2,4-D Amine 300 Herbicide

Tips For Use

Restraints:

• Do not spray if rain seems likely within 6 hours or if strong winds prevail.
• Do not apply if crops or weeds are stressed due to dry or excessively moist conditions.

General Instructions:

• Amine 300 Selective Herbicide is a water-soluble liquid product with non-selective herbicidal activity against broadleaf weeds.
• Amine 300 Selective Herbicide will control emerged weeds only and provides no residual control, although certain plant back periods should be observed.
• Amine 300 Selective Herbicide is absorbed by plant foliage. It accumulates to toxic levels in the regions of growth and reproduction, upsetting the ability of plants to balance the synthesis and use of nutrients. Visible effects are a gradual yellowing and wilting of the plants, which advances to complete browning of above-ground growth and deterioration of root systems. Effects may not be apparent for 7 -10 days or even up to 21 days under cold or cloudy conditions.
• Do not treat weeds under poor growing or dormant conditions such as occur in drought, water-logging disease, insect damage, following frost, and weeds heavily covered with dust or silt. Reduced results may also occur if weeds are stressed from previous herbicide applications.
• Rainfall occurring up to 6 hours after application may reduce effectiveness.
• Do not spray if strong winds prevail.

Surfactant Addition:

• Do not add a surfactant except in conservation tillage where the product is to be tank mixed with products Glyphosate 360 or 450 herbicide.  In this situation always add Wetter 1000 non-ionic surfactant in accordance with label directions on the glyphosate product.
• Do not mix with spraying oils or any other materials or agricultural chemicals except as directed on this label.

Mixing Instructions:

Amine 300 Selective Herbicide mixes readily with water. Ensure the spray tank is free of any residue of previous spray materials.

1. Fill the spray tank with clean water to one-half of the required amount and start agitation. Do not use mechanical agitators, as these may cause excessive foaming when herbicides are added.
2. Add the recommended herbicide additive/insecticide to the spray tank and mix thoroughly.
3. Add Amine 300 Selective Herbicide and mix thoroughly.
4. Add Glyphosate 450 Herbicide.
5. When Wetter 1000 non-ionic surfactant is used, add it near the end of the filling process to minimise foaming.
6. Always maintain adequate agitation during application and use the tank mix promptly

Protection of crops, native and other non-target plants;
Drift Warning: Direct spray contact, or even slight drift, may cause severe injury or destruction of any growing crop or other desirable plant, including trees and native vegetation.
Do not use Conquest Amine 300 Selective Herbicide when the breeze is blowing toward nearby desirable plants.
Do not apply under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands or pastures.
Equipment settings that produce fine droplets (150 microns or less), winds over 8km/hr, “still air”, and hot dry days all contribute to drift. Avoid spray drift and vapour movement onto susceptible crops such as cotton, tomatoes, flowers, vegetables, vines, fruit trees, legume crops, pastures, oilseed crops or other susceptible crops and trees (e.g. Kurrajongs, Belahs).
