Application Information
With
:
Apply with ground equipment or by air in wheat and barley only.
Water volume
:
Corn: 80 - 120 L/acre. All other crops: 40 L/acre. Air: wheat and barley 8 L/acre.
Application Tips
Avoid spraying crops during adverse growing conditions, especially drought, high temperatures (over 29° C) or in
high humidity.
How it Works
A contact herbicide so good coverage is essential. Inhibits respiration and photosynthesis causing death.
Expected Results
Weeds turn brown and die within 3 - 5 days - more rapid under good growing conditions and when applied
to seedling weeds. Poor results can be expected if weeds past 4 leaf stage, poor spray coverage or lower than
recommended rate used. Injury to corn may occur if under stress.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
Rainfall within 2 hours of application may reduce weed control.
Grazing
:
Wheat, barley, oats and seedling alfalfa - Do not use treated crops for grazing of livestock or green feed
until 30 days after application. Do not cut treated crops for forage until 30 days after application. CAUTION: Do not
graze other treated crops or cut for feed unless specified above; sufficient data are not available to support such use.
Re-cropping
:
None.
Environmental Precautions
Bromoxynil is moderately to highly toxic to aquatic organisms and non-target terrestrial plants. Avoid contamination
of aquatic systems during application.
Runoff
:
Avoid contamination of aquatic areas as a result of runoff.
Toxicity
Moderate to high oral toxicity. Acute oral LD
50
(
rats) = 368 mg/kg. Very toxic to fish. Intake of a large dose may
cause convulsions, sudden collapse and coma. Can be absorbed through the skin.
