Correct answer to question 4020
- A: Yes, if the site is on the label and the label does not prohibit it
Explanation
FIFRA section 2(ee) lists uses that are not considered inconsistent with the labeling. Applying a pesticide against a target pest not named on the label is allowed if the application is to a crop, animal or site that is on the label, unless the label specifically prohibits it. Lowering the rate is also covered by 2(ee), but it does not replace the site requirement.
