DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. READ ENTIRE LABEL BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT. USE STRICTLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH LABEL PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS AND DIRECTIONS. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
Do not apply at rates higher than recommended. Excessive amounts in the soil may temporarily stop seed germination or plant growth. Do not use on light, sandy soils. If regular insecticide spreader is used to apply this product, be sure to clean equipment thoroughly before other use. This product will injure vegetables, flowers, grapes, fruit plants, ornamentals, cotton, soybean, and other desirable plants. Make application on cornland in such a way that runoff water from rain or irrigation will not come in contact with these plants. Do not contaminate irrigation ditches or water used for domestic purposes.
However, treated water may be used for watering turf grasses immediately after application. Do not use in or near a greenhouse. At higher temperatures, vapors may cause injury to sensitive plants growing nearby.

CROPS
CORN (Field): For preemergence application to aid control of annual grasses such as large and small Foxtail (Pigeon grass), Crabgrass, Barnyardgrass; broadleaved weeds such as Smartweed, Sunflower, Wild mustard, Cocklebur, Bindweed, Dandelion, Morningglory, Pigweed, Tarweed, Ragweed, Wild radish, Pennyworts, Plantains, Healall, Chicory, Yellow star thistle, Lambsquarters, and Watergrass.
This product should be applied preferably at corn planting time. It may, however, also be applied just before corn emerges through the soil. Plant corn at least 2 inches deep when using preemergence 2,4-D applications. This will aid in preventing injury from leaching of weed killer. With this treatment, one should not expect season-long control. It is intended to control grasses for 3 to 4 weeks so that the corn seedlings can get started without competition. It has very little effect on established broadleaf weeds over 6 inches tall; and none at all on grassy weeds once they have germinated. Use 5 pounds of this product per acre applying to soil from time of planting up to 2 days before corn seedlings emerge. This application is on a broadcast basis equivalent to 1 pound of actual 2,4-D (Acid) equivalent. For band or row application approximately 14 inches wide, apply 3.5 pounds of this product per acre on 40 inch rows. Limited to one preplant or preemergence application per crop cycle at a maximum of 5 pounds per acre per application.
CRANBERRIES: For preemergence application to control annual broadleaved weeds in bearing cranberry marshes, apply at a rate of 10 to 20 pounds per acre (2 to 4 pounds 2,4-D equivalent per acre). Application should be made broadcast in the spring after removal of the winter flood from the dormant vines.. Weeds controlled are Common Ragweed, Sticktight, Tearthumb, Smartweed, Northern Saint Johnswort, and common species of Annual Smartweed. Careful distribution of granules is necessary if adequate control is to be obtained. (For Wisconsin area granules may also be distributed on ice over plants prior to spring thaw.) Limited to one application per dormant season. Maximum of 20 pounds of product per application.
