For Control of Annual and Perennial Grasses and Broadleaf Weeds

STORAGE
Always store in original container with top closed.
Avoid contamination of seed, feed and foodstuffs.
Product is not affected by freezing.

SPILL CLEANUP
Observe safety and protective measures as noted under PRECAUTIONS.
Liquid spills on floor or other impervious surfaces should be contained or diked, and should be absorbed with attapulgite, bentonite or other absorbent clays (kitty litter, etc.) Collect contaminated absorbent, place in plastic-lined metal drum and dispose of in accordance with instructions provided under DISPOSAL. Thoroughly scrub floor or other impervious surfaces with a strong industrial type detergent solution and rinse with water.
Liquid spills that soak into the ground should be dug-up, placed in plastic-lined metal drums and disposed of in accordance with instructions provided under DISPOSAL.
Leaking containers should be separated from non-leakers and either the container or its contents transferred to a plastic-lined metal drum or other non-leaking container and disposed of by use according to label directions or in accordance with instructions provided under DISPOSAL. Any recovered spilled liquid should be similarly collected and disposed of according to the DECONTAMINATION AND DISPOSAL section.

DECONTAMINATION AND DISPOSAL
For information on disposal of unused, unwanted product, contact the manufacturer or the provincial regulatory agency. Contact the manufacturer and the provincial regulatory agency in case of a spill, and for clean-up of spills.

TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide is a water-soluble herbicide for non-selective weed control:
In cropping systems - before planting of all crops, pre-harvest application in wheat, barley, oats, canola (including glyphosate tolerant canola), peas, lentils, flax (including low linolenic acid varieties), soybeans (including glyphosate tolerant soybeans), dry beans, forages and post harvest stubble treatment;
Post emergent application in glyphosate tolerant canola, corn and soybean crops;
In pasture renovation;
In forage, legume and grass establishment;
In minimum and zero tillage systems;
In tree, vine and berry crops; apple, cherry, peach, apricot, pear, plum, grapes, blueberries, nuts, strawberries, cranberries and sugar beets;
In new ginseng gardens (B.C. only) and established ginseng beds.
TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide is to be applied as a foliage spray for the control of most herbaceous plants. It may be applied through most standard industrial or field type sprayers after dilution and thorough mixing with water in accordance with the booklet instructions.
TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact into the root system. Visible effects on most annual weeds occur within 2 to 4 days but on most perennial weeds may not occur until 7 to 10 days. Extremely cool or cloudy weather at treatment time may slow down activity of this product and delay visual effects of control. Visible ffects are a gradual wilting and yellowing of the plant, which advances to complete browning of above ground growth and deterioration of underground plant parts.
This product does not provide residual weed control. For subsequent residual weed control apply a registered residual herbicide. Read and carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information appearing on the labels of all herbicides used.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS
Reduced results may occur if water-containing soil is used, such as water from ponds and ditches. Poor control may also occur when treating weeds heavily covered with dust.
Avoid contact with desirable vegetation by direct application or spray drift as destruction may result.
Avoid drift or overspray to non-target vegetation and wildlife habitats.
Do not use in greenhouses.
Mix only the amount of solution to be used during a one-day period, as reduced activity may result from use of leftover solution.
Drain and clean application equipment immediately after using this product.
Do not contaminate water sources by disposal of waste or cleaning of equipment.
This product is highly toxic to aquatic and terrestrial plants. Overspray or drift to sensitive habitats should be avoided. A buffer zone of 15 metres is required between the downwind point of direct application and the closest edge of sensitive terrestrial habitats including forested areas, shelterbelts, woodlots, hedgerows, pastures, rangelands and shrublands. A buffer zone of 15 metres is required between the downwind point of direct application and the closest edge of sensitive aquatic habitats including sloughs, coulees, ponds, Prairie potholes, lakes, rivers, streams, reservoirs and wetlands and wildlife habitat at the edge of these bodies of water. Do not contaminate these habitats when cleaning and rinsing spray equipment or containers.
When a tank mixture is used, consult the label of the tank-mix partners and observe the largest (most restrictive) buffer zone of the products in the tank mixture.

GENERAL USE INFORMATION
Weeds Controlled
This product controls many annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds when applied as recommended and under conditions described. For information on how to control specific weeds including herbicide rate refer to the "Annual Weed Control" and "Perennial Weed Control" sections of this label.

AGRICULTURAL USES
The following are use situations for TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide. Information on the equipment selected to apply TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide can be found in the APPLICATION EQUIPMENT section. Use rates can then be selected from the TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide USE RATES section.
The type of vegetation present and the use situation will dictate the choice of application equipment.
ALWAYS REFER TO THE PRODUCT LABEL(S) FOR THE TANK MIX PARTNER(S) FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON WEEDS CONTROLLED, DIRECTIONS FOR USE, RESTRICTIONS, ROTATIONAL CROP INFORMATION AND PRECAUTIONARY LABEL STATEMENTS. WHEN APPLIED AS A TANK MIX, THE HIGHEST INDICATED BUFFER ZONE FOR THE TANK MIX PARTNER MUST BE MAINTAINED AROUND NON-TARGET AREAS.
PRIOR TO PLANTING (ALL CROPS):
This product may be applied prior to planting all crops for control of emerged weeds listed on this label. Apply before seeding or transplanting crops.
FORAGE LEGUMES & GRASSES
To control emerged vegetation prior to emergence of legumes and grasses. If legumes and grasses are to be under-seeded with a cover crop, TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide must be applied prior to planting any cover crop.
PASTURE RENOVATION
To control or suppress existing vegetation for zero-tillage seeding of legumes into established sod for renovation. Vegetation should be at least 20 cm in height with maximum number of seedlings and shoots emerged. Apply before or after seeding but before crop emerges.
MINIMUM AND ZERO TILLAGE SYSTEMS (ALL FIELD CROPS INCLUDING CEREALS, OILSEEDS, PULSES, FORAGES, SOYBEAN AND CORN)
Apply prior to or after seeding but before crop emerges for control of emerged weeds. DO NOT APPLY AFTER CROP EMERGENCE.
Since TOUCHDOWN iQ Liquid Herbicide alone does not provide residual weed control, application too far in advance of seeding will allow weeds to emerge between application and crop emergence.
Minimum and Zero Tillage Tank Mixtures:
ALWAYS REFER TO THE PRODUCT LABEL(S) FOR THE TANK MIX PARTNER(S) FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON WEEDS CONTROLLED, DIRECTIONS FOR USE, RESTRICTIONS, ROTATIONAL CROP INFORMATION AND PRECAUTIONARY LABEL STATEMENTS. WHEN APPLIED AS A TANK MIX, THE HIGHEST INDICATED BUFFER ZONE FOR THE TANK MIX PARTNER MUST BE MAINTAINED AROUND NON-TARGET AREAS.
The following tank mixtures may be applied prior to crop emergence to provide burndown and residual control of selected annual weeds.
