CANOPY XL use rate is to product peracre. CANOPY XL has a flexible rate range.

3 See Rate Tables. CANOPY XL may be tank mixed with many othersoybean herbicides for increased weed control. CANOPY XL may be applied after the Fall harvestand through the Spring for winter annual burndownand residual control of Spring annuals. See the Expanded Application Timing section. For burndown, always include a spray adjuvant, asrecommended in the burndown sections of this label. Apply in a minimum of 10 gal. water per acre byground using flat fan nozzles (25-40 psi) or hollowcone nozzles (40-60 psi). See ApplicationInformation. Certain crop rotation and pH restrictions apply. SeeRotational Crop Guidelines and Soils WhereCANOPY XL May Be Used sections. Consult label text for complete instructions.

If you want more options follow the instructionsfor Category A on an EPA chemical resistance categoryselection and other handlers must wear:Long-sleeved shirt and long Resistant Gloves Category A (such as butylrubber, natural rubber, neoprene rubber, or nitrile rubber),all >14 milsShoes plus clothing and other absorbent materials that have beendrenched or heavily contaminated with this product. Do notreuse them. Follow manufacturer's instructions forcleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions forwashables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPEseparately from other CONTROLSTATEMENTSWhen handlers use closed systems or enclosed cabs in amanner that meets the requirements listed in the WorkerProtection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFRpart (d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may bereduced or modified as specified in the HAZARDSThis pesticide is toxic to marine/estuarine not apply directly to water, to areas where surfacewater is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean highwater mark.

5 Drift and runoff may be hazardous toterrestrial and aquatic plants in neighboring areas. Do notcontaminate water when disposing of equipmentwashwaters or label advisory: Sulfentrazone is known to leachthrough soil into groundwater under certain conditions as aresult of label use. Use of this chemical in areas where soils arepermeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, mayresult in ground-water not use on coarse soils classified as sand which have lessthan 1 % organic water advisory:Sulfentrazone can contaminatesurface water through spray drift. Under some conditions,sulfentrazone may also have a high potential for runoff intosurface water (primarily via dissolution in runoff water), forseveral to many months post-application. These includepoorly draining or wet soils with readily visible slopes towardadjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas, areasoverlying extremely shallow ground water, areas with in-fieldcanals or ditches that drain to surface water, areas notseparated from adjacent surface waters with vegetated filterstrips, and areas over-lying tile drainage systems that drain tosurface HAZARDSDo not use or store near heat or open SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONSU sers should: Wash hands before eating, drinking,chewing gum, using tobacco or using the clothing immediately if pesticide gets wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.

Wash thoroughly with soap and water to or loss of desirable trees or vegetation may resultfrom failure to observe the following: Do not apply or drainor flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants,or on areas where their roots may extend, or in locationswhere the chemical may be washed or moved into contactwith their roots. Do not use on lawns, walks, driveways,tennis courts or similar areas. Prevent drift of spray todesirable plants. Do not contaminate any body of from contact with fertilizers, insecticides, fungicidesand seeds during to using DuPont CANOPY XL herbicide,consideration should be given to crop rotation other than soybeans may be extremely sensitive tolow concentrations of CANOPY XL remaining in the soilthe next planting season. Choice of rotation crop isrestricted following application of CANOPY XL.

8 (See"ROTATIONAL CROP GUIDELINES" for yourgeographical region.) Thoroughly clean CANOPY XL from applicationequipment immediately after use and prior to spraying cropsother than soybeans. Failure to remove even small amountsof CANOPY XL from application equipment may resultin injury to subsequently sprayed FOR USEIt is a violation of federal law to use this product in amanner inconsistent with its not apply this product in a way that will contact workersor other persons, either directly or through drift.

9 When applied according to the instructions on thislabel, it will control many broadleaf weeds and provide partialcontrol of annual and preplant incorporated applications ofCANOPY XL require rainfall or sprinkler irrigation toactivate the herbicide. Degree of control and duration of effectdepend on: rate used, weed spectrum, growing conditions atand following time of treatment, soil pH, texture, organicmatter, moisture and label contains specific use directions for two distinctgeographical use areas for CANOPY XL . The MidwestStates and the Southern Statesare defined underAPPLICATION METHODS. This label also containsgeneral use information which is applicable to allCANOPY XL use geography, and Regional recommen-dations that are defined by state ACTIVITYCANOPY XL has two modes of Action , and rapidlyinhibits the growth of susceptible species. Followingapplication of preplant incorporation or preemergencetreatment, susceptible species germinate and weeds will then either turn brown and die shortlyafter exposure to light, or seedling weeds will cease growthand then turn yellow and brown from the growing point species usually do not grow past the cotyledonstage before they die from either mode of Action .

10 Lesssusceptible species may remain green, but stunted andnoncompetitive. CANOPY XL provides partial control ofsome annual grasses when used preplant or preemergence,but other products may be needed to ensure growing conditions such as excessive moisture, cooltemperatures, and soil compaction or the presence ofvarious pathogens may impact seedling vigor. Under theseconditions the active ingredients in CANOPY XL , likeother soil applied herbicides, can injure , these early injury symptoms are short lived anddo not result in yield USE REQUIREMENTSUse this product only in accordance with its labeling andwith the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part Standard contains requirements for the protection ofagricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, andgreenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. Itcontains requirements for training, decontamination,notification, and emergency assistance. It also containsspecific instructions and exceptions pertaining to thestatements on this label about personal protectiveequipment (PPE) and restricted-entry interval.
