FOR SALE FOR USE IN THE PRAIRIE PROVINCES AND THE PEACE RIVER REGION OF BRITISH COLUMBIA ON SPRING WHEAT (INCLUDING DURUM), WINTER WHEAT, SPRING BARLEY AND CHEMFALLOW

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - READ BEFORE USING
Injury to or loss of desirable trees, shrubs, flowers, vegetables, fruits or other 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, tennis courts, 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 crops.
DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
Do not apply in high winds.
Carefully observe sprayer clean-up instructions, as spray tank residue may damage crops other than spring wheat or spring barley.
DO NOT APPLY TRITON BROADLEAF WITH A CARRIER OTHER THAN WATER OR ANY ADDITIVE OTHER THAN THOSE INDICATED ON THIS LABEL. Other carriers may accelerate breakdown of this product and reduce its effectiveness.
DO NOT permit lactating dairy animals to graze fields within 7 days after application.
DO NOT harvest forage or cut hay within 30 days after application.
Withdraw meat animals from treated fields at least 3 days before slaughter.
Preharvest Interval (PHI): Allow at least 30 days between application and harvest.

SPRAY DRIFT PRECAUTIONS
TRITON BROADLEAF may cause injury to desirable trees and plants, particularly flowers, fruit trees, grapes, ornamentals, peas, potatoes, tomatoes, and other broadleaf plants, especially in their developmental and growing stage. Follow these precautions when spraying in the vicinity of sensitive crops:
1. Avoid spraying when winds are towards sensitive crops. Leave an adequate buffer zone between treatment areas and sensitive plants.
2. Use coarse sprays since they are less likely to drift than fine sprays. Select nozzles which minimize amounts of fine spray particles. Keep spray pressure below 150 kPa and the spray volume above 220 L/ha unless otherwise required by the nozzle manufacturer.
3. Do not spray when the temperature is expected to exceed 30 C.
4. Avoid spraying under conditions of high humidity or fog.
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 Agriculture Engineers (ASAE) coarse classification (according to the appropriate buffer zone table). Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop of ground.

GENERAL INFORMATION
TRITON BROADLEAF provides control of certain broad-leaved weeds in cereal crops and chemfallow, including Group 2 resistant kochia. TRITON BROADLEAF contains two active ingredients formulated as dry flowable or water soluble granules. It is non-corrosive, non-flammable and does not freeze. Should product be exposed to freezing temperatures, warm to room temperature prior to use.
Warm, moist growing conditions promote active weed growth and enhance the activity of TRITON BROADLEAF by allowing maximum foliar uptake and contact activity. Weeds hardened off by environmental stress such as cold weather, drought stress or excessive heat may not be adequately controlled or suppressed, and regrowth may occur. TRITON BROADLEAF may only be applied using ground spray equipment. For best results, ensure thorough spray coverage of target weeds.
TRITON BROADLEAF rapidly stops growth of susceptible weeds. However, typical symptoms (discoloration) of dying weeds may not be noticeable for 1 to 3 weeks after application, depending on growing conditions and weed susceptibility. Degree of control and duration of effect depend on weed sensitivity, weed size, spray coverage and growing conditions. Activity of the herbicide mixture may be delayed by cold, dry conditions after application.

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. 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 2/3 full of clean water.
3. With the agitator running, add the required amount of TRITON BROADLEAF. Continue to agitate for a minimum of 5 minutes to ensure that TRITON BROADLEAF is completely dissolved.
4. Make sure there are no undissolved granules, and then add the required amount of the tank mix partner. If the tank mix partner is an Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC), reduce agitation to avoid inducing an invert emulsion.
5. Specific Tank Mix Instructions:
TRITON BROADLEAF + 2,4-D Ester: add 2,4-D Ester last.
TRITON BROADLEAF + 2,4-D Ester + PUMA 120 SUPER: add the required amount of PUMA 120 SUPER last.
TRITON BROADLEAF + 2,4-D Ester + Everest  70 WDG Herbicide or Everest Solupak 70: Ensure that TRITON BROADLEAF is completely dissolved. Add Everest Solupak 70 DF or Everest 70 WDG while continuing agitation until these products are completely mixed. Reduce agitation, and add 2,4-D Ester.
6. Add the rest of the water.
7. If required for the tank mixture, add the appropriate adjuvant. If an antifoam agent is required, add last.
8. For repeat tank loads, reduce the material remaining in the tank to 10% of the original volume or less before proceeding with step 1, because remaining chemicals may prevent TRITON BROADLEAF granules from completely dissolving or dispersing. If this is not possible, pre-slurry TRITON BROADLEAF in a small amount (5-10 L) of water before adding to the tank.
Refer to the tank mix sections of this booklet for mixing order and other mixing instructions. 

REPLANTING TO OTHER CROPS
Any crop can be seeded in the year following application.
