Use Recommendations 

Smaller target weeds can be more effectively controlled using VISCOUNT®, potentially at a lower application rate. VISCOUNT® can be tank-mixed with SU herbicides when used at the full rate of 125ml/ha plus oil. DO NOT mix reduced rate VISCOUNT® with an SU. VISCOUNT® should not be mixed with hormone herbicides and must be used in sequence; wait 14 days from application of a hormone herbicide before using VISCOUNT®, or seven days after VISCOUNT® application before using a hormone herbicide
