Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/maintaining personal protective equipment (PPE). If no such instructions for washables are available, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. 

### USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

USERS SHOULD: Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.

### DIRECTIONS FOR USE

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. 

### RESTRICTIONS • Do not treat plants grown for transplanting. Not for use in nurseries, plant propagation houses, or greenhouses by commercial

transplant producers on plants being grown for transplanting. • Do not apply DuPontTM BENEVIATM to the soil or through drip irrigation systems. • Use this product only in commercial and farm plantings. • Not for use on ornamental plants or plants being grown for ornamental purposes. • May be used on crops on this label grown for seed production. • Not for use in home plantings. • Do not apply BENEVIATM insect control through any irrigation system unless specified in the crop section of this label or in

supplemental labeling.

BENEVIATM must be used only in accordance with directions on this label or in separate DuPont supplemental labeling thatmay be made temporarily available through local distributors, as a result of new EPA approvals. DuPont will not be responsible for losses or damages resulting from use of this product in any manner not specifically stated on this label or other lab els or bulletins published by DuPont. User assumes all risks associated with such non-specified use. BENEVIATM is an oil dispersion that can be applied as a foliar spray on labeled crops or by overhead chemigation in potatoesand bulb vegetables to control listed insects. BENEVIATM is specially formulated for maximum performance by foliar applications in bulb vegetables, cotton, oil seed crops, tuberous and corm vegetables and tree nuts. Do not apply directly to the soilor through drip irrigation as doing so may damage the plant root system. BENEVIATM is mixed with water for application. BENEVIATM is a member of the anthranilic diamide class of insecticides with a novel mode of action acting on insect ryanodine receptors. Although BENEVIATM has contact activity, it is most effective through ingestion of treated plant material. After exposure to BENEVIATM, affected insects will rapidly stop feeding, become paralyzed, and typically diewithin 1 - 3 days, reducing both direct damage and the transmission of some insect transmitted diseases. Early season applications of BENEVIATM improve crop establishment and growth vigor by controlling a range of pests that attack seedlings. Time 

### ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This pesticide is toxic to aquatic invertebrates and oysters. Do not apply directly to water. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to use sites. This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment on blooming crops or weeds. Do not apply this product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds while bees are actively visiting the treatment area.Surface Water AdvisoryThis product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff for several weeks after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potentialloading of cyantraniliprole from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours.Ground Water AdvisoryThis chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in ground water. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.



### AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS BENEVIATM must be used only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR Part 170. This standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on the label about personal protective equipment, restricted-entry interval, and notification to workers (as applicable). 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 State or Tribal agency responsible for pesticide regulation. Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 4 hours. For early entry into treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, wear: • Coveralls • Shoes plus socks • Chemical resistant gloves (made of any waterproof material)

2applications to the most susceptible insect pest stage, typically at egg hatch and/or newly hatched larvae or nymphs, before populations reach damaging levels. When pest populations are high, use the highest listed application rate for that pest. For best results when targeting control of sucking pests, begin applications when insect populations first appear. DuPontTM BENEVIATM has preventative activity, but low curative activity for sucking pests. 

### INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT DuPont supports the use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs to control pests. This product may be used as part of an IPM program, which can include biological, cultural, and genetic practices, aimed at preventing economic pest damage. IPM principles and practices include field scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest identification, population monitoring, rotation of insecticides with different modes-of-action, and treating when target pest populations reach locally determined action thresholds. For best results with sucking pests, apply at specified rates when insects first appear. Consult your state cooperative extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate action treatment threshold levels for treating specific pest/crop or site systems in your area. 

### SCOUTINGMonitor insect populations to determine whether or not there is a need for application of BENEVIATM based on locally determined pest management guidelines. More than one treatment of BENEVIATM may be required to control a population of pests. 

### INSECT RESISTANCE MANAGEMENTFor resistance management, BENEVIATM is a Group 28 Insecticide. Repeated and exclusive use of BENEVIATM (cyantraniliprole) or other Group 28 insecticide belonging to the anthranilic diamide class of chemistry may lead to the buildup of resistant strains of insects in some crops. Some insects are known to develop resistance to products used repeatedly for control. Because the development of resistance cannot be predicted, this product may be used as part of a resistance management strategy established for the use area. These strategies may include incorporation of cultural and biological control practices, alternation of mode-of-action classes of ins ecticides on succeeding generations and the most susceptible life stage. Consult your local or state agricultural authorities for details. Unless directed otherwise in the specific crop/pest sections of this label, the best practices are to follow these instructionsto delay the development of insecticide resistance: • Avoid using the same mode of action (same IRAC group number) on consecutive generations of insect pests. • Make no more than 2 applications of BENEVIATM (cyantraniliprole) or other Group 28 products per generation to the same

insect species on a crop.• Application to the next generation of target pest(s) must be with an effective product with a different mode of action (nonGroup 28 insecticide). • Make no more than 2 successive applications within a 30-day period to the same insect species on a crop. The following

application to the target pest(s) must be with an effective product with a different mode of action. • Avoid using less than the labeled rates of BENEVIATM when applied alone or in tank mixtures. • Target the most susceptible insect life stages, whenever possible. • Monitor insect populations for product effectiveness. If resistance to BENEVIATM develops in your area, BENEVIATM or

other products with a similar mode of action, may not provide adequate control. • If poor performance cannot be attributed to improper application or extreme weather conditions, a resistant strain of insect

may be present. If you experience difficulty with control and resistance is a reasonable cause, immediately consult your local DuPont Crop Protection company representative or agricultural advisor for the best alternative method of control. For additional information on insect resistance monitoring, visit the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) on the web at http://www.irac-online.org. 

### APPLICATION

Apply at the specified rates when insect populations reach locally determined action thresholds. For best results with sucking pests, begin applications when insects first appear. Consult the cooperative extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities for local pest management guidelines in your area. Apply follow-up treatments of BENEVIATM, as specified, to keep pest populations under threshold limits. Refer to the Resistance Management section of this label for further guidance on follow-up treatments. See individual crop sections of this label for specific minimum spray intervals. Use sufficient water to obtain thorough, uniform coverage. BENEVIATM may be applied by: foliar ground (including overhead chemigation in potatoes and bulb vegetables), or aerial application equipment. Not all application methods are allowed on all crops; see specific crop sections of this label or othersupplemental labeling for application methods which may be used. BENEVIATM may be applied via overhead sprinkler chemigation systems on potatoes and bulb vegetables. Use of the highest labeled rate for the specified pest may be necessary when making overhead chemigation applications. For aerial application use the following directions unless otherwise specified in

3specific crop/pest sections of this label or other supplemental labeling: use a minimum of 5 gallons per acre (gpa) of water for bulb vegetables, cotton, oil seed crops and tuberous and corm vegetables and use 10 gallons per acre (gpa) for tree nuts. Use of the highest labeled rate for a specified pest may be necessary when making aerial applications. For foliar ground applications use the following directions, unless otherwise specified in specific crop/pest sections of this label or other supplemental labeling: use a minimum of 10 gal per acre (gpa) of water for bulb vegetables, cotton, oilseed crops and tuberous and corm vegetables and use a minimum of 30 gallons per acre (gpa) for tree nuts. Use of Adjuvants - In some situations where coverage is difficult to achieve such as closed canopy, dense foliage, plants with waxy leaf surfaces, or less than optimum applications equipment, an adjuvant may improve performance. Use a proven andrecommended adjuvant that does not affect foliage and/or fruit finish. Tank mixes of BENEVIATM with spreading and penetrating adjuvants can result in crop response. See specific crop instructions in the following crop tables. 

### SPRAY PREPARATION

Spray equipment must be clean and free of previous pesticide deposits before applying BENEVIATM . Fill spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full of water. Add BENEVIATM directly to spray tank. Mix thoroughly to fully disperse the insecticide, once dispersed continued agitation is required. Use mechanical or hydraulic means; do not use air agitation. Observe the most restrictive of the labeling limitations and precautions of all products used in mixtures. Acidification of Spray Tank - If the pH of the spray tank after all products have been added and mixed is above pH 8, adjust to pH 8 or less using a registered acidifying agent. If the spray tank pH is 8 or less no adjustment of the spray tank pH is necessary. Spray tanks of pH 8 or less can be held for up to 8 hours before spraying. Do not store the spray mixture overnight in the spray tank. Compatibility -Since formulations may be changed and new ones introduced, premix a small quantity of a desired tank mix and observe for physical compatibility (settling out, flocculation, etc.). Avoid mixtures of several materials and very concentrated spray mixtures. This product can be mixed with pesticide products labeled for use on crops on this label in accordance with the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions. Do not exceed labeled dosage rates. This product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing. Tank mixes and crop tolerance - BENEVIATM is an oil dispersion. Crop tolerance with BENEVIATM alone or in tank mix with many common insecticides, fungicides and adjuvants has been found to be acceptable. Tank mixes of BENEVIATM with some products formulated as emulsifiable concentrates (EC) and certain fungicides that inherently have shown lowmargins of safety can result in crop response. Crop varieties can differ in their responsiveness, and environmental conditions can have an influence. It is not possible to test BENEVIATM alone or with all possible tank mix combinations on all varieties under all environmental conditions. Prior to using BENEVIATM alone on a new variety, or with any tank mix partner on a wide area, test the mixture in a small area of the intended crop in accordance with label directions for use to ensure that an adverse crop response will not occur. Consult a DuPont representative for more information regarding use of BENEVIATM in tank mixtures. Tank Mixing Sequence -Add different formulation types in the sequence indicated below*. Allow time for complete mixing and dispersion after addition of each product. 1. Water soluble bag (WSB) 2. Water soluble granules (SG) 3. Water dispersible granules (WG, XP, DF) 4.

### CHEMIGATION - Overhead Sprinkler - Potatoes and Bulb Vegetables

The following types of irrigation equipment may be used for chemigation applications to potatoes and bulb vegetables: overhead sprinkler irrigation systems. Apply BENEVIATM in sufficient water and of sufficient duration to ensure the recommended rate is applied evenly to the entire treated area. Inject BENEVIATM downstream from any water filtration system.

4Do not connect any irrigation system used for pesticide applications to a public water system unless the pesticide labelprescribed safety devices are in place. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped waterfor human consumption, if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals at least 60 days out of the year. See "Required System Safety Devices For All Chemigation Systems" at the end of the Chemigation section.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHEMIGATION USING OVERHEAD SPRINKLER SYSTEMS - POTATOES AND BULB VEGETABLES Types of Chemigation Systems: DuPontTM BENEVIATM may be applied to potatoes and bulb vegetables through overhead sprinkler irrigation systems, including the following; center pivot, end tow, hand move, lateral move, side roll, solid set and wheel line. The irrigation system used must provide uniform water distribution. Directions for Chemigation: Preparation A pesticide tank is recommended for the application of BENEVIATM in chemigation systems. Thoroughly clean the injection system and tank of any fertilizer or chemical residues using a standard clean-out procedure. Dispose of any residues in accordance with State and Federal laws. With the mix tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with water and the agitator running, measure the required amount of BENEVIATM and add it to the tank. The highest labeled rate for the specified pest may be necessary when making overhead chemigation applications. Then add additional water to bring your total pesticide mixture up to the desired volume for your application. Note: Always add the BENEVIATM to water, never put BENEVIATM into a dry tank or other mixing equipment without first adding water. See "Tank Mixing Sequence" section of the container label for tank mixing sequence. Continue to agitate the mixture throughout the application process. Use mechanical or hydraulic agitation, do not use air agitation. Injection Into Chemigation Systems Inject the proper amount of BENEVIATM into the irrigation water flow using a positive displacement injection pump or aVenturi injector. Injection should occur at a point in the main irrigation water flow to ensure thorough mixing with the irrigation water. For continuously moving systems, inject the solution containing BENEVIATM into the irrigation water line continually and uniformly throughout the irrigation cycle. Apply in no more than 0.2 inches of water per acre. For overhead sprinkler systems that are stationary, add the solution containing BENEVIATM to the irrigation water line and apply no more than 0.2 inches of water per acre.

Uniform Water Distribution The irrigation system used for application of BENEVIATM must provide for uniform distribution of BENEVIATM treated water. Non-uniform distribution can result in crop injury, lack of effectiveness or illegal pesticide residues in or on the crop being treated. Ensure the irrigation system is calibrated to uniformly distribute the chemigation application to the crop. Contact the equipment manufacturer, the local University Extension agent or other experts if you have questions about achieving uniform distribution of the application. Equipment Calibration Calibrate the irrigation system and injector before applying BENEVIATM . Calibrate the injection pump while the system is running using the expected irrigation rate. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact your state extension service specialists, equipment manufacturer or other experts. Monitoring of Chemigation ApplicationsA person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of a responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise. Wear the personal protective equipment as defined in the PPE section of the label for applicators and other handlers when making adjustments or repairs on the chemigation system when BENEVIATM is in the irrigation water. Operation Start the water pump and sprinkler, and let the system achieve the desired pressure and speed before starting the injector. Start the injector and calibrate the injection system according to the directions above. This procedure is necessary to deliver the desired rate per acre in a uniform manner. When the application is finished, allow the entire irrigation and injector system to be thoroughly flushed clean before stopping the system.• End guns must be turned off during the application, if they irrigate nontarget areas or if they do not provide uniform application and coverage. • It is recommended that nozzles in the immediate area of wells, control panels, chemical supply tanks and system safety devices be plugged to prevent contamination of these areas. • Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. • Do not apply when system connections or fittings leak or when nozzles do not provide uniform distribution. • Do not allow irrigation water to collect or run-off during chemigation.

5Cleaning the System Thoroughly clean the injection system and tank of any fertilizer or chemical residues using a standard clean-out procedure. Dispose of any residues in accordance with State and Federal laws. Consult your owner’s manual or your local equipment dealer for cleanout procedures for your injection system. REQUIRED SYSTEM SAFETY DEVICES FOR ALL CHEMIGATION SYSTEMS 1. The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve and low-pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. 2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. 3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down. 4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops. 5. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. 6. Systems must use a metering device, such as a positive displacement pump or a Venturi injector, that provides uniform injection of the product, is effectively designed and constructed of materials compatible with the product, and is capable of being fitted with a system interlock. 7. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced- pressure zone, backflow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe. 

### SPRAY TANK CLEANOUT

Prior to application, start with clean, well maintained application equipment. Immediately following application, thoroughly clean all spray equipment to reduce the risk of forming hardened deposits which might become difficult to remove. Drain spray equipment. Thoroughly rinse sprayer and flush hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water. Clean all other associated application equipment. Take all necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. Do not clean near wells, water sources or desirable vegetation. Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local regulations.

Turmeric: †† - Potato Tuberworm: BENEVIATM may be applied at rates of 7 to 13.5 fl oz/A to control potato Yam bean; tuberworm. Begin application when field scouting indicates the presence of tuberworm Yam, true adults and/or larvae. Potato tuberworm often have overlapping generations so repeat applications of BENEVIATM may be needed based on scouting. Avoid treating successive generations with the same mode of action. It is important to protect the crop just prior to harvest when foliage starts to senesce. Use the higher rate of BENEVIATM when tuberworm pressure is high. Failure to adequately control potato tuberworm larvae prior to crop senescence or vine kill increases the risk of tuber damage. Foliar sprays alone, by air or ground, may not provide adequate control of larvae in the mid to lower crop canopy. For best results, apply via overhead chemigation or integrate chemigation applications into the foliar spray program. For best results with foliar sprays, add Methylated seed oil (MSO) adjuvant at 1 gallon per 100 gallons of spray volume (1% v/v). For chemigation applications, apply in 0.1 to 0.2 acre inches of water and add MSO at 12 to 16 fl oz/acre. See “Chemigation - Overhead Sprinkler - Potatoes and Bulb Vegetables”section for instructions on overhead sprinkler chemigation. Suppression of Zebra Chip Disease : Use of BENEVIATM to control potato psyllid at a rate of 13.5 to 20.5 fl. oz./A applied starting when psyllid populations are low will help suppress the expression of the zebra chip disease.

### SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT

The interaction of many equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering all these factors when making application decisions. Avoiding spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator.

IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZEThe most effective drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets which are consistent with pest control objectives. The presence of sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift control and coverage. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions. A droplet size classification system describes the range of droplet sizes produced by spray nozzles. The American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) provide a Standard that describes droplet size spectrum categories defined by a number of reference nozzles (fine, coarse, etc.). Droplet spectra resulting from the use of a specific nozzle may also be described in terms of volume mean diameter (VMD). Coarser droplet size spectra have larger VMD's and lower drift potential.

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE - GROUND APPLICATION • Nozzle Type - Select a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray

angles produce larger droplets. The use of low-drift nozzles will reduce drift potential. • Pressure - The lowest spray pressures recommended for the nozzle produce the largest droplets. Higher pressure reduces

droplet size and does not improve canopy penetration. When higher flow rates are needed, using a higher-capacity nozzle instead of increasing pressure results in the coarsest droplet spectrum.• Flow Rate/Orifice Size - Using the highest flow rate nozzles (largest orifice) that are consistent with pest control objectives reduces the potential for spray drift. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce coarser droplet spectra.

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE - AIRCRAFT • Nozzle Type - Solid stream, or other low drift nozzles produce the coarsest droplet spectra. • Number of Nozzles - Using the minimum number of nozzles with the highest flow rate that provide uniform coverage

will produce a coarser droplet spectrum • Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles in a manner that minimizes the effects of air shear will produce the coarsest

droplet spectra. For some nozzles such as solid stream, pointing the nozzles straight back parallel to the airstream will produce a coarser droplet spectrum than other orientations. • Pressure - Selecting the pressure that produces the coarsest droplet spectrum for a particular nozzle and airspeed reduces spray drift potential. For some nozzle types such as solid streams, lower pressures can produce finer droplet spectra and increase drift potential BOOM LENGTH (AIRCRAFT), AND APPLICATION HEIGHT • Boom Length (aircraft) - Using shorter booms decreases drift potential. Boom lengths are expressed as a percentage of

an aircraft's wingspan or a helicopter's rotor blade diameter. Shorter boom length and proper positioning can minimize drift caused by wingtip or rotor vortices. • Application Height (aircraft) - Applications made at the lowest height that are consistent with pest control objectives and

the safe operation of the aircraft will reduce the potential for spray drift. • Application Height (ground) - Applications made at the lowest height consistent with pest control objectives, and that

allow the applicator to keep the boom level with the application site and minimize bounce, will reduce the exposure of spray droplets to evaporation and wind, and reduce spray drift potential.

WIND Drift potential is lowest when applications are made in light to gentle sustained winds (2-10 mph), which are blowing in a constant direction. Many factors, including droplet size and equipment type also determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDITIONS. Local terrain can also influence wind patterns. Every applicator is expected to be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY Setting up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for droplet evaporation can reduce spray drift potential. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry.

SURFACE TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS Drift potential is high during a surface temperature inversion. Surface inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which maycause small suspended droplets to remain close to the ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud. Surface inversions are characterized by increasing temperature 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. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas. Inversions may also be identified by producing smoke and observing its behavior.

10Smoke that remains close to the ground, or moves laterally in a concentrated cloud under low wind conditions indicates a surface inversion. Smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.

SHIELDED SPRAYERS Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the applicator to verify that the shields are minimizing drift potential, and not interfering with uniform deposition of the product. AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLAST) FIELD CROP SPRAYERS Air assisted field crop sprayers carry droplets to the target via a downward directed air stream. Some may reduce the potential for drift, but if a sprayer is unsuitable for the application and/or set up improperly, high drift potential can result. It is the responsibility of the applicator to determine that a sprayer is suitable for the intended application, that it is configured properly, and that drift potential has been minimized. Note: Air assisted field sprayers can affect product performance by affecting spray coverage and canopy penetration. Read the specific crop use and application equipment instructions to determine if an air assisted field crop sprayer can be used.

SENSITIVE AREAS Making applications when there is a sustained wind moving away from adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is an effective way to minimize the effect of spray drift.

DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVES Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is used, read and carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additive's label. If using an additive that increases viscosity, ensure that the nozzles and other application equipment will function properly with a viscous spray solution. Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA).
