Cadre herbicide controls over 34 grasses and broadleaf weeds, including nutsedge, pigweed and morningglory. Add in excellent crop safety and a wide window of application, and it is no wonder peanut growers have relied upon Cadre for more than 10 years.

How Cadre Herbicide Works
Growers depend on Cadre herbicide for the peanut industry's most complete weed control. No herbicide provides better control of nutsedge, pigweed and morningglory as well as 30 more grasses and broadleaf weeds. Cadre has a wide window of application along with soil and foliar activity and spectrum. Combine all this with excellent crop safety, and you have every reason to look forward to more peanuts.

Directions For Use
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
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.
This labeling must be in the possession of the user at the time of pesticide application.
Observe all cautions and limitations on this label and on the labels of products used in combination with Cadre  herbicide. DO NOT use Cadre other than in accordance with the instructions set forth on this label; this may help prevent crop response. Keep containers closed to avoid spills and contamination.
DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system. DO NOT graze or feed treated peanut hay to livestock.
DO NOT apply more than 0.063 lb ai/A imazapic (4.0 fluid ozs/A of Cadre ) per application or per use season.
Preharvest Interval: There must be an interval of at least 90 days between an application of Cadre and peanut harvest.

SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT apply if wind conditions, temperature inversion conditions, or other conditions may cause drift onto adjacent areas or sensitive crops. Sensitive crops include, but are not limited to, leafy vegetables and cotton.
DO NOT apply if rainfall is threatening. Rainfall within 3 hours after Cadre application may reduce weed control.

Ground Application
Uniformly apply with properly calibrated ground equipment in 10 or more gallons of water per acre. A spray pressure of 20 to 40 psi is recommended.
To ensure proper spray coverage, the sprayer must be calibrated to deliver the recommended spray volume and pressure and the spray boom height adjusted to ensure proper coverage of weed foliage (according to the manufacturer’s recommendation). Spray nozzle tips should be selected to provide an even and thorough distribution of the spray mixture. The use of boomless or flood type nozzles is not recommended and may result in decreased weed control.
DO NOT apply by helicopter, airplane, or any other aerial equipment. Avoid overlaps when spraying. 

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Cadre  herbicide is active on many grass weeds, but a soil-active grass herbicide such as Prowl herbicide or SonalanTM herbicide should be applied according to label directions before Cadre  use.
Apply Cadre at a rate of 4.0 ounces per acre (0.063 lb ai/A) plus an approved spray adjuvant (refer to the SPRAY ADJUVANTS section of this label) early postemergence to control broadleaf and grass weeds in peanuts. Refer to the WEEDS CONTROLLED chart below for weed species controlled.

Critical comments:  
Cadrewill control many grass weeds which escape from the application of a soil-applied grass herbicide. However, Cadre should be used as a component of a grass weed control program and following the application of a soilapplied grass herbicide. Grass weeds must be present at the time of application to obtain control. **For control of rhizome johnsongrass, weeds must be at least 8 to 10 inches tall at application. Smaller weeds DO NOT  generally have enough leaf surface area to take up enough Cadre for complete control.

MANAGING OFF-TARGET MOVEMENT 
Refer to the SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS section of this label for the specific application directions for Cadre .
Spray Drift: Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment-related and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions.
Spray drift from applying this product may result in damage to sensitive plants adjacent to the treatment area. Only apply this product when the potential for drift to these and other adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, or non-target crops) is minimal. DO NOT apply when the following conditions exist that increase the likelihood of spray drift from intended targets: high or gusty winds, high temperatures, low humidity, temperature inversions.
To minimize spray drift, the applicator must be familiar with and take into account the following drift reduction advisory information. Additional information may be available from state enforcement agencies or the Cooperative Extension on the application of this product.
The best drift management strategy and most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind; Temperature and Humidity; and Temperature Inversions).

Controlling droplet size:
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets.
Pressure - DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is recommended practice. Significant deflection from the horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. 
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift. DO NOT use nozzles producing a mist droplet spray.

Application Height: Making applications at the lowest possible height (ground driven spray boom) that is safe and practical reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind.
Swath Adjustment: When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the upwind and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the application equipment upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller droplets, etc.).
Wind: Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 3 to 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type, determine drift potential at any given speed. Application must be avoided below 3 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.
Temperature and Humidity: When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry.
Temperature Inversions: Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud, which can move in unpredictable directions due to the light, variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light-to-no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often  con tinue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
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 rainfall or irrigation.
Ground Application (Broadcast): Use 5 or more gallons of water per acre (the maximum recommended spray volume for Cadre herbicide is 10 gallons per acre). The actual minimum spray volume per acre is determined by the spray equipment used. Use adequate spray volume to provide accurate and uniform distribution of spray particles over the treated area and to avoid spray drift.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Fill the spray tank 1/2 to 3/4 full with clean water. Use a calibrated measuring device to measure the required amount and add the required amount of Cadre to the spray tank while agitating. Fill the remainder of the tank with water.
Add a nonionic surfactant, organosilicate adjuvant or crop oil concentrate to the spray tank. Maintain agitation while spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture. An antifoaming agent may be added to the tank if needed.
When tank mixing Cadre with recommended herbicides, add wettable powders, dispersible granules or other dry formulations first, then ECs, then Cadre , and then an adjuvant.
To avoid injury to sensitive crops, spray equipment used for Cadre applications must be drained and thoroughly cleaned with water before applying other products or spraying other crops.

SPRAY ADJUVANTS
Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas (except West Texas), and Virginia Always include a nonionic surfactant or crop oil concentrate with Cadre herbicide applications. Use a nonionic surfactant with at least 80% active ingredient at one quart of surfactant for each 100 gallons of spray solution. If using crop oil concentrate, add one quart per acre. Under adverse application conditions (dry weather, larger weeds), the use of a crop oil concentrate at one quart per acre, and fertilizer (spray grade ammonium sulfate at 2.5 lbs per acre or liquid fertilizer at 1 to 2 quarts per acre) is recommended.
New Mexico, Oklahoma, and West Texas Only Always include either a crop oil concentrate, or methylated seed oil concentrate or blends of these containing an organo silicate-based surfactant at 1 quart per acre. DO NOT use a nonionic surfactant as an adjuvant. Maintain agitation while spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture.

CULTIVATION
The control of difficult weeds (such as Florida beggarweed) and weeds treated under dry conditions is often greatly enhanced by a timely cultivation. Cultivation should be done at least 14 days after Cadre application.
DO NOTcultivate prior to 14 days after Cadre application since this timing is too early to take full advantage of the weed control activity offered by Cadre . In addition, cultivations should be shallow to avoid excessive movement of treated soil and to avoid exposing weed seed buried deep within the soil.

HERBICIDE COMBINATIONS
Cadre  may be tank mixed with other herbicides if the practice is not prohibited by the label of the tank mix partner. When Cadre is tank mixed with another herbicide, read each label carefully to determine use rates, methods of application, proper timing, weeds controlled, restrictions and precautions. Always use in accordance with the more restrictive label. No labeled use rate may be exceeded. DO NOT mix Cadre with any product whose label prohibits tank mixes.
Using Gramoxone or Classic herbicide in tank mixtures with Cadre  may result in increased peanut injury.
Using Basagran herbicide in tank mixtures with Cadre may result in reduced broadleaf weed control.
Using a postemergence grass control herbicide or fungicide in tank mixtures with Cadre may result in reduced weed control.
It is not recommended to use Cadre in combination with or following a Pursuit herbicide or StrongarmTM herbicide application due to the potential for herbicide resistance development and uncertainty regarding crop response.
