DIRECTIONS FOR USE

IMPORTANT: this information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be carefully read in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.
RESTRICTIONS. Do not apply to crops under stress or to crops suffering from waterlogging, pest attack, disease, frost or the effects of high diurnal temperature changes. Transient yellowing can occur although crops fully recover. For cereals, seed must be covered by 3cm of soil and for best results apply to a firm, moist seedbed free of clods. DO NOT sow field beans or broad beans within 12 months of application.

Weed Resistance
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild-oats, and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to a range of herbicides which may lead to poor control from one or more product or mode of action. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from your distributor, crop adviser or product manufacturer. CLAYTON HEED should only be used for control of herbicide resistant strains of annual grasses as part of an appropriate management strategy, including sequences with herbicides of alternative modes of action and the use of cultural techniques.

CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Winter Cereals
CLAYTON HEED applied pre-emergence may infrequently slow crop emergence. This effect is transient and has been demonstrated not to adversely affect yield.
Potatoes
For control of a wider spectrum of weeds use CLAYTON HEED in mixture with approved formulations of products containing the active ingredient metribuzin, only as a pre-emergence application. Please consult company literature for specific product and best use guidelines. Always observe full label restrictions for any tank mix partner.

Winter Cereals
CLAYTON HEED can either be used at pre-emergence of the crop (5 L/ha) or at post-emergence of the crop up to GS 21 (3 L/ha). One application per crop.

Early and Maincrop Potatoes
CLAYTON HEED may be applied pre-emergence or at emergence of the crop (soil rising over emerging potato shoots). Complete ridge formation before application of CLAYTON HEED and do not disturb treated soil after application.
