Environmental Hazards

Do not apply directly to water, to areas wher e surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate. This product contains atrazine, which has been shown to be toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Runoff and drift from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighbori ng areas. Do not apply when weather conditions favor dri ft from treated areas.Acuron Herbicide Page 4

Ground Water Advisory

Acuron contains the active ingredients atrazine, S -metolachlor, and bicyclopyrone.

Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) th rough soil and can enter ground water which may be used as drinking water. Atrazine has bee n found in ground water. Users are advised not to apply atrazine to sand and loamy sand soils where the water table (ground water) is close to the surface and where these so ils are very permeable, i.e., well-drained. Your local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of soil in your area and the location of ground water.

S

-metolachlor has the potential to leach th rough soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this product in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water tabl e is shallow may result in ground water contamination.

Bicyclopyrone is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.

Surface Water Advisory

This product has a high potential for reac hing surface water via runoff for several months or more after applic ation. 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 potential loading of bicyclopyrone from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.

Mixing/Loading Instructions

Care must be taken when using this product to prevent back-siphoning into wells, spills, or improper disposal of excess pestic ide, spray mixtures, or rinsates.

Check valves or antisiphoning device s must be used on mixing equipment.

This product must not be mixed/loaded or used within 50 ft. of wells, including abandoned wells, drainage wells, and sink holes. Operations that involve mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing to this product into or from pesticide handling or application equipment or containers withi n 50 ft. of any well are proh ibited, unless conducted on an impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be positioned on or moved across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained to contain any product spills or equipment lea ks, container or equipment rinse or wash water, and rain water that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The padAcuron Herbicide Page 5

shall be sloped to facilitate material remo val. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient capacity to contain, at a minimum, 110% of the capacity of th e largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient size to completely exclude precipit ation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum containment capacity of 100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. Containment capacities as described above shall be maintained at all times. The above specified minimum containment capacities do not apply to vehicles when delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading site.

Additional State imposed r equirements regarding well head setbacks and operational area containment mu st be observed.

This product must not be mixed or loaded within 50 ft. of perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. This product may not be applied within 66 ft. of the poi nts where field surface water runoff enters perennial or intermittent streams and rivers or within 200 ft. from the edge of nat ural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. If this product is applied to highly erodible land, the 66 ft. buffer or setback from runoff entry poi nts must be planted to crop, or seeded with grass or other suitable crop.

Tile-Outletted Terraced Fi elds Containing Standpipes

One of the following restrict ions must be used in applying atrazine to tile-outletted terraced fields containing standpipes:

1. Do not apply this product within 66 ft. of standpipes in tile-outletted terraced fields. 2. Apply this product to the entire tile -outletted terraced field and immediately incorporate it to a depth of 2- 3 inches in the entire field. 3. Apply this product to the entire tile-out letted terraced field under a no-till practice only when a high crop residue management practice is practiced. High crop residue management is described as a cr op management practice where little or no crop residue is removed from the field during and after crop harvest.

PRODUCT INFORMATION

Acuron may be used preemergence and postemer gence in the culture of field corn, seed corn, and silage corn. Acuron may also be used in the culture of sweet corn and yellow popcorn but the applic ation must be made prior to crop emergence, (i.e., preemergence) or severe cr op injury may occur.

Acuron is a combination of the herbicides: atrazine, bicyclopyrone, mesotrione and S

metolachlor plus the safener benoxacor. Acuron is recommended for management of the weed species listed in Tables 1 and 2.

ATRAZINE, MESOTRIONE AND S -METOLACHLOR HERBICIDE RATE LIMITATIONS

Certain states may have established rate limitations within specific geographical areas for the use of atrazine. These more restrictive/protective requirements must be followed. Consult your state lead pestici de control agency for additional information. It is a violation of this label to deviate from state use regulations.

 When tank mixing or sequentia lly applying atrazine or produc ts containing atrazine with Acuron to corn, do not exceed an application rate of 2.0 pounds active ingredient of atrazine per acre for any single application and the total pounds of atrazine applied (lb. a.i. per acre) must not exceed 2.5 pounds active ingredient per
acre per year.

 Maximum broadcast application rates for atrazine in corn must be as follows:

o If no atrazine was applied prior to corn emergence, apply a maximum of 2.0 lb. a.i./A broadcast. If a postemergenc e treatment is required following an earlier herbicide application, the total atrazine applied may not exceed 2.5 lbs. a.i./A per calendar year.

o Apply a maximum of 2.0 lb. a.i./A as a single preemergence application on soils that are not highly erodible or on highly erodible soils (as defined by the Natural Resource Conservation Service) if at least 30% of the soil is covered with plant residues.

o Apply a maximum of 1.6 lb. a.i./A as a single preem ergence application on highly erodible (as defined by the Natu ral Resource Conservation Service) soils if <30% of the surfac e is covered with plant residue s; or 2.0 lbs. a.i./A if only applied postemergence.

Note: For purposes of calculating total atra zine active ingredient applied, Acuron contains 1.0 lb. a.i. atrazi ne plus related per gallon.Acuron Herbicide Page 9

Do not exceed label dosage rates, nor combined maximum annual rates for mesotrione (no more than 0.24 lb of mesotr ione active ingredient must be applied per acre of corn per year), and S -metolachlor (the maxi mum annual use rate per year is 3.71 lb ai/A for corn). Do not apply more than 0.045 lb ai/A of bicyclopyrone for corn.

ACURON USE PRECAUTIONS

 Applied according to directions and under normal growing condit ions, Acuron will not harm the treated crop. During germinati on and early stages of growth, extended periods of unusually cold and wet or hot and dry weather, insect or plant disease attack, carryover pesticide residues, t he use of certain soil applied systemic insecticides, improperly placed fertilizers or soil insecticides, may weaken crop seedlings. Acuron used under these conditions could result in crop injury.

 Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean erratic control from good to poor or co nsistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable fo r commercial weed control.

 Dry weather following preem ergence application of Acuron or a Acuron tank mixture may reduce effectiveness. If possible, cultivate if weeds develop.

 Applying Acuron postemergence to corn that has received an at-plant application of Counter® insecticide can result in severe co rn injury. Tempor ary corn injury may occur if Acuron is applied to emerged co rn where organophosph ate insecticides other than Counter were applied at planting.

 Postemergence (emerged corn) applications of any organophosphate or carbamate insecticide within 7 days befor e or 7 days after a Acuron application may result in severe corn injury.

ACURON USE RESTRICTIONS

 Grazing Restriction: To avoid possible i llegal residues, do not graze or feed forage from treated areas for 45 da ys following application.

 Pre-harvest Interval (PHI): Corn (for grain, seed, or silage) may be treated up to 12 inches tall. Do not harvest forage within 60 days after application.

 Do not apply more than 3.0 qt of Acuron per acre per growing year.

 Do not use aerial application to apply Acuron.Acuron Herbicide Page 10

 Do not apply Acuron to sweet corn or yellow popcorn after the crop has emerged or severe crop injury may occur.

 Do not use Acuron on any crop other than corn (for grain, seed, or silage), sweet corn (preemergence applications onl y) or yellow popcorn (preemergence applications only).

 Do not use Acuron in the culture of wh ite popcorn or ornamental (Indian) corn or injury may occur.

 Do not contaminate irrigation water us ed for crops or water used for domestic
purposes.

 Thoroughly clean sprayer or other applic ation device before using. Dispose of cleaning solution in a responsible manner . Do not use a sprayer or applicator contaminated with other materials, or crop damage or sprayer clogging of the application device may occur.

 Read and observe all precauti ons and limitations on this l abel and the label of each product used in tank mixtures.

 Do not make postemergence (emerged corn) applications of Acuron in a tank mix with any organophosphate or ca rbamate insecticide, or severe corn injury may

occur.

 Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing this product to non-target areas. To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion:

o Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are favorable for wind erosion. Under these conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by rainfall or irrigation.

o Do not apply to impervious substrates , such as paved or highly compacted surfaces.

o Do not use tail water from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat nontarget crops, unless at least 1⁄2 inch of rainfall has occurred between application and the first irrigation.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT

Acuron is a combination of atra zine, bicyclopyrone, mesotrione and S -metolachlor (Group 5 (atrazine), 15 (S-metolachlo r), and 27 (mesotrione) Herbicides).Acuron Herbicide Page 11

Naturally occurring biotypes of certain weed species with resistance to triazines, ALS, PPO, Glycine (glyphosate) and HPPD herbicides are known to exist. If biotypes of weeds resistant to triazines, ALS, PPO and glyci ne inhibitors are present in the field, this herbicide should control them if they are listed in Tables 1 and 2.

To reduce the risk of weeds developing resi stance to HPPD inhibitors, implement a program including both preem ergence and/or postemergence herbicides that provide effective control of all weeds using multiple modes of action. This includes scouting fields before application to ensure the her bicide will be appropriate for the weeds present. Scout fields and eliminate weed e scapes. If suspected weed resistance is observed against a particular weed species contact your Syngenta or retailer representative or call Syngent a Customer Service (1- 800-334-9481). Lack of weed control is not necessarily an i ndicator of weed resistance.

Consider weed resistance manag ement strategies that incl udes two or more modes of action where a minimum of two modes of acti on are effective at controlling the target weed when either are applied alone.

Read and follow all label directions.

Acuron Herbicide contains four herbicide acti ve ingredients and three modes of action and can be an effective component of a weed resistance management strategy.

INTEGRATED PEST (WEED) MANAGEMENT

Acuron may be integrated into an overall pe st management strategy. Practices known to reduce weed development (tillage, crop competition) and herbicide use (weed scouting, proper application timing, banding, and rotations) should be followed wherever possible. Consult local agricultural and we ed authorities for additi onal Integrated Pest Management strategies estab lished for your area.

SOIL ORGANIC MATTER

The organic matter of the soil on which the application is to be made must be known or determined prior to application. The use ra te of Acuron is based on percent soil organic matter.

REDUCED AND NO-TILL SYSTEMS

Acuron may be used in reduced and no-till system s. The highest levels of control will be obtained when applications are made as close to planting as possible. It is recommended that a burndown herbicide such as Gramoxone®, Touchdown  brands, Roundup® brands, or 2,4-D be tank mixed wi th Acuron in reduced or no-till systems if weeds are present at appl ication and the corn has not yet emerged.Acuron Herbicide Page 12

WEEDS CONTROLLED

Acuron applied as directed in this label wil l control or suppress the weeds listed in Tables 1 and 2. Additional weeds may be controlled with tank mixes. See the Acuron Tank Mix Combinations section for recommended tank mix combinations. Always consult the tank mix product labels for specific rates and use directions.Acuron Herbicide Page 13

6 In the High Plains and Intermountain areas of the West, where rainfall is sparse and erratic or

where irrigation is required, use only when corn (all types) or sorghum is to follow corn, or a crop of untreated corn (all types) or sorghum is to precede other rotational crops.Acuron Herbicide Page 19

APPLICATION PROCEDURES

ADJUVANTS

When an adjuvant is to be used with this produc t, the use of an adjuv ant that meets the standards of the Chemical Producers and Distributors A ssociation (CPDA) adjuvant certification program is recommended.

Where Acuron is applied after the corn has emerged, a non-ionic su rfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v (1 qt./100 gals.) may be used. The use of crop oil concentrate (COC) may result in temporary crop injury. If used, add COC at a rate not to exceed 1% v/v (1 gal./100 gals.) or not more t han the equivalent of 1 qt./A. Do not use nitrogen based adjuvants (AMS or UAN) or methylated seed oil (MSO) with Acur on when applied alone to emerged corn, or when Acuron is applie d as a postemergence tank mixture with other products, unless directed for a specific tank mix on this label or as part of a supplemental Acuron label. Any of these adjuvants may be used at a preemergence or preplant timing, i.e. where the corn cr op has not yet emerged to increase burndown activity on existing weeds. Do not apply Acuron to emerged sweet corn or yellow popcorn or severe crop injury may occur.

For Acuron tank mixtures with Ignite® Herbicide applied to emerged field corn (LibertyLink® hybrids only), AMS may be added as directed on the Ignite label. However, AMS should be the onl y adjuvant added to this tank mixture, or severe crop injury may occur.

Sprinkler Irrigation: Do not apply Acuron by sprinkler irrigation

. Use a sprinkler system only to incorporate Acuron after app lication. After Acuron has been applied, a sprinkler irrigation system set to deliver 1⁄2- 1 inch of water may be used to incorporate the product. Using more than 1 inch of wate r could result in reduced performance. On sandy soil low in organic matter, use no more than 1⁄2 inch of water. Do not use flood irrigation to apply or incorporate Acuron.

CULTIVATION

Should weeds develop; a shallo w cultivation or rotary hoei ng will generally result in improved weed control. If Acuron was incorp orated, cultivate less than half the depth of incorporation.

If cultivation is necessary due to soil crus ting, compaction, or escaped weeds, adjust equipment to run shallow and minimize soil movement. This will decrease the possibility of diluting or moving the her bicide from the weed control zone.Acuron Herbicide Page 20

SPRAY EQUIPMENT

Ground Application

Spray nozzles should be uniformly spaced, the same size and type, and should provide accurate and uniform application. Use spray nozzles that provide medium to coarse droplet size to avoid drift yet provide good cove rage. Ensure that all in-line strainer and nozzle screens in the sprayer are 50-mesh or coarser. Use a pum p that can maintain the manufacturer’s recommended pressure at the nozzles and provide proper agitation within the tank to keep the product dispers ed. Lower pressures may be used with extended range or drift reducti on nozzles as long as adequate coverage is maintained. Always ensure that agitation is maintained until spraying is completed, even if stopped for brief periods of time. If the agitation is stopped for more than 5 minutes, re-suspend the spray solution by running on fu ll agitation prior to spraying.

Preemergence: Apply in a spray volume of 10-80 gals./A.

Early Postemergence: . Good weed coverage is essentia l for optimum weed control. Boom height for broadcast over-the-top applic ations should be based on the height of the crop – at least 15 inches above the crop canopy, but only high enough to give uniform coverage. Apply in a spray volume of 10-30 gals./A. When weed foliage is dense, use a minimum spray volume of 20 gals/A. Flat fan nozzles of 80  or 110  are recommended for optimum postemergence coverage. Do not use floodjet nozzles or controlled droplet applic ation equipment for postemergenc e applications. Nozzles may be angled forward 45  to enhance penetration of the crop and provide better coverage.

Aerial Prohibition

Do not apply by air.

Spray Drift

Do not apply when weather conditions may caus e drift to nontarget areas. Drift may result in injury to adjacent crops and vegetat ion. To avoid spray drift, DO NOT apply when the wind speed is greater than 10 m ph or during periods of temperature inversions.

AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.

The interaction of equipment and weather re lated factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering these factors when making an decision.Acuron Herbicide Page 21

Information on Droplet Size

The most effective way to reduce spray drif t potential is to apply large droplets. Use only nozzles producing medium to ultra coarse droplets. Do not use nozzles producing fine droplets.

Controlling Droplet Size

 Volume

- Use high flow rate nozzles to apply t he highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets.

 Pressure

- Do not exceed the nozzle manufac turer’s recommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lower pressure produc es larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher rate nozzl es instead of increasing pressure.

 Number of Nozzles

- Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform
coverage.

Application Height

Applications must be made at th e lowest height above the tar get area that still provides uniform coverage of the target. Making applic ations at the lowest yet effective height reduces exposure of droplets to wind.

Wind

Drift potential is lowest when wind speeds are 10 mph or less. However, many factors, including droplet size, pressure, and equipm ent type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns.

Leave a 25-foot buffer downwind of the application to avoid drift to non-target areas. This buffer may be untreated corn rows or field border species maintained for this
purpose.

Temperature Inversions

Applications must not occur during a temper ature inversion because drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vert ical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cl oud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasi ng 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, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates anAcuron Herbicide Page 22

inversion, while smoke that moves upwar d and rapidly dissipates, indicates good vertical air mixing.

Non-Target Areas

Do not apply this pesticide when the produc t may drift to non-target areas (i.e. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops).

Cleaning Equipment After Application

Special attention must be given to cleaning equipment before spraying a crop other than corn. Mix only as much spray solution as needed.

1. Flush tank, hoses, boom, and nozzles with clean water. 2. Prepare a cleaning solution of 1 gal. of household ammonia per 25 gals. of water. Many commercial spray tank cleaners may be used. 3. Use a pressure washer to clean the inside of the spray tank with this solution. Take care to wash all parts of the tank , including the inside top surface. If a pressure washer is not available, comp letely fill the sprayer with the cleaning solution to ensure contact of the cleaning so lution with all internal surfaces of the tank and plumbing. Start agitation in the sprayer and thoroughly recirculate the cleaning solution for at least 15 minutes. All visible deposits must be removed from the spraying system. 4. Flush hoses, spray lines, and nozzles fo r at least 1 minute with the cleaning solution. 5. Dispose of rinsate from steps 1-3 in an appropriate manner. 6. Repeat steps 2-5. 7. Remove nozzles, screens, and strainers and clean separately in the ammonia solution after completing the above procedures. 8. Rinse the complete spraying system with clean water.

MIXING PROCEDURES

CARRIER

Preemergence Applications: Either clean water or liquid fertilizers, excluding suspension fertilizers, may be used as carrier s for preemergence applications. If fluid fertilizers are used, a compatib ility test must be done. See Compatibility Test section for compatibility testing. Ev en if Acuron is physically compat ible with a fluid fertilizer, constant agitation is necessary to mainta in a uniform mixture during application.Acuron Herbicide Page 23

Postemergence Applications: Use only clean water as the carrier when applying Acuron after corn emergence. Do not appl y Acuron to emerged sw eet corn or yellow
popcorn.

ADDING ACURON TO THE SPRAY TANK

The spray tank must be clean, thoroughl y rinsed and decontaminated before adding either Acuron alone or with tank mix partners. If water is us ed as the carrier, use clean water.

Acuron Applied Alone: When Acuron is used alone, add the recommended amount of Acuron to the spray tank when the tank is half full of the carrier, then add the rest of the water or fluid fertilizer. Provide sufficient agitation during mixing and application to maintain a uniform mixture.

Acuron Applied in Tank Mixtures: Refer to the secti ons on this label for recommended tank mixes. Always refer to l abels of the tank mix partners for mixing directions and precautions. Do not exc eed label dosage rates, nor combined maximum seasonal doses for atrazine, bicyclopyrone, mesotrione, or S -metolachlor. This product cannot be mixed with any product bearing a l abel prohibition against such mixing. If a tank mixture is used, a compatibility test must be done. See Compatibility Test section for details on the procedure for such a test.

If the tank mix partner is co mpatible, fill the tank half fu ll of the carrier. Start and continue agitation throughout mi xing and spraying. All return lines to the spray tank must discharge below the liquid level. Prepare the components and add in the following order:

1. If a wettable powder or dry flowable formu lation is used, make a slurry with water and add it slowly through the screen into t he tank. Agitate dur ing the procedure. 2. If a flowable formulation is used, add sl owly through screen into the tank. Mixing and compatibility may be improved when a dry flowable is diluted with water before adding to the tank. 3. Add Acuron. 4. Add any other tank mix products next with emulsifiable concentrates added last. 5. Add an adjuvant last, if needed. 6. Complete filling the sprayer tank and continue agitation. Apply as soon as possible after spray mixture is prepared. Do not leave mixture in spray tank overnight without agitation or unattended.

TANK MIX COMPATIBILITY TEST

A compatibility test is recommended before t ank mixing to ensure compatibility of Acuron with other pesticides. The following test assumes a spray volume of 25 gals/A. For other spray volumes, make appr opriate changes in the ingredients.Acuron Herbicide Page 24

Note: Nitrogen solutions or complete liquid fe rtilizers, excluding su spension fertilizers, may replace all or part of the water in the spray. Because liquid fertilizers vary, even within the same analysis, always check compatibility with pesticide(s) before use. Incompatibility of tank mi xtures is more common with mixtures of fertilizer and pesticides.

Test Procedure

1. Add 1.0 pt. of carrier (fert ilizer or water) to each of two 1 qt. jars with tight lids. Note: Use the same source of water that will be used for the tank mix and conduct the test at the temperatur e the tank mix will be applied. 2. To one of the jars, add 1/4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compat ibility agent approved for this use, such as Compex or Unite (1 /4 tsp. is equivalent to 2.0 pts./100 gals. spray). Shake or stir gently to mix. 3. To both jars, add the appr opriate amount of pesticide( s) in their relative proportions based on recommended label rate s. If more than one pesticide is used, add them separately with dry pes ticides first, flowables next, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After each addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix. 4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert each jar ten times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15-30 mi nutes and then look for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the jar, or other signs of incompatibility. Determ ine if the compatibility agent is needed in the spray mixture by comparing the two jars. If either mixture s eparates, but can be remixed readily, the mixture can be sprayed as long as good agitation is used. If the mixtures are incompatible, test the following methods of improving compatibility: (a) slurry the dry pesticide(s) in wate r before addition, or (b) add 1/2 the compatibility agent to the fertilizer or water and the other 1/2 to the emulsifiable concentrate or flowable pesti cide before addition to the mixture. If incompatibility is still observ ed, do not use the mixture. 5. After compatibility testing is comple te, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance with the Storage and Disposal section in this label.

CROP USE DIRECTIONS

Acuron is to be used for preemergence use for control of most annual grass and broadleaf weeds in field corn, seed corn, sila ge corn, sweet corn and yellow popcorn. Acuron may also be applied early postemergenc e for the control of broadleaf weeds in field corn, seed corn and silage corn. Do not apply Acuron to emerged sweet corn or yellow popcorn or severe crop injury will occur.

See Table 1 and 2 for a list of weeds controlled.

Acuron Use Rate: The soil organic matter content of the field on which Acuron is to be applied must be known. On so ils with greater than 10% organic matter, Acuron activity may be affected resulting in r educed or poor weed control.Acuron Herbicide Page 25

Soil Organic Matter Content Application rate 1

<3% 2.5 qt/A

>3% 3.0 qt/A

1 Do not exceed 3.0 qt/A of Acuron per year

Acuron APPLIED ALONE

Early Preplant: Acuron may be applied up to 28 days prior to planting.

Preemergence Surface: Acuron may be applied to the so il surface as a broadcast or banded application.

Early Postemergence: Acuron may be applied after corn (for grain, seed, or silage) emergence. See the “ Adjuvants ” section of this label for specific recommendations. Do not apply early postemergence to corn in li quid fertilizer or severe crop injury may occur. Apply this treatment to small br oadleaf weeds (less than 3 inches tall). Occasional corn leaf burn may re sult, but this will not affect la ter growth or corn yield. Do not apply Acuron to emerged sweet corn or yellow popcorn or severe crop injury may occur. Postemergence applications to corn must be made before crop reaches 12 inches in height.

This product will not provide c onsistent control of emerged grass weeds. For control of emerged grass weeds a grass herbicide tank mix may be required (see tank mix section of this label). Tank mixes of AAtrex can improve control of emerged annual grass and broadleaf weeds Refer to t he AAtrex label for weeds controlled and use restrictions.

If Bicep II Magnum®, Bicep Lite II Magnum®, AAtrex (atrazine), Dual Magnum®, or Dual II Magnum® alone or in tank mixtures have been applied early preplant, preplant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence, limit the Acuron early post application to not exceed a total of 2.5 lbs. of acti ve ingredient of atrazine or 3.75 lbs. of S

metolachlor active per acre, or illegal residues may result.

Split Application: Acuron may be applied as a split applic ation in corn (for grain, seed, or silage). For a split applic ation program, apply one half to two thirds of the labeled rate of Acuron prior to crop emergence followed by a sec ond Acuron application at one third to one half of the labeled rate as a post application after corn emergence. The total amount of Acuron applied in the split application program cannot exceed 2.5 qt/A in soils with <3% OM and cannot exceed 3.0 qt/A in soils with > 3% OM. Refer to the Early Postemergence section above for instructions on post emergence applications.Acuron Herbicide Page 26

ACURON TANK MIX COMBINATIONS

Use of Spray Adjuvants with Tank Mixtures

When Acuron is used as a preemergence herbic ide, and before weeds have emerged, spray adjuvants have little or no influence on performance. However, in burndown situations where the weeds have emerged and the corn has not, an adjuvant may be used with Acuron applied alone or when app lied in tank mixture with a burndown herbicide as allowed on the individual product labels. Use only those adjuvants approved for agricultural crop use. See the “ Adjuvants ” section under “ Application Procedures ” for further instructions.

Burndown Combinations for Reduced Tillage Situations

In reduced or no-till corn and before the cr op has emerged, Acuron tank mixes with Gramoxone Inteon or Touchdo wn brands (or other glyphosate products such as Roundup brands) will burndown emerged weeds. For best results, tank mixes of Acuron plus Gramoxone should be applied to emerged weeds that are 1-6 inches in height. Consult the Gramoxone, Touchdown brand, or glyphosate product label for further information on weeds c ontrolled and application timings.

Preemergence Tank Mixtures App lied Before Corn Emergence

The tank mix partners listed in Table 3 may be used in either conventional, reduced, or no-till systems and be applied by t he same methods and at the same timings as Acuron unless otherwise specified in the tank mi x product label. Follow all tank mix product labels for use rates and restri ctions. Perform a compatibilit y test prior to spraying the tank mix application. Tank mixtures with 2,4-D are allo wed, but should only be done with extreme care with regard to ensuring co mpatibility before mi xing a load. 2,4-D products, and even batches, vary greatly wit h regard to compatibility and should be checked each time a water or carrier sour ce, water or carrier temperature, product source, or tank mixture recipe is changed.Acuron Herbicide Page 27

Acuron Programs with Glyphosate in Glyphosate Tolerant Corn

Acuron may be applied early postemergence at a ra te of 1.5 - 2 qts./A in tank mixture with a solo glyphosate product (e.g. Touchdown or Roundup brands) that is registered for use over-the-top in glyphosate tolerant field corn (e.g. Roundup Ready or AgrisureTM GT Corn). To minimize weed competition wit h the crop, target t he application of this mixture to weeds in the 1 to 2 inch range. Do not apply this mixture to corn that is greater than 12 inches tall. If the gly phosate product has a built-in adjuvant system (i.e. the product label does not ask for additional adjuvant), only spray-grade ammoniumAcuron Herbicide Page 28

sulfate (AMS) at 8.5 lbs./100 gal should be added to this mixture. If the glyphosate product label calls for an adjuvant in addition to AMS, add a non-ionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v and AMS to this spray mixture. Do not add urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), crop oil concentrate (COC), or methylat ed seed oil (MSO) type adjuvants to these mixtures, or crop injury may occur. Follow al l directions for use and restrictions on the glyphosate product label.

Alternatively, Acuron may be app lied preemergence at a rate down to 2 qts./A as part of a two-pass weed control system when follow ed by a postemergence application of a glyphosate based product in glyphosate toler ant corn (e.g. Roundup Ready or Agrisure GT Corn). When used in this way, Acuron will provide reduced competition of the weeds listed in Table 1 for a period of 30 or more da ys, thus improving the timing flexibility and effectiveness of the glyphosate based product application. Fo llow all directions for use and restrictions on the glyphosate product label.

Acuron may be applied preemergenc e at 1.25 – 1.5 qts./A as part of a two-pass weed control system when followed by Halex® GT post-emergence in glyphosate tolerant corn (e.g. Roundup Ready or Agrisure GT Corn). Follow all directions for use and restrictions on each product label.

Acuron Programs for LibertyLink Corn

Acuron may be applied early postemergence at a ra te of 1.5 - 2 qts./A in tank mixture with Ignite and applied over-the-top in field corn designated as LibertyLink. To minimize weed competition with the crop, target the applic ation of this mixture to weeds in the 1 to 2 inch range. Do not apply this mixture to co rn that is greater t han 12 inches tall. Ammonium sulfate (AMS) may be added as a spra y adjuvant as directed on the Ignite label. However, AMS should be the only adjuvant added to this tank mixture. Do not add urea ammonium nitrate (UAN ), crop oil concentrate (COC ), non-ionic surfactants (NIS), or methylated seed oil (MSO) type adjuv ants to these mixtures, or crop injury may occur. Follow all directions for use and restrictions on the Ignite product label.

Alternatively, Acuron may be app lied preemergence at a rate down to 2 qts./A as part of a two-pass weed control system when foll owed by a postemergence application of Ignite in field corn designated as LibertyLi nk. When used in this way, Acuron will provide reduced competition of the weeds list ed in Table 1 for a period of 30 or more days, thus improving the timing flexibility an d effectiveness of the Ignite application. Follow all directions for use and rest rictions on the Ignite product label.

Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) th rough soil and can enter ground water which may be used as drinking water. Atrazine has bee n found in ground water. Users are advised not to apply atrazine to sand and loamy sand soils where the water table (ground water) is close to the surface and where these so ils are very permeable, i.e., well-drained. Your local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of soil in your area and the location of ground water.

S

-metolachlor has the potential to leach th rough soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this product in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water tabl e is shallow may result in ground water contamination.

Bicyclopyrone is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.

Surface Water Advisory

This product has a high potential for reac hing surface water via runoff for several months or more after applic ation. 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 potential loading of bicyclopyrone from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.

Mixing/Loading Instructions

Care must be taken when using this product to prevent back-siphoning into wells, spills, or improper disposal of excess pestic ide, spray mixtures, or rinsates.

Check valves or antisiphoning device s must be used on mixing equipment.

This product must not be mixed/loaded or used within 50 ft. of wells, including abandoned wells, drainage wells, and sink holes. Operations that involve mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing to this product into or from pesticide handling or application equipment or containers withi n 50 ft. of any well are proh ibited, unless conducted on an impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be positioned on or moved across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained to contain any product spills or equipment lea ks, container or equipment rinse or wash water, and rain water that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to either flow over or from the pad, which means the pad must be self-contained. The padAcuron Herbicide Page 35

shall be sloped to facilitate material remo val. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient capacity to contain, at a minimum, 110% of the capacity of th e largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient size to completely exclude precipit ation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum containment capacity of 100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad. Containment capacities as described above shall be maintained at all times. The above specified minimum containment capacities do not apply to vehicles when delivering pesticide shipments to the mixing/loading site.

Additional State imposed r equirements regarding well head setbacks and operational area containment mu st be observed.

This product must not be mixed or loaded within 50 ft. of perennial or intermittent streams and rivers, natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. This product may not be applied within 66 ft. of the poi nts where field surface water runoff enters perennial or intermittent streams and rivers or within 200 ft. from the edge of nat ural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. If this product is applied to highly erodible land, the 66 ft. buffer or setback from runoff entry poi nts must be planted to crop, or seeded with grass or other suitable crop.

Tile-Outletted Terraced Fi elds Containing Standpipes

One of the following restrict ions must be used in applying atrazine to tile-outletted terraced fields containing standpipes:

1. Do not apply this product within 66 ft. of standpipes in tile-outletted terraced fields. 2. Apply this product to the entire tile -outletted terraced field and immediately incorporate it to a depth of 2- 3 inches in the entire field. 3. Apply this product to the entire tile-out letted terraced field under a no-till practice only when a high crop residue management practice is practiced. High crop residue management is described as a cr op management practice where little or no crop residue is removed from the field during and after crop harvest.
