Chemical Family	Amino acid.
Crop and/or Non-Crop Registrations	Preplant or postharvest with no cropping restrictions. Preharvest in wheat, barley, soybeans, canola, flax, lentils, peas and forages. Roundup Ready Crops - refer to Table 4-2. Directed applications in ginseng, cherries, grapes, apples, pears, plums and peaches, strawberries as wiper or spot treatment. Non-crop registrations: Brush control; turf renovation; chemical mowing; directed application in woody nursery stock, roadsides and shelterbelts. E-z-ject - Selective woody brush and tree control. Catena Herbicide, Forza Silvicultural Herbicide, Vantage Forestry Herbicide, Vision, Vision Max - Silvicultural site preparation, conifer release, forest tree plantings, forest tree nurseries.
Sensitive Weeds	Annual grasses; perennial weeds (quack grass, Canada thistle, sow-thistle, field bindweed, milkweed, cattails, nut sedge, poison-ivy etc.); brush (birch, alder, poplar, raspberry, willow and maple).
Uptake & Translocation	Absorbed through foliage and translocated throughout the plant.
Basis of Selectivity	Non-selective for agricultural crops. Conifers are tolerant at some stages but the basis has not been established.
Application Methods	Postemergence, usually at the bud to bloom stage of growth for most perennial weeds. Canada thistle should be at least in early flower bud, milkweed at flower bud, and bindweed at full flower. Quack grass can be treated in the spring or fall when it is actively growing with at least 3-4 new leaves on each emerged shoot; in the fall, remove crop refuse but do not till prior to application; fall or spring tillage prior to spring application may reduce control; wait at least 3-5 days after application before working the area; for maximum control it is advisable to till before the quack grass turns completely brown. Glyphosate can be applied with boom equipment, knapsack sprayers and high-volume equipment for agricultural and non-crop uses. Backpack mist blowers may be used for silvicultural site preparation and roadside brush control only. Aerial applications may be used for silvicultural site preparation and conifer release only. Can also be applied with selective equipment for non-crop areas, tree plantings, grapes and orchards (See "Special Methods of Weed Control" and "Selective Weed Control with Wiper Applicators"). Regardless of method of application, do not allow herbicide solution to contact green foliage or green bark of crop or other desirable plants; remove all suckers from the trunks of desirable trees before spraying.
Residual Activity	None: crops can be planted or seeded directly into treated areas following application. Other herbicides are required to control weeds emerging after the application.
Unique Characteristics	Rainfall within 6 hours after application or heavy frost within 24 hours may reduce control for 356 g/L formulations. 360 g/L formulations are rainfast as soon as 4 hours after application. Roundup Ultra, Roundup Weathermax and Touchdown Total are rainfast as soon as 1 hour after application.
