GENERAL INFORMATION

 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide is a non-selective herbicide.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide provides control of a broad spectrum of grassy and broadleaf weeds in Canola and Soybean varieties or hybrids that are specially developed to be tolerant to glufosinate ammonium.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide is registered for use on glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola and Soybean varieties or hybrids.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may also be applied to glufosinate ammonium tolerant lines or varieties grown for seed production.
 For hybrid seed production, OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may be used to remove segregating wild type plants within the female population. Two applications are required to do this. A third application may be necessary if it is determined that the segregating wild type plants are not fully removed from the field.
 Glufosinate ammonium tolerant Corn can be used as separator rows in hybrid Canola seed production, but must be destroyed and not used for food or feed.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may be used as a harvest aid (desiccant) on Alfalfa grown for seed.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide will desiccate weeds that are present in the field at time of application when used as a harvest aid.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may also be used for primocane control in established Raspberries.
For use in eastern Canada and British Columbia only:
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may be used as a harvest aid (desiccant) in dry common beans.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide will also desiccate weeds present in the field at application.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may also be used for annual and perennial weed control in lowbush blueberries and under fruit trees, Grape vines and tree nuts.
 When applied pre-emergent to the crop, but post-emergent to weeds, OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may also be used on stale seedbed in vegetables or at ground crack in potatoes.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide breaks down rapidly in the soil. There are no cropping or rotational restrictions after application.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

As this product is not registered for the control of pests in aquatic systems, DO NOT use to control aquatic pests.

POST EMERGENT USE
CANOLA– EASTERN CANADA AND COASTAL BRITISH COLUMBIA ONLY
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide is registered for aerial and ground application to glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola varieties or hybrids.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may also be applied to glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola lines or varieties grown for seed production.
 To assure crop safety and optimal herbicide performance, only use OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide on glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola grown from certified seed.
 Application of OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide to non-tolerant Canola varieties or hybrids or other non-tolerant crops will result in severe crop injury or death of the crop.
 Apply OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide from the cotyledon stage up until, but prior to, the early bolting stage of Canola.
 Refer to weed/rate chart in this label for application rates and weeds controlled.
 For control/suppression of late emerging weeds or if new weed germination or growth is present re-apply OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide.
 A second application of OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide can be made to canola fields treated initially with up to 4.0 L/ha if new weed germination or growth is present.
 A first application of up to 4 L/ha may be followed by a second application of up to 3.33 L/ha,
OR
A first application of up to 3.33 L/ha may be followed by a second application of up to 4 L/ha.
 Do not apply more than a total of 7.33 L/ha per year.
 Apply when the new weed growth is in the correct leaf stage and up until, but prior to, the bolting stage of Canola.
 For best results, apply to emerged, young, actively growing weeds. Weeds that emerge after application will not be controlled.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide will have an effect on weeds that are larger than the recommended leaf stage, however speed of activity and control may be reduced.
 Slight discoloration of the Canola may be visible after application. This effect is temporary and will not influence crop growth, maturity or yield.
 For application to glufosinate ammonium and glyphosate tolerant canola varieties or hybrids: OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide should be applied in a sequential program with glyphosate for effective weed control. Tank-mixing OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide with glyphosate may result in reduced control on certain weed species.
For Hybrid Canola Seed Production Only
 Two applications are required to remove the segregating wild type plants. The first application should occur when the Canola is in the 2-4 leaf stage, the second application when the Canola plants are in the 4-6 leaf stage and the third application, if necessary, may be applied to the Canola up until, but prior to, the bolting stage. All applications of
OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide for hybrid seed production should be made at 3.33 L/ha.
 Do not apply more than a total of 9.99 L/ha per year.
Use of Corn Separator Rows in Hybrid Canola Seed Production
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide is registered for use on glufosinate ammonium tolerant
Corn varieties or hybrids when used as separator rows.
 Corn should be seeded at 20,000 - 30,000 plants/ha.
 Row spacing for glufosinate ammonium tolerant Corn should be 18-23 cm.
 Note: Corn must be destroyed and not used for food or feed.
 DO NOT contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
 Follow use instructions for canola and general instructions in this label.
CANOLA ‐ PRAIRIE PROVINCES AND INTERIOR OF BRITISH COLUMBIA ONLY
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide is registered for aerial and ground application to glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola varieties or hybrids grown in the Prairie
Provinces and Interior of British Columbia only.
 OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide may also be applied to glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola lines or varieties grown for seed production.
 To assure crop safety and optimal herbicide performance, only use OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide on glufosinate ammonium tolerant Canola grown from certified seed.
 Application of OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide to non-tolerant Canola varieties or hybrids or other non-tolerant crops will result in severe crop injury or death of the crop.
 Apply OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide from the cotyledon stage up until, but prior to, the early bolting stage of Canola.
 Refer to weed/rate chart in this label for application rates and weeds controlled.
 For control/suppression of late emerging weeds or if new weed germination or growth is present re-apply OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide.
 A second application of OPPORTUNITY 15 SL Herbicide can be made to canola fields treated initially with up to 4.0 L/ha if new weed germination or growth is present.
