IMPORTANT Injury to or loss of desirable trees or vegetation may result from failure to observe the following: Do not apply or drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants, or on areas where their roots may extend, or in locations where the chemical may be washed or moved into contact with their roots. Do not use on lawns, walks, driveWB}", tennis courts or similar areas. Prevent drift of spray to desirable plants. Do not contaminate any body of water. Keep from contact with fertilizers, insecticides, fungicides and seeds during storage.

Prior to using DuPont™ CANOPY XL® herbicide, consideration should be given to crop rotation plus. Crops other than soybeans may be extremely sensitive to low concentrations of CANOPY XL® remaining in the soil the next planting season. Choice of rotation crop is restricted following application of CANOPY XL®. (See "ROTATIONAL CROP GUIDELINES' for your geographical region.)

Thoroughly clean CANOPY XLIlIi from application equipment immediately after use and prior to spraying crops other than soybeans. Failure to remove even small amounts of CANOPY XL® from application equipment may result in injury to subsequently sprayed crops.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

Do not apply this product in a way that will contact worlcen or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tn"be, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS Use this product only in acconIance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CPR part 170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural worlcen on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of apicultural pesticides. It contains requirements for 1I1Iiomg, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific insttuctions and exceptions pertaining to the ststements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-entty interval. The requtmDents in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.

Do not enter or allow worker entty into treated areas during the restricted entty interval (REI) of 12 hOlDS. PPE required for early entty to tteated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, is:

Coveralls over long-sleeved shirt and long pants. Chemical Resistsnt Gloves Category A (such as butyl rubber, natural rubber, neoprene rubber, or nitrile rubber), all ~14 mils. Shoes plus socks.

FOR USE ON SOYBEANS ONLY Do not apply aerially. Do not apply this product thmugh any type of irrigation system. Do not feed trested soybean forage or soybean hay to livestock. Single application: Do not apply a full rate of CANOPY XL® more than once per soybean aopping cycle. SpUt appHcatioll: Two applications totaling the fully labeled CANOPY XL® rate may be made per soybean ClOpping cycle. Do Dot exceed the run labeled rate for the geography. CANOPY XL® berllicide must be used only in accordance with recommendations on this label or in separately published DuPont recommendations.

GENERAL INFORMATION CANOPY XL® herbicide is a dispersible granule formulation to be mixed with water and sprayed for selective preemergence and preplant incorporated weed control in soybeans. When applied acconIing to the instructions on this label, it will control many broadIesf weeds and provide partial control of annual grasses. Preemergence and preplant incorporated applications of CANOPY XL® require rainfitll or sprinkler irrigatioD to activate the herbicide. ~ of control and duration of effect depend on: rate used, weed spectrum, growing conditions at aruI following time of treslment, soil pH, texture, organic matter, moisture and precipitation.

This label contains specific use directions for two distinct geographical use antlS for CANOPY.n®. The AI/4we$t S_ and the Stndlrem SIllIeS are defined ruuJer APPLICATION METHODS. This iDbel also contabu general use inj'ormtIIio1J which is applicable to all CANOPY.n® use geog'lIphy. and Regional recommen­dluioll$ that are dejiMd by Mate lists.

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY CANOPY XL® has two modes of action, and rapidly inlubits the growth of suscepnble species. Following application ofpreplant incorporation or preemergence treatment, suscepn"le species germinate and emerge. Seedling weeds will then eitber tum brown and die shortly after exposure to light, or seedling weeds will cease growth and then tum yellow and brown from the growing point out. Suscepnble species usually do not grow past the cotyledon stsge before they die from either mode of action. Less susceptible species may remain green, but stunted and noncompetitive. CANOPY XL® provides partial control of some annual grasses when used preplant or preemergence, but other products may be needed to ensure adequate control.

Poor growing conditions such as excessive moisture, cool temperatures, and soil compaction or the presence of vatious pathogens tnay impact seedling vigor. Under these conditions the active ingredients in CANOPY XLIlIi, like other soil applied herbicides, can injure soybeans. However, these early injury symptoms are short lived and do not result in yield reductions.

Best results are ob1ained if CANOPY XL® is applied 10 moist soil and followed by rainfall or irrigation (-I ") before weeds germinate. Several small rainfalls ofless than 114" each are not as beneficial u one large rainfall of 112-1". On dry soil, more moislure is required for activation (1-2") before weed emergence. If moisture is insufficient to activate !be herbicide, a rotary hoeing or shallow cultivation should be made after emeraence of the crop while weeds are small enough to be controlled by mechanical mesDS.

CONSERVATION llUAGE: EARLY PRE-PlANT IN NO-llLL, MINIMUM llLL, OR STALE SEEDBED CANOPY XL® applied Early Pre-plant will provide bumdown of many existing weeds as wen as normal' prcemcrgence broadlcsfweed control. When Dsed for bDmdown, CANOPY XL® Is ralnfut after ODe 1I0ar.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SOIL PH • ALL STATES Soil pH varies greIIIy, even within the same field pH variations as much as 2 pH units are common. Composite soil samples taken across an entire field, such u those samples taken for soil fertility recommendations, may not detect areas of high pH. Sub-sampling is recommended fur areu likely to bave pH values bigher than the field average. Tbe fonowing is a non·inclusive list of potentia1 high pH areas wbere subaampling is recommended.

• Where different soil types are evident within • field, sample soil types separately.

• Where conditions vary within a field, sample areas separately, such as: • areas bordered by 1imestone gravel roads,

• river bottoms subject to flooding,

• low areas in hardpan soils where evaporative ponds may occur,

• eroded hillsides,

• along dmin tile lines, and

• areas where drainage ditch spoil bas been spread. • Where lime bas not been deeply incoIpora1ed, soil may

exhibit significantly higher pH values in the upper '3 inches of soil. Composite soil samples taken at a (HI inch depth may not reflect the elevated pH near the surface. In these cases sballow samplin&, the upper 3 inches, is advised.

Determine soil pH by laboratory analysis using a 1:1 lOiI:water suspenaioo.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT· ALL STATES The interaction of many equipment and weaIber-re1aled factors detennines the potentill for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for consideriDg III these factors wben making application decisions. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSlBll.rrv OF THE APPLICATOR. IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets (>150·200 microns). The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that pmvide sufficient coverage and control. The presence of sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift control and coverage. APPLYING LARGER DROPLETS REDUCES DRIFT POTENTIAL, BUT Wll.L NOT PREVENT DRIFT IF APPLICATIONS ARE MADE

IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE ENVIRON­MENTAL CONDmONS! See WInd, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature inversions sections of this label. Controlling Droplet Size· General Techniques • Voillme - Use high now rate nozzles to apply the highest

practical spray volume. Nozzles with higber rated nows produce larger droplets.

• Presaore - Use the lower spray pressures recommended for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and does not improve canopy penetration. WHEN HIGHER FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE A HIGHER-CAPACITY NOZZLE INSTEAD OF INCREASING PRESSURE.

• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low­driftnozzlea.

BOOM HEIGHT Setting the boom at the lowest labeled height (if specified) which provides uniform coverage reduces the exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind. For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce. WIND Drift potential increases at wind speeds ofless than 3 mph (due to inveraionpotential) or more than 10 mph. However, many factora, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDmONS. Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how they atJecI spray drift.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY When making Ipplications in hot and dry conditions, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.

TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing. which causes small suspended droplets to remain close to the ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud. Temperature inversions are cbaracterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun seta and often continue iDle the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversiona can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upWatd and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.

SHIELDED SPRAYERS Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce tbe effects of wind. However, it is the responaibility of the applicator to verify that the sbields are preventing drift and not interfering with uniform deposition of the product

AIR ASSISTED GROUND FIELD CROP SPRAYERS Air assisted field crop sprayers carry droplets to the target via a downward directed air streatn. Some may reduce the potential for drift, but if a sprayer is unsuitable for the application and/or set up improperly, high drift potential can result It is the responaibility of tile applicator to determine that a sprayer is suitable for the intended application, is configured properly, and that drift is not occurring. Note: Air assisted field sprayers can atJect product performance by affecting spray coverage and canopy penetration. Consult the application equipment section of this label to determine if use of an air assisted sprayer is recommended.

RESISTANCE When herbicidea that aftect the SatDC biological site of action are used repeatedly over several years to control the same weed species in the same field, naturally-occurring resistant bio!ypeS may sUJvive a correctly applied herbicide treatment, propagate. and become dominant in that field. Adequate control of these resistant weed biotypes cannot be expected.lfwecd control is WlS&tisfactory, it may be necessary to retreat the problem area using a product affecting a different site of action.

To better manage herbicide resistance through delaying the proliferation and posaible dominance ofberbicide resistant weed biotypes, it may be necessary to change cultural practices within and between crop seasons such as using a combination ofu11age. nmatment, tank-mix partnera andlor sequentia1 herbicide applications that have a different site of action. Do not let weed escapes go to seed. If applicable, _ Weeds Cootrolled section oflabel for additional information on managing herbicide ..a­weed biotypea.

It is advisable to keep ICCUI'Ilte records of pesticides applied to individual fields to help obtain information on the spread and disperaal of resistant biotypes. ConsuII your agricultural dealer, consultant, applicator, and/or appropriate . state agricultural extension service representative for specific alternative cultural practices or herbicide recommendations available in your area.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS· ALL STATES I. Because most crops are bighly sensitive to DuPont™

CANOPY XL®, all dim:t or indirect contact (such IS

spray drift) to crops or to land scbeduled to be planted to crops other than soybeans should be avoided.

2. Soybean stunting may occur if excessive rainfall occurs after application but before soybeans emerge. Injury is more prevalent onder poor drainage or compacted conditions or when soil is saturated for long periods of time. Soybeans rapidly outgrow stunting once favorable growing conditions return.

3.

4.

S.

Do not apply CANOPY XL® if there are visible signs of cracking due to soybean emergence, or serious crop injury may result

Seedling disease, nemaJodes, cold weather, deep plantinC (more than 2"). excessive moisture, bigh salt conctn­llalion, or drought may weaken soybean seedlinCS and increase the possibility of crop injury.

Do not apply 10 land IhIl bas been or will be treated with DuPont"" ALLY®, DuPont"" OLEAN®, or DuPont1'll FlNESSB® berbicide in Nebraska and Kanaas without observing the rotationa1 crop intervals for those prodw:ts.

6. Do not apply or drain or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants, or on areas where their roots may extend, or in locations where the chemical may be waahed or moved into contact with their roots, or injury to desirable trees and plants may occur

7. Do not use on lawns, walka, driveways, tennis courts or similar areas. Prevent drift of spray to desirable plants. Do not contaminate any body of water. Keep ftom contact with fertiJizen, insecticides, fungicides and seeds during storage.

8. Thoroughly clean CANOPY XL® from application equipment immediately after use and prior 10 apraying crops otber than soybeans. Failure to remove even small amounts of CANOPY XL® from application equipment may result in injury 10 subsequently sprayed crops.

9. Do not tank mix CANOPY XL® with olJlDophospbate insecticides. Do not apply CANOPY XL® within 14 days before or after an application of an olJlDophospbate insecticide, as severe crop injury may occur.
