GLOBAL FORMULATIONS TOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROFILE Loyant™ herbicide will be formulated as a liquid NeoEC™ formulation. Loyant has a very favorable mammalian toxicity profile, with very This formulation has been designed to provide excellent tank mix low acute and chronic toxicity. The product is not genotoxic, dilution and compatibility properties. A key feature of the NeoEC teratogenic, or a reproductive toxicant. formulation is that it poses a lower adjuvant need than an SC Rinskor™ active exhibits low toxicity to all non-target organisms. The formulation. It is low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and was product demonstrates the same route of degradation in soil, water, developed to conveniently deliver the optimal type and level of a and sediment environmental compartments. built-in adjuvant. The DT 50 of the parent compound in lab tests ranged from 1-10 HERBICIDAL ACTION days in aerobic soil degradation, 5-10 days under anaerobic soil Absorption and Translocation conditions, and 4-6 under water sediment conditions. It also shows Loyant is a systemic herbicide mainly absorbed by foliage but also low solubility in water (15 μg/L) and is highly immobile in soil. by the roots of plants. It is translocated through the phloem and xylem and accumulates in the meristematic tissue where it exerts its herbicidal action.

Mode of Action

• Loyant represents the latest member of the unique synthetic auxin herbicide chemotype (HRAC group O), the arylpicolinates

• Members of the arylpicolinates demonstrate novel characteristics in terms of use rate, spectrum, weed symptoms, and Yellow Nutsedge Control environmental fate Untreated (Left) - Treated with 1 pint/acre pre-flood of Loyant™ herbicide (Right)

• The product represents an alternative mode of action for utility in rice and other crops

• Loyant and other arylpicolinates exhibit unique molecular interaction to auxin receptors as compared to other auxin herbicides
