Brazen may be used around trees/vines less than
two years old provided they are effectively shielded from spray and spray drift. The recommended rate of use is determined by the following criteria: WEED SPECIES WEED STAGE OF GROWTH WEED DENSITY CLIMATIC CONDITIONS WEED SPECIES Apply the appropriate rate to control the least susceptible weed present as per the lists of weeds controlled in the accompanying tables. WEED STAGE OF GROWTH Use the lower rate when weeds are young and succulent (grasses; pre-tillering; broadleaves; cotyledons to 4-leaf) or the population is very sparse. A median rate should be used for medium sized plants (grasses; tillering; broadleaves, 4 leaf to advances vegetative) and the high rate should be used when weeds are mature (grasses; nodding to flowering; broadleaves, budding to flowering). WEED DENSITY Use the higher rates when the weed population is dense. Thorough coverage of weeds is essential for good control. CLIMATIC CONDITIONS Best results are achieved when applied under warm humid conditions. Control will be reduced and/or slower under cold conditions and/or overcast conditions. Good results will be achieved under most other conditions, however poor results may occur under hot, dry conditions (temperatures above 33oC with a relative humidity below 50%). Weeds that have been hardened or stunted in growth due to stressed conditions should be treated at the maximum rate. COVERAGE Complete coverage of weeds is essential for good control. Poor coverage may result in re-growth. PERENNIAL WEEDS Apply when weeds are actively growing. Follow up treatments will be necessary to control re-growth of perennial weeds in most cases.

Refer to General Instructions. Brazen is a non-
selective, non-residual herbicide with limited
translocation potential. It is therefore ideally suited
for line-marking on sports fields where precise weed control is required. Apply at 6 – 8 week intervals depending on growth of turf. Apply using single boom or hand wand.

APPLICATION RATE COMMON NAME SCIENTIFIC NAME Boom or directed Handgun mL/100 L Knapsack mL/15 L Sprayer L/ha ANNUAL WEEDS PERENNIAL WEEDS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Brazen is a non-volatile herbicide with non-selective activity against many annual and perennial broadleaf weeds and grasses. Brazen is absorbed by plant foliage and green stems. It is not significantly translocated as an active herbicide throughout the plant, and therefore will only kill that part of a green plant that is contacted by spray. Brazen does not provide residual weed control. Visible symptoms of control appear in 3 to 7 days, but complete desiccation may take 20 to 30 days under cool conditions. Best results are achieved when application is made under good growing conditions. Application to weeds under stress (e.g. due to continuous severe frosts, dry or waterlogged conditions) should be avoided. Soil fumigation / sterilisation Brazen is metabolised (broken down) by microorganisms in the soil to become inactive. Soil fumigation or sterilisation will reduce the number of microorganisms present, thus slowing the breakdown of Brazen. As damage to transplants or seedlings may occur, it is not advisable to apply Brazen in conjunction with soil fumigation or sterilisation. Plastic mulches Brazen will remain active on inert surfaces such as plastic. Special care should be taken when applying Brazen over plastic mulches, as plant contact with the mulch after spraying may result in crop damage. Export of Treated Produce Growers should note that suitable MRLs or import tolerances may not be established in all markets for produce treated with Brazen Non-Selective Herbicide. If you are growing produce for export, please check with Sipcam for the latest information on MRLs and import tolerances BEFORE using Brazen Non-Selective Herbicide. Compatibility Brazen is compatible with most residual herbicides e.g. simazine, diuron, oxyfluorfen, norfluazuron and oryzalin. The addition of a wetting agent or other adjuvant is generally not considered necessary. However, benefit has been obtained using a wetting agent or adjuvant on hard-to-wet weeds when using water rates in excess of 500 L/ha. The rate is 25 mL/100 L of a 1000 g/L non-ionic wetting agent, or equivalent. Mixing Brazen mixes easily with water. Clean water should always be used for mixing with the product. Ensure that the spray tank is free of any residues of previous spray materials. Two-thirds fill the spray tank with clean water, and with agitator operating add the required amount of Brazen. Add other relevant compatible products. Top the tank up to the required volume with clean water with agitator running. Application Eqipment Ground Sprayers Aim to apply a thorough and even coverage of spray to the target plant. Dense stands of weeds should be thoroughly wetted with spray. Incomplete coverage may result in poor control. Equipment should be such that adequate coverage, penetration and volume of spray liquid can be achieved. Boom or Directed Sprayer Equipment Brazen should be applied at label rates (refer to specific column in the list of weeds controlled) in sufficient water to give thorough coverage of weeds. It has been found that 300 to 500 L/Ha has given good results under most weed conditions. Special care must be taken when using sprayer/slasher combination units not to cause dust and turbulence, which can carry spray into non-target areas. Knapsack and Handgun Equipment Brazen should be applied at label rates (refer to specific columns in the list of weeds controlled) in adequate water to thoroughly wet the weeds being sprayed, i.e. 500 to 1000 L/ha. Dense stands will require up to 1000 L/ha of spray mixture, whereas less dense stands will require less water. High volume application using hollow-cone nozzles for hand spraying is recommended. Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) Equipment Brazen may be applied through CDA row spraying equipment fitted with a solid (impermeable) shroud or skirt, at rates as recommended for boom or directed sprayers (Refer to specific column in the list of weeds controlled), provided thorough spray coverage of weeds can be achieved. Apply preferably when weeds are less than 15 cm in height, with the equipment set up so that the spray dome only just touches the tops of the weeds. A total spray volume of 20 to 30 L/ha has been found to give good results. Do not mix residual herbicides or any spray adjuvants with Brazen when using CDA equipment. Warning: Because the spray solution is highly concentrated particular care must be taken when using Brazen through CDA equipment to avoid contact of the spray solution with any part of the crop trunk or canopy. DO NOT apply Brazen through equipment fitted with bristle skirts. Particular care should be taken when using CDA equipment around green or uncalloused bark. Please refer to PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS. CDA equipment must not be used for application in cherry orchards. Sprayer Cleanup Clean all equipment after use by thoroughly flushing with water. RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING HERBICIDE
Brazen is a member of the glycine group of herbicides. The product is an inhibitor of glutamine synthetise. For weed resistance management the product is a Group N Herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to the product and other Group N herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by the product or other Group N herbicides. Since occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Sipcam Pacific Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Brazen Herbicide to control resistant weeds. PRECAUTIONS Re-entry Period Do not allow entry into treated areas until the spray has dried. When prior entry is necessary, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist (or equivalent clothing) and chemical resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day’s use. PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with this product or the used container. PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment, that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands or pastures. DO NOT apply on desirable foliage or allow spray to drift onto the foliage of plants, trees or vines, as damage will occur. DO NOT allow product to contact green or uncalloused bark (such as on young trees and vines) or cut, cracked, damaged or wounded tissue, where the affected surface is not adequately healed. Brazen may be used around trees/vines less than two years old provided they are effectively shielded from spray and spray drift. DO NOT allow desirable plant foliage to contact any inert surface, such as plastic mulches, which have been treated with Brazen. DO NOT apply the product to recently fumigated or sterilised soil. STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on site.
