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.

||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide is a systemic preemergence and postemergence herbicide for the
|
||
selective contact and residual control of broadleaf weeds in field corn, seed corn, yellow
|
||
popcorn, sweet corn, and other listed crops. When used preemergence, weeds take up
|
||
the product through the soil during emergence. Dry conditions following application
|
||
may reduce the preemergence activity of Callisto Herbicide. If an activating rain (0.25
|
||
inches) is not received within 7-10 days after a preemergence application, where
|
||
appropriate, rotary hoeing is suggested to activate the herbicide. When used
|
||
postemergence, susceptible weeds take up the herbicide through the treated foliage
|
||
and cease growth soon after application. Complete death of the weeds may take up to
|
||
2 weeks. The product is absorbed through the soil and/or by the foliage of emerged
|
||
weeds.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide is not effective for the control of most grass weeds. Preemergence
|
||
grass herbicides or postemergence grass herbicides can be tank mixed with Callisto
|
||
Herbicide to provide broad spectrum weed control in corn (see appropriate section of
|
||
label for this information). Callisto Herbicide can be applied postemergence following a
|
||
preemergence grass herbicide application. Callisto Herbicide can also be used in
|
||
combination with a burndown herbicide, prior to planting, to provide added burndown
|
||
and residual weed control in field corn, seed corn, yellow popcorn, and sweet corn.
|
||
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
MESOTRIONE GROUP
|
||
27 HERBICIDE
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, Callisto Herbicide is a Group 27 herbicide. Any weed
|
||
population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to Callisto Herbicide and
|
||
other Group 27 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate the weed population if
|
||
these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate resistance
|
||
management strategies should be followed.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 6
|
||
|
||
Naturally occurring biotypes of certain broadleaf weed species with resistance to
|
||
triazines, glyphosate, PPO, HPPD and ALS inhibiting herbicides are known to exist.
|
||
Performance of Callisto Herbicide is not affected by the presence of biotypes resistant
|
||
to triazines, glyphosate, PPO or ALS inhibiting herbicides.
|
||
|
||
To reduce the risk of weeds developing resistance to Callisto Herbicide in corn, always
|
||
use full labeled rates. If applying Callisto Herbicide postemergence after a mesotrione-
|
||
containing preemergence herbicide, always add atrazine as a tank mix partner. No
|
||
more than 0.24 lb of mesotrione active ingredient must be applied per acre of corn per
|
||
year (equivalent of 7.7 fl oz per acre per year of Callisto Herbicide). If additional
|
||
herbicide must be applied, it is recommended that a different mode of action be used,
|
||
i.e., other than an HPPD inhibitor (Group 27 Herbicide). Callisto Herbicide must be
|
||
applied at full label rates to help prevent selection for, or population shifts toward,
|
||
marginally resistant weed species and/or species biotypes.
|
||
|
||
Principles of Herbicide Resistant Weed Management
|
||
|
||
Scout and know your field
|
||
• Know weed species present in the field to be treated through scouting and field
|
||
history. An understanding of weed biology is useful in designing a resistance
|
||
management strategy. Ensure the weed management program will control all
|
||
weeds present.
|
||
• Fields should be scouted prior to application to determine species present and
|
||
growth stage. Always apply this herbicide at the full labeled rate and correct
|
||
timing for the weeds present in the field.
|
||
Utilize non-herbicidal practices to add diversity
|
||
• Use diversified management tactics such as cover crops, mechanical weed
|
||
control, harvest weed seed control, and crop rotation as appropriate.
|
||
Use good agronomic practices, start clean and stay clean
|
||
• Use good agronomic practices that enhance crop competitiveness.
|
||
• Plant into weed-free fields utilizing tillage or an effective burndown herbicide for
|
||
control of emerged weeds.
|
||
• Sanitize farm equipment to avoid spreading seed or vegetative propagules prior
|
||
to leaving fields.
|
||
Difficult to control weeds
|
||
• Fields with difficult to control weeds should be planted in rotation with crops that
|
||
allow the use of herbicides with an alternative mode of action or different
|
||
management practices.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 7
|
||
|
||
• Difficult to control weeds may require sequential applications, such as a broad
|
||
spectrum preemergence herbicide followed by one or more postemergence
|
||
herbicide applications. Utilize herbicides containing different modes of action
|
||
effective on the target weeds in sequential applications.
|
||
Do not overuse the technology
|
||
• Do not use more than two applications of this or any other herbicide with the
|
||
same mode of action in a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide
|
||
with a different mode of action which provides overlapping spectrum for the
|
||
difficult to control weeds.
|
||
Scout and inspect fields following application
|
||
• Prevent an influx of weeds into the field by controlling weeds in field borders.
|
||
• Scout fields after application to verify that the treatment was effective.
|
||
|
||
• Suspected- herbicide resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators
|
||
• Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at
|
||
the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
• A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species;
|
||
and
|
||
• Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
• Report non-performance of this product to your Syngenta retailer, Syngenta
|
||
representative, or call 1-866-Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). If resistance is
|
||
suspected ensure weed escapes are controlled using an herbicide with an
|
||
effective mode of action and/or use non-chemical means to prevent further seed
|
||
production.
|
||
Prevent weed escapes before, during, and after harvest
|
||
• Do not allow weed escapes to produce seed or vegetative structures such as
|
||
tubers or stolons which contribute to spread and survival. Consider harvest
|
||
weed seed management and control weeds post-harvest to prevent seed
|
||
production.
|
||
Resistant weeds
|
||
x Contact your local Syngenta representative, retailer, crop advisor or extension
|
||
agent to determine if weeds resistant to this mode of action are present in your
|
||
area. If resistant biotypes have been reported, use the full labeled rate of this
|
||
product, apply at the labeled timing, and tank-mix with a different mode of action
|
||
product so there are multiple effective modes of application for each suspected
|
||
resistant weed.
|
||
|
||
USE RESTRICTIONS
|
||
|
||

|
||
Page 8
|
||
|
||
|
||
Do not apply Callisto Herbicide to white popcorn or ornamental (Indian) corn.
|
||
|
||
Do not cultivate corn within 7 days before or after a Callisto Herbicide application as
|
||
weed control from the Callisto Herbicide application may be reduced.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system unless specified
|
||
otherwise under the specific crop section on the label.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply this product with suspension fertilizers as the carrier.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply Callisto Herbicide postemergence in a tank mix with emulsifiable
|
||
concentrate grass herbicides, unless specifically addressed under one of the tank mix
|
||
sections of this label, or injury may occur.
|
||
|
||
Do not use aerial application to apply Callisto Herbicide unless specified otherwise
|
||
under the specific crop section on the label.
|
||
|
||
USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||
|
||
Severe corn injury resulting in yield loss may occur if Callisto Herbicide is applied
|
||
postemergence to corn that was treated with Counter® or Lorsban®.
|
||
|
||
Severe corn injury resulting in yield loss may occur if Callisto Herbicide is applied foliar
|
||
postemergence to corn in a tank mix with any organophosphate or carbamate
|
||
insecticide.
|
||
|
||
Severe corn injury resulting in yield loss may occur if any organophosphate or
|
||
carbamate insecticide is applied foliar postemergence within 7 days before or 7 days
|
||
after Callisto Herbicide application.
|
||
|
||
When weeds are stressed due to drought, heat, lack of fertility, flooding, or prolonged
|
||
cool temperatures, control can be reduced or delayed since the weeds are not actively
|
||
growing. Weed escapes or regrowth may occur when application is made under
|
||
prolonged stress conditions. Optimum weed control will be obtained if an application of
|
||
Callisto Herbicide is made following label directions when weeds are actively growing.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied with pyrethroid type insecticides (e.g., Warrior®).

SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
|
||
|
||
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT.
|
||
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL
|
||
CONDITIONS.
|
||
|
||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||
|
||
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets
|
||
that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the
|
||
potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable
|
||
environmental conditions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||
x Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will
|
||
reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a
|
||
greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
|
||
x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to
|
||
produce the target spray volume and droplet size.
|
||
x Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application.
|
||
Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift.
|
||
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
x Adjust Nozzles – Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for setting up
|
||
nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel
|
||
with the airflow in flight.
|
||
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
|
||
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide
|
||
uniform coverage. For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop
|
||
and have minimal bounce.
|
||
|
||
RELEASE HEIGHT – Aircraft
|
||
|
||
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
|
||
|
||
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
|
||
|
||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using
|
||
shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition
|
||
of the spray on the target area.
|
||
|
||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 11
|
||
|
||
|
||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce
|
||
effects of evaporation.
|
||
|
||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are
|
||
characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
|
||
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated
|
||
by ground fog or 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.
|
||
|
||
WIND
|
||
|
||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed.
|
||
|
||
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect
|
||
spray drift.
|
||
|
||
WINDBLOWN SOIL PARTICLES
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide has the potential to move off-site due to wind erosion. Soils that are
|
||
subject to wind erosion usually have a high silt and/or fine to very fine sand fractions
|
||
and low organic matter content. Other factors which can affect the movement of
|
||
windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing winds, vegetative cover,
|
||
site slope, rainfall, and drainage patterns. Avoid applying Callisto Herbicide if prevailing
|
||
local conditions may be expected to result in off-site movement.
|
||
|
||
Sensitive Areas
|
||
|
||
The pesticide must only be applied 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 blowing away from
|
||
the sensitive areas).
|
||
|
||
APPLICATION INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
PREEMERGENCE GROUND APPLICATION
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide preemergence with a carrier volume of 10-60 gal/A.
|
||
|
||
Spray nozzles must be uniformly spaced, the same size and type, and must provide
|
||
accurate and uniform application. Use spray nozzles that provide medium to coarse
|
||
droplet size to provide good coverage and avoid drift. Apply in a spray volume of 10-60
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 12
|
||
|
||
gal/A using water or liquid fertilizer (excluding suspension fertilizers) as the carrier. Use
|
||
a pump that can maintain a pressure of at least 35-40 psi at the nozzles and provide
|
||
proper agitation within the tank to keep the product dispersed. Lower pressures may be
|
||
used with extended range or drift reduction nozzles.
|
||
|
||
Always ensure that agitation is maintained until spraying is completed, even if stopped
|
||
for brief periods of time. If the agitation is stopped for more than 5 minutes, resuspend
|
||
the spray solution by running on full agitation prior to spraying.
|
||
|
||
POSTEMERGENCE GROUND APPLICATION
|
||
|
||
Spray nozzles must be uniformly spaced, the same size and type, and must provide
|
||
accurate and uniform application. Use spray nozzles that provide medium to coarse
|
||
droplet size to provide good coverage and avoid drift. Good weed coverage is essential
|
||
for optimum weed control. Boom height for broadcast over-the-top applications must be
|
||
based on the height of the crop – at least 15 inches above the crop canopy.
|
||
|
||
Apply in a spray volume of 10-30 gal/A using water as a carrier. Use a pump that can
|
||
maintain a pressure of at least 35-40 psi at the nozzles and provide proper agitation
|
||
within the tank to keep the product dispersed. Lower pressures may be used with
|
||
extended range or drift reduction nozzles. When weed foliage is dense, use a minimum
|
||
of 20 gal/A.
|
||
|
||
Flat fan nozzles of 80q or 110q are recommended for optimum postemergence
|
||
coverage. Do not use floodjet nozzles or controlled droplet application equipment for
|
||
postemergence applications.
|
||
|
||
Nozzles may be angled forward 45q to enhance penetration of the crop and provide
|
||
better coverage. Ensure that all in-line strainer and nozzle screens in the sprayer are
|
||
50-mesh or coarser.
|
||
|
||
Always ensure that agitation is maintained until spraying is completed, even if stopped
|
||
for brief periods of time. If the agitation is stopped for more than 5 minutes, resuspend
|
||
the spray solution by running on full agitation prior to spraying.

|
||
SPRAY ADDITIVES
|
||
|
||
POSTEMERGENCE ADJUVANTS
|
||
|
||
When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, the use of an adjuvant that meets the
|
||
standards of the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) adjuvant
|
||
certification program is recommended.
|
||
|
||
The following adjuvant recommendations are intended primarily for Callisto Herbicide
|
||
use in corn. Refer to the use directions section of each crop section for specific adjuvant
|
||
recommendations.
|
||
|
||
POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS TO FIELD CORN AND SEED CORN
|
||
|
||
For postemergence applications made after the crop has emerged, add crop oil
|
||
concentrate (COC) to the spray solution at the rate of 1.0 gal/100 gal of water (1.0%
|
||
v/v). The use of a nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 1 qt/100 gallons of water (0.25% v/v)
|
||
instead of COC is allowed, but the weed control achieved with COC is consistently
|
||
better than NIS. The use of methylated seed oil (MSO) adjuvants or MSO blend
|
||
adjuvants for postemergence applications of Callisto Herbicide may cause severe
|
||
crop injury to occur. Do not use MSO adjuvants for postemergence use unless
|
||
directed for a specific tank mix under the CALLISTO HERBICIDE TANK
|
||
MIXTURES FOR CORN section of this label, or unless permitted by a
|
||
supplemental Callisto Herbicide label. In addition to COC, always add spray grade
|
||
UAN (e.g., 28-0-0) to the spray solution at a rate of 2.5% (v/v) or AMS at 8.5 lb/100 gal
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 14
|
||
|
||
of spray solution, except if precluded elsewhere on this label or by a supplemental
|
||
Callisto Herbicide label.
|
||
|
||
POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS TO SWEET CORN AND YELLOW POPCORN
|
||
|
||
Do not add UAN or AMS when making postemergence applications of Callisto
|
||
Herbicide to yellow popcorn or sweet corn, or severe crop injury may occur.
|
||
|
||
For postemergence applications to yellow popcorn and sweet corn, the use of a
|
||
nonionic surfactant (NIS) instead of a crop oil concentrate (COC) is recommended, so
|
||
as to minimize the risk of crop injury. A COC may be used, and will increase the level of
|
||
weed control achieved, especially under dry growing conditions, but the risk of crop
|
||
injury is increased significantly under lush growing conditions. For optimum control, the
|
||
addition of atrazine is recommended wherever rotational or local atrazine restrictions
|
||
allow.
|
||
|
||
PREEMERGENCE ADJUVANTS
|
||
|
||
For Callisto Herbicide preplant or preemergence applications, and where weeds are
|
||
present, the use of any adjuvant for agricultural use is permitted. In these situations,
|
||
MSO type adjuvants are typically better than COC type adjuvants, which are typically
|
||
better than NIS type adjuvants for enhancing weed control. UAN or AMS can be added
|
||
and typically provides better weed control than not adding one of these. It is the
|
||
pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended
|
||
use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on
|
||
all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive
|
||
directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.

SPRAY EQUIPMENT
|
||
|
||
Cleaning Equipment After Callisto Herbicide Application
|
||
|
||
Special attention must be given to cleaning equipment before spraying a crop other than
|
||
corn. Mix only as much spray solution as needed.
|
||
|
||
1. Flush tank, hoses, boom, and nozzles with clean water.
|
||
|
||
2. Prepare a cleaning solution of 1 gal of household ammonia per 25 gal of water.
|
||
Many commercial spray tank cleaners may be used.
|
||
|
||
3. Use a pressure washer to clean the inside of the spray tank with this solution.
|
||
Take care to wash all parts of the tank, including the inside top surface. If a
|
||
pressure washer is not available, completely fill the sprayer with the cleaning
|
||
solution to ensure contact of the cleaning solution with all internal surfaces of the
|
||
tank and plumbing. Start agitation in the sprayer and thoroughly recirculate the
|
||
cleaning solution for at least 15 minutes. All visible deposits must be removed
|
||
from the spraying system.
|
||
|
||
4. Flush hoses, spray lines, and nozzles for at least 1 minute with the cleaning
|
||
solution.
|
||
|
||
5. Dispose of rinsate from steps 1-4 in an appropriate manner.
|
||
|
||
6. Repeat steps 2-5.
|
||
|
||
7. Remove nozzles, screens, and strainers and clean separately in the ammonia
|
||
solution after completing the above procedures.
|
||
|
||
8. Rinse the complete spraying system with clean water.
|
||
|
||
MIXING PROCEDURES
|
||
|
||
Refer to the Crop Use Directions sections of this label for tank mixes.
|
||
|
||
Always refer to labels of other pesticide products for mixing directions and precautions
|
||
which may differ from those outlined here. Use in accordance with the most restrictive
|
||
of label limitations and precautions. No label dosage rates may be exceeded. This
|
||
product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such
|
||
mixing. Do not tank mix Callisto
|
||
Herbicide with any other insecticide, fungicide, fertilizer
|
||
solution, or adjuvant not recommended on the label without testing compatibility, as
|
||
poor mixing may result. It is recommended that the compatibility of any tank mix
|
||
combination be tested on a small scale such as a jar test before actual tank mixing. It is
|
||
the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 16
|
||
|
||
intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions
|
||
for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most
|
||
restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank
|
||
mixture.
|
||
|
||
Follow the mixing instructions for adding Callisto
|
||
Herbicide to the spray tank:
|
||
|
||
1. Only use sprayers in good running condition with good agitation. Ensure the
|
||
sprayer is cleaned according to instructions on the label of the product used prior
|
||
to Callisto
|
||
Herbicide. For postemergence applications, use only clean water for
|
||
the spray solution. Ensure that all in-line strainer and nozzle screens in the
|
||
sprayer are 50-mesh or coarser. Do not use screens finer than 50-mesh.
|
||
|
||
2. Liquid fertilizer (excluding suspension fertilizers) may be used as the carrier for
|
||
preemergence applications.
|
||
|
||
3. Begin to fill sprayer tank or premix tank with clean water and engage agitator.
|
||
Agitation must be continued throughout the entire mixing and spraying
|
||
procedure.
|
||
|
||
4. When the sprayer or premix tank is half full of water, add AMS and agitate until
|
||
completely dispersed.
|
||
|
||
5. Next add Callisto
|
||
Herbicide slowly and agitate until completely dissolved. Wait at
|
||
least 1 minute after the last of the Callisto Herbicide has been added to the tank
|
||
to allow for complete dispersion. A longer agitation period may be required to
|
||
disperse Callisto Herbicide when using cold water from sources such as deep
|
||
drilled wells.
|
||
|
||
6. If tank mixing, add the tank mix product next.
|
||
|
||
7. Finally, add adjuvant and UAN, if needed, and then continue to fill tank to desired
|
||
level with water.
|
||
|
||
WEEDS CONTROLLED
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide applied as directed in this label will control or partially control the
|
||
weeds listed in Tables 1 and 2.
|
||
|
||
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean
|
||
erratic control (good to poor) or consistent control at a level below that generally
|
||
considered acceptable for commercial weed control.
|
||
|
||
For best postemergence results, apply Callisto Herbicide to actively growing weeds.
|
||
Dry weather following preemergence application of Callisto Herbicide may reduce
|
||
residual weed control effectiveness. If irrigation is available, apply ½ to 1 inch of water
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 17
|
||
|
||
after preemergence application. If irrigation is not available, a uniform shallow
|
||
cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds emerge.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide applied alone or in mixture with atrazine will not provide consistent or
|
||
effective control of weeds identified as resistant to postemergence HPPD inhibiting
|
||
herbicides.
|
||
|
||
Refer to the crop sections on this label for specific rates and use directions.

CROP USE DIRECTIONS
|
||
|
||
CORN
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied by ground for preemergence or postemergence weed
|
||
control in field corn, seed corn, yellow popcorn, and sweet corn.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may also be applied aerially for preemergence or postemergence
|
||
weed control only in the following states: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California,
|
||
Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana,
|
||
Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,
|
||
Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New
|
||
Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma,
|
||
Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee,
|
||
Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
|
||
|
||
Refer to seed company directions for use on field corn inbred lines. Special adjuvant
|
||
restrictions must be followed for postemergence applications of Callisto Herbicide in
|
||
yellow popcorn or sweet corn (see the SPRAY ADDITIVES section of this label). Do
|
||
not apply Callisto Herbicide to white popcorn or ornamental (Indian) corn.
|
||
|
||
Postemergence applications (after crop emergence) of Callisto Herbicide may cause
|
||
crop bleaching in some yellow popcorn and sweet corn hybrids. Crop bleaching is
|
||
typically transitory and has no effect on final yield or quality. However, herbicide
|
||
sensitivity in yellow popcorn and sweet corn varies widely, and all yellow popcorn and
|
||
sweet corn hybrids have not been tested. Contact your popcorn or sweet corn
|
||
company, Fieldman, or University Specialist about hybrid recommendations before
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 24
|
||
|
||
making a postemergence application of Callisto Herbicide to yellow popcorn or sweet
|
||
corn. Do not include nitrogen based adjuvants (UAN or AMS) when making
|
||
postemergence applications of Callisto Herbicide to yellow popcorn or sweet corn.
|
||
|
||
Temporary crop response (transient bleaching) from postemergence applications to
|
||
field corn may occur under extreme weather conditions or when the crop is suffering
|
||
from stress. Field corn quickly outgrows these effects and develops normally.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply more than a total of 7.7 fl oz (0.24 lb mesotrione active ingredient) of
|
||
Callisto Herbicide per acre per year. Do not make more than 2 applications of Callisto
|
||
Herbicide per year. Do not exceed 3.0 fl oz (0.094 lb ai/A) in a single postemergence
|
||
application. Do not make the second application of Callisto Herbicide within 14 days of
|
||
the first application.
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide for the control of broadleaf and grass weeds listed in Tables 1
|
||
and 2. Corn may be treated up to 30 inches tall or up to the 8-leaf stage of corn growth.
|
||
Do not feed or harvest forage, grain, or stover within 45 days after application.
|
||
|
||
CALLISTO HERBICIDE USED ALONE – POSTEMERGENCE
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide at 3.0 fl oz/A per application. Always add an appropriate
|
||
adjuvant to the spray tank (see the SPRAY ADDITIVES section of this label).
|
||
|
||
For best results, apply Callisto Herbicide to actively growing weeds. For a list of weeds
|
||
controlled see Table 1. Susceptible weeds which emerge soon after application of
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be controlled after they absorb the herbicide from the soil.
|
||
Callisto Herbicide will not control most grass weeds.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
Two postemergence applications of Callisto Herbicide may be made with the following
|
||
restrictions.
|
||
|
||
x Only one postemergence application may be made if Callisto Herbicide has been
|
||
applied preemergence. Do not exceed a total of two applications per year. Do not
|
||
exceed a total of 7.7 fl oz/A (0.24 lb ai/A) of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
x Do not make the second application within 14 days of the first application.
|
||
|
||
x Application of Callisto Herbicide at rates less than 3.0 fl oz/A (0.094 lb ai/A)
|
||
postemergence may result in incomplete weed control and loss of residual control.
|
||
|
||
x Do not exceed a total of 6.0 fl oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) for the two postemergence
|
||
applications.
|
||
|
||
x If Callisto Herbicide is applied postemergence to ground that received a
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 25
|
||
|
||
preemergence application of a mesotrione-containing herbicide, atrazine must be
|
||
tank mixed with Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
x If atrazine is mixed with Callisto Herbicide, do not apply to corn that is more than 12
|
||
inches in height.
|
||
|
||
x Corn may be treated up to 30 inches tall or up to the 8-leaf stage of corn growth. Do
|
||
not harvest forage, grain, or stover within 45 days after application.
|
||
|
||
CALLISTO HERBICIDE USED ALONE – PREEMERGENCE
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide alone at 6.0-7.7 fl oz/A (0.188-0.24 lb ai/A) by ground sprayers
|
||
in a spray volume of 10-30 gal of water (up to 80 gal if applied with liquid fertilizers) per
|
||
acre for broadleaf weed control. For a list of weeds controlled, refer to Table 2. Callisto
|
||
Herbicide may be tank mixed with preemergence grass herbicides for grass control.
|
||
Refer to the tank mix section for a list of partners.
|
||
|
||
CALLISTO HERBICIDE TANK MIXTURES FOR CORN
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be tank mixed with other registered herbicides for improved
|
||
spectrum of weed control in burndown, preemergence or postemergence applications.
|
||
Additionally these tank mixtures can be used to include a different mode of action
|
||
herbicide to help control or manage the development of resistant weed biotypes.
|
||
|
||
Burndown Tank Mixtures in Corn
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied in tank mixture with other registered herbicides for
|
||
burndown plus residual weed control.
|
||
|
||
For improved broadleaf weed control with limited residual control prior to planting corn
|
||
and before corn emergence, apply Callisto Herbicide at 3.0 fl oz/A in tank mixes with
|
||
Gramoxone® brands, glyphosate brands, dicamba brands (e.g. Banvel®) and/or 2,4-D.
|
||
For greater residual control, use 6.0-7.7 fl oz/A of Callisto Herbicide (see Table 2) with
|
||
the above products. Use the adjuvant system recommended by the burndown
|
||
herbicide. Refer to individual product labels for precautionary statements, restrictions,
|
||
rates, approved uses, and a list of weeds controlled. It is the pesticide user’s
|
||
responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and
|
||
follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product
|
||
labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use
|
||
and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Tank Mixtures in Corn
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied at a rate of 5.3-7.7 fl oz/A in tank mixture with other

ASPARAGUS
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied broadcast or banded at a rate of 3.0-7.7 fl oz/A to
|
||
asparagus as a spring application prior to spear emergence, as a post-harvest
|
||
application (after final harvest), or both.
|
||
|
||
Use the 3.0 fl oz/A rate for postemergence control or partial control of the emerged
|
||
weeds listed in Table 1. Use the 6.0-7.7 fl oz/A rate for preemergence control or partial
|
||
control of the weeds listed in Table 2. For banded applications, the application must be
|
||
made to account for band width, i.e. to deliver 3.0-7.7 fl oz per treated acre. For the
|
||
best preemergence weed control with spring applications, Callisto Herbicide must be
|
||
applied after fern mowing, disking or other tillage operation but prior to asparagus spear
|
||
emergence.
|
||
|
||
When making post-harvest applications, the rate applied preemergence in the spring
|
||
must be taken into account so as not to exceed the 7.7 fl oz/A/year rate limit. Post-
|
||
harvest applications must be made in a way that minimizes contact with any standing
|
||
asparagus spears or ferns and maximizes contact with the weeds and/or soil, e.g. by
|
||
using a directed or semi-directed type application, or crop injury may occur. With post-
|
||
harvest applications, the use of an adjuvant will increase the risk of crop injury.
|
||
|
||
If weeds are emerged at the time of the Callisto Herbicide application, the addition of a
|
||
crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at the rate of 1% v/v or a nonionic surfactant
|
||
(NIS) at the rate of 0.25% v/v is recommended. In addition to COC or NIS, a spray
|
||
grade UAN (e.g. 28-0-0) at the rate of 2.5% v/v or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at the rate
|
||
of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray solution may be added for improved burndown of emerged
|
||
weeds. If weeds have not yet emerged, no adjuvant is recommended.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not apply more than 7.7 fl oz/A (0.24 lb ai/A) of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not make more than two Callisto Herbicide applications per year.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide

|
||
3. Do not make the second application within 14 days of the first application.
|
||
|
||
BLUEGRASS, RYEGRASS (ANNUAL AND PERENNIAL) AND TALL FESCUE
|
||
GROWN FOR SEED
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied to bluegrass, annual ryegrass, perennial ryegrass, or
|
||
tall fescue which is grown for seed. Callisto Herbicide can be applied as a
|
||
preemergence application to bare soil (new seeding) or as a postemergence application
|
||
to an emerged grass crop.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Application: Apply Callisto Herbicide as a broadcast, surface spray at
|
||
a rate of 6.0 fl oz/A to a newly seeded crop. The Callisto Herbicide application must be
|
||
made prior to crop and weed emergence. Rainfall or irrigation as the newly seeded
|
||
grass crop emerges from the soil may increase the risk of injury from Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
Grass crop injury symptoms include temporary bleaching of newly emerged leaves, or
|
||
in extreme conditions, stunting. For a list of preemergence weeds controlled or partially
|
||
controlled see Table 2. In addition to the weeds listed in Table 2, Callisto Herbicide
|
||
applied preemergence will control mannagrass.
|
||
|
||
Postemergence Application: Apply Callisto Herbicide as a broadcast postemergence
|
||
spray at a rate of 3.0-6.0 fl oz/A to emerged bluegrass, perennial ryegrass or tall fescue
|
||
grown for seed. Use the 3.0 fl oz/A rate for postemergence control or partial control of
|
||
the weeds listed in Table 1. In addition to the weeds listed in Table 1, Callisto Herbicide
|
||
applied postemergence will control mannagrass (up to 3 tillers).
|
||
|
||
Use the 6.0 fl oz/A rate for postemergence weed control plus extended residual weed
|
||
control (see Table 1). The addition of a crop oil concentrate type adjuvant at 1% v/v or
|
||
a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate of 0.25% v/v is recommended.
|
||
Postemergence applications of Callisto Herbicide may result in temporary bleaching of
|
||
the grass crop.
|
||
|
||
In addition to COC or NIS, a spray grade UAN (e.g. 28-0-0) at the rate of 2.5% v/v or
|
||
ammonium sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray solution may also be
|
||
added for improved control of emerged weeds. The addition of UAN or AMS will
|
||
improve consistency of postemergence weed control but will also increase the risk of
|
||
grass crop injury, especially at Callisto Herbicide rates greater than 3.0 fl oz/A. If grass
|
||
crop injury is a concern, do not add UAN or AMS to the spray solution.
|
||
|
||
Tank mixing other pesticides with Callisto Herbicide postemergence may increase the
|
||
risk of crop injury. Avoid adding pesticides with emulsifiable concentrate (EC) type
|
||
formulations to Callisto Herbicide for applications made postemergence to the crop.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not harvest the grass crop for seed or straw within 60 days following the
|
||
application of Callisto Herbicide.

listed below along with use directions for that crop. If Callisto Herbicide is used on bush
|
||
or caneberries not listed below, severe crop injury may occur.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied as a pre-bloom post-directed spray in high bush
|
||
blueberry, lingonberry, red currant, black currant, black raspberry, red raspberry, and
|
||
blackberry. For a list of weeds controlled see Tables 1 and 2. Callisto Herbicide may
|
||
be applied in bush or caneberries at a rate up to 6 fl oz/A. If a split application weed
|
||
control program is desired, 3 fl oz/A followed by 3 fl oz/A may be used. The use of a
|
||
crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at the rate of 1% v/v is recommended, but
|
||
avoid using COC adjuvants that are injurious to bush or caneberry leaves.
|
||
|
||
In low bush blueberries, Callisto Herbicide may only be applied in the non-bearing year.
|
||
This application may be a broadcast application. Up to 6 fl oz/A of Callisto Herbicide

Precautions
|
||
|
||
1. To avoid crop injury, apply the spray to the grove or orchard floor and to the
|
||
weeds, avoiding contact with crop foliage, stems or fruit. Contact of Callisto
|
||
Herbicide with the crop may result in bleaching injury that is typically temporary.
|
||
Use trunk guards to protect plants until adequate bark has developed.
|
||
|
||
2. Specified rates are based on broadcast treatment. For band applications around
|
||
trees in fruit or nut plantings, reduce the broadcast rate of Callisto Herbicide and
|
||
carrier per acre in proportion to the area actually sprayed. (See Banded
|
||
Applications Section.)
|
||
|
||
3. Application of Callisto Herbicide in nectarine, plum or tree nuts grown in coarse
|
||
soils may cause bleaching, especially when applied during time of heavy water
|
||
use and root growth such as during bud break or rapid shoot expansion.

Restrictions
|
||
|
||
1. Callisto Herbicide can only be applied in pome fruit, stone fruit and nut trees that
|
||
have been established for one full growing season and are in good health and
|
||
vigor. Callisto Herbicide can be applied in citrus trees or citrus tree plantings that
|
||
are less than 12 months old and are exhibiting normal growth and vigor.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not apply in orchards that are stressed due to poor weather or other abiotic
|
||
factors.
|
||
|
||
3. Do not exceed a total of 12 fl oz per acre (0.376 lb ai/A) of Callisto Herbicide per
|
||
year or in a 12-month period.
|
||
|
||
4. Do not exceed 6 fl oz per acre (0.19 lb ai/A) of Callisto Herbicide for the first
|
||
application.
|
||
|
||
5. Do not exceed 3 applications per year or in a 12-month period.
|
||
|
||
6. Allow at least 12 weeks between applications of Callisto Herbicide at 6 fl oz/A
|
||
and at least 6 weeks between applications of 6 fl oz/A and subsequent

Spray Additives
|
||
|
||
For application to emerged weeds, the use of crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant
|
||
at 1% v/v or non-ionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v is recommended. Addition of
|
||
ammonium sulfate or other nitrogen-based adjuvants will increase efficacy when used in
|
||
combination with COC or NIS. For more information see Spray Additives section on this
|
||
label.

When applying a row or banded treatment of Callisto Herbicide, the following formula
|
||
may be used to calculate the amount per acre:
|
||
|
||
band width in inches
|
||
X broadcast rate per acre = Amount needed per acre of field row width in inches
|
||
|
||
Tank Mix Instructions
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be mixed and applied in combination with most commonly used
|
||
herbicides registered for use in the approved crops in order to expand the
|
||
postemergence (Gramoxone brands, glyphosate brands, Rely® 280 or GoalTender®) or
|
||
residual (Princep®, Solicam®, Matrix®, Surflan®, GoalTender, Prowl H
|
||
2O, Karmex®,
|
||
Hyvar®, Krovar® or Alion®) weed control spectrum. These tank mixtures can be used
|
||
to help control or manage the development of resistant weeds. The application of
|
||
mixtures or sequences of effective herbicides, with different sites of action, can provide
|
||
the diversity needed for management of herbicide resistance.
|
||
|
||
Refer to individual product labels for precautionary statements, restrictions, rates,
|
||
approved uses and a list of weeds controlled. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to
|
||
ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the
|
||
applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels
|
||
involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and
|
||
precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||
Weed Control (Table 1 and 2)
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide provides both postemergence and preemergence control of
|
||
susceptible weeds. Best control is obtained if postemergence applications are made
|
||
before weeds reach 5 inches in height (Table 1) or before germination of seed for
|
||
preemergence control (Table 2). Rainfall or irrigation soon after application will
|
||
enhance preemergence activity.
|
||
|
||
Use Directions
|
||
|
||
Apply as a directed or shielded spray. Avoid contact with trunk surfaces, fruit or crop
|
||
foliage. Do not apply when nuts or fruits are on the ground at harvest. Ensure that the
|
||
soil is settled, firm and relatively free of debris at time of application. Also ensure that
|
||
the soil is free of depressions around trees where rain or irrigation water can
|
||
concentrate. Apply the first application of Callisto Herbicide in late fall/early winter or
|
||
spring and subsequent applications utilizing one of the programs noted in the Table 6.

For optimum postemergence weed control, apply Callisto Herbicide to actively growing
|
||
weeds in tank mixture with burndown herbicides such as: Gramoxone brands,
|
||
glyphosate brands, Rely 280 or GoalTender before weeds exceed 5 inches in height.
|
||
|
||
For effective residual weed control, Callisto Herbicide must be moved into the weed
|
||
seed germination zone. For preemergence weed control, apply Callisto Herbicide
|
||
before rainfall or irrigation. For optimum residual control Callisto Herbicide can be tank
|
||
mixed with herbicides such as: Princep, Solicam, Matrix, Goal Tender, Prowl, Karmex,
|
||
Hyvar, Krovar or Alion, where approved for use.
|
||
|
||
Subsequent application(s) of Callisto Herbicide can be made alone or in tank mixture,
|
||
with the herbicides noted above, if weed emergence occurs.
|
||
|
||
Refer to individual product labels for precautionary statements, restrictions, rates,
|
||
approved uses and a list of weeds controlled.
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide in a spray volume of 10-40 gal/A.
|
||
|
||
Refer to individual product labels for precautionary statements, restrictions, rates,
|
||
approved uses and a list of weeds controlled. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to
|
||
ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the
|
||
applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels
|
||
involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and
|
||
precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.

||
|
||
CRANBERRY
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied at a rate up to 8 fl oz/A to bearing or non-bearing
|
||
cranberry beds for control or suppression of bog St. John’s wort (Hypericum boreala),
|
||
rushes (Juncus canadensis, J. effuses, J. bufonlus, J. tenuis), sedges spp. (Carex spp.),
|
||
yellow loosestrife (Lysimachia terrestris) and silverleaf (Potentilla pacifica) in addition to
|
||
the weeds listed in Tables 1 and 2. Callisto may be applied in cranberries at a rate up
|
||
to 8 fl oz/A. The use of a crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at 1% v/v or non-
|
||
ionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v is recommended. Avoid using COC adjuvants that
|
||
are injurious to cranberry leaves. In non-bearing cranberries, make the Callisto
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 36
|
||
|
||
Herbicide application(s) after the bud break stage, but not less than 45 days before
|
||
flooding in fall or winter. In bearing cranberries, make the Callisto Herbicide
|
||
application(s) after the bud break stage, but not less than 45 days prior to flooding or
|
||
harvest.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied through irrigation systems (chemigation) including
|
||
center pivot or solid set.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not make more than two applications of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not apply more than 16 fl oz/A (0.5 lb ai/A) in total per year.
|
||
|
||
3. If two applications are made, they must be made no closer than 14 days apart.
|
||
|
||
Chemigation – Sprinkler Irrigation Application for Cranberry Only
|
||
|
||
Check the irrigation system to ensure uniform application of water to all areas.
|
||
Thorough coverage of foliage is required for good control. Good agitation in the
|
||
pesticide supply tank should be maintained prior to and during the entire application
|
||
period. Apply by injecting the specified rate of Callisto Herbicide into the irrigation
|
||
system using a metering device that will introduce a constant flow and by distributing
|
||
the product to the target areas in 0.1-0.2 acre-inch of water. In general, use the least
|
||
amount of water in this range required for proper distribution and coverage.
|
||
|
||
Once the application is completed, flush the entire irrigation and injection system with
|
||
clean water before stopping the system. In addition to the above directions, if
|
||
application is being made during a normal irrigation set of a stationary sprinkler, the
|
||
specified rate of Callisto Herbicide for the area covered should be injected into the
|
||
system only during the end of the irrigation set for sufficient time to provide adequate
|
||
coverage and product distribution.
|
||
|
||
Chemigation Use Directions – Sprinkler Irrigation Application
|
||
|
||
1. Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot
|
||
or solid set. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.
|
||
|
||
2. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can
|
||
result from nonuniform distribution of treated water.
|
||
|
||
3. If you have any questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension
|
||
Service Specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts.
|
||
|
||
4. Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for
|
||
pesticide application to a public water system. Public water system means a
|
||
system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 37
|
||
|
||
such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average
|
||
of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.
|
||
|
||
5. 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.
|
||
|
||
6. 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 back-flow.
|
||
|
||
7. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-
|
||
closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
|
||
|
||
8. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally 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.
|
||
|
||
9. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off
|
||
the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
|
||
|
||
10. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which
|
||
will stop the water pump motor when pressure decreases to the point where
|
||
pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
|
||
11. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection
|
||
pump (e.g. diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials
|
||
that are compatible with pesticides and are capable of being fitted with a system
|
||
interlock.
|
||
|
||
12. Any alternatives to the above required safety devices must conform to the list of
|
||
EPA approved alternative devices.
|
||
|
||
13. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for
|
||
treatment or nonuniform distribution of treated water.
|

|
||
FLAX
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied preemergence in flax, i.e. after planting but before
|
||
crop emergence, at a rate up to 6 fl oz/A. For a list of weeds controlled see Tables 1
|
||
and 2. If weeds are emerged at the time of application, the use of a crop oil
|
||
concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at the rate of 1% v/v is recommended. In addition, a
|
||
spray grade UAN (e.g., 28-0-0) at the rate of 2.5% (v/v) or AMS at the rate of 8.5 lb/100
|
||
gal of spray solution may be added to improve the burndown of existing weeds.
|
||
Applications of Callisto Herbicide to emerged flax can result in severe crop injury.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not make more than one application of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not apply more than 6 fl oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) per year in flax.
|
||
|
||
|
||
OATS
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied preemergence or postemergence (but not both) for
|
||
weed control in oats.
|
||
|
||
For preemergence control or partial control of the weeds listed in Table 2, apply Callisto
|
||
Herbicide broadcast at a rate of 6.0 fl oz/A prior to oat emergence. For best
|
||
preemergence weed control, the Callisto Herbicide application must be made prior to
|
||
weed emergence.
|
||
|
||
For postemergence (after oat emergence) control or partial control of the weeds listed in
|
||
Table 1, apply Callisto Herbicide at a rate of 3.0 fl oz/A. For best results, Callisto
|
||
Herbicide must be applied to emerged weeds that are less than 5” tall. Postemergence
|
||
applications of Callisto Herbicide may result in temporary injury of the oat crop. Injury
|
||
symptoms may include leaf bleaching, leaf burn and in extreme conditions, stunting.
|
||
|
||
If emerged weeds are present at the time of the Callisto Herbicide application, the
|
||
addition of a crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at a rate of 1% v/v or a nonionic
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 39
|
||
|
||
surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate of 0.25% v/v is recommended. In addition to
|
||
COC or NIS, a spray grade UAN (e.g. 28-0-0) at the rate of 2.5% v/v or ammonium
|
||
sulfate (AMS) at the rate of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray solution may be added for
|
||
improved weed control. If emerged weeds are not present at the time of the Callisto
|
||
Herbicide application, no additives are recommended. If oat injury is a concern,
|
||
eliminating the use of UAN or AMS will reduce the risk for postemergence crop injury.
|
||
Additionally, the use of NIS instead of COC will also reduce the oat injury risk.
|
||
However, weed control is also reduced if UAN or AMS is eliminated and when switching
|
||
from COC to NIS.
|
||
|
||
Tank mixing other pesticides with Callisto Herbicide postemergence may increase the
|
||
risk of injury. Avoid adding pesticides with emulsifiable concentrate (EC) type
|
||
formulations to Callisto Herbicide for applications made postemergence to the crop.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not graze or feed forage from treated areas within 30 days following an
|
||
application of Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not harvest oats within 50 days following the application of Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
3. Do not make more than one application of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
4. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide preemergence (prior to oat emergence) at more
|
||
than 6.0 fl oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) per year.
|
||
|
||
5. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide postemergence at more than 3.0 fl oz/A (0.094 lb
|
||
ai/A) per year.
|
||
|
||
6. If the oat crop treated with Callisto Herbicide is lost or destroyed, oats may be
|
||
replanted immediately. If Callisto Herbicide was applied to the lost oat crop, no
|
||
additional Callisto Herbicide can be applied to the replanted oat crop.
|
||
|
||
OKRA
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied as a row-middle or a hooded post-direct treatment (but
|
||
not both) for weed control in okra.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence row-middle application: Apply Callisto Herbicide at a rate of 6.0 fl
|
||
oz/A as a banded application to the row middles prior to weed emergence. For this
|
||
banded application, leave one foot of untreated area over the okra row or 6” to each
|
||
side of the planted row. For banded applications, the application must be made to
|
||
account for band width, i.e. to deliver 6.0 fl oz per treated acre. Do not apply Callisto
|
||
Herbicide directly over the planted okra row or severe crop injury may occur. Injury risk
|
||
is greatest on coarse textured soils (sand, sandy loam or loamy sand).

as a postemergence directed application using a hooded sprayer for control or partial
|
||
control of the weeds listed in Table 1. Okra must be at least 3” tall at the time of this
|
||
application. It is recommended that a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate
|
||
of 0.25% v/v be added to the spray solution. For postemergence hooded applications,
|
||
the spray equipment must be set up to minimize the amount of Callisto Herbicide that
|
||
contacts the okra foliage or crop injury will occur. For best postemergence results,
|
||
Callisto Herbicide must be applied to actively growing weeds.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not harvest okra within 28 days following the application of Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not make more than one application of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
3. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide as a row-middle application at more than 6.0 fl
|
||
oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) per year.
|
||
|
||
4. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide as a post-directed application at more than 3.0 fl
|
||
oz/A (0.094 lb ai/A) per year.
|
||
|
||
5. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide as a broadcast preemergence or broadcast
|
||
postemergence application to okra or severe injury will occur.
|
||
|
||
6. If the okra crop treated with Callisto Herbicide is lost or destroyed, okra can be
|
||
replanted only in the soil band that was not treated with Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
PEARL MILLET
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be applied preemergence in pearl millet, i.e. after planting but
|
||
before crop emergence, at a rate up to 6 fl oz/A. For a list of weeds controlled see
|
||
Table 2. If weeds are emerged at the time of application, the use of a crop oil
|
||
concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at the rate of 1% v/v is recommended. In addition, a
|
||
spray grade UAN (e.g., 28-0-0) at the rate of 2.5% (v/v) or AMS at the rate of 8.5 lb/100
|
||
gal of spray solution may be added to improve the burndown of existing weeds.
|
||
Applications of Callisto Herbicide to emerged pearl millet can result in severe crop
|
||
injury.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not make more than one application of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|

RHUBARB
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied prior to crop emergence for weed control in
|
||
established rhubarb.
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide at a rate of 6.0 fl oz/A to dormant (prior to any spring green-up)
|
||
rhubarb for control or partial control of the weeds listed in Table 2. If weeds are
|
||
emerged at the time of application, it is recommended that a crop oil concentrate (COC)
|
||
type adjuvant at 1% v/v or a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate of 0.25%
|
||
v/v be added to the spray solution. Applications of Callisto Herbicide to rhubarb that is
|
||
not dormant may result in a temporary bleaching symptomology. Rainfall or irrigation
|
||
after the Callisto Herbicide application may increase the risk of injury to emerging
|
||
rhubarb.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not harvest rhubarb within 21 days following the application of Callisto
|
||
Herbicide.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not make more than one application of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
3. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide at more than 6.0 fl oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) per year.
|
||
|
||
SORGHUM (GRAIN AND SWEET)
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Application: Callisto Herbicide can be applied preemergence or
|
||
preplant non-incorporated up to 21 days before planting sorghum for control or partial
|
||
control of the weeds listed in Table 2.
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide preemergence at a rate of 6.0-6.4 fl oz/A as a broadcast non-
|
||
incorporated application prior to sorghum emergence. Applying Callisto Herbicide less
|
||
than 7 days before sorghum planting will increase the risk of crop injury, especially if
|
||
irrigation or rainfall is received following the application. Injury symptoms include
|
||
temporary bleaching of newly emerging sorghum leaves. Applying Callisto Herbicide
|
||
more than 7 days (but not more than 21) prior to planting will reduce the risk of crop
|
||
injury.
|
||
|
||
If Callisto Herbicide is applied prior to planting, minimize disturbance of the herbicide
|
||
treated soil barrier during the planting process in order to lessen the potential for weed
|
||
emergence.
|
||
|
||
If emerged weeds are present at the time of the preemergence application, it is
|
||
recommended that a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate of 0.25% v/v or a
|
||
crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at a rate of 1% v/v be added to the spray
|
||
solution. In addition to COC or NIS, a spray grade UAN at a rate of 2.5% v/v or
|
||
ammonium sulfate (AMS) at a rate of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray solution can be added
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide
|
||
Page 42
|
||
|
||
to the spray solution.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Application Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not apply more than 6.4 fl oz/A (0.2 lb ai/A) of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not make more than one application of Callisto Herbicide per year.
|
||
|
||
3. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide to emerged sorghum or severe crop injury may
|
||
occur.
|
||
|
||
4. Do not use Callisto Herbicide in the production of forage sorghum, sudangrass,
|
||
sorghum-sudangrass hybrids, or dual purpose sorghum.
|
||
|
||
5. Do not apply Callisto Herbicide to sorghum that is grown on coarse textured soils
|
||
(e.g. sandy loam, loamy sand, sand).
|
||
|
||
6. In the State of Texas, do not apply Callisto Herbicide to sorghum grown south of
|
||
Interstate 20 (I-20) or east of Highway 277.
|
||
|
||
Post-Directed: Callisto Herbicide can be applied post-directed to grain sorghum for
|
||
control or partial control of the weeds listed in Table 1. For best results, apply Callisto
|
||
Herbicide to actively growing weeds.
|
||
|
||
Apply Callisto Herbicide at a rate of 3 fl oz/A as a post-directed application when the
|
||
grain sorghum is a minimum of 8 inches tall. Make the application by directing the
|
||
spray between the crop rows and towards the base of the grain sorghum plant. Direct
|
||
application of Callisto Herbicide onto grain sorghum foliage can result in crop injury
|
||
including temporary bleaching. If crop injury does occur, newly emerging leaves
|
||
following application are typically unaffected.
|
||
|
||
It is recommended that a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate of 0.25% v/v
|
||
or a crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at a rate of 1% v/v be added to the spray
|
||
solution. In addition to COC or NIS, a spray grade Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN) at a
|
||
rate of 2.5% v/v or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at a rate of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray
|
||
solution can be added to the spray solution.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may be tank mixed with other herbicides registered for grain sorghum
|
||
for improved spectrum of weed control. Additionally, these tank mixtures can be used
|
||
to include a herbicide with a different mode of action to help control or manage the
|
||
development of resistant weed biotypes.
|
||
|
||
Post-Directed Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Do not apply more than one post-directed application of Callisto Herbicide.
|
||
|
||

|
||
emerge.
|
||
|
||
7. Do not use Callisto Herbicide in the production of forage sorghum, sudangrass,
|
||
or sorghum-sudangrass hybrids.
|
||
|
||
SOYBEAN
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied preemergence to soybeans that are identified as
|
||
mesotrione tolerant. Applications to soybeans that are not mesotrione tolerant will
|
||
result in significant crop injury. For a list of mesotrione tolerant soybean varieties,
|
||
contact a Syngenta Technical Representative.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Application: For preemergence control of the weeds listed in Table 2,
|
||
apply Callisto Herbicide prior to soybean emergence at a rate of 6.0 fl oz/A. Apply the
|
||
higher rate for longer residual control. Callisto Herbicide may be tank mixed with other
|
||
registered soybean herbicides such as Dual Magnum®, Dual II Magnum, and Prefix®.
|
||
Refer to the tank mix partner label and follow all precautions and restrictions.
|
||
|
||
If weeds are emerged at the time of application, add either a non-ionic surfactant (NIS)
|
||
at 1 qt/100 gallons (0.25% v/v) or a crop oil concentrate (COC) at 1 gallon/100 gallons
|
||
(1% v/v). In addition to NIS or COC, it is also recommended to add either ammonium
|
||
sulfate (AMS) at 8.5-17 lb/100 gallon (or equivalent).
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
|
||
1. Apply no more than 6.0 fl oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) per year.

SUGARCANE
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide can be applied by ground for preemergence, postemergence over-
|
||
the-top or postemergence directed weed control in sugarcane.
|
||
|
||
Callisto Herbicide may also be applied aerially for preemergence or postemergence
|
||
weed control only in the following states: Florida, Louisiana and Texas.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Applications: Apply Callisto Herbicide for preemergence weed control
|
||
at 6.0-7.7 fl oz/A after the planting of plant-cane or after harvest of ratoon-cane. For a
|
||
list of weeds controlled preemergence, refer to Table 2. If some weeds are already
|
||
emerged at the time of application, add a crop oil concentrate (COC) type adjuvant at a
|
||
rate of 1% v/v or a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant at a rate of 0.25% v/v to the
|
||
spray solution. In addition to COC or NIS, a spray grade UAN at a rate of 2.5% v/v or
|
||
ammonium sulfate (AMS) at a rate of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray solution can be added
|
||
to the spray solution. For improved preemergence weed control, AAtrex or Evik® can
|
||
be tank mixed with Callisto Herbicide. Refer to the tank mix partner label for specific
|
||
rates and use directions. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all
|
||
products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions
|
||
and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing.
|
||
Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements
|
||
of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||
Postemergence Applications: Apply Callisto Herbicide postemergence at 3.0 fl oz/A
|
||
for control of the weeds listed in Table 1. Postemergence applications may be made as
|
||
a post-over-the-top or as a post-directed spray to the base of the sugarcane. If a
|
||
preemergence application was made earlier in the season, only one postemergence
|
||
application can be made. If no preemergence application was made earlier in the
|
||
season, both a post-over-the-top and a post-directed application can be made. For best
|
||
results, Callisto Herbicide must be applied to actively growing weeds.
|
||
|
||
For postemergence applications, it is recommended that a crop oil concentrate (COC)
|
||
type adjuvant at a rate of 1% v/v or a nonionic surfactant (NIS) type adjuvant be added
|
||
to the spray solution. In addition to COC or NIS, the use of a spray grade UAN (e.g.
|
||
28-0-0) at 2.5% v/v or ammonium sulfate (AMS) at a rate of 8.5 lb/100 gallons of spray
|
||
solution can be added for improved control of weeds.
|
||
|
||
For additional postemergence weed control, Callisto Herbicide can be tank mixed with
|
||
atrazine, Asulox® and/or Envoke®. Refer to the tank mix product labels for specific
