Always follow the instructions, precautions, and restrictions on the product label. 

 Do not graze livestock where you use dalapon. If you use only 2,4-D, do not graze 

 dairy animals for seven days after application. 



Tillage used by itself or in combination with herbicides also provides effective weed 

 control in small -grain stubble. Mowing will reduce weed growth. But weeds such as 

 foxtail can soon grow up again and can still produce heads with a considerable amount 

 of seed. 



Total weed control in all fields, fencerows, and noncrop areas of the farm is an im- 

 portant step in getting ahead of the weeds and making the weed-control job easier in 

 future years.
