Fluroxypyr Conversion Chart (333g/L to 400g/L)

Oils And Surfactants:

Oils

• Use an appropriate crop oil/surfactant adjuvant at the rate of 500 mL/100 L of spray mix.
• When using less than 100 L/ha spray volume, ensure a minimum of 250 mL/ha of this adjuvant is used, unless 1L/100 L or 1 L/ha is specified.

Surfactants (Wetters)

• Use a 1000g/L non-ionic surfactant at 100 mL/100 L of spray mix where required.

Restraints:

• Do not apply to plants that may be stressed (not actively growing) due to prolonged periods of extreme cold, moisture stress (water-logged or drought-affected), poor nutrition, presence of disease, or previous herbicide treatment as reduced levels of control may result.
• Thorough coverage of both foliage and stems, to the point of runoff, is essential for high-volume applications (see General Instructions; application methods Woody Weed Situations section).
• Do not spray if rain is likely to occur within one hour.

Protection Of Crops, Native And Other Non-Target Plants

• Susceptible crops include but are not limited to clovers, cotton, fruit, hops, lupins, ornamentals, peas, pine trees, potatoes, navy beans, safflower, shade trees, soybeans, sunflower, tobacco, tomatoes, vegetables and vines.
• Sabakem Fluroxypyr 400 can be damaging to susceptible crops during both growing and dormant periods.
• Grasses are normally unaffected by Sabakem Fluroxypyr 400 and establish quickly after treatment.
• Transitory damage can occur on some species, particularly those spread by stolons such as cough grass (Cynodon dactylon), Kikuyu grass and carpet grass (Axonopus sp.)
• Do not allow spray to drift onto susceptible crops, shade trees and Pinus spp.
• Do not use under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that could cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants.

Protection Of Livestock

• Do not graze or cut treated crops for stock food except as specified under withholding periods.
• Poisonous plants may become more palatable after spraying.
• Do not allow the stock to re-enter paddocks containing treated poisonous plants until the plants have died down.

Protection Of Wildlife, Fish, Crustaceans And the Environment

• Do not contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers.
• Alongside waterways, treat only noxious weeds and poisonous plants.
