Application Information
How to Apply
:
Apply with ground equipment only. Do not apply by air.
Water volume
: 40
L/acre.
Mixing Instructions
Use mixing instructions “d” on page 13.
Application Tips
Water soluble bags will dissolve better when kept intact; do not split bags. If agitation is stopped for more that
5
minutes, re-suspend spray solution by full agitation prior to commencing spraying again. Do not spray Solo if
temperatures of +5ºC or lower are forecasted within 3 days of application. Temperatures near freezing (below 5ºC)
will prevent optimum herbicide performance, as weeds are not actively growing. Initial transient crop yellowing may
be observed after application, but this is outgrown and should not affect yield.
How it Works
Absorbed by foliage and roots. Disrupts plant metabolism causing growth to stop. Works best under good growing
conditions.
Expected Results
Susceptible weeds stop growing within 24 - 48 hours. Yellow striping and purplish or reddish discolouration of the
leaves may occur. Leaves begin to die in 3 - 10 days starting with the youngest and moving to the older leaves. Death
of the plant may occur in 1 - 3 weeks.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
Do not spray if there is a forecast of rain during or soon after application as the rain may reduce control.
Grazing
:
Do not graze treated crop or cut for feed within 20 days of application. Do not graze treated sunflower
plants or cut for straw; sufficient data are not available to support such use.
Pre-harvest Intervals
:
Do not harvest the treated crop within 60 days of application.
Re-cropping
:
Winter wheat may be seeded 3 months after application . Barley, canaryseed, all types of canola,
chickpeas, CLEARFIELD lentils, field corn, sunflowers (including CLEARFIELD varieties), field peas, flax, lentils,
oat, spring wheat (including durum) may be seeded the first spring after application. Condiment mustard can be
seeded 2 years after treatment. The company recommends that a field bioassay (a test strip grown to maturity) be
conducted the year before growing any crops other than those listed above. Contact manufacturer for additional
information on recropping intervals.
Environmental Precautions
Solo is highly toxic to aquatic plants and non-target terrestrial plants. Leave at least an11 metre buffer strip between
the point of application and sensitive aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Avoid runoff.
Toxicity
Low acute oral toxicity. Acute oral LD
50
(
rats) = 5,000 mg/kg. Non-toxic to fish, birds and bees.
