2,4-D amine (several trade names)

Rate 0.7 to 2 lb ae/A

Time Depends on weeds to be controlled. Apply to grass when annual and biennial broadleaf weeds are small and actively growing, and established perennials are at bud stage, unless label indicates otherwise.

Remarks Controls many broadleaf weeds. Application rate depends on weed species and size. The smaller the annual weeds, the easier they are to control. Spray biennial species in the seedling to rosette stage and before flower stalks become apparent. Spray perennial weeds while they are still seedlings (coming from seed) or wait until bud stage of growth.

Caution Do not allow spray to drift to desirable vegetation. Do not apply to newly seeded areas until grass is well established. Many forbs (desirable broadleaf plants) can be seriously injured or killed. Do not cut for hay within 30 days of application. Do not graze lactating dairy cattle in treated areas for 7 days after application. Do not permit animals being finished for slaughter to graze treated fields within 3 days of slaughter.

Chemical family Phenoxy acetic acid

aminopyralid (Milestone)

Rate 0.75 to 1.75 oz ae/A (3 to 7 fl oz/A Milestone)

Time Apply to actively growing weeds. Consult label for specifics.

Remarks A nonionic surfactant at 1 to 2 quarts/100 gal spray will enhance control under adverse environmental conditions. Controls several broadleaf weeds. Application rate depends on weed species and stage of growth. Apply at least 2 weeks before harvest to ensure weed control. There are no restrictions on grazing or hay harvest.

Caution Do not allow drift to desirable vegetation. Many forbs (desirable broadleaf plants) can be seriously injured or killed. Allow at least 3 days of grazing on an untreated pasture before transferring grazing animals from treated areas where sensitive broadleaf crops grow. Do not exceed 7 fl oz/A Milestone per year. Do not spread manure from animals that have grazed or consumed treated forage within the previous 3 days on land used for growing broadleaf crops. If Milestone is applied by someone besides the landowner, a copy of Dow AgroSciences Stewardship instructions must be provided (www.aminopyralidstewardshipinstructions.com). Not for use in hay for export.

Chemical family Pyridine

aminopyralid + florpyrauxifen-benzyl (DuraCor)

Rate 1 oz ae/A aminopyralid + 0.01 oz ae/A florpyrauxifen-benzyl to 1.66 oz ae/A aminopyralid + 0.17 oz ae/A florpyrauxifen-benzyl (12 to 20 oz/A DuraCor). Recommended rate varies by target species and growth stage, see label for details.

Time Apply to small actively growing weeds for best results. Use higher rates for larger weeds or stressful conditions, and for improved soil residual persistence. Apply only to well-established perennial grasses, some species may be tolerant to earlier applications, see label for full details.

Remarks Florpyrauxifen-benzyl improves control of several species not well controlled by aminopyralid alone (Milestone), and increases soil residual. Can be used to treat terrestrial weeds up to the waters edge and in some seasonally dry wetland sites, see label for full restrictions.

Caution Do not apply more than 20 oz/A DuraCor per year. Spot treatments may be made at up to twice this rate, provided no more than 50% of an acre is treated at this higher rate. Do not make more than 2 applications per year, or re-treat within 30 days. Do not transfer animals fed on treated grasses to areas in which sensitive broadleaf crops may occur without a 3-day waiting period on untreated pasture. Both active ingredients can accumulate and persist in manure and damage sensitive plants for years after application, see label for full restrictions on use and movement of manure when animals are fed treated forages. Do not use grasses treated with aminopyralid + florpyrauxifen in the preceding 18 months for hay intended for export outside the US. Unless specifically allowed by supplemental labelling, the following uses of hay treated within the preceding 18 months are prohibited: distribute or sell off the farm or ranch where harvested, use in silage, haylage, bailage and/or green chop, use hay or manure from animals fed treated hay in compost, use treated grasses for seed production. Do not use where damage to legumes or other desirable broadleaves cannot be tolerated. Do not rotate to any crop for at least 1 year after application, restrictions vary slightly between products, see label for specifics.

Chemical family (both) pyridine

aminopyralid + metsulfuron (Chaparral)

Rate 2 to 3.3 oz/A

Time Apply to actively growing weeds under conditions favorable for plant growth.

Remarks Rate depends on target broadleaf weed species. Use a higher rate when growing conditions are less than favorable, weeds are mature or weed foliage is tall and dense, or when residual control is important. Adding a high-quality nonionic surfactant, at 0.25 to 0.5 v/v, enhances control.

Caution Off farm use of hay is allowed by supplemental label. Do not let spray drift onto desirable vegetation. Many forbs (desirable broadleaf plants) can be seriously injured or killed. Do not harvest for hay within 7 days. Allowing at least 14 days after application before harvest provides maximum herbicidal activity. Do not transfer grazing animals from treated areas to areas where sensitive broadleaf crops grow without first allowing 3 days of grazing on untreated pastures. Do not spread manure from animals that have grazed or consumed treated forage within the previous 3 days on land used for growing broadleaf crops. If Milestone is applied by someone besides the landowner, a copy of Dow AgroSciences Stewardship instructions must be provided (www.aminopyralidstewardshipinstructions.com). Not for use in hay for export.

indaziflam (Rejuvra)

Rate Grazed areas 0.046 to 0.065 lb ai/A (3.5 to 5 oz/A Rejuvra); areas not grazed or cut for hay 0.046 to 0.09 lb ai/A (3.5 to 7 oz/A Rejuvra). Use lower rates only where weed pressure is light and shorter period of residual activity is desired.

Time Apply at least several weeks prior to expected germination of targeted weeds. Apply to dry soils when rain is not expected for at least 48 hours. Can be successfully applied several months in advance of weed germination.

Remarks Indaziflam provides multiple years of pre-emergent control of germinating seeds of most species from a single application. Provides excellent control of winter annual grass weeds (e.g., cheatgrass, medusahead, feral rye, etc.). Indaziflam is safe over the top of most well-established perennial grasses, but see label for full details. Use only in areas in which desirable perennial grass stands are of adequate density to meet management goals for several years after application without any further plant recruitment. Do not expect to conduct successful seedings of desirable plants for several years after application. Pre-emergent activity only, use appropriate tank-mix partners if weeds have emerged prior to application. Does not control established perennial weeds.

Caution Do not apply to or around water. Do not apply to saturated, frozen, or snow-covered ground. Do not harvest hay within 40 days of application. Do not exceed a maximum rate of 0.065 lb ai/A (5 oz/A Rejuvra) in a single application. On grazed areas, do not apply more than 0.078 lb ai/A (6 oz/A Rejuvra) in a 12-month period.
