Wash out container thoroughly, empty washings into spray tank and dispose of safely. See DECONTAMINATION AND DISPOSAL section.
Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs.
Do not contaminate ponds, waterways or ditches with chemical. See ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS.
Store in original container, tightly closed, in a safe place.
Apply only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity such as houses, cottages, schools and recreational areas is minimal. Take into consideration wind speed, wind direction, temperature, application equipment and sprayer settings.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
HARMFUL to aquatic organisms. Avoid direct application to any body of water populated with fish or used for domestic purposes. Do not use in areas where adverse impact on domestic water or aquatic species is likely. Do not contaminate water by disposal of waste or cleaning of equipment. Avoid all drift to or contact with other vegetation for which treatment is not intended as damage or destruction may occur. Do not apply using aerial spray equipment except where indicated under “RESTRICTED USE”.

PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL HAZARDS
Spray solutions of TRAXION Herbicide should be mixed, stored and applied only in stainless steel, aluminium, fibreglass, plastic and plastic-lined steel containers.
DO NOT MIX, STORE OR APPLY TRAXION HERBICIDE OR SPRAY SOLUTIONS OF TRAXION HERBICIDE IN GALVANIZED STEEL OR UNLINED STEEL (EXCEPT STAINLESS STEEL) CONTAINERS OR SPRAY TANKS. TRAXION Herbicide or spray solutions of TRAXION Herbicide react with such containers and tanks to produce hydrogen gas, which may form a highly combustible gas mixture. This gas mixture could flash or explode, causing serious personal injury, if ignited by open flame, spark, welder's torch, lighted cigarette or other ignition source.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
Do not apply this product using aerial equipment except where indicated under “RESTRICTED USE”.
TRAXION 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.
TRAXION 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.
TRAXION 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 effects 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.

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 AND 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, TRAXION 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 TRAXION 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.

WEED CONTROL IN GLYPHOSATE TOLERANT CANOLA
WARNING: APPLY TRAXION HERBICIDE ON GLYPHOSATE TOLERANT CANOLA VARIETIES ONLY
NOTE: ALWAYS USE PEDIGREED (I.E. CERTIFIED) GLYPHOSATE TOLERANT CANOLA SEED. CANOLA WHICH IS NOT DESIGNATED AS GLYPHOSATE TOLERANT WILL BE DAMAGED OR DESTROYED BY THIS TREATMENT.
Apply TRAXION Herbicide in glyphosate tolerant canola only as directed by the following weed control table.
Some short-term, visual yellowing may occur when TRAXION Herbicide is applied at the late application (4 to 6 leaf stage) of the crop. This effect is temporary and will not influence crop growth, maturity or yield.
Make pre-harvest applications at least 14 days before harvest.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIRCRAFT.
The following table describes the rate and specific application instructions for control of annual and perennial weeds in glyphosate tolerant canola varieties.

WEED CONTROL IN GLYPHOSATE TOLERANT CANOLA
Rate (L/ha) - 0.60 – 1.35
Growth Stage of Crop – 0 to 6 leaf
Weeds Controlled – Annual Grasses: Wild oats, green foxtail, volunteer barley, volunteer wheat, barnyard grass; Annual Broadleaves: Stinkweed, redroot pigweed, wild mustard, Russian thistle, lamb's-quarters, non-glyphosate tolerant volunteer canola, hemp-nettle, lady's-thumb, kochia, chickweed, corn spurry, wild tomato, cleavers (1), wild buckwheat (1), shepherd's-purse (1), cow cockle (1), night-flowering catchfly (1), smartweed (1), stork’s bill (1), flixweed (1), narrow-leaved hawk’s beard (1), round-leaved mallow (3); Perennials (suppression) (2): Canada thistle, perennial sowthistle, dandelion; Perennials (season long control): Quack grass (2), foxtail barley (3), Canada thistle (3), perennial sowthistle (4)
Comments (Apply in 50 - 100 L/ha water) - No additional surfactant is required at the higher rate.
Repeat applications may be required if a second flush of weeds germinates prior to canopy closure.
Ensure the crop has not advanced beyond the recommended growth stage.
(1) Use the 0.90 L/ha rate for control of these weeds at all crop growth stages.
The lower rate can be used for control of shepherd's-purse, cow cockle and night-flowering catchfly at the 1-3 leaf stage of the crop, or for control of smartweed at the 4-6 leaf stage.
(2) A single application at the 0.90 L/ha rate is required.
(3) Sequential applications at the 0.90 L/ha rate are required.
(4) Sequential applications at the 0.90 L/ha rate are required or a single application of 1.35 L/ha.
For sequential applications, ensure the crop has not advanced beyond the recommended growth stage.

TRAXION Herbicide plus Lontrel 360
For season long control of top growth of Canada thistle and control of wild buckwheat in glyphosate tolerant canola, apply a tank mixture of 0.28 L/ha of Lontrel 360 with 0.9 L/ha of TRAXION Herbicide, in 100 litres of water per hectare. Apply when canola is in the 2-6 leaf stage. For more information on weeds controlled and rates, follow the label directions for TRAXION Herbicide and Lontrel 360.

SPOT TREATMENTS (IN-CROP)
May be used to control perennial weeds in barley, corn, oats, soybeans, wheat, strawberry, blueberry, forage grasses and legumes including seed production. Treatments may be made up to heading of small grain, initial pod set on soybeans, silking of corn, and emergence of seed heads. The crop in the treated area will be destroyed. Avoid drift beyond the treated area. DO NOT APPLY IF CROP GROWTH HAS ADVANCED BEYOND SEED SET. [ALLOW 3 TO 5 DAYS FOR TRAXION HERBICIDE TO TRANSLOCATE INTO ALL PLANT PARTS BEFORE GRAZING OR HARVESTING TREATED AREAS IN FORAGES.] (See General Use Precautions section for more information).
Application can be made using a boom sprayer, knapsack or high volume equipment (see APPLICATION EQUIPMENT).

FORAGE SEED PRODUCTIONS (FOR SPOT TREATMENT)
To control perennial weeds such as quack grass and Canada thistle in seed fields. Apply to weeds at least 20 to 25 cm in height and before emergence of seed head. The crop in the treated area will be destroyed. Avoid drift outside of treated area.

PRE-HARVEST USE ON wheat, barley, oats, canola (including glyphosate tolerant canola), peas, lentils, flax (including low linolenic acid varieties), soybeans (including glyphosate tolerant soybeans), dry beans, forages
GROUND OR AERIAL APPLICATION
AERIAL PRE-HARVEST APPLICATION IS A RESTRICTED USE, FOLLOW DIRECTIONS IN “RESTRICTED USE - PREHARVEST AERIAL APPLICATION FOR SALE FOR USE IN THE PRAIRIE PROVINCES ONLY (including PEACE RIVER REGION OF B.C.)”
For control of quack grass, Canada thistle, common milkweed, dandelion, toadflax, and season long control of perennial sowthistle. TRAXION Herbicide can be applied prior to harvest of wheat, barley, oats, canola (including glyphosate tolerant canola), peas, lentils, flax (including low linolenic acid varieties), soybeans (including glyphosate tolerant soybeans), dry beans, forages. DO NOT apply to crops if grown for seed production.
This treatment may also provide harvest management benefits, by drying down crop and weed vegetative growth, for example, where late flushes of annual 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.
TRAXION Herbicide should be applied pre-harvest at 1.8 L/ha in 50 to 100 L/ha of clean water, by ground application only. Apply only when the crop has 30 % or less grain moisture content. This stage typically occurs 7 to 14 days before harvest. For forage crops, apply this product at 1.8 to 3.6 litres per hectare 3 to 7 days prior to the last cut before rotation or forage renovation. Consult the following table for visual indicators of this stage in each crop. For the best weed control results, quack grass should be actively growing and have at least 4 to 5 green leaves. Canada thistle and perennial sowthistle should be actively growing and at or beyond the bud stage for best results. Common milkweed should be at the bud to bloom stage and actively growing for best results. Applications for weed control (not for harvest management) must be made at the correct stage of both weed and crop growth.
Apply only during the period 7-14 days (or 3 to 7 days for forage application, 14 days for glyphosate tolerant soybeans) before harvest to ensure best weed control and to maximize harvest management benefits. Earlier application may reduce crop yield and/or quality, and may lead to excess glyphosate residues in the crop.
Forage can be harvested as hay, haylage or grazed.
Overspray or drift to important wildlife habitats such as bodies of water, wetlands (e.g. sloughs), shelter belts, woodlots and other cover on the edges of fields frequented by wildlife, should be avoided.
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 AIRCRAFT.

SUMMERFALLOW
This product, or labelled tank mixes, may be applied in summerfallow to control weeds listed on this label. Refer to the table “ANNUAL WEED CONTROL TANK MIXTURES FOR SUMMERFALLOW AND MINIMUM TILL”.
Ensure weeds are at the desired growth stage and actively growing at application for best results. Reduced control may result if weeds are drought stressed. Weeds will continue to germinate from seed throughout the growing season. Repeat treatments may be necessary to control later germinating weeds.

POST HARVEST STUBBLE TREATMENT
This product, or labelled tank mixes, may be applied to control weeds listed on this label. Allow weeds to regrow to the desired stage (20 to 25 centimetres tall for quack grass and Canada thistle) before application and ensure they have a high proportion of green colouration. Straw should be removed or evenly spread to allow for proper regrowth and spray coverage. Heavy frosts prior to application may decrease control.

TRAXION Herbicide plus Dicamba (480 g/L)
For control of Canada thistle and perennial sowthistle in post harvest stubble, apply 1.2 L/ha of TRAXION Herbicide plus 1.25 L/ha dicamba (480 g/L formulation) in 100-200 L/ha of clean water. An adjuvant must be added for use with this tank mixture.
In post harvest stubble, apply this tank mixture to actively growing Canada thistle and perennial sowthistle at least 2 weeks prior to a killing frost.
NOTE: Grow only cereals, canola (including rapeseed), soybeans, field corn, sweet corn, or white beans after application of this mixture.
If application is made after September 1st, or if soil moisture levels are extremely low after application, crop injury may occur in the spring following application.

FALL STUBBLE
This product, or labelled tank mixes, may be applied in fall stubble to control weeds listed on this label

TREE, VINE AND BERRY CROPS
To control annual and perennial weeds in established vineyards or orchards, or for site preparation prior to transplanting tree and vine crops.
Use boom sprayer, shielded sprayers, hand held guns, or wiper, roller or wick applicators (the latter three are for use only in orchards or vineyards).
Repeat applications may be necessary as new seedlings emerge or underground parts of untreated weeds emerge.
DO NOT APPLY MORE THAN 25 L/ha OF TRAXION Herbicide PER YEAR.
EXTREME CARE MUST BE EXERCISED TO AVOID CONTACT OF TRAXION SOLUTION, SPRAY DRIFT OR MIST WITH FOLIAGE OR GREEN BARK OF TRUNK, BRANCHES, SUCKERS, FRUIT, OR OTHER PARTS OF TREES OR VINES. CONTACT OF TRAXION HERBICIDE WITH ANY OTHER THAN MATURED BROWN BARK CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS CROP DAMAGE.

USE RATES
TRAXION Herbicide applied alone will not control glyphosate tolerant volunteer crops.
Results are best when weeds are actively growing. If weeds have been mowed, allow to return to optimum growth stages.
Delay application until vegetation has emerged to the stages described for control of such vegetation under the Annual and Perennial Weed Control tables of this booklet to provide adequate leaf surface to receive the spray. Non-emerged plants arising from underground rhizomes or rootstocks of perennials will not be affected by the spray and will continue to grow. For this reason, best control of most perennial weeds is obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages approaching maturity.
Always use the higher rate of TRAXION Herbicide per hectare within the recommended range when weed growth is heavy or dense or weeds are growing in an undisturbed (non-cultivated) area.
Do not treat weeds under poor growing conditions such as drought stress, disease or insect damage as reduced weed control may result.
TRAXION Herbicide may be used with the following surfactants: AGRAL 90 or AgSurf. Always refer to surfactant label for specific instructions regarding use of that product.
Heavy rainfall immediately after application may wash the chemical off the foliage and a repeat application may be required. Do not apply if rainfall is forecasted for the time of application.
Do not mix with any surfactant, pesticide, herbicide, oil or any other material other than water unless specified in this booklet. For best results, spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray weed foliage to the point of runoff.

ANNUAL WEED CONTROL
TRAXION Herbicide applied alone will not control glyphosate tolerant volunteer crops.
Allow at least one day after treatment before conducting tillage.
Annual weeds will continue to germinate from seed throughout the growing season. It may be necessary to conduct repeat applications to control later germinating weeds.

PERENNIAL WEED CONTROL
Weed Stages: Weeds must be at the proper stage for effective control. Refer to “PERENNIAL WEED CONTROL” Table.
Nozzle Type: For best results with conventional boom equipment, apply this product with 50 to 300 litres per hectare of clean water using flat fan nozzles and no more than 275 kPa pressure.
Rhizome Dormancy: Reduced control may result if rhizomes have become dormant. Dormancy may occur if soil fertility is low and/or the land has not been tilled for several years.
Mowing Effects: Mowing prior to application will reduce effectiveness unless weeds are allowed to regrow to the proper stage before application.
Tillage Effects: Fall or spring tillage prior to spring applications and tillage between harvesting and fall applications will reduce the effectiveness on perennial weeds. Follow-up tillage after application should be delayed 5 to 10 days for best results. See “Weed Control” tables for specific tillage interval for each weed.
Rainfall Effects: Heavy rainfall immediately after application may wash the chemical off the foliage and a repeat treatment may be required to control weeds regenerating from seeds or other underground parts. Do not apply if rainfall is forecast for the time of application.
Regrowth from Germinating Seeds: This product only controls emerged plants. Repeat treatments or other weed control measures may be required to control weeds regenerating from seeds or other underground parts.
Frost Effects: Heavy frosts prior to application may reduce control. Do not apply after the first damaging frost in the fall

Only cereal crops not underseeded to legumes may be planted following spring applications of this tank mix, and a 14 day interval between application and planting is required. Use the higher TRAXION Herbicide rates when perennial grasses are prevalent.

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT (Mixing and Application Instructions)
AERIAL Equipment
AERIAL APPLICATION IS A RESTRICTED USE. FOLLOW DIRECTIONS IN “RESTRICTED USE - PREHARVEST AERIAL APPLICATION FOR SALE FOR USE IN THE PRAIRIE PROVINCES ONLY (including PEACE RIVER REGION OF B.C.)”

BOOM (Ground Boom) and BOOMLESS Equipment:
Mixing
For field or industrial type sprayers, fill the spray tank with one half the required amount of water. Add the proper amount of TRAXION Herbicide (see Use Rate Table) and mix well before adding the remaining portion of water. Placing the filling hose below the surface of the liquid solution will prevent any excessive foaming. Remove the hose from tank immediately after filling to avoid back siphoning into water source (a one-way valve should be installed to prevent back siphoning). Use of mechanical agitators may cause excessive foaming. By-pass lines should terminate at the bottom of the tank.
If tank mixing, use the following mixing order:
1. Fill the spray tank with 1/2 the required amount of water.
2. Add any WG or DF formulation mix partners, and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
3. Add any suspension concentrate (SC) formulation mix partners, and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
4. Add the non-ionic surfactant, if using PRIMEXTRA II MAGNUM Agricultural Herbicide as a mix partner and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
5. Add any emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulation mix partners and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
6. Fill the tank to 3/4 the required amount of water.
7. Add any solution (SN) formulation mix partners and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
8. Add TRAXION Herbicide.
9. Finish filling the sprayer with water, maintaining gentle agitation.

Application
Use flat fan nozzles in boom sprayers. To control perennial weeds, apply TRAXION Herbicide in 50 to 300 L of water per hectare as a broadcast spray. Use no more than 275 kPa pressure.
To control annual weeds as listed, apply TRAXION Herbicide in 50 L to 100 L of water per hectare as a broadcast spray. Use no more than 275 kPa pressure.

KNAPSACK SPRAYERS HAND HELD AND HIGH VOLUME EQUIPMENT
High volume spraying utilizes handguns or other suitable nozzle arrangements to apply a directed spray to weeds. Use coarse sprays only.

Mixing
Mix the proper amount of TRAXION Herbicide with water in a larger container. Fill the sprayer with the mixed solution.
Unless otherwise stated, make a 0.7 % solution of TRAXION Herbicide in water (0.7 L of TRAXION Herbicide in 100 L of water). A 1.4 % solution (1.4 L of TRAXION Herbicide in 100 L of water) should be used on harder to control perennials.

Application
Spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Apply on a spray-to-wet basis. Do not spray to the point of run-off. Handgun application should be properly directed to avoid spraying desirable plants.

WIPER, WICK AND ROLLER EQUIPMENT
These applicators apply TRAXION Herbicide solution directly onto the weeds by contacting the weed with an absorbent material containing the herbicide solution. The weeds must be above any desired vegetation to prevent contact with the desired vegetation.

Mixing
Mix the proper amount of TRAXION Herbicide with water in a larger container. Use this mixed solution in the wiper, wick or roller equipment.

Application
These applicators can be used to control weeds in the following agricultural crops:
apple, cherry, peach, apricot, pear and plum orchards, grape vineyards and cranberries.
The applicator should be adjusted so that the contact point of the wiper, roller or wick is at least 5 cm above the desirable vegetation. Droplets or foam of the TRAXION Herbicide solution settling on desirable vegetation may result in discolouration, stunting or destruction.
Weeds should be a minimum of 15 cm above the desired vegetation.
Best results may be obtained if two applications are made in opposite directions where possible.
Otherwise, best results may be obtained when more of the weed is exposed to TRAXION Herbicide.
Weeds not contacted will not be affected. This may occur in dense clumps, severe infestation, or when the height of the weeds varies so that not all weeds are contacted. In these instances, a repeat treatment may be necessary.

AVOID CONTACT WITH DESIRABLE VEGETATION.

Application Notes:
Maintain wiper equipment in good operating condition. Care must be taken with all types of wipers to ensure that the absorbent material does not become over saturated, causing the herbicide to drip onto desirable vegetation.
Avoid leakage or dripping onto desirable vegetation.
Adjust height of wiper applicator to ensure proper contact with weeds.
Keep wiping surfaces clean.
Maintain recommended roller speed on roller applicators while in use.
DO NOT use wiper equipment when weeds are wet.
DO NOT operate equipment at ground speeds below 4 and greater than 10 km/h. Weed control may be affected by speed of application equipment. As weed density increases, reduce equipment ground speed to ensure good coverage of weeds.
Be aware that on sloping ground the herbicide solution may migrate, causing dripping on the lower end and drying on the upper end of the wiper applicator.
Variation in equipment design may affect weed control. With wiper applicators, the wiping material and its orientation must allow delivery of sufficient quantities of the recommended TRAXION Herbicide solution directly to the weed.
Mix only the amount of solution to be used during a one-day period, as reduced activity may result from use of leftover solution. Thoroughly drain and clean all equipment immediately after use.

AERIAL APPLICATION
Aerial application can only be used in preharvest situations. Refer to information below for further directions, precautions and restrictions.
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.
Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear, after each day of spraying to remove residues of this product accumulated during spraying or from spills. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO UNCOATED STEEL SURFACES MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE PART. LANDING GEAR ARE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE. The maintenance of an organic coating (paint) which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38412 may prevent corrosion.

Use Precautions
Apply only when meteorological conditions at the treatment site allow for complete and even crop coverage. Apply only under conditions of good practice specific to aerial application as outlined in the National Aerial Pesticide Application Manual, developed by the Federal/Provincial/Territorial Committee on Pest Management and Pesticides.
Do not apply to any body of water. Avoid drifting of spray onto any body of water or other non-target areas. Specified buffer zones should be observed.
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, therefore, avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist). Do not apply during periods of dead calm or when wind velocity and direction pose a risk of spray drift. Do not spray when the wind is blowing towards a nearby sensitive crop, garden, terrestrial habitat (such as shelter-belt) or aquatic habitat.

Operator Precautions
Do not allow the pilot to mix chemicals to be loaded onto the aircraft. Loading of premixed chemicals with a closed system is permitted.
It is desirable that the pilot have communication capabilities at each treatment site at the time of application.
The field crew and the mixer/loaders must wear chemical resistant gloves, coveralls and goggles or face shield during mixing/loading, cleanup and repair. Follow the more stringent label precautions in cases where the operator precautions exceed the generic label recommendations on the existing ground boom label.
All personnel on the job site must wash hands and face thoroughly before eating and drinking. Protective clothing, aircraft cockpit and vehicle cabs must be decontaminated regularly.

Product Specific Precautions
Read and understand the entire label before opening this product. If you have questions, call the manufacturer at 1-87-SYNGENTA (1-877-964-3682) or obtain technical advice from the distributor or your provincial agricultural representative.

Use Precautions
AVOID DRIFT ONTO IMPORTANT WILDLIFE HABITATS. EXTREME CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN APPLYING THIS PRODUCT TO PREVENT INJURING DESIRABLE PLANTS AND CROPS.
Apply only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity such as houses, cottages, schools and recreational areas is minimal. Take into consideration wind speed, wind direction, temperature, application equipment and sprayer settings.
Do not apply when other climatic conditions, including lesser wind velocities, will allow significant drift to occur. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, therefore do not use nozzles or nozzle configurations which disperse spray as fine spray droplets. Do not angle nozzles forward into the airstream and do not increase spray volume by increasing nozzle pressure. See number 1 under "Nature of Restrictions" for additional details.
Do not overspray or allow drift onto bodies of water, wetlands (1) and/or wetland vegetation (eg. sloughs, swamps, bogs, marshes, potholes), shelterbelts, woodlots and other cover on the edge of fields, for all aerial application uses outlined in this label.
Do not apply directly to roadside ditches, or apply under conditions that would favour drift into roadside ditches.
(1) A wetland is any land where the water table stands at or above the land surface for at least part of the year, and contains vegetation associated with wetlands such as bulrushes, sedges, cattails, etc.
Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices or equivalent electronic positioning systems (GPS).
Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear, after each day of spraying to remove residues of this product accumulated during spraying or from spills. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO UNCOATED STEEL SURFACES MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE PART. LANDING GEAR ARE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE.

TRAXION Herbicide can be applied prior to harvest of wheat, barley, oats, canola (including glyphosate tolerant canola), flax (including low linolenic acid varieties), lentils, peas, dry beans, forages and soybeans (including glyphosate tolerant soybeans). DO NOT apply to any crops if grown for seed production.
This treatment may also provide harvest management benefits by drying down crop and weed vegetative growth, for example, where late flushes of annual 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.
TRAXION Herbicide should be applied at 1.8 L/ha in 20 - 50 L/ha of clean water with aerial application equipment. Apply only when the crop has 30% or less grain moisture content. This stage typically occurs 7 to 14 days before harvest. For forage crops, apply this product at 1.8 to 3.6 litres per hectare 3 to 7 days prior to the last cut before rotation or forage renovation. Consult the table "Guidelines for Timing of Preharvest Applications" for visual indicators of this stage in each crop. For the best weed control results, quack grass should be actively growing and have at least 4 to 5 green leaves. Canada thistle and perennial sowthistle should be actively growing and at or beyond the bud stage for best results. Common milkweed should be at the bud to bloom stage and actively growing for best results. Applications for weed control (not for harvest management) must be made at the correct stage of both weed and crop growth.
Apply only during the period 7-14 days (or 14 days for glyphosate tolerant soybeans) before harvest to ensure best weed control and to maximize harvest management benefits. Earlier application may reduce crop yield and/or quality, and may lead to excess glyphosate residues in the crop.
Forage can be harvested as hay, haylage or grazed.

GUIDELINES FOR TIMING OF PREHARVEST APPLICATIONS
CROP(S) VISUAL SYMPTOMS (grain moisture is less than 30 %)
Wheat - Hard dough stage; thumbnail impression remains on the seed.
Barley - Hard dough stage; thumbnail impression remains on the seed.
Oats - Hard dough stage; thumbnail impression remains on the seed.
Canola (including Glyphosate Tolerant Canola) - Pods are green to yellow; most seeds are yellow to brown.
Peas - Majority (75 % - 80 %) of pods are brown.
Flax (including low linolenic acid varieties) - Majority (75 % - 80 %) of bolls are brown.
Lentils - Lowermost pods (bottom 15 %) are brown and seeds rattle.
Soybeans (including Glyphosate Tolerant Soybeans) - Stems are green to brown in colour; pod tissue is dry and brown in appearance; 80-90 % leaf drop.
Dry Beans - Stems are green to brown in colour; pods are mature (yellow to brown in colour); 80-90% leaf drop (original leaves).
Forages - Apply 3-7 days prior to last cut in the final year of the forage.

Resistance-Management Recommendations
For resistance management, TRAXION Herbicide is a Group 9 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to TRAXION Herbicide and other Group 9 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Other resistance mechanisms that are not linked to site of action, but specific for individual chemicals, such as enhanced metabolism, may also exist. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.
To delay herbicide resistance:
Where possible, rotate the use of TRAXION Herbicide or other Group 9 herbicides within a growing season (sequence) or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group when such use is permitted. To delay resistance, the less resistance-prone partner should control the target weed(s) as effectively as the more resistance-prone partner.
Herbicide use should be based on an integrated weed management program that includes scouting, historical information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and considers tillage (or other mechanical control methods), cultural (for example, higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application method and timing to favour the crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices.
Monitor weed populations after herbicide application for signs of resistance development (for example, only one weed species on the herbicide label not controlled). If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed production in the affected area if possible by an alternative herbicide from a different group. Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds to other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.
Have suspected resistant weed seeds tested by a qualified laboratory to confirm resistance and identify alternative herbicide options.
Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes.
