Application Tips
Ensure that proper rate, water volume and timing is used; otherwise, crop injury may occur. Risk of crop injury
increases as water volume drops below 36 L/acre. Do not apply when temperatures exceed 27°C and relative
humidity is very high. Apply to weeds that are actively growing and are in the 2 - 3 leaf stage for best results.
How it Works
Accumulates in the growing points resulting in abnormal growth, which disrupts the transport system in plants.
Expected Results
Weeds
:
Visible effects occur 7 - 14 days after spraying. Leaves curl, leaf petioles twist, leaf edges turn brown, the
whole plant ceases growth, eventually turns brown and dies.
Crop
:
Improper applications can result in abnormal bending at the internodes of grain stalks, difficulty in head
emergence from sheath, curled awns, malformed kernels and sterile florets. Poor results may be expected with
overmature weeds, inadequate coverage or rainfall less than 4 hours after application.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
within 4 hours of application may reduce activity.
Grazing
:
Do not permit lactating dairy animals to graze fields within 7 days after application. Withdraw meat
animals from treated fields at least 3 days before slaughter.
Pre-harvest Intervals - stubble land, roadsides, pasturelands and summerfallow
:
Do not harvest forage or cut for
hay within 30 days after application.
Environmental Precautions
This product is toxic to small mammals, birds, aquatic organisms and non-target terrestrial plants. Observe buffer
zones specified under Directions for Use on the label.
Drift
:
Garden crops and ornamental plants are very sensitive to drift.
Runoff
:
Avoid water contamination through runoff or leaching by observing recommended buffer zones and avoid
application on coarse textured soils or areas with a high water table.
Toxicity
Ingestion: Slightly toxic. Acute oral LD
50
(
rat) = 1,000 mg/kg. Dermal: Slightly toxic. Non-toxic to fish and bees.
Storage
Heated storage preferred. If frozen, shake thoroughly before use.

Some short-term, visual yellowing may occur when Eclipse III tank mix is applied at the late application 4 to 6 leaf stage of the crop. This effect is
temporary and will not influence crop growth, maturity or yield.
One case will treat 40 acres.
