`
`General Information
`
`Poast Plus® herbicide is a selective, broad spectrum,
`postemergence herbicide for control of annual and peren-
`nial grass weeds. Poast Plus does not control sedges or
`broadleaf weeds. Essentially, all grass crops, such as
`sorghum, corn, small grains, and rice, as well as ornamen-
`tal grasses, such as turf, are susceptible to Poast Plus.
`
`Mode of Action
`Poast Plus rapidly enters the target weed through its
`foliage and translocates throughout the plant. The effects
`range from slowing or stopping growth (generally within 2
`days), to foliage reddening and leaf tip burn. Subsequently,
`foliage burnback may occur. These symptoms will general-
`ly be observed within 3 weeks depending on environmen-
`tal conditions.
`
`Crop Tolerance
`All labeled crops are tolerant to Poast Plus at all stages of
`growth.
`
`Herbicide Resistance
`Repeated use of Poast Plus (or similar postemergence
`grass herbicides with the same mode of action) may lead
`to the selection of naturally occurring biotypes with resis-
`tance to these products. If poor performance cannot be
`attributed to adverse weather conditions or improper appli-
`cation methods, a resistant biotype may be present.
`Consult your local representative or agricultural advisor for
`assistance.
`
`Irrigation
`In irrigated areas, it may be necessary to irrigate before
`treatment to ensure active weed growth.
`
`Cultivation
`DO NOT cultivate within 5 days before or 7 days after
`applying Poast Plus. Cultivating 7 days or later after
`treatment may help provide season-long control.
`
`Cleaning Spray Equipment
`Clean spray equipment thoroughly using a strong deter-
`gent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the
`manufacturer’s directions before and after applying this
`product.
`
`Application Instructions
`
`Applications can be made to actively growing weeds as
`aerial, broadcast, band, or spot spray applications at the
`rates and growth stages listed in Tables 1, 2, and 3,
`unless instructed differently in the Crop-Specific
`Information section. The most effective control will result
`from making postemergence applications of Poast Plus
`early, when weeds are small. Delaying application permits
`weeds to exceed the maximum size stated and may pre-
`vent adequate control.
`
`Apply Poast Plus to the foliage of grasses uniformly and
`completely because large leaf canopies shelter smaller
`weeds and can prevent adequate spray coverage.
`DO NOT spray to the point of runoff.
`
`Spray Drift Management
`
`General Information Pertaining to Aerial and
`Ground Applications
`Make aerial or ground application when the wind velocity
`favors on-target product deposition. Apply only when the
`wind speed is less than or equal to 10 mph. For all non-
`aerial applications, wind speed must be measured to the
`application site on the upwind side, immediately prior to
`application. DO NOT make aerial or ground applications
`into areas of temperature inversions. Inversions are char-
`acterized by stable air and increasing distance above the
`ground. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inver-
`sion in humid areas. When permissible by local regula-
`tions, the applicator may detect the presence of an inver-
`sion by producing smoke and observing a smoke layer
`near the ground surface.
`
`All aerial and ground application equipment must be prop-
`erly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers.
`
`Aerial Application Methods and Equipment
`Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsi-
`bility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment-
`and weather-related factors determines the potential for
`spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible
`for considering all these factors when making decisions.
`
`DO NOT apply under circumstances where possible drift
`to unprotected persons, to food, forage, or other plantings
`that might be damaged, or crops thereof rendered unfit for
`sale, use or consumption can occur.
`
`The following drift management requirements must be fol-
`lowed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial appli-
`cations to agricultural field crops. These requirements
`DO NOT apply to forestry applications, public health uses
`or to applications using dry formulations.
`1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom
`must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or
`rotor.
`2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the
`air stream and never be pointed downward more than
`45 degrees.
`
`Where states have more stringent regulations, they should
`be observed.

`

`

`The applicator should be familiar with and take into
`account the information covered in the Aerial Drift
`Reduction Advisory Information.
`
`Information on Droplet Size
`The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply
`large droplets. Use the largest droplet size consistent with
`acceptable efficacy. Applying larger droplets reduces drift
`potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made
`improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions
`(see Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and
`Temperature Inversions).
`
`Formation of very small droplets may be minimized by
`appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away
`from the air stream as much as possible and by avoiding
`excessive spray boom pressure. For ground boom and
`aerial applications, use medium or coarse spray nozzles
`according to ASAE 572 definition for standard nozzles or a
`volume mean diameter (VMD) of 300 microns or greater
`for spinning atomizer nozzles.
`
`Controlling Droplet Size
`• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the high-
`est practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated
`flows produce larger droplets. Use a minimum of 5 gal-
`lons of water per acre. Increase water volume to a least
`10 gallons of water per acre if grass foliage or crop
`canopy is dense.
`• Pressure - DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufacturer’s
`recommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lower
`pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow
`rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of
`increasing pressure.
`• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of
`nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
`• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the
`spray is released parallel to the airstream produces larg-
`er droplets than other orientations and is recommended
`practice. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce
`droplet size and increase drift potential.
`• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for
`the intended application. With most nozzle types, nar-
`rower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider
`using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented
`straight back produce the largest droplets and the low-
`est drift.
`
`Boom Length
`For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length
`to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length may fur-
`ther reduce drift without reducing swath width.
`
`Application Height
`Applications should not be made at a height greater than
`10 feet above the top of the largest plants unless a greater
`height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at
`the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets
`to evaporation and wind.
`
`Swath Adjustment
`When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath
`will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and
`
`downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compen-
`sate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the air-
`craft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase
`with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller
`droplets, etc.).
`
`Wind
`Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2-
`10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and
`equipment type, determine drift potential at any given
`speed. Application should be avoided below 2 mph due to
`variable wind direction and high inversion potential.
`NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
`applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and
`how they affect spray drift.
`
`Temperature and Humidity
`Low humidity and high temperatures increase the evapora-
`tion of spray droplets and therefore the likelihood of
`increased spray drift. Avoid spraying during conditions of
`low humidity and/or high temperatures. When making
`applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to
`produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation.
`Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are
`both hot and dry.
`
`Temperature Inversions
`Applications should not occur during a temperature inver-
`sion because drift potential is high. Temperature inversions
`restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended
`droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can
`move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable
`winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions
`are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude
`and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and
`light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and
`often continue into the morning. Their presence can be
`indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present,
`inversions can also be identified by the movement of
`smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke genera-
`tor. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrat-
`ed cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inver-
`sion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissi-
`pates indicates good vertical air mixing.
`
`Sensitive Areas
`The pesticide should only be applied when the potential
`for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas,
`bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endan-
`gered species, or nontarget crops) is minimal (e.g. when
`wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas).
`
`Ground Application Methods and Equipment
`(Broadcast)
`For ground boom applications, apply with nozzle height no
`more than 4 feet above ground or crop canopy. DO NOT
`apply when conditions favor drift from target area or when
`windspeed is greater than 10 mph.
`
`Water Volume: Use 5-20 gallons of spray solution. In the
`West and in the High and Rolling Plains Region, (see
`regional descriptions in Table 1), DO NOT use less than
`10 gallons of spray solution per acre.
`

`PGR2021-00114
`BASF SE, Ex. 2027
`Page 5 of 15
`
`

`

`Spray Pressure: Use 40-60 psi (measured at the boom,
`not at the pump or in the line). When crop and weed
`foliage are dense, use a maximum of 20 gallons of water
`and 60 psi.
`
`Application Equipment: Use standard high-pressure
`pesticide flat fan or hollow cone nozzles spaced up to 20
`inches apart. DO NOT use flood, whirl chamber, or con-
`trolled droplet applicator (CDA) nozzles as erratic coverage
`can cause inconsistent weed control. When tall weeds
`such as volunteer corn are to be controlled, the boom
`should be high enough to cover the entire plant. Refer to
`the nozzle manufacturer’s directions for recommended
`height. When a crop such as cotton is 24 inches or taller
`and the grasses are below the crop canopy, use drop noz-
`zles to ensure good coverage of the grass species.
`
`DO NOT use selective application equipment such as
`recirculating sprayers or wiper applicators.
`
`Ground Application (Banding)
`Poast Plus® herbicide may be applied by banding to
`control annual grasses. Banding is not recommended for
`perennial grasses.
`
`Follow Ground Application (Broadcast) instructions for
`band applications. When applying Poast Plus by banding,
`determine the amount of herbicide and water volume
`needed using the following formula:
`
`Bandwidth in inches
`
`Row width in inches

`
`Spot or Small Area Application
`DO NOT make spot treatments in addition to broadcast or
`band treatments. When using knapsack sprayers or high-
`volume spray equipment with hand guns or other suitable
`nozzle arrangements, prepare a 1.5 to 2.25% solution of
`Poast Plus in water unless otherwise specified under
`specific crops. Use a concentration of 0.5% for Dash® HC
`and Sundance® HC spray adjuvants, or 1% for oil
`concentrate. Prepare the desired volume of spray solution
`by mixing the amount of Poast Plus and the amount of
`Dash® HC, Sundance® HC spray adjuvants or oil
`concentrate in water according to Tables 5 and 6.
`
`Rescue Treatment for Controlling Selected Annual
`Grasses
`If Poast Plus cannot be applied at the recommended
`time, larger annual grasses may be controlled with a later
`application by increasing the rate of Poast Plus (see
`Table 3). DO NOT exceed the maximum rate per acre,
`per season, for specific crops (see Table 7).
`
`Additives
`
`To achieve consistent weed control, always use one of the
`following additives: Dash HC, Sundance HC, methylat-
`ed/modified seed oil, or crop oil concentrate. In addition,
`urea ammonium nitrate or ammonium sulfate is recom-
`mended for use on alfalfa, cotton, peanuts, soybeans,
`Poast Protected™ field corn, and Poast Protected
`sweet corn to enhance activity on certain grass species.
`See Table 4. Additive Rates Per Acre for more informa-
`tion. However, when used in many vegetable crops under
`the following conditions, Poast Plus plus adjuvants should
`be used with caution due to potential crop leaf injury: when
`the temperature exceeds 90° F and the relative humidity is
`60% or greater, or anytime the temperature exceeds 100° F,
`regardless of the humidity.
`
`Because most nitrogen solutions are mildly corrosive to
`galvanized, mild steel, and brass spray equipment, rinse
`the entire spray system with water soon after use. UAN
`and AMS are not registered in California.
`
`Consult a BASF representative or local agricultural authori-
`ty for more information on the use of additives.
`
`Dash HC, Sundance HC, Crop Oil Concentrate, or
`Methylated Seed Oils
`A crop oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum or
`vegetable oil base and must meet all of the following
`criteria:
`• be non-phytotoxic,
`• contain only EPA-exempt ingredients,
`• provide good mixing quality in the jar test, and
`• be successful in local experience.
`
`The exact composition of suitable products will vary; how-
`ever, vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates should
`contain emulsifiers to provide good mixing quality.
`
`Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more satisfactory
`than unrefined vegetable oils. For more information, see
`Compatibility Test for Mix Components. For most
`crops, Dash HC or Sundance HC may be substituted for
`crop oil concentrate or methylated seed oil; however, for
`some crops and tank mixes, Dash HC, Sundance HC
`and MSO are not recommended. (See the Crop-Specific
`Information section for more information.)
`
`Nitrogen Source
`• Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN): Commonly referred to
`as 28%, 30%, or 32% nitrogen solution), UAN may be
`used in addition to Dash HC, Sundance HC, or crop oil
`concentrate to improve weed control. DO NOT use
`brass or aluminum nozzles when spraying UAN.
`• Ammonium Sulfate (AMS): AMS per acre may be sub-
`stituted for UAN. When liquid AMS is used, 3.0 quarts of
`8-8-0 analysis may be substituted for 2.5 pounds of dry
`AMS. Use high-quality AMS (spray grade) to avoid plug-
`ging of nozzles. Other sources of nitrogen are not as
`effective as those mentioned. If the AMS is added direct-
`ly to the spray tank, add slowly while agitating. Adding
`the mix too quickly may clog outlet lines. Be sure the
`AMS is completely dissolved before adding any other
`

`

`

`Always cap the jar and invert 10 cycles between compo-
`nent additions.
`
`When the components have all been added to the jar, let
`the solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solution for
`uniformity and stability. The spray solution should not have
`free oil on the surface, nor fine particles that precipitate to
`the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. If the spray solu-
`tion is not compatible, repeat the compatibility test with
`the addition of a suitable compatibility agent. If the solution
`is then compatible, use the compatibility agent as directed
`on its label. If the solution is still incompatible, DO NOT
`mix the ingredients in the same tank.
`
`Mixing Order
`1) Water. Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer
`tank three-quarters full of clean water.
`2) Agitation. Maintain constant agitation throughout mix-
`ing and application.
`3) Products in PVA bags. Place any product contained in
`water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait until
`all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the
`product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before
`continuing.
`4) Water-dispersible products (such as dry flowables,
`wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-
`emulsions).
`If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after the com-
`ponent has been added.
`5) Water-soluble products. If an inductor is used, rinse it
`thoroughly after the component has been added.
`6) Emulsifiable concentrates (such as Poast Plus or oil
`concentrate when applicable). If an inductor is used,
`rinse it thoroughly after the component has been added.
`7) Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN when
`applicable). If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly
`after the component has been added.
`8) Remaining quantity of water.

`See the Crop-Specific Information section for more
`details. Read and follow the applicable Restrictions and
`Limitations and Directions For Use on all products
`involved in tank mixing. The most restrictive labeling
`applies to tank mixes.
`
`Separate applications should be made if all target weeds
`are not at the labeled growth stage for treatment at the
`same time.
`
`Physical incompatibility, reduced weed control, or crop
`injury may result from mixing Poast Plus with other pesti-
`cides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, or miticides),
`additives, or fertilizers. BASF does not recommend using
`tank mixes other than those listed on BASF labeling. Local
`agricultural authorities may be a source of information
`when using other than BASF recommended tank mixes.
`
`Compatibility Test for Mix Components
`Before mixing components, always perform a compatibility
`jar test.
`
`For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups
`(800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates
`accordingly. Only use water from the intended source at
`the source temperature.
`
`Add components in the sequence indicated in the Mixing
`Order using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon
`for each pint of recommended label rate per acre.
