GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide quickly kills a wide range of annual grasses, broadleaf weeds, and some perennial grasses when sprayed directly onto the leaves. The active ingredients are rapidly and tightly absorbed by clay and silt particles in the soil and do not leave any effective soil residues. Thus, crops sown almost immediately after spraying are not affected by the chemicals, nor are weed seeds which germinate after spraying.

Where insect pests are anticipated, use recommended insecticide treatment. Regular checks should be made before and after sowing. Suitable residual herbicides can be tank-mixed with Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide to provide extended in-crop weed control in fallows and subsequent crops. Read label recommendations of the respective residual herbicides prior to their use and observe precautions against the use of residual herbicides before planting susceptible crops. See the compatibility statement on this label for compatibility of Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide with other herbicides.

Resistant Weeds Warning
Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide is a member of the bipyridyls group of herbicides. Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide has the inhibitors of photosynthesis at photosystem I mode of action. For weed resistance management, Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide is a Group 22 herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide and Group 22 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 Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide or other Group 22 herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, AIRR Apparent Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide to control resistant weeds.

Mixing
The recommended rate of Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide should be added to water in the spray tank and agitated to give even mixing. Agitate again if left standing.

CONTROL OF WEEDS AFTER CROP HARVEST AND IN CULTIVATED AND NON-CULTIVATED FALLOWS – NORTHERN NEW SOUTH WALES AND QUEENSLAND ONLY
Use of Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide for weed control after cereal harvest procedure: New Zealand Spinach, Bladder Ketmia, and Milk Thistle are often present after cereal harvest. They can be controlled by the application of 1.6 to 2.4 L/ha of Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide in at least 100 L of clean water. Use a properly calibrated boom sprayer. Ensure that the boom is set for double overlap at the top of the weed canopy. The weed species must be free from dust and actively growing. They should not be shielded from the spray by stubble or trash. The use of a straw spreader at harvest is recommended.

USE OF APPARENT WEEDY SEEDY 250 HERBICIDE FOR THE CONTROL OF WEEDS DURING THE FALLOW PROCEDURE
Weeds must be controlled during the fallow to conserve moisture. While cultivation can eliminate weeds it also exposes the soil to moisture loss. In addition, repeated cultivations destroy soil structure, reduce organic matter, and stubble cover. This leads to the formation of hard pans, soil crusts and increases the risk of erosion. Under moist soil conditions weeds are frequently transplanted and not killed, weed growth holds the soil in clods. Apparent Weedy Seedy 250 Herbicide provides an economical and reliable alternative for fallow weed control.
