RESISTANCE WARNING For resistance management, CapaciT GG is a group code C2 herbicide. Any weed population may contain individuals naturally resistant to CapaciT GG and other Group Code C2 herbicides. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds may not be controlled by CapaciT GG or any other Group Code C2 herbicide. To delay herbicide resistance: Avoid exclusive repeated use of herbicides from the same herbicide Group Code. Alternate or tank mix with registered products from different herbicide Group Codes. Integrate other control methods (chemical, cultural, biological) into weed control programmes. For specific information on resistance management contact the registration holder of this product. The presence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use and, therefore, neither the Registration Holder nor the Distributor can accept responsibility for any losses as a result of CapaciT GG not controlling resistant weeds. Do not apply CapaciT GG alone in situations where weed resistance has been confirmed. Sub-standard application of CapaciT GG will lead to inferior weed control and may assist in development of herbicide resistance. It is of the utmost importance to inspect treated areas at regular intervals in order to identify the occurrence of herbicide-resistant weeds timeously. MODE OF ACTION CapaciT GG is a systemic soil herbicide, absorbed mainly by the roots, with ready translocation. It is a photosynthetic electron transport inhibitor at the photosystem II receptor site. DIRECTIONS FOR USE Use only as directed. Read all the instructions carefully before application. Although CapaciT GG may be applied at any time of the year, treatments only become effective once sufficient rainfall has leached the chemical into the root zone where it can be taken up by the target plant. It is therefore recommended to apply CapaciT GG just before, or at the beginning of the rainy season in order to obtain the best results. Susceptible species should die within 36 months after application, depending on the soil texture, species and effective rainfall. During this period, the treated plants should exhibit repeated yellowing, defoliation and regrowth with progressive die-back until death occurs. Although CapaciT GG is not normally prone to excessive leaching, some product loss may occur in conjunction with abnormally high rainfall which may influence efficacy due to product loss. CapaciT GG may cause injury to annual grasses and seedling grasses with slight injury to established perennial grasses. These symptoms should be transient in nature and grass production will usually increase as the tree and shrub competition is reduced. CapaciT GG is applied as a management tool to control bush encroachment to the extent that the grass can recover and enable proper veld management. Follow-up treatment, especially on seedlings and re-growth is essential for the maintenance of vigorous grasslands which prevent the re-encroachment of woody plants. Increased grass production is dependent on an acceptable grazing management programme and adequate rainfall.
It is essential to allow grasses to seed and to allow the seedlings to become established following treatment before grazing the treated area. APPLICATION METHODS Hand application: Weigh out the recommended quantity of CapaciT GG and distribute it evenly over the canopy of the target plant. The treatment must be applied to the area where the feeder roots are located. A minimum of 1 m 2 per 2 m plant height must be treated. Aerial application: Ensure that the equipment is correctly calibrated and is checked regularly during application to ensure even and accurate application. Aerial application of CapaciT GG may only be carried out by fixed wing aircraft fitted with specially designed application apparatus. For more information, contact your supplier or the registration holder. The application rates vary according to species and clay content of the soil (Refer to the tables below). IMPORTANT: Do not apply CapaciT GG during rainy conditions, or when the wind speed exceeds 20 km/h A minimum flying height of 20 metres above the canopy of the target plants must be maintained. The swath width depends on the type of spreader used. The target area must be correctly marked out and the markers used must be clearly visible to the operator. RECOMMENDATIONS The recommended application rates indicated in the table below may be reduced on very shallow, light or gravely soils with a low adsorption capacity. Refer to the specific recommendations for multi-stemmed trees. Always consult your supplier regarding applications under the above-mentioned circumstances as well as in events where deep sandy soils occur or where the clay content exceeds 40%.

WEERSTANDSBESTUUR Vir weerstandsbestuur, is CapaciT GG n groep kode C2 onkruiddoder. Enige onkruidpopulasie mag natuurlike weerstandbiedende onkruide teen CapaciT GG en ander
Groep Kode C2 onkruiddoders. Die weerstandbiedende individue kan uiteindelik die onkruidpopulasie domineer as hierdie produkte herhaaldelik gebruik word. Hierdie weerstandbiedende onkruide mag nie deur CapaciT GG beheer word nie of dan enige ander Groep Kode C2 onkruiddoder. Om onkruiddoder weerstand te vertraag: Vermy die eksklusiewe herhaaldelike gebruik van onkruiddoders met dieselfde groepkode Wissel af met, of gebruik tenkmengsels van, produkte in verskillende onkruiddodergroepkodes. Integreer ander beheermaatreëls (chemies, verbouing, biologies) in onkruidbeheerprogramme. Vir spesifieke inligting oor weerstandsbestuur kontak die registrasiehouer van hierdie produk. Die teenwoordigheid van weerstandbiedende onkruide is moeilik om vas te stel voor die gebruik van die produk en, daarom, kan die Registrasiehouer of die Verspreider nie verantwoordelikheid aanvaar vir enige verliese wat gely mag word vir CapaciT GG wat nie weerstandbiedende onkruide beheer nie. Moet nie CapaciT GG alleen gebruik in situasies waar onkruid weerstandbiedendheid bevestig is nie. Sub-standaard toediening van CapaciT GG sal lei tot ondergeskikte onkruidbeheer en mag bydrae dan tot ontwikkeling van onkruiddoder weerstand. Dit is uiters belangrik om behandelde areas op gereëlde intervalle te inspekteer met die doel om die teenwoordigheid van weerstandbiedende onkruide deurlopend te identifiseer. METODE VAN WERKING CapaciT GG is n sistemiese grond onkruiddoder, ge-absorbeer hoofsaaklik deur die wortels, met effektiewe translokasie. Dit is n fotosintetiese elektron transport inhibeerder by die fotosisteem II reseptorvlak. GEBRUIKSAANWYSINGS Gebruik slegs soos aangedui. Lees al die instruksies deeglik deur voor aanwending. Alhoewel CapaciT GG enige tyd van die jaar toegedien mag word, word behandeling eers effektief met genoegsame reën wat die aktief in die wortelsoon inloog waar dit dan opgeneem kan word deur die teiken plant. Daarom word dit aanbeveel om CapaciT GG toe te dien voor, of aan die begin van die reën seisoen om beste resultate te verkry. CapaciT GG het n stadige werking en gevoelige plantsoorte mag tot 24 maande vat om dood te gaan, afhangend van grondtekstuur, spesie en effektiewe reënval. Gedurende hierdie periode, behoort die plante herhaalde vergeeling te wys, blaarval en hergroei met progressiewe terugsterwing tot die finale dood. Dus word n tweede behandeling nie aanbeveel binne 24 maande of tot die simptome van ontblaring nie meer gebeur nie. Alhoewel CapaciT GG nie gewoonlik oormatig loog nie, kan daar wel loging wees onder bogemiddelde reën toestande wat effektiwiteit vermider a.g.v produk verlies. CapaciT GG mag skade maak op eenjarige grasse en saailing grasse met ligte skade op meerjarige grasse. Hierdie simptome behoort tydelik te wees en grasproduksie behoort te herstel sodra die boom en struik kompetisie verminder.
CapaciT GG word gebruik om bosindringing te bestuur sodat gras kan herstel en die veld beter bestuur kan word. Opvolg behandeling, veral op saailinge en hergroei is noodsaaklik vir die onderhoud van gesonde grasvelde wat die her-indringing van houtagtige plante voorkom. Verhoogde grasproduksie is afhanklik van aanvaarbare weidingsbestuur en genoegsame reën. Dit is belangrik dat grasplante saad kan skiet en om nuwe grasse te laat ontwikkel voordat daar gewei word. TOEDIENINGSMETODES Handtoediening: Weeg die aanbevole hoeveelheid CapaciT GG en versprei egalig oor die drup van die teiken plant. Die behandeling moet toegedien word op die area waar opneemwortels teenwoordig is. n Minimum van 1 m 2 per 2 m planthoogte moet behandel word. Lugtoediening: Maak seker dat die toerusting korrek gekalibreer is en nagegaan word gedurende toediening om egalige en akkurate verpreiding te verseker. Lugtoediening van CapaciT GG mag slegs toegedien word met n vastevlerk vliegtuig met die geskikte toedieningsapparaat. Vir meer inligting, kontak u naaste verskaffer or die registrasie houer. Die toedienings dosis may verskil afhangende van spesie en klei-inhoud van die grond, (sien tabelle onder). BELANGRIK: Moenie CapaciT GG toedien tydens reënerige kondisies, of wanneer die windspoed 20 km/h oorskry nie. n Minimum vlieghoogte van 20 metres bo die grond moet gehanthaaf word. Die wydte van die strooibane is afhanklik van die tipe korrel verspreidingsapparaat wat gebruik word. Die teiken area moet duidelik gemerk word en die merkers wat gebruik word moet sigbaar wees vir die operateur. AANBEVEELINGS Die aanbevole toedienings dosis in die tabel onder mag verminder word op baie vlak, ligte of klipperige gronde met lae adsorpsie kapasiteit. Sien spesifieke aanbevelings vir meer-stammige bome. Raadpleeg altyd jou verskaffer onder die bogenoemde situasies sowel as by diep sandgronde of waar die klei-inhoud 40% oorskry.
