CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION

Always spray when the crop is actively growing.
WINTER WHEAT Application Rate: 1.4 to 3.3 L/ha (see weed susceptibility table)
Maximum total dose: 3.3 L/ha
Apply in the spring from the leaf sheath erect stage to before third node detectable (GS33).
Application under very hot conditions can cause ear damage if the crop comes under stress after application. All varieties of winter wheat may be treated. Apply in 200 - 400 L water/ha.
SPRING WHEAT AND WINTER AND SPRING BARLEY, OATS AND RYE.
Application Rate: 1.4 to 3.3 L/ha (see weed susceptibility table) Max total dose: 3.3 L/ha For all cereals above apply in the spring before 1st node detectable stages (GS 31).
- WINTER BARLEY, OATS AND RYE: Spray in the spring from the leaf sheath erect stage (GS 30).
- SPRING WHEAT, BARLEY AND RYE: Spray after the crop has developed five fully expanded leaves (GS 15).
- SPRING OATS: Spray after the crop has developed one fully expanded leaf (GS 11).
Application under very hot conditions at later timings can cause ear damage if the crop comes under stress after application. Barley is particularly subject to malformation and particular attention must be paid to the correct growth stage if this crop is intended for malting. All varieties of spring wheat, winter and spring barley, oats and rye may be treated. Apply in 200 - 400 L water/ha.
UNDERSOWN CEREALS Do not apply to cereals undersown with lucerne, peas or safoin.
Red Clover Application rate: 1.4 L product/ha
Maximum total dose: 1.4 L product/ha
Application should be made when the red clover has at least two trifoliate leaves (GS 12), and the cereal crop is at the correct growth stage, as listed above. Only apply if the weeds canopy is dense and covers most of the clover seedlings. Some damage to red clover must be expected, but this will normally be out-grown. Do not apply if white clover is present.
GRASSES Application rate: 2.7 L product/ha
Maximum total dose: 2.7 L product/ha
Application should be made when the grasses have begun to tiller, and the cereal crop is at the correct growth stage, as listed above. Apply in 200 - 400 L water/ha.

MIXING AND SPRAYING Half-fill the tank with clean water and add the required quantity of Agroxone 50, and add the remainder of the clean water with gently agitation which should continue until the contents are thoroughly mixed. Triple rinse containers with water and add washing to the spray tank.

TANK CLEANING Wash Equipment thoroughly immediately after use. Rinse with water three times, drain and allow to dry. Traces of herbicide left in the sprayer may damage susceptible crops if these are subsequently sprayed using the same equipment.

COMPATIBILITY Agroxone 50 can be tank-mixed with other pesticides, please consult your distributor.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT When herbicides with the same mode of action are used repeatedly over several years in the same field, selection of resistant biotypes can take place. These can propagate and may become dominating. A weed species is considered to be resistant to a herbicide if it survives a correctly applied treatment at the recommended dose. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. This should include integrating herbicides with a programme of cultural control measures.
