PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide is recommended for selective post-emergent control or suppression of broadleaf weeds in wheat (spring and durum) and spring barley not underseeded to legumes or grasses.
DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide contains three active ingredients formulated as a suspension. DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide is to be mixed with water and applied as a uniform broadcast spray early postemergence to the crop, to the main flush of actively growing broadleaf weeds.
Warm, moist growing conditions promote active weed growth and enhance the activity of DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide by allowing maximum foliar uptake and contact activity. Weeds hardened off by cold weather or drought stress may not be adequately controlled or suppressed and regrowth may occur. For best results, ensure thorough spray coverage of target weeds. See "DIRECTIONS FOR USE" section of this label for complete use details.
Degree of control and duration of effect are dependent on weed sensitivity, weed size, crop competition, growing conditions at and following treatment, and spray coverage.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: READ BEFORE USING
Injury to or loss of desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the following:
Do not apply, drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants, or on areas where their roots may extend, or in locations where the chemical may be washed or moved into contact with their roots.
Do not use on lawns, walks, driveways, recreational grounds or similar areas.
Prevent drift of spray to desirable plants.
Do not contaminate any body of water, including irrigation water that may be used on other crops.
Carefully observe sprayer clean-up instructions, as spray tank residues may damage crops other than wheat and spring barley.

REPLANTING TO OTHER CROPS
The following crops may be seeded 10 months after application: canola, flax, oats, peas, spring wheat (including durum), spring barley.

APPLICATION PRECAUTIONS
Do not apply to irrigated land where tail water will be used to irrigate cropland.
Overspray or drift to important wildlife habitats such as shelterbelts, wetlands, sloughs or dry slough borders and woodlots should be avoided.
Use only water as a carrier. Other carriers may accelerate breakdown of DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide and reduce its effectiveness.
Do not apply to crops underseeded to legumes or grasses as injury to forage may result.
Application to crops that are stressed by severe weather conditions, frost, low fertility, water logged soil (soil at or near field capacity), disease or insect damage may result in crop injury. Drought, disease or insect damage following application may also result in crop injury.
Under certain conditions, such as heavy rainfall, prolonged cool weather, frost or wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures, temporary lightening in crop colour, and occasionally, a slight reduction in crop height may occur.
DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide activity is influenced by weather conditions. Optimum activity requires active crop and weed growth. The temperature range for optimum activity is 12 C to 24 C. Reduced activity will occur when temperatures are below 8 C or above 27 C. Frost before application (3 days) or shortly after (3 days) may reduce weed control and crop tolerance. Weed control may be reduced during stress conditions, e.g. drought, heat or cold stress, or if weeds have initiated flowering, or if heavy infestations exist.
Do not apply more than 0.5 L/hectare of DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide per year.
If using other herbicides containing the active ingredient metsulfuron methyl, restrict total use of metsulfuron methyl to 1.5 grams active ingredient per hectare per year.
Apply only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity (houses, cottages, schools and recreational areas) is minimal. Take into consideration wind speed, wind direction, temperature inversions, application equipment and sprayer settings.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
GROUND APPLICATION: Apply the spray mixture uniformly with properly calibrated ground equipment only. Ensure thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern. Flat fan nozzles are recommended (minimum 55 litres spray volume per hectare). Use 50 mesh or larger filter screens (metal or nylon). A spray pressure of 210-275 kPa is recommended. Avoid overlapping and shut off spray boom while starting, turning, slowing or stopping to prevent crop injury from over application.
AERIAL APPLICATION: Apply only by fixed-wing or rotary aircraft equipment, which has been functionally and operationally calibrated for the atmospheric conditions of the area and the application rates and conditions of this label. Label rates, conditions and precautions are product specific. Read and understand the entire label before opening this product. Apply only at the rate recommended for aerial application on this label. Where no rate for aerial application appears for the specific use, this product cannot be applied by any type of aerial equipment. Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
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) coarse classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
Aerial application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 16 km/h at flying height at the site of application. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) coarse classification. To reduce drift caused by turbulent wingtip vortices, the nozzle distribution along the spray boom length MUST NOT exceed 65% of the wing- or rotorspan.

MIXING DIRECTIONS
Select a spray volume that will ensure thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern. Use a minimum of 55 L of spray volume per hectare for ground application and between 25 to 50 L of spray volume per hectare for aerial application. If tank mixing with other herbicides, always consult the label of the tank mix partner(s) for minimum spray volume requirements and apply the tank mixture using a water volume recommended for all products.
1. Always start with a clean and empty sprayer tank.
2. Fill the tank to 1/2 full of clean water.
3. With the agitator running, add the required amount of DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide. Continue agitation until DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide is completely dispersed.
4. If tank mixing DUPONT TRAVALLAS Herbicide with another herbicide, follow this mixing order: Dry flowables and soluble granules first, followed by solutions, then oil dispersions (OD) or emulsifiable concentrates (EC). Maintain continuous agitation. Add the rest of the water.
5. Add the appropriate adjuvant, if required. If an antifoam agent is required, add last.
