How it Works
Absorbed through foliage. Inhibits cell elongation. Causes stem elongation, leaf cupping or curling.
Expected Results
Growth stops immediately. Discoloration of dying weeds may not be noticeable for 1 - 3 weeks after application,
depending on growing conditions and weed species. Poor results may be expected if there is improper mixing,
timing, coverage or when weeds are under drought stress.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
Rainfall within 1 hour of application may reduce weed control.
Grazing
:
May not be grazed or fed to livestock within 7 days of application.
Pre-harvest Intervals
:
Allow 60 days between application and harvest.
Recropping
:
Barley, canola, flax, forage grasses, lentils, mustard, oats, peas, rye or wheat can be seeded 10 months
after application.
Environmental Precautions
Overspray or drift to important wildlife habitats, such as ponds, wetlands, streams, woodlots and shelterbelts, should
be avoided. A 15 metre buffer zone should be established between the area to be sprayed and aquatic environments
or terrestrial habitats listed above. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters. Do not
contaminate irrigation ditches or water used for domestic purposes.
Runoff
:
Avoid runoff by using recommended buffer zones.
