6 GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

Tordon 75-D is a translocated, hormone herbicide with a long soil residual life for controlling broadleaf plants.

7 APPLICATION METHODS AND TIPS:

Best results when applied to young actively growing plants and rain follows a few days later.

Maximum tank storage time - 1 week.

8 WEATHER:

Rainfast: 2 hours.

Frost effects:

Wind: Avoid spraying when wind is blowing towards sensitive crops.

Inversions: Don't spray in inversion conditions.

Temperature:

Delta T and relative humidity: Avoid application when Delta T is greater than

Soil moisture at application: Best results when soil moisture is not limiting growth.

9 ADJUVANTS:

Wetting agents: May be useful on hard to wet species.

Spray oils: Often used for summer spraying.

10 WATER QUALITY:

Hard water

Colloids

pH

11 COMPATIBILITY:

Trace elements.

12 EQUIPMENT:

Boom sprays:

Carrier volume: 20 to 1000 L/ha

Nozzles: Flat fan.

Pressure: 150-400 kPa.

13 SPRAYER DECONTAMINATION:

Clean Up:

Remove filters and clean separately. Rinse with soapy water (eg 500 mL or g of Drive, Dynamo, Omo or Surf per 100 L water) or water plus 0.25% wetting agent and run through boom. Rinse with water.

Decontamination:

Remove filters and clean then soak in 500 mL household ammonia in 10 L water for 30 minutes.

Rinse sprayer with soapy water (eg 500 mL or g of Drive, Dynamo, Omo or Surf per 100 L water) or water plus 0.25% wetting agent and run through boom. Fill with 1% solution of ammonia and allow to stand for several hours. Triple rinse with water. Or use a commercial spray tank and equipment cleaner.

Rinse nozzles and filters in water and replace.

Don't use chlorine based cleaners.

14 HERBICIDE RESISTANCE:

Genrally not a problem.

15 REPLANTING INTERVALS:

Crop	Time
Broad leaved crops	1-2 years depending on rate

25 TOXICITY SYMPTOMS:

26 FIRST AID:

27 ENVIRONMENTAL FATE:

2,4-D component

It has a half life in soil of months to years.

It has an EPA classification for soil mobility that ranges from

Ground water contamination

Replanting intervals

Accumulation in milk and tissues.

Picloram component

Picloram is rapidly converted to the parent acids in soil, water, plants and animals.

Picloram is residual in soil with a half life of 1-3 months. It is broken down mainly by microbial action.

Picloram has a half life in water of 1 to 40 days in water depending mainly on sunlight intensity. It is broken down in water by ultra violet radiation and is stable to hydrolysis at neutral to alkaline pH. It is broken down in soil by photo degradation and microbial action and has a half life in soil ranging from weeks to months. It normally remains in the top 30 cm of soil but may be found deeper on soils with poor adsorption properties.

Ground water contamination is possible.

Replanting intervals - 12 months for most species to 4 years for some species. Accumulation in milk and tissues has not been found.

It is stable in intact plants.

It can move in run-off water after heavy rainfall events as it dissolves in water rather than attaching to soil particles.

27 ENVIRONMENTAL FATE:

Half life in soil:

Half life in water: days at pH5 and 35 C.

It has an EPA classification for soil mobility that ranges from

Accumulation in milk and tissues.
