SMALL GRAINS: WHEAT, OATS, BARLEY AND RYE
Apply as a water mix spray by ground sprayer or airplane. Use 1/2 to 1 pint per acre for the more susceptible weeds after crop has reached the 3-to 4-leaf stage up to boot stage. Use up to 12/3 pints per acre for less susceptible weeds after crop has tillered and up to early boot stage. Do not spray from boot to dough stage. For small grains underseeded with legumes, see the following paragraph. Underseeded with Alfalfa, Lespedeza, Red and White Clover: For emergency control of serious infestations of Mustard, Yellow Rocket and other susceptible broadleaf weeds, apply 1/4 to 1/2 pint in not more than 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre. Make application after cereal is well tillered (4 to 8 inches tall) and before reaching boot stage. The nurse crop and weeds should provide a protecting canopy which, together with the use of low gallonage applied at low pressure, will reduce the risk of damage to the legumes. Do not apply to small grains underseeded with Vetch or Sweet Clover, which are very susceptible. There is also some risk to other legumes if only thinly protected by a canopy.
• Do not forage or graze meat animals on treated areas within 7 days of slaughter.
• Do not apply more than 12/3 pints (0.75 lb acid equivalent) per acre per year
ESTABLISHED GRASSLAND AND PASTURES
Use 1 to 3 pints per acre in sufficient water (10 to 100 gallons) in airplane or ground sprayer application and give thorough coverage. Use higher rate for White Top, Canada Thistle and other less easyto-kill weeds; spray perennials in early bud to full bloom stage and regrowth in fall. Spray other weeds in spring or fall.
• Do not forage or graze meat animals on treated areas within 7 days of slaughter.
• Do not forage or graze dairy animals on treated areas within 7 days after treatment.
• Do not apply more than 3 pints (1.5 lb acid equivalent) per acre per year.
• Do not apply more than 2 applications per year with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days.
GRASSES GROWN FOR SEED
Use 1 to 2 pints per acre in sufficient water to give adequate coverage. Use higher rate where weed stands are heavy. In established grasses, apply in spring before head comes into boot and on seedling grass after grass has tillered. NOTE: In weed control in grasses, repeat treatment may be needed for less susceptible weeds. White Clover and other legumes may be temporarily injured or killed. In some areas, Bent, Buffalo, Carpet and St. Augustine grasses may also be injured by the treatment.
• Do not apply more than 3 pints (1.5 lb acid equivalent) per acre per year.
• Do not apply more than 2 applications per year with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days.
RANGELAND
For control of Whitebrush—Use 2½ pints in a mixture of 1 gallon of diesel oil and sufficient water to make 8 gallons of solution per acre. Apply in spring or fall under good moisture conditions, full leaf, before blossoms begin to fall.
• Do not apply more than 3 pints (1.5 lb acid equivalent) per acre per year.
• Do not apply more than 2 applications per year with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days.
GRASS CUT FOR HAY
(Not for Use in California) Use 1 to 4 pints per acre in sufficient water (3 to 5 gallons) by airplane or (10 to 100 gallons) by ground sprayer application to provide thorough coverage. Use the higher application rate for White top, Canada thistle and other hard-to-kill weeds: spray perennials in early bud to full bloom stage and regrowth in fall. Other weeds in spring or fall.
PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS When using on Grass Cut for Hay there is a:
• 7-day pre-grazing interval for dairy cattle;
• 3-day pre-slaughter interval for meat animals
GOLF COURSES
For controlling whitetop, dandelions and similar weeds, apply 1 to 2 pints per acre in sufficient water to provide thorough coverage. Treatment may reduce stands of clover which may be present. Do not apply to newly seeded turf until grass has become well established. MCPA may injure bent or other creeping grass types. For best result treat thistles when in the early bud stage.
• Do not apply more than 3 pints (1.5 lb acid equivalent) per acre per year.
• Do not apply more than 2 applications per year with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days
SOD FARMS
For broadcast application, apply 1 to 3 pints per acre in a spray volume of 10 to 100 gallons of water. Use the higher rate for heavy infestations or less susceptible weed species. For best results, apply in spring or fall when weeds are rapidly growing and do not mow for 2 days before or after application. For spot treatment in small areas, use 1 fluid ounce per 1000 square feet in 1 to 3 gallons of spray and apply uniformly. NOTE: Repeat applications may be required for less susceptible weeds. In some areas, bent, buffalo, carpet and St. Augustine grasses may also be injured.
• Do not apply more than 3 pints (1.5 lb acid equivalent) per acre per year.
• Do not apply more than 2 applications per year with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days.
