Suppression
**
A recent survey of kochia fields has found 90% of kochia populations that are Group 2 herbicide resistant. Without testing to confirm, assume the
kochia in your field is resistant and will not be controlled by this product alone.
Note: Addition of recommended surfactant (Ag-Surf, Agral 90, Citowett, Companion or Super Spreader): 0.1% v/v may improve control of weeds growing
under adverse conditions.

Telar: 48 g/acre + Krovar: 2.75 - 3.6 kg/acre +
Non-ionic surfactant: 1% v/v.
Apply when weeds are small (less than 10 cm
tall)
Application Information
With
:
Ground equipment only. Do not apply by air.
Water volume
:
Not less than 40 L/acre. Spray volumes of 80 - 160 L/acre are recommended.
Application Tips
Select a spray volume that will ensure thorough coverage and uniform spray pattern. Best results are obtained when
weeds are actively growing.
How it Works
Absorbed through the roots and foliage. Inhibits cell elongation.
Expected Results
Telar rapidly inhibits growth of susceptible weeds. Typical symptoms (discolouration) of dying weeds may not be
noticeable for 1 - 3 weeks after application depending on growing conditions and weed susceptibility. Degree of
control and duration of effect depend on the following factors: rate used, weed sensitivity and weed size, growing
conditions at and following treatment, precipitation, soil organic matter and pH.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
Rainfall within 2 hours may lessen degree of weed control. For best results, sufficient rainfall to move Telar
5 - 7
cm deep into the soil is required after application before weeds develop an established root system and grow
beyond the seedling stage.
Environmental Precautions
Telar is toxic to aquatic organisms and non-target terrestrial plants. Observe buffer zones specified under Directions
for Use on the label.
Runoff
:
To reduce runoff from treated areas into aquatic habitats, avoid application to areas with a moderate to steep
slope, compacted soil, or clay. Avoid application when heavy rain is forecast.
Toxicity
Slightly acutely toxic. Acute Oral LD
50
(
rats) = 3,053 mg/kg. Slightly to moderately toxic by contact.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place.
