Precautions

Apply in the spring when the red clover is in the 1st-3rd trifoliate stage and when the winter wheat provides a protective canopy over the clover.
Do NOT use on rye.
Apply in not less than 200 L/ha water (80 L/ac).
Do NOT apply if clover is under stress, and avoid overlaps as injury to the red clover may result.

Precautions

Apply in the spring when crop growth commences until early shot blade stage.
Treat when the legumes are in an early stage of development and covered by a canopy of weeds and crop.
Apply in 180-240 L/ha water (72-96 L/ac).
