INSTRUCTIONS AND INFORMATION
PRODUCT INFORMATION
ARGOS HERBICIDE is a selective systemic preemergence and postemergence herbicide for the contact and residual control of broadleaf weeds in listed crops. When used preemergence, weeds absorb the  product through the soil during emergence. Preemergence activity of ARGOS HERBICIDE may be reduced in dry conditions following application. If adequate moisture (0.25 inches) is not received within 7-10 days after a preemergence application, where appropriate, rotary hoeing is suggested to activate the herbicide. When used postemergence, susceptible weeds absorb the herbicide through the treated foliage and cease growth shortly after application. Complete death of the weeds may take up to 2 weeks. The product is absorbed through the soil and/or by the foliage of emerged weeds.
ARGOS HERBICIDE is not effective for the control of many grass weeds. Preemergence grass herbicides or postemergence grass herbicides may be tank mixed with ARGOS HERBICIDE to broaden the spectrum of weed control in corn (see appropriate section of label for this information). ARGOS HERBICIDE may be applied postemergence following a preemergence grass herbicide application. ARGOS HERBICIDE may also be used in combination with a burndown herbicide, prior to planting, to provide added burndown and residual weed control in field corn, seed corn, yellow popcorn, and sweet corn. Observe all instructions, crop restrictions, mixing directions, application precautions, replanting directions, rotational crop guidelines and other label information of each product when tank mixing with ARGOS HERBICIDE. 

USE PRECAUTIONS
Weed control may be reduced or delayed if weeds are not actively growing. Treating weeds under stress may result in decreased control. Weed growth may be reduced due to numerous stress factors including: drought, heat, lack of fertility, flooding, or prolonged cool temperatures. Weed escapes or regrowth may occur when application is made under prolonged stress conditions. Optimum weed control will be obtained if an application of ARGOS HERBICIDE is made following label directions when weeds are actively growing.
Severe corn injury resulting in yield loss may occur if:
x ARGOS HERBICIDE is applied postemergence to corn that was treated with Counter or Lorsban.
x ARGOS HERBICIDE is applied foliar postemergence to corn in a tank mix with any organophosphate or carbamate insecticide.
x Any organophosphate or carbamate insecticide is applied foliar postemergence within 7 days before or 7 days after ARGOS HERBICIDE application.
x ARGOS HERBICIDE may be applied with pyrethroid type insecticides (e.g., Warrior).

USE RESTRICTIONS
• DO NOT cultivate corn within 7 days before or after an ARGOS HERBICIDE application as weed control from the ARGOS HERBICIDE application may be reduced.
• DO NOT apply ARGOS HERBICIDE to white popcorn or ornamental (Indian) corn.
• DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system unless specified otherwise under the specific crop section on the label.
• DO NOT apply this product with suspension fertilizers as the carrier.
• DO NOT apply ARGOS HERBICIDE postemergence in a tank mix with emulsifiable concentrate grass herbicides, unless specifically addressed under one of the tank mix sections of this label, or injury may occur.
• DO NOT use aerial application to apply ARGOS HERBICIDE unless specified otherwise under the specific crop section on the label.
