GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

This product can be used for either pre- or post-emergence weed control depending on the crop and weeds to be controlled. When the product is applied pre-emergence, susceptible weeds may emerge but growth will be retarded and weeds will either die or remain stunted and will not compete with the crop. Adequate soil moisture is important for optimum activity. When applied post-emergence, weeds will either die or remain stunted and will not compete with the crop. A non-ionic surfactant, or an adjuvant as specified in the DIRECTIONS FOR USE, must be added to Skipper 700 WG for post-emergence weed control. The addition of ammonium sulphate (417g/L) at a rate of 2 L/100 L water may assist in post-emergence control of summer growing weeds.

MIXING

This product mixes readily with both hard and soft water. Fill the spray tank one half to three quarters full with clean water and then, with the agitator running, add the required amount of this product and then fill the tank with water. When tank mixing this product with other recommended compatible products, first add the other product to the tank and mix thoroughly before adding this product.

APPLICATION
Skipper 700 WG should not be applied for a minimum of two hours before rainfall or irrigation. Ground Application: Avoid overlaps when spraying. Apply in 50 to 100 L/ha water using flat fan nozzles. The product may be applied in a band over the row in row crops. This will assist in minimising soil residue carryover. Aerial Application (Pre-emergence only): Avoid overlaps when spraying. Apply in a minimum 20 L/ha water in a maximum swath width of 18 m using a droplet VMD of 230-280 microns. Do NOT apply Skipper 700 WG under conditions (e.g., dead calm, excessive wind and/or small droplets) likely to cause spray drift onto wetlands or waterways, natural vegetation, crops other than specified on label or land to be planted with susceptible crops.

COMPATIBILITY

This product is compatible with Pendimethalin, Oryzalin, Alpha-cypermethrin, trifluralin, metribuzin, cyanazine, diuron, glyphosate, paraquat plus diquat, diquat, simazine, diflufenican, dimethoate, omethoate and endosulfan. DO NOT tank mix with selective post-emergence grass herbicides. Do NOT apply these herbicides following use of Skipper 700 WG until grasses have resumed active growth.
