GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Application Apply with a calibrated garden, backpack, power or boom sprayer. Apply in a minimum of 800 L of water per hectare (8 L of water per 100 m²). Silverado Herbicide is best applied in overcast dry conditions to avoid rapid evaporation.
Spray Preparation & Clean Up One of Silverado’s active constituents is carfentrazone-ethyl, a fast acting contact herbicide which controls weeds through a process of membrane disruption, and to ensure optimum performance and crop tolerance, the product needs to be used in spray equipment that is thoroughly cleaned, with no residues from previous sprays. To avoid injury to following crops, immediately after spraying, thoroughly remove all traces of Silverado Herbicide from mixing and spray equipment. This can be achieved by using a specialist boom-cleaning product.
RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING GROUP 14 4 HERBICIDE Silverado Herbicide is a member of both the aryl triazoline and phenoxy groups of herbicides. Silverado Herbicide has both the process of membrane disruption, which is initiated by the inhibition of the enzyme protoporphyrinogen oxidase, and disruption of plant cell growth modes of action. For weeds resistance management Silverado Herbicide, is a Group 14 and Group 4 herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Silverado Herbicide and other Group 14 and Group 4 herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by this product or Group 14 and Group 4 herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Turf Culture accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Silverado Herbicide to control resistant weeds.
PRECAUTIONS DO NOT use this product in the home garden.
Re-entry Periods General Public DO NOT allow entry into treated areas until the spray has dried. Occupational Workers DO NOT enter treated areas until the spray has dried unless wearing cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist (or equivalent clothing) and chemical resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day's use.
PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS Contact with wanted plants and trees except lawns may cause severe damage. DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment, that may cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands or pastures.
PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or watercourses with the chemical or the used containers.
STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on-site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush or puncture and deliver empty packaging for appropriate disposal to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots, in compliance with relevant Local, State or Territory government regulations. DO NOT burn empty containers or product.
