Environmental Hazards 

Do not apply directly to water, to areas where 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 neighboring areas. Do not apply when weather 

conditions favor drift from treated areas. 

 
Acuron Herbicide

Ground Water Advisory 

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

Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) through soil and can enter ground water which may 

be used as drinking water. Atrazine has been 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 soils 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 through 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 table 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 reaching surface water via runoff for several 

months or more 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 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 pesticide, spray mixtures, or rinsates. 

Check valves or antisiphoning devices 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 within 50 ft. of any well are prohibited, 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 leaks, 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 pad 
Acuron Herbicide 

Page 5 

shall be sloped to facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient 

capacity to contain, at a minimum, 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide 

container or application equipment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of 

sufficient size to completely exclude precipitation 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 requirements regarding well head setbacks and operational 

area containment must 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 points where field surface water runoff enters perennial or 

intermittent streams and rivers or within 200 ft. from the edge of natural or impounded 

lakes and reservoirs. If this product is applied to highly erodible land, the 66 ft. buffer or 

setback from runoff entry points must be planted to crop, or seeded with grass or other 

suitable crop. 

Tile-Outletted Terraced Fields Containing Standpipes 

One of the following restrictions 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-outletted 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 crop management practice where little or 

no crop residue is removed from the field during and after crop harvest. 

Physical and Chemical Hazards

Do not use or store near heat or open flame.

PRODUCT INFORMATION 

Acuron may be used preemergence and postemergence 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 application must be made prior to crop emergence, (i.e., 

preemergence) or severe crop injury may occur. 

Acuron is a combination of the herbicides: atrazine, bicyclopyrone, mesotrione and Smetolachlor 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 pesticide control agency for additional information. 

It is a violation of this label to deviate from state use regulations. 

 When tank mixing or sequentially applying atrazine or products 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 postemergence 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 preemergence application on 

highly erodible (as defined by the Natural Resource Conservation Service) 

soils if <30% of the surface is covered with plant residues; or 2.0 lbs. a.i./A if 

only applied postemergence.

Note: For purposes of calculating total atrazine active ingredient applied, Acuron 

contains 1.0 lb. a.i. atrazine 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 mesotrione active ingredient must be applied 

per acre of corn per year), and S-metolachlor (the maximum 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 conditions, Acuron will not 

harm the treated crop. During germination 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, the 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 consistent control at a level below that 

generally considered acceptable for commercial weed control. 

 Dry weather following preemergence 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 corn injury. Temporary corn injury may 

occur if Acuron is applied to emerged corn where organophosphate insecticides 

other than Counter were applied at planting. 

 Postemergence (emerged corn) applications of any organophosphate or carbamate 

insecticide within 7 days before or 7 days after a Acuron application may result in 

severe corn injury. 

ACURON USE RESTRICTIONS 

 Grazing Restriction: To avoid possible illegal residues, do not graze or feed forage 

from treated areas for 45 days 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 only) or yellow popcorn (preemergence 

applications only). 

 Do not use Acuron in the culture of white popcorn or ornamental (Indian) corn or 

injury may occur. 

 Do not contaminate irrigation water used for crops or water used for domestic 

purposes. 

 Thoroughly clean sprayer or other application 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 precautions and limitations on this label 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 carbamate 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 atrazine, bicyclopyrone, mesotrione and S-metolachlor 

(Group 5 (atrazine), 15 (S-metolachlor), 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 glycine 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 resistance to HPPD inhibitors, implement a 

program including both preemergence 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 herbicide will be appropriate for the weeds 

present. Scout fields and eliminate weed escapes. If suspected weed resistance is 

observed against a particular weed species contact your Syngenta or retailer 

representative or call Syngenta Customer Service (1-800-334-9481). Lack of weed 

control is not necessarily an indicator of weed resistance. 

Consider weed resistance management strategies that includes two or more modes of 

action where a minimum of two modes of action are effective at controlling the target 

weed when either are applied alone. 

Read and follow all label directions. 

Acuron Herbicide contains four herbicide active 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 pest 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 weed authorities for additional Integrated Pest 

Management strategies established 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 rate of Acuron is based on percent soil organic 

matter. 

REDUCED AND NO-TILL SYSTEMS 

Acuron may be used in reduced and no-till systems. 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 with Acuron in reduced or no-till systems if 

weeds are present at application and the corn has not yet emerged. 
Acuron Herbicide 

Page 12 

WEEDS CONTROLLED 

Acuron applied as directed in this label will 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.

APPLICATION PROCEDURES 

ADJUVANTS 

When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, the use of an adjuvant that meets the 

standards of the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) adjuvant 

certification program is recommended. 

Where Acuron is applied after the corn has emerged, a non-ionic surfactant (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 than the equivalent of 1 qt./A. Do not use nitrogen based 

adjuvants (AMS or UAN) or methylated seed oil (MSO) with Acuron when applied alone 

to emerged corn, or when Acuron is applied 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 crop 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 only 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 application. 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 water 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 shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing will generally result in 

improved weed control. If Acuron was incorporated, cultivate less than half the depth of 

incorporation. 

If cultivation is necessary due to soil crusting, compaction, or escaped weeds, adjust 

equipment to run shallow and minimize soil movement. This will decrease the 

possibility of diluting or moving the herbicide 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 coverage. Ensure that all in-line strainer and 

nozzle screens in the sprayer are 50-mesh or coarser. Use a pump that can maintain 

the manufacturer’s recommended pressure at the nozzles and provide proper agitation 

within the tank to keep the product dispersed. Lower pressures may be used with 

extended range or drift reduction 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 full agitation prior to spraying. 

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

 

Early Postemergence:. Good weed coverage is essential for optimum weed control. 

Boom height for broadcast over-the-top applications 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 application equipment for postemergence 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 cause drift to nontarget areas. Drift may 

result in injury to adjacent crops and vegetation. To avoid spray drift, DO NOT apply 

when the wind speed is greater than 10 mph 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 related 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 drift 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 the highest practical spray volume. 

Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. 

 Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer’s recommended pressures. 

For many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow 

rates are needed, use higher rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. 

 Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform 

coverage. 

Application Height 

Applications must be made at the lowest height above the target area that still provides 

uniform coverage of the target. Making applications 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 equipment 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 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 to the 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, 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 an 
Acuron Herbicide 

Page 22 

inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates, indicates good 

vertical air mixing. 

Non-Target Areas 

Do not apply this pesticide when the product 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, completely fill the sprayer with the cleaning 

solution to ensure contact of the cleaning solution 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 for 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 carriers for preemergence applications. If fluid 

fertilizers are used, a compatibility test must be done. See Compatibility Test section 

for compatibility testing. Even if Acuron is physically compatible with a fluid fertilizer, 

constant agitation is necessary to maintain 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 apply Acuron to emerged sweet corn or yellow 

popcorn. 

ADDING ACURON TO THE SPRAY TANK 

The spray tank must be clean, thoroughly rinsed and decontaminated before adding 

either Acuron alone or with tank mix partners. If water is used 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 sections on this label for 

recommended tank mixes. Always refer to labels of the tank mix partners for mixing 

directions and precautions. Do not exceed 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 label 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 compatible, fill the tank half full of the carrier. Start and 

continue agitation throughout mixing 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 formulation is used, make a slurry with water 

and add it slowly through the screen into the tank. Agitate during the procedure. 

2. If a flowable formulation is used, add slowly 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 tank 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 appropriate changes in the ingredients. 
Acuron Herbicide 

Page 24 

Note: Nitrogen solutions or complete liquid fertilizers, excluding suspension 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 mixtures is more common with mixtures of fertilizer and 

pesticides. 

Test Procedure 

1. Add 1.0 pt. of carrier (fertilizer 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 temperature the tank mix will be applied. 

2. To one of the jars, add 1/4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility 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 appropriate amount of pesticide(s) in their relative 

proportions based on recommended label rates. If more than one pesticide is 

used, add them separately with dry pesticides 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 minutes and then look for separation, large 

flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the jar, or other signs of 

incompatibility. Determine if the compatibility agent is needed in the spray 

mixture by comparing the two jars. If either mixture separates, 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 water 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 pesticide before addition to the mixture. If 

incompatibility is still observed, do not use the mixture. 

5. After compatibility testing is complete, 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, silage corn, sweet corn and yellow popcorn. 

Acuron may also be applied early postemergence 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 soils with greater than 10% organic matter, Acuron activity 

may be affected resulting in reduced or poor weed control. 
Acuron Herbicide 

Page 25 

Soil Organic Matter Content Application rate1

<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 soil 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 liquid fertilizer or severe crop injury may 

occur. Apply this treatment to small broadleaf weeds (less than 3 inches tall). 

Occasional corn leaf burn may result, but this will not affect later 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 consistent 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 the 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 active ingredient of atrazine or 3.75 lbs. of Smetolachlor active per acre, or illegal residues may result. 

Split Application: Acuron may be applied as a split application in corn (for grain, seed, 

or silage). For a split application program, apply one half to two thirds of the labeled 

rate of Acuron prior to crop emergence followed by a second 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 herbicide, 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 applied 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 crop has emerged, Acuron tank mixes with 

Gramoxone Inteon or Touchdown 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 controlled and application timings. 

Preemergence Tank Mixtures Applied 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 the same methods and at the same timings as Acuron 

unless otherwise specified in the tank mix product label. Follow all tank mix product 

labels for use rates and restrictions. Perform a compatibility test prior to spraying the 

tank mix application. Tank mixtures with 2,4-D are allowed, but should only be done 

with extreme care with regard to ensuring compatibility before mixing a load. 2,4-D 

products, and even batches, vary greatly with regard to compatibility and should be 

checked each time a water or carrier source, water or carrier temperature, product 

source, or tank mixture recipe is changed.

Acuron Programs with Glyphosate in Glyphosate Tolerant Corn 

Acuron may be applied early postemergence at a rate 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 with the crop, target the 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 glyphosate product has a built-in adjuvant system (i.e. 

the product label does not ask for additional adjuvant), only spray-grade ammonium 
Acuron 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 methylated seed oil (MSO) type adjuvants to these 

mixtures, or crop injury may occur. Follow all directions for use and restrictions on the 

glyphosate product label. 

Alternatively, Acuron may be applied preemergence at a rate down to 2 qts./A as part of 

a two-pass weed control system when followed by a postemergence application of a 

glyphosate based product in glyphosate tolerant 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 days, thus improving the timing flexibility and 

effectiveness of the glyphosate based product application. Follow all directions for use 

and restrictions on the glyphosate product label. 

Acuron may be applied preemergence 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 rate 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 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. 

Ammonium sulfate (AMS) may be added as a spray 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 adjuvants to these mixtures, or crop injury 

may occur. Follow all directions for use and restrictions on the Ignite product label. 

Alternatively, Acuron may be applied preemergence at a rate down to 2 qts./A as part of 

a two-pass weed control system when followed by a postemergence application of 

Ignite in field corn designated as LibertyLink. When used in this way, Acuron will 

provide reduced competition of the weeds listed in Table 1 for a period of 30 or more 

days, thus improving the timing flexibility and effectiveness of the Ignite application. 

Follow all directions for use and restrictions on the Ignite product label.

Environmental Hazards 

Do not apply directly to water, to areas where 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 neighboring areas. Do not apply when weather 

conditions favor drift from treated areas.

Ground Water Advisory 

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

Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) through soil and can enter ground water which may 

be used as drinking water. Atrazine has been 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 soils 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 through 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 table 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 reaching surface water via runoff for several 

months or more 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 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 pesticide, spray mixtures, or rinsates. 

Check valves or antisiphoning devices 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 within 50 ft. of any well are prohibited, 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 leaks, 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 pad 
Acuron Herbicide 

Page 35 

shall be sloped to facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient 

capacity to contain, at a minimum, 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide 

container or application equipment on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of 

sufficient size to completely exclude precipitation 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 requirements regarding well head setbacks and operational 

area containment must 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 points where field surface water runoff enters perennial or 

intermittent streams and rivers or within 200 ft. from the edge of natural or impounded 

lakes and reservoirs. If this product is applied to highly erodible land, the 66 ft. buffer or 

setback from runoff entry points must be planted to crop, or seeded with grass or other 

suitable crop. 

Tile-Outletted Terraced Fields Containing Standpipes 

One of the following restrictions 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-outletted 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 crop management practice where little or 

no crop residue is removed from the field during and after crop harvest. 

Physical and Chemical Hazards

Do not use or store near heat or open flame.
