A herbicide for use in field, seed, and sweet corn, MGI tolerant soybeans, mesotrione tolerant soybeans, flax, cranberry, asparagus (established), blueberry, rhubarb, pearl millet, sorghum and turf for control of annual broadleaf weeds.

GENERAL INFORMATION

MESTER 480SC Herbicide is a suspension concentrate herbicide that has soil residual activity and provides selective control or suppression of annual broadleaf weeds in corn, MGI tolerant soybeans, and other listed crops. MESTER 480SC Herbicide has a high level of crop safety to allow for flexibility in application timing in corn, MGI tolerant soybeans, and cranberries.
MESTER 480SC Herbicide may be tank mixed with a range of herbicides as part of a one pass broad-spectrum weed control program in corn, and MGI tolerant soybeans.
In post-emergent applications, MESTER 480SC Herbicide is absorbed through the leaves and is rapidly translocated to the plant's growing points.
MESTER 480SC Herbicide may also be tank mixed with a post-emergent grass herbicide for broader spectrum post-emergent weed control in corn.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

CORN
1.) Pre-emergent Application: (Field Corn, Production Seed Corn and Sweet Corn) – Eastern Canada Only
Apply MESTER 480SC Herbicide at 0.30 L per hectare in a spray volume of 200 L and a minimum pressure of 206 kPa (refer to the “MIXING AND SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this label).
MESTER 480SC Herbicide will control:
lamb’s-quarters
wild mustard
redroot pigweed common
ragweed (suppression)
velvetleaf
MESTER 480SC Herbicide tank-mixed with DUAL II MAGNUM, PRIMEXTRA II MAGNUM, DUAL II MAGNUM plus AATREX LIQUID 480 will provide broad-spectrum control of annual broadleaf and grass weeds. Consult the tank mix partner label for precautions, use rates and weeds controlled.

2.) Early Post-emergent Application: (Field Corn only) - Eastern Canada only
Apply MESTER 480SC Herbicide at 0.30 L per hectare in a spray volume of 200 L and a minimum pressure of 206 kPa (refer to the “MIXING AND SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this label).
MESTER 480SC Herbicide will control:
lamb’s-quarters
wild mustard
redroot pigweed
common ragweed (suppression)
velvetleaf
MESTER 480SC Herbicide tank-mixed with DUAL II MAGNUM, PRIMEXTRA II MAGNUM, DUAL II MAGNUM plus AATREX Liquid 480 will provide broad-spectrum control of annual broadleaf and grass weeds. Consult the tank mix partner labels for precautions, use rates and weeds controlled.

3.) Late Post-emergent Application: (Field Corn only) - Eastern Canada only Apply MESTER 480SC Herbicide at 0.21 L per hectare in a spray volume of 100-200 L of water and a minimum pressure of 206 kPa (refer to the “MIXING AND SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this label).
Always add a spray surfactant. Use the non-ionic surfactant AGRAL 90 at 0.20% v/v.
For best results, apply MESTER 480SC Herbicide to actively growing weeds. Weeds that emerge after an application of MESTER 480SC Herbicide will be controlled after they absorb the herbicide from the soil provided there is sufficient moisture for uptake.
MESTER 480SC Herbicide will control:
eastern black nightshade
redroot pigweed
velvetleaf
common ragweed (suppression only)
(up to the 8 leaf weed stage)
MESTER 480SC Herbicide tank-mixed with AATREX and a glyphosate containing product will provide control of all four weeds listed above plus emerged annual and perennial weeds for use
ONLY on glyphosate tolerant corn. MESTER 480SC Herbicide tankmixed with Ultim or Accent or Accent + AATREX or Ultim + AATREX will provide broadspectrum control of annual broadleaf and grass weeds. Consult tank mix partner labels for precautions. Consult Ultim and Accent labels for use rates and weeds controlled.
