DIRECTIONS FOR USE
CROPS AND APPLICATION TIMING
VIOS G3 IS FOR POST-EMERGENCE USE IN TANK-MIX COMBINATION WITH LIBERTY OR GLYPHOSATE HERBICIDES FOR USE IN LIBERTY LINK OR GLYPHOSATE TOLERANT CORN. This tank-mix combination MUST be applied postemergence to field corn when at the indicated growth stages.

APPLICATION RATE, TANK-MIXTURES AND WEEDS CONTROLLED
VIOS G3 provides residual control of broadleaf and grass weed species when tank-mixed with LIBERTY or a labelled glyphosate herbicide. Consult the appropriate label of the tank mix partner for further instructions regarding directions for use, restrictions, precautions and additional weeds not specified on this label. Always observe the largest (most restrictive) buffer zone of the products involved in the tank mixture.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Spray drift may result in injury to non target crops or vegetation. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.
To avoid spray drift, do not apply when wind speed is greater than 15 km/h or during periods of temperature inversions. Do not apply when weather conditions, wind speed or wind direction may cause spray drift to non-target areas.
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and weed control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but may not prevent spray drift if unfavorable environmental conditions exists (e.g. wind direction toward sensitive areas or wind speed greater than 15 km/h).
To minimize risk of spray drift, select nozzles and pressures that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets as indicated in nozzle manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572. Nozzles that deliver COARSE spray droplets may be used to further reduce spray drift potential, however, application volume per hectare (L of water per hectare) should be increased to maintain coverage and weed control.
Only apply this product when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is 15 km/h or less and is blowing away from sensitive areas).
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) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
DO NOT apply by air.

ROTATIONAL CROPS
Only the following crops have been field tested to indicate they may be safely planted at the prescribed interval after an application of VIOS G3. To avoid the possibility of injury to subsequent crops after an application of the recommended rate of VIOS G3, follow the crops and replanting interval which appear on this label, and if tank mixing on the label of the tank mix partner, and always observe the most restrictive replanting interval.

Immediate plant back (In the event that corn crop treated with VIOS G3 is lost due to environmental conditions and re-seeding is required, field corn may be reseeded immediately):

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
VIOS G3 must be applied with properly calibrated and clean sprayer equipment. VIOS G3 is specially formulated to mix readily in water. Prior to adding VIOS G3 to the spray tank, ensure that the spray tank is thoroughly clean.
1. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with clean water and begin agitation or bypass.
2. Add the appropriate rate of VIOS G3, as specified under Section 8, directly to the spray tank. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application.
3. Add the tank mix product next.
4. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
5. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application of VIOS G3 as the product may settle if left standing without agitation. If the spray solution is allowed to stand for one hour or more, re-agitate the spray solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before application.
Apply VIOS G3 spray mixtures within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
