Features & Benefits

Product Highlights

Reckon 280SL is a water-soluble herbicide for application as a foliar spray for the control of a broad spectrum of emerged annual and perennial grass and broadleaf weeds in LibertyLink® canola, corn, cotton and soybean, and in trees, vines and berries. Reckon 280SL may also be applied for potato vine desiccation. Reckon 280SL may also be applied as a broadcast burndown application before planting or prior to emergence of any variety of canola, corn, sweet corn*, cotton, olive, soybean or sugar beet.

Reckon 280SL is only foliar-active with little or no activity in soil. Weeds that emerge after application will not be controlled. Apply Reckon 280SL to actively growing weeds as described in the Weed Control for Row Crops section to get maximum weed control. Uniform, thorough spray coverage is necessary to achieve consistent weed control. Necrosis of leaves and young shoots occur within 2 to 4 days after application under good growing conditions.

  • Reckon 280SL is rainfast four (4) hours after application to most weed species; therefore, rainfall within four (4) hours may necessitate retreatment or may result is reduced weed control.
  • Applications must be made between dawn and 2 hours before sunset to avoid the possibility of reduced lambsquarters palmer amaranth and velvetleaf control.
  • Consult your local Cooperative Extension Service or Solera ATO Representative for guidelines on the optimum application timing for Reckon 280SL in your region.
  • Weed control may be reduced if application is made when heavy dew, fog and mist/rain are present; or when weeds are under stress due to environmental conditions such as drought, cool temperatures or extended periods of cloudiness.
  • Warm temperatures, high humidity and bright sunlight improve the performance of Reckon 280SL.
  • Reckon 280SL is a foliar-active material with little or no soil-residual activity.
  • To maximize weed control, do not cultivate from 5 days before an application to 7 days after an application.

Applications & Uses

Directions For Use

Do not use this product until you have read the entire label. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

Application and Mixing Procedure

Do not use flood jet nozzles, controlled droplet application equipment or air-assisted spray equipment. Uniform thorough spray coverage is important to achieve consistent weed control.

Compatibility Testing

If Reckon 280SL is to be mixed with pesticide products not listed on this label, test the compatibility of the intended tank mixture prior to mixing the products in the spray tank. The following procedure assumes a spray volume of 25 gallons per acre. For other spray volumes, adjust the amount of the water used accordingly.
Check compatibility as follows:

  • Place 1.0 pint of water from the source that will be used to prepare the spray solution in a clear 1-quart jar.
  • For each pound of a dry tank mix partner to be applied per acre, add 1.5 teaspoons to the jar.
  • For each 16 fl oz of a liquid tank mix partner to be applied per acre, add 0.5 teaspoon to the jar.
  • For each 16 fl oz of Reckon 280SL to be applied per acre, add 0.5 teaspoon to the jar.
  • After adding all the ingredients, place a lid on the jar and tighten. Invert 10 times to mix.
  • Let the mixture stand for 15 minutes, and evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. Look for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the jar, or other signs of incompatibility. If the tank mix partners are not compatible, do not use the mixture in a spray tank.
  •  After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance with the Storage and Disposal section of this label.
Mixing Instructions

Tank Mix: Reckon 280SL may be applied in tank mix combinations with labeled rates of other products provided these other products are labeled for the timing and method of application for the crop to be treated. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Reckon 280SL cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing. Refer to the specific crop section for rate directions and other restrictions.
Reckon 280SL must be applied with properly calibrated and clean equipment. Reckon 280SL is formulated to mix readily in water. Prior to adding Reckon 280SL to the spray tank, ensure that the spray tank is thoroughly clean, particularly if a herbicide with the potential to injure crops was previously used (see Cleaning Instructions).
Mix Reckon 280SL with water to make a finished spray solution as follows:

  • Fill the spray tank half full with water.
  • Start agitation.
  • If mixing with a flowable/wettable powder tank mix partner. Prepare a slurry of the proper amount of the product in a small amount of water. Add the slurry to the spray tank.
  • Add the appropriate amount of ammonium sulfate (AMS) to the spray tank.
  • If mixing with a liquid tank mix partner, add the liquid mix partner next.
  • Complete filling the spray tank with water.
  • Add the proper amount of Reckon 280SL and continue agitation.
  • If foaming occurs, use a silicone-based antifoam agent.

Ensure that all spray system lines including pipes, booms, etc. have the correct concentration of spray solution by flushing out the spray system lines before starting the crop application.

If tank mix partners specified on this label are added, maintain good agitation at all times until contents of the tank are sprayed. If the spray mixture is allowed to settle, thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before spraying is resumed. Keep bypass line on or near bottom of tank to minimize foaming. Screen size in nozzles or line strainers must be 50 mesh or larger.

Cleaning Instructions

Before using Reckon 280SL, thoroughly clean bulk storage tank, refillable tank, nurse tanks, spray tank, lines, and filter, particularly if a herbicide with the potential to injure crops was previously used. Equipment must be thoroughly rinsed using a commercial tank cleaner.

After using Reckon 280SL, triple rinse the spray equipment and clean with a commercial tank cleaner before using for crops not labeled LibertyLink®. Make sure any rinsate or foam is thoroughly removed from spray tank and boom. Rinsate may be disposed following the pesticide disposal directions on this label.

Reckon 280SL may be applied as a burndown treatment prior to planting or prior to emergence of any variety of canola, corn, sweet corn, cotton, soybean, or sugar beet.

 

Application Timing

Apply to small and actively growing weeds, targeting weeds less than 3 inches in height. For additional information on weed heights refer to the weed control for row crops section.

Warm temperatures, high humidity, and bright sunlight improve the performance of reckon 280sl. Weed control may be reduced when applications are made when heavy dew, fog and mist/rain are present or when weeds are under stress due to drought, cool temperatures or extended periods of cloudiness. Reckon 280sl is a foliar-active material with little or no soil-residual activity. Reckon 280sl is rainfast 4 hours after application, therefore, rainfall within 4 hours may necessitate retreatment. For best results on lambsquarters, palmer amaranth and velvetleaf control, make applications of reckon between dawn and 2 hours before sunset.

Application Rates

Apply 29 to 43 fl oz/A (0.53 to 0.79 lbs ai/A) depending on crop, weed species and intention of post application use.
Use a minimum spray volume of 15 gallons per acre, unless there is a difficult to control situation (such as dense canopy, large weeds or unfavorable growing conditions are present). In difficult to control situations use a minimum spray volume of 20 gallons per acre.

  • Cotton, if environmental conditions prevent timely applications, a single application may be made of up to 43 fluid ounces per acre (0.79 lb ai/A) of Reckon 280SL. If more than 29 fluid ounces per acre (0.53 lb ai/A) are used in any single application, the annual total may not exceed 72 fluid ounces per acre (1.32 lbs ai/A), including all application timings.
  • In canola, corn (sweet and field) and soybean, if environmental conditions prevent timely applications, a single application may be made of up to 43 fluid ounces per acre (0.79 lb ai/A) of Reckon 280SL. The year total may not exceed 43.0 fluid ounces per acre (0.79 lb ai/A) including all application timings.
  • In sugar beets, if environmental conditions prevent timely applications, a single application may be made of up to 36 fluid ounces per acre (0.66 lb ai/A) of Reckon 280SL. No additional applications of Reckon 280SL may be made post emergence to the crop during the year.
