As a resutt of leaf desiccation, improved trash burn can be expected.

Do not apply to any crops other than sugarcane.
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
Rainfall within 6 hours after application may reduce effectiveness. Use of this product in any manner not consistent with this label may result in injury to persons, animals or crops, or other unintended consequences.

Most of the sucrose increase is concentrated in the top nodes of the treated cane stalk. In order to recover the maximum sugar where topping is practiced during harvest, top at the base of the fourth leaf.
