Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default, HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL + OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time. .gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) + EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>. .gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt, Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh. .gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md + sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping. chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes). .dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md, deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25 explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

|
||||
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||||
This product is toxic to non-target plants. Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to inter tidal areas
|
||||
below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when cleaning equipment or disposing of equipment washwaters or
|
||||
rinsate.
|
||||
This product may contaminate water through drift of spray in wind. Follow precautions for use to avoid wind spray drift.
|
||||
This product has a high potential for runoff after application. Poorly draining soils and soils with shallow water tables are m ore prone to
|
||||
produce runoff that contains this product. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied
|
||||
and surface water features such as ponds, streams and springs will reduce the potential for contamination of water from runoff. Runoff
|
||||
of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours. Sound erosion co ntrol
|
||||
practices will reduce this product’s contribution to surface water contamination.
|
||||
This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in ground water. The use of this chemical i n areas
|
||||
where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in ground-water contamination.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||||
LAUDIS® Herbicide is intended for postemergence application in field corn (including silage corn, seed corn), sweet corn, and popcorn
|
||||
for the control of annual broadleaf and grass weeds and for postharvest burndown weed control. Weed growth ceases within hours
|
||||
after LAUDIS Herbicide is applied. Symptoms on susceptible weed species progress from yellowing and bleaching to necrosis resulting
|
||||
in eventual plant death generally within 7 to 14 days after application.
|
||||
WEED CONTROL INFORMATION
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide effectively controls a broad array of grass and broadleaf weeds, including biotypes resistant to glyphosate-,triazine-,
|
||||
phenoxy-, benzoic-, and ALS-inhibiting herbicides, when applied at 3 fl oz/A along with the recommended adjuvant system (Tables 1
|
||||
and 2). Best control of broadleaf weeds is achieved when weeds are less than 6” in height and actively growing. The best control of
|
||||
grass weeds is achieved prior to tillering and when grasses are actively growing. In corn, the addition of atrazine at a minimum 0.5 lb
|
||||
ai/A will improve control of broadleaf weeds larger than 6 “ in height and increase the speed, spectrum, and consistency of grass
|
||||
control. Always follow the most restrictive use rates and use instructions listed on the labeling of all tank mix partners. It is the pesticide
|
||||
user’s responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Users must follow the most
|
||||
restrictive directions and precautionary language of the products in the mixture (for example, first aid from one product, spray drift
|
||||
management from another).

Cultivation
|

Cultivation can help remove suppressed weeds or multiple flushing weeds. However, cultivation should not be performed within 7 days
|

of an application of LAUDIS Herbicide as this could decrease the effectiveness of weed control due to disruption of herbicide
|
||||
translocation in the plant.

|
||||
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||||
This product is a Group 27 herbicide. A given weed population may contain or develop resistance to a herbicide after repeated use.
|
||||
Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed to mitigate or delay resistance. The following Integrated Weed
|
||||
Management Techniques are effective in reducing problems with herbicide resistant weed biotypes. It is best to use multiple practices
|
||||
to manage or delay resistance, as no single strategy is likely to be totally effective.
|
||||
• Rotate crops. Crop rotation diversifies weed management.
|
||||
• Rotate Herbicide-tolerant traits. Alternate herbicide tolerant traits and or use HT trait stacks for more efficient rotations
|
||||
• Rotate and tankmix modes of action. Use tankmix partners and multiple MOAs during both the growing season and from
|
||||
year to year to reduce the selection pressure of a single MOA
|
||||
• Know your weeds, know your field. Closely monitor problematic areas with difficult to control weeds or dense weed
|
||||
populations
|
||||
• Start with clean fields. Effective tillage or the use of a burndown herbicide program can control emerged weeds prior to
|
||||
planting
|
||||
• Stay clean – use residual herbicides. Regardless of tillage system, a pre emergence or early postemergence soil –applied
|
||||
residual herbicide should be used.
|
||||
• Apply herbicides correctly. Ensure proper application, correct timing, full-use rates and appropriate spray volumes
|
||||
• Control weed escapes. Consider spot herbicide application, row wicking, cultivation, hand removal of weeds or other
|
||||
techniques to stop weed seed production and improve weed management.
|
||||
• Zero Tolerance – reduce the weed seed bank. Do not allow surviving weeds to set seed, which will help decrease weed
|
||||
populations from year to year and prevent major weed shifts.
|
||||
• Clean Equipment. Prevent the spread of herbicide resistant weeds and seeds
|
||||
Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisory and /or Bayer CropScience representative for additional resistance
|
||||
management or IPM recommendation. Also for more information on Weed Resistance Management, visit the Herbicide Resistance

ROTATIONAL CROP RESTRICTIONS
|
||||
If a corn crop has been destroyed by hail or other means soon after a LAUDIS Herbicide application, field corn, sweet corn, or popcorn
|
||||
can be replanted immediately after a LAUDIS Herbicide application. See chart below for rotational interval to all other crops a fter a
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide application. Planting at shorter than specified intervals will result in injury to the rotational crop

4 All other crops may be seeded only after the completion of a successful bioassay after a LAUDIS Herbicide application. Refer to the
|
||||
“Field/Small Scale Bioassay” section.
|
||||
Cover Crops
|
||||
Use of cover crops as a means of soil improvement, erosion control, weed and/or insect suppression, etc., following harvest of corn in
|
||||
the Fall is increasing. Planting of cover crops in fields treated with LAUDIS Herbicide is allowed as long as these cover crops are not
|
||||
grazed by livestock nor harvested for food. Cover crops are to be tilled under or chemically controlled with burndown herbicides in the
|
||||
spring. Many cover crops can be planted within 90-120 days after application of LAUDIS Herbicide. However, all potential cover crops
|
||||
have not been evaluated for tolerance to LAUDIS Herbicide and significant injury may occur. Prior to seeding a cover crop, complete a
|
||||
successful field/small scale bioassay to provide an indication of the level of tolerance to the prior LAUDIS Herbicide application. Refer
|
||||
to the “Field/Small Scale Bioassay” section. If used in tank mixtures with other herbicides, always follow the most restrictive label.
|
||||
Field/Small Scale Bioassay
|
||||
A field/small scale bioassay must be completed before rotating to a crop other than those specified in the Rotational Crop Restrictions
|
||||
section of this label. To conduct an effective field bioassay, grow strips of the crop(s) you intend to grow in the following season in a
|
||||
field previously treated with LAUDIS Herbicide. The test strip should be placed in a controlled area and should include variations in soil
|
||||
such as type and pH. Crop response to the bioassay will determine if the crop(s) grown in the test strips can be grown safely in the
|
||||
areas previously treated with LAUDIS Herbicide.
|
||||
For an effective small scale bioassay, collect uniform samples of all soil types from the LAUDIS Herbicide-treated field and place the
|
||||
soil into a sturdy container. Plant the desired cover crop into the soil, apply water and place the container in a warm sunny area to
|
||||
allow germination and growth of the crop. Monitor growth of the cover crop over a three to four week period. If the crop emerges and
|
||||
grows normally, the risk to establish and grow the cover crop in the LAUDIS Herbicide-treated field should be tolerable.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||||
Spray drift may result in injury to non target crops or vegetation. To avoid spray drift, do not apply when wind speed is greater than 10
|
||||
MPH or during periods of temperature inversions. Do not apply when weather conditions, wind speed or wind direction may cause
|
||||
spray drift to non-target areas. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
|
||||
APPLICATOR.
|
||||
Sensitive Areas
|
||||
Only apply this product when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for
|
||||
threatened or endangered species, non target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is 10 MPH or less and is blowing away from sensitive
|
||||
areas).
|
||||
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment-and-wea ther-related
|
||||
factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factor s when
|
||||
making decisions.
|
||||
Do not apply under circumstances where possible drift to unprotected persons, or to food, forage, or other plantings that might be
|
||||
damaged, as crops thereof may be rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption.
|
||||
Information On Droplet Size
|
||||
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest
|
||||
droplets that still provide sufficient weed coverage and control. Applying larger droplets will reduce drift potential, but wil l not prevent
|
||||
drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind, Temperature and Humidity, a nd
|
||||
Temperature Inversion sections below).
|
||||
Uniform, thorough spray coverage is important to achieve consistent weed control. Select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM
|
||||
spray droplets as indicated in nozzle manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572. Nozzles that deliver
|
||||
COARSE spray droplets may be used to reduce spray drift provided spray volume per acre (GPA) is increased to maintain coverage of
|
||||
weeds.
|
||||
Controlling Droplet Size
|
||||
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce
|
||||
larger droplets.
|
||||
• Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer’s recommended pressures. For many nozzle types lower pressure
|
||||
produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
|
||||
• Number of nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
|
||||
• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles
|
||||
produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest
|
||||
droplets and the lowest drift.
|
||||
Application Height
|
||||
For ground boom applications, apply with nozzle height no more than 15 inches above the ground or crop canopy.
|
||||
Wind
|
||||
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 - 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type
|
||||
determine drift potential at any given speed. Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar wi th local
|
||||
wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.
|
||||
Temperature and Humidity
|
||||
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. D roplet
|
||||
evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry. Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/or high
|
||||
temperatures.
|
||||
|
||||
10
|
||||
Temperature Inversion
|
||||
Do not make applications into areas of temperature inversion. Temperature inversion restricts vertical air mixing, which causes small
|
||||
suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds
|
||||
common during inversion. Temperature inversion is characterized by an increasing temperature with altitude and is common on nig hts
|
||||
with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. It begins to form as the sun sets and often continues into the morning. Its pres ence can be
|
||||
indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversion can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a groun d
|
||||
source. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke
|
||||
that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
|
||||
APPLICATION INFORMATION
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide may be applied by ground application only. Uniform, thorough spray coverage is important to achieve consisten t
|
||||
weed control. Select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets as indicated in nozzle manufacturer’s catalogs and in
|
||||
accordance with ASAE Standard S-572. Nozzles that deliver COARSE spray droplets may be used to reduce spray drift provided spra y
|
||||
volume per acre (GPA) is increased to maintain coverage of weeds. Flat fan nozzles of 80° or 110° are recommended for optimum
|
||||
postemergence coverage.
|
||||
• Do not use nozzles that produce FINE (e.g. - Cone) or EXTRA COARSE (e.g. - Flood jet) spray droplets.
|
||||
Ground Application
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide can be applied broadcast in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre (unless a higher volume is specified for a
|
||||
tank-mix partner). For weed control in dense weed populations or under adverse growing conditions, 15 to 20 gallons of water pe r acre
|
||||
is recommended. Good coverage is essential to achieve optimum weed control.
|
||||
Typically, flat-fan nozzles operated at 30-60 PSI will deliver MEDIUM spray droplets, providing optimum spray coverage and cano py
|
||||
penetration. Lower pressure operation and/or higher volume flat fan nozzles typically deliver COARSE sprays. Refer to nozzle
|
||||
manufacturer catalogs.
|
||||
• Boom height should be based on the height of the crop – at least 15 inches above the crop canopy.
|
||||
• Air induction nozzles should be used at or near 80 psi to produce a medium droplet size.
|
||||
• Proper agitation should be maintained within the tank to keep the product dispersed.
|
||||
• See the Spray Drift Management section of this label for additional information on proper application of LAUDIS Herbicide.
|
||||
COMPATIBILITY
|
||||
If LAUDIS Herbicide is to be tank mixed with other pesticides, compatibility must be tested prior to mixing. To test for compat ibility, use
|
||||
a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1qt) of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any
|
||||
indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually o ccur within 5-
|
||||
15 minutes after mixing. If the mixture balls-up, forms flakes, sludges, gels, oily film or layers, or other precipitates, it i s not compatible
|
||||
and the tank mix combination should not be used.
|
||||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide must be applied with clean and properly calibrated equipment. Prior to adding LAUDIS Herbicide, ensure that th e
|
||||
spray tank, filters and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned and that agitation system is properly working.
|
||||
1. Fill spray tank with 50% of the required volume of water, and begin agitation.
|
||||
2. Agitate the LAUDIS Herbicide product container thoroughly by shaking, circulating or stirring prior to adding the herbicide i nto
|
||||
the spray tank.
|
||||
3. Add the appropriate amount of LAUDIS Herbicide slowly to the spray tank or mixing system and ensure complete dispersion.
|
||||
Maintain and ensure thorough dispersion and sufficient agitation during both mixing and spraying.
|
||||
4. If tank mixing with another pesticide, add the tank mix product next (except in the case of glyphosate which should be added
|
||||
after the nitrogen fertilizer is dispersed).
|
||||
5. Add nitrogen fertilizer.
|
||||
6. Add the adjuvant.
|
||||
7. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
|
||||
|
||||
11
|
||||
SPRAY ADDITIVES
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide is a suspension concentrate that requires the use of an external federally approved surfactant and a nitrogen
|
||||
fertilizer source to achieve optimum weed control. For specific adjuvant recommendations with tank mixes, see the Tank Mix section of
|
||||
this label.
|
||||
Federally Approved Surfactant
|
||||
The use of a Methylated Seed Oil (MSO) is recommended when LAUDIS Herbicide is used or when alternative adjuvants are not
|
||||
otherwise specified on this label. MSO can improve control of weeds under stress, in high populations, in mixed grass and broadleaf
|
||||
weed populations, and under conditions of low humidity. Use MSO at 1 gallon per 100 gallons of water (1% v/v). MSO should contain at
|
||||
least 80% MSO and 10% emulsifier or greater. The use of adjuvants such as non-ionic federally approved surfactants or refined
|
||||
vegetable oils will result in unacceptable or erratic weed control.
|
||||
As an alternative to traditional MSO federally approved surfactants, High federally approved Surfactant oil Concentrates (HSOC) at
|
||||
specified rates may be used with LAUDIS Herbicide. An HSOC is an emulsifiable oil based product containing 25-50% federally
|
||||
approved surfactant (wt/wt) in a minimum of 50% oil (wt/wt). The oil concentrates in HSOC can be based on MSO or COC. MSO based
|
||||
products are preferred with LAUDIS Herbicide particularly when used alone or with atrazine.
|
||||
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
|
||||
Use 1.5 qt/A of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) or 1.5 lb/A (8.5 lb per 100 gallons) of a spray-grade ammonium sulfate
|
||||
(AMS). Use UAN under conditions of low relative humidity for greater weed control.
|
||||
TANK CLEANOUT PROCEDURES
|
||||
(Cleaning Equipment after LAUDIS Herbicide Application)
|
||||
Special attention must be given to cleaning equipment before spraying a crop other than corn. Mix only as much cleaning solution as
|
||||
needed.
|
||||
1. Remove, dump and clean main sump and boom strainers in a standard commercial tank cleaner solution.
|
||||
2. Disassemble nozzle bodies including screens, gaskets, and diaphragm caps and clean in a standard commercial tank cleaner
|
||||
solution.
|
||||
3. Rinse walls of tank and all surfaces of tank to remove visible residue.
|
||||
4. Reassemble nozzles and strainers.
|
||||
5. Flush the system with clean water.
|
||||
6. Add 25-50 gallons of water to spray tank. Add 1-2 gallons of household bleach to spray tank (1 gallon bleach for 25 gallons
|
||||
water). Start agitation in the sprayer and re-circulate the bleach-containing solution for 15 minutes.
|
||||
7. Spray out the bleach-containing solution until the tank is empty.
|
||||
8. Rinse machine with clean water.
|
||||
9. Dispose of all rinsate in an appropriate manner.
|
||||
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
|
||||
1. LAUDIS Herbicide is rainfast 1 hour after application to most weed species. Avoid application if rainfall is predicted during this
|
||||
period. Rainfall within 1 hour of application may necessitate retreatment with LAUDIS Herbicide or may result in reduced weed
|
||||
control.
|
||||
2. Weed control may be reduced if the application is made when weeds are dust covered or in the presence of heavy dew, fog,
|
||||
and mist/rain or when weeds are under stress due to drought.
|
||||
3. Apply LAUDIS Herbicide spray mixtures within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
|
||||
4. Avoid drift onto adjacent crops.
|
||||
5. When weeds are stressed due to drought, heat, lack of fertility, flooding, or prolonged cool temperatures control can be
|
||||
reduced or delayed because weeds are not actively growing. To obtain optimum weed control, apply LAUDIS Herbicide when
|
||||
weeds are actively growing.
|
||||
6. If applying LAUDIS Herbicide or any solo post emergence HPPD herbicide (Callisto, Armezon, Impact, etc) after a HPPD-
|
||||
containing product has been applied preplant/pre-emergence, always tankmix the post emergence HPPD herbicide with an
|
||||
additional effective mode of action herbicide(s). Refer to the Resistance Management section for additional specific
|
||||
precautions to help prevent weed resistance to this product.
|
||||
|
||||
12
|
||||
RESTRICTIONS FOR USE
|
||||
1. DO NOT apply when wind causes drift to off-site vegetation as injury may occur. LAUDIS Herbicide delivered via drift or tank
|
||||
contamination can cause severe damage to other crops. Careful management of spray drift and tank cleanout is required.
|
||||
2. Field corn, sweet corn, or popcorn can be planted immediately after an application of LAUDIS Herbicide. DO NOT plant other
|
||||
rotational crops immediately following LAUDIS Herbicide application. For all other crops refer to the Rotational Crop
|
||||
Restrictions section of this label.
|
||||
3. DO NOT apply LAUDIS Herbicide with liquid fertilizers as the primary spray carrier. Only apply with water as the primary spra y
|
||||
carrier plus recommended adjuvants. See spray adjuvants section.
|
||||
4. DO NOT apply this product by air or through any type of irrigation system.
|
||||
SPECIFIC CROP USE DIRECTIONS
|
||||
CORN
|
||||
(Field Corn, Popcorn, Seed Corn and Sweet Corn)
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide can be applied postemergence on all types of corn. Best results are obtained when it is applied to young, actively
|
||||
growing weeds. LAUDIS Herbicide will affect weeds that are larger than the recommended height; however it may result in incomplete
|
||||
weed control.
|
||||
• Apply LAUDIS Herbicide at 3 fl oz/A per application. Always add the appropriate adjuvants to the spray tank (see Spray
|
||||
Additives information section of this label).
|
||||
• Applications of LAUDIS Herbicide at rates less than 3 fl oz/A postemergence may result in incomplete weed control and
|
||||
reduction in residual activity.
|
||||
• Broadcast applications of LAUDIS Herbicide must be made to corn from emergence up to the V8 stage of growth for field corn
|
||||
or popcorn, or from emergence up to the V7 stage of growth for sweet corn.
|
||||
• A second postemergence application may be made to field corn or popcorn. Applications of this product must be made a
|
||||
minimum of 7 days apart.
|
||||
• Sweet Corn, Seed Corn and Popcorn Only - Herbicide sensitivity in all hybrids and inbreds of seed corn, sweet corn
|
||||
and popcorn has not been tested. Consult with your seed provider, your local Bayer CropScience representative and/or other
|
||||
knowledgeable agricultural professionals for advice on hybrid/inbred tolerance before applying LAUDIS Herbicide. If the
|
||||
tolerance of a hybrid/inbred is not known, apply LAUDIS Herbicide to a small area to first determine if the hybrid/inbred is
|
||||
tolerant prior to spraying large acreages of that hybrid/inbred. As an example, do not use LAUDIS Herbicide on Merit or
|
||||
Shogun sweet corn varieties as unacceptable crop response will occur.
|
||||
Late or Rescue Applications
|
||||
Applications of LAUDIS Herbicide at 3 fl oz/A may be applied to escaped weeds beyond labeled weed heights. In these situations, only
|
||||
partial weed control and reduced weed competition can be expected. Apply up to the V9 stage of growth for field corn or popcorn, or up
|
||||
to the V7 stage of growth for sweet corn.
|
||||
Crop – Specific Restrictions
|
||||
• DO NOT apply LAUDIS Herbicide to corn that exhibits injury from previous herbicides applications.
|
||||
• Do NOT exceed a total of 6 fl oz/A of LAUDIS Herbicide (0.16 lb ai) per growing season on field corn or popcorn, or 3 fl oz/A
|
||||
(0.08 lb ai) per growing season on sweet corn.
|
||||
• DO NOT apply more than two applications of LAUDIS Herbicide to field corn or popcorn, or more than one application to sweet
|
||||
corn, per growing season.
|
||||
• If a second application of Laudis is made (field corn and popcorn only), the application must be made a minimum of 7 days
|
||||
after the first application.
|
||||
• DO NOT graze livestock or harvest corn forage within 45 days of application.
|
||||
Tank Mix Recommendations
|
||||
Certain tank mixes may aid in the performance of LAUDIS Herbicide. See Spray Adjuvant section of this label for use recommendations
|
||||
for use with all tank mix partners used in conjunction with LAUDIS Herbicide unless otherwise specified in the following tank mix
|
||||
directions. When using LAUDIS Herbicide in tank mix combinations, refer to individual product labels for precautionary statements,
|
||||
restrictions, rates, approved used and a list of weeds controlled and follow the directions of the most restrictive label.
|
||||
Atrazine
|
||||
|
||||
13
|
||||
An application of LAUDIS Herbicide at 3 fl oz/A in combination with atrazine at 0.5 lb ai/A will increase the speed of control, weed
|
||||
spectrum and consistency of control. Do not use atrazine if corn is greater than 12 inches tall.
|
||||
Liberty® 280 SL
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide at 3 fl oz/A can be tank mixed with Liberty® 280 SL Herbicide at 22 fl oz/A. Liberty® 280 SL Herbicide can only be
|
||||
used on corn seed designated as LibertyLink®. Apply in a minimum of 15 gallons of water per acre. Do not use MSO/ESO or COC
|
||||
adjuvants in this mixture, only add AMS at 8.5 lbs/100 gallons (1.5 lb/A).
|
||||
Define™ SC
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide at 3 fl oz/A can be tank mixed with Define™ SC at 7 to 15 fl oz/A for additional residual weed control on corn up to
|
||||

|
||||
Glyphosate (including Roundup and Touchdown branded products)
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide at 3 fl oz/A can be tank mixed with glyphosate for use on glyphosate-tolerant corn. LAUDIS Herbicide will enhance
|
||||
control of broadleaf and glyphosate-resistant weeds, and will reduce glyphosate induced weed shifts. LAUDIS Herbicide should be
|
||||
added to the water in the tank and dispersed first prior to adding ammonium sulfate, glyphosate or any other pesticide or adjuvant.
|
||||
Follow all other directions on the glyphosate label regarding adjuvants and mixing instructions with loaded (adjuvant-containing)
|
||||
formulations of glyphosate. When tank mixing LAUDIS Herbicide with full use rates of a loaded glyphosate formulation, the addition of a
|
||||
glyphosate-compatible federally approved surfactant is recommended. When tankmixing LAUDIS Herbicide with full use rates of a low
|
||||
loaded or unloaded glyphosate formulations, the addition of a glyphosate-compatible federally approved surfactant is required.
|
||||
Glyphosate-compatible oil-based federally approved surfactants such as HSOC's will optimize the performance of LAUDIS Herbicide in
|
||||
the combinations. Only glyphosate-compatible oil-based federally approved surfactant (such as HSOC) may be used when mixing
|
||||
LAUDIS Herbicide plus reduced rates of glyphosate (loaded or unloaded formulations), or when applying tank mixtures of LAUDIS
|
||||
Herbicide plus glyphosate (loaded or unloaded formulations) under arid climatic conditions.

|
||||
to 6 fl oz/A. Buctril can be used in place of atrazine in corn that is greater than 12 inches tall, which is the corn height limit for the use of
|
||||
atrazine. The use of crop oil concentration (COC) or MSO at 1% v/v + UAN at 1.5 qt/A or AMS at 8.5 lb/100 gal is recommended with
|
||||
tank mixture of LAUDIS Herbicide and Buctril.
