Trade Advice: General Instructions: DO NOT apply Sierraron 4G Herbicide during periods of intense rainfall, when wind speed exceeds 30 kph for ground application or under conditions which cause granule movement to non-target areas. On slopes of 20° to 30°, apply Sierraron 4G Herbicide by broadcast, strip or spot application only. On slopes greater than 30°, apply by spot application method only. DO NOT dispense via dust prone methods. Only use with applicators specifically designed to dispense granular products. Application Horticultural Situations: This product provides effective season-long control of many annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in a variety of horticultural situations. Application of the granules to a weed free surface ensures best results by preventing growth before it begins. Young, germinating weeds are killed. Take care to avoid letting granules lodge against buds. Commercial, Industrial and Aquatic Situations; Note: Consult your State Fisheries Department before applying this product to public waters. This product is an easy to use form of highly active chemical. Simply sprinkle the granules, at the recommended rates evenly over the area to be treated. This product is suitable for the use on driveways, paths and tennis courts where desirable trees are in close proximity. Resistance Warning: Sierraron 4G Herbicide is a member of the Nitrile group of herbicides. This product has diverse sites for mode of action. For weed resistance management, the product is a Group O herbicide. Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to the product and other Group O 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 other Group O herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Everris Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of this product to control resistant weeds.

PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK DO NOT graze livestock on treated areas. PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT Dangerous to fish. DO NOT contaminate dams, rivers or streams with the chemical or used containers. *** Page 3 of 3 Storage and Disposal: Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well ventilated area, out of direct sunlight.

Remove existing weeds by hand, desiccation or cultivation. Use higher rate on heavier soils. | | Orchards, including: Apples, Apricots, Citrus, Peaches, Plums, and Vineyards | | | 101-152 kg per treated hectare (2m x 5 km) | | | Blackcurrants, Raspberries, Gooseberries. | | Tas.

Apply two applications of the granules at 6-8 week intervals. Spread granules evenly over the soil of the area to be treated. Remove existing weeds by hand, desiccation or cultivation. Apply only to plants at least 6 months old. | | Commercial & Industrial Areas | Annual Weeds | | 300 – 420 g per 10 m² | Treatment prior to germination of the weeds will provide long lasting effect. Satisfactory result will be obtained if large weeds are chipped out, if treatment of seedling weeds is necessary. Use higher rate for heavier weed infestations. | | | Perennial Weeds | | 420 – 625 g per 10 m² | Treatment should be carried out when plants are dormant – usually in the colder months. Spot treatment of older or more established weeds. Use higher rate for heavier weed infestations. | | Aquatic Areas | Aquatic Weeds including Ribbonweed, Pondweeds, Milfoils (Cattail), Chara | | 2.9 – 3.9 kg per 100 m² | Exposed soil. Best results obtained when application is made to moist soil situation as close as is practicable to the time when these areas will be flooded. Use higher rate for heavier weed infestations. | | | | | 287 - 388 kg per hectare treated area OR 2.87 – 3.88 kg per 100 m² | For water less than one metre deep. Apply to standing (ie. Not moving) water and toward the end of the dormant period of the plant. Preferably July – August. Use higher rate for heavier weed infestations. | | | | | 388 - 574 kg per hectare treated area OR 3.9 – 5.7 kg per 100 m² | For water greater than one metre deep. Apply to standing water (ie.
