FOR SALE FOR USE IN SPRING WHEAT, DURUM WHEAT, AND SPRING BARLEY IN THE PRAIRIE PROVINCES AND PEACE RIVER REGION OF BRITISH COLUMBIA ONLY

GENERAL INFORMATION
Section 1: The Product
For sale for use in the Prairie Provinces and Peace River region of British Columbia only.
- PUMA SUPER is a post-emergent herbicide that provides control of annual grassy weeds such as Wild Oats, Green Foxtail, and Barnyard Grass in Spring Wheat, Durum Wheat and Spring Barley.
- PUMA SUPER Herbicide must be applied according to label recommendations or crop injury and a reduction in weed control will occur.
- This container contains enough PUMA SUPER Herbicide to treat 8.1-16.2 hectares depending on the target grassy weed to be controlled.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Section 7: Crops, Weeds, Rates, Timing and Cautions
Cautions:
- Do not apply PUMA SUPER Herbicide alone in Spring Barley. Always tank mix with a recommended broadleaf weed partner. Refer to Spring Barley Section.
- Do not apply to Tame Oats as crop damage will occur.
- Durum Wheat: Initial crop injury in the form of shortening or discoloration may be observed after application. This condition is temporary and should not affect yield. This injury is more likely to occur when PUMA SUPER Herbicide is not tank mixed or when applied past the recommended leaf stage. Early application is important to maintain crop safety.
- Spring Barley: Initial crop injury in the form of shortening or discoloration may be observed after application. Such injury symptoms are more frequent and often more pronounced in Spring Barley than in Durum Wheat. This injury is most likely to occur when applications are made under certain stress conditions, such as cold and moist conditions or when applications are made past the 5 leaf, 2 tiller stage. Applications of PUMA SUPER Herbicide on Spring Barley should be avoided 2-3 days prior to or following cold temperatures (3 C or lower).
- Do not apply PUMA SUPER Herbicide to any field more often than once per year.

Rates:
- For control of Wild Oats, Green Foxtail and Barnyard Grass, apply PUMA SUPER Herbicide at 1 L/ha. At this rate, the contents of one 8.1 litre container of PUMA SUPER Herbicide treats 8.1 hectares.
- Under low Wild Oat infestations and when applying PUMA SUPER Herbicide alone in Spring and Durum Wheat, apply PUMA SUPER Herbicide at 870 mL/ha. At this rate, the contents of one 8.1 litre container of PUMA SUPER Herbicide treats 9.3 hectares.
- For Green Foxtail control only, apply PUMA SUPER Herbicide at 500 mL/ha. At this rate, the contents of one 8.1 litre container of PUMA SUPER Herbicide treats 16.2 hectares.

Timing:
- Apply to emerged, actively growing weeds, according to the weed stages listed.
- Under stressed conditions and/or heavy crop canopy, early application will result in improved grassy weed control.
- If application of PUMA SUPER Herbicide is not possible due to uneven weed germination, or differential germination of weeds and crops, consult your local weed specialist or the provincial weed control recommendations for the best alternate method of weed control.
- If another pesticide has already been applied, wait 7 days before applying PUMA SUPER Herbicide, or following application of PUMA SUPER Herbicide, a 4 day interval is required before applying another pesticide, except for those recommended on this label.
- Weeds that emerge after application will not be controlled.
- Note: Treatment at the 3-4 leaf stage of crops and weeds usually combines maximum crop tolerance and weed susceptibility. Under stressed conditions and/or heavy crop canopy, earlier application will result in improved grassy weed control.

Cautions:
- Application beyond the 6 leaf stage in Spring and Durum Wheats, or the 5-leaf stage in Spring Barley, may result in injury.
- Application of PUMA SUPER Herbicide must take place within the leaf stages outlined for all weeds on this label. Late application will result in reduced weed control.
- During periods of stress, plants are not actively growing. When daytime temperatures before or after application are very hot, combined with very dry conditions and low humidity, plants are under stress. Application of PUMA SUPER Herbicide during these periods may result in reduced weed control (and/or crop injury).
- Do not apply to a crop that is stressed by severe weather conditions, frost, low fertility, drought, water-saturated soil, disease or insect damage, as crop injury may result.
