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

INFORMATION
OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is a selective pre-plant, pre-emergence and postemergence herbicide for use in spring, durum, winter wheat and triticale.

APPLICATION
Most consistent control is obtained with ground application. Either ground or aerial (fixed wing or helicopter) application equipment may be used to apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE as a foliar spray. Thorough coverage improves weed control. Select spray volume to ensure optimum plant coverage . Calibrate spray equipment before use.
The use of nozzles and spray pressure that deliver Coarse spray droplets as indicated in the nozzle manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572 are highly recommended for optimum spray coverage and canopy penetration. Avoid uneven spray distribution, skips, overlaps, and spray drift.
Do not apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE through irrigation systems.
OLYMPUS  70%  WATER  DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE may be applied preplant, pre-emergence and postemergence. Refer to tables on this label for specific directions according to crop and application method. Postemergence timing for wheat is from 2-leaf to before jointing begins. Because of the soil activity provided by OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE, all weeds do not have to be emerged for weed control to occur. Do not apply more than a total of 1.2 oz of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE per acre per crop year.

USE RATES
Winter Wheat and Fall Planted Triticale
Preplant / Pre-emergence Burndown: Apply 0.6 oz OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE per acre with glyphosate in the fall. This product can be mixed with glyphosate containing products in a burn down application in accordance with the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions. No label dosage rates should be exceeded. This product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing. Follow the glyphosate product label for rate and adjuvant recommendation for control of emerged species.
Postemergence: Apply 0.6 - 0 .9 oz OLYMPUS 70% WATER  DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE per acre with 0.25% - 0.5% non-ionic surfactant in fall or spring in a single application to actively growing weeds. Select rate according to table "Weeds Controlled."
A fall application of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE may be followed by a spring application of the product up to a maximum of 1.2 oz per acre OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE per crop year.
Apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE before jointing begins to avoid crop injury.

Postemergence in all states except WA, ID and OR: In spring wheat, apply 0.2 oz OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE postemergence per acre in a single application to actively growing weeds. Do  not  exceed  a  product  application  rate  of 0.4 oz per acre or 0 .0175 lb propoxycarbazone active ingredient per acre in a spring wheat-growing season.
Apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE before jointing begins to avoid crop injury.

Postemergence in WA, ID, and OR: In spring wheat, apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE at 0.6 – 0.9 oz per acre in a single application to actively growing weeds. Select rate according to table “Weeds controlled.” Do not exceed a product application rate of 0.9 oz per acre or 0.039 lb propoxycarbazone active ingredient per spring wheat growing season. Avoid use on ALS-sensitive varieties. Apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE before jointing begins to avoid crop injury.

Triticale
Apply 0.6 - 0 .9 oz OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE
GRANULAR HERBICIDE per acre in a single postemergence application to actively growing  weeds.
See the “CROP ROTATION RESTRICTIONS” section for recropping guidance. The crop rotational options will depend on the total amount of propoxycarbazone applied cumulatively in preplant / pre-emergence and/or postemergence treatments.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure the spray tank is clean. In-line strainers and nozzle screens should be clean and 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 OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE, as determined under “Recommended Rates”, directly to the spray tank . Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application.
3. Add the broadleaf weed herbicide.
4. Add the surfactant.
5. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
6. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE.

COMPATIBILITY
If OLYMPUS  70% WATER  DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE is to be tank mixed with other herbicides, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1qt) of spray solution, 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 occur 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. Indications of incompatibility include separation in the mix, and either clumping or clabbering of the mixture.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
OLYMPUS  70%  WATER  DISPERSIBLE  GRANULAR 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.

RESTRICTIONS FOR USE
Do not apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE to crops undersown with grass and legume species.
Do not apply more than 1.2 oz/acre of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE in one wheat-growing season.
Do not apply when wind causes drift to off-site vegetation as injury may occur. Small amounts of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE via drift or tank contamination can cause severe damage to crops other than wheat. Careful management of spray drift and tank cleanout is required.
Do not apply OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE in tankmixture with malathion, mancozeb, phosphorodithioate (Di-Syston), chlorpyrifos (Lorsban), or methyl parathion as unacceptable crop response may occur.
Do not harvest wheat for grain or straw within 71 days of OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE application. Wheat forage may be grazed immediately after OLYMPUS 70% WATER DISPERSIBLE GRANULAR HERBICIDE application.
