- General Information
Orion Glyphosate 360 is a non-selective herbicide for use in agriculture and horticulture: • Before planting crops and trees • In pasture renovation and reduced tillage systems • For pre-harvest weed control • In vineyards, orchards and market gardens • On turf and recreational areas • In drains and waterways Orion Glyphosate 360 is absorbed by green plant tissue, and is translocated throughout the plant, including the root system, to kill the entire plant. Plants should be actively growing, not under drought stress, and have clean foliage at the time of spraying. The product degrades in the soil and has no residual weed control activity. Do not apply when rain is likely to occur within 6 hours of application. Visible effects may not be apparent for 14 days depending on weather conditions, weed species and rate of application. Some perennial weeds may not show effects for 2 - 3 weeks.

Boom equipment: Application can be made in spray volumes up to 200 liters/ha using fan nozzles at pressures in the range of 200 – 280 kPa. Boom height should be set so that a double overlap of nozzle pattern is achieved at the top of the target plants. Aerial equipment: Applicable to forest and non-crop areas only. Can be applied by aircraft in spray volumes of up to 100 liters/ha. Increase spray volumes in hilly terrain to ensure maximum target contact. Do not use in intensive horticultural cropping areas. Handgun and Knapsack: Ensure a fine spray pattern to give complete coverage. For handguns, use pressures of 1000 – 2000 kPa and No. 4 to No. 6 spray tips. Wiper Equipment: Pre-mix 1 part Orion Glyphosate 360 in 2 parts clean water to make a 33% solution. Mix only enough for immediate use. Plants must be clean and dry and the wiper fully saturated. Apply up and down slopes for effective applications. Mist Blower: Refer to table.

Fill the clean spray tank with half the required amount of clean water. Add Orion Glyphosate 360 as required and mix well before adding the remaining water. If surfactant is required, add this last to minimize foaming. Agitate well before spraying. When tank-mixing with other chemicals, add Orion Glyphosate 360 after suspension concentrates, such as Simatop™ 500FW (simazine), and other water-soluble concentrates. Soil particles and hard water containing calcium salts deactivate Orion Glyphosate 360. If hard water cannot be avoided, the addition of a surfactant such as a pH Buffer is recommended.
- Withholding Periods
It is an offense for users of this product to cause residues exceeding the relevant MRL in the Food Notice: Maximum Residue Levels for Agricultural Compounds. Poisonous plants, such as ragwort, may become more palatable to stock after spraying, and livestock should be kept away until plants have died down. Otherwise, withholding is not required for stock grazing. However, it is recommended that grazing is delayed for one day for annual weeds, and three days for perennial weeds. This will allow Orion Glyphosate 360 to penetrate the weeds for maximum effectiveness.
- Weed Control Notes
Agricultural Areas: May be used for the control of annual and perennial weeds as indicated in the Weeds Controlled Table prior to sowing any crop. Asparagus: Pre-crop emergence and post-harvest applications. Apply prior to planting or crop emergence. Do not treat emerging spears. Application can also be made after removal of all spears but before crop regrowth occurs. In established ferns, apply as a directed or shielded spray or with wiper equipment. Do not allow spray, spray drift or the wiper surface to contact any part of the asparagus plant. Broad-acre Crops: Wheat, barley, oats and threshing peas. Can be used to control weeds prior to cultivation or prior to harvest. Spray 7-12 days prior to harvest when the grain moisture is less than 30%. Do not harvest within 7 days after spraying. Do not spray undersown crops. Do not spray crops that will be harvested for seed. For threshing peas: Apply 7-14 days prior to harvest when the pods have dried. Avoid treating plants under drought stress. Brushweeds: Refer to table. The use of a surfactant such as Silmaxx™ is recommended. Drains and Waterways: For best results ensure that 75% of the weed to be sprayed is above water level. Avoid treating silt-laden weeds. Following spraying do not submerge the weed, as this will cause the herbicide to be washed off. Forestry: For the control of grasses and weeds as listed in the Weeds Controlled Table. Can be applied for weed control prior to burning or planting of forest or nursery or around already established trees. Do not allow spray drift or spray contact with foliage or green bark of desirable trees. Industrial and Non-Agricultural Areas: Treat specific problem weeds as indicated in the Weeds Controlled Table. Do not allow spray drift. Market Gardens: Apply before or after seeding but prior to crop emergence. Spraying can also be made prior to transplanting or as a post-harvest clean up. For longer-term control of seedling weeds it may be tank mixed with an approved residual herbicide such as Simatop™ 500FW (simazine) in accordance with label recommendations. Minimum Tillage: For total weed control prior to seeding in a reduced tillage system. Weeds should be actively growing and not under stress from frost, drought or waterlogging. For the improved control of white clover, tank mix with Bandit® (dicamba) at 625 mls/ha, or TillMate™. Do not plant legume crops within 28 days of applying dicamba. If using with TillMate - Do not sow crops within 14 days of application, or sow brassicas if the soil pH exceeds 6.5, or use within 2 months after applying lime. Consult partner product label for further directions. Cultivation may start from 3 days after spraying annual weeds, and 7 days after spraying perennial weeds. Cultivation should occur within 21 days after spraying. Do not sow until a satisfactory seedbed is formed. Orchards/Vines: Crops: Citrus, apple, pear, stonefruit, kiwifruit, grapes. Apply as a directed or shielded spray. For long term control of annual weeds Orion Glyphosate 360 may be tank mixed with an approved herbicide for residual control. Do not apply near unprotected trees less than 3 years old. Do not allow spray or spray drift to contact any part of the stonefruit tree, or green bark, suckers, buds, foliage or fruit of other trees. Spray before crops bud, sucker or bloom. Pasture: May be applied as a spot application to control a wide range of weeds in pasture. It is nonselective and may damage or kill any plant in the spray area. Recreational Areas: Lawns, turf, parks, reserves and ornamentals. Apply before the sowing and planting of these areas, or use as a spot application. In mown areas, allow sufficient regrowth before spraying. Can also be sprayed around the base of established trees or shrubs, as a directed or shielded spray. Avoid contact with any part of the shrub or tree.
- Resistance Management
GROUP G HERBICIDE
Orion Glyphosate 360 contains glyphosate, a group G herbicide belonging to the glycine chemical family, and having the EPSP synthase mode of action. Some naturally occurring weeds may become resistant when excessive use of the same herbicide occurs. To prevent or delay the development of resistance, use in tank mixes and/or rotate use with herbicides with a different mode of action. Consult http:// resistance.nzpps.org/index.php for alternative modes of action and details of resistance management strategies (if any) for the crops listed on the label.
