Weeds, Rates and Staging
Annual weeds
Apply: 1.0 L/acre rate, any time between emergence and heading for annual
grasses and when broadleaf weeds are up to 15 cm tall and actively growing
Perennial grasses
Apply: 1.26 L/acre, apply before the
initiation of seed head or browning of
lower leaves
downy brome*
green foxtail
persian darnel
volunteer cereals
wild oats
cow cockle
flixweed**
kochia
lamb’s-quarters
redroot pigweed
Russian thistle
smartweed (including lady’s-thumb)
stinkweed**
volunteer canola (excluding Roundup Ready)
wild mustard
foxtail barley (suppression)
Use higher rate when weeds are under
stress and poor growing conditions such
as drought
*
For best control of downy brome, Rustler/Takkle can be applied after emergence in the fall previous to the fallow season or in spring of the fallow
season up to seed head emergence.
**
For best control of winter annual broadleaf weeds, such as flixweed and stinkweed, 2,4-D should be applied to emerged, actively growing weeds in
the fall previous to the fallow season or in early spring in the fallow season when winter annual weeds are less than 10 cm tall.

Application Information
Apply with ground equipment only. Avoid galvanized steel or unlined steel (except stainless steel) spray tanks. Water
volume: 20 - 40 L/acre clean water.
Application Tips
Under certain stress conditions such as drought, cool temperatures or where extremely hard water (>700 ppm
Ca + Mg) has been used, weed control may be reduced with this product. Under these conditions, lower water
volume (20 L/acre) may improve results.
How it Works
A post-emergent herbicide. Glyphosate moves from foliage into roots and kills entire plant. Banvel disrupts cell
metabolism.
Expected Results
Visual effects will usually appear within 5 - 7 days. Wilting or yellowing of weeds advances to complete browning of
above ground growth and deterioration of affected underground parts.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
Heavy rainfall within 2 hours may wash the chemical off the foliage and repeat treatment may be required.
Rainfall within 6 hours may reduce effectiveness.
Grazing
:
Do not permit lactating dairy animals to graze fields within 7 days after application. Do not harvest
forage or cut hay within 30 days after application. Withdraw meat animals from treated fields at least 3 days before
slaughter.
Re-cropping
:
Certain broadleaf crops such as lentils, peas, canola and flax can be injured by a preseeding application
of Rustler/Takkle and should not be planted in a field that has been treated with this product.
