DIRECTIONS FOR USE

IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this

section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.

RESTRICTIONS:

1. Do not treat with YU SHU once a soil insecticide based on an organophosphate has been applied.

2. Do not mix with foliar or liquid fertilisers.

3. YU SHU can be used post-emergence at the recommended rate to directly target specific weed species. Choose the correct dose for the weeds present. As part of a weed resistance management plan YU SHU must be used in sequence with herbicides with other modes of action that are active against the same weeds, particularly in continuous maize.

4. How to best use this product, your local technical representative should be contacted.

5. Under certain conditions, some transient yellowing and/or crop stunting and/or loss of vigour can be seen from 1 to 2 weeks after treatment (2-8 leaves of maize). This is quickly outgrown and no yield effect has been shown.

6. Some flower deformation may be seen on particularly sensitive varieties e.g. Rival.

7. Applications should not be made to maize crops that are under stress, as this may lead to incidences of more persistent crop damage, such as loss of vigour, particularly when poorer growing conditions follow treatment. This may cause loss of yield. Take care to ensure that products are evenly applied at the recommended dose to a healthy crop.

8. Due to its high level of activity, care must be taken to avoid damage by spray drift onto plants outside the target area.

MIXING

Prior to mixing YU SHU, thoroughly rinse sprayer, tank, booms, hoses, and nozzles with water. Shake container well before pouring. Pour YU SHU into the spray tank half filled with water, and add the remainder of the water while agitating. If adding other post-emergence herbicides, add after YU SHU is thoroughly mixed in the half filled tank. Apply the spray mix within 24 hours of mixing.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Operator Protection

Engineering control of operator exposure must be used where reasonably practicable, in addition to the following personal protective equipment:

WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING (COVERALLS), SUITABLE PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND FACE PROTECTION (FACESHIELD) when handling the concentrate.

WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING (COVERALLS)

AND SUITABLE PROTECTIVE GLOVES when handling the contaminated surfaces.

WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING (COVERALLS) when applying by vehicle-mounted or trailed equipment.

TAKE OFF IMMEDIATELY all contaminated clothing.

WASH ALL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING thoroughly after use, especially the insides of gloves.

WASH HANDS AND EXPOSED SKIN before eating and drinking and after work.

If you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible).

Environmental Protection

To protect aquatic organisms respect an unsprayed buffer zone distance to surface water bodies in line with LERAP requirements.

DO NOT ALLOW DIRECT SPRAY from horizontal boom sprayers to fall within 5m of the top of the bank of a static or flowing water body, unless a Local Environment Risk Assessment for Pesticides (LERAP) permits a narrower buffer zone, or within 1 m of the top of a ditch which is dry at the time of application.

DO NOT ALLOW DIRECT SPRAY from hand-held sprayers to fall within 1m of the top of the bank of a static or flowing waterbody. Aim spray away from water.

This product qualifies for inclusion within the Local Environment Risk Assessment for Pesticides (LERAP) scheme. Before each spraying operation from a horizontal boom sprayer, either a LERAP must be carried out in accordance with CRD's published guidance or the statutory buffer zone must be observed. The results of the LERAP must be recorded and kept available for inspection for three years.

Do not contaminate water with the product or its container. Do not clean application equipment near surface water. Avoid contamination via drains from farmyards and roads.

Extreme care must be taken to avoid spray drift onto non-crop plants outside of the target area.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

STORAGE

Keep out of reach of children..

Store in original container tightly closed in a locked, dry, cool, well ventilated area away from foodstuffs, fertilizers and seeds.

PERSONAL PROTECTION

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of spray mist.

When handling wear protective clothing such as gloves, eye protection, overalls and boots.

Remove protective clothing and wash hands and face thoroughly before meals and after work.

Do not eat, drink or smoke while using.

EQUIPMENT

Apply using well maintained and accurately calibrated equipment. Flush equipment thoroughly with clean water after use.

RECORD KEEPING

Records of use as described in NZS 8409 Management of Agrichemicals must be kept.

DISPOSAL

Triple rinse container and add rinsate to spray tank. Triple rinsed containers containing the Xingyu logo on the label and that are free of all residues and have an intact legible label may be taken to an Xingyu collection site for disposal. Otherwise crush or puncture and bury in an approved landfill. Do not burn container. Do not use container for any other purpose. Dispose of product only by using according to label directions or dispose of safely at a managed landfill.

Control of Annual Grasses

Use: Apply 1.0 L/ha in 200 L/ha of water at 2-8 leaf stage of the crop, 2 leaves to early tillering of the weed.

Control of Broad-leaved Weeds:

Use: Apply at 1.0 L/ha in 200 L/ha of water at 2-8 leaf stage of the crop, 2 to 6 leaves of the weeds. (In order to give maximum control the weeds must be growing well and not under any form of stress).
