GENERAL INFORMATION
ARMEZON PRO is to be applied as a pre-emergent or post-emergent treatment to field corn (conventional and herbicide tolerant hybrids) and will control most annual grass weeds and certain broadleaf weeds.
When applied pre-emergent to weeds and field corn, ARMEZON PRO is applied in tank-mix combination with atrazine for early season residual control of labelled weeds..
When emerged weeds are present, ARMEZON PRO plus atrazine is applied pre-emergent or post-emergent to corn in tank-mix combination with adjuvant(s) or glyphosate.

STORAGE
1. Store ARMEZON PRO in original container only.
2. Store ARMEZON PRO in a cool, dry place.
3. Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage.
4. Protect from freezing. If this product has been stored where freezing temperatures have occurred, allow product to thaw and agitate or mix contents of container well before use.

DISPOSAL
Recyclable Containers
Do not reuse this container for any purpose. This is a recyclable container, and is to be disposed of at a container collection site. Contact your local distributor/dealer or municipality for the location of the nearest collection site. Before taking the container to the collection site:
1. Triple- or pressure-rinse the empty container. Add the rinsings to the spray mixture in the tank.
2. Make the empty, rinsed container unsuitable for further use.
If there is no container collection site in your area, dispose of the container in accordance with provincial requirements.
For information on disposal of unused, unwanted product, contact the manufacturer or the provincial regulatory agency. Contact the manufacturer and the provincial regulatory agency in case of a spill, and for clean-up of spills.
Returnable-Refillable Containers
For disposal, this container may be returned to the point of purchase (distributor/dealer). It must be refilled by the distributor/dealer with the same product. Do not reuse this container for any other purpose.
For information on disposal of unused, unwanted product, contact the manufacturer or the provincial regulatory agency. Contact the manufacturer and the provincial regulatory agency in case of a spill, and for clean-up of spills.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
ARMEZON PRO will control most annual grass weeds and certain broadleaf weeds in field corn (conventional and herbicide tolerant hybrids). When used as directed, ARMEZON PRO provides early residual weed control, control of emerged weeds and provides residual control of late flushing weeds.
For best performance of emerged broadleaf and grassy weeds, spray before the weeds exceed the labelled maximum leaf stage.
Temperatures and moisture conditions for active plant growth are important for optimum ARMEZON PRO activity.
Rainfall is required to activate the residual properties of ARMEZON PRO. If drought conditions persist after the application of ARMEZON PRO, control of later flushing annual weeds may not be adequate.
ARMEZON PRO is effective on biotypes of species listed that may be resistant to glyphosate, triazines or ALS herbicide products.
ARMEZON PRO should be applied during favourable growing conditions for optimum crop tolerance and weed control. Crops under environmental stress are more likely to show injury from any herbicide application. Rarely, plants under these conditions treated with ARMEZON PRO may show some transient bleaching of the portion of the leaves intercepting the spray application. These symptoms are transient and occur infrequently. Growth is not affected and normal plant appearance is seen within 1 to 2 weeks.
SPRAY ADDITIVES
For best adherence and foliar uptake by emerged weeds, ARMEZON PRO may require the addition of spray additives to the spray solution. Consult the Application Direction tables for rates and recommendations.
FIELD CORN
ARMEZON PRO is to be applied as a pre-emergent or post-emergent treatment to field corn (conventional and herbicide tolerant hybrids).
When applied pre-emergent to weeds and field corn, ARMEZON PRO is applied in tank-mix combination with atrazine for early season residual control of labelled weeds.
When emerged weeds are present, ARMEZON PRO plus atrazine is applied pre-emergent or post-emergent to corn in tank-mix combination with adjuvant(s) or glyphosate.
Glyphosate as a tank mix partner will allow for the control of weeds in addition to those on the ARMEZON PRO label; refer to the glyphosate label for additional information.
Refer to the atrazine and glyphosate labels for precautions, restrictions and limitations. Always use in accordance with the most restrictive label restrictions and precautions.

ROTATIONAL CROPPING
In the event of crop failure in fields treated with ARMEZON PRO, only field corn can be planted as a rescue crop. A second application of ARMEZON PRO cannot be made in the rescue crop.
Fields treated with ARMEZON PRO can be seeded to winter wheat at a minimum four months after application and can be seeded to spring wheat, field corn, navy (white) beans, soybeans, peas and alfalfa the following year.
Conduct a field bioassay (a test strip grown to maturity) the year before growing any other crop.
Refer to the tank mix partner’s product label for any additional recropping restrictions.

SPRAY DRIFT PRECAUTIONS
ARMEZON PRO may cause injury to desirable trees and plants. Follow these precautions when spraying in the vicinity of sensitive crops:
1. Do not spray ARMEZON PRO if wind velocity exceeds 8 km/h. Leave an adequate buffer zone between spraying area and sensitive plants.
2. Use high-volume droplets under low pressure. Use coarse droplets since they are less likely to drift than fine droplets. Follow nozzle manufacturer’s directions to ensure these conditions are met.
3. Apply only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity such as houses, cottages, schools and recreational areas is minimal. Take into consideration wind speed, wind direction, temperature, application equipment and sprayer settings.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS AND ORDER
ARMEZON PRO Tank Mixes:
1. When applying ARMEZON PRO, always start with a clean sprayer. Thoroughly clean the sprayer following sprayer clean-up recommendations on the previous product label.
2. Fill the clean spray tank half full with clean water and start agitation system.
3. If using a wettable powder or water dispersible granule tank mix partner add the correct amount to the tank and continue agitation until thoroughly dispersed.
4. If required, add the correct amount of liquid or solution herbicide tank mix partner.
5. Add the correct amount of ARMEZON PRO while continuing agitation.
6. If required, when tank mixing with glyphosate: If adding a glyphosate formulation with full load of surfactant, add the correct amount to the tank after the addition of ARMEZON PRO. If adding a glyphosate formulation with low load of surfactant, add the correct amount during Step 4 (ie. prior to adding ARMEZON PRO into tank).
7. If required, add either MERGE Adjuvant to the spray tank or ASSIST followed by liquid fertilizer (UAN 28%), with the exception of glyphosate tank-mixes.
8. While agitating, fill the remainder of the tank with water up to the proper level.
9. Maintain continuous and constant agitation throughout application until spraying is complete.
10. After any break in spraying operation agitate thoroughly before spraying again. Check inside the tank to ensure the sprayer agitation is sufficient to remix the spray materials. Do not allow the mixture to sit overnight.
11. If an oil film starts to build up in the tank, drain it and clean the tank with strong detergent solution.
Dispose of all rinsings in accordance with provincial regulations.
