GENERAL INFORMATION

This herbicide moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact to and into the root system. Visible effects on wheat occur within 4 days of treatment. Extremely cool or cloudy weather at treatment time may slow down activity of this product and delay visual effects of control. Visible effects are a gradual wilting and yellowing of the plant which advances to complete browning of above ground growth.
Reduced results may also occur when treating crop heavily covered with dust.
Heavy rainfall immediately after application may wash the chemical off the foliage and a repeat treatment may be required. Do not apply if rainfall is forecast for the time of application.
Do not mix with any surfactant, pesticide, herbicide oils or any other material other than water. For best results, spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray foliage to the point of runoff.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

ATTENTION: AVOID CONTACT WITH FOLIAGE, GREEN STEMS, OR FRUIT OF CROPS, DESIRABLE PLANTS AND TREES SINCE SEVERE INJURY OR DESTRUCTION MAY RESULT.
APPLY THESE SPRAY SOLUTIONS IN PROPERLY MAINTAINED AND CALIBRATED EQUIPMENT CAPABLE OF DELIVERING DESIRED VOLUMES.
AVOID DRIFT - EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN APPLYING THIS PRODUCT TO PREVENT INJURING DESIRABLE PLANTS AND CROPS. Do not allow spray mist to drift since even minute quantities of spray can cause severe damage or destruction to nearby crops, plants or other areas on which treatment is not intended, or may cause other unintended consequences. Do not apply when winds are gusty or in excess of 8 km/h or when other conditions, including lesser wind velocities, will allow drift to occur. When spraying, avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist) which are more likely to drift.
REDUCED RESULTS MAY OCCUR IF WATER CONTAINING SOIL IS USED, SUCH AS WATER FROM PONDS AND UNLINED DITCHES.
Clean sprayer and parts immediately after using this product by thoroughly flushing with water. Do not contaminate water sources by disposal of wastes or cleaning of equipment.
For ground or industrial type sprayers, fill the spray tank with one half the required amount of water (100 L/ha). Add the proper amount of herbicide and mix well before adding the remaining portion of water. Placing the filling hose below the surface of the liquid solution will prevent excessive foaming. Removing hose from tank immediately will avoid back siphoning into water source. Use of mechanical agitators may cause excessive foaming. Bypass lines should terminate at the bottom of the tank.
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 (ASEA) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground. 

PRE-HARVEST AND HARVEST MANAGEMENT IN WHEAT
For harvest management, MON 77759 Water Soluble Herbicide can be applied prior to harvest of wheat. DO NOT apply to crop if grown for seed production.
This treatment provides harvest management benefits, by drying down crop and weed vegetative growth in wheat where late flushes of weeds, green vegetative crop growth, or late tillering may interfere with harvest operations. EXTREMELY COOL, WET AND/OR CLOUDY WEATHER CONDITIONS BETWEEN THE TIME OF APPLICATION AND THE ANTICIPATED HARVEST DATE MAY SLOW DOWN ACTIVITY OF THIS PRODUCT, THEREBY DELAYING CROP DRYDOWN AND HARVEST DATE.
MON 77759 Water Soluble Herbicide should be applied pre-harvest at 1.9 L/ha in 100 L/ha of clean water for ground applications.
Apply only when the crop has 30% or less grain moisture content. This stage typically occurs 7 to 14 days before harvest. Consult the table "Guidelines for Timing of Preharvest Application" for visual indicators of this stage in the crop. Applications must be made at the correct stage of crop growth.
Earlier application may reduce crop yield and/or quality, and may lead to excess glyphosate residues in the crop. 
Overspray or drift to important wildlife habitats such as bodies of water, wetlands (e.g. sloughs), shelterbelts, woodlots and other cover on the edges of fields frequented by wildlife, should be avoided. Leave a 15 meter buffer zone between the last spray swath and the edge of any of these habitats.
Do not expose or contaminate any body of water or non-target vegetation by direct application, spray drift, or when cleaning and rinsing spray equipment.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
