Use to Hawau: ]n Hawaii, approved uses of Tordon 22K are limited to thou descnbed in Supplemental Labeling which may be obtained from your Dow Agro- Sciences representative ar chemical dealer. Refer to this Supplemental labeling for specific use directions and precautions. Ta prevent damage to crops and other desirable plants, read and follow all directions end precautions on this label and container before using. Do Not Mix With Dry Fertilizer. Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of irtigation system. Grazing Restrictions: When applying more than I quart of Tordon 22K per acre, do not cut gross for feed within nvo weeks after treatment. Meat animals grazing for up to two weeks after treatment should be removed from treated areas three days prior to slaughter, Do not graze lactating dairy animals on vested areas within two weeks altar treatment Gress Tolerance: Tordon 22K at rotes over 1 quart per acre may suppress certain established grasses, such as bromegmss,blue gmmma, and buffalogmss. However, subsequent gross growth should be improved by release from weed competition. Grazing Poisonous Plants; Herbicide application may increase palatability of certain poisonous plants. Do not graze vested areas until poisonous plants arc dry end no longer palatable to livestock. Maximum Use Rates: •~ Non-cropland Areas: 7oml use of Tordon 22K, including retrea[ments or spot treatments, must not exceed 1 Ib a.i, piclomm (2 quarts of Tordon 22K) per acre per annual growing season. • Rangeland and Permanent Grass Pastures: Far control ofnoxious or invasive weeds as defined by federal, state, or local authorities, Tordon 22K maybe - applied at up to 2 quarts per acre per annual growing season as a broadcast treatment Spot veatmen[s rosy be applied at the equivalrnt broadcast rote of up to 2 quarts per acre. For convol of other broadleaf weeds and woody plants, Tordon 22K may be applied broadcast at up to l .quart per acre per annual growing season. Spot treatments may be applied at an equrvalem broadcast rote of up to 2 quarts per acre per annual growing season, but not more than 50% of an Bare may be treated Repeat treatments may be applied es necessary, but toml use must not exceed the maxirrium amount specified. • Cropland (Spring-seeded Wheat, Barley and Oats): Do not apply more than I +F fluid ounces of Tordon 22K per acre during the small grain growrng season. • Fallow Cropland (Not Rotated to Broadleaf Crops): Do not apply more diem 1 pint per acre as a broadcast treatment per annual growing season. • Canservadon Reserve Program (CRP) for Seeding to Permanent Grasses Ooly: Do not broadcast apply more than 1 quart per acre of Tordon 22K per annual growing season or apply more than 2 quarts per acre per annual growing season as a spot application. To reduce potential damage to subsequent small grain craps, use the lower rote or discontinue the use of Tordon 22K a[ Ieut 2 years prior to the Seeding of small grain crops. After CRP, do nut plant broadleaf crops in treated acres until an adequately sensitive bioassay shows [hat no detectable piclomm is present m the soil. Precsutons for Avoiding Injury to Non-target Plants • Do not use manure from animals grazing «eared areas or feeding on vested hay on land used (or growing broadleaf crops, ornamentals, orchards or o[htt suuep[ible, desirable plants. Manure may contain enough piclomm to cauu injury to susceptible plants. . Do not use grass or hay from treated areas for composting or mulching of suuepnble broadleaf crops. . Do not transfer livestock from treated grazing areas (or feeding of vested hay) onto sensitive broadleaf crop areas without 5rst allowing 7 days of grazing on an untreated grass pasture (or feeding of untreated hay). Otherwise, urine and manure may contain enough piclomm to cause injury w sensitive broadleaf plane. • Do not contaminate water intended for irrigation or domestic purposes. To avoid injury to crops or other desirable plants, do not veer or allow spiny drift or mnoff m fall onto banks or bottoms of irtigation ditches, either dry or containing water, or other channels that carry water that may be used for irrigadon or domestic purposes. • Do not use oo flood or sub-irrigated land. • Do not rotate to food or feed crops on treated land if they are not registered for use with piclomm until an adequately sensitive bioassay or chemcal test shows that no detectable piclomm is present in the soil. • Da Hat spray if the loss of forage legumes, including clover cannot be tolerated. Tordon 22K may injure or kill legumes. New legume seedlings may not grow for several years following application of this herbicide. • Do not apply to snow or frozen ground. Application during very cold (near frazing) weather is not advisable. • Tordon ZZK should not be applied oo residential ar commercial lawns or near ornamental trees and shrubs. Unveated trees can occasionally be a$ected by root uptake of herbicide through movement into the topsoil or by excretion of the product from the roots of nearby veamd «ees. Do not apply Tordon 22K within the root zone of desirable trees unless such injury can be tokmted. . Da~not move treated soil m areas other than those treatment sites for which Tordon 22K is registered for use. Also, do not use treated soil to grow plants Database and format copyright ©by l+anee Communication Corp. A for which use of Tordon 22K is not registered until an adequately sensitive bioassay or chemical test shows that no detectable residue of piclomm is present in the soil. - • Do not make application when circumstances favor movement from vea~- meat site. - Precautions for Avoiding Injurious Spray Drift Do not apply or otherwise permit Tordon 22K or sprays containing Tordoo 22K to confaq crops or other desirable broadleaf plants, including but not limited to alfalfa, beans, gropes, melons, peas, potatoes, safflower, soybeans, sugar beets, sunflower, tomatoes, and othttyegetable crops, flowers, fruit plants, - omamentals or shade trees or the soil containing roots of nearby valuable plants. Applications should be made to avoid spray drift since very small. quantities of spiny, which may not be visible, may seriously injure susceptible crops during both growing and dormant periods. To minimize spiny drift, uu ]ow nozzle pressure; apply as a coarse spiny; and use noules designed for herbicide application that do not produce a fine droplet spray. To aid in further reducing spray drift, e drift control and deposition aid may be used with this producS especially when water alone is used as the carrier. ]f a drfr control aid is used,, follow all use recommendations end precautions an the product label. Do not use a thickening agent with Microfoil or Thm-Valve booms, or othtt systems that cannot accommodate thick sprays. Craund Equipment: With ground equipment spray drift can be lessened by keeping the spray boom as low as possible; by applying 10 gallons or more of spiny per acre; by keeping the operating spray pressures at [he manufacmrer'a recommended minimum pressures for the specific mule type used (]ow pressure noules arc available from spray equipment manufacturers); by spraying when the wind velocity is low (follow state regulations). Avoid calm conditions which may be conducive to air inversions. Direm sprays no .higher than the tops of target vegetation and keep spray pressures low enough m provide coarse spray droplets to mmimiu drift. Aspray-thickening agent may be used to further reduce the potential for drift. Aerial Application: Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsi- bility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment-end-weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift The applicator end the growtt arc responsble for considering all these factors when making decisions. The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-cargo drift movement from aerial applications: 1. The distance of the outer most operating nozzles on the boom must not exceed ~'. the length of the wingspan or romr. 2. Noules must always point backward parallel with the air sveem and Haver be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees. Where states have more stringent regulations, they shall be observed. The applicator should be familiar with and take into account the information covered to the following Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory: [This information is advisory in nature and does not supersede mandatory label requiremenu.] Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Informadon on Droplet Size: The most effective way m reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage end control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improp- erly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind, Tempemmre end Humidity, and 7empemturc Inversions). Convolling Droplet Size: • Volume-Use high 17ou~ rote nozzles to apply the highest practical spray vol- time. Noules with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. • Pressure-Do not exceed the Houle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For many nozzle types lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rotes are needed, use higher flow rote nozzles instead of increasing pressure. • Number ofi~'ozzles-Use the minimum number ofnoules that provide tintform coverage. • Nozzle Orientation--0rienting nozzles so that the spiny is released parallel to the airsveam produced larger dropplets than other onenta«ons and is the rec- ommended pmctite. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet siu and increase drill potential. - • Nouee Type-Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. - With most Houle types, narrower spiny angles produce larger drople6. Considtt using low-drift noules. Solid stream noules oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift. Boom Length: For some use panems, reducing the effective boom length to less than , of the wingspan or rotor leogth may further reduce drift without reducing swath width. Application Height: Applications, should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest plants unless a greater height is requitrxl for airemfi safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind. Swath Adjustment: When applications arc made with a crosswind, the swath u~l1 be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the aircmfi upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase, with increasng® drfr potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.) Wind: Orifi potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2-)0 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment Type determine ddfl potential at any given speed. Application should be avoided below 2 mph due Io variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Laval terrain can influence II riehts reserved.
