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.

USE PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS:
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. Don't overdose! Avoid spray drift to cotton, soybeans, tomatoes, tobacco, grapes, fruit trees, flowers, garden crops, ornamental plants, shrubs, trees and other hormone sensitive, desirable plants. Do not apply near these plants because small quantities of wind drifted herbicide may cause severe injury. Do not apply when wind speed is sufficient to cause drift.
Do not apply when an air temperature inversion exists. An air inversion may be detected by creating a smoke column and observing a layering effect. Do not broadcast spray when air temperatures exceed 85°F; some injury may be expected with spot treatments when air temperatures exceed 85°F. Care should be taken not to make applications where runoff could carry the chemical to nontarget areas. Local spray conditions will vary. Check local recommendations first.

GENERAL INFORMATION:
Efficacy tests in the U.S. and in Europe show that several crops such as flax and small grains under seeded with legumes are more tolerant of MCPA than they are of 2,4-D. This product is effective on a large number of broadleaf weeds and is useful for controlling these weeds in certain crops. Use Gordon's MCPA Amine 4 on oats because oats are more tolerant to this herbicide than they are of 2,4-D.

WHEN TO USE:
Best results are obtained from Gordon's MCPA Amine 4 when used on weeds that are young and in an actively growing condition. Applications of lower rates to susceptible annual weeds usually will be satisfactory, but for the perennial weeds and other conditions where weed kill is difficult, use higher rates. When used as a selective spray in crops, the stage of growth of the crop must be considered. Some weeds are hard to kill and repeat applications may be necessary.

SPRAY PREPARATION:
Fill spray tank with one-half the required amount of water, then add the recommended amount of Gordon's MCPA Amine 4 and continue filling spray tank with the balance of water. Keep agitator running when filling the spray tank and during spray operations. Use enough spray volume for uniform coverage by ground or air application. The amount of water required for low volume applications may vary from 2 to 25 gallons per acre. For high volume applications 25 to 100 gallons or more of water will be necessary for good coverage. In any case, use the same amount of Gordon's MCPA Amine 4 recommended per acre. To convert local recommendations into forms of Gordon's MCPA Amine 4, use the following table.
