<br />GENERAL INFORMATION
<br />PLATEAU herbicide is an aqueous solution to be mixed with water and an
<br />adjuvant and applied as a apmy solution to provide weed control and/or turf
<br />height supprcuion on pastures, rangeland (see "GUIDELINES FOR RANGE-
<br />LAND USE" section), Federal Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) land aM
<br />nontropland areas including noncropland areas that may be grazed or cut for
<br />hay. Examples of noncrophmd areas include, but arc not limiud m railroad,
<br />utility, pipeline and highway rightsof--way, railroad ttouings, utility plant sites,
<br />-petroleum rank farms, pumping installations, non-agricultwal frnce rows, s[omge
<br />areas, non-irrigation diuhbanks, prairie sites, auports, industrial turf, golf course,
<br />recreational and non-residential turf and other similar areas. PLATEAU herbicide
<br />may be used for the release of bcrmudagrus, bahiagrass, smootlt bromegrass,
<br />wheatgrass, "wildtype" common Kentucky bluegrass, native prairiegrass, wild-
<br />flowers,crown vetch, othtt grosses and certain legmnes. PLATEAU herbicide can
<br />also be used for weed wntrol during the etablishmcnt of native prairiegraues and
<br />other grasses (see "REVEGETATION WITH PRAIRIEGRASSES AND OTHER
<br />FORAGE GRASSES" section).
<br />PLATEAU herbicide is readily aberbed through leaves, sums, and roots and is
<br />tramlocated rapidly throughout the plan; with accumulation in the meristematie
<br />regions. Treaud plants stop growing soon otter apmy application. Chlorosis ap-
<br />pears first in the newest leaves, and necrosis spreads from this point In perennials,
<br />the herbicide is eranslocated inm, and ki1Lt, underground storage organs which
<br />przvcnts regrowth. Chlorosis and tissue necrosis may not be apparent in some
<br />plant species for several weeks after application. Complete kill of plants may
<br />not occur for sevcml weeks after application. Adequate sail moisture is impor-
<br />tant for optimum PLATEAU herbicide activiTy. When adequate soil moistum is
<br />preen; PLATEAU herbicide wiL provide reidual control of susceptible germi-
<br />nating weeds. Activity on etablishcd weeds will depend on the weed species and
<br />rooting depth. PLATEAU herbicide is rainfast one hour after application.
<br />PLATEAU httbicide will control annual and perennial grasus and broadleaf
<br />weeds and vine species. PLATEAU herbicide will. provide residual control of
<br />lalxled weeds which germinau in Ore treated area. Certain brash species end
<br />omamrntals may be injured by direct appbcation of PLATEAU herbicide m
<br />tueq foliage. This product may be applied either prccmergence or postemergence
<br />to the weeds. However, posumergence application is the method of choice in
<br />mom situations, particularty for perennial species. For maximum activity, weeds
<br />should be growing vigorousty a[ the time of posumergence applications and
<br />the apmy elution should include an adjuvant (see "SPRAY ADJUVANTS FOR
<br />POSfEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS" semion). These solutions may be applied
<br />as a broadcast or as a spot treatrnent using backpack, or ground equipment
<br />Database and format copyright ©by Vance Communication Corp: All
<br />PLATEAU herbicide may be applied in the dormant or growing season for weed
<br />control.
<br />Tolerance of desirable grass specks m PLATEAU herbicide may be reduced
<br />whrn grasus are strewed due to insect damage, diseue, envuommental conditions,
<br />shade, poorly drained soils or other causes. -
<br />Depending on the turf type being treated, some yellowing of turf may occu
<br />with app4caOons during [he growing season. Depending on weather conditions,
<br />yellowing wiL usually disappear in 2 to 4 weeks.
<br />PLATEAU herbicide should not be applied to newly seeded or sprigged gross
<br />stands, unless otherwise stated in this label (see "REVEGETATION WITH
<br />PRAIRIEGRASSES AND OTHER FORAGE GRASSES" section).
<br />MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
<br />Fill the spiny tank one-half mthree-quarters full wit(t clean water. Use a calibmud
<br />measuring device to mcuurc the rcquved amount of PLATEAU herbicide. Add
<br />PLATEAU herbicide to the spiny tank while agitating. Fill the remainder of the
<br />rank with water.
<br />For posumergrnce applications, add a surfactant [o the spray tank (see "SPRAY
<br />ADJUVANTS FOR POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS" section of this label
<br />for specific recommrndations). Maintain agitation while spraying to ensure a
<br />uniform spiny mixmrc. An antifoaming agent mny be added to the tank if needed.
<br />When tank-mixing PLATEAU 6crbicide with recommended herbicides, add wet-
<br />table powders, dispersible granules or other dry fornulations firs; then EC's, then
<br />PLATEAU herbicide, and then an adjuvant.
<br />SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS
<br />DO NOT apply during windy or gusty conditions unless apphwtions are being
<br />made with a drift control agent and/or an enclosed or shielded spray sysum. DO
<br />NOT apply if rainfall is threauning. Rainfall within 1 horn after PLATEAU
<br />herbicide application may reduce weed conhnl.
<br />GROUND APPLICATIONS:
<br />Uniformly apply with propttty calibrated ground equipment in 2 or more galons
<br />of wear per acre. Application equipmrn; specially designed m make low volume
<br />application should be used when making applications using less than 10 gallons
<br />of wear par acre. A apmy preuure of 20 to 40 psi is recommended.
<br />To achieve acceptable control of the target vcgcmtion; good apmy coverage of
<br />t6c weed fohage (posumergrncc) or soil surface (prcemergence) is required. Tm
<br />achieve goad apmy coverage the sprayer must be cahbrated to deliver the recom-
<br />mended spray volume and pressure and adjust the apmy boom height m ensure
<br />proper coverage of weed foliage err soil surface (according to the manufacturer's
<br />rccommrndation). Avoid ovttlaps when spraying.
<br />spot 7REATMENTS:
<br />To prepare the spiny solution, thoroughly mix in water 0.25 to 1.5% (0.3
<br />1.9 oLga0oa water) PLATEAU herbicide plus an adjuvant (see "SPRAY AD-
<br />SUVANTS FOR POSTEMERGENCE APPWCATIONS" section). A methytaud
<br />seed oil at 1%v/v is the recommended spiny adjuvant except when treating uedhng
<br />prairiegra;se and wildflowers. See section on dtsired species and do not exceed
<br />the recommrnded PLATEAU mu per acre. Also see "WEEDS CONTROLLED"
<br />end "SPECIAL WEED CONTROL" actions far specific rate and/or rank-mix
<br />recommendations.
<br />AERIAL APPLICATION:
<br />All prccaufions should be taken to minimize or eliminau spray drift. Fixed wing
<br />aircraft and helicopurs can be used to apply PLATEAU herbicide, howevtt, when
<br />making applications by fixed wing aircraft maintain approprieu buffer zones tu
<br />prevent spray drift out of the target area. Aerial equipment designed tu minimize
<br />apmy drift such as a helicapur equipped with a MICROFOH.r" boom, qr THRU-
<br />VALVEr" boom or raindrop nozzles, must be uud and calibrated. Except when
<br />applying with a MICROFOII- boom, a drift control agent may be added at the
<br />recommended label rote. To avoid drift, applications should not be made during
<br />inversion conditions, when winds arc gusty, or under any other conditiens that
<br />promou spray drift.
<br />Uniformly apply recommended amount of PLATEAU herbicide, using enough
<br />waur votumc to provide adequau coverage of target area or foliage. Include rn
<br />adjuvant N the spray elution (see "SPRAY ADJUVANTS FOR POSTEMER-
<br />GENCE APPLICATIONS" action). A foam reducing agent may be added at
<br />the recommended rate, if needed. Aerial application m target spemes growing
<br />under the canopy of trees and brash may not receive sufficient spray coverage for
<br />effective control. Far weed species with a recommended fall apphcatian timing
<br />(see "SPECIAL WEED CONTROL" section), delaying the aerial application
<br />until trees and brash have dropped thew ]eaves can improve weed control and
<br />redact the potential for tree and brash injury (zee "TOLERANCE OF TREES
<br />AND BRUSH 70 PLATEAU HERBICIDE" sation). -
<br />IMPORTANT: Thoroughly clean apphcation equipmen; including Lording gwr,
<br />immediatety after uu of this product. Prolonged exposure of this product to
<br />uncoated steel (except stainles sue]) surfaces may result in corrosion and failure
<br />of the exposed part. 'fie maintrnance of an organic coating (paint) may prevent
<br />corrosion.
<br />Avoid overlaps when spraying.
<br />SPRAY ADJUVANTS FOR POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS
<br />Posumergence applications of PLATEAU herbicide require a spiny adjuvan
<br />See "SPECIAL WEID CONTROL" section. Due to variations m surpactan
<br />conunta, certain surfactants containimg high amounts of alcohok, paraffin based
<br />petroleum oik, and other ~omppourids which can increau phymmxicity m desirable
<br />vegetation, it b rewmmended m choose a low phytotoxic surfactant
