Dual Gold Herbicide (APVMA 50477)
Active constituent: 960 g/L S-Metolachlor. Group 15 herbicide.
Controls certain annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in certain crops as specified in the Directions for Use.
DUAL GOLD Herbicide is a short residual, pre-emergent herbicide registered for the control of many important annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in the crops nominated. The product acts mainly through shoot (coleoptile) absorption. Its effectiveness depends on the occurrence of rainfall or irrigation to move it down into the top 3 to 4 cm of soil, where it must be present at the time of weed germination.
The product does not control the important broadleaf weeds in maize, sweet corn and CONCEP II or EPIVIO C treated sorghum but, when mixed with atrazine, control of many important annual weeds and grasses is obtained without the problem of carryover of herbicides affecting succeeding crops.
DUAL GOLD will not control emerged weeds. Always read the registered label before use.

Common Questions
What does Dual Gold control?
Dual Gold is a short residual, pre-emergent herbicide registered for the control of many important annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in the crops nominated on the label. It will not control emerged weeds.
When should it be applied?
Timing depends on the crop and is set out in the Directions for Use table on the registered label. For example, green beans and navy beans: apply before, at or immediately after planting and before crops and weeds have germinated; brassica leafy vegetables: apply one treatment only, immediately after transplanting.
Does it need rain or irrigation?
Yes. Its effectiveness depends on rainfall or irrigation to move it down into the top 3 to 4 cm of soil, where it must be present at the time of weed germination. Drying of the top soil can result in less effective weed control.
Are there grazing or harvest withholding periods?
Yes, they vary by crop (for example, pastures: do not graze or cut for stock food for 13 weeks after application). See the withholding periods on the registered label (APVMA 50477).
