PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
BAYONET 2 will not harm the treated crop under normal growing conditions and if applied according to directions. Crop injury or soil residue may result from over application. Uneven application or improper soil incorporation of BAYONET 2, could result in erratic weed control or crop injury. Seedling disease, cold weather, deep planting, excessive moisture, high salt concentration or drought may weaken crop seedlings and increase the possibility of damage from BAYONET 2. Under
these conditions, delayed crop development or reduce yields may result. Where specific crop recommendations are not given, use the lower rate for coarser soils or soils with lower organic matter. For soils containing 10% or more organic matter do not use BAYONET 2. In Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming, after a spring application of BAYONET 2, sugarbeets, red beets or spinach should not be planted for 12 months or 14 months after fall application. Soil should be plowed to a depth of 12 inches prior to planting these crops to reduce the possibility of crop injury. If land has not been irrigated, do not plant any of these crops for 18 months after a spring application or 20 monthsafter a fall application of BAYONET 2.
In all other areas, sugarbeets, red beets and spinach should not be planted for 12 months after a spring application or 14 months after a fall application. Before planting sugarbeets, moldboard plow to a depth of 12 inches to reduce the possibility of crop injury. Proso millet, corn, sorghum (milo), oats and annual or perennial grass crops or grass mixtures should not be planted for 12 months after a spring application or 14 months after fall application in the following states: Arizona, California, Colorado,Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming after a spring application of BAYONET 2. Ifland has not been irrigated, these crops should not be planted for 18 months after a spring application or 20 months after a fall application. Moldboard plowing to depth of 12 inches before planting these crops will reduce the possibility of crop injury. In Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota proso millet, sorghum (milo), oats and annual or perennial grass crops or grass mixtures should not be planted for 18 months after a spring application or 21 months after a fall application of BAYONET 2.
In those areas of Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas where at least 20 inches of rain/irrigation (total) was used to produce the crop, sorghum or oats should not be planted for 12 months after a spring application or 14 months after a fall application of BAYONET 2.
Do not plant sorghum, proso millet or oats for 18 months after an application of BAYONET 2 if less than 20 inches of total water was used to produce the crop. Cool, wet weather conditions during the early stage of growth may increase the possibility of injury to sorghum.
Vegetable crops other than those listed on this label for preplant soil incorporated application of BAYONET 2 should not be planted within 5 months following the application of BAYONET 2 or other trifluralin products.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
Aerial/Ground Application
BAYONET 2 may be applied with ground or aerial broadcast application equipment. Apply only with equipment capable of accurate calibration and uniform application of herbicide granules. Once properly calibrated the granular distributor should be checked regularly to assure proper operating condition. Do not apply BAYONET 2 in narrow bands. Apply at the recommended rate for soil texture class to be treated.

INCORPORATION DIRECTIONS
General Directions
BAYONET 2 is a preemergence herbicide for control of many annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. Two incorporation passes are required. The first pass should occur within 24 hours after application. The second incorporation should be delayed 3 to 5 days after the first and be completed prior to planting in order to obtain the best results. A minimum delay of 7 days after the first incorporation is recommended for certain uses in small grains. The second incorporation pass should occurin a different direction than the first. Incorporate BAYONET 2 uniformly into the top 2 to 3 inches of the final seedbed. Set equipment so that the second incorporation pass is not deeper than the first as erratic weed control may result if untreated soil is moved to the surface during the second incorporation pass.

After Planting
For directions after planting check label under specific crop.

Bedded Culture
BAYONET 2 needs to be incorporated into the top 2 to 3 inches of the final seedbed for effective weed control.

Application Prior to Bedding
Apply BAYONET 2 prior to bedding and incorporate it with recommended equipment. The bedding operation serves as the second incorporation. Avoid removal of untreated soil from the seedbed before or during the planting operation. This would expose untreated soil, allowing weeds to germinate in the drill row.
