Not all glyphosate products are registered for pre-harvest application on all crops species listed above. Refer to individual crop labels for registered uses
and crop species.
Weeds Controlled and Staging
Quackgrass (4 - 5 green leaves), Canada thistle (at bud stage or beyond), common milkweed (bud to full bloom),
toadflax (bud to full bloom), dandelions (rosette to full bloom), season-long control of perennial sow-thistle (at
or beyond the bud stage), and most of the annual weeds which are green at the time of pre-harvest application.
Harvest Management Benefits
This treatment may also provide harvest management benefits by drying down crop and vegetative crop growth.
Apply only during the period 7-14 days before harvest to ensure best weed control and to maximize harvest
management benefits. Earlier application may reduce crop yield and/or quality and may lead to excess glyphosate
residues in the crop. Extremely cool, wet and cloudy weather conditions between time of application and the
anticipated harvest date may slow down activity of this product, thereby delaying crop dry down and harvest date.
Environmental Precautions
Over-spray or drift to important wildlife habitats such as bodies of water, wetlands (e.g., sloughs), shelterbelts,
woodlots and other cover on the edges of fields frequented by wildlife, should be avoided.
Ground Application:
Leave a 15-metre buffer zone between the last spray swath and the edge of any of these
habitats. Do not expose or contaminate any body of water or non-target vegetation by direct application, spray drift,
or when cleaning and rinsing spray equipment.
Aerial applications:
maintain a 25 metre buffer zone from water and wetland areas, and 55 metre buffer from
shelterbelts, woodlots, and other cover on the edge of treated fields.
For Use in Glyphosate Tolerant Crops
Glyphosate Tolerant Canola
Crop:
Canola variety with Roundup ready gene. Always use pedigreed (certified) canola seed. Canola which is not
designated as glyphosate tolerant will be damaged or destroyed by this treatment. Note: Not all glyphosate products
are registered.
Crop Stage:
Up to and including 6-leaf stage of glyphosate tolerant canola. Temporary yellowing may occur if
applied at the 4 to 6 leaf stage of the crop.
With:
Ground application only.
Water Volume:
40 - 90
L/acre.
Grazing and Cropping Restrictions:
All portions of the treated crop may be fed to livestock.
