GENERAL INFORMATION
RAPTOR DG herbicide is effective in controlling weeds in conservation tillage and conventional production systems, RAPTOR DG can be applied early postemergence in soybeans but before the bloom stage. Refer to the specific treatment under the "APPLICA nON INFORMA nON" section of the label.
The mode of weed killing activity involves uptake of RAPTOR DG by foliage and/or weed roots and rapid translocation to the growing points. After RAPTOR DG application, susceptible weeds may show yellowing and weed growth will stop. Susceptible weeds stop growing and either die or are not competitive with the crop. Adequate soil moisture is important for optimum RAPTOR DG activity. When adequate soil moisture is present, RAPTOR DG will provide residual activity of susceptible germinating weeds; activity on established weeds will depend on the weed species- and the location of its root system in the soil. A timely cultivation after a RAPTOR DG application may improve general weed control.
Use of RAPTOR DG is expected to result in normal growth of rotational crops in most situations; however, various environmental and agronomic factors make it impossible to eliminate all risks associated with the use of this product and, therefore, rotational crop injury is always possible. Occasionally, internode shortening and/or temporary yellowing of crop plants may occur follbwing
RAPTOR DG applications. These effects can be more pronounced if crops are growing under stressful environmental or hot and humid conditions. These effects occur infrequently and are temporary. Normal growth and appearance should resume within I to 2 weeks, Replanting: If replanting is necessary in a field previously treated with RAPTOR DG, the field may be replanted to soybeans. Rework the soil no deeper than 2 inches. DO NOT apply a second treatment of RAPT OR DG. '
Naturally occurring biotypes* of some of the weeds listed on this label may not be effectively controlled by this and/or other products with either the ALSI AHAS enzyme inhibiting mode of action. Other herbicides with the ALSI AHAS enzyme inhibiting mode of action include the sulfonylureas (e.g" Accentl, Basisl, ClassicI, ConcertI, Exceed2, Permie, Pinnacle I , etc,), thesulfonamides (e.g., Broadstrike4, etc.) and the pyrimidyl benzoates (e.g. Staplel, etc.). [fnaturally occurring ALSI AHAS resistant biotypes are present in a field, RAPTOR DG and/or any other ALSI AHAS enzyme inhibiting mode of action herbicide should be tank-mixed or applied sequentially with an appropriate registered herbicide having a different mode of action to ensure control.
* A weed biotype is a naturally occurring plant within a given species that has a slightly different, but distinct, genetic makeup from other plants
