PRODUCT INFORMATION
Read all label directions before using. This product is a selective herbicide which may be applied preplan! surface, pre-emergence and/or post-emergence for control or partial control of broadleaf weeds, grasses and sedges in cotton, dry beans, snap beans and soybeans.

Preplant Surface and Pre-emergence Applications
Certain germinating broadleaf weeds, grasses and sedges may be controlled or suppressed by soil residual activity from either preplant surface or pre-emergence applications of this product, if rainfall occurs shortly after application. The'extent and consistency of soil activity is dependent upon soil characteristics, ground cover, amount of rainfall following application and the rate of this product used. Dry weather following applications of this product may reduce effectiveness. When adequate moisture is not received after an application of this product, weed control may be improved by overhead irrigation with at least a 1/4 inch of water.

Post-emergent Applications
This product is generally most effective and consistent when used post-emergence, working through contact action. Therefore, emerged weeds must have thorough spray coverage for effective control. Optimum post-emergent broad spectrum weed control is achieved by early application of this product to young actively growing broadleaf weeds.
This usually occurs within 14 to 28 days after planting. Refer (o the weed control tables for specific information on weed growth stages and rates. Some bronzing, crinkling or spotting of labeled crop leaves may occur following post-emergence applications, but labeled crops soon outgrow these effects and develop normally.

Soil Characteristics
Application of this product to soils with high clay content and/or high organic matter may require higher rates than soils with low clay content and/or low organic matter. Refer to the Regional Boundaries/Definition section of this label, weed control tables, and specific crop use sections for directions on use rates based on soil texture.

Environmental and Agronomic Conditions
Always apply this product under favorable environmental conditions that promote active weed growth. Avoid applying this product to
weeds or labeled crops which are under stress from drought, extreme temperatures, low humidity, low soil fertility, excessive water,
mechanical or chemical injury, as reduced weed control and/or increased crop injury may result.

Rainfastness
This product requires a 1 hour rain-free period for best results when applied post-emergence.

Cultivation
Do not cultivate prior to post-emergence application. Cultivation may put weeds under stress, reducing weed control. Timely . cultivation 1-3 weeks after applying this product may assist weed control.

Weed Resistance
Naturally occurring biotypes of certain broadleaf species with resistance to this herbicide and related products (same mode of action) are known to exist. Selection of resistant biotypes, through repeated use of these herbicides, may result in control failures. If poor performance cannot be attributed to adverse weather conditions or improper application methods, a resistant biotype may be present. In such a case,.additional treatments with this herbicide or similar mode of action products are not recommended. Consult your local company representative or agricultural advisor for assistance.
