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.

Oryx is a residual herbicide that can be used on all varieties of winter-sown oilseed rape for the control of cleavers and a range of other broad-leaved and grass weeds.

1. Restrictions/Warnings

When Oryx is applied pre-emergence, it is important for crop safety to ensure physical separation of the herbicide from the seed.This is achieved by ensuring that the seed is well covered with soil to a depth of 15 mm.With direct-drilled crops, harrow across the slits to cover the seed before spraying. Loose or puffy seedbeds must be consolidated before treatment.

Seedbeds should be moist, firm and free from clods.

Oryx is suitable for use on all soil types as defined by Soil Texture (85) System, except sands and very light soils and soils containing more than 10% organic matter.

On brashy and stony soils, Oryx may cause some reduction in crop vigour and/or plant stand, due to the chemical moving down to the root zone too quickly.

Do not apply Oryx to soils with a compaction layer or to poorly drained soils, since damage can occur under waterlogged conditions.

If Oryx is applied onto a dry soil surface it will only be effective after rain has occurred.

To reduce the risk of movement of Oryx to water:-a. On clay soils, create a fine, consolidated seedbed to slow the downward movement of water.b. Do not apply Oryx to dry soil. Moist soils have fewer and smaller cracks.c. Do not apply Oryx if heavy rain is forecast, wait until after the event.

A reduction in crop vigour, weed control and possibly plant stand may occur if excessive rain falls shortly after application, particularly on the lighter soils. Where a crop check has occurred, this normally grows out after a few weeks and yields are normally unaffected.

Do not use on broadcast crops.

Do not overlap spray swaths, particularly on headlands.

Do not treat crops which are suffering from wilting, pests or diseases.

Under frosty conditions a transient scorch may occur.

Avoid spray drift onto neighbouring crops.

Consult Processors before use.

S = Susceptible; Pre-em = Pre-emergence of weed;MS = Moderately Susceptible; – = No informationMR = Moderately Resistant;R = Resistant;* Only plants from seed of this species are controlled

2.2 ResistanceStrains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild-oats, and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop adviser or product manufacturer.

3. CropsOryx can be used on all varieties of winter-sown oilseed rapeOryx may be applied pre- or post-emergence of the crop but for maximum activity application must be pre-emergence of the weeds.Pre‑crop emergence applications should be made on medium and heavy soils only (as defined by the ADAS Soil Texture (85) System). Applications should be made before the crop seed chits, which in warm moist soils may occur within 48 hours of drilling. Seedbeds should be moist, firm and free from clods, but also see Restrictions/Warnings section. DO NOT USE ON BROADCAST CROPS.DO NOT USE Oryx pre-crop emergence when any of the following conditions apply:-• Whenheavyrainisforecast• Drycloddyseedbeds

• Stonysoils,i.e.stones,flintsorchalk,readilyvisibleonthesoilsurface.Post‑crop emergence applications can be made on light, medium and heavy soils (as defined by the ADAS Soil Texture (85) System). Applications can be made from when the majority of the crop has two fully expanded cotyledons until before the end of January. The soil should be moist at application, or rainfall must occur shortly after application, but also see Restrictions/Warnings section.Post emergence application of Oryx is recommended if:-• Seedbedconditionsarenotidealforpre-emergenceuse• Theseedisnotcoveredwith15mmofsoil(aswithbroadcastcrops)• Oryxcouldnotbeappliedbeforetheseedcropchits• Lightsoils,orallrecommendedsoilswhicharestony,brashyorgravely,aretobetreated,particularlyifheavyrainfallhas

4. Following CropsAny crop can follow normally harvested winter oilseed rape treated with Oryx. Ploughing is not essential before sowing a following cereal crop, but is required for other crops.In the event of crop failure in the autumn or winter, then only the crops listed below can be drilled after the use of Oryx:Re-drilling the following spring - spring barley and potatoes may be sown after ploughing.

5. Mixing and SprayingApply 3.0 litres/hectare Oryx.Apply as a MEDIUM spray, as defined by BCPC.Oryx should be applied in a minimum water volume of 220 litres/hectare.Do not use filters finer than 50 mesh.SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE.Half fill the spray tank with clean water and start the agitation.Pour in the required amount of Oryx.Add the remainder of the water and continue agitation until spraying is completed.Rinse empty containers thoroughly and add rinsings to the spray tank.Do not overlap spray swaths, particularly on headlands.Avoid spray drift onto neighbouring crops.WASH EQUIPMENT thoroughly immediately after use.Fill the tank with clean water and leave overnight.Spray out before storage or using other products.Traces of the product may cause damage to susceptible crops sprayed later.

The following does not form part of the product label under the Control of Pesticides Regulations 1986.With many products there is a general risk of resistance developing to the active ingredients. For this reason a change in activity cannot be ruled out. It is generally impossible to predict with certainty how resistance may develop because there are so many crop and use connected ways of influencing this. We therefore have to exclude liability for damage or loss attributable to any such resistance that may develop. To help minimise any loss in activity the BASF recommended rate should in all events be adhered to.Numerous, particularly regional or regionally attributable, factors can influence the activity of the product. Examples include weather and soil conditions, crop plant varieties, crop rotation, treatment times, application amounts, admixture with other products, appearance of organisms resistant to active ingredients and spraying techniques. Under particular conditions a change in activity or damage to plants cannot be ruled out. The manufacturer or supplier is therefore unable to accept any liability in such circumstances. All goods supplied by us are of high grade and we believe them to be suitable, but as we cannot exercise control over their mixing or use or the weather conditions during and after application, which may affect the performance of the material, all conditions and warranties, statutory or otherwise, as to the quality or fitness for any purpose of our goods are excluded and no responsibility will be accepted by us for any damage or injury whatsoever arising from their storage, handling, application or use; but nothing should be deemed to exclude or restrict any liability upon us which cannot be excluded or restricted under the provisions of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 or any similar applicable law.
