Magister Herbicide Commercial use

Rice Safety

Transient bleaching of rice seedlings can occur in some circumstances particularly at the higher rates, in situations where rice seedlings protrude above the water level at time of application, and leaves are directly contacted by the concentrated emulsion or if the rice plant is under stress e.g. slime, salty soils or cold, deep water. In most cases seedlings usually recover rapidly. The variety Illabong is especially susceptible to bleaching. DO NOT apply to the variety Illabong established by the following methods - drill, sod or dry broadcast sown prior to permanent flood water. In cold conditions, the life of Magister in water can be extended which may increase the likelihood of bleaching in sensitive varieties. Under these conditions use the minimum rate specified for the crop growth stage.
