ANY USE OF THIS PRODUCT IN AN AREA WHERE USE IS PROHIBITED IS A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW. Before using this product, you must consult the Atrazine
Watershed Information Center (AWIC) to determine whether the use of this product is prohibited in your watershed. AWIC can be assessed through www.atrazine-watershed info or 1-866-365-3014. If use of this product is prohibited in your watershed, you may return unopened product to your point of purchase or contact Loveland Products, Inc. for a refund.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

GENERAL INFORMATION
For use only on field corn, production seed corn, silage corn, sweet corn and popcorn.
Corn in this label refers to: field corn, production seed corn, silage corn, sweet corn and popcorn.
Cadence* Lite Atz herbicide is a unique combination of the herbicides acetochlor and atrazine plus the antidote or safener, dichlormid. While the acetochlor and atrazine provide weed control, the dichlormid safens corn against herbicide injury. Cadence* Lite Atz may be applied to the surface or incorporated into the top 1-2 inch layer of soil. It is recommended for control alone, or in tank mix combinations, for the weeds listed in the "Target Weeds" section of these use directions. Cadence* Lite Atz controls weeds by interfering with normal germination and seedling development. Cadence* Lite Atz does not control established or germinated weeds present at application.

USE RESTRICTIONS
• This product may not be mixed or loaded within 50 ft. of intermittent streams and rivers, natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. This product may not be applied by ground within 66 feet of the points where field surface water runoff enters perennial or intermittent streams and rivers or within 200 feet around natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. If this product is applied to highly erodible land, the 66-foot buffer or setback from runoff entry points must be planted to crop, seeded with grass or other suitable crop.
• Tile-Outletted Fields Containing Standpipes
To ensure protection of surface water from runoff through standpipes with tile-outlets in terraced fields, one of the following restrictions must be used in applying this vproduct to tile-outletted fields containing standpipes:
1. Do not apply this product within 66 feet of standpipes in tile-outletted terraced fields.
2. Apply this product to the entire tile-outletted field and immediately incorporate it to
a depth of 2-3 inches in the entire field.
3. Apply this product to the entire tile-outletted terraced field under a no-till practice only when high crop residue management practices are used. High crop residue management is described as a crop management practice where little or no crop residue is removed from the field during or after crop harvest.
• Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
• Do not use flood irrigation to apply or incorporate this product.

• Product must be used in a manner that will prevent back siphoning in wells, spills or improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixtures or rinsates.
• Do not apply under conditions that favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing this product to non-target areas. To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion:
• Avoid treating powdery dry or light sandy soils when conditions are favorable for wind erosion. Under these conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by rain fall or irrigation.
• Do not apply to impervious substrates such as paved or highly compacted surfaces or frozen or snow covered soils.
• Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat non-target crops unless at least ½ inch of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation.
• Aerial Application: Do not apply this product using aerial application equipment.
• Do not apply when wind conditions favor drift to non-target sites. To minimize spray drift to non-target areas:
• Use low-pressure application equipment capable of producing a large droplet spray.
• Do not use nozzles that produce a fine droplet spray.
• Minimize drift by using sufficient spray volume to ensure adequate coverage with large droplet size sprays.
• Keep ground-driven spray boom as low as possible above the target surface.
• Make application when the wind velocity favors on-target product deposition (approximately 3 to 10 mph). Do not apply when wind velocity exceeds 15 mph.
Avoid application when gusts approach 15 mph.
• Low humidity and high temperatures increase the likelihood of spray drift to sensitive vareas. Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/or high temperatures. Do not apply during inversion conditions.
• Maximum Application Rates: Maximum broadcast application rates for corn must be as follows:
• If no atrazine was applied prior to corn emergence, apply a maximum of 2 pounds active ingredient per acre broadcast. If postemergence treatment is required following an earlier herbicide application, the total atrazine applied may not exceed 2.5 pounds active ingredient per acre per calendar year.
• Apply a maximum of 2.0 pounds active ingredient per acre as a single preemergence application is made on soils that are not highly erodible or on highly erodible soil if at least 30% of the soil is covered with plant residues, or
• Apply a maximum of 1.6 pounds active ingredient per acre as a single preemergence application on highly erodible soils if less than 30% of the soil is covered with plant residues; or 2.0 pounds active ingredient per acre if only vapplied postemergence.
• Preharvest Interval: Do not apply Cadence* Lite Atz within 60 days of harvest for forage uses.
• Postemergence applications of atrazine to corn must be made before the crop reaches 12 inches in height.

GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS
• Failure to strictly follow label directions may result in exceeding the maximum annual atrazine use rates as stipulated by the Environmental Protection Agency.
• Note: This product contains atrazine and thus may not control weeds that are known or suspected to be triazine resistant. Following many years of continuous use of atrazine and chemically related products, biotypes of some of the weeds listed on this label have been reported which cannot be effectively controlled by atrazine and related herbicides. Where this is known or suspected and weeds controlled by atrazine are expected to be present along with resistant biotypes, it is recommended that atrazine be used in combinations or in sequence with other registered herbicides which are not triazines. If only resistant biotypes are expected to be present, use a registered non-triazine herbicide.
• Do not use Cadence* Lite Atz on any crop other than field corn, production seed corn, silage corn, sweet corn and popcorn.
• Cadence* Lite Atz should not be used on corn seed stock such as Breeders, Foundation, or Increase.
• Do not contaminate irrigation water used for crops other than corn or water used for domestic purposes.
• Do not apply Cadence* Lite Atz before pre-irrigation in irrigated areas.
• Do not allow Cadence* Lite Atz to contaminate feed or food.
• Cadence* Lite Atz should not be stored near seeds, fertilizers, or foodstuffs.
• All containers of Cadence* Lite Atz should be kept tightly closed when not in use.
• Applied according to directions and under normal growing conditions, Cadence* Lite Atz will not harm the treated crop. During germination and early stages of growth, extended periods of unusually cold and wet or hot and dry weather, insect or plant disease attack, carryover pesticide residues, the use of certain soil applied systemic insecticides, improperly placed fertilizers or soil insecticides may create abnormal conditions that weaken crop seedlings. Cadence* Lite Atz used under these abnormal conditions could result in crop injury
