GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:

Smart Target 200 Herbicide is an emulsifiable concentrate herbicide for post-emergence control of certain grass weeds in specified broadleaf crops.

Time of Application:

• Apply when weeds are young and actively growing.
• Can be applied at any stage of crop growth (except curcurbit crops).
• Allow sufficient time for the withholding period before harvest, grazing, or cutting for stockfeed.
• Important: Do not apply to curcurbit crops before the five true leaf stage.

Spray Preparation:

• If spray equipment was previously used for sulfonylurea herbicides, ensure proper cleaning procedures are followed.
• Smart Target 200 is mixed with water and applied as a spray.
• Add the required amount of Smart Target 200 Herbicide directly to the spray tank and mix well.
• If mixing with mancozeb or carbendazim, add these to the spray tank and mix thoroughly BEFORE adding Smart Target 200.
• If the spray solution has been left standing for more than 3 hours, thorough re-agitation is necessary before spraying.
• Do not let the spray mixture stand overnight, as re-suspension may be difficult.

Use of a Surfactant/Wetting Agent:

• Smart Target 200 Herbicide may be used with either a methylated and/or ethylated seed crop oil (e.g., Hasten) or Smart Wet 1000 (non-ionic surfactant, 1000g/L).
• Follow the recommended rates for the chosen adjuvant system.

Incompatibilities:

• Do not use Smart Target 200 Herbicide with mineral-based crop oils or non-methylated spray oils of crop origin.

Compatibilities:

• Compatible with the herbicides sethoxydim and clethodim.
• Compatible with insecticides (deltamethrin, omethoate, dimethoate, methomyl, endosulfan), fungicides (carbendazim and mancozeb), and the herbicide clopyralid.
• If using the non-ionic surfactant system, Smart Target 200 is compatible with the herbicide diflufenican.
• Do not add crop oil to tank mixtures of Smart Target 200 Herbicide/diflufenican.

Ground Spraying:

• Use 50 to 100 liters of prepared spray per hectare, increasing to 150 liters in dense or large weed and crop canopies.
• Use flat fan or hollow cone nozzles at 210-350 kPa.
• Ensure even distribution of droplets with no less than 50% of the spray volume in the 150-300 micron range.
• Adjust boom and nozzle height for proper spray coverage.

Sprayer Cleanup:

• Thoroughly clean all traces of Smart Target 200 Herbicide from equipment immediately after use.
• Follow recommended sprayer cleanup procedures if equipment was previously used for sulfonylurea herbicides.

Resistant Weeds Warning:

• Smart Target 200 Herbicide belongs to the "Fop" (aryloxyphenoxy propionate) group. Manage resistance by using herbicides with different modes of action.
• Some weed biotypes resistant to Smart Target 200 Herbicide may exist. Consult local authorities or agricultural experts for strategies to minimize resistance.

Precaution: Re-entry:

• Do not enter treated areas until the spray has dried.
• Wear chemical-resistant gloves if prior entry is necessary. Launder clothing after each day's use.

Protection of Crops, Native and Other Non-Target Plants:

• Do not plant cereal crops into treated areas for 18 weeks after application.
• Avoid spraying in weather conditions or with equipment that may cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible plants, crops, or pastures.

Protection of Wildlife, Fish, Crustaceans, and Environment:

• Do not contaminate streams, rivers, or watercourses with the chemical or used containers.

Storage and Disposal:

• Do not store tank mixes of Smart Target 200 Herbicide with other materials.
• Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
• Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Do not dispose of undiluted chemicals on-site.
• Follow local regulations for recycling or disposal. Do not burn empty containers or product.
• For refillable containers, return them to the point of supply for refill or storage.
• Envirodrum 110L Mini Bulk Returnable Container: Store in a cool, well-ventilated area. Return empty Envirodrums to the point of purchase.
