DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.

Restrictions
Do not apply to any crop suffering from stress as a result of drought, water-logging, low temperatures, pest or disease attack, nutrient or lime deficiency or other factor
reducing crop growth.
Do not apply to crops undersown with grass, clover or other legumes or any other broad-leaved crop.
Do not apply more than once to any cereal crop.
Do not apply within seven days of rolling the crop.
Contract agents should be consulted before using on crops grown for seed.
Due to the high level of activity of the herbicide, special care must be taken to avoid damage by drift onto broad-leaved plants outside the target area, or onto ponds, waterways or ditches. Thorough cleansing of equipment is also very important - see below.
Refer to ‘Compatibility’ for details on use of Inka SX with other ‘ALS inhibiting’ herbicides.

Soil and weather
Inka SX can be used on all soil types. Weed control may be reduced when conditions are very dry.

Volume and application
BEFORE USING INKA SX, SPRAYING EQUIPMENT MUST BE CLEAN AND FREE FROM CONTAMINATION WITH OTHER PESTICIDES. Application should be made in 200 litres of water per hectare using suitable ground equipment to give good spray cover of the weeds. Use a conventional field crop sprayer at a pressure of 2 - 3 bars and apply as a MEDIUM spray (as defined by BCPC). Care should be taken not to overlap spray swaths.

Mixing
Quarter fill the spray tank with clean water, start the agitation and add the required quantity of Inka SX directly to the tank without prior creaming. Continue agitation while topping up the tank and while spraying.

Crops
Inka SX can be used on all varieties of winter and spring wheat, barley, oats, rye and triticale.

Timing
Inka SX should be applied from the three-leaf stage up to and including the flag leaf ligule/collar just visible. Safety to crops of oats, rye and triticale treated before four tillers (GS24) has not been assessed.

Dose
Apply Inka SX at 60 g/ha.

Following Crops
Only cereals, field beans or oilseed rape may be sown in the same calendar year as harvest of a cereal crop treated with Inka SX. In the event of a crop failure for any reason, sow only a cereal crop within three months of application of Inka SX. Before sowing, soil should be ploughed and cultivated to a depth of at least 15cm. After three months field beans and oilseed rape may also be sown.
