Features & Benefits

General Information

ATRAZINE 4L Herbicide will control most annual Broadleaf and Grass weeds in Corn, Sorghum, Sugarcane and certain other crops as specified on this label. This product may be applied before or after weeds emerge.

In each case where a range of rates is given, the lower rate should be used on Coarse textured soil and soil low in organic matter and the higher rate should be used on Fine textured soil and soil high in organic matter.

Since this product acts mainly through root absorption, its effective-ness depends on rainfall or irrigation to move it into the root zone. Should weeds develop, a shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing will gen-erally result in better weed control.

This product is non-corrosive to equipment and metal surfaces, non-flammable and has low electrical conductivity. Care should be taken to avoid using this product near adjacent desirable plants or in green-houses, or injury may occur.

To avoid spray drift, do not apply under windy conditions. Avoid spray overlap, as crop injury may result.

Note: The Seller does not recommend the use of this product in com-bination with other herbicides or oils except as specifically described on the label or in literature published by the Seller.FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL USE PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRIC-TIONS ON THIS LABEL MAY RESULT IN POOR WEED CONTROL, CROP INJURY OR ILLEGAL RESIDUE.

Applications & Uses

Herbicide Target Species
Mixing Procedures

1. Be sure sprayer is clean and not contaminated with any other materials or crop injury or sprayer clogging may result.

2. Fill tank one-fourth full with clean water, nitrogen solution or com-plete liquid fertilizer.

3. Start agitation.

4. Be certain that the agitation system is working properly and cre-ates a rippling or rolling action on the liquid surface.

5. Pour product directly from container into tank.

6. Continue filling tank until 90% full. Increase agitation, if neces-sary, to maintain surface action

7. Add emulsifiable oil, oil concentrate or tank-mix herbicide(s) after this product is thoroughly suspended.

8. Finish filling tank.

9. Empty tank as completely as possible before refilling to prevent buildup of oil or emulsifiable concentrate residue. Maintain agita-tion to avoid separation of materials.

10. If an oil or emulsifiable concentrate film starts to build up in tank, drain it and clean with strong detergent solution or solvent.

11. Clean sprayer thoroughly immediately after use by flushing sys-tem with water containing a detergent.

Application Procedures

GROUND APPLICATION: Use conventional ground sprayers equipped with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application. Be certain that nozzles are uniformly spaced and are the same size. Calibrate sprayer before use and recalibrate at the start of each sea-son and when changing carriers. Unless otherwise specified, use a minimum of 10 gallons of spray mixture per acre for all pre-plant in-corporated, pre-plant surface, pre-emergence and post-emergence applications (with or without oil or surfactant) with ground equipment. Use a pump with capacity to:

1. Maintain 35 to 40 psi at nozzles.

2. Provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension.

3. Provide a minimum of 20% bypass at all times.

Use centrifugal pumps which provide propeller shear action for dis-persing and mixing this product. The pump should provide a minimum of 10 gallons per minute per 100 gallon tank size circulated through a correctly positioned sparger tube or jets. Use screens to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging. Screens placed on the suction side of the pump should be 16 mesh or coarser. Do not place a screen in the recirculation line. Use 50 mesh or coarser screens be-tween the pump and boom and where required, at the nozzles. Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations.

For band applications, calculate the amount to be applied per acre as follows:


AERIAL APPLICATION: Use aerial application only where broadcast applications are specified. Apply in a minimum of 1 quart of water for each quart of this product applied per acre. For post-emergence treatments on Corn and Sorghum, apply recommended rate in a min-imum of 2 gallons of water per acre. Avoid applications under condi-tions where uniform coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur. Avoid application to humans or animals. Flagmen and loaders should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.

THIS PRODUCT IN WATER OR LIQUID FERTILIZER APPLICATIONS ; Nitrogen solutions or complete liquid fertilizers may replace all or part of the water as a carrier for pre-emergence and pre-plant applications of this product on Corn and Sorghum. Check the compatibility of this product with liquid fertilizer and/or nitrogen solution as shown below before use. Do not apply in nitrogen solution or complete liquid fertiliz-er after Corn or Sorghum emerges, or crop injury may occur.

Compatibility Test: Since liquid fertilizers can vary, even within the same analysis, always check compatibility with herbicide(s) each time before use. Be especially careful when using complete suspension or fluid fertilizers as serious compatibility problems are more likely to occur. Commercial application equipment may improve compatibility in some instances. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gallons per acre. For other spray volumes, make appropriate changes in the ingredients.

Check compatibility using this procedure:

1. Add 1 pint of fertilizer to each of 2 one-quart jars with tight lids.

2. To one of the jars, add 0.25 teaspoon or 1.2 milliliters of a com-patibility agent approved for this use, such as MIX™, Compex® or Unite® (0.25 teaspoon is equivalent to 2 pints per 100 gallons of spray). Shake or stir gently to mix.

3. To both jars add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more than one herbicide is used, add them separately with dry herbi-cides first, flowables next and emulsifiable concentrates last. After each addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix. The appropri-ate amount of herbicides for this test follows:Dry Herbicides: For each pound to be applied per acre, add 1.5 level teaspoons to each jar.Liquid Herbicides: For each pint to be applied per acre, add 0.5 teaspoon or 2.5 milliliters to each jar.

4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten and invert each jar ten times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15 minutes and then look for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the jar or other signs of incompatibility.Determine if the compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by comparing the two jars. If either mixture separates, but can be remixed readily, the mixture can be sprayed as long as good ag itation is used. If the mixtures are incompatible, test the following methods of improving compatibility: A) Slurry the dry herbicide(s) in water before addition, or B) Add half of the compatibility agent to the fertilizer and the other half of the emulsifiable concentrate or flowable herbicide before addition to the mixture. If incompatibility is still observed, do not use the mixture.

Oper-ations that involve mixing, loading, rinsing or washing of this product into or from pesticide handling or application equipment or containers within 50 feet of any well are prohibited, unless conducted on an im-pervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be positioned on or moved across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained to contain any product spill or equipment leaks, container or equipment rinse or washwater and rainwater that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The pad shall be sloped to facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient capacity to contain at a minimum 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equip-ment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient size to completely exclude precipitation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum containment capacity of 100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. Containment capacities as described above shall be maintained at all times. The above-specified minimum containment capacities do not apply to vehicles when delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading sites. Additional State imposed requirements regarding well-head setbacks and operational area containment must be observed.This pesticide is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not apply when weather condi-tions favor drift from treated areas. Runoff and drift from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water.
