DuPont Authentication Velpar H - 65396 - Manual (Page 22)

USE PRECAUTIONS
PASTURE / RANGELAND
• Injury to or loss of desirable trees or other plants may result if
DuPont™ VELPAR® L is applied or if equipment is drained
or flushed on or near desirable trees or other plants, on areas
where their roots may extend, or in locations where the
chemical may be washed or moved into contact with their
roots.
• Poor weed and brush control may result from the following:
–Use on poorly drained sites.
–Applications made when the soil is saturated with water and
rain is imminent within 24 hours.
–Applications to soils high in organic matter (greater
than 5%).
• Following mechanical cutting or clearing, allow stumps and
injured trees sufficient time to adequately resprout before
applying VELPAR® L.
• Do not use VELPAR® L on frozen soils.
• Weed and brush control results depend on sufficient moisture
to activate VELPAR® L.
• When VELPAR® L is applied as a basal soil treatment, there
is no restriction on grazing by domestic animals nor on
cutting surrounding vegetation for forage or hay.
• For broadcast pasture applications of VELPAR® L, do not cut
treated vegetation for forage or hay nor graze domestic
animals on treated areas for 60 days.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
VELPAR® L is recommended for general weed and brush
control as follows: uncultivated nonagricultural areas (such as,
airports, highway, railroad and utility right-of way, sewage
disposal areas); uncultivated agricultural areas (non-crop
producing, which includes: farmyards, fuel storage areas, fence
rows, barrier strips); industrial sites (outdoor, such as,
lumberyards, pipeline and tank farms).
VELPAR® L is recommended for control of many annual,
biennial, and perennial weeds in noncrop, industrial sites.
APPLICATION TIMING
Apply VELPAR® L as a preemergence or postemergence spray
when weeds are actively germinating or growing.
WEEDS CONTROLLED - USE RATE
VELPAR® L effectively controls the following weeds when
applied at the use rates shown in industrial sites. When applied
at lower rates, VELPAR® L provides short-term control of the
weeds listed; when applied at higher rates, weed control is
increased and extended. Use lower rate on coarse textured soils
(sand to sandy loam). Use the higher rate on fine textured soils
(clay loam to clay) and on soils high in organic matter.
