General Instructions:

Resistance Warning: RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING
GROUP A HERBICIDE
Crowbar Herbicide is a member of the aryloxphenoxypropionate group of herbicides.
Crowbar Herbicide is an inhibitor of acetyl coA carboxylase. For weed resistance Crowbar Herbicide is a Group A herbicide. Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to Crowbar Herbicide and other Group A 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 Crowbar Herbicide or other Group A herbicides.
Since occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Amgrow Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Crowbar Herbicide to control resistant weeds.

Precautions:

Protections: PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT
DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers, or waterways with the chemical or used containers.
PROTECTION OF CROP, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS
DO NOT apply under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants, adjacent crops (e.g. maize, sorghum, rice) crop lands or pasture. DO NOT plant susceptible crops (eg. maize, sorghum, rice) for 10 weeks after application.
UNDERSOWN CLOVERS AND MEDICS
Crowbar Herbicide does not affect undersown clovers or medics or other broadleaf crops, and has no activity against broadleaf weeds.

Storage and Disposal: Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight.
For Non-Refillable Containers: 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 a designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging 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.
For Refillable Containers: Storage must be secure so that contents cannot be tampered with. All locks and/or seals must be in order. If locks or seals are broken prior to initial use then the integrity of this product cannot be assured. If this occurs Amgrow Pty Ltd should be advised immediately. Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to point of supply for refill or storage.

Safety Directions: SAFETY DIRECTIONS

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

| CROP | WEED | STATE | WEED STAGE | RATE | CRITICAL COMMENTS |

| Wheat, linseed, triticale, canola, oilseed rape, safflower, rye, barley | Annual (Wimmera) Ryegrass | All States | 2 to 4 leaf | 1 L/ha | Apply generally 3 to 4 weeks after sowing, when cereals usually 2 to 5 leaves. For barley, apply only when crop is 4 to 5 leaf stage. Add wetting agent at 0.25% a.i. to water in spray tank. This is irrespective of volume of water/ha or rate of Crowbar Herbicide. DO NOT add wetting agent if mixing with some other sprays (refer compatibility). |
| | Common Barbgrass | NSW only | | 1.25 L/ha | |
| Lupins, peas | Annual Ryegrass | NSW, Vic, Tas, SA, WA only | 2 to 4 leaf | 1 L/ha | |
| | Common Barbgrass | NSW only | | 1.25 L/ha | |
| Wheat, linseed, triticale, oilseed rape, safflower, rye, barley, canola | Wild Oats | All States | 2 to 3 leaf | 1.5 L/ha | For barley, apply only when crop is 4 to 5 leaf stage. Avoid double spraying (overlap) at the maximum rate of 1.5 L/ha. In crops other than barley, use 2 L rate if most weeds 3 to 4 leaf and if spraying 4 to 6 weeks after sowing, especially in northern NSW and Qld. Add wetting agent as above. Use 1.5 L rate only if growing conditions are very favourable and weeds are 2 to 3 leaf, 3 to 4 weeks after sowing, and cereals usually 2 to 3 leaf. |
| | | | 3 to 4 leaf | 2 L/ha (not barley) | |
| Lupins, peas | Wild Oats | NSW, Vic, Tas, SA, WA only | 2 to 3 leaf | 1.5 L/ha | |
| | | | 3 to 4 leaf | 2 L/ha | |
| Pasture legume seed crops | Annual Ryegrass Wild Oats | All States | 2 to 4 leaf | 1 L/ha 1.5 to 2 L/ha | Add wetting agent as above. Ensure thorough coverage of weeds. |
| Oilseed poppies | Wild Oats, Annual Ryegrass (refer critical comments) | Tas only | See critical comments | 0.5 to 3 L/ha | DO NOT add wetting agent. Apply in accordance with recommendations made by the Department of Agriculture or the poppy contracting company. |

Tifdward | Crowsfoot Grass (Eleusine indica) | Qld, NSW, ACT only | See critical comments | 1 L/ha or 100 mL in 100 L of water per 1000 m² | Apply to weeds between the seedling and tillering stage for the best results. Use lower rates for seedlings and higher rates for established grass weeds. A repeat spray may be needed in 2 to 4 weeks. Results are best when Crowbar Herbicide is applied under good growing conditions and weeds have sufficient leaf area ie 2 to 3 days after mowing. |
| Queensland blue couch | | | | 1 to 1.5 L/ha or 100 to 150 mL in 100 L of water per 1000 m² | |

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
For best results apply when growing conditions are good to weeds and crop which are not stressed from factors such as severe frost, waterlogging or dry conditions. Avoid applying to crops which are covered in dew or frost. Wild oats germinating after application will often be stunted and will not seriously compete with the crop.
Results indicate that a spray mixture may be left overnight without loss of efficiency, if spraying cannot be completed but it is recommended that the spray mixture be used on the same day it is prepared.

MIXING
Fill the spray tank to about two thirds full with clean water and then add the required amount of Crowbar Herbicide. Add the remainder of the water with agitation system engaged. If a wetting agent is required add this last to prevent excessive foaming.

APPLICATION
Aim to apply this product to base of weeds to ensure penetration.

COMPATIBILITY
1. For broadleaf weed control in wheat, barley, triticale and rye, the following compatibilities are indicated. This product may be mixed with the following products without a significant loss of activity: Bromoxynil, Lontrel* (up to 150 mL/ha), dimethoate, omethoate and phosmet. This product may be mixed with the following products, but some loss of grass weed control and/or speed of kill should be expected: Bromoxynil + MCPA, Tigrex* (max. 800 mL/ha), MCPA LVE (max. 700 mL/ha). This product may be mixed with the following products, but some loss of Wild Oat control should be expected: Jaguar* (up to 750 mL/ha), Eclipse* (up to 7 g/ha).
2. When mixing with broadleaf herbicides and a non-ionic surfactant (1000 g/L) at the rate of 250 mL per 100 L of spray solution. Reductions in grass weed control (as indicated above) can be minimised by using a minimum of 80 L of water per hectare by ground and 30 L by air, and if Wild Oats are present, use 2.0 L Crowbar Herbicide/ha (except barley).
DO NOT use Bromoxynil + MCPA at rates above 1.4 L/ha when mixing with Crowbar Herbicide.
3. Allow at least 10 days between any application of Crowbar Herbicide and other herbicides containing 2, 4-D, MCPA, dicamba or other similar sprays, which should preferably follow Crowbar Herbicide.
4. For use in oilseed poppies in Tasmania only: Crowbar Herbicide may be mixed with pesticides as recommended by the Department of Agriculture or the poppy contracting company.
5. Where Phalaris is present, Crowbar Herbicide and Puma* S may be applied together at the respective recommended rates. Wetting agent should be added to this mixture at the rate recommended on the Crowbar Herbicide label.

EQUIPMENT
Ground Sprayers - Standard boom sprays only are recommended and must be fitted with by-pass or mechanical agitation. It is recommended to use approximately 50 to 150 L water/ha and a droplet size of 200 to 300 microns.
DO NOT apply with boomless jets or misters.
Aircraft - Best results have been obtained using 20 to 30 L water/ha with a steady cross wind and a swath width of 15 to 18 metres. Aim for a droplet size of 200 to 300 microns. DO NOT exaggerate swath width. Aircraft operators should consult manufacturer for details.
