### Use Information Pendimethalin' 3.3 EC herbicide is a selective herbicide for controlling most annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds as they germinate. Refer to Table 1 for a complete list of controlled weeds. Pendimethalin 3.3 EC will not control established weeds. Unusually cold, excessivelywet, or hot and dry conditions that delay germination or extend germination over a long period oftimecan reduce weed control. Overapplication can**result~in-crop-stand-loss-crop-injury-or-soil** residues. Uneven application or improper soil incorporation can decreaseweed control or cause crop injury. Soil incorporation deeperthan recommended can reduce weed control. Seedling diseases, cold weather, excessive moisture, shallow or deep planting, low or high soil pH, high soil salt concentration, ordrought can weaken seedlings and plants and increase the possibility of crop damagefrom
Pendimethalin 32 EC. Underthese conditions, crop yields can be reduced.

### Mode ofAction Pendimethalin 3.3 EC is a meristematic inhibitor that interferes with the plant's cellular division or mitosis. This and/or other products with the meristematic inhibiting mode ofaction may not effectively control naturally occurring biotypes ofsome ofthe weeds listed on this label. A weed biotype is a naturally occurring plantwithin a given species that has a slightly different, but distinct, genetic makeupfrom other plants. Other herbicides with the meristematic inhibiting mode ofaction include otherdinitroaniline herbicides, such as trifluralin. If naturally occurring meristematic inhibiting resistant biotypes are present in a field, Pendimethalin 3.3 EC and/or any other meristematic inhibiting mode ofaction herbicide should be tank mixed orapplied sequentially with an appropriate registered herbicide having a differentmode of action to ensure control. 

### Application Rate Use rates for Pendimethalin 3.3 EC when used alone, in tank mix, orsequential applications are given in Crop-specific Information. Use rates ofthis product vary by soil texture and organic matter. See Table 2for soil texture groupings used in this label.

### 77 days after application is required to movethis product into the upper soil surface where weed seeds germinate. !fadequate rainfall or irrigation does not occur and weed seedling emergence begins, a shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing will improve performance. Early Postemergence Applications: Pendimethalin 3.3 EC must be applied priortoweed seedling emergence or in a tank mixwith products that control the emerged weeds. Refer to Crop-specific Information for specific postemergence application rates by crop. Postemergence IncorporatedApplications CULTJ-SPRAV): Prior to application, crop must be cUltivated in such a manner as to throw at least one inch of soil over the base ofthe crop plants. This will prevent direct contact of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC and the zone of brace root formation. Pendimethalin 3.3 EC must be applied broadcast with a ground sprayerwhen crop is at least 4 inches tall upto layby. Use drop nozzles if crop foliage will prevent uniform coverage ofthe soil surface within the rows. Thoroughly and uniformly incorporate Pendimethalin 3.3 EC treatments into the soil with: (I) a sweep-type or rolling cuHivator set to provide thorough incorporation in the top 1 inch of soil, or (2) adequate overhead irrigation wateror rainfall. See Crop-specific Information (Corn and Grain Sorghum) for more details on (CULTI-SPRAY) application. Layby Application: Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC directly to the soil between rows as a directed spray following the last norma! cultivation (!ayby). See Crop-specific Information for more details on layby application. Split Applications: Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied pre-plant incorporated upto 60 days priorto planting and followed by a preemergence application at planting or up to2 days after planting. The total amount of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC applied peracre per season cannot exceed the highest labeled rate for any given soil type. See Crop-specific Information for more details on split applications. Fall Applications: Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be used in fall application programs in certain crops. See Crop-specific Information for details on fall application timing. 

### Spraying Instructions Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied using eitherwater orsprayable fluid fertilizer (such as straight 32-0-0 or 28-0-0) as the spray carrier. Additionally, Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer. Sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier is NOT !abeled for use after crop emergence unless thetypical fertilizer burn symptoms on the crop are acceptable.

more gallons ofwater per acre. Exercise caution to minimize drift. DO NOT ofgustywinds orwhen wind conditions favor drifting. Spray drift can cause crops. It is recommended that a flagman oran automatic mechanical flagging unit used to avoid overlapping and possible crop injury. ground equipment in 10 or more gallons ofwater per acre or i per acre. Use sprayers equipped with appropriate nozzlesthat provide and accurate spray distribution and minimize drift. Keepthe bypass line on or near the bottom ofthe tank to minimizefoaming. Nozzle and in-line screens must be no finerthan 50 mesh. Application of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC during periods ofgustywinds may result in uneven applications. DO NOT apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC postemergence in liquid fertilizers. If liquid fertilizer/herbicide{s) mixture separates in the spray tank, clogged equipment and uneven application can result. Always predetermine the compatibility of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC alone orwith other herbicides based on the following compatibility "jar test": I. Add 1 pint offertilizer to a quartjar. 2. Add 1to 4 teaspoon(s) ofthe Dry Flowable (OF), Wettable Powder (WP), Aqueous Solution (AS), Flowable (F) or Liquid (L) formulation (depending on mixing ratio required) to the liquid fertilizer. The number ofteaspoons ofthe formulalton to add can be determined by the following formula: Lbs or pts of product/acre X 11.4 = Gallons of fertilizer/acre number ofteaspoons of herbicide to add to 1 pint offertilizer
3. Closethejarand agitate until the herbicide(s) are evenly dispersed in the liquid fertilizer. Ifthe materials DO NOT dispersewell, it may be necessaryto slurry the chemicals in water before adding to the fertilizer. 

### 84. After dispersing the materials, add appropriate number ofteaspoons of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC tothe jar and shake well. Add water soluble concentrate herbicides to the mixture last and agitate. Let the mixture stand for 30 minutes and then observe the results. Look for signs of separation: an oily layer or globules, sludge, flakes orother precipitates.
5. Evaluate compatibility. (a) Ifthe herbicide(s) and liquid fertilizer mixture does not separate, use this mixture in your spray

tank. (b) Ifthe mixture separates but mixes readily with shaking, the mixture can be used provided that good agitation is maintained in the spray tank. (c) If separation ofthe mixture occurs and agitation does not correct this problem, a compatibility

agent is needed. 6. Ifthe need for a compatibility agent is demonstrated, the following procedure is recommended: Using a clean quartjar, repeat step 1above and add 1/2teaspoon ofthe compatibility agent to the liquid fertilizer. Mix well and repeat steps 2, 3 and 4. If separation or precipitation occurs with the compatibility agent. DO NOT use Pendimethalin' 3.3 EC herbicidewith that specific liquid fertilizer. Ground Applications (Band) broadcast equivalent rate and volume per acre. To determine these: X Broadcast Rate = Band Rate perAcre perAcre Band Width in Inches X Broadcast = Band Volume RowWidth in Inches Volume perAcre perAcre Ground Applications (Dry Bulk Fertilizer) Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC/dry bulk fertilizer mixtures only with ground eqUipment. DO NOT impregnate Pendimethalin 3.3 EC onto coated ammonium nitrate or limestone because these materialswill not absorb the herbicide. Dry fertilizer blends containing mixtures ofammonium nitrate or limestone may be impregnated with Pendimethalin 3.3 EC. A minimum of200 pounds of impregnated dry bulk fertilizer, excluding the weight of ammonium nitrate or limestone, must be applied peracre. Use the following formula to determinethe amount (in pints) of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC to be impregnated on a ton of dry bulk fertilizer based on the rate of fertilizer to be applied peracre: 2000 Pounds of Dry FertilizerperAcre Pints of X Pendimethalin 3.3 EC (Labeled Rate perAcre) = Pints of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC per Ton of Fertilizer
To impregnate Pendimethalin**3.~** EC on bulk fertilizer, use a closed rotary-drum mixer or other commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender equipped with suitable spray equipment. Spray nozzles must be placed to provide uniform coverage of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC onto the fertilizer during mixing. Apply the Pendimethalin 3.3 EC/dry bulk fertilizer mixturewith an accurately calibrated dryfertilizer spreader. The Pendimethalin 3.3 EC/dry bulk fertilizer mixture must be spread uniformly on the soil surface. Chemigation Applicationsvia Sprinkler Irrigation Systems Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied as a chemigation treatment through sprinkler irrigation systems. Referto Crop-specific Information sections for individual crops. DO NOT apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC via chemigation to crops unless speCified in Crop-specific Information section. Apply this product ONLY through a sprinkler irrigation system ofthe following type: center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move. DO NOT applY this product through any other type of sprinkler irrigation system. Uniform distribution of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC-treated irrigation water is the sole responsibility ofthe applicator and is required to avoid crop injury, lack ofherbicide effectiveness or illegal pesticide residues in the crop. Ifyou have any questions about calibration, you should contact state extension service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. Thesystem must be properly calibrated (with water only) to ensure that the amount of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC applied corresponds to the labeled rate. Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC in 1/2to 3/4 inches ofwater 

### 9during the first sprinkler set (use at least 1 inch ofwater in the states ofTexas, New Mexico and Oklahoma). Maintain agitation in the injection nurse tank to keep a uniform herbicide suspension during application. When application is complete, flush the system with water. Chemigatlon Instructions (for lowvolume micro sprinklers) Output of lowvolume sprinkler4 to 50 gallons per hour (gph) peremitter. Point ofapplication MUST be above ground. Irrigation system should run a sufficient amount oftime prior to Pendimethalin 3.3 EC injection to have all emitters functioning properly. After system is operating properly, length of injection should be such that at one period oftime during the injection, the first and last emitters in the system contain Pendimethalin 3.3 EC treated water. Add Pendimethalin 3.3 EC to the supply tank already filled with the volume ofwater required for the injection period. Maintain proper agitation in Pendimethalin 3.3 EC injection tank. Pendimethalin 3.3 EC should be mixed in clean water and Injected down the line from filters. Following Pendimethalin 3.3 EC injection, system should beflushed for a period oftime sufficient to clearthe line of Pendimethalln 3.3 EC. (If Pendimethalin 3.3 EC application is made during a normal irrigation cycle, injection should be made during the last stage.) Chemigation Calibration (forlowvolume microsprinklers) Calculation of use rate is based on wetted area around emitters

Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain afunctional. reducedpressure zone backflow preventer (RPZ) orthe functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the waterfrom the publicwater system should be discharged into a reservoirtank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (airgap) between the outlet end ofthefill pipe and the top or overflow rim ofthe reservoirtank ofat least twice the inside diameterofthefill pipe. 3. All chemigation systems connected to public water systems must also follow restrictions listed in the preceding section titled Chemigation. Applications via Flooded Basin Irrigation Systems Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied viaflooded basin irrigation systems, but only to the following crops: bearing and nonbearing fruit and nut trees, nonbearing vineyards, and alfalfa. Use Instructions and Precautions forFlooded Basin Irrigation 1. Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied through flooded basin irrigation systems designed to uniformly distribute irrigation water along the soil surface. Solid set systems utilizing tall riser for overhead application are excluded. 2. Follow all label recommendations and restrictions for Pendimethalin 3.3 EC regarding rates per acre, timing of application and crop-specific restrictions and limitations. 3. DO NOT connect an irrigation system used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place. 4.

Be sureto regularly measure the flow in the field to ensure the correct amount of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC is being metered into the irrigationwater and also regularly monitorto ensure that treated water is being uniformly distributed across the field. Flow rates through metering devices and distribution of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC can varywith watertemperature and speed ofwaterflow across the field. 10. Uniform distribution of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC-treated irrigation water is the sale responsibility ofthe applicator and is required to avoid crop injury, lack of herbicide effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop. 11. Ifyou have questions about calibration, you should contact state extension service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts. 

### Managing**Off~Target** 

### Movement
SPRAY DRIFT Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility ofthe applicator. The interaction ofmany equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicatorand grower are responsible forconsidering allthese factors when making decisions. It is the responsibility ofthe applicatorto avoid spray drift onto nontarget areas. Thefollowing drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target drift movementfrom aerial applications to agricultural field crops:

1. The distance ofthe outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed 

### 3/4the length ofthe wingspan or rotor. 2. Nozzles mustalways point backward parallel with the air stream and never be painted downwards morethan 45 degrees. Where states have more stringent regulations, they should be observed. The applicator should be familiarwith and take into account the information covered in the Spray Drift Reduction Advisory Information presented below. INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE The mosteffective wayto reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest dropletsthat provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential butwill not prevent drift Ifapplications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see WIND, TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY, and TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS).

CONTROLLING DROPLETSIZE Volume

- Use high flow rate nozzlesto applythe highest practical sprayvolume. Nozzleswith higher rated flows produce larger droplets. Pressure" DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lower 

### 12pressure produces larger droplets. When high flow rates are needed, use higherflow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. Numberof Nozzles

- Use the minim number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage. Nozzle Orientation

- Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel 

### to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is recommended practice

.. Significant deflection from the horizontalwill reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. Nozzle Type

- Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using lowdrift nozzles. Solid- or straight-stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift. BOOM LENGTH For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 

### 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length mayfurther reduce drift without reducing swath width. APPLICATION HEIGHT Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure ofdroplets toevaporation and wind. SWATH ADJUSTMENT When applications are madewith a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges ofthe field, the applicator must compensate forthis displacement by adjusting the path ofthe aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increasewith increasing drift potential (higherwind, smaller droplets, etc.). WIND Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 to 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and eqUipment type, determine drift potential at any given speed. Application should be avoided below 2 mph due tovariable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiarwith local wind patterns and howthey affect spray drift.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry. TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due tothe light, variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. Their presence can be Indicated by ground fog; however, iffog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement ofsmoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smokethat layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under lowwind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
SENSITIVE AREAS This pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive, areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies ofwater, known habitatforthreatened orendangered species, or nontarget crops or plants) is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing awayfrom the sensitive areas).

### Additives Spray adjuvants have little or no influence on performance of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC herbicidewhen applications are made priorto weed emergence. However, several tank mixes with Pendimethalin 3.3 EC require adjuvants to improve burndown ofemergedweeds. Therefore, surfactants, liquid fertilizer (28%, 30<'>/0, or32% UAN (urea ammonium nitrate) orammonium sulfate), or crop oil concentrate may be used with Pendimethalin 3.3 EC tank mixes applied preplant, preemergence, or early postemergencetothe crop. Follow the adjuvant recommendations on the tank mix partner's label. When an adjuvant (or a specific adjuvant product, such as a drift control agent) is to be used with this product, the use ofa Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) certified adjuvant is recommended. The recommended adjuvants must contain ingredients accepted by the EPA.

Use Methods, Timings and Rates Last Cultivation (Layby) -_Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC following the last normal mechanical cultivation (Iayby) at a rate of 1.2 to 4.8 pints per acre (on a broadcast basis). Uniformly apply as a directed spray to the soil between rows. DO NOT allowthe sprayto contact carrot plants or injury mayoccur. Use protective shields to avoid contact with carrot foliage. Use properly calibrated and accurate nozzles and equipment. Layby applications can be applied to carrots previouslytreated with herbicides registered inion carrots. Consult the labels ofthose herbicides for suggested treatments, rates to be used, and precautions or restrictions for use in carrots and for follow crop restrictions. Restrictions and Lfmitat!ons
• DO NOT apply as a broadcast spray over top ofcarrots or crop injury may result.
• DO NOT apply !ayby applications by chemigation or by air.
• DO NOT apply within 60 days of carrot seed harvest. • DO NOT feed, forage orgraze Ilvestock in treated fields.
• DO NOT harvest carrots forfood orfeed use.
SPECIAL CROP USE RESTRICTIONS The pesticide applicator, the producer ofthe crop, and the seed conditioner must be aware that use ofthis product according to this labeling is deemed a nonfeed/nonfood use. !fthe applicator of this pesticide is not the producer, the applicator should provide a copy ofthis labeling tothe producer ofthe crop. Producers ofthis cropwho usethis product. or cause the product to be used on a field theyoperate, should provide a copy ofthis pesticide label to the seed conditioner. Consequently, no portion ofthis carrot seed crop, including but not limited to green chop, hay, pellets, meal. whole seed, cracked seed, roots, bulbs, foliage and seed screenings, may be used or distributed for food or feed purposes. Processed carrot seed from a field treated with this product must bear a specific tag orconspicuous container labeling, or ifshipped in bulk, on the shipment invoice or bill of lading, with the following statement: "Notfor human consumption oranimal feed." AI seed screenings from seed processing shall be disposed of in such a mannerthat the screenings cannot be distributed or used for human food or anima! feed purposes. 

### 21The seed conditioner shall keep records of screening disposalforthree years from the date ofdisposal and shall furnish the records immediately upon request. Conditioner disposal records shall consist of documentation of on-farm disposal, disposal at a controlled dumpsite, incinerator, composter orother equivalent disposal site and shall include the lot numbers, amount of material disposed of, the grower(s), and the date of disposal.

CORN (Field, Pop, Seed, Sweet), Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applled by ground, air or chemigation. Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applled in conventional, minimum, or no-till as a preemergence, postemergence, or postemergence incorporated (CULTI-SPRAY) application in field corn. Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied in conventional tlilage as a preemergence or postemergence application in sweet corn, seed corn, or popcorn. Regardless oftillage sYstem. plantcorn at least 1-1/2 inches deep and completely cover with soi!. In conventional tll!age systems, plant into a seedbed that is firm and free of clods and trash. Use only where adequatetll!age is practiced to provide good soil coverage ofthe corn seed. In no-till systems, utilize a no-till planter that is capable of planting through crop residue. The use of no-tll! planters under conditions that do not allow good soil coverage ofthe corn seed can result in reduced crop stand or injury if Pendimethalin 3.3 EC contacts the germinating corn seed. Check equipment to ensure good seed coverage. Pendimethalin 33 EC or Pendimethalin 3.3 EC tank mixcombination treatments are most effective in controlling weeds when adequate rainfall or overhead irrigation is received within 7 days after application. Ifcultivation is necessary because of soil crusting or weed germination, use shallow tillage and makecertain corn seeds are belowthe tilled area.
Additional Weeds Controlled: In addition to the weeds listed in Table 1, Pendimethalin 3.3 EC will control the following weeds in corn with CULTI-SPRAY application: wild proso millet and shattercane. Use Methods and Timings Preemergence -_Apply after planting but beforeweeds and crop emerge. Postemergence -_Apply postemergence until field corn is 30 inches tall (20 to 24 inches tall for pop, seed, and sweet corn) or in the VB growth slage, whichever is more restrictive. If the corn canopy prevents applicationsfrom reaching the soil, use drop nozzles and apply asa directed spray. CULTI SPRAY-_Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC aloneor Pendimethalin 3.3 EC plus atrazine when field corn is at least 4 inches tall until last cultivation (Iayby). Pendimethalln 3.3 EC plus atrazine must be applied before thefield com reaches 12 inches in height. DO NOT exceed 1.2 Ibs ai per acre ofatrazine, as specified on the atrazine label. Under situations of low rainfall or soil moisture when deep germinating weeds such as shattercane or field sandbur areanticipated, mechanical incorporation will provide best results. If cultivation is needed after application and incorporation of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC, the depth ofcut should be no deeper than the depth ofcut used to incorporated. Chemigation Applications Pendimethalin 3.3 EC herbicide may be applied through sprinkler irrigation systems. Follow all recommendations and restrictions, special instructions and precautions in the general section covering Chemigation in Spraying Instructions.

RICE

Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied as a pre-flood, preemergence application in dry-seeded or drilled rice or as a delayed preemergence application in drilled dry-seeded rice or as an early postemergence application in dry-seeded rice. Treatments may be applied to conventional, reduced or minimum tillage, and no-till (stale seedbed) rice. The seedbed should be firm and free of clods and must be prepared to allow forgood seed coverage. The use of a planter under conditions that do not allow good soil coverage ofthe rice seed can result in reduced stand orstunting if Pendimethalin 3.3 EC contacts germinating rice seed. AdditionalWeeds Controlled: In addition to the weeds listed in Table 1, Pendimethalin 3.3 EC will control thefollowing weeds in rice: junglerice and sprangletop. Use Methods and Timings Pre·Flood Preemergence -_Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be applied for preemergenceweed control as a prewflood, pre-rice germination herbicide in lightly incorporated dry-seeded rice oron drilled rice.
SEEDING DIRECTIONS: For all rice seed! incorporation methods, seed must be incorporated shallowly or no morethan 1 inch below soil surface. Seed left on the surface may be injured or killed by Pendimethalin 3.3 EC. 

### However, ft rs 

### recommendedthat 15to

### deeply. Seeding rates should be increased by a percentage corresponding to the amount ofseed left on the surface. Adjust seeding ratios to meet individual practices, incorporation depths and field conditions. EXAMPLE: Target seeding rate is 150 Ibs peracre. Ifapproximately 15% ofseed is teft on soil surface seeding rate should then be increased 22.5 Ibs peracre t0177,5 Ibs peracre Seeding depths can beaffected by soil textures, tillage practices, irrigation, and methods of mechanical incorporation. Seed that is incorporated either mechanically and/or by irrigation flush must remain at a shallow depth of no morethan 1 inch belowthe soil surface. Fields where rice seed is incorporated too deeplywill experience reduced crop stands. Following are examples oftypical implements that can be used for rice seed incorporation: rice roller/ridger, ring roller, light harrow, orflat roller. Regardless of the implement or method of incorporation used, seed incorporation must be less than 1 inch below the soil surface. After rice seed is incorporated, uniformly applyto soil surface as broadcast spraythe tank mixture of 

### 36Pendimethalin 3.3 EC at 2.4 pints per acre plus FirstChoice® SafeGuard spray adjuvant at 1.6 pints per acre. Use of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC without tank mixing with FirstChoice SafeGuard spray adjuvant can result in crop injury and loss of rice stand. After herbicide application, flush field with irrigation water with method best employed tofacilitate a thorough soaking offield and a rapid drain. Tail water (runoffwater) from fiood irrigation that contains Pendimethalin 3.3 EC should be re-circulated and contained in thefield of initial application or used only on adjacent crops forwhich Pendimethalin 3.3 EC (or otherpendimethalin-based products) is registered for use. Rice seed covered with waterfor longer than 8 days may result in reduced stand and weed contro!. Delayed Preemergence -_Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC alone orwith tank mix partnerfor delayed preemergenceweed control in grain-drilled, dry-seeded rice. Apply Pendimethalin 3.3EC alone or in tank mixture to levees after the levees are pulled and planted. Exposed seeds that come in contact with Pendimethalin 3.3 EC may be injured. Apply only when growing conditions favor vigorous rice growth. The seedbed should have adequate moisture forseed germination. Notfor use in California. Uniformly apply the recommended rate of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC after rice planting and before rice and weed emergence (spiking). Apply after the rice seed has absorbed water and germinated and after the soil has been previously sealed overthe seed by at least 1 inch of rainfall orby irrigation (flush). Ifthe soil has not been sealed by rain orflush, apply when 80 percent ofgerminated seeds have a primary root (radicle) or shoot at least 1/2-inch long. Ifthere is insufficient mOisture, flushing is recommended before: Pendimethalin° 3.3 EC herbicide application tosupply moisturefor root (radicle) initiation and for vigorous rice and weed growth. If applied to soil prior to these conditions or to cracked soil, stand reduction or stunting of rice may occur. Under some conditions, use of gibberellic acid-treated seed, heavy rainfall after application, or flushing after application may result in herbicide injury to rice. Rice can overcome moderate injury with appropriate cultural practices. Due tothe residual activity of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC, this treatment may be applied if rice is too small to maintain aflood on the field for weed contro!. However, proper water management practices must befollowed for normal rice growth and activity of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC. Early Postemergence -_Apply Pendimethalin 3.3 EC as a tank mix partner. Base applications on weed and crop size guidelines ofthe tank mix partner. DO NOT apply tofields with standing water. If necessary, fields may be flushed priortotreatment to produce vigorous rice andweed growth. Since soil and weeds must. be completely exposed to spray coverage, noflood water should be on the field at the time ofapplication. Cloddy soil, standing water (puddles) at the time of application, or cracks in the soil that form after application may result in reduced weed contro!. Because of residual activity of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC, this treatment may be applied if rice is too small to maintain aflood on thefield for weed contro!. However, properwater management practices must be followed for normal rice growth and activity of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC. Since the residual activity of Pendimethalin 3.3 EC is activated by mOisture, Pendimethalin 3.3 EC is most effective in controlling emerging weeds when adequate rainfall or irrigation (flush) is received within 7 days afterapplication.
