Remedy Herbicide

Remedy Herbicide, by DOW/CORTEVA, is an emulsifiable concentrate designed to kill tough woody plants and both annual and perennial broadleaf weeds like black medic and sumac.

Containing 61.6% triclopyr as the active ingredient, this herbicide can be applied via foliar spray, basal bark application, cut stump treatment, or aerial broadcast.

Remedy Herbicide targets over 35 brush and broadleaf weed species, controlling them from the foliage down to the roots, which promotes healthy grass growth.

Tools Needed

Apply Remedy Herbicide with a backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, vehicle-mounted sprayer, or knapsack sprayer.

How to Use

• Step 1: Measure the treatment area by multiplying its length and width in feet to get square footage. For acreage, divide square footage by 43,560. Use 2 pints of Remedy Herbicide per 10 gallons of water per acre for general broadleaf weed control. For rangelands and permanent grass pastures, apply 1-4 quarts per 100 gallons of water. Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) areas require 1-2 pints or up to 1 1/2 quarts per 10 gallons of water per acre for deep-rooted weeds. Do not exceed 1 1/2 quarts per acre per growing season on CRP acres. Always check the label for exact rates.
• Step 2: Fill the sprayer halfway with water, add the calculated amount of Remedy Herbicide, then fill the tank with the remaining water. Secure the lid and shake to mix thoroughly. If the mixture sits for more than 4 hours, shake again before use.
• Step 3: For foliar applications, spray the top and underside of leaves until wet but avoid runoff. For basal bark treatment, spray the lower 12 to 15 inches of stems and trunks thoroughly without runoff, including the root collar. For cut stump treatment, spray the stump sides and the outer cut surface including the cambium until fully wet without runoff.

Where to Use

Use Remedy Herbicide for brush control on rangeland, permanent grass pastures, and Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) acres, including fence rows and non-irrigation ditch banks in these areas.

Do not spray pastures containing desirable forbs, especially legumes like clover, unless loss of these plants is acceptable.

Avoid direct application or spray drift onto cotton, grapes, peanuts, soybeans, tobacco, vegetable crops, flowers, citrus, or other desirable broadleaf plants.

When to Use

Apply foliar sprays when woody plants and broadleaf weeds are actively growing.

For woody plants, treat after early spring rapid growth when leaves are fully expanded and terminal growth has slowed. Ensure brush regrowth is at least 4 feet tall to provide sufficient foliage for absorption.

Safety Information

Remedy Herbicide is safe around children and pets when used as directed on the label. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing or applying.

Keep children and pets out of treated areas until 24 hours after application.

Check the label for grazing and forage harvesting restrictions, especially for lactating dairy animals and other livestock, as rules vary.

Special Considerations

Established grasses tolerate Remedy Herbicide well, but newly seeded grasses may be harmed until they develop strong secondary roots and tillers. Do not reseed treated areas for at least three weeks post-application.
