If ph is less than 6 OR total rainfall (including irrigation) is less than 16 inches, then the rotation interval is 18 months. Note: Goldky herbicide is degraded primarily by microbial activity. Extreme drought and soil ph conditions and atypical soil types may require a bioassay to be conducted before planting a rotational crop. ee product label for specific details.

3 Goldky Herbicide ross-spectrum ontrol, Flexibility and Value Tough-to-control grasses like wild oats and foxtails can quickly damage spring wheat stands and yields, and increase losses to dockage.

Wide-spectrum control of difficult broadleaf weeds, such as kochia, wild mustard, pigweed, lambsquarters, wild buckwheat and Russian thistle, for cleaner fields and reduced dockage at harvest. Rotational flexibility for the next growing season to barley, canola, soybeans, field corn, peas, lentils, flax, potatoes, sugarbeets or sunflowers. rop rotation intervals may vary by geography. rop safety to spring wheat, winter wheat and durum. Wide application window for greater flexibility in managing resources apply from three-leaf to jointing stage.

Goldky also delivers outstanding control of multiple broadleaf weeds compared with industry standards (see hart 3). Application Rates and Timing Apply 1 pint of Goldky per acre to actively growing wheat (including spring, winter and durum) or triticale from the three-leaf to jointing stage. Treat after the majority of weeds have emerged. Best results are obtained when application is made to weeds that are actively growing. Applications of Goldky are rainfast within four hours after application. Warm, moist growing conditions promote active weed growth and enhance the activity of Goldky by maximizing foliar uptake. old or drought conditions may inhibit uptake and affect performance. Use a sufficient spray volume to provide thorough coverage and a uniform spray pattern, applying 10 gallons or more per acre for best results. urfactants Apply with a high-quality nonionic surfactant at a rate of 0.25 to 0.5 percent v/v (1 to 2 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution). Ammonium sulfate also is recommended at a rate of 1.5 pounds per acre, or urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) at 1 to 2 quarts per acre. Tank Mixtures Goldky herbicide may be applied in tank-mix combination with labeled rates of other products registered for postemergence application in wheat. ee product label for tank-mixing information and precautions. When Goldky is tank-mixed with emulsifiable concentrate (E) formulations such as MPA ester or 2,4-D ester, do not use a surfactant.

6 What People are saying About Goldky Herbicide hris Binstock outhwest Grain Dickinson, N.D. In addition to the great control of kochia and wild buckwheat in spring wheat, Goldky tank-mixed with 2,4-D ester has given us excellent results against not only Persian darnel which is becoming one of the tougher weeds for us to control but volunteer canola, as well. The crop rotational flexibility Goldky offers is perfect for us. Bryce Weber North entral Farmers Elevator trasburg, N.D. Goldky works great on our spring wheat acres at controlling wild buckwheat which is challenging year after year as well as cheat grass, which is becoming a bigger problem for us. One customer in particular had severe problems with cheat grass, and an application of Goldky cleaned up the field, and kept it clean for the rest of the year. Ken arlstrom, manager Wilbur-Ellis Genesee, Idaho Resistant Italian ryegrass and wild oats have been cropping up in our wheat fields, and the products we ve used in the past aren t as effective as they once were. The two modes of action in Goldky are helping us to control weeds that we have struggled to control with other herbicides. Goldky has been a very effective product for us, and its tank-mix flexibility allows us to use other labeled tank-mix herbicides to broaden the spectrum of weeds it controls. Marsha VanLaere olumbia Grain Larimore, N.D. Goldky has brought a lot of simplicity to our weed control program. It s easy to measure, is easy to tank-mix and has multiple modes of action to help battle resistance. Its crop rotation flexibility takes out a lot of the guesswork about whether certain rotational crops can be planted after wheat.
