Environmental HazardsDO NOT apply directly to water, areas where surface wateris present, or intertidal areas below the mean high watermark. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing ofequipment washwaters or rinsate.

Dimethenamid-P has properties that may result in ground-water contamination. Application in areas where soils arepermeable or coarse and groundwater is near the surfacecould result in groundwater contamination.

Dimethenamid-P has properties that may result in surfacewater contamination via dissolved runoff and runoff erosion.Practices should be followed to minimize the potential fordissolved runoff and/or runoff erosion.

Point source contamination: To prevent point sourcecontamination, DO NOT mix or load this or any other pesti-cide product within 50 feet of wells (including abandonedwells and drainage wells), sink holes, perennial or intermit-tent streams and rivers, and natural or impounded lakesand reservoirs. This setback does not apply to properlycapped or plugged abandoned wells and does not apply toimpervious pad or dike mixing/loading areas as describedbelow.

Mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing operations performedwithin 50 feet of a well are allowed only when conductedon an impervious pad constructed to withstand the weightof the heaviest load that may be on or move across thepad. The pad must be self contained to prevent surfacewater flow over or from the pad. The pad capacity must bemaintained at 110% that of the largest pesticide containeror application equipment used on the pad and have suffi-cient capacity to contain all product spills, equipment orcontainer leaks, equipment wash waters, and rainwater thatmay fall on the pad. The containment capacity does notapply to vehicles delivering pesticide shipments to the mix-ing/loading site. States may have in effect additionalrequirements regarding wellhead setbacks and operationalcontainment.

Care must be taken when using this product to prevent 1) back siphoning into wells, 2) spills, or 3) improper dis-posal of excess pesticide, spray mixes, or rinsates.

Check valves or anti-siphoning devices must be used on allmixing equipment.

Movement dissolved in runoff or through soil:DO NOT apply under conditions which favor runoff. DO NOT apply to impervious substrates such as paved orhighly compacted surfaces or frozen soils. Groundwatercontamination may occur in areas where soils are perme-able or coarse and groundwater is near the surface. Tominimize the possibility of groundwater contamination,carefully follow application rate recommendations as affect-ed by soil type in the General Information section of thislabel. DO NOT apply if all three criteria exist: coarse soilsclassified as sand (does not include loamy sand or sandyloam), less than 3% organic matter (as determined by soiltests, if not known), and where depth to ground water is30 feet or less.

Movement by water erosion of treated soil: DO NOT apply or incorporate this product by flood or fur-row irrigation. Ensure treated areas have received at least0.5" of rainfall before using tailwater for subsequent irriga-tion of other fields.

1 Partial control or suppression only. To complement control,Outlook should be used in tank mixes or sequential applica-tions with other herbicides that provide additional control ofthese weed species.

2 For best control of these species, use the highest rate speci-fied by soil type. If dry conditions exist near application orexcessive rainfall occurs early in season, a postemergenceherbicide or cultivation may be required to help control theseweeds.

5

Mode of ActionOutlook® herbicide is a root and shoot growth inhibitorthat controls susceptible germinating seedlings before orsoon after they emerge from the soil.

Cleaning Spray EquipmentClean application equipment thoroughly by using a strongdetergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to themanufacturer's directions and then triple rinsing the equip-ment before and after applying this product.

Application Instructions

Outlook will provide most effective weed control whenapplied by ground or aerial equipment, and subsequentlyincorporated into soil by rainfall, sprinkler irrigation, ormechanical tillage prior to weed seedling emergence fromsoil. Outlook can also be applied through herbigation.Outlook is recommended for preplant incorporated, pre-plant surface, preemergence, early postemergence or layby(corn) treatment. Outlook may be applied using eitherwater or sprayable fluid fertilizer as the spray carrier.Additionally, Outlook may be impregnated on and appliedwith dry bulk fertilizer. Sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier isnot recommended for use after crop emergence. Refer toAdditives for more information.

Application RateUse rates for Outlook when used alone, in tank mix, orsequential applications are given in Table 2. Refer toCrop-Specific Information for additional rate information.Use rates of this product may vary by soil texture andorganic matter. Soil texture groupings used in this label arecoarse (sand, loamy sand, sandy loam), medium (silt, siltloam, loam, sandy clay loam), and fine (sandy clay, siltyclay, silty clay loam, clay loam, and clay). DO NOT apply tosand-textured soil with less than 3% organic matter (asdetermined by soil tests, if not known) where depth togroundwater is 30 feet or less. When use rates areexpressed in ranges, use the lower rates for more coarselytextured soils lower in organic matter and use the higherrates for more finely textured soils that are high in organicmatter.

Preplant Surface Applications: For use in minimumtillage or no-tillage production systems, apply Outlookalone or in tank mixes up to 45 days before planting. Whenmaking early preplant applications (15-45 days prior toplanting), use the highest rate specified for the specific soiltype. Early preplant applications are not recommended foruse on coarse-textured soils or in areas where averageannual rainfall (or rainfall + irrigation) typically exceeds 40".Early preplant applications may be applied as part of a splitapplication program where the second application is madeafter planting (use 2/3 of Outlook rate early followed by1/3 of rate after planting). A split application is recommend-ed when the initial application is made more than 30 daysprior to planting. Tank mixes with postemergence herbi-cides such as glyphosate, or Touchdown® (glyphosate), orGramoxone® Extra (paraquat) must be used when weedsare present at the time of application.

Preplant Incorporated Applications: Apply Outlook andincorporate into the upper (1"-2") soil surface up to 2 weeks before planting. Use a harrow, rolling cultivator, fin-ishing disk, or other implement capable of giving uniform

shallow incorporation. Avoid deeper incorporation orreduced weed control or crop injury may result.

Preemergence Surface Applications: Broadcast treat-ment uniformly to the soil surface after planting and beforecrop emergence. Rainfall, sprinkler irrigation, or shallowmechanical incorporation after application is required tomove this product into the upper soil surface where weedseeds germinate. If adequate rainfall or irrigation does notoccur and weed seedling emergence begins, a shallow cul-tivation or rotary hoeing will improve performance.

Early Postemergence Applications: Outlook must beapplied prior to weed seedling emergence or in a tank mixwith products that control the emerged weeds. Refer toCrop-Specific Information for specific postemergenceapplication recommendations by crop.

Layby Application: Use Outlook in field corn, seed cornand popcorn. See Crop-Specific Information - Corn formore details on layby application.

Table 2. Outlook Application Rates Per Acre1,2,3

Split Applications: Outlook may be used in split applica-tion programs where applications are made as part of themethods described above. If applications are less than 2weeks apart, the total Outlook rate used must not exceedthe maximum rate given for each specific soil type. If appli-cations are 2 weeks or more apart, a total Outlook userate of up to 21 fluid ounces per acre per year may beused on any soil type.

Fall Applications:For use only in the following states: North Dakota,South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, north ofHighway 136 in Illinois and north of Highway 91 inNebraska.

Outlook may be used in fall applications to control weedsin minimum tillage or no-till corn or soybean productionsystems planted the following spring. Apply up to 21 fluidounces of Outlook per acre to medium- and fine-texturedsoils with greater than 2.5% organic matter. Fall applica-

tions must be made after October 1. Apply Outlook®

herbicide in the fall after crop harvest when soil tempera-tures at the 4" depth are sustained at less than 55º F andbefore the ground freezes. Tillage operations may be con-ducted before or after applying Outlook. If following anapplication, tillage should be no more than 2"-3" deep touniformly incorporate the herbicide into the upper soil sur-face. If a sequential application program (fall application fol-lowed by spring application of Outlook) is used, themaximum combined rate of Outlook that may be applied is21 fluid ounces per acre, per crop season.

Managing Off-target MovementSpray DriftAvoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibil-ity of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment-and weather-related factors determine the potential forspray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsiblefor considering all these factors when making decisions.

The following drift management requirements must be fol-lowed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial appli-cations to agricultural crops:

1. The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boommust not exceed ¾ the length of the wingspan or rotor.

2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the airstream and never be pointed downwards more than 45degrees.

Where states have more stringent regulations, they shall beobserved.

To minimize spray drift, the applicator should be familiarwith and take into account the following drift reductionadvisory information. Additional information may be avail-able from state enforcement agencies or the CooperativeExtension Service on the application of this product.

INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZEThe best drift management strategy and most effective wayto reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets that pro-vide sufficient coverage and control. Applying largerdroplets reduces drift potential but will not prevent drift ifapplications are made improperly or under unfavorableenvironmental conditions (see WIND, TEMPERATUREAND HUMIDITY, and TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS).

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest

practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flowsproduce larger droplets.

• Pressure - DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufacturer'srecommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lowerpressure produces larger droplets. When higher flowrates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead ofincreasing pressure.

• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of noz-zles that provide uniform coverage.

• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the sprayis released parallel to the airstream produces largerdroplets than other orientations and is recommendedpractice. Significant deflection from the horizontal willreduce droplet size and increase drift potential.

• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for theintended application. With most nozzle types, narrowerspray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using

low-drift nozzles. Solid-stream nozzles oriented straightback produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift.DO NOT use nozzles producing a mist droplet spray.

BOOM LENGTHFor some use patterns, reducing the effective boom lengthto less than ¾ of the wingspan or rotor length may furtherreduce drift without reducing swath width.

APPLICATION HEIGHTMaking applications at the lowest possible height (aircraft,ground-driven spray boom) that is safe and practicalreduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind.Applications should not be made at a height greater than10 feet above the top of the largest plants unless a greaterheight is required for aircraft safety.

SWATH ADJUSTMENTWhen applications are made with a crosswind, the swathwill be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up anddownwind edges of the field, the applicator must compen-sate for this displacement by adjusting the path of theapplication equipment (e.g. aircraft, ground) upwind. Swathadjustment distance should increase with increasing driftpotential (higher wind, smaller droplets, etc.).

WINDDrift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 3-10 mph.However, many factors, including droplet size and equip-ment type, determine drift potential at any given speed.Application should be avoided below 3 mph due to variablewind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Everyapplicator should be familiar with local wind patterns andhow they affect spray drift.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITYWhen making applications in low relative humidity, set upequipment to produce larger droplets to compensate forevaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when con-ditions are both hot and dry.

TEMPERATURE INVERSIONSApplications should not occur during temperature inversionbecause drift potential is high. Temperature inversionsrestrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspendeddroplets to remain in a concentrated cloud, which canmove in unpredictable directions due to the light variablewinds common during inversions. Temperature inversionsare characterized by increasing temperatures with altitudeand are common on nights with limited cloud cover andlight to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets andoften continue into the morning. Their presence can beindicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present,inversions can also be identified by the movement ofsmoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke genera-tor. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrat-ed cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion,while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indi-cates good vertical air mixing.

SENSITIVE AREASSpray drift from applying this product may result in damageto sensitive plants adjacent to the treatment area. Onlyapply this product when the potential for drift to these andother adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodiesof water, known habitat for threatened or endangered

7

species, or nontarget crops) is minimal. DO NOT applywhen the following conditions exist that increase the likeli-hood of spray drift from intended targets: high or gustywinds, high temperatures, low humidity, temperature inver-sions.

WIND EROSIONAvoid treating powdery, dry or light sandy soils when condi-tions are favorable for wind erosion. Under these condi-tions, the soil surface should first be settled by rainfall orirrigation.

Aerial Application Methods and EquipmentWater Volume: Use 2 or more gallons of water per acre.The actual minimum spray volume per acre is determinedby the spray equipment used. Use adequate spray volumeto provide accurate and uniform distribution of spray parti-cles over the treated area and to avoid spray drift.

Managing Spray Drift from Aerial Applications:Applicators must follow these requirements to avoid off-tar-get drift movement: 1) boom length - the distance of theoutermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed ¾ thelength of the wingspan or rotor, 2) nozzle orientation - nozzles must always point backward parallel with the airstream and never be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees, and 3) application height - without compromis-ing aircraft safety, applications should made at a height of10 feet or less above the crop canopy or tallest plants.Applicators must follow the most restrictive use cautions toavoid drift hazards, including those found in this labeling aswell as applicable state and local regulations and ordi-nances.

Ground Application (Banding)When applying Outlook® herbicide by banding, determinethe amount of herbicide and water volume needed usingthe following formula:

Ground Application (Broadcast)Water Volume: Use 5 or more gallons of water per acre.The actual minimum spray volume per acre is determinedby the spray equipment used. Use adequate spray volumeto provide accurate and uniform distribution of spray parti-cles over the treated area and to avoid spray drift.

Ground Application (Dry Bulk Fertilizer)Outlook may be impregnated or coated onto dry bulkgranular fertilizer carriers for preplant surface, preplantincorporated, or preemergence applications. Impregnationor coating may be conducted by either the in-plant bulksystem or the on-board system. When impregnated ontosome dry fertilizer blends, Outlook may exhibit a strongodor. Perform the mixing operation in well-ventilated areas.

Outlook may also be applied in herbicide tank mixeswhere the tank mix companion product is also registeredfor these application systems. Individuals or agents sellingOutlook in these application systems are responsible forfollowing all state and local regulations regarding fertilizerand herbicide blending.

Addition of a drying agent may be necessary if the fertilizerand herbicide blend is too wet for uniform application dueto high humidity, high urea concentration, or low fertilizeruse rate. Slowly add the drying agent to the blend until aflowable mixture is obtained. Drying agents are not recom-mended for use with on-board impregnation systems.

Under some conditions, fertilizer impregnated with Outlookmay clog air tubes or deflector plates on pneumatic appli-cation systems. Mineral oil may be added to Outlookbefore blending with fertilizer to reduce plugging. DO NOTuse drying agents when mineral oil is used. To avoid sepa-ration of Outlook and mineral oil mixes in cold tempera-tures, either keep mixture heated or agitated prior toblending with fertilizer. Mineral oil may be used at in-plantblending stations or on-board injection systems.

Apply 200-750 pounds of the fertilizer and herbicide blendper acre. Application must be made uniformly to the soil toprevent possible crop injury and offer satisfactory weedcontrol. Impregnated fertilizer spread at half rate and over-lapped to obtain a full rate will offer a more uniform distribu-tion. For granular fertilizer application, to protect small birdsand mammals, soil incorporation of the granules isrequired. A shallow (1"-2") incorporation is desirable forimproved weed control. Deeper incorporation may result inunsatisfactory weed control.

Formula to determine the herbicide rate when usingdry bulk fertilizer applications:

Incompatible MixturesDO NOT impregnate Outlook or Outlook mixes onammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodium nitrate fer-tilizers or fertilizer blends. Single superphosphate (0-20-0)and triple superphosphate (0-46-0) may be impregnatedonly with Outlook alone.

HerbigationOutlook herbigation applications must be applied onlythrough center pivot, lateral move, solid set, or hand moveirrigation systems. DO NOT apply this product through anyother irrigation system. Applications may be made alone orin tank mixtures with other herbicides on this label that areregistered for use in specified sprinkler irrigation systems.Applications must be made within specific crop stage tim-ings and product use rates given in container directions foruse label.

Make application in volume minimums of 0.33 to 0.67 inch-es of water using the lower volume for coarser texturedsoils and the higher volume for finer textured soils.Applications made in high volumes of water (more than 1 inch) may result in reduced weed control.

Meter herbicide dilution into irrigation water through theentire time of water application for center pivot and lateralmove systems. For solid set and hand move irrigation sys-tems, apply Outlook through system at the beginning ofthe set then follow with additional water to reach volumeminimums as listed by soil type. To increase calibrationaccuracy of injection metering equipment, dilute Outlook in

a minimum of three-parts water to one-part Outlook®

herbicide. Maintain agitation in injection nurse tanks tokeep a uniform herbicide suspension during application.

Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticideresidues in the crop can result from nonuniform distributionof treated water. If you have questions about calibration,you should contact State Extension Service specialists,equipment manufacturers or other experts. If the herbiga-tion system needs adjustment, only the person responsiblefor its operation or under the supervision of the responsibleperson should make the necessary adjustments.

Irrigation System RequirementsThe irrigation system must contain the following:• a functional check valve.• vacuum relief valve.• a low pressure drain (appropriately located on the irriga-

tion pipeline to prevent water source contamination frombackflow).

• functional interlocking controls (to automatically shut offthe pesticide injection pump when the water pump motorstops).

• a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injec-tion pump (e.g. diaphragm pump) effectively designedand constructed of materials that are compatible with asystem interlock.

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain the following:• a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to pre-

vent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.• a functional, normally closed solenoid-operated valve

located on the intake side of the injection pump and con-nected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from beingwithdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation sys-tem is either automatically or manually shut down.

The irrigation line or water pump must include a functionalpressure switch which will stop the water pump motorwhen the water pressure decreases to the point where pes-ticide distribution is adversely affected.

Herbigation PrecautionsDO NOT connect an irrigation system (including green-house systems) used for Outlook application to a publicwater system.

DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond thearea intended for treatment.

DO NOT apply excessive water that results in runoff duringapplication.

Additives

Spray adjuvants have little or no influence on performanceof Outlook when applications are made prior to weedemergence. However, several tank mixes with Outlookrequire adjuvants to improve burndown of emerged weeds.Therefore, surfactants and/or low rate fertilizer (28%, 30%,or 32% UAN or ammonium sulfate), or crop oil concentratemay be used with Outlook tank mixes applied preplant,preemergence, or early postemergence to the crop.

Follow the adjuvant recommendations on the tank mix part-ner's label.

Oil ConcentrateA crop oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum orvegetable oil base and must meet all of the following criteria:• be nonphytotoxic,• contain only EPA-exempt ingredients,• provide good mixing quality in the jar test, and• be successful in local experience.

The exact composition of suitable products will vary; how-ever, vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates should con-tain emulsifiers to provide good mixing quality.

Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more satisfactorythan unrefined vegetable oils. For additional information,see Compatibility Test for Mix Components.

The use of adjuvants containing penetrants, such as petro-leum based oils, after corn emergence may cause cropinjury.

Nitrogen Source• Urea ammonium nitrate (UAN): Use 1-2 gallons of

UAN (commonly referred to as 28%, 30%, or 32% nitro-gen solution) per acre. DO NOT use brass or aluminumnozzles when spraying UAN.

• Ammonium sulfate (AMS): AMS at 8-17 pounds per100 gallons of spray solution may be substituted forUAN. Use high quality AMS (spray grade) to avoid plug-ging of nozzles. Other sources of nitrogen are not aseffective as those mentioned. BASF does not recommendapplying AMS if applied in less than 10 gallons per acrebecause of potential problems with precipitation inreduced volumes. Use AMS only if it has been demon-strated to be successful in local experience.

Nonionic SurfactantThe standard label recommendation is 1-2 quarts of an80% active nonionic spray surfactant per 100 gallons ofwater. For certain weeds, a higher spray surfactant rate isrecommended.

General Tank Mixing Information

Outlook may be tank mixed with one or more herbicideproducts according to the specific tank mixing instructionsin this label and respective product labels, provided that theproduct labels do not prohibit such mixing. Follow the mostrestrictive label use directions and limitations for all prod-ucts used. Refer to Crop-Specific Information to deter-mine which tank mix products can be applied to specificcrops. Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, orcrop injury may result from mixing Outlook with other pes-ticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or miticides),additives, or fertilizers. Local agricultural authorities may bea source of information when using other than BASF-rec-ommended tank mixes.

Compatibility Test for Mix ComponentsBefore mixing components, always perform a compatibilityjar test.

For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups (800 mL) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust ratesaccordingly. Only use water from the intended source at thesource temperature.

9

Add components in the sequence indicated in the MixingOrder using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon foreach pint of recommended label rate per acre.

Always cap the jar and invert 10 cycles between compo-nent additions.

When the components have all been added to the jar, letthe solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solution foruniformity and stability. The spray solution should not havefree oil on the surface, nor fine particles that precipitate tothe bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. If the spray solu-tion is not compatible, repeat the compatibility test with theaddition of a suitable compatibility agent. If the solution isthen compatible, use the compatibility agent as directed onits label. If the solution is still incompatible, DO NOT mixthe ingredients in the same tank.

Mixing Order1) Water. Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer

tank three-quarters full of clean water.2) Agitation. Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing

and application.3) Inductor. If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after

each component has been added.4) Products in PVA bags. Place any product contained in

water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait untilall water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and theproduct is evenly mixed in the spray tank before continu-ing.

5) Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettablepowders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-emul-sions).

6) Water-soluble products.7) Emulsifiable concentrates (such as Outlook®

herbicide or oil concentrate when applicable).8) Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN when

applicable).9) Remaining quantity of water.Maintain constant agitation during application.

Recropping and Rotational Cropping:In situations where Outlook® herbicide has been appliedto potato or horseradish and crop failure occurs due toadverse weather or other reasons, the replanting (recrop-ping) of potato or horseradish is not recommended. Ifreplanting of a crop is necessary, plant any crop (e.g. corn,dry bean, grain sorghum, soybean) where a soil applicationof Outlook is registered.

Endangered Plant SpeciesTo avoid adverse effects on endangered plant species,applicators in potato and horseradish production mustcomply with the following mitigation measures whereendangered plant species occur in the counties listed inAppendix I.



Outlook may be used preplant surface, preplant incorpo-rated, preemergence or postemergence to grain sorghumup to 12 inches tall. Single or split application may beused.

Outlook is not registered for use on sweet or foragesorghum.

All Outlook applications must only be made to sorghumseed that has been properly treated by the seed companywith an approved chloroacetamide herbicide safener orsevere injury may occur.

Under high soil moisture or cool conditions, Outlook appli-cation may cause temporary stunting or leaf wrapping ofsorghum. Sorghum will normally outgrow these symptomsin 10-14 days.

For best performance make preemergence surface applica-tions within 5 days of the last preplant tillage. If weeds haveemerged, apply Outlook with herbicides to control theemerged vegetation.


Sorghum forage may be grazed or fed to livestock 60 daysor more after application of Outlook. Grain and foddermay be harvested and fed 80 days or more after applica-tion of Outlook.

DO NOT use Outlook in sorghum in California.

Sorghum Tank Mixes:Outlook may be tank mixed or applied sequentially insorghum with one or more of the following herbicide prod-ucts according to the specific tank mixing instructions inthis label and respective product labels.

1 Tank mix applications preplant only.

In addition to the tank mix partners listed above, Outlookcan be used in sequential applications with the following:


Outlook may be applied preplant surface, preplant incor-porated, preemergence or early postemergence (from first-to third-trifoliate leaf stage) to soybeans as a single or splitapplication.

If Outlook is applied preplant incorporated, the incorpora-tion must be uniform and shallow (upper 1"-2" of soil).Deeper incorporation may reduce weed control or increasethe potential for crop injury. Preplant incorporated treat-ments are not recommended on coarse soils with less than1.5% organic matter.

If extreme conditions of high rainfall and extended periodsof water-saturated soil occur during soybean germinationor early seedling development, Outlook use may result intemporary growth suppression. Temporary soybean burnand stunting may occur if application of Outlook, sprayadjuvants and tank mixed herbicides are applied toemerged soybeans up through the unifoliate stage. Thesesuppressions have not resulted in reduced soybean yieldpotential.
