Crops, Staging and Rates
Crop
Timing
Rate per acre
Alfalfa (newly seeded pure stand) for forage
or seed production or established for seed
production
Apply after the first trifoliate leaf stage. For new
stands, before the alfalfa reaches 30 cm in height
for established stands.
85
mL/acre plus non-ionic
surfactant such as Agral 90 or
AgSurf: 0.25% v/v.
Chickling vetch/grass pea (seed production only) Apply at the 5 -7 leaf stage.
Dry beans (pinto, pink, red)
Up to and including the second trifoliate leaf
stage.
Field peas
May be applied up to the sixth above-ground
node stage (6 true leaves).
Caution
:
Pursuit/MultiStar/Gladiator/Kamekaze/Phantom are only registered in the Black and Gray Wooded soil zones of the Prairie Provinces. Pursuit/
MultiStar/Gladiator/Gladiator/Kamekaze/Phantom are NOT registered for use in the Brown and Dark Brown soil zones with the exception of dry beans and
alfalfa (newly seeded pure stand for forage or seed production) under irrigation.
Weeds and Staging
Apply early post-emergence (up to and including the 4 leaf stage), unless otherwise indicated.

Application Information
With
:
Ground equipment only. Do not apply by air.
Water volume
: 40 - 160
L/acre.
Mixing Instructions
Use mixing instructions “a” on page 13.
Application Tips
Do not spray if temperatures of +5ºC or lower are forecasted within 3 days of application. Temperatures near freezing
(
below 5ºC) will prevent optimum herbicide performance, as weeds are not actively growing.
How it Works
Absorbed by foliage and roots. Disrupts plant metabolism causing growth to stop. Works best under good growing
conditions.
Expected Results
Susceptible weeds stop growing within 24 - 48 hours. Yellow striping and purplish or reddish discolouration of the
leaves may occur. Leaves begin to die in 3 - 10 days starting with the youngest and moving to the older leaves. Death
of the plant may occur in 1 - 3 weeks.
