stitute, or surfactant may cause unacceptable injury to the conifers. <br />Broadcast Applications for Conifer Release in the Eastern United States <br />To release spruce, fir, red pine, and white pine from competing hardwoods such as red <br />maple, sugar maple, striped maple, alder, birch (white, yellow, and grey), aspen, ash, pin <br />cherry, and Rubus spp. and perennial and annual broadleaf weeds, apply Alligare Triclopyr <br />4 at 1.5 to 3 quarts per acre alone or in a tank mix with 2,4-D amine or low volatile ester. <br />Apply no more than 4 pounds acid equivalent per acre from both products. Make applica- <br />tions in late summer or early fall after conifers have formed their over -wintering buds; and <br />hardwoods are in full leaf prior to aulumn coloration. <br />Broadcast Applications for Conifer Release in the lake Stales Region <br />To release spruce, fir, and red pine from competing hardwoods such as aspen, birch, maple, <br />cherry, willow, oak, hazel, and Rubus spp. and perennial and annual broadleaf weeds, apply <br />Alligare Triclopyr 4 at rates of 1.5 to 3 quarts per acre.. Make applications in late summer or <br />early fall after conifers have formed their over -wintering buds and hardwoods are in full leaf <br />prior to autumn coloration. <br />Application Directions for Rangeland, Permanent Grass Pastures, and Conservation <br />ReserveProgram_,(CRP) Acres,,, <br />Refer to Tables 1 and 2 of this label for a list of woody plants and broadleaf weeds that are <br />controlled by Alligare Triclopyr 4. <br />Florida: Alligare Triclopyr 4 may be applied to non -irrigation ditchbanks and lencerows on <br />farms and ranches in addition to those uses listed in this section of the label.. <br />Application Methods <br />Foliage Treatment with Ground Equipment <br />Use sufficient spray volume to completely and uniformly cover foliage using 10 or more gal- <br />lons of total spray volume per acre.. To ensure adequate coverage of plants with increased <br />depth and density of foliage, and particularly for treatment of woody plants, use higher spray <br />volumes. <br />High -Volume Foliage Treatment <br />To control susceptible woody plants, use the recommended rate of Alligare Triclopyr 4 alone <br />or in a tank mix to make 100 gallons of spray mixture. For rangeland and permanent pas- <br />ture sites, make 1 application per year and apply no more than 2 quarts of Alligare Triclopyr <br />4 (2 lbs. ae of triclopyr) per acre... Alligare Triclopyr 4 may be tank mixed with other herbicides <br />at recommended rates (see application rates table below) to control a broader spectrum of <br />woody plants and broadleaf weeds. Be sure to follow all applicable use directions, precau- <br />tions, and limitations on the respective product labels when tank mixing. <br />Apply sufficient spray volume to thoroughly wet all leaves, stems, and root collars. Minimize <br />spray drift by using the minimum spray pressure that provides adequate plant coverage with- <br />out forming a mist and direct sprays no higher than the top of the target plants. A drift control <br />additive cleared for application to growing crops may also be used to reduce spray drift. For <br />best results, apply when woody plants and weeds are actively growing. <br />Application Rates per 100 Gallons of Spray <br />Y1jYfgare'Yr clopyr 4� <br />„ Plus Yank Mix Product <br />"Rate (qt) <br />_......1.-.4..qt..................._ <br />.....�........._.�._.�._._... <br />1-2 qt <br />Grazon` P+D specialty herbicide <br />4 <br />1-2 pt <br />2,4-D low volatile ester herbicide <br />1 2 <br />—m1-2mgt <br />Tordon' or Picloram 22K specialty herbicide <br />1-2 <br />.--_..---------2-gI--..-..„.._.-..,..._.„._...... <br />Reclaim" specially herbicide's <br />� 2 <br />'Reclaim' is registered for use only in Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico <br />'See directions for Mesquite Control Using High Volume Foliage Treatment below. <br />Mesquite Control Using High Volume Foliage Treatment: To control low to moderate den- <br />sity mesquite infestations, apply a tank mixture of Alligare Triclopyr 4 and Reclaim' to <br />individual plants with a backpack or hand-held sprayer or a vehicle -mounted sprayer with <br />hand-held spray wand or spray gun. For individual plant treatment, use 2 quarts of Alligare <br />Triclopyr 4 with 2 quarts of Reclaim' per 100 gallons of total spray solution (1/2 % v/v of each <br />product). Apply in water or as an oil -water emulsion as described in the Mixing Directions <br />Section, If an oil -water emulsion is used, add the oil at a rate of 5 % of the total spray volume. <br />Apply as a complete spray -to -wet foliar application, including all leaves. Thorough coverage <br />is necessary for good results, but do not spray to the point of runoff„ This application method <br />works best for brush less than 8 feet tall since efficient treatment and thorough coverage of <br />taller brush is difficult to achieve using this method. Do not apply when mesquite foliage is <br />wet. The total amount of Reclaim` applied should not exceed 1 113 pints per acre. For best <br />results, follow information given elsewhere in this label concerning effect of environmental <br />conditions and application timing on control. To minimize drift, select a spray nozzle and pres- <br />sure that generates a coarse spray and provides good coverage. Drift may be reduced by <br />directing sprays no higher than the top of target plants and by using the minimum pressure <br />necessary to obtain plant coverage without forming a mist. If desired, a spray dye may be <br />added to the spray mixture to mark the treated plants. <br />Broadcast Application With Aerial or Ground Equipment <br />Brush and weed control results are influenced by environmental conditions and application <br />timing; for best results, apply when woody plants and weeds are actively growing. For woody <br />species, apply when leaf tissue is fully expanded and terminal growth has slowed after the <br />rapid growth period of early spring To ensure adequate foliage for herbicide absorption, <br />brush regrowth should be at least 4 ft, high prior to treatment. The presence of healthy <br />foliage at the time of application as well as adequate soil moisture before and after treatment <br />are important factors contributing to optimal herbicidal activity, <br />Apply sufficient spray volume to completely and uniformly cover foliage using 10 or more gal- <br />lons of total spray volume per acre for ground applications and at least 2 gallons of total <br />1,1:11 R1 i-me <br />spray volume per acre for aerial applications„. To ensure adequate coverage of plants with <br />increased depth and density of foliage, and particularly for treatment of woody plants, use <br />higher spray volumes. <br />Mesquite: The herbicidal response of mesquite is strongly influenced by foliage condition, <br />growth stage and environmental conditions., For best results, apply when soil moisture is <br />adequate for plant growth, the soil temperature is above 75°F at a depth of 12 to 18 inches, <br />and new growth foliage has turned from light to dark green. Apply within 60 days after the <br />75'F minimum soil temperature at the 12 to 18 inch depth has been reached ([he rate of soil <br />warm-up at the 12 to 1 B inch depth may vary with soil texture and drainage with coarse -tex- <br />tured (sandy) soils warming up sooner than fine -textured (clay) soils and dry soils warming <br />up more quickly than wet soils). If the application is made before mesquite foliage has turned <br />from light to dark green or if foliage has been injured or removed by late frost, insects, hail <br />or plant diseases, product performance may be adversely affected. Do not treat if mesquite <br />exhibits new (light green) terminal growth in response to recent heavy rainfall during the <br />growing season and to ensure adequate foliage for herbicide absorption, mesquite regrowth <br />should be at least 4 ft, high prior to treatment. <br />Mesquite Only <br />Apply Yz to 1 pint of Alligare Triclopyr 4 per acre in combination with 2/3 to 1 1/3 pints per <br />acre of Reclaim'. Refer to the Reclaim' label for additional treatment recommendations and <br />information on mesquite control. Apply as an oil/water emulsion in 4 gallons or more total vol- <br />ume per acre for aerial applications or in 10 gallons or more total volume per acre for ground <br />applications, Use no more than 1 gallon of oil per acre for both aerial and ground applica- <br />tion. <br />Mesquite and Pricklypear Cactus <br />For pricklypear cactus in association with mesquite, apply a lank mix of % to 1 pint of Alligare <br />Triclopyr 4 with 1 to 2 pints of Tordon' or Picloram 22K per acre For a higher and more uni- <br />form plant kill of pricklypear, use the 2 pint per acre rate of Tordon' or Picloram 22K. To <br />control pricklypear while providing improved control of mesquite, Tordon' or Picloram 22K <br />may also be applied in combination with Reclaim'. Refer to the Tordon" or Picloram 22K and <br />Reclaim" labels for additional information and treatment recommendations. Apply as an <br />oilfwater emulsion in 4 gallons or more total volume per acre for aerial applications or in 10 <br />gallons or more total volume per acre for ground applications. Use no more than 1 gallon of <br />oil per acre for both aerial and ground application. <br />South Texas Mixed Brush (Mesquite, Pricklypear Cactus, Blackbrush, Twisted Acacia <br />and Granjeno) <br />If pricklypear is a problem, apply 1 to 2 pints of Alligare Triclopyr 4 in a tank mixture with 2 <br />pints of Tordon` or Picloram 22K per acre. If mesquite is the prevalent species apply 1 to 2 <br />pints of Alligare Triclopyr 4 with 2/3 to 1 1/3 pints of Reclaim" per acre. Alligare Triclopyr 4 <br />contributes to the control of non -legume species such as granjeno and oaks; however, for <br />improved control if primarily woody legume species are present, apply 2 pints of Tordon' or <br />Picloram 22K per acre in combination with 2/3 to 1 1/3 pints of Reclaim' per acre. Refer to <br />the Tordon' or Picloram 22K and Reclaim' labels for additional information and treatment <br />recommendations. Apply as an oil/water emulsion in 4 gallons or more total volume per acre <br />for aerial applications or in 15 gallons or more total volume per acre for ground applications. <br />Use no more than 1 gallon of oil per acre for both aerial and ground application. For accept- <br />able brush control, an oil/water emulsion and good spray coverage is critical.. <br />Sand Shinnery Oak Suppression <br />In Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma, for suppression of shinnery oak growing on sandy <br />soils apply Alligare Triclopyr 4 alone at a rate of % to 2 pints per acre. Following suppres- <br />sion, grass response may be significant if rainfall is adequate.. Deferring grazing after <br />application together with proper grazing management is recommended to allow for the <br />reestablishment of grass stands. <br />Post Oak and Blackjack Oak— Regrowth Stands <br />Apply when oak leaves are fully developed (expanded) in late spring to early summer (May - <br />July). Use 2 quarts of Alligare Triclopyr 4 alone or in tank mix combination with 0.5 to 1 pint <br />of 2,4-D low -volatile ester herbicide per acre. Apply as an oil/water emulsion or water sur- <br />factant dilution in at least 5 gallons per acre total volume by fixed -wing aircraft or helicopter <br />or 15 to 25 gallons per acre total volume by ground equipment. Use no more than 1 gallon <br />of oil per acre for both aerial and ground application. For suppression only, lower rates may <br />be used. Control will require at least 3 consecutive treatments. Note: Because regrowth <br />plants have a large root mass relative to top growth, delay broadcast treatment until top <br />growth is at least 4 ft. tall in order for the top growth to intercept and translocate sufficient <br />herbicide to control the roots. <br />High Volume Foliage Treatment: For regrowth less than 4 ft tall, apply 2 quarts of Alligare <br />Triclopyr 4 per 100 gallons of water and 2 quarts of ag surfactant alone or in tank mix com- <br />bination with 1 gallon of Grazon' P+D or 1 quart of Tordon` or Picloram 22K. Apply to <br />individual plants as a high volume leaf -stem treatment using ground equipment. <br />Post Oak and Blackjack Oak — Mature Stands <br />To control mature stands (greater than 5 ft tall), apply 2 quarts of Alligare Triclopyr 4 per acre <br />when oak leaves are fully developed (expanded) in late spring to early summer (May -July). <br />When using Alligare Triclopyr 4 alone, some understory species such as winged elm, buck - <br />brush, tree huckleberry and ash occurring in some areas will be suppressed or defoliated but <br />not controlled. Where these understory species occur, control may be improved by tank mix- <br />ing 2 quarts of Alligare Triclopyr 4 with 1 quart of Tordon' or Picloram 22K or 4 quarts of <br />Grazon' P+D per acre. For best results, apply using fixed -wing aircraft or helicopter as an <br />oil/water emulsion in a total volume of 5 or more gallons per acre. <br />Other Susceptible Woody Plants <br />Apply 2 to 4 pints of Alligare Triclopyr 4 alone or in combination with 2 to 3 quarts of 3.8 lb/gal <br />2,4-D low volatile ester or amine formulation per acre. If applications are made when plants <br />are mature late in the summer, during drought conditions, or if difficult to control species such <br />as ash, choke cherry, elm, maple or oaks are prevalent on the site, use the higher rates of <br />Alligare Triclopyr 4, alone or with 2,4-D. For increased control of certain species, Alligare <br />Triclopyr 4 may also be applied in a tank mixture with Grazon' P+D or Tordon' or Picloram <br />22K, refer to the labels for Grazon" P+D and Tordon' or Picloram 22K for additional informa- <br />
