PRODUCT INFORMATION
BOMBARD is a preemergence and post-emergence herbicide for the control of watergrass, barnyardgrass (Echinochloa spp.) and
sprangletop (Leptochloa fascicularis). BOMBARD controls weeds through foliar and root uptake as a chlorophyl-production inhibitor.
BOMBARD is formulated as a 5% granule. DO NOT apply under conditions that would allow BOMBARD to come into contact with
adjacent crops other than rice by drift as injury may occur.

SPECIAL USE RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
1. Apply this product to rice only as specified on this label. Do not apply to any other crop or site.
2. Direct application to ditches used to transport irrigation water is prohibited.
3. Do not apply more than 0.6 lb A.I. per acre (12 lbs. per acre) of BOMBARD per growing season.
4. Pre-harvest interval: Do not apply later than 120 days before harvesting rice.
5. Do not drain fields for a minimum of 14 days after application, unless the water is contained within a tailwater recovery system, or other system appropriate for preventing discharge from rice fields.
6. Applications of BOMBARD to fields that have been terraced or precision leveled with deep cuts may result in rice crop injury including stand loss. This precaution does not apply to normal maintenance leveling.
7. Do not apply where runoff or irrigation water may flow directly onto agricultural land other than rice fields.
8. This product is not intended for use in manufacturing or reformulation.
9. Do not make applications of BOMBARD within 50 feet of any sensitive crops.
10. Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
11. Do not fish or commercially grow fish, shellfish or crustaceans on treated acres during the year of treatment.
12. Consult UC Agricultural Extension Specialist or Country Farm Advisors before applying BOMBARD to newly developed rice varieties.
13. If temperature is in excess of 98°F for prolonged periods of time, (3 to 4 days), bleaching of rice and stand loss may occur.
14. Do not overlap or double apply ends of fields.
15. Maintain a static water flood with no exposed soil for a minimum of 5 days after a post-flood application of BOMBARD.
16. Lowering of water to allow exposed soil during the first 14 days following the BOMBARD application can cause bleaching of rice, possibly resulting in rice stand loss.
17. Do not apply sequential applications of other herbicides if rice is bleached or under stress from the use of BOMBARD.
18. Do not apply BOMBARD to stressed rice.
19. To facility green-up of bleached rice fields, fields should receive a rapid flush of fresh water. Do not allow exposed soil in bleached fields.
20. For proper water circulation, functional water control devices at each end of each levee within a field are recommended.
