PRODUCT INFORMATION
BROADBAND Herbicide is a systemic, post-emergence herbicide for the selective control of: wild oats, green foxtail, yellow foxtail, volunteer oats, barnyard grass, volunteer canary seed and proso millet as well as hard-to-kill annual broadleaf weeds such as cleavers and chickweed in Spring Wheat (excluding durum) and Barley, not underseeded with legumes or canola in the prairie provinces and the interior of British Columbia.
BROADBAND Herbicide is absorbed by the leaves and is rapidly translocated to the growing points of leaves and stems of target weeds. BROADBAND Herbicide must be applied early post emergence, to the main flush of actively growing annual broadleaf and grass weeds. Warm, moist growing conditions promote active weed growth and enhance the activity of BROADBAND Herbicide by allowing maximum foliar uptake and contact activity. Weeds hardened off by cold weather or drought stress may not be adequately controlled and re-growth may occur.
Thorough coverage of the plants is essential for consistent control. BROADBAND Herbicide stops growth of susceptible weeds rapidly. Actively growing susceptible grass and broadleaf weeds stop growing within 48 hours of treatment, however, typical symptoms (discolouration) of dying broadleaf weeds may not be noticeable for 1 to 2 weeks after application. Depending on species, growing conditions and crop competition, leaves and growing points of annual grass weeds turn yellow within one to three weeks after application. Further colour changes and loss of vigour will be observed, followed by a browning and control three to five weeks after application. Degree of control and duration of effect are dependent on weed sensitivity, weed size, crop competition, growing conditions at and following treatment, and spray coverage.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
CROPS
BROADBAND Herbicide can be used on all varieties of Spring Wheat (excluding durum) and Barley.
One application per year is permitted.
Observe minimum interval to harvest of 60 days after treatment for grain and straw and of 30 days after treatment for hay. Observe a minimum of 7 days before grazing livestock on crops treated with BROADBAND Herbicide.
Do not apply on any crop other than Spring Wheat (excluding durum) or Barley, as crop damage will result. Do not allow spray to drift to adjacent fields seeded to crops other than Spring Wheat (excluding durum) or Barley. Do not treat Spring Wheat (excluding durum) or Barley under seeded to forages, legumes, or canola. Do not apply BROADBAND Herbicide on highly sensitive crops such as: Tame Oats, Red Millet, Crown Millet and Canary Seed.
Field sprayer application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
DO NOT apply by air.

USE RATE
Apply a uniform spray containing 650 mL/ha of BROADBAND Herbicide + 700 mL/ha of ADIGOR Adjuvant in a minimum of 50 L up to 100 L of water per hectare or the water volume as specified on the broadleaf herbicide partner label to thoroughly cover target weeds.

NOTES: Do not tank mix with any other adjuvant, chemical additives, pesticides or fertilizers unless recommended on this label.

ROTATIONAL CROP INFORMATION
For fields treated with BROADBAND Herbicide, no crop may be seeded until the following year. There are no crop rotation limitations the year following application of BROADBAND Herbicide.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Clean spray tank and half fill with clean water. Start agitation or bypass system.
2. If a broadleaf herbicide is to be used, add the product FIRST prior to adding BROADBAND Herbicide and agitate for 2-3 minutes.
3. Add correct amount of BROADBAND Herbicide.
4. Agitate for 2-3 minutes.
5. Add correct amount of ADIGOR Adjuvant.
6. Agitate for 1-2 minutes before adding remainder of water and then maintain constant agitation.
7. After any break in spraying operations, agitate thoroughly before spraying again.
8. Use the spray suspension as soon as it is prepared.
9. Follow sprayer directions and precautions as outlined above, especially when applying next to sensitive crops (e.g., forages, legumes, and canola).
10. Follow sprayer clean-up directions.
