Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled: Dike and contain spill with inert material (sand. earth, etc.) and transfer liquid and solid diking material to separate containers for. disposal. Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin areas with water. Wash clothing before re-use. Keep spill out of all sewers and open bodies of water.

General Information Blaze" herbicide is intended for selective postemergence control of certain broadleaf weeds and grasses (See Directions for Use for specific crops and weeds). Blazer is effective through contact action; therefore. weeds must be thoroughly covered with spray. Large crop­and-weed leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds and prevent adequate spray coverage. Labeled crops are tolerant to Blaze'; however, leaf-speckling and leaf-bronzing may occur under certain conditions. particularly on the youngest leaves present at time of application. Exposed stems may also exhibit external spotting and bronzing. New growth is normal and crop vigor IS not reduced. (See Restrictions and Limitations for each crop.)

Time of Application Make post"mergence application of Blazer and Blazer tilflk mixes early, when weeds are small and actively growing ilnd before weeds reach the maXIn1Um size listed In the application rate tables for the

4

individual crops.

',<0 Dj A , (VU)

Early application to weeds results in improved weed control. allows use of the lower rate (depending on weed species). and makes it e&sier to obtain thorough spray coverage. Delay in application which permits weeds to exceed the maximum size stated will result in inadequate control.

Do not cultivate within 5 days before or 3 to 7 days after application of Blazer.

Water Volume and Spray Pressure Apply recommended rates of Blazer as follows:

Ground equipment: Use a minimum of 20 gallons of water per broadcast acre and a minimum of 40 psi pressure (measured at the boom - not at the pump or in the line). When crop and weed foliage is dense. use up to 50 gallons of water and up to 80 psi pressure. Use standard high pressure pesticide hollow COne or flat fan nozzles spaced 20 inches apart. Do not use flood. whirl chamber or controlled droplet application (CDA) nozzles.

Adjust the height of the boom above the cro,.! to give complete coverage of all weeds. The high gallon3ge and high pre-;i;,Jfd will profilOte necessary coverage of v:o,:)js.

uniform spray mixture.

Note: Cultivation before or during application is not recommended. Cultivation may put weeds under stress. thus making contr,,1 more difficult. Timely cultivation 3 to 7 days after application will usually assist in weed control. When row banding equipment is employed. it should be adjusted to provide maximum coverage of weeds in the row.

Thorough coverage of the weeds can be obtained with two nozzles directed from either side of the crop row toward the weeds in the center rows. Recommended minimum band width is 15 inches with a minimum of 15 gallons of water per acre on the band.

Application with a single nozzle over the row IS not recommended.

Air equipment: In general. use a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre and a maximum of 40 psi pressure. However. Blazer applied in 5 gallons per acre has been effective for control of adequate achieved.

Use only diaphragm-type nozzles prodUCing cone or fan spray patterns.

Nozzle place and orientation: Nozzles should POIOt to the rear of the aircraft and not be pOinted downward more than 20 degrees. Nozzles must not be located farther out then three-fourths the distance from

~.

)

the center of the aircraft to the end of the wing or rotor. A height of 6 to 10 feet over the crop is recommended.

Drift hazard: Exercise care to prevent spray drift to other crops. Aerial spraying when other crops are closer than 100 yards downwind or 50 yards upwind is not recommended. A drift control agent may reduce drift; however. may also decrease weed control. Do not apply Blazer by aircraft when wind velocity exceeds 10 mph.

Important: Aerial applicators must be familiar with the EPA­registered label and follow the use precautions. Spraying of Blazer in a manner other than as recommended is done at the user's risk. Users are responsible for all loss or damage which results from such spraying. In addition. aerial applicators should follow all applicable state and local regulations .snd ordinances. In interpreting the label and local regulations. the most restrictive situations should apply to avoid drift hazards.

Spray Additives .:'n additive is required with Blazer to achieve consistent weed control. The standard label recommendation is 1 pint of an 80% active nonlonic spray surfactant. per 100 gallons of water. For certain weeds. a higher spray surfactant rate is recommended.

Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN). commonly referred to as 28%. 30% or 32% nitrogen solution. may be added in place of other

5

spray adjuvants for improved weed control in soybeans. The standard use rate of ~ to 1 gallon per acre is recommended.

Non-phytotoxic oil concentrate should be added to the spray tank for certain tank mix combinations as recommended in the directions for specific crops. The oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum or vegetable oil base and must meet the following criteria: 1) be non-phytotoxic. 2) contain only EPA-exempt

ingredients. 3) provide good mixing Quality

in the jar test (see the fOllowing section). and

4) be successful in local experience.

The exact composition of suitable products will vary; however. vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates should contain emulsifiers which provide good mixing Quality. For vegetable oil concentrates. it has been observed that highly refined vegetable oils are more satisfactory than unrefined oils. For additional information. refer to the Jar test for estimating suitability of oil concentrates.

With the addition of oil concentrate. the potential for leaf burn is increased. especially when relative humidity and temperatures are high.

Clabb6ring thickening texture (coagulated) resembling yogurt or a curd­like texture as with cottage cheese.

Mixing Fill spray tank one-half to two­thirds full with clean water and add the recommended amount of Blazer followed by a spray adjuvant while the agitator is running. After thorough mixing, add the remaining quantity of water. For the mixing sequence of tank mix combinations, see labeling of respective compounds.

Restrictions and Limitations Do not apply Blazer or Blazer tank mixes to crops listed on this lauel that have been subject to stress conditions such as drought,lIooding. frost or hail damage; high temperature stress or wilt; Injury from herbicides or excessive fertilizer or soil salts; wind injury, widely fluctuating temperatures; stress symptoms Irom disease, nematodes or insects; cold temperatures when maximum day temperature is below 70

6

degrees F, or soil temperature is below 60 degrees F; as weeds will not be actively growing and control may be reduced.

Crop rotation restriction: Root crops (such as carrots, turnips, sweet potatoes, etc.) must not be planted in fields treated with Blazer herbicide for a period of 18 months following treatment.

In case of crop failure, only peanuts, soybeans or rice may be immediately replanted.

Do not use treated plants for feed forage.

Avoid drift to all other crops and non-target areas.

Rainfall soon after application may decrease the effectiveness of Blazer. Do not apply ifrain is thrflatening.

Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

Do not apply overhead irrigation within 6 hours of application.

Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop injury may result from mixing Blazer with other pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insectici~es or miticides). additives, or fertilizers. BASF does not recommend the use of Blazer tank mixes other than those listee; '),1, BASF labels, supplementallaoels, or technical bulletins.

Attention! Clean sprayer thoroughly before and after application of herbicides.

Failure to clean sprayer thoroughly after a herbicide application may result in injury to other crops if sprayed with the same equipment. Consult the label of the previously used herbicide for cleaning instructions. If no instructions are available. the steps listed balow are suggested for cleaning of spray equipment prior to or following applications of Blazar.

Fill the sprayer with clean water and add a commercial spray tank cleaner or a surfactant/adjuvant at tha recommended rate on its label. Circulate through entire sprayer system. Spray approximately half the tank solution through the hoses. boom. and nozzles to clean these parts. Drain the ~ank and rinse the total system thoroughly several times with clenn water.

Soybeans

Directions for Use Apply Blazer when weeds are small and actively growing and before they reach the maximum size listed in Table '. Application Rate Table for Soybeans. In solid-seeded narrow-row soybean plantings. Blazer herbicide should be

In order for Bluer to be effective, initial application should be made to weeds no later than the 2·leaf growth stage Use 1.5 pints of Blazer per acre plus 2 pints of spray adjuvant per 100 galions of spray mix.

lambsquarters, Common Blazer, at the 1.5 pint rate per acrl!, will usually cause spotting, stunting or death of many seedlings not exceeding 2 true leaves. Add 2 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix. Cultivation 3 to 7 clava after application will usually auist in control.

Momingglories More consistent control of Morningglories c~n be achieved by using sequential applications of 1 pint of Blazer. Allow a minimum of 15 days between sequential applications and do not apply more than 2 pints per season. Use 2 pints of spray surfactant per 100 galions of spray mix or 2 pints of 011 concentrate per trea~ .. d acre.

Poinsettia, Wild Blazer, 1.5 pints per acre plus 2 pints of a spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix, will usually kill or severely stunt wild poinsettia. Apply prior to \~e formation of the third true leaf. In addition, the seedling mull be actively growing. This treatment will usually I,sult in a height differential between soybeans and survivino wild painsenia. thus allowing post·directed applicaions and additional control.

Special Use Directions for Additional Weed Problems in Soybeans (cont'd.)

Sesbania. Hemp Crowaria, Showy Sesbania and Crotalaria Ire very sensitive to Blazer. Apply Blazer at 1 pint per acre plus 2 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix. Effective control cen be obtained at just about all plant heights. It is important, however, that Blazer be applied prior to bloom. Applications aher bloom are usually not effective and therefore not recommended. During or ahar periods of dry _ather, control may be erratic. Applicetion for control of these weeds Ihould be timed to occur ahet maximum weed emergence hll taken place. Care mUlt be exercised to make certain that crops do not shade this ~ fr(lm sptly deposits. Waiting for the .esbania to break through the crop canopy may be advisable for contr,ol of late slIson infestations.

Starbur, Bristly Senna, Coffee Apply Blazer, at the 1.5 pints per acre plus 2 pints of a sptly surfactant per 100 gallons of sptly mix to kill or suppress seedlings that are not past the 2·leaf stage. Applications ahot the 2-1elf stage are usually ineffective.

Perennial Weeds: Bind_d, Field Bindweed, Hedge Mlkweed, Qimbinll Mlkweed, Common Redvine Trumpetcreepar

Growth of perennial weeds from underground rootstocks is very difficult to control. Blazer at 1.5 pints per acre, plus 2 to 4 pints of sprlY surfactant per 100 gallons of spray solution Ipplied under favorable environmental conditions, will bum back the above·ground plant parts and retard regrowth. Blezer will not kill the underground rootstocks of these weeds.

Annual Grasses: Foxtaa, Glint FoxtlD, Green FOlltaU. Yellow Johnsongrl ••• Seedling Panicum. Fill Shlnereane

Blaler must not be the basic component of a grass manallement program. For additional control of escaped grasses following a pre'plant incorporated ur preemergence herbicide, apply Blazer at 1.5 pints per acre plus 2 to 4 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix. Grasses not exc~ qding the 2·leaf stage will be stunted or killed, Activity is dependent upon good soil moisture during and following spray application.

Volunteer Small Grains: Bartey Oats Rye Wheat

Blazer applied to emerging volunteer small grains in the ,. to 2·leaf stage will kill or stun! ,,!,any plants. Blazer should be applied at 1.5 Pints per acre plus 2 to 4 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix. Activity is dependent upon good soil moisture during and following the spray applications.

Blazer + Rescue Tank Mix in Soybeans (Mid-to-Iate season postemergenceweed control)

General and Application Information. Restrictions and Limitations General Information Blazer may be tank mixed with Rescue lor mid-to-late season postemergence weed control in soybeans. Rescue is a systemic herbicide and therelore requires 20 to 30 days to obtain maximum eflect. The reduction of weed competition to the soybeans begins immediately after the tank mix of Blazer plus Res~ue is applied even though the weeds are not killed immediately.

Weed size will determine the most effective rate for the tank mix of Blazer plus Rescue. Control with this tank mix will decrease with

31

increasing wr.ad si,e and density of the soyb .. :> canopy. Thorough coverage of the weed is essflntial for maximum control.

Most soybeans are tolerant to Rescue when used according to libel instructions. Some upper soybean plant drooping, leaf wrinkling or

. twisting may occur under certain conditions; however. soybeans will usually outgrow this condition and continue to develop normally. Soybean height reduction may occur due to the shortening of the soybean stem internodes and has been shown to have no direct relationship to yield. Mitchell, Corsoy and Forrest varieties are more sensitive to Rescue than other varieties.

TIme of Application When applied according to libel instructions, the tank mix of Blue, plus Rescue will control or suppress certain broadleaf weeds. See Table 13 for detailed time of application information. Rescue may be appHed to determinate or indeterminate soybeans which are at least 14' taU or if blooming has begun. In the upper Midwest and high pllins (Minnesota, North DaltQta, South Dakotal, Rescue applications shouid be delayed until the group 0, lor" soybeans haVtl begun to bloom.

Rate For application rates of Blazer + Rescue refer to Tabl. 13 for details.

Spray Additive An 80% active nonionic surfactant. or crop oil concentrate should be used at the rate recommended on the Rescue label. Soybean crop response will increase with the addition of a crop oil concentrate with the tank mix.

Special Use Directions for Additional Weed Problems in Peanuts

Beggarweed, florida Control of Florida Beggarweed Is ':fficult dua to tha weed's long garmination season. Apply 1.5 pints of BlNar per acre plus 2 pints of spray surfactant p., 100 gallons of .spray mix when Beggarweed seedlings have no more than 2 young expandlnQ true leaves. Weeds at this time will not be more than 1 % in~has high. It is important to obtain maximum controi of the earliest weed flu.h. Time cultivation to give maximum control of regrowth or secondary weed flushes. Bluer will suppress or partially control weeds growing under conditions of high soil moisture and high relatlva humidity.

Bu~wh .. t, WUd Buffalobur Partial control of wild buckwheat and buffalobur can usually be. obtained whan the seedlings have Ie,s than 2 true leaves. Use Blazar at 1.5 pints in 30 gallons of wat., per acre. Use 2 pints of a spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix.

Cocklebur Blazer, at the 1.5 pint rate per acre, will usually cause stunting or death of seedlings not exceeding 2 true leaves which are actively growing under conditions of high soil moisture and high relative humidity. Use 1 pint of spray surfactanT per 100 gallons of spray mix.

Cucurblts: Burgher"," Citron IWUd Watermelon, Smellmelon

Members of the cucumber family germinate over an e,.,ended period of time. Control is therefore difficult to obtain with a single spray. In order for Blazar to be effective, initial application should be made to weeds no later than the 2·leaf growth stage. Use 1.5 pints' of Blazer per acre plus 2 pints of spray adjuvant per 100 gallons of spray mix.

Lamb,quarters, Common Blazer, at the 1.5 pint rate per acre, will usually cause spotting, stunting or death of many seedlings not exceeding 2 true leaves. Add 2 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons Jf spray mix. Cultivation 3 to 7 days after application will usually assist in control.

Momingglorie5 More conSistent control of Morningglories can be achieved by using sequential applications of 1 pint of Blazer. Allow a minimum of 15 days between sequential applications and do not apply more than 2 pints per season. Use of 2 Pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix or 2 pints of oil concentrate per treated acre.

Poinsettia, Wild Blazer, 1.5 pints per acr~ plus 2 pints of a spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix, will usually kill or ever ely stunt wild poinsettia. Apply prior to the formation of the third true leaf. In addition, the seedling must

be actively growing. This treatment will usually result in 8 height differential between soybeans and surviving Wild POinsettia. thus allowing post-directed applications and additional control.

Special Use Directions for Additional Weed Problems in Peanuts Cont'd.

Sesbanla, Hemp Crot.u.r1a, Showy Sesbania and Crotalaria are very sensitive to Blazer. Apply .u.zer at 1 pint per acre plus 2 pints of spray sur'actant per 100 oallons of spray mix. Effective control can be obta'ined at just about all plant haights. It is important, however, that Blazer be lIpplied prior to bloom. Applic:ati':ms after bloom are usually not effective and therefore not recommended. During or efter periods of dry weather, control may be erratic. App,lication for control of these weeds should be timed to occur after maximum weed emergence has taken place. Care must be exercised to make certain that crops do not shade this weed from spray deposits. Waiting for the sesbania to break through the crop canopy may b" advisable for control of late season infestations.

Starbur, Bristly Senna, Coffaa Apply Blazer, at the 1.5 pints per acre plus 2 pints of a spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix, will kill or suppress seedlings that are not past the 2-1eaf stage. AppliClltions after the 2-1eaf stage are usually ineffective.

Perennial Weed.: BIndweed, FIeld BIndweed. Hedge Milkweed. ClImbing MDkweed, Common Redvlna T rumpetcreepar

Growth of perennial weeds from underground rootstocks is very difficult to control. Blazer at 1.5 pints per acre, plus 2 to 4 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray solution applied under favorable environmental conditions, will burn back the above-ground plant parts and retard regrowth. Blazer will not kill the underground rootstocks of tnese weeds.

Annual Grasses: Foxtail. giant Foxtail. gr .... Foxtail. yellow John.ongMla., Saadllng Panlcum, fait Shanereane

Blazer must not be the basic component of a orass management program. For additional control of escaped gras.es followmg a pre· plant incorporated or preemeroence herbicide, ap;lly Blazer at 1.5 pints per acre plus 2 to 4 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix. Grasses not exceeding the 2·leaf stage will be stunted or killed. Activity is dependent upon good soil moisture during and following application.

Volunteer Small Grains Barley Oats Rye Wheat

Blaz.r applied to emerging volunteer small grains in the 1· to 2·leaf stage, will kill or stunt many plants. Blazer should be applied at 1.5 pints per acre plus 2 to 4 pints of spray surfactant per 100 gallons of spray mix. Activity is dependent upon good soil mOisture during and follOWing the splay applications.

Blazer can be applied alone or in combInation WIth various herbicides. For tank mix combination, refer to Tables 15 and 16

Rice

Directions for use Blazer is a selective broad spectrum herbicide recommended for post emergence application in rice to control Hemp Sesbani<! prior to flowering. Optimum weed control is achieved when actively growing weeds are treated. Good coverage is important, as Blazer works primarily by contact action. Failure to follow the suggested dosage will result in unsatisfactory control. When applied at the recommended growth stages and suggested dosage rates, rice is tolerant to postemergence applications of Blazer. Do not apply Blazer after the rice reaches the boot stage.

Time of Application Blazer should be applied to actively growing Hemp Sesbania plants, but before Sesbania is in the flowering stage. Best results are obtained when the Sesbanta growth extends above the nce. Blazer may be applied when rice .s at the late tillenng stage up to the early boot stage, which normally occurs in June/July.

Rate Apply 'h pint of Blazer to actively growing Hemp Sesbania plants. A second application of 'h pin;, Blazer can b, made to control later germinating Sesbania.

Spray Additive Two 12) pints of an 80% nOnlonlC spray adjuvant should be addec per 100 gallons of the spray mllcture. The use of a -pray adjuvant IS

Important tor ehective control 01 Hemp Sesbania.

Water Volume and Spray Pressure For additIonal Infofrlatlon, refer to

the £ectlOn titled Directions for use, pages 3 . 6

(

G,ound Equipment: For best results use a minimum of 20 gallons of water per acre and 40 psi. Use standard flat fan or hollow cone nozzles spaced 20 incheS apart.

AM equipment: Apply Blazer by aircraft using nozzling to deliver from 5 to 10 gallons of spray per acre.

Mixing When mixing Blazer and spray adjuvant, follow the standard mixing procedure, outlined on page 5.

Coverage Thorough coverage of actively growing weeds is essential. Large crop-end-weed leaf canopies shelter smaller weeds and can prevent adequate spray coverage.

Drift Hazard When spraying labeled crops, care must be exercised to prevent spray drift which could rt:Sult in damage to other crops. Spraying when other crops are closer than 100 yards downwinc' or 50 yards upwind from the point of application is not recommended. The use of any cleared drift control agent may redUC0 this hazard; however, the drift control agent may also decrease the weed cont,ol activity.

Restri;::tions and Limitations (partial list, 00 not apply Blazer to rice after it reaches the boot stage, or within 50 lIays of harvest.

00 not apply more than :wo applications to (,ice per season nor exceed 1 plm per acre per season.

Do not use treated pia'1ts for feed or forage.

Crop Rotation Restriction: Root crops (such as carrots. turnips,

sweet potatoes, etc.) must not be planted In fields treated with Blazer for a period of 18 months following

·Heatment.
