Prodigy System Operating Procedure 1) Install a male cty lock connector

to the spray tank. 2) Connect the female dry lock

connector (at the end of the hose attached to the tank) with the male dry lock connector installed on the soray tank.

3) Turn on the nitrogen gas supply. 4) Set measuring meter to zero. 5) Turn on the tank manifold until

the desired arTlOlJ1t of product, as indicated on the measuring meter, has been dischwged ilto the spray tank.

6) Turn off the tank manifold to stop the discharge of product into the sprayer tank.

7} Discomect the female dry lock connector on the tank hose from the male dry lock connector on the spray tank.

8) Turn off the nitrogen gas supply when the Prodigy System ™ is empty, operation is completed or tank is ready to be returned to the point of purchase.

Application Rate and nming Apply Poast and Storm at the rate of 1.5 pints each per acre at early post emergence when weeds are small and actively growing (general­ly when soybeans are in the 2nd to 3rd trifoliate leaf stage of growth). When using the Prodigy System, after Poast and Storm have been added to the spray tank, add the oil concentrate at a rate 0' 1 pint per

dJring application. Under exces­sively dry, wet, or cold concitions, which may reduce herbicidal activi­ty, add oil concentrate at thA rate of 2 pints per acre. Rhizome Johnsongrass Rlizome joIvlsongass is blos' con­trolled when Poast and Storm is followed by Poast PIUS- herbicide when johnsongass is 6-8 inches tall. The tirrlng of Poast and Storm shoUd foIow label drections for control 01 the amuaI grasses and Doadeaf weeds. ThIs tirmg wiI usually not be optim.m for conIrOI­ling rhilome johnsongass, howev­er, the Poast and Storm wiI pro­vide effective control of the john­songrass vegetation and some rhi­zomes. The sequential application of Poast Plus (1.5 pints per acre) wiI control the newly emerging vegetation as well as deplete the rhizome reserves when the following rates are used: Poast and Storm: 3.0 pints per acre based on the amual grass labelled rlirections. Poast Pius: 1.5 pints per acre on 6-8" rhizome johnsongrass Use 2 pints of o~ concentrate per acre in each spray mix Yellow Nutsedge At the optimum appication time of Poast and Storm for most pests, yellow nutsedge may not be at the correct growth stage for optimum control. The best nustedge control

wil be c.~, teved by applying Poast and Storm and a sequential appli­cation of Basagran at 1.5-2.0 pints per acre.

For optinun results with Poast and Storm in a total postemer­gence, one-pass weed control sys­tern for soytleans, the following rec­ommendations shoUd be followed: • plant rows 15" wide or less • eli"ninate aI vegetative weed IJOWIh prior to soybean planting • apply a tank mx of Poast and Storm acoordi 19 to weed sizes stated on this label (about 21 days after soy\:leM planting).

Ground Application Use a mnnun of 10-20 gallons of water per broadcast acre at a mini­mum of 40 psi pressure (measured at the boom, not at the pump or in the ina) to ensure adequate spray coverage. Use standard high pres­sure pesticide hollow cone or ~at fan nozzles spaced 18-20 inches apart. Do not use flood, whirl cham­ber, or controlled droplet appiicator nozzles. Aerial Application Use a minimum of 5 gallons of water per acre and a maximum of 40 psi pressure. To obtain uniform coverage and to avoid drift hazards. the folowing application equipment and practices should be used: Nozzle Type: Use only diaphragm­

type nozzles producing cone or fan spray patterns.

Nozzle Height 6-10 fOOl above crop.

Nozzle Orientation: Nozzles must be oriented so as to discharge straight back with the air stream (opposite the direction of travel of the aircraft) a)(j not more than 2()1> downwind.

Nozzles must be located no farther out than 3/4 the dstance from the center of the aircraft to the end of the wing or rotor. Do not apply Poast WId Storm by aircraft when wind is blowing at a vOOcity above 10 1TlJh. Coarse sprays Oargar droplets) are less like­ly to drift. Do not apply Poast WId Storm by air if omamental or sonsitive nor.tar­get crops such as cotton, sugar beets sunflowers, or okra are within 200 feet downwind. Applicator must foilOYl the most restrictive use cautions to avoid drift hazard and must follow labeling as well as a~icable state and local regulations and ordinal ICes.

Procedure For Cleaning Spray Equipment Clean sprayer thoroughly before and after application of Poast and Storm, particularly if a herbicide with the potential to injure crops was previously used. Consult the label of the previously used herbi­cide for <::Ieaning instructions. If no instructions are ava~able, the steps listed below are suggested for thor­ough cleaning of spray equipment prior to or following a~ication of Poast and Storm. Step 1: Hose down thoroughly the

inside as well as the out­side of equipment while fill­ing the spray tank half fuA of water. Rush by operating sprayer until the system is purged of this rinse water.

Step 2: Refill tank with water while adding 1 gallon household ammonia or 1 pint house­hold dishwashing deter­gent or 1 POUnd of dish­washer detergent pel 100 gallons of water. Or add a commercial sprayer clean­er according to the manu­facturer's directions. Operate the pump to circu­late the detergent solution through the sprayer system for 5-10 mnutes and dis­charge a small amount of solution through the boom and nozzles. Let the solu­lion stand for 24 hours.

, ) Step 3: Flush the detergent 500,,­

tion out of the sprWf tank tIYough the boom.

Step 4: Remove the nozzles and screens and ftush the sys­tem with two tankfuls of water.

Restrtctions and UmItatIons l>Jways read and fololN all label directions when using any pesticide alone or in tank nix corrbinations. The most restrictive label applies when using tank mxes. Only one application of the tank mix of POBSt and Storm per acre per season should be made. Do not apply to weeds ~ stress, such as stress due to lack of moisture, previous herbicide ir1urY, mechanical injury or cold tempera­tlX8S, as unsatisfactory weed con­trol could result. Do not apply if rainfall is expected soon after /lPPication. Overhead irrigation within 8 hours Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop injury may result from mixing Poast and Storm with other pesticides (fungi­cides, herticides, insecticides or miticides) additives or fertilizers not recornmer\ded on the label. BASF does not recommend the use of Poast and Storm in tank nixes other than those listed on BASF labels, supplemental labels, or tech­nical bulletins. local agricultural authorities may be a source of infor­mation when usi~ other BASF rec­ommended combinations. Do not apply Poast and Storm to soybeans that show injury, leaf phy­totoxicity, and/or plant stlKlting caused by any other prior herbicide applications because this injury may be enhanced or prolonged. Do not apply Poast and Storm through any type of irrigation sys­tem. Do not apply to soybeans w~hin 75 days of harvest. Do not use treated plants for feed or forage. Avoid drift to aR other crops and non-target areas. This product cannot be used to for­mu�ate or reformulate any other pesticide product. In case of crop faUure, only soy­beans or peanuts may be immedi­ately replanted.

Crop rotation restriction: ~oo~ crops (such as carrots, turnips, sweet potatoes, etc.) must not be planted in field treated with Poast WId Storm for 18 months following treatment. Do not apply more than 2 pints of Basagran or 1 pint of Blazer fol­lowing an application of Poast and Stonn. Do not apply more than 1.5 pints of Stonn following an application of Poast and Stonn. Do not apply seQUEIOtial appica­lions of Blazer, Basagran, or POBSt Plus within 15 days follow­ing the application of Posst and Stonn. After application of Poast and Stonn, do not apply more than 3.5 pints of Poast per acre, per sea­son. Do not use selective application equipment such as recirculating sprayers. wiper applicators, or shielded applicators when applying Poast and StOr:tl.

Mode of Action: Conclude is effective through poslemergeroee contact and sys­temc activity. Weeds must be thor­oughly covered with spray. Large crop-and-weed-leaf canopies shel­ter smaner weeds and prevent ade­Quate spray coverage. Crop Tolerance: All soybean varieties are toierantto Conclude at all stages of growth. Leaf speckling may occur but plants generally outgrow this condi­tion within 10 days.

Prodigy SystemT ..

Conclude is suppled in the Prodigy System, a unique, 120-gallon mini-bulk closed deivery sys­tern. It consists of a seif-discharging tank that does not require any p..mping mechanism, and has a dry lock connector which protects the user from exposure to tank con­.tents. Do not refill Prodigy System. 'Return Prodigy System to BASF for deaning and refil~ng.

. ' Conclude in a dedcated, return­able Prodigy System can only be used with the closed Prodigy System in which it comes oack­aged. The Prodigy System, when oper­ated according to directions, will discharge Conclude B and G in a 1:1 ratio. See Prodigy System Operating Procedure below.

Prodigy System Operating Procedure 1) Install a male dry lock connector

to the spray tank. 2) Connect the female dry lock

connector (at the end of the hose attached to the tank) with the male dry lock connector installed on the spray tank.

3) Tum on the nitrogen gas supply. 4) Set measuring meter to zero. 5) Tum on the tank manifold until

the desired amount of product, as indcated on the measuring meter, has been discharged into the spray tank.

6) Tum off the tank manifold to stop the cischarge of prodJct into the sprayer tank.

7) Disconnect the female dry lock connector on the tank hose from the male dry lock C'.onnector on the spray tank.

8) Tum off the nitrogen gas supply v.hen the Prodigy SystemT" is errpty, operation is cQrTllleted or tank is ready to be returned to the point of purchase.

, Application Rate and Tuning /l.prJy Conclude at the rate of 3.0 pints per acre at early postemer­gence when weeds are smal and actively growing (generally when soybeans are in the 2nd to 3rd trifo­liate leaf stage of growth). After Conclude has been added to the spray tank, add the oil concentrate at a rate of 1 pint per acre. Maintain constant agitation during applica­tion. Under excessively dry, wet, or cold concitions, which may reduce herbicidal activity, add oii concen­trate at the rate of 2 pints per acre. Rhizome Johnsongrass Rhizome johnsongrass is best con­trolled when Conclude is foIowed by Poast PIUS- herbicide when johnsongrass is 6-8 inches tal. The timing of Conclude shoUd foIow label directions for control of the amual grasses and broacteaf weeds_ This timing wil usual}' not be optirnun for controling rhizome johnsongrass, howater, the Conclude will provide effective control of the johnsongrass vegeta­tion and some rhizomes. The sequentiai application of Poast Plus (1.5 pints per acre) will control the newly emerging vegetation as well as deplete the rhizome reserves when the following rates are used: Conclude: 3.0 pints per acre based on the annual grass labelled directions. Poast Plus: 1.5 pints per acre on 6-8" rhizome johnsongrass Use ;2 pints of oil concentrate per acre in each spray nix Yellow Nutsedge At the optimum application time of Conclude for most pests, yellow nutsedge may not be at the correct growth stage for optim.Jm control. The best nustedge control will be achieved by applying Conclude and a sequential application of Basagran at 1.5-2.0 pints per acre.

For optimum results with Conclude in a total postemergence, one-pass weed control system for soybeans, the following reconmeodations should be followed: • plant rows 15" wide or less • eiininate all vegetative weed growth prior to soybean planting • apply Conclude accorcing to weed sizes stated on ttis label (about 21 days after soybean planti­ng).

, Ground Application Use a minimJm of 10-20 gallons of water per broadcast acre at a mini­mum of 40 psi pressure (measured at the boom, not at the PtXT1P or in the line) to ensure adequate spray coverage. Use standard high pres­sure pesticide hoIow cone or flat fan nozzles spaced 18-20 inches apart. Do not use flood, whil1 chan­bar, or controiled droplet applicator nozzles. Aerial Application Use a rninlm.Jm of 5 gallons of water per acre and a rnaxirTUTI of 40 psi pressure. To obtain uniform coverage and to avoid drift hazards, the following application equipment and practices should be used: Nozzle Type: Use only ciaphragm­

type nozzles prociJcing cone or fan spray pattems.

Nozzle Height 6-10 feet above crop .

Nozzle Orientation: Nozzles must be oriented so as to discharge straight back with the air stream (opposite the direction of travel of the aircraft) and not more than 20" downwind.

Nozzles must be located no farther out than 3/4 the distance from the center of the aircraft to the end of the wing or rotor. Do not ilppIy Conclude by aircraft when wind is blowing at a velocity above 10 mph. Coarse sprays (larg­er droplets) are less likely to drift. Do not apply Conclude by air if ornamentai or sensitive nontarget crops such as cotton, sU93': beets sunflowers, or okra are Within 200 feet downwind. Applicator must follow the most restrictive use cautions to avoid drift hazard and must follow labeling as well as applicable state and local regulations and orefnances.

Mode of Action: A tank mix of Poast and Storm is effective through post emergence contact and systemic activity. Weeds must be thoroughly covered with spray. Large crop-and-weed­leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds and prevent adequate spray cover­age. Crop Tolerance: All soybean varieties are tolerant to Poast and Storm at all stages of growth. Leaf speckling may occur but plants generally outgrow this condition within 10 days. Cultivation: Do not cultivate before or during application or within five days after application of Poast and Storm. Cultivation may put weeds under stress and reduce control obtained. A timely cultivation 5-7 days after applying Poast and Storm may assist weed control in soybeans grown in rows more than 10 inches apan.

) ) Mode of Action: Conclude is effective through postemergence contact and sys­temic activity. WeOOs must be thor­ough�y covered with spray. Large crop-and-weed-leaf canopies shel­ter smaller weeds and prevent ade­quate spray wverage. Crop Tolerance: All soybean varieties are tolerant to Conclude at an stages of growth. Leaf speckling may OCCIX but plants generally outgrow this condi­tion within 10 days. Cultivation: Do not cultivate before or during application or within fIVe days after application of Conclude. Cultivation may put weeds under stress and reduce control obtained. 'A timely cultivation 5-7 days after ,applying Conclude may assist . weed control in soybeans grown in

" rows more than 10 inches apart.

Application Rate and Timing Apply Conclude B and Conclude G at the rate of 1.5 pints each per acre at early posternergence when weeds .,..e sma" and actively grow­ing (generally when soybeans are in the 2nd to 3rd trifoliate leaf stage of growth). Add oil concentrate at a rate of 1 pint per acre. Under excessively dry, wet, or cold condi­tions, which may reduce herbicidal activity, add oil concentrate at the rate of 2 pints per acre. Rhizome Johnsongrass Rhizome johrlSongrass is best con­.rolled when Conclude is followed ty PoaS! Plus· herbicide when Johnsongrass is 6-8 inches tall. The timing of Conclude should follow label directions for control of the annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. This timing will usually not be optiffilXO for controlting rhizome johnsongrass, however, lhe Conclude win provide effective control of the johnsongrass vegeta­tion and some rhizomes. The sequential application of Poast Plus (1.5 pints per acre) will control the newly emerging vegetation as well as deplete the rhizome reserves when the following rates .,..e used: Conclude: 3.0 pints per acre based on the annual grass labelled directions (1.5 pints of ConClude B + 1.5 pints of Conclude G). PoaS! Plus: 1.5 pints per acre on 6-8" rhizome johnsongrass Use 2 pints of oil concmtrate per acre in each spray mix

) ) ) Yellow Nutsedge At the optimum application time of Conclude for most pests, yellow nutsedge may not be at the correct growth stage for optimum control. The best OllStedge control will be achieved by applying Conclude and a sequential application of Basagran at 1.5-2.0 pints per acre.

Duplex n. " System Conclude is provided in a molded jug pack that contains enough Conclude B and Conclude G to treat 5 acres.

MIxing F. tank of a thoroughly dean sprayer half to two-thirds full with dean water. Start agitation and add the recommended amounts of product in the following order: Conclude B, oil concentrate, and Conclude G. Then add the remain­ing quantity of water. Do not atterJl)t to pour the contents of the Duplex II container system (Conclude B and G) onto the tank simultaneously or poor mixing will result. Maintain constant agitation during application.

For optirnlXn results with Conclude in a total postemergence, one-pass weed control system for soybeans, I~O following recomnendations should be followed: • plant rows 15" wide or less • elimnate all vegetative weed growth prior to soybean ~anting • apply Condude according to weed sizes stated on this label (about 21 days after soybean planti­ng).

Ground Application Use a minimum of 10-20 gallons of water per broadcast acre at a mni­mum of 40 psi pressure (measlXed at the boom, n')t at the PUITl> or in the line) to ensue adequate spray coverage. Use standard high pres­sure pesticide hollow cone or nat fan nozzles spaced 18-20 inches apart. Do not use flood, whirl cham­ber, or controled droplet applicator nozzles .

) f'llJlLD Aerial Application ' Use a mil1lmum of 5 gallons of water per acre and a maximum of 40 psi pressure. To obtain lXliform coverage and to avoid drift hazards, the following application equipment and practices should be used: Nozzle Type: Use orlly daphragm­

type nozzles producing cone or fan spray patterns.

Nozzle Height: 6-10 feet above crop.

Nozzle Orientation: Nozzles must be oriented so as to discharge straight back with the ai' stream (opposite the direction of travel of the aircraft) and not more than 20" downWind.

Nozzles rTlllSt be located no farther out than 3/4 the distance from the center of the aircraft to the end of the wing or rotor . Do not apPy Conclude by aircraft when wind is blowing at a velocity above 10 mph. CoarSe sprays (larg­er droplets) are less likely to drift. Do not apply Conclude by air if ornamental or sensitive nontarget crops such as cotton, ~ beets sunflowers, or okra are within 200 feet downwind. Applicator must follow the most restrictive use cautions to avoid drift haza-d and must follow labeliny as well as applicable state ar od local regulations and ordinances.
