- General Information
ACTION® Herbicide is a selective herbicide. GENERAL RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. Do not make more than two applications per acre per season. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND BIOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE Do not apply ACTION when the crop or weeds are under stress due to drought, excessive water, extremes in temperature, disease or low humidity. ACTION is most effective when applied under sunny conditions at temperatures above 70o F. RAINFASTNESS ACTION is rainfast one hour after application. Applications should not be made if rain is expected within one hour of application or efficacy may be reduced. JAR TEST TO DETERMINE COMPATIBILITY OF ADJUVANTS AND ACTION A jar test should be performed before mixing commercial quantities of ACTION when using ACTION for the first time, when using new adjuvants, or when a new water source is being used. 1. Add 1 pt. of the water to a quart jar. The water should be from the same source and temperature as will be used in the spray tank mixing operation. 2. Add 1 ml of ACTION to the quart jar, gently mix until product dissipates. 3. Add 6 ml (1 tsp.) of the crop oil concentrate or methylated seed oil to the quart jar, gently mix. If a nonionic surfactant is being used in a tank mix, add 2.5 ml (0.3 tsp.) of the non-ionic surfactant in place of the oil. 4. If nitrogen is being used, add 16 ml (1 tbsp. or 0.5 oz.) of the 28 to 32% nitrogen source to the quart jar. If ammonium sulfate is being used, add 19 gms AMS to the quart jar in place of the 28 to 32% nitrogen. Ammonium sulfate should be added to the jar before the ACTION in step 2. 5. Place cap on jar, invert 10 times, let stand for 15 minutes, evaluate. 6. An ideal tank mix combination will be uniform and free of suspended particles. If any of the following conditions are observed the choice of adjuvant should be questioned: a) Layer of oil or globules on the mixture's surface. b) Flocculation: fine particles in suspension or as a layer on the bottom of the jar. c) Clabbering: Thickening texture (coagulated) like gelatin.

- Directions for USe
• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. USE RESTRICTIONS FOR ACTION APPLIED TO COTTON • As a broadcast treatment, do not apply more than 8 fl. oz/A of ACTION in a single application or more than a total of 14 fl. oz./A to cotton in a single growing season. • Do not apply ACTION if rain is expected within 1 hour of application. • Do not graze animals on green forage or use as feed fewer than 28 days after ACTION application. GROUND APPLICATION Apply ACTION and ACTION tank mixes with ground equipment using standard commercial sprayers. Thorough coverage is required for optimum burndown or defoliation. Special attention should be given to preparing and operating the spray equipment to assure proper coverage of cotton leaf surfaces when using ACTION. Avoid the use of air induction nozzles. Use ACTION on a broadcast basis in a minimum of 10 gals. of water per acre and a spray pressure of 40 to 50 PSI measured at the spray nozzle. For best results, use a minimum of 15 to 20 GPA of water and a spray pressure of 50 PSI, measured at the nozzle if cotton density is moderate to heavy.
Safety & Health
- Precautions
WARNING: Causes substantial but temporary eye injury. Causes skin irritation. Harmful if swallowed or absorbed through the skin. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE): Some materials that are chemical-resistant to this product are listed below. If you want more options, follow the instructions for category G on an EPA chemical resistance category selection chart. Applicators and other handlers must wear: coveralls worn over short-sleeved shirt and short pants, chemicalresistant gloves such as barrier laminate or viton > 14 mils, chemical-resistant footwear plus socks, and protective eyewear. Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product's concentrate. Do not reuse them. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS. USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS Users should: • Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. • Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside.
