PRODUCT INFORMATION
This product is an amine salt formulation of MCP (2-Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid), a selective herbicide similar to 2,4-D. Certain ncrops, such as flax, oats, and rice appear to be more tolerant of MCP than 2,4-D, and some weeds such as mustard and Canada thistlenare more easily controlled by MCP than 2,4-D.
Generally, the lower dosages listed will be satisfactory for young, succulent growth of sensitive weed species. For less sensitive species and under conditions where control is more difficult, the higher dosages will be needed. Use moderate spray pressure (20.0 pounds) and enough spray volume for good coverage, usually 5.0 to 20.0 gallons per acre by ground equipment and at least 2.0 to 5.0 gallons per acre by air. Higher spray volumes may be useful in some situations to provide better spray coverage of weed foliage and to reduce spray bdrift. The use of adjuvants such as wetting agents may increase herbicidal effectiveness but may also decrease selectivity.
Agitation is helpful to assure uniform mixing, but is not necessary after the product has been completely dispersed. Use of this product may be governed in certain areas by local regulations. MCP produces best results when applied to weeds growing rapidly. Thorough coverage is important. Lack of moisture may cause less effective control. Some perennial weeds may require repeat treatment for control. Treat such weeds at bud stage if this occurs during a period when crop is not unduly susceptible.

RESTRICTIONS • DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
• Extreme care must be used when applying MCP to prevent injuring desirable plants and crops.
• MCP must not be applied in the vicinity of susceptible crops such as cotton, tomatoes, vegetables, grapes, fruit trees, soybeans, tobacco and beans.
• DO NOT allow spray mist to drift on to such plants, since even minute quantities of spray may cause severe injury.
• DO NOT use in greenhouses.
• DO NOT use in any manner other than recommended on the label to avoid possible crop injury or illegal residues at harvest.
• Read and carefully observe the cautionary statements and all other information appearing on labeling of all products used in mixtures.
• DO NOT contaminate water used for irrigation, domestic or spray purposes.
• DO NOT contaminate seed, feed, foodstuffs, fertilizers, insecticides or fungicides.

PRECAUTIONS
• Large amounts of MCP in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination.
• It is best to use a separate sprayer for application of MCP herbicides. If the same sprayer must be used for other crop spraying, it must be flushed thoroughly with water immediately after use. Next, fill equipment with water containing 1.0 volume of household ammonia to 100 volumes of water, and allow to stand for 1 day. Then flush equipment thoroughly, including hoses and nozzles, several times with water.
