In pinto, pink, great northern and small red beans:
Assure II (0.20 - 0.30 L/acre) + Basagran (0.70 - 0.91 L/acre) + Sure Mix or Merge (0.5% v/v)
E.I.Dupont supports the following mixes that are not on the Assure II label. Apply mixes according to the most

Application Information
Water Volume
:
Ground: Minimum of 40 L/acre. Up to 162 L/acre of water may be used under heavy populations
to improve coverage. Air: 10 20 L/acre.
Application Tips
How it Works
:
Assure II is a systemic herbicide that is rapidly absorbed and readily translocated from the treated
foliage to the root systems and growing points of treated plants.
Expected Results
Grassy weeds show a reduction in growth and a loss of competitiveness. An early yellowing or browning of the
younger plant tissues is followed by a progressive collapse of the remaining foliage. These results will generally be
observed in 1 - 3 weeks, depending on the grass species treated and the environmental conditions. Poor results may
be expected if there is improper mixing, timing or coverage, or when weeds are under stress.
Rainfall
:
Rainfall within 1 hour of application may reduce control.
Restrictions
Re-cropping
:
No restrictions the year after application.
Grazing restrictions
:
Do not graze treated fields or harvest for forage or hay.
Pre-harvest Intervals
:
Do not apply to canola within 64 days of harvest. Do not apply to chickpeas within 85 days
of harvest. Do not apply to flax within 82 days of harvest. Do not apply to lentils or peas (field and processing)
within 65 days of harvest. Do not apply to beans within 30 days of harvest if used alone, 65 days if used in a tank
mix with Basagran. Do not apply to soybeans within 80 days of harvest.
Environmental Precautions
Assure II is toxic to fish. Overspray or drift to fish-bearing water must be avoided. Overspray or drift to important
wildlife habitats such a shelterbelts, wetlands, sloughs or dry slough borders and woodlots should be avoided. Leave
a 15-metre buffer zone between the last spray swath and the edge of any of these habitats.
Toxicity
Very low acute mammalian toxicity. Acute oral LD
50
(
rats) >5,000 mg/kg. May irritate eyes, nose, throat and skin.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place not below 5°C.
