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).

A. GENERAL INFORMATION '
Observe all precautions and limitations on the labels of each product
used in tank mixtures. Tank mixtures are permitted only in those states
where the tank-mix partner is registered.
\
Dual is a selective herbicide recommended as a preplant surface-applied,
preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment in water or fluid
fertilizer for control of most annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds
in com (all types), cotton, peanuts, pod crops, potatoes, safflowers, grain
~ or forage sorghum, and soybeans. .
Note: Do not use in nurseries, turf, or landscape plantings.
Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil
containing this product to non-target areas.
To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion,
(1) Avoid treating powdery dry or light sand soils when conditions are
favorable for wind erosion. Under these conditions, the soil surface
should first be settled by rainfall or irrigation.
(2) Do not apply to impervious substrates such as paved or highly com
pacted surfaces.
(3) Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated
fields to treat non-target crops unless at least 1/2 inch of rainfall has
occurred between application and the first irrigation:
Where directions specify a Dual tank mixture with AAtrex formulations,
other brands of atrazine may be used. Follow the rates, recommenda-
tions, and limitations on the AAtrex or respective atrazine product label, if ".,
other brands of atrazine are used. ' , , > > '

Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can
eilher mean erratic control from good to poor, or consistent ,control at a
level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial weed
control. .' . ,
Precaution: Injury may occur following the use of Dua; under abnormally
high soil moisture conditions during early development of the crop.
1_ SQIL TEXTURES AND HERBICIDE RATES
Where rates are based on eoarse-. medium-. or fine-textured soils. it is
understood that soil textural classes are generally categorized as follows:
Coarse
Sand
Loamy sand
Sandy loam

WIthin rate ranges in the rate tables and elsewhere on this label, use the
10Vier rate on soils relatively coarse-textured or low in organic matter; use
the higher rate on soils relatively fine-textured or high in organic matter.
Note: Dual may be applied preemergence alone. or in combination with
tank-mix partners specified on this label, following preplant incorporated
herbicides when used according to their label recommendations, provided
that such use is not prohibited on the respective labels.
Thoroughly clean sprayer or other application device before using.
Dispose of cleaning solution in a responsible manner. Do not use a
spmyer or applicator contaminated with any other materials, or crop dam-

3. APPLICATION PROCEDURES
Application Timing
Dual alone or in some tank mixtures with ollier labeled herbicides may be
applied for weed control in certain crops at various times, Refer to the
given crop section of the label to determine if application timings listed
below are recommended.
1. Preplant Surface-Applied: For minimum·tillage or no-tillage
systems only, Dual alone and some Dual tank mixtures may be
applied up to 45 days before planting certain crops. Use only split
applications for treatments made 3Q-45 days before planting, with 2/3
the recommended broadcast rate for the crop and soil texture
applied initially and the remaining 113 at planting. Treatments less
--';.. :
than 30 days before planting may be made either as a split or a , , , ,
single application, Refer to individual crop to determine if early '" ,
preplant surface application is recomr.lended. If weeds are present ," , '
at the time of treatment, apply in a tank-mixture combination with a " .,
contact herbicide (for example, Gramoxone Extra or RoundtJ'PY.~ ,',
Observe directions for use, precautions, and restrictions on ,t,tw )abel' , , > , !
of the contact herbicide. To the extent possible, do not movtHrealed " , ,

3. Preemergence: Apply Dual during planting-(behind the planter) or
after planting, but before weeds or crops emerge. .
Special Application Procedures
1. CA Only (Corn, Safflowers, Pod Crops): Preplant Incorporated:
Broadcast Dual alone or with approved tank mix partners to the soil
and thoroughly incorporate with a disk or similar implement set to till
4-6 inches deep. For more thorough incorporation, till the soil in 2
different directions (cross-till). Crops may be planted on flat surface.
or on beds. Caution should be used when forming the beds that
only soil from the Dual treated zone is used (i.e., untreated soil
should not be brought to soil surface). If the application is made to
preformed beds, incorporate Dual with a tillage implement set to till
2-4 inches deep. Care should be taken during tilling to keep the
tilled (Dual treated) soil on the beds. Preemergence: Apply Dual
after planting. Water with sprinkler or flood irrigation within 7-10
days.
2. Fall Application (only in lA, MN, ND, SD, WI, and portions of NE
and IL - See specific instructions in the Corn, Soybeans, and
Pod Crops sections of this label for timing of application and
other information): Do 110t apply to frozen ground. Use on medi
um and fine soils with greater than 2.5% organic matter that will be
planted to corn or soybeans the next spring. Ground may be tilled
before or after application. Do not exceed a 2 to 3-inch incorpora
tion depth if tilled after treatment. Note: If a spring application is
made, the total rate of the fall plus spring applications must not
exceed the maximum total rate for the specific crop, or illegal
residues may result.
Ground Application: Apply Dual alone or in tank mixtures by ground
equipment in a minimum of 10 gals. of spray mixture per acre, unless
otherwise specified.
Use sprayers that provide accurate and uniform application. For Dual
tank mixtures with wettable P9wder or dry flowable formulations, screens
and strainers should be no finer than 50-mesh. Rinse sprayer thoroughly
with clean water immediately after use. . . '."

preemergence (including preplant suiface, preplan! inCOrPOrated, post
plant incorporated, etc.), and (2) Do not make lay-by or other postemer
gent applications of Dual.
C. CORN (All TYPES) - DUAL ALONE
Apply Dual, either preplant surface, preplant incorporated, preemergence,
or lay-by, using the appropriate rate specified below.
1. PREPLANT SURFACE-APPUED
Refer to instructions for use of Dual alone under Application
Procedures.
A. Fall Application:
1. Apply after September 30 in NO, SO, MN, WI, and north of
Route 30 in IA.
2. Apply after October 15 north of Route 91 in NE and south of
Route 30 in IA.
3. Apply after October 31 north of Route 136 in IL.
In all locations, apply to crop stubble after harvest when the sus
tained soil temperature at a 4-inch depth is less than 55"F and
falling. In minimum-till or no-tillage systems on soils having greater
than 2.5% organic matter, use 2.5-3.0 pts'!A on medium-textured
and 3.0 ptsJA on fine-textured soils. Do not apply to frozen ground.
A tillage opelCltion may precede the application. A fall andfor a
spring tillage may follow applrcation, but do not exceed an incorpora
tion depth greater than 2-3 inches. Minimize furrow and ridge for
mation in the tillage operations. Note: If a spring application is
made, the total rate of the fan plus spring applications must not
exceed the maximum total rate for com, or illegal residues may
result.
B. Use on medium- and fine-textured soils with minimum-tillage or no
tillage systems in CO, II>" iI.., iN, KS, KY, MN, MO, MT, ND, NE, SD,
TN, WI, and WY. Apply 2/3; the recommended rate of Dual (2.5 pts.!A
on medium soils and 3.0 pts.lA on fine soils) as a split treaiment 30-
45 days before planting and the remainder at planting. Applications
made less than 30 days prior to planting may be as either a split or ;.

On medium- and iine-textured. sOils' with miniml!m- or no-tillage sys
tems in CT, DE, MA, MD, ME, MI, NH, NY, OH, PA, RI, VA, VT, and
WV, preplant surface applications may be applied following the <
directions for use above. If the amount of rainfall results in unsatis
factory length of weed control following the earlier treatment, a
postemergence application of an appropriately labeled broad leaf
and/or grass weed herbicide may be used, Le., AAtrex, Beacon®,
Bicep®, Exceed®, Accent@, Banvel, Basagran, bromoxynil
(Srominal® or Buctril®). or 2,4-D. If the postemergence treatment
includes the herbicide used preplant surface-applied, do not exceed
the total labeled rate for com on a given soil texture. Observe all
directions for use, precautions, and limitations on the label of the
postemergent herbicide.
2. PREPLANT INCORPORATED OR PREEMERGENCE
Follow instructions for use of Dual alone under Application Procedures.
On coarse soils, apply 1.5-2.0 pts.!A of Dual if organic matter content is
less than 3%, or 2.0 pts.!A if organic matter content is 3% or greater. On
medium soils, apply 2.0-2.5 pts.!A of Dual. On fine soils, apply 2.0-2.5
pts.!A of Dual if organic matter content is less than 3%, or 2.5-3.0 pts.!A if
organic matter content is 3% or greater.
Lay-by: To extend the duration of weed control in com, a maximum rate
of 3.0 ptsJA of Dual may be applied after corn emergence until the com
plants reach 40 inches in height, following any preplant surface-applied,
preplant incorporated, or preemergence herbicide application, including
Dual. For best results, applications should be made to soil free of
emerged weeds and directed towards the base of com plants in excess of
5 inches tall. The total Dual rate applied on com during anyone crop
year should not exceed 6.0 ptsJA, depending on soil texture.
Note for all applications to corn: To avoid possible illegal residues, do
not graze or feed forage from treated areas for 30 days following applica
tion.
Shattercane, Wild Proso Millet, Woolly Cupgrass, and Eclipta - Partial
Control: For more consistent partial control of shattercane, wild proso
millet, woolly cupgrass, or eclipta, apply 1.5-2.0 pts.! A of Dual preplant
incorporated followed by 1.5-2.0 ptsJA of Dual preemergence. Make the
preemergence application during or after planting, but before weeds and
com emerge. Apply the 2.0 ptsJA rate of Dual when a heavy infestation of
shattercane, wild proso millet, woolly cupgrass, or eclipta is expected. A
shallow cultivation may be needed to con"trol any late emerging weeds.
Woolly Cupgrass and Wild Proso Millet Control Program: For control
: of these species, use the following 3-step program:' (1) Apply Dual early ,
,', preplant, preplan! incorporated, or preemergence at 2.5 pts.!A on medium:
soils and 3.0 ptsJA on fine-textured soils up to the maximum label rate_

either a preplant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treat
ment on soils having an organic matter content between 6% and 20%.
(3) In the event of escape of annual weeds following a preplant surface,
preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment of Dual, follow with a
• postemergence application of an appropriatelY labeled broadleaf and/or
grass weed herbicide, i.e., Mtrex, Beacon, Bicep, Exceed, Accent,
Banvel, Basagran, Brominal, Buctril, or 2,4-D. If the postemergence
treatment includes the herbicide used in the earlier treatment, do not
exceed the total labeled rate for corn on a given soil texture. (4) Brominal
or Buctril may be applied postemergence alone or in tank-mix combina
tion with AAtrex. Do not exceed 1.2 Ibs. a.iJA of AAtrex in tank-mix com
bination with Brominal or Buctril postemergence. Refer to the Mtrex,
Brominal, and Buctrillabels for specific rates and precautions. (5) Do not
use Dual on peat or muck soils.
D. CORN - DUAL COMBINATIONS
Dual in any tank mixture for com (except Dual + AAtrex postemergence
and Dual + BanveI paste mergence) may be applied in water or fluid fertil
izer. Use only water in the Dual + Mtrex or the Dual + Banvel postemer
gence tank mixes.
Note: For all applications to corn, do not graze or feed forage from treat
ed areas for 30 days following application, or possible illegal residues
may result.
IMPORTANT: FOR TANK MIXTURES WITH AATREX (OR OTHER
BRANDS OF ATRAZINE) -If applying Dual in tank mixture with
AAtrex, all the restrictions and rate limitations on the AAtrex label
must be followed if more restrictive/protective than those on this
label. In addition, if AAtrex)s/must be applied at rates lower than
those recommended on this label, broadleaf weed control may be
affected. Refer to the AAtrex label for weeds controlled at the
reduced rates •.

In addition to the weeds controlled by Dual alone, Dual + AAtrex or
Princep, or Dual + AAtrex + Plincep, applied preplant surface, preplant
incorporated, or preemergence, also controls the following weeds:
browntop panicum, cocklebur, common purslane, hairy nightshade, lamb
squarters, momingglory, ragweed, smartweed, and velvetleaf.
Apply Dual + AAtrex or Princep, or Dual + AAtrex + Princep either pre
plant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence.
Preplant Surface-Applied: Follow instructions for use of Dual alone
under Application Procedures and under application instructions for
Dual alone on com. Apply Dual + AAtrex or Princ:ep, or Dual + AAtrex +

?) ~ Shattercane and Wild Pro;~ Millet"": Partial Control
)
For more consistent partial control of shattercane or wild proso millet,
where Dual is applied in tank mixture or sequentially with other registered
com herbicides, the following applications may be made:
1. Apply 1.5-2.0 pts.lA of Dual plus 2.0 Ibs. a.i.lA of AAtrex or Princep
preplant incorporated,followed by 1.5-2.0 pts.lA of Dual
preemergence. Make the preemergence application during or after
planting, but before weeds and corn emerge.
2. Apply Dual at 2.0 pts.lA alone or in tank-mix combination with up to
2.0 Ibs. a.i.!A of AAtrex, Princep, Bladex, or Extrazine II preplant
incorporated. Do not exceed the total rate of triazine herbicide
recommended in combination with Dual for com grown on a given
soil texture. Follow with a post-directed application of Evik® SOW at
2.5Ibs.lA. Refer to the Evik SOW label for specific directions for the
post-directed application.
3. Apply Eradicane® or Sutan® (or equivalent EPTC or butylate
formulations) at labeled rates preplant incorporated, followed by a
preemergence application of Dual at 1.5-2.0 pts.lA. Do not use
Eradicane or Sutan on soils where rapid degradation has been
shown to occur. Make the preemergence application during or after
planting, but before weeds and com emerge.
4. For partial control of wild proso millet only, apply Dual preemergence
at 1.5-2.0 pts.lA, followed by a postemergence application of Prowl
+ Bladex at labeled rates. Refer to the Prowl and Bladex labels for
application instructions.' Postemergence applications of Prowl and
Bladex may cause com injury:

F. COTTON - DUAL COMBINATIONS
1. TANK MIXTURE\VITH CAPAROL4L
Dual tank mixtures with Caparol 4L may be applied preplant incorporated
or preemergence in water or fluid fertilizer. When fluid fertilizer is used as
a carrier for Dual, either alone or in combination with Caparol 4L, mix only
the amount that will be sprayed in one operation. These mixtures should
not be allowed to stand without agitation. Only water may be used as a
carrier for postemergence-ciirected application.
In addition to those weeds controlled by Dual alone, Dual + Caparol 4L,
applied preplant incorporated or preemergence, also controls the follow
ing weeds: junglerice, wild oats, annual momingglory, groundcherry, hairy
nightshade, lambsquarters, malva, mustard, prickly sida (teaweed),
purslane, ragweed, and shallow-germinating seedlings of cocklebur and
coffeeweed. As a postemergence-directed application, Caparol provides
postemergence control and residual control of weeds on its label, while
Dual provides residual control of weed species on its label. Dual will not
control emerged weeds.
Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence: Apply Dual + Caparol 4L,
either preplant incorporated or preemergence, using the appropriate rate
from Table 5. Cotion should be planted below the zone of incorporation;
i.e., at least 1.0 inch on fine soils and 1.5 inches on coarse and medium
soils. If incorporated before planting, use a planter that will result in a
minimum of soil disturbance..

Precautions: (1) Do not apply Dual + Cotoran on sand or loamy sand
soils, or in areas where water is likely to "pond" over the bed, or crop
injury may occur. (2) To avoid concentration in the seed furrow, do not
make broadcast applications of Dual + Cotoran to cotton planted in
furrows more than 2 inches deep. Band applications may be made to
cotton planted in furrows deeper than 2 inches, but band width should not
exceed the width of the bottom of the furrow. (3) The use of Cotoran fol
lowing the use of a systemic insecticide at planting may result in crop
injury. (4) Do not use on Taloka silt loam, or crop injury may occur. (5) Do
not use in Gaines County, TX.
Refer to the Cotoran labels for further instructions, precautions, and limi
tations.
Note: To avoid possible illegal residues, do not feed treated forage or gin

Apply Dual, either incorPorated, preemergeric~,or aflerhillin9nay-by, •
according to directions specified below for, control of weeds listed under
the General Information section. Within a rate range, use' the lower rate
on soils relatively coarse~textured or low in organic matter; use the higher,
rate on soils relatively fine-textured or high in org~mic matter.
Effectiveness will be reduced if later cultural practices expose untreated
soil.
Incorpo~ated: Apply Dual at 1.5-3.0 ptsJA to the soil and inCOrPorate
into the top 3 inches before planting, using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling
cultivator, or similar implement. Planting and later cultural practices
should not bring untreated soil to the surface. Postplant incorporated
application may be made any time after planting to drag-off, but before
~ potato emergence. Use an implement that evenly distributes Dual in the
top 2 inches of soil. Do not damage potato seed pieces or sprouts with
incorporation equipment.
Preemergence: Apply Dual at 1.5-3.0 ptsJA, either after planting as a
preemergence, delayed preemergence, after drag-off or hilling treatment,
but before weeds emerge. Up to 4.0 ptsJA of Dual alone may be used
where soil organiC matter is between 6% and 20%.
After Hilling/Lay-by: Apply 2.5 ptsJA of Dual after hilling/at lay-by to
control Dual-sensitive species for remainder of the growing season. This
application will not control emerged weeds. It may be applied over a
previous Dual application, but do not apply more than 5.5 ptsJA of Dual in
a single crop season.
Precautions: (1) Do not use on muck or peat soils. If cool, wet soil condi
tions occur after application, Dual may delay maturity and/or reduce yield
of Superior and other early maturing potato varieties. To avoid crop injury,
(2) Do not use on sweet potatoes or yams; (3) Do not apply both as a
preemergence and an incorporated treatment; and (4) Do not use in Kern
County, CA.
Note: Potatoes treated with Dual should not be harvested within 60 days
after the at-planting to drag-off application, or within 40 days after a lay-by
application, or illegal residues may result.

APPENDIX A: COMPATIBILITY TEST.
Since liquid fertilizers can vary, even within the same analysis, always··
check compatibility with herbicide(s) each time before use. 8e espe
cially careful when using complete suspension or fluid fertilizers, as seri
ous compatibility problems are more likely to occur. Commercial applica
tion equipment may improve compatibility in some instances. The follow
ing test ¥sumes a spray volume of 25 gals'/A. For other spray volumes,
make appropriate changes in the ingredients. Check compatibility using
this procedure:
"i. Add 1.0 pt. of fertilizer to each of 2 one-qt. jars with tight Uds.
• 2. To one of the jars, add '/4 Isp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility
agent approved for this use, such as Compex or Unite ('/4 tsp. is
equivalent 102.0 pts./100 gals. spray). Shake or stir gently 10 mix.
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more
than one herbicide is used, add them separately with dry herbicides
first, flow abies next, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After each
addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix. The appropriate
amount of herbicides for this test follows:
4.
Dry herbicides: For each pound to be applied per acre, add 1.5
level teaspoons to each jar.
Liquid herbicides: For each pint to be applied per acre, add 0.5
teaspoon or 2.5 milliliters to each jar.
Note: For Dual tank mixtures with AAtrex + Princep, use '/3-1/z the
amount of AAtrex specified above and the remainder as Princep,
depending on whether the 1:2 or 1:1 ratio of AAtrex to Princep is to
be applied.
After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert each
jar 10 times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15 minutes and then look
for separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels, heavy oily film on the
jar, or other signs of incompatibility. Determine if the compatibility
agent is needed in the spray mixture by comparing the 2 jars. If
either mixture separates, but can be remixed readily, the mixture can
be sprayed as long as good agitation is used. If the mixtures are
incompatible, test the following methods of improving compatibility:
(A) slurry the dry herbicide(s) in water before addition, or (8) add .Iz
of the compatibility agent to the fertilizer and the other .Iz to the
emulsifiable concentrate or fJowable herbicide before addition to the
mixture. If incompatibility is still observed, do not use the mixture.

also be applied by air in combination with Balan, prowl or Treflan .. Avoid
application under conditions where uniform coverage cannot be obtained
or where excessive spray drift may occur. In order to assure that spray
will be controllable within the target area when used according to label
directions, make applications at a maximum height of 10 ft., using low
drift nozzles at a maximum pressure of 40 psi, and restrict application to
periods When wind speed does not exceed 10 mph. To assure that spray
will not adversely affect adjacent sensitive nontarget plants, apply Dual
alone or Dual + AAtrex by aircraft at a minimum upwind distance of 400 ft.
from sensitive plants, or apply Dual + Lexone, lorox, or Sencor at a mini
mum upwind distance of 300 ft. from sensitive plants .
. ;
Avoid application to humans or animals. Flagmen and loaders should
avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.
Aerial Drift Management
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the appli
cator. The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors
determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are
responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions.
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid
off-target drift movement from aerial applications to agricultural field
crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications, public
health uses or to applications using dry formulations.
1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not
exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or rotor.
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and
never be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they should be observed.
The applicator should be familiar with and take into account the informa
tion covered in the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information section
below.

Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information..
Information on Droplet Size
" • .'. p ••
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
provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger ,droplets reduces
drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly,
or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind, Temperature
and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions).
.\
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 noz
zles instead of increasing pressure.
• Number of nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide
uniform coverage.
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released
parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orienta
tions and is the recommended practice. Significant deflection from hor
izontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential.
• 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.
Boom length
For some use pattems, reducing the effective boom length to less than
3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reduc
ing swath width.
Application Height
Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above
the top of the largest plants u[1less a greater height is required for aircraft
safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces
exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind.

• - - 'q'
Swath Adjustment
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced
downward. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the, field, the
applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the pat/:1 of
the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase, with
increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc:).
Wind
Drift potdntial 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. Application should be avoided below 2 mph
due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. Note: local
terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar
_ with local wind pattems and how they affect spray draft.
Temperature and Humidity
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to
produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evapora
tion is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry.
Temperature Inversions
Applications shOUld not occur during a temperature inversion because
drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing,
which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated
cloud. This clood can move in unpredictable directions due to the light
variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are
characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common
on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to
form as the sun sets and often continue into the moming. Their presence
can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions
can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or
an aircraft smoke generator. 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.
Sensitive Areas
The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adja
cent sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water, known habi
tat for threatened or endange-red species, non-target crops) is minimal
(e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas) •

the crop and preemergence to weeds in crops where postemergence
applications are allowed on this label. Follow all restrictions (height, tim
ing, rate, etc.) to avoid illegal residues. Apply this product only through a
center pivot irrigation system. Do not apply this product through any
other typ'e of irrigation system. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal
pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of
treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact
State Extension specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts.
Do not connect an irrigation system (inCluding greenhouse systems) used
~ for pesticide application to a public water system, unless the pesticide
label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place. A
person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its
operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut
the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need
arise.
Operating Instructions
1. The system must contain a functional check-valve, vacuum relief
valve, and low-pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation
pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from backflow.
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic,
quick-closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the
injection pump.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, nor
mally Closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of
the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent
fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation
system is either automatically or manually shut down.
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automati
cally shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump
motor stops.
5. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure
switch which will stop the water pump motor when the water
pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is
adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displace
mentinjection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump or piston pump),
effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible
with pesticides and capable of being .fitted with a system interlock.

8. Prepare a mixture with a rriinimurriof1·p~rt()fv.ratei't() 1 part herbi- .
cide(s) and inject this mixture into the center pivot system. Injecting
a larger volume of a more dilute mixture per hour will usually provide
more accurate calibration of metering equipment. Maintain sufficient
agitation to keep the herbicide in suspension.

Apply in t12-1 inch of water. Use the lower water volume (112 inch) on
coarser-textured soils and the higher volume (1 inch) on fine
textured soils. More than 1 inch of water at application may reduce
weed control by moving the herbicide below the effective zone in the
soil. ."
Precaution for center pivot applications: Where sprinkler distribution pat
terns do not overlap sufficiently, unacceptable weed control may result.
Where sprinkler distribution patterns overlap excessively, crop injury may
result.

alone or selected Dual tank miXtures which are registered for preplant
incorporated or preplant surface application whic~,areusedtO,control«
weeds in crops on the Dual label arid are not prohibited'from use on dry
bulk granular fertilizers. "
When applying Dual or Dual mixtures with dry bulk granular fertilizers,
follow all directions for use and precautions on the respective, product
labels rSgarding target crops, rates per acre, soil texture, application
methods (including timing of application), and rotational crops.
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk granular fertilizer blend
ing, registration, labeling, and application are the responsibility of the
• individual anclfor company selling the herbicide/fertilizer mixture.
.t t '
"":--.: " '-,'
Prepare the herbicide/fertilizer mixtures by using any closed drum, belt,
ribbon, or other commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender. Nozzles used
to spray Dual and Dual mixtures onto the fertilizer must be placed to
provide uniform spray coverage. Care should be taken to aim the spray
directly onto the fertilizer only and to avoid spraying the walls of the
blender.
If the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is too wet, add a highly absorptive
material, such as Agsorb® or Celatom MP-79®, or similar granular clay or
diatomaceous earth materials, to obtain a dry, free-flowing mixture.
Absorptive materials should be added only after the herbicide has been
thoroughly blended into the fertilizer mixture. Best application results will
be obtained by using a granule of 6/30 particle size or of a size similar to
that of the fertilizer material being used. Generally, less than 2% by
weight of absorptive material will be needed. Avoid using more than 5%
absorptive material by weight.
Calculate amounts of Dual, AAtrex, AAtrex + Princep, Bladex, Extrazine II,
Princep, Sencor, Lexone, or Sonalan by the following formula:

Drying agents should not be used when using Aromatic 200. '
Notes: (1) Mixtures of Dual and Aromatic 200 mast be used on dry
fertilizer only. Poor results or crop injury may result if these mixtures are
used in "Yater or liquid fertilizer solutions for spraying applications.
(2) Wherf impregnating Dual in a blender before application, a drier
mixture can be attained by substituting a drying agent for Aromatic 200.
The use of Agsorb FG or drying agents of 6/30 particle size are
recommended_ (3) Drying agents are not recommended for use with the
On-The-Go impregnation equipment.
Precautions: To avoid potential for explosion, (1) Do not impregnate Dual
or Dual mixtures on ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodium
nitrate, either alone or in blends with other fertilizers. (2) Do not use Dual
or Dual mixtures on straight limestone, since absorption will not be
achieved. Fertilizer blends containing limestone can be impregnated.
Application
Apply 200-700 Ibs. of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture per acre. For best
results, apply the mixture uniformly to the soil with properly calibrated
equipment immediately after blending. Uniform application of the herbi
cide/fertilizer mixture is essential to prevent possible crop injury. Non
uniform application may also result in unsatisfactory weed control. In
areas where conventional tillage is practiced, a shallow incorporation of
the mixture into the soil may improve weed control. On fine- or medium
textured soils in areas where soil incorporation is not planned, i.e.,
reduced tillage situations or in soma conventional till situations, make
applications approximately 30 days before planting to allow moisture to
move the herbicide/fertilizer mixture into the soil. On coarse-textured
soils, make applications approximately 14 days prior to planting.
Precaution: To avoid crop injury, do not use the herbicide/fertilizer mixture
on crops where bedding occurs.
