Trade Advice:
General
Instructions: HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE is a water soluble liquid product with non-selective herbicidal
activity against broadleaf weeds.
HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE will control emerged weeds only, and provides no residual
control although certain plant back periods should be observed.
HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE is absorbed by plant foliage and accumulates to toxic levels in
regions of growth and reproduction, upsetting the ability of plants to balance the synthesis and
use of nutrients. Visible effects are a gradual yellowing and wilting of the plants which advances
to complete browning of above ground level growth and deterioration of root systems. Effects
may not be apparent for 7-10 days or even up to 21 days under cold or cloudy conditions.Page 2
DO NOT treat weeds under poor growing or dormant conditions such as occur in drought,
water-logging, disease, insect damage, following frost, weeds heavily covered with dust or silt.
Reduced results may also occur if weeds are under stress from previous herbicide applications.
Rainfall occurring up to 6 hours after applications may reduce effectiveness.
DO NOT spray if strong wind prevail.
CROP ESTABLISHMENT
HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE is recommended as a herbicide additive to Glyphosate 450 for
control of emerged weeds prior to crop establishment. When HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE
is applied prior to crop establishment, certain Plant Back Periods should be observed to ensure
that the herbicide has degraded sufficiently to allow safe sowing of the intended crop. This
process is largely influenced by moisture, temperature and certain soil characteristics and may
be delayed particularly when conditions are cold and dry. Refer to the Plant Back Period table
for specific information. In seasons of heavy weed growth, or where the following conditions
apply it may be necessary to further delay sowing until a suitable seedbed can be formed.
Conditions which can delay crop germination and seedling development include:
Heavy green or decaying weed growth incorporated into the soil;
Soil compaction or crusting;
Cold and wet soils;
Deep seeding;
Prior use of residual or pre-emergent herbicides.
To minimise these effects it is suggested that:
Weed bulk be reduced by grazing and cultivating to leave trash on the surface to dry out;
A friable seedbed be produced by cultivation, where necessary;
The use of pre-emergent herbicides to be avoided if they might contribute to reduced
germination;
A correct seedling depth to be used.
The preferred alternative is to spray early to control any weeds in their less advanced stages
and ensure the seedbed is in a suitable condition for early sowing when soil temperatures are
not excessively cold.
APPLICATION
Boom Equipment
Application of Halley 2,4-D IPA 300 Herbicide/Glyphosate mixtures in spray volumes of 25-
I00L/ha is recommended.
When Chlorsulfuron or Metsulfuron are included in the mixture a minimum spray volume of
30L/ha is recommended. When Simazine is included in the mixture a minimum spray volume of
100L/ha is recommended. Flat fan nozzle equipment is recommended using pressures in the
range 240-280kPa. Boom height must be set to ensure double overlap of nozzle patterns at the
top of the weed canopy.
Aerial Equipment
Application of Halley 2,4-D IP A 300 Herbicide/Glyphosate mixtures using either Micronair or
boom equipment should occur in a minimum spray volume of 15L/ha. Swath width should be
15-17 metres.
Application under hot conditions: High temperatures and/or low relative humidity cause
excessive evaporation of spray droplets which may reduce results. When temperatures reach
25°C increase water volume to 30L/ha.
DO NOT apply by aircraft when temperature is above 35°C.
DO NOT use in intensive horticultural cropping areas.
Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear after each day of spraying to remove
herbicide residues.Page 3
EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE
Spray solutions of Halley 2,4-D IPA 300 Herbicide and Glyphosate should be mixed, stored and
applied only in stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper, fibreglass, plastic-lined containers. Do
not mix, store or apply spray solutions in galvanised steel or unlined steel (except stainless
steel) containers or spray tanks. Halley 2,4-D IPA 300 Herbicide/Glyphosate spray solutions may
react with such containers and tanks to produce hydrogen gas which may form a highly
combustible gas mixture that can flash or explode if ignited by open flame, spark, welder's
torch, lighted cigarette or other ignition source.
Thoroughly clean all equipment after use either by using hot soapy water or 1 % solution of
ammonia followed by several clean water rinses or use Spraymate Tank & Equipment Cleaner.
If using Sulfonylurea herbicides (Chlorsulfuron or Metsulfuron), it is very important to follow
decontamination procedures detailed on those product labels.
COMPATIBILITY
This product may be mixed in the spray tank with the following active ingredients:
Herbicides - Atrazine; Chlorsulfuron; Dicamba; Glyphosate; Glyphosate/ 2,4-D IPA;
Methabenzthiazuron; Metsulfuron Methyl; Paraquat; Paraquat/Diquat; Simazine.
Insecticides - Chlorpyrifos 500EC; Dimethoate; Omethoate; Phosmet.
Note:
1. Information on compatibility is understood to be correct at the time of publication, however
products may vary from time to time, therefore a small scale compatibility test should be
carried out before mixing in the spray tank.
2. Observe any mixing sequence instructions for tank mix products.
USE OF SURFACTANTS
DO NOT add a surfactant unless the product is to be used in conservation tillage situations and
tank mixed with Glyphosate 450. In this situation always add a non-ionic surfactant at its
labelled rate.
If tank mixing with an insecticide (see compatibility below) always add the acidifying surfactant
Acidowet 7001
DO NOT use Acidowet 700 if tank mixes include sulfonylureas (eg Chlorsulfuron or
Metsulfuron).
DO NOT mix with spraying oils or any other chemicals except as directed on the label.
TANK MIXTURES
This product is designed to be mixed with Glyphosate 450. The product may also be mixed with
the following agricultural chemicals provided the directions for use for the tank mix products
are followed.
Herbicides
Chlorsulfuron - for the control of a wide range of broadleaf weeds and grasses.
Metsulfuron - For improved knockdown control of Amsinckia (Yellow burrweed), Chickpeas,
Volunteer Chickpeas, Chickweed, Common Sowthistle, Cut-Leaf Mignonette, Dead Nettle, Faba

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure that the spray tank has been thoroughly cleaned.
1. Half fill the spray tank with clean water, add the required amount of product and begin
agitation. Do not use mechanical agitators as these may cause excessive foaming when
herbicides are added.Page 4
2. If an acidifying surfactant is to be added, add to the tank through the top mesh screen.
3. Add the companion herbicide or insecticide to the tank and mix thoroughly.
4. Add Halley 2,4-D IPA 300 Herbicide and mix thoroughly.
5. Add Glyphosate 450 and the remaining water.
6. If a non-ionic surfactant is to be added, add near the end to prevent excessive foaming.
7. Maintain agitation during spraying and use the tank mix as soon as possible.
Resistance Resistance Warning
Warning: GROUP 4 HERBICIDE
HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE is a member of the Phenoxy group of herbicides. The product
has the Disruptors of plant cell growth mode of action. For weed resistance management
HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE is a Group 4 herbicide. Some naturally-occurring weed
biotypes resistant to HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE and other Group 4 herbicides may exist
through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can
eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These
resistant weeds will not be controlled by HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE or other Group 4
herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, HALLEY
INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISE (AUSTRALIA) PTY LTD accepts no liability for any losses that may
result from the failure of HALLEY 2,4-D IPA 300 HERBICIDE to control resistant weeds.
Precautions: RE-ENTRY PERIOD
DO NOT hand harvest sugar cane for at least 1 day after application.
If re-entering treated areas before the spray has dried, workers should wear overalls, elbow-
length gloves and water-resistant footwear. Clothing must be laundered after each day's use.
