Afalon 50 SC

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Afalon herbicide contains 450 g/L Linuron. It can be applied pre- and post-emergence to control certain annual grasses, broadleaved weeds and some seedling perennial weeds in cereal, potatoes, carrots, parsnips. It is a selective systemic herbicide, absorbed principally by the roots but also by the foliage, with translocation primarily acropetally in the xylem. Shake well before opening.

APPLICATION
Shake well before use. Fill the spray tank with water to three quarters of the required volume, then pour the product into the tank with the agitation system running. Top up to required volume with water while still agitating. If combining with Rhino, add Afalon last. Ensure good agitation to give continuous suspension of product. After use flush out system with clean water and wash nozzles and filters.

BOOM SPRAYS: Use approximately 80 L-110 L water per hectare (ha).
AIRCRAFT: Use 20 L-30 L water per hectare (ha). Do not exaggerate swath width.

COMPATIBILITY
Afalon may be mixed with Rhino where recommended. DO NOT add wetting agent.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT
DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers and waterways with chemical or used containers.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS
DO NOT plant susceptible crops immediately following crops treated with Afalon.
DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands or pastures. Avoid overspraying, particularly on headlands or when turning.
DO NOT apply on light soils if heavy rain is likely within 24 hours of spraying as weed control may be reduced or some crop damage may occur. This is of particular importance with rates above 1 Litre and on soybeans.

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 or preferably pressure 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, puncture and bury empty containers in a local authority landfill. If no landfill is available, bury the containers below 500 mm in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots. Empty containers and product
should not be burnt.
