SPRAY EQUIPMENT

VELPAR® DF may be applied by ground equipment or by air.

Select a spray volume that will ensure a thorough and uniform application. Apply a minimum of 5 gallons per acre by air and a minimum of 10 gallons per acre by ground equipment.

USE PRECAUTIONS

CHRISTMAS TREES

Do not use VELPAR® DF in nurseries, seed beds, or ornamental plantings.

Do not add a surfactant in applications over the top of conifers.

Weed control results from spring applications depend on sufficient moisture to activate VELPAR® DF.

Do not cut treated vegetation for forage or hay nor graze domestic animals on treated areas for 60 days following application.

Poor weed and brush control may result from the following: –Heavy duff or slash present at the time of application. –Use on poorly drained sites.

–Applications made when soil is saturated with water and rain is imminent within 24 hours.

–Applications to soils high in organic matter (greater than 5%).

Injury may occur when VELPAR® DF is used on the following:

–Trees that show poor vigor, insect damage, disease, winter injury, or other stress conditions.

–Any soil containing less than 1% organic matter.

–Loamy sand or sandy loam with less than 2% organic matter (except Jeffrey Pine and Ponderosa Pine).

–Foliage after bud break.

–Gravelly or rocky soils, exposed subsoils, clay knobs, sand, or sandy soil with 85% or more sand.

PINEAPPLE

VELPAR® DF is recommended for control of certain weeds in pineapple.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Mix the proper amount of VELPAR® DF in water. Add a surfactant at the rate of 0.25% V/V.

Use the lower rates on coarse-textured soils or in areas where rainfall exceeds 65 inches per year. Use the higher rates on fine-textured soils or in areas where rainfall is less than 65 inches per year.

Intercrop period - Apply VELPAR® DF as a broadcast spray in 100–400 gallons of water per acre at the rate of 1/3 - 2 1/3 pounds per acre. For aerial application, use at least 10 gal water per acre.

Post mulch, preplant - Apply VELPAR® DF as a broadcast spray in 100–400 gallons of water per acre at the rate of 1/3 - 2 1/3 pounds per acre.

Post plant, before planted cuttings start active growth - Apply VELPAR® DF as a broadcast spray in 100–400 gallons of water per acre at the rate of 1/3 - 2 1/3 pounds per acre. A post-plant application should be made after planted cuttings start to grow only when weed growth has escaped control by other herbicide applications.

Prior to forcing first ratoon - Apply VELPAR® DF as a broadcast spray in 100–400 gallons of water per acre at the rate of 1/3 - 2 1/3 pounds per acre.

Directed postemergence (pineapple and weeds) inter- space application - Apply VELPAR® DF as a directed

spray 3–10 months after planting in 50–200 gallons of water per acre (broadcast basis) at the rate of 1/3 - 2 1/3 pounds per acre (broadcast basis) using a stroller boom or knapsack.

Directed spot treatments for perennial grasses before floral induction - Spray perennial grasses postemergence to

wet (50–200 gallons per acre depending on size) with 1 1/3 - 2 1/3 pounds per 100 gallons of water as a spot treatment.

Treatments to field edges and roadsides - Apply

VELPAR® DF at 2 1/3 - 4 8/10 pounds per acre in 100–400 gallons of water.
