Crop and/or Non-Crop Registrations Flax, canola, soybeans, sugar beets, sunflowers, tobacco, forage legumes (alfalfa, red clover and bird's-foot trefoil), cabbage, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, cucumber, onions, potatoes, rutabagas, tomatoes, lowbush and highbush blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, non-grassy ornamental plants, poplars, shrubs, trees, apples, apricots, cherries, cranberries, peaches, pears and plums, forest and ornamental nurseries.
Sensitive Weeds Annual grass species, volunteer corn, wheat, barley and quack grass
Uptake and Translocation Absorbed primarily by leaves. Translocated to roots and rhizomes.
Basis of Selectivity Metabolism by tolerant species.
Application Methods Postemergence. Apply when grasses are actively growing, and annual grasses are in the 2- to 5-leaf stage and quack grass is in the 3- to 5-leaf stage.
Residual Activity Essentially none.
Unique Characteristics Preplant tillage to break up rhizomes will improve control of quack grass. Except as noted on the label, apply broadleaf herbicides separately at least 3 days after fluazifop-p-butyl. Do not cultivate for 5 days after applying fluazifop-p-butyl. When plants are stressed (lack of moisture, excessive humidity, low temperature and/or very low relative humidity), fluazifop-p-butyl is less effective. Regrowth by tillering may occur if application is made under any of the above conditions. Since there is no residual activity, a new flush of weeds may emerge after the first flush has been controlled.
