CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Winter Wheat and Triticale
Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer at a rate of 0.333 kg/ha or at 0.2 kg/ha (according to the growth stage of the target weed(s)). Apply in 200–300 L/ha as a FINE to MEDIUM spray (BCPC category). Use application techniques which ensure good weed coverage and crop penetration.
Spray overlaps in the treated cereal crop should be avoided in order to reduce the risk of localised adverse effects on following crops of winter oilseed rape. Always use
Proverb in mixture with authorised adjuvant biopower (ADJ: 0617) at a rate of 1 L/ha.
Only one application of Proverb should be made to the crop.
For use on all varieties of winter wheat and triticale. Apply from the main shoot and 1 tiller stage (GS 21) of the crop up to second node detectable (GS 32).
This product is authorised in winter sown crops. Growers choosing to apply this product to winter sown spring varieties should note that crop safety has not been demonstrated in spring varieties. As a result application of this product to winter sown spring varieties is done so at the growers own commercial risk (and this also applies to unclassified varieties).

MIXING
Add the recommended quantity of Proverb to the spray tank half-filled with the required quantity of clean water. Add the remainder of the water with the sprayer agitation system in operation. Maintain agitation during mixing and loading and until spraying is complete. Do not leave the sprayer standing with chemical in it.
To avoid subsequent damage to crops other than winter wheat it is important that the spray tank, boom, hoses, filters and nozzles are thoroughly washed out to remove all traces of Proverb immediately after spraying using a proprietary sprayer cleaner (e.g. All Clear Extra®) according to the label instructions for that product.
