to Acetochlor, avoid drift of mist to these crops during spraying the product.
2) Acetochlor 900g/L EC can only be applied after the seeding but before
the emergence. DO NOT use the product after emergence of grasses and crops.
3) The consistent high temperature and rainfall may
cause damage to crops. Use caution and apply low rate in such climate
