RESISTANT WEED WARNING

OzCrop Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 Herbicide is a member of the Glycine group of herbicides. Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 has the inhibition of EPSP syntheses mode of action. For weed resistance management Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 is a Group M Herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 and other Group M herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 or other Group M herbicides.

Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, OzCrop Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 to control resistant weeds.

GENERAL RATE
0.24-7.2L/ha

Please refer to the label for specified application rates and weeds controlled.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

RESTRAINTS-------------
DO NOT disturb treated weeds by cultivation, sowing or grazing for 1 day after treatment of annual weeds and 7 days for perennial weeds.

DO NOT treat weeds under poor growing conditions or dormant conditions as occur in drought, waterlogging, disease, insect damage or following frost. Reduced control may also occur when treating weeds heavily covered with dust or silt. Rainfall occurring up to 6 hours after application may reduce effectiveness. Heavy rainfall within 2 hours of application may wash the chemical off the foliage and a repeat treatment may be required.

NOT TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE, OR IN ANY MANNER, CONTRARY TO THIS LABEL UNLESS AUTHORISED UNDER APPROPRIATE LEGISLATION.

WITHHOLDING PERIOD --------------
NOT REQUIRED WHEN USED AS DIRECTED. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Product Description OzCrop Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 Herbicide is translocated throughout the plant where it kills both foliage and roots. Ideally the best time to use the product is when target species are in a state of active growth, moderate climatic conditions are present and weeds are free of disease and dirt cover.

While cool and cloudy conditions can sometimes delay the appearance of chemical activity, it can generally be expected that symptoms of chemical effect will appear 2- 7 days after spaying of annual species and 2-3 weeks after spaying perennial species The symptoms are demonstrated by a yellowing and accompanying wilting, progressing to brown-out.

SAFETY TO CROPS --------------------
DO NOT allow the product to come into contact with the foliage, fruit or green stems of desirable crops plants or trees, as the nature of the chemical is non-selective. Some useful guidelines that can help in this regard are:
1. Don't use if the wind is blowing towards desirable plants in close proximity.
2. Avoid fine droplet settings (150 micron or less) when calibrating.
3. Avoid spraying in winds greater than 8 km/hr, still air and hot days.

While the product is rapidly inactivated on contact with the soil it is important certain factors are kept in mind:
1. Where there is a light presence of unwanted vegetative matter sowing can commence from one day after spraying.
2. Where the plant cover is heavy it is better to allow vegetative matter to decay prior to sowing as crop establishment may be retarded.

SPRAY PREPARATION -----------------
1. Make sure the spray tank is clean and residues from previous usage have been removed.
2. Half fill the spray tank with clean water, bearing in mind that less than perfect results may occur if water containing soil particles is used or hard water containing calcium salt. Glyphosate may be inactivated by water, which is contaminated with clay particles or soil.
3. Add the required amount of Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450 as per the Direction for Use table.
4. Mix well keeping filling hose below surface to avoid foaming.
5. Add water to fill vat.
6. Remove hose from tank as soon as full to prevent back siphoning.

Note:
DO NOT use mechanical agitators, as they cause excessive foaming. DO NOT add non-approved herbicides and insecticides.

Note:
Use only plastic or plastic lined, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, brass or fibreglass tanks. Galvanised steel or unlined steel spray tanks can react with the product to form hydrogen gas, which can form a combustible gas mixture, which can be flashed by ignition sources.

SURFACTANT ----------------------
The addition of surfactant may improve weed control where water rates are high or product rates low. Suggested surfactant rates are 200 mL/100 L of 1000 g/L non-ionic surfactant or 250-500 mL of 700 g/L surfactant.

DO NOT add any other agricultural chemicals, spraying oils or other materials except as directed on the label.

RAINFALL EFFECTS -------------
Rain within 1 hour of spraying can mean that the chemical may be washed off the plant, with the result that the herbicide may not be totally effective. Respraying may be needed. Normal rain up to 6 hours after application may reduce effectiveness. Lack of rain, i.e. drought conditions, is not time to spray, as vegetation will not be receptive to uptaking chemical. Likewise, in waterlogged conditions or after frost similar comments apply.

SOIL PERSISTENCE ------------------
The product is not persistent in soils and is rapidly broken down by microbes present in the soil as well as by hydrolysis caused by free standing moisture or soil moisture that may be present in soil particles. Should residual activity be needed refer to “Compatibility Section” of this label.

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT --------------
Types of Equipment

The following types of equipment may be used in applying Glyphosate Xtraqatic 450:
• Knapsack
• Handgun
• Boom
• Wiper
• Aerial

For Knapsack and Handgun Equipment:
Maximum efficiency can be achieved by using a D6 spray plate and applying at a pressure of 400-700 kPa. As the plant is translocated through contact points on the plant, good coverage is needed to maximise uptake by the plant. Volume used per given area will vary according to the density of the target species present.

For Boom Equipment:
Maximum efficiency can be achieved by using fan nozzles at a pressure of 240-280 kPa. Water volumes per hectare of treated area can vary depending on density of the target species but no more than 200 litres would be necessary. In conservation tillage situations volumes in the 50100 litre/ha range would suffice.

For Aerial Equipment:
Using Micronair and boom equipment a droplet size of 250-350 micron diameter is recommended. A swath width in the range of 15-17 metres is most appropriate for this form of spraying. Minimum spray volume would be 15 litres/ha.
