GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Best results are obtained when application is made to a cool wet soil.

MIXING
Prior to pouring, shake container vigorously, then add the required quantity of Kerb 500 SC to water in the spray vat while stirring or with agitators in motion. DO NOT mix with other pesticides.

EQUIPMENT
The product should be applied with properly calibrated spray equipment. Select nozzles to give uniform ground cover. Equipment which has previously been used for the application of other weed killers must be thoroughly decontaminated before use. A suggested method is: Drain the tank, hoses and boom completely of any remaining residues. Flush with water and drain completely. Refill with a solution containing 300 mL household ammonia per 120 litres of water with detergent. Leave to stand overnight, drain and finally flush again thoroughly with clean water. Wash spray equipment thoroughly after use.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING
Kerb is a member of the amide group of herbicides. Kerb belongs to the herbicide group with diverse sites of action. For weed resistance management, Kerb is a Group D herbicide. Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to Kerb and other Group D 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 Kerb or other Group D herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Dow AgroSciences Australia Limited accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Kerb to control resistant weeds.
Strategies to minimise the risk of herbicide resistance are available. Contact your farm chemical supplier, consultant, local Department of Agriculture, or local Dow AgroSciences representative.
