galls, then control is justified. Apply malathion control on honey locust pod gall, 

 vein pocket gall, or pin oak and hackberry galls. Apply when the new leaves begin 

 to emerge in the spring. Malathion applied for maple bladder gall at the same time 

 will give control, but a miticide such as dicofol (Kelthane) is more effective. When 

 galls can be observed on the leaves, it is too late for chemical control.

HERBICIDE USAGE RESTRICTIONS 



The new Federal Environmental Pesticide Act (FEPCA) requires that pesticides be used 

 only according to the label. Misuses are subject to penalty, so follow the use pre- 

 cautions and restrictions on the label carefully. Tank-mix combinations of herbi- 

 cides are not officially cleared until the manufacturers meet certain EPA regulations 

 and procedures. Do not use tank-mix combinations unless they are officially cleared. 

 Be sure to observe the restrictions on all components when using combinations. 



Soybeans . Soybean forage is not normally fed or grazed, however, there are restric- 

 tions on some herbicides as to timing and how the soybeans can be used. Ramrod (pro- 

 pachlor) : Seed soybeans only. Do not use soybean seed for food, feed or oil pur- 

 poses. Do not graze or feed soybean forage from treated areas. Maloran, Bromex 

 (chlorbromuron) : Do not use forage for feed within 60 days . Do not graze treated 

 areas with livestock. Pre for an , Soyex (f luorodifen) : Do not use treated plants for 

 feed or forage within 60 days. Tenoran , Nqrex (chlorbromuron) : Do not apply within 

 90 days of harvest. Do not graze treated fields with livestock. Preemerge , Sinox PE 

 (dinoseb) directed-postemergence treatment: Do not graze or feed treated soybeans 

 within three weeks. Butyrac 175 , Butoxone SB (2,4-DB): Do not harvest beans within 

 60 days. Paraquat harvest-aid treatment: Remove livestock from treated fields at 

 least 30 days before slaughter. 



Cora . Lasso (alachlor) : Do not harvest immature corn or feed to cattle within 

 twelve weeks of treatment. AAtrex (atrazine) : Do not graze treated areas or feed 

 treated forage to livestock for 21 days. 



Sorghum . Herbicides cleared for use on grain sorghum are not always cleared on 

 forage sorghum (silage or sweet sorghum) . Sorghum- sudangrass hybrids and sudan- 

 grass are not considered the same as forage sorghums. Ramrod (propachlor) : Do 

 not graze or feed sorghum forage or silage from treated fields to dairy animals. 

 AAtrex (atrazine) grain sorghum, forage sorghum, or sorghum- sudangrass hybrids: 

 Do not graze or feed forage from treated areas for 21 days. 2,4-D grain sorghum, 

 forage sorghum, and sudangrass: Do not let dairy animals graze for 7 days. Banvel 

 (dicamba) grain and forage sorghum: Do not graze treated areas or feed forage or 

 silage before mature grain stage. Milogard (propazine) grain and forage sorghum: 

 There are no feeding or grazing restrictions. Herban 2LA. or 2 1P (norea-plus- 

 atrazine or propazine) : Do not graze or feed forage within 90~crays after treatment. 



Small grain . 2,4-D : Do not graze or feed forage from treated fields within two 

 weeks. Do not use straw for livestock feed, if used after the soft-dough stage 

 for harvest aid. Banvel (dicamba) : Do not graze or harvest for dairy feed prior 

 to crop maturity. 



Pasture . Normally 2,4-D or 2,4,5-T are used on pasture. A mixture of the two ma- 

 terials is often sold as brush killer. Banvel is sometimes used on perennial weeds. 

 2,4-D : Do not let dairy animals graze for 7 days after treatment. 2,4,5-T: Do not 

 let dairy animals graze for six weeks, or let slaughter meat animals graze within
