under stress from the frost conditions.
Avoid application when maximum daily temperatures above 20°C occur, or are likely to occur for a few days after application, as increased crop damage may result.

CROP TOLERANCE
Cereals
After application some transient crop yellowing may occur. This usually appears as yellow or white banding on leaves. Provided the crop is not under stress from pre-emergent herbicide, root disease, insect damage, frost, dry or excessively moist conditions, the development of the crop and subsequent growth will be unaffected.
Lucerne
Warning
The tolerance of lucerne varieties to Jaguar can vary with rate of application, soil type, crop health, stage of growth and degree of moisture and temperature stress. Jaguar may result in transient crop yellowing and suppression of growth with a resultant initial reduction in dry matter. For this reason we recommend application prior to the 8 trifoliate leaf stage. However, under normal growing conditions subsequent growth and seed yield should not be affected. Crop damage may be increased if rates higher than 500 mL/ha are used and in areas where spray overlapping has occurred.
Under normal growing conditions, the following lucerne varieties have shown acceptable levels of foliage tolerance to Jaguar applied at 500 mL/ha: Hunter River, Nova and Dekalb 185. Varieties not listed should be tested before using Jaguar over large areas.

Subterranean clover
Warning
The tolerance of subterranean clover varieties to Jaguar can vary with rate of application, soil type, crop health, stage of growth and degree of moisture and temperature stress. Jaguar may result in transient crop yellowing and suppression of growth with an initial reduction in dry matter. For this reason we recommend application prior to the 8 trifoliate leaf stage. However, under normal growing conditions subsequent growth and seed yield should not be affected. Crop damage may be increased if rates higher than 500 mL/ha are used and in areas where spray overlapping has occurred.
Under normal growing conditions, the following varieties have shown acceptable levels of foliage tolerance to Jaguar applied at 500 mL/ha:
Daliak, Dalkeith, Denmark, Goulburn, Karridale, Leura, Mt. Barker, Nungarin, Rosedale, Seaton Park, Trikkala and Woogenellup.
The variety Junee has shown increased sensitivity to Jaguar so care should be taken if this variety is part of the pasture sward.
The effects of Jaguar on subterranean clover seed yield have been tested on the following varieties. Under normal growing conditions they show acceptable levels of tolerance to Jaguar applied at 500 mL/ha. However, higher rates may reduce seed yield under conditions of low weed pressure: Denmark, Goulburn, Larissa, Nungarin, Seaton Park, Trikkala and Woogenellup.
Varieties not listed should be tested before using Jaguar over large areas.

Other Clovers
Warning
The tolerance of clover varieties to Jaguar can vary with rate of application, soil type, crop health, stage of growth and degree of moisture and temperature stress. Jaguar may result in transient crop yellowing and suppression of growth with a resultant initial reduction in dry matter. For this reason we recommend application prior to the 8 trifoliate leaf stage. However, under normal growing conditions subsequent growth and seed yield should not be affected. Crop damage may be increased if rates higher than 500 mL/ha are used and in areas where spray overlapping has occurred. The effect on seed yield of other clovers has not been determined.
The following varieties of clover have shown increased sensitivity to Jaguar : Big Bee, Sacromonte (Berseem), Haifa (White), Zulu (Arrowleaf), Kyambro, Lupers and Maral (Persian).
Care should be exercised if these clovers are part of the pasture sward.
Varieties not listed should be tested before using Jaguar over large areas.

Subsequent Crops
To reduce effect on subsequent susceptible crops (e.g. canola), ensure thorough cultivation of soil prior to the sowing of these crops.

MIXING
To ensure even mixing, half fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required amount of product. Agitate thoroughly while carrying out spray operations. Reseal part-used container immediately after use.

APPLICATION
Boom Sprayer
A minimum of 50 L water/ha should be used, however, for optimum results water rates of 70-100 L/ha are recommended. Increase the water volume where weed infestation is heavy or the crop cover is dense. Complete coverage of weeds is essential. Higher water volumes (up to 100 L/ha) will ensure faster activity of the product on the weeds but may increase the symptoms of crop damage.

Controlled Droplet Application (CDA)
Insufficient information is available to recommend the application of this product by CDA.

Warning
The rubber components present in some spraying units may be affected by exposure to the solvents in Jaguar. To reduce this risk it is recommended that the spray unit be thoroughly washed with a boom cleaner and fresh water after use.

Aircraft
Insufficient information is available to recommend the application of this product by air.

Critical comments (WHEAT, BARLEY, TRITICALE, CEREAL RYE):
CROP STAGE:

Cereals
2 leaf to fully tillered (Zadok’s Z12-29)
Optimum results are achieved when sprayed at 4-8 weeks post-sowing.
Warning: Jaguar may cause transient crop yellowing of cereals. (Refer to "Crop Tolerance section of General Instructions).
Clover and lucerne
Application is recommended prior to the 8th trifoliate leaf stage. Application can be made from the 1st trifoliate leaf stage in Qld, NSW, ACT and Vic only. In other States applications prior to the 3 leaf stage may result in crop damage if seedlings are under stress and in sandy soils.
DO NOT apply to annual medics.
Warning: Jaguar may affect growth and seed set of some varieties of clover and lucerne
(Refer to "Crop Tolerance" section of General Instructions).
COVER CROPS IN VINEYARDS: When using in vineyard situations, apply during vine dormancy only. Contact with vines must be avoided. Particular care should be taken if applied in late autumn or early spring, when vines may not be fully dormant.
WEED STAGE:
Apply from early post-emergence.
APPLICATION:
Apply when weeds are actively growing. Ensure thorough coverage of weeds. Where crop or weed density is high, increase water volume.
In most situations the rate specified for each weed size will give satisfactory control. However, under certain conditions such as:
* high crop and weed
density,
* late season germinations,
* abnormal weed growth
(including early flowering); higher rates of product (up to the maximum rate of application specified for that weed) may be required.
Jaguar will not effectively control:
* regrowth of suppressed
weeds,
* transplanted weeds,
* regrowth from rhizomes or roots,
* weeds growing under stress from previous herbicide applications.
* Radish plants beyond
rosette stage
WILD RADISH:
Effective residual activity of this product may be reduced where: * rates lower than 1.0 L/ha
are used; * dry conditions prevail;
* poor coverage of the soil
surface is achieved; * crop is grown in non-
wetting sand;
* soils have a high content of clay or organic matter.
VOLUNTEER LUPINS:
In some situations, the higher rate of 1.0 L/ha may be required to effectively suppress volunteer lupins at the 4 leaf stage. # Jaguar will suppress seedling dock but will not suppress regrowth from transplanted roots.

Weeds contolled: Wild radish
Weed stage:
Up to the 4 leaf stage and not more than 120 mm in diameter
Rate / ha:
350 mL plus 200 mL MCPA LVE (500 g/L)
State:
WA only
Weed stage: Up to the 6 leaf stage and not more than 150 mm in diameter
Rate / ha:
500 mL plus 200 mL MCPA LVE (500 g/L)
State: 
All States
Weed stage: Up to the 8 leaf stage and not more than 180 mm in diameter.
Rate / ha:
500 mL plus 400 mL MCPA LVE (500 g/L)
State: 
All States
