Submerging the treated plants followingtreatment may result in the spray being washed fromthe plant surface, thus reducing effectiveness. Do notapply this product within the 0.5 km of potable waterintake in flowing water (e.g. river or stream) or within0.5 km of a potable water intake in a standing bodyof water such as lake, pond or reservoir. Applicationto moving bodies of water should be made whiletravelling upstream wherever possible to preventconcentration of this herbicide in water. When makingbankside applications, do not overspray more than0.5 m into open water. Avoid spraying across movingbodies of water where weeds do not exist. DO NOTADD EXTRA SURFACTANT/WETTER, UNLESS IT ISAPPROVED IN AQUATIC SITUATIONS. When sprayingfloating weeds use a low volume low pressure boomspray, CDA or sprinkler sprayer. Do not submergeweeds when spraying as this may wash herbicideoff the leaves.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS<strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> is a non-selective herbicide, which is effective against a wide range of annualand perennial broadleaf weeds and grasses. It is translocated throughout the plant where it kills bothfoliage and roots.Ideally the best time to use the product is when target species are in a state of active growth, moderateclimatic conditions are present and plants are free of disease and dirt cover. The effects of the herbicidemay not be visible for 3 - 7 days for annual weeds or 2 - 3 weeks for perennial weeds depending onwater quality, weather conditions, weed species and rate used.While cool and cloudy conditions can sometimes delay the appearance of chemical activity, it cangenerally be expected that symptoms of chemical effect will appear 2 - 7 days after spraying annualspecies, and 2 - 3 weeks after spraying perennial species. The symptoms are demonstrated by ayellowing and accompanying wilting, progressing to a brownout.SPRAY PREPARATION1. Make sure the spray tank is clean and residues from previous spray usage have been removed.2. Fill the spray tank 1/2 to 3/4 full with clean water. Where possible avoid turbid water or hard watercontaining calcium salts, as this may reduce weed control.3. Where ammonium sulphate is recommended, wash 2% V/V (2 L/100 L spray solution) through a topmesh screen into the tank and mix thoroughly.4. Add the appropriate amount of <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> as per the Direction for Use tables.5. Add surfactant (if required). Mix well keeping the filling hose below surface to avoid foaming.6. Add water to fill vat.7. Remove hose from tank as soon as full to prevent back siphoning.DO NOT use mechanical agitators, as they cause excessive foaming.DO NOT add non-approved herbicides and insecticides.Use ONLY plastic, plastic lined, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, brass or fibreglass tanks. Galvanisedsteel or unlined steel spray tanks can react with the product to produce hydrogen, which can form acombustible gas mixture, which can be flashed by ignition sources.CROP ESTABLISHMENT<strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> is recommended for the control of emerged weeds prior to cropestablishment. Suitable cultivation and/or sowing procedures are required to provide seedbed conditionsfavourable for crop germination and development.Early spraying to control young weeds will favour preparation of suitable seedbeds.On friable soils, where there is only a light cover of young weeds, sowing may proceed 1 day afterspraying. In situations of heavy weed growth, sowing should be delayed until weed decay and soilconditions allow formation of a suitable seedbed.Incorporation of green or decaying vegetation and roots into seedbeds by cultivation/sowing may causeretarded crop emergence especially in cold and/or wet conditions. Vegetation may be reduced bygrazing and/or cultivation but trash should be left on the surface. Avoid use of pre-emergence herbicideswhere <strong>label</strong> directions advise a risk of retarded crop emergence, and in marginal seedbed conditionspay particular attention to correct seeding depth.SurfactantThe addition of surfactant may improve weed control where water rates are high or product rates low.Suggested surfactant rates at 200 mL/100 L of 1000 g/L non-ionic surfactant or 250 - 500 mL of 700g/L surfactant. Do not add spraying oils, agricultural chemicals or other materials except as directed onthe <strong>label</strong>.Organosilicone PenetrantIn certain situations such as for the control of brush and woody weeds (as indicated in the Directions forUse) weed control may be enhanced by the addition of an organosilicone penetrant at its <strong>label</strong> rate.Rainfall EffectsHeavy rainfall within 2 hours of spraying can mean that the chemical may be washed off the plant, withthe result that the herbicide may not be totally effective. Re-spraying may be needed. Normal rainfallup to 6 hours after application may reduce effectiveness. Adequate results may not be achieved if theproduct is applied when weeds are stressed by conditions such as drought, water logging or frost.Soil PersistenceThe product is not persistent in soils and is rapidly broken down by microbes present in the soil, aswell as by hydrolysis caused by freestanding moisture or moisture that may be present in soil particles.Should residual activity be needed refer to the “Compatibility” section of this <strong>label</strong>.RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING<strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> is a member of the glycine group of GROUP M HERBICIDEherbicides. <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> has the inhibitor of EPSPsynthase mode of action. For weed resistance management <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> is a group “M”herbicide.Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> and other inhibitorsof EPSP synthase herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population.The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used26 27
epeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> or other inhibitorsof EPSP synthase herbicides.Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Crop</strong> <strong>Protection</strong> Pty Ltdaccepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> to controlresistant weeds. DO NOT however assume resistance without first reviewing the method of application,timing, water quality and weather conditions.APPLICATION EQUIPMENTThe following types of equipment may be used for applying the product: knapsack, wiper, handgun,aerial, boom.For Knapsack and Handgun EquipmentMaximum efficiency can be achieved by using D6 spray plate and applying at a pressure of 400 - 700kPa. As the product is translocated through contact points on the plant, good coverage and uniformwetting is needed to maximise uptake by the plant. The dilution rate is given as volume per litre. Adjustequipment to ensure even spray pattern.For Boom EquipmentMaximum efficiency can be achieved by using fan nozzles at a pressure of 240 - 280 kPa. Boom heightshould be adjusted to ensure double overlap of nozzle patterns at the top of the weed canopy. Watervolumes of 75 to 200 L of clean water per hectare are recommended. When using rates of 500 mL to1.5 L/ha, spray volumes in the range of 25 - 100 L/ha are preferred.For Aerial EquipmentFor Micronair and boom equipment a droplet size of 250 - 350 micron diameter is recommended in aminimum spray volume of 20 L/ha. A swath width in the range of 15 - 17 m is most appropriate for thisform of spraying.When using this form of application give consideration to the fact that the product is highly nonselectiveand if desirable plants, trees, etc are in the vicinity of the area to be sprayed, they could beaffected by drift or targeted contact. This would limit usage via this technique to such situations as weedcontrol on fallows or pasture; control prior to establishment of crops or pasture.In pasture establishment situations, it may also be necessary to spray hilly terrain and gullies in bothdirections to ensure good spray coverage of grass and broadleaf weeds and to avoid spray shieldingeffects from trees.Hilly terrain: As spraying height may vary on hilly terrain, to maximise target contact, increase thewater volume to 30 - 80 L/ha and increase the droplet size to a minimum of 300 micron average size.can occur. It is important to increase water volume to at least 30 L/ha and average droplet size to 300micron if temperatures are in excess of 25°C.DO NOT SPRAY if temperature is above 30°C.For Wiper EquipmentWiper equipment such as ropewick applicators can be used to apply this product to weeds growing inoilseed crops, sugarcane, cotton, seed and pod vegetables, tree and vine crops, pasture and non-cropareas specified on this <strong>label</strong>. Weeds should be at least 15 cm above the crop or pasture. Operate wiperequipment a minimum of 10 cm above the crop or pasture. Speed of travel should be no greater than8 km/h. Best results are achieved at lower speeds and where two applications are made in oppositedirections (double pass).Where weeds are of variable height or occur in clumps or in dense infestations some plants may not becontacted by the herbicide solution and re-treatment may be necessary. Mix only enough solution forimmediate requirements. Do not store a mixed solution for more than a couple of days.Rate: Mix 800 mL <strong>FMC</strong> <strong>Glyder</strong> <strong>450</strong> <strong>Herbicide</strong> with 2 L clean water to prepare a 33% solution. Refer toWeeds Controlled section of <strong>label</strong> for specific recommendations.SPRAYER CLEAN UPAfter use, clean all spray equipment by thoroughly washing with clean water, or commercial sprayequipment cleaner, in order to prevent corrosion to tanks, lines and nozzles. Aircraft used in applicationshould be thoroughly washed with particular attention to wheels and landing gear.COMPATIBILITYIt has been established that a wide range of products may be tank mixed with glyphosate. The followingproducts may be mixed with glyphosate to broaden the spectrum of weeds controlled, add soil residualactivity, and improve performance. Refer to the Directions for Use section for detailed information ontank mix situations.Additives: Liquid ammonium sulphate (2 L/100 L) can be used to minimise antagonism when mixedwith flowable triazine herbicides; and help minimise the adverse effects of water quality problems, suchas high pH and mineral content, that are common in creek and bore water, that can be antagonistic withglyphosate herbicide.<strong>Herbicide</strong>s: Atrazine - flowable or granular (see Additives above - do not apply the tank mix for controlof Barnyard Grass (Echinochloa crus-galli)), dicamba, 2,4-D ester, chlorsulfuron, metsulfuron, Yield*,Stomp*, LVE MCPA, Goal CT*, simazine flowable.Goal CT: The addition of Goal CT <strong>Herbicide</strong> at 75 mL/ha to recommended rates of this productprior to planting wheat or barley will improve knockdown and increase the speed at which treatedNote: In high temperatures and dry conditions evaporation of droplets prior to reaching target species weeds develop visible symptoms of phytotoxicity.
