Technical Information

Double Up B+D is formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate of octanoic acid ester of bromoxynil containing the equivalent of 2 pounds of bromoxynil per gallon and 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid containing the equivalent of 1.9 pounds per gallon. Double Up B+D is a selective post-emergence herbicide for control of important listed broadleaf weeds infesting small grains wheat, barley, oats, rye and triticale. Optimum weed control is obtained when Double Up B+D is applied to actively growing weed seedlings. Double Up B+D contains a contact herbicide and a systemic herbicide, therefore thorough coverage of the listed weed seedlings is essential for optimum control. Double Up B+D has little residual activity. Therefore subsequent flushes of listed weeds will not be controlled by the initial treatment. Generally crops that form a good canopy will help shade subsequent weed flushes. However, certain crops or short-straw varieties, for example Yaccora Rojo wheat, may not develop the crop canopy fast enough to shade the subsequent flushes of weeds. Occasional transitory leaf burn may occur. The temporary leaf burn is similar to that seen with liquid fertilizer. Recovery of the crop is generally rapid with no lasting effect. Frequency and amount of leaf burn may be greater when crops are stressed by abrasive winds, cool to cold evening temperatures or mechanical injury, such as that caused by hail, sleet or insect feeding. To reduce the potential for temporary leaf burn, applications should be made to dry foliage in the specified spray volumes per acre when weather conditions are not extreme.
