Fluro Star Herbicide is a selective herbicide for postemergent control of annual broadleaved weeds including cleavers and certain ALS-resistant broadleaved weeds such as kochia in spring wheat, durum wheat, and spring barley. Fluro Star Herbicide will also suppress hemp-nettle, common chickweed and wild buckwheat.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Fluro Star Herbicide is a selective postemergent herbicide for the control of annual broadleaved weeds in spring wheat, durum wheat and spring barley, not underseeded with legumes. Fluro Star Herbicide offers a novel mode of action for controlling hard-to-kill annual broadleaved weeds such as kochia (including
ALS resistant biotypes) and cleavers. Fluro Star Herbicide will also provide suppression of hempnettle, wild buckwheat and chickweed.

MODE OF ACTION
Fluro Star Herbicide is a systemic auxin-type herbicide and moves within the plant for control of exposed and underground plant tissues. The product controls weeds by disrupting normal plant growth patterns. Symptoms of weeds include epinasty (twisting of the stems) and swollen nodes.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Read the entire label before use. Failure to follow label instructions may result in erratic weed control or crop damage. DO NOT apply to crops underseeded with legumes.
As this product is not registered for the control of pests in aquatic systems, DO NOT use to control aquatic pests. DO NOT contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
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 S572.1) coarse classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
Application Timing
Apply to actively growing wheat and barley from the 2-leaf crop growth stage up to and including initiation of stem elongation. Apply when weeds are actively growing. Best results are obtained from applications made to seedling weeds. Only weeds emerged at the time of treatment will be controlled. Extreme growing conditions such as drought or near freezing temperature prior to, at and following time of application may reduce weed control and increase the risk of crop injury at all stages of growth. Foliage that is wet at the time of application may decrease control. Fluro Star Herbicide applications are rainfast within 1 hour after application. Under conditions of low crop and high weed density, control may be reduced.
Preharvest/Grazing Intervals (Fluro Star Herbicide applied alone)
 Livestock may be grazed on treated crops 3 days following application.
 Do not harvest the treated crop within 60 days after application.

Timing of Application
Apply postemergence when weeds are in the seedling stage (2-4 leaf) and when spring wheat, durum wheat and spring barley are in the 3-leaf to just before the flag leaf emergence stage. Do not apply later than the flag-leaf stage.
