SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Operator protection
Engineering control of operator exposure must be used where reasonably practicable in addition to the following personal protective
equipment:
WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING (COVERALLS), SUITABLE PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND FACE
PROTECTION (FACESHIELD) when handling the concentrate.
WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE GLOVES when handling contaminated surfaces.
However, engineering controls may replace personal protective equipment if a COSHH
assessment shows they provide an equal or higher standard of protection.
WHEN USING DO NOT EAT, DRINK OR SMOKE.
DO NOT BREATHE SPRAY.
WASH CONCENTRATE from skin or eyes immediately
WASH HANDS AND EXPOSED skin before eating, and after work.
WASH ALL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING after use.
IF YOU FEEL UNWELL, seek medical advice (show the label where possible).
Environmental protection
Do not contaminate water with the product or its container. Do not clean application equipment near surface water. Avoid
contamination via drains from farmyards and roads.
RISK TO NON-TARGET INSECTS OR ARTHROPODS. Avoid spraying within 5 m of the field boundary to reduce effects on
non-target insects or other arthropods.
Extreme care must be taken to avoid spray drift on to non-crop plants outside of the target area.
Storage and disposal
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
KEEP AWAY FROM FOOD, DRINK AND ANIMAL FEEDINGSTUFFS.
KEEP IN ORIGINAL CONTAINER, tightly closed, in a safe place.
KEEP IN A COOL, WELL VENTILATED PLACE.
RINSE CONTAINER THOROUGHLY by using an integrated pressure rinsing device or manually rinse three times. Add washings
to sprayer at time of filling and dispose of safely.
DO NOT RE-USE CONTAINER for any purpose.
PROTECT FROM FROST
SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully
in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.
RESTRICTIONS OR WARNINGS
Apply before weeds have emerged.
Seeds must be well covered with soil.
Do not spray in the vicinity of crops which are ready to harvest. Avoid spray drift, especially to very sensitive crops such as flax,
poppy seeds, cereals (during or before flowering), cucumber, tomatoes, melons and gherkins. Avoid overlapping of spray swaths.
The variety of nursery plants and plants for public gardens is extensive and the sensitivity of the product can vary greatly, even
within the same species. It is therefore recommended that for the first use of this product, a small scale test is carried out according
to the prevailing conditions at the farm or nursery where it will be used.
Application of the product to Anemone and Ranunculus is not advisable.
RESISTANCE
Strains of some annual grasses, e.g. black-grass, wild-oats, and Italian rye-grass, have developed resistance to herbicides which
may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced
by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop adviser or product
manufacturer.
SOILS
ALIACINE 400 EC can be used on all soils, except on sandy soils with less than 1% organic matter and on sandy open textured
soils due to the risk of wash out to the roots of the crops. Seedbeds should be fine and moist for best results. Do not disturb the soil
after application of ALIACINE 400 EC.
USES
ALIACINE 400 EC is a herbicide which is absorbed by the subterranean parts of the weeds. It is therefore important to apply the
product to a weed free soil. Newly emerging weeds will also be controlled if they belong to the group of sensitive species. ALIACINE
400 EC is effective against a number of annual weeds
Note that Composites (groundsel, Smooth sow-thistle, mayweed and others) and cleavers are resistant. Perennial weeds are not
controlled.
APPLICATION
Preferably apply on moist soil and not too high temperatures, i.e. ideally in autumn or spring. Under ideal circumstances, there should be some
light rain afterwards. Do not apply when heavy rainfall is predicted shortly after the application. Drought after the application can make the
treatment less effective. Spraying under windy conditions could lead to uneven distribution over the field and drift to adjacent crops and should
therefore be avoided.
Following Crops
It is advised to cultivate treated land to a depth of 15 cm before planting succeeding crops.
Mixing and Spraying
For all crops, Aliacine 400 EC should be applied using a medium quality spray (BCPC classification) and a water volume as mentioned in the
section “crop specific information”.
Add the required quantity of ALIACINE 400 EC to a half-filled spray tank with continuous agitation, and then add the remaining volume of water,
maintaining agitation. Spray immediately after mixing and continue agitation until spraying is completed.
Wash out the sprayer thoroughly with water immediately after use. Finally wash out with water and drain.
CROP-SPECIFIC INFORMATION:
Lettuce, Endive, radicchio
Apply before planting and/or 1-2 weeks after planting out.
Rate of Use: 1.9 litres/ha, maximum total dose 3.8 litres product/ha/crop. Apply with an interval of 1-2 weeks (maximum 2 applications).
Spray volume: 500 L/ha.
Note: slight damage to the first leaves may occur when applied after transplanting. This does not affect subsequent leaves or the overall yield. Do
not apply to lamb’s lettuce.
Bulb onions, salad onions and shallots (spring and overwintered), including drilled and planted from sets oR transplants
Apply using a conventional high dose system or as a low dose system:
Conventional (high dose) system: Apply pre-emergence and/or post-emergence of the crop, up to the 4 leaf stage.
Spray volume: 450 L/ha
Rate of Use: 1.8 litres/ha, 1-3 applications with an interval of 5-10 days.
Note: application between emergence and the 1 leaf stage may cause some crop damage.
Low dose system: Apply from emergence of the crop, up to the 4 leaf stage.
Rate of Use: 0.5-1 L/ha, 1-6 applications with an interval of 5-10 days. The maximum total dose must not exceed 6 L/ha.
Spray volume: 300 L/ha.
Applications of chlorpropham may cause taint in pickling onions. Consult processor before using on crops for processing.
Ornamental plant production (for nursery and public gardens)
Crop specific information is provided below.
Nursery trees and woody plants
Rate of Use: 2 litres/ha. 1-2 applications with an interval of 1-2 weeks.
Spray volume: 500-800 litres/ha.
Spray between the rows only.
Seed beds: pre-emergence in Aesculus, Castanea, Corylus, Fagus and Quercus.
Seed beds: (rooted for one year) e.g. Abies, Picea, Pinus mugo, Thuja and Tsuga; spray over the crop in November (December).
Winter cuttings: immediately after cutting but before sprouting (approx. mid-March).
Various annual and perennial nursery crops:
The product may be applied between all deciduous and evergreen crops in November-December. Use a protective cover (spray hood).
For the uses listed, the crop must remain rooted at least until the spring. The product may be applied between rooted crops in February-March.
However, it should not come into contact with the crop. Use of a protective cover is therefore recommended
Grafted roses: Spray on weed-free soil in November-December.
Cleaning Application Equipment
All application equipment must be thoroughly cleaned prior to storage or use on another crop. After using ALIACINE 400 EC, empty the tank
completely and drain the whole system. Thoroughly wash the inside of the tank with a pressure hose. Quarter fill the tank with clean water and
circulate through the pump, line, hoses and nozzles, then drain. Quarter fill the tank again, add a suitable detergent and circulate through the
system for at least 15 minutes. Drain, remove filters and nozzles and clean separately. Rinse the inside of the tank thoroughly using a pressure
hose and flush system with clean water.
