RESTRICTIONS
Do not apply to cereal crops undersown or due to be undersown with clover or alfalfa.
Do not roll or harrow within one week of spraying.
Do not spray crops under stress, suffering drought, waterlogged, grazed (cereals), lacking nutrients or if the soil is compacted.
Do not spray if frost is expected. If the leaves are wet or covered with ice, run off may occur.
WHEAT, BARLEY, OATS, RYE, TRIRICALE
Weeds: Charlock, Cleavers, Field forget-me-not, Shepherd’s Purse.
Rate: 40g product per hectare.
Critical comments: Maximum number of applications 1 per crop. Latest time of application: from the two-leaf stage of the crop up to and including first awns visible (GS49) but before first spikelet of inflorescence just visible (GS51).
LINSEED
Weeds: Charlock, Cleavers, Field forget-me-not, Shepherd’s Purse.
Rate: 40g product per hectare.
Critical comments: Maximum number of applications 1 per crop. Latest time of application: from the first pair of leaves unfolded up to before flower buds visible.
GRASSLAND
Weeds: Charlock, Cleavers, Field forget-me-not, Shepherd’s Purse.
Rate: 40g - 60g product per hectare.
Critical comments: Maximum number of applications 1 per season. Latest time of application: at least 21 days before harvest for hay or silage. Keep livestock out of treated area for at least 7 days after spraying.
Broadcast crops should be sprayed post-emergence after the plants have a well established root system and all other conditions on the label and leaflet are met.
Eagle is rainfast after one hour.
WEEDS CONTROLLED
For optimum results, apply Eagle during warm weather, when the soil is moist and the weeds actively growing. Dry conditions resulting in moisture stress may reduce effectiveness. Eagle can be used on all soil types.
Cereals
Eagle controls cleavers from emergence through to flower bud.
If present at application, charlock (up to flower bud), shepherd’s-purse (up to flower bud) and field forget-me-not (up to 6 leaves) will also be controlled.
Kill of weeds with Eagle is slow, particularly under cool, dry conditions.
CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION
All commercially available varieties of: winter wheat, winter barley, spring wheat, spring barley, durum wheat, oats, rye, triticale and established grassland, including swards with white clover.
Apply Eagle from the two-leaf stage of the cereal crop up to and including first awns visible (Gs 49).
Cereals
Apply in spring when the weeds are actively growing.
Rate of Use:
40g per hectare.
Method of application:
Ground sprayer
Volume:
Apply in 112-200 litres of water per hectare as a fine or medium spray
Use up to 400 litres of water per hectare where crops are thick or weeds dense.
Number of treatments:
1 per crop.
Latest time of application:
Up to and including first awns visible (Gs 49) but before first spikelet of inflorescence just visible (Gs 51).
For optimal results, use application techniques which ensure good weed coverage and crop penetration.
Avoid damage by drift on to broad leaf plants outside the target area or on to ponds, waterways or ditches.
MIXING
Half fill the spray tank with clean water, start agitation and add the required quantity of
Eagle directly to the tank.
Top up the tank to the required volume.
Continue agitation whilst spraying.
When tank-mixing, always add Eagle to the spray tank first, and fully disperse before adding other products. Do not allow Eagle granules to come into contact with the undiluted concentrate of any other products.
