PRODUCT INFORMATION
ACCURATE EXTRA Herbicide is a water dispersible granule that is used for selective postemergence weed control in wheat (including durum), barley, triticale and fallow. The best control is obtained when ACCURATE EXTRA is applied to young, actively growing weeds. The degree and duration of control may depend on the following factors:
• weed spectrum and infestation intensity
• weed size at application
• environmental condition at and following treatment.
ACCURATE EXTRA is non-corrosive, non-flammable, non-volatile, and does not freeze. ACCURATE EXTRA should be mixed with water and applied as a uniform broadcast spray (see Tank Mixtures and Mixing Instructions sections for use with Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizer Solutions). Environmental Conditions and Biological Activity ACCURATE EXTRA is absorbed through the roots and foliage of plants, rapidly inhibiting the growth of susceptible weeds. One to three weeks after postemergence application to weeds (2 to 5 weeks for wild garlic), leaves of susceptible plants appear chlorotic, and the growing point subsequently dies. In warm, moist conditions, the expression of herbicide symptoms is accelerated; in cold, dry conditions, expression of herbicide symptoms is delayed.
ACCURATE EXTRA will provide up to 4 to 6 weeks of residual weed control. Susceptible weeds may germinate and emerge a few days after postemergence applications, but growth then ceases and leaves become chlorotic 3-5 days after emergence. Death of leaf tissue and growing point will follow in some species, while others will remain green but stunted and noncompetitive.
ACCURATE EXTRA provides the best control of weeds in vigorously growing crops that shade competitive weeds. Weed control in areas of thin crop stand or seeding skips may not provide satisfactory control. However, a crop canopy that is too dense at application can intercept spray and reduce weed control.
The herbicidal action of ACCURATE EXTRA may be less effective on weeds stressed from adverse environmental conditions (such as extreme temperatures or moisture), abnormal soil conditions, or cultural practices. In addition, weeds hardened-off by drought stress are less susceptible to ACCURATE EXTRA.
PRODUCT MEASUREMENT
ACCURATE EXTRA is measured using the ACCURATE EXTRA volumetric measuring cylinder. The degree of accuracy of this cylinder varies by + 7.5%. For more precise measurement, use scales calibrated in ounces.
