Assure II

The Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) recently announced the approval of a minor use label expansion registration for ASSURE II herbicide for control or suppression of labelled weeds CG 11-09 (pome fruit), CG 12-09 (stone fruit), and CG 13-07F (small fruits climbing vines). ASSURE II Herbicide was already labeled for management of weeds on a wide range of crops in Canada. These minor use proposals were submitted by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Pest Management Centre (AAFC-PMC) as a result of minor use priorities established by growers and extension personnel.

This product contains an active ingredient and aromatic petroleum distillates, which are toxic to aquatic organisms and non-target terrestrial plants. Observe buffer zones specified under Directions for Use. To reduce runoff from treated areas into aquatic habitats, avoid application to areas with a moderate to steep slope, compacted soil, or clay. Avoid application when heavy rain is forecast. Contamination of aquatic areas as a result of runoff may be reduced by including a vegetative filter strip between the treated area and the edge of the water body. |READ MORE
