GENERAL INFORMATION
Product Description:
This product is a postemergent, systemic herbicide with no soil residual activity. It is generally nonselective and gives broad spectrum control of many annual weeds, perennial weeds, woody brush and trees. It is formulated as a water-soluble liquid. It may be applied through most standard industrial or field-type sprayers after dilution and thorough mixing with water or other carriers according to label instructions. This product requires use of a nonionic surfactant. When spraying this product, mix 2 or more quarts of a nonionic surfactant per 100 gallons of spray solution. The surfactant should contain at least 70 percent active ingredient. Ammonium sulfate, drift control additives, dyes, or colorants may also be used.

Time to Symptoms:
This product moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact to and into the root system. Visible effects on most annual weeds occur within 2 to 4 days, but on most perennial weeds may not occur for 7 days or more. Extremely cool or cloudy weather following treatment may slow activity of this product and delay development of visual symptoms. Visible effects are a gradual wilting and yellowing of the plant which advances to complete browning of above-ground growth and deterioration of underground plant parts.

Stage of Weeds:
Annual weeds are easiest to control when they are small. Best control of most perennial weeds is obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages approaching maturity. Refer to the annual, perennial, woody brush and trees rate tables for recommendations for specific weeds. Always use the higher rate of this product per acre within the recommended range when weed growth is heavy or dense or weeds are growing in an undisturbed (non-cultivated) area. Do not treat weeds under poor growing conditions such as drought stress, disease or insect damage, as reduced weed control may result. Reduced results may also occur when treating weeds heavily covered with dust.

Cultural Considerations:
Reduced control may result when applications are made to annual and perennial weeds that have been mowed, grazed, or cut, and have not been allowed to regrow to the recommended stage for treatment.

Rainfastness:
Heavy rainfall or irrigation soon after application may wash this product off of the foliage and a repeat application may be required for adequate control.

Spray Coverage:
For best results, spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray weed foliage to the point of runoff.

Mode of Action:
The active ingredient in this product inhibits an enzyme found only in plants that is essential to formation of specific amino acids.
