DIRECTIONS FOR USE
RESTRICTED USE PESTICIDE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

USE INFORMATION
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide is designed for broad-spectrum postemergence control of important grass and broadleaf weed species in wheat (including durum wheat).

APPLICATION TIMING
Wheat
Apply HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide to the crop from 1 leaf up to 60 days prior to harvest in the states of Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota, and up to 70 days prior to harvest in other states. Do not apply to crops undersown with legume species.
Weed Application Timing
Grass Weeds: HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide will control susceptible grass weeds in the 1-leaf (fully expanded) up to the emergence of the 2nd tiller.
Broadleaf Weeds: See BROADLEAF WEED CONTROL CHART for a list of susceptible weed species and maximum stage of growth at application for best results.

APPLICATION DOSAGE and METHODS
Dosage: Apply 13.7 fluid ounces per acre. Do not use less than 13.7 fl oz of HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide per acre. One case will treat 40 acres.
Nitrogen sources: For optimal weed control, a spray grade quality ammonium sulfate fertilizer (21-0-0-24) from 0.5 lb/A up to 1.0 lb/A or a spray grade quality urea ammonium nitrate fertilizer (28-0-0 or 30-0-0 or 32-0-0) from 1 pt/A up to 1 qt/A may be added to HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide. If using an AMS or UAN containing product with a different concentration, adjust the rate accordingly.

COMPATIBILITY
If HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide is to be tank mixed with liquid fertilizers, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. Do not use additives that alter the spray solution below 6.0 pH. Best results are obtained at spray solution pH of 6.0 – 8.0

TANK MIX INSTRUCTIONS
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide contains 0.25 pounds of mefenpyr-diethyl per gallon of product. Applying the maximum- labeled rate of HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide delivers 0.027 lbs of mefenpyr-diethyl per acre. Do not apply more than a total of 0.053 pounds of mefenpyr-diethyl per acre per year.

Compatibility Testing With Tank Mix Partners
If HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide is to be tank mixed with other pesticides, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 qt) of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually will appear within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow the label of each tank-mix product used for precautionary statements, directions for use, geographic and other restrictions.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide must be applied with clean and properly calibrated equipment. Prior to adding HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide to the spray tank, ensure that the spray tank, filters, and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned. In-line strainers and nozzle screens should be 50 mesh or coarser.
1. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with clean water and begin agitation or bypass.
2. Add the appropriate rate of HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide directly to the spray tank. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application. DO NOT pre-slurry by adding any quantity of HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide to a small amount of water.
3. Add a listed tank mix partner, if desired.
4. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
5. Continue agitation during HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide application to ensure uniform spray coverage.
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide may settle if left standing without agitation. If the spray solution is allowed to stand for one hour or more, re-agitate the spray solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before application.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide is not volatile. Damage to sensitive crops can occur as a result of spray drift. Spray drift can be managed by several application factors and by spraying under the appropriate climatic conditions. Consequently, avoidance of spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator and grower.

CROP ROTATION GUIDELINES
The following crops have been field-tested and may be safely planted at the prescribed interval after an application of HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide. HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide breakdown in the soil is due mainly to microbial action. Under adverse conditions such as cold and drought, degradation may be slowed.
Where a crop is not specified, conduct a field bioassay as described in “FIELD BIOASSAY” section of this label. Do not plant any rotational crop within 90 days following application.
3 Month: Wheat.
9 Month: Alfalfa*, Barley (spring), Canola, Corn (field), Dry Beans, Grain Sorghum, Flax, Oats (spring), Peas** (field), Soybeans, Sugarbeets, Sunflowers.
18 Months: Lentils, Potatoes.
*Thorough tillage prior to planting alfalfa and a minimum of 12 inches of rainfall, overhead or flood irrigation or any combination of these water sources totaling 12 inches is required between the time following a Huskie Complete® Herbicide application and the time of alfalfa seeding.
**Field peas: 9 months for all states except 18 months in MT.

WEED RESISTANCE
Mode of Action
The active ingredients in this product, thiencarbazone-methyl, pyrasulfotole, and bromoxynil are Group 2, 27 and 6 Herbicides respectively based on the mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America. Any weed population may contain plants naturally resistant to Group 2, 27 or 6 herbicides. Weeds resistant to these herbicides may be effectively managed utilizing another herbicide from a different Group and/or by using cultural or mechanical practices. However, a herbicide mode of action classification by itself may not adequately address specific weeds that are resistant to specific herbicides. Consult your local company representative, state cooperative extension service, professional consultants, or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate actions for treating specific resistant weeds.
Best Management Practices
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide inhibits ALS, photosynthesis and the HPPD enzyme systems. Repeated use of herbicides with the same mode of action allows resistant weeds to spread. Proactively implementing diversified weed management programs may delay the development of resistant weeds. Diversified programs include the use of multiple herbicides with different modes of action with overlapping weed spectrums as well as the utilization of cultural weed control practices, such as tillage.
Use labeled rates of herbicides and carefully follow the directions for use.
Scout fields after a herbicide application to facilitate early detection of weed shifts and/or weed resistance.
Implement measures to avoid allowing weeds to reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
Clean equipment between sites and avoid movement of plant material between sites to retard the spread of potentially resistant weed seed.
HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide may be an effective tool in the management of broadleaf weed populations containing resistance to ALS, phenoxy, or glyphosate herbicide modes of action.

HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide contains 0.25 pounds of mefenpyr-diethyl per gallon of product. Applying the maximum- labeled rate of HUSKIE COMPLETE Herbicide delivers 0.027 lbs. of mefenpyr-diethyl per acre. Do not apply more than 0.053 pounds of mefenpyr-diethyl per acre per year.
A 25 foot buffer for ground applications, or a 200 foot buffer for aerial applications, must be maintained between the point of direct application and the closest downwind edge of sensitive terrestrial habitats (including grasslands, forested areas, shelterbelts, woodlots, hedgerows, riparian areas and shrub lands), sensitive freshwater habitats (including lakes, rivers, sloughs, ponds, creeks, marshes, streams, reservoirs and wetlands) and estuarine/marine habitats.
A closed system is required for mixers/loaders of aerial applications.
Do not apply through any type of irrigation system.
