APPLY THESE SPRAY SOLUTIONS IN PROPERLY MAINTAINED AND CALIBRATED EQUIPMENT CAPABLE OF DELNERING DESRiED VOL- UMES. SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT AVOID DRIFT. EXTREME CARE MUST BE USED WHEN APPLYING THIS PRODUCT TO PREVENT INTIJRY TO DESIIiABLE PLANTS AND CROPS. Do not allow [he herbicide solution to mist, drip, drift or splash onto desirable vegetation since minute quantities of [his product can cause seven damage or deswedon to Ne crop, plants or other areas on which treatmen[waz no[ intended. Avoiding spay drift at Ne application site is Ne responsibility of the applica- tor. The interaction of many. equipment and weather-related facmrs determine Ne potential for spiny drift The applicator and Ne grower arc responsible for considering all Nese facmrs when making decisions. , 7.1 Aerial Equipment DO NOT APPLY 7HI5 PRODUCT USING AERIAL SPRAY EQUIPMENT EXCEPT UNDER CONDTI70N5 AS SPECIFIED WITHIN THIS LABEL. Use the recommended rates of this herbicide in 3 to 15 gallons of water per acre unless otherwise specified on this IabeL Unlcss oherwise specified, do not teed i quern per atm. Refer to Ne individual use area sections of this label far commended volumes, application rates, and further instmctions. OR AERIAL A.°PLICATION IN CALIFORNIA OR SPBCffIC COUNTIES THEREIN, OR ARKANSAS, REFER TO THE FEDERAL SUPPLEMENTAL LABEL FOR AERIAL APPL]CATIONS IN' THAT STATE OR COUNTY FOR SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS, RESTRICTIONS AND REQUIItEMENTS This product plus dicamba tank mixtures may not be applied by air in Cahfomia. Ensure uniform application-To avoid sneaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices. AERIAL SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT - Thefollowing drill management requirements must be followed m avoid off-target drift movement from aerial applications [o agriculNal field crops. 1. 71se distance of the outemrost nozzles an the boom must not exceed >/. Ne length of the wingspan Dr rotor. 2. Nozzles must always point backward, peatlel with the air sveam and never bt pointed downwards more Nan 45 degrees. Whe¢ states have more stringent regulations, they should be observed. Importance of Droplet Size The most effective way m reduce drifr potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply Ne largest droplets that provide sut5- cient coveage and control, Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Ne "Wind", "Tempemmre and Humidity", and "Temperature Inversions" sections of this Iabe]). Contratling Droplet Size • Volume: Use high-flow-ate noules to apply the highest practical spiny vol- ume, Nozzles wiN the higher rated flows produce larger dmpic[s. • Pressure: Use Ne lower spray pressures recommended for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduoea droplet siu and does not improve canopy penetration. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher-flow-ate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. • Number otnoules: Use the minimum number of noules that provide uniform Coverage. • Nozzle orienN[ion: Orienting nozzles so Nat the spray is released backwards, paella] to the airstream, will produce larger droplets than other orienmdons. Significant deflection from the horizontal will reduce droplet size andinuease ddR potential. Nozzle type: Use a noule type Nat is designed for the intended application. WiN most nozzle types, narrower spay angles produce larger droplets. Consider using tow-drfr nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce larger droplets than other noule types. • Boom length: For. some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than t, of Ne wingspan or rotor IengN may furthu reduce drift without reducing swath widN. Database and format copyrirht©by VPC Acquisition Corporation. • Application height: Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet about the top of the largest plants unless a graaer height is required for aircafr safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe induces the exposure of the droplets m evapomdon and wind. Swath Adjustment When apphcations are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced down- wind. -Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for Nis displacement by adjusting the path of the aircmfr upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase, with inerwsing drift potential (highu wind, smaller droplets, etc:). Wind Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 to l0.nules per hour, However, many facmrs, including droplet size and equipment type determine drifr potential at any given syeed. Application should be avoided below 2 miles per hour duc to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Loco] retain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should he familiar with local wind patterns and haw Ney effect drift Temperature and Humidity When making applications in tow relative humidity, ut up equipmrnt to produce ]a aerdropleis to compensatc far evapomdon Droplet evapoatian is most severe when conditions are boN hot and dry. Temperature inversions - Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion becausc drift po- tential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds cotnmo¢ during invu• sions. Tempemmre inversions are characterized by increasing tempeamrcs wiN aldmde and are common oa nights with limited cloud cover and Ggh[ to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue inm Ne rooming. Thew presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, ihversio¢s can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground so[rrce or as aimraR smoke generator. Smoke chat layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Sensitive Areas The product should only be applied when dre potential for drift to adjaceN sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water; known habitat for Nrcarencd oc endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal (e.g., when wind is bowing away from the sensitive areas). Avoid direct application to any body of water. Aircraft Maintenance -. Thoroughly wazh airuafr, especially landing gear, after each day of spaying m remove residues of this product accumulated during spraying or from spills. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO UNCOATED STEEL SUR- FACES MAY RESULT Ai CORAOSiON AND POSSIBLE FAII.URE OF THE PART. LANDING GEAR IS MOST SUSCEPTIBLE, The mainrt¢aoce of an organic coating (paint), which meets auospace specification MIL-C-384]3, may prevent corosian. 7.2 Ground $roadeast Equipment Use the recommended rates of this pmduc[ in 3 m 40 gallons of water per aen as a broadcast spiny uNess otherwise specified. As density of weeds increases, spiny volume should b< incrcaud wiNin Ne recommended range to ensure complete coverage. Carefully select proper nozzles to avoid spraying a fine mist For best results with ground application equipment, trse flat spay noales. Check for even distribution of spray droplets. 73 Hand-Held or High-Volume Equipment Apply to foliage of vegetation to be convolled. For applications made on aspay- to-wet basis, spiny covemge should be uniform and complete. Do no[ apmy to Ne point of mnoff. Use coarse spays only. For rccommrndedrates and timing, refer to Ne "ANNUAL WEEDS-Hand-Held or High-Volume Equipmrnt" section of Nis product label. 7.4 Selective Equipment This product may be applied through rccimulating spay systems, shidded ape phcators, hooded sprayers, wiper applicators or sponge bars,~after dilution and Noreugh mixing wiN water, m listed weeds growing m any non<rop silt specified on this label. - ]n cropping systems, hooded sprayers, shielded sprayers, and wipers may be used in row middles (in between rows of crop plants) where any dripping or (taking will not contact crop foliage, when listed under `'TYPES OF APPLICATION" in the crop sections of this product's labeling. Such equipment must be capable of preventing all crop contact wide herbicide solutions and opeated without leakage of spaq mists or dapping onto crop. Wipers over-Ne-top of crops may be used only when specifically recommended in this product's labeling. AVOID CONTACT OF HERBICIDE WITH DESBL4BLE VEGETATION. Contact of the herbicide solution wiN desirable vegetation may result in damage or destruction. Applicators used above desirable vegetation should be adjusted so that Ne lowest spray stream or wiper contact paint is at ]east 2 inches above Ne desiable vegetaton, Droplets, mist, foam or splatter of the herbicide solution settling on desirable vegetation may result in discoloation, stunting or destvction. Applications made above the crops should be made when Ne weeds are a minimum of 6 inches above the desirable vegeation. Better results maybe obtained when more of the weed is exposed m Ne herbicide solution. Weeds not concocted by the herbicide solution will not be affected. This may occur in dense clumps, All rights resen'ed.
