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.

|
|
GROUND WATER ADVISORY
|
|
Metolachlor is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain
|
|
conditions as a result of label use.
|
|
This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are
|
|
permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
|
|
Fomesafen is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain
|
|
conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may leach into groundwater if
|
|
used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is
|
|
shallow.
|
|
SURFACE WATER ADVISORY
|
|
Metolachlor has the potential to contaminate surface water through ground spray
|
|
drift. Under some conditions, metolachlor may also have a high potential for
|
|
runoff into surface water (primarily via dissolution in runoff water) for several
|
|
months post-application. These include poorly draining or wet soils with readily
|
|
visible slopes toward adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas, and
|
|
areas overlaying extremely shallow ground water, areas with in-field canals or
|
|
ditches that drain to surface water, areas not separated from adjacent surface
|
|
waters with vegetated filter strips, and areas overlaying tile drainage systems that
|
|
drain to surface water.
|
|

|
|
Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170. This Standard contains requirements for
|
|
the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and
|
|
greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements
|
|
for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also
|
|
contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on
|
|
this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-entry
|
|
interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are
|
|
covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
|
|
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-
|
|
entry interval (REI) of 24 hours. Exception: If the product is soil-injected or
|

|
|
poor weed control, crop injury, or illegal residues.
|
|
Note: not for sale, use, or distribution in Nassau county or Suffolk county, New
|
|
York.
|
|
RESISTANCE
|
|
When herbicides that affect the same biological site of action are used repeatedly
|
|
over several years to control the same weed species in the same field, naturally-
|
|
occurring resistant biotypes may survive a correctly applied herbicide treatment,
|
|
propagate, and become dominant in that field. Adequate control of these
|
|
resistant weed biotypes cannot be expected. If weed control is unsatisfactory, it
|
|
may be necessary to retreat the problem area using a product affecting a
|
|
different site of action.
|
|
To better manage herbicide resistance through delaying the proliferation and
|
|
possible dominance of herbicide resistant weed biotypes, it may be necessary to
|
|
|
|
change cultural practices within and between crop seasons such as using a
|
|
combination of tillage, retreatment, tank-mix partners and/or sequential herbicide
|
|
applications that have a different site of action. Weed escapes that are allowed
|
|
to go to seed will promote the spread of resistant biotypes.
|
|
It is advisable to keep accurate records of pesticides applied to individual fields to
|
|
help obtain information on the spread and dispersal of resistant biotypes.
|
|
Consult your agricultural dealer, consultant, applicator, and/or appropriate state
|
|
agricultural extension service representative for specific alternative cultural
|
|
practices or herbicide recommendations available in your area.
|
|
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide is a selective herbicide for the control or partial control of
|
|
certain grass, broadleaf, and sedge weeds in soybean and cotton. STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide may be applied in soybean as a preplant surface, preplant
|
|
incorporated, or preemergence, treatment. In cotton, STATEMENT may be
|
|
applied in post-directed application. STATEMENT Herbicide is a mixture of the
|
|
active ingredients fomesafen and metolachlor. Fomesafen is a
|
|
protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor (Group 14 mode of action) leading to
|
|
cellular membrane disruption and plant death. Metolachlor is a biosynthesis
|
|
inhibitor (Group 15 mode of action) preventing cell division in emerging weeds.
|
|
APPLICATION AND MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
|
Prepare no more spray mixture than is needed for the immediate operation.
|
|
Thoroughly clean the spray equipment before using STATEMENT Herbicide.
|
|
Vigorous agitation is necessary to maintain uniformity of the spray mixture.
|
|
Maintain maximum agitation throughout the spraying operation. Do not allow
|
|
spray mixture to stand overnight in the spray tank. Flush the spray equipment
|
|
thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to a previously treated area.
|
|
Application in Water or Fluid Fertilizers
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide Alone: Add 1/3 of the required amount of water or fluid
|
|
fertilizer to the spray or mixing tank. With the agitator running, add STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide into the spray tank. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of
|
|
the water or fluid fertilizer. Begin application of the spray solution after the
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide has completely dispersed in the water or fluid fertilizer.
|
|
Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide + Tank Mixtures: Add 1/3 of the required amount of
|
|
water or fluid fertilizer to the mix tank. Start the agitator running before adding
|
|
any tank mix partners. In general, tank mix partners should be added in this
|
|
order: products packaged in water-soluble packaging, wettable powders,
|
|
wettable granules (dry flowables), liquid flowables, liquids such as STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide, and emulsifiable concentrates. Always allow each tank mix partner to
|
|
become fully dispersed before adding the next product. Provide sufficient
|
|
|
|
agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Maintain agitation until all of
|
|
the mixture has been applied.
|
|
Notes: (1) When using STATEMENT Herbicide in tank mixtures, all products in
|
|
water-soluble packaging should be added to the tank and mixed with plain water
|
|
before any other tank mix partner, including STATEMENT Herbicide. Allow the
|
|
water-soluble packaging to completely dissolve and the product(s) to completely
|
|
disperse before adding any other tank mix partner to the tank. (2) Water-soluble
|
|
packets will not properly dissolve in most spray solutions that contain fluid
|
|
fertilizers.
|
|
If using STATEMENT Herbicide in a tank mixture, observe all directions for use,
|
|
crop/sites, use rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations that appear on
|
|
the tank mix product label. No label dosage rate should be exceeded, and the
|
|
most restrictive label precautions and limitations should be followed.
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide is compatible with most common tank mix partners.
|
|
However, the physical compatibility of STATEMENT Herbicide with tank mix
|
|
partners should be tested before use. To determine the physical compatibility of
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide with other products, use a jar test, as described below.
|
|
Note: Do not use nitrogen solutions or fluid fertilizers as a complete or partial spray carrier
|
|
when applying STATEMENT Herbicide as a postemergence application to soybean as these
|
|
combinations may cause crop injury.
|
|
Compatibility Test
|
|
A jar test is recommended before tank mixing to ensure compatibility of
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide with other pesticides. The following test assumes a
|
|
spray volume of 25 gal/A. For other spray volumes, make appropriate changes in
|
|
the ingredients.
|
|
Note: Nitrogen solutions or complete fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of the
|
|
water in the spray for preplant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence
|
|
applications only. Because liquid fertilizers vary, even within the same analysis,
|
|
always check compatibility with pesticide(s) before use. Incompatibility of
|
|
tank mixtures is more common with suspensions of fertilizer and pesticides.
|
|
Test Procedure
|
|
1. Add 1.0 pint of carrier (fertilizer or water) to each of 2 one-quart jars with tight
|
|
lids. Note: Use the same source of water that will be used for the tank mix
|
|
and conduct the test at the temperature the tank mix will be applied.
|
|
2. To one of the jars, add 1/4 tsp. or 1.2 milliliters of a compatibility agent
|
|
approved f9r this use (1/4 tsp. is equivalent to 2.0 pints/100 gals, spray).
|
|
Shake or stir gently to mix.
|
|
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of pesticide(s) in their relative
|
|
proportions based on recommended label rates. If more than one pesticide is
|
|
used, add them separately with dry pesticides first, flowables next, and
|
|
emulsifiable concentrates last. After each addition, shake or stir gently to
|
|
thoroughly mix.
|
|
4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten, and invert each jar ten
|
|
times to mix. Let the mixtures stand 15-30 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
|
|
8
|
|
|
|
spray mixture by comparing the two 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 pesticide(s) in water before addition, or (b) add
|
|
1/2 the compatibility agent to the fertilizer or water and the other 1/2 to the
|
|
emulsifiable concentrate or flowable pesticide before addition to the mixture. If
|
|
incompatibility is still observed, do not use the mixture.
|
|
5. After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in
|
|
accordance with the Storage and Disposal section in this label.
|
|
APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
|
|
Activation
|
|
A small amount of soil moisture is required to activate STATEMENT Herbicide
|
|
following application. In areas of low rainfall, a preemergence application to dry
|
|
soil should be followed with light irrigation of 0.25-0.5 inch of water. As with many
|
|
surface-applied herbicides, weed control and crop tolerance may vary with
|
|
rainfall and/or soil texture. If rainfall or irrigation within 7-10 days does not occur,
|
|
cultivate uniformly with shallow tilling equipment such as a rotary hoe that will not
|
|
damage the crop.
|
|
Ground Spray Equipment: Apply STATEMENT Herbicide alone or in tank
|
|
mixtures by ground equipment in a minimum of 10 gal. of spray mixture per acre,
|
|
unless otherwise specified.
|
|
Use sprayers that provide accurate and uniform application. Calibrate the sprayer
|
|
before use at the beginning of the season. For STATEMENT Herbicide tank
|
|
mixtures with wettable powder or dry flowable formulations, screens and
|
|
strainers should be no finer than 50-mesh.
|
|
Band Applications
|
|
Calculate the amount of herbicide needed for band treatment by the formula:
|
|
Band width in inches x broadcast rate = amount needed
|
|
Row width in inches per acre per acre of field
|
|
Chemigation: Do not apply STATEMENT Herbicide through any type of
|
|
irrigation system.
|
|
Aerial Application (Soybean): Apply STATEMENT Herbicide in water using a
|
|
minimum spray volume of 5 gal./A. Avoid application under conditions where
|
|
uniform coverage cannot be obtained or where excessive spray drift may occur.
|
|
Make applications at a maximum height of 10 ft. above the soybean with low-drift
|
|
nozzles at a maximum pressure of 40 psi.
|
|
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 applicator.
|
|
|
|
The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determines 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.
|
|
1. The distance of the outermost 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 downward 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 information
|
|
covered in the following Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information section:
|
|
Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information
|
|
Information on Droplet Size
|
|
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The
|
|
best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that 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 nozzles 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 air stream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the
|
|
recommended practice. Significant deflection from horizontal 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 patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the
|
|
wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
|
|
Application Height
|
|
Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of
|
|
10
|
|
|
|
the largest plants, unless 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.
|
|
Swath Adjustment
|
|
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced
|
|
downward. Therefore, on the upwind and downwind edges of the field, the
|
|
applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the
|
|
aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase with increasing drift
|
|
potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.).
|
|
Wind
|
|
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2-10 mph. However, many
|
|
factors, including droplet size and equipment type, determine drift potential at any
|
|
given speed. 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 patterns and how
|
|
they affect spray drift.
|
|
Temperature and Humidity
|
|
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce
|
|
larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation 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 cloud 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 morning.
|
|
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
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide should be applied only 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).
|
|
Avoid application to humans or animals. Flagmen and loaders should avoid
|
|
inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.
|
|
Cleaning Equipment After Application
|
|
Because some crops, other than soybean, are sensitive to low rates of
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide, special attention must be given to cleaning equipment
|
|
11
|
|
|
|
before spraying a crop other than those registered for use and on this label. Mix
|
|
only as much spray solution as needed. Immediately after spraying, clean
|
|
equipment thoroughly using the following procedure:
|
|
1. Flush tank, hoses, boom, and nozzles with clean water.
|
|
2. Prepare a cleaning solution of one gal. of household ammonia per 50 gal. of
|
|
water. Many commercial spray tank cleaners may be used as well. Consult
|
|
your Cheminova representative for a partial listing of approved tank cleaners
|
|
and more information about proper tank cleaning procedures. Do not use
|
|
chlorine-based cleaners such as Clorox®.
|
|
3. When available, 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. 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 re-circulate 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 one minute with the
|
|
cleaning solution.
|
|
5. Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present, or to
|
|
intertidal areas below the mean water mark. Do not contaminate water when
|
|
disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate. Do not apply when weather
|
|
conditions favor drift from target area.
|
|
6. Repeat steps 2-5
|
|
7. Remove nozzles, screens, diaphragm check valves and strainers and clean
|
|
separately in the ammonia cleaning solution after completing the above
|
|
procedures.
|
|
8. Rinse the complete spraying system with clean water.

COTTON
|
|
Post-Directed Application
|
|
Apply STATEMENT Herbicide in emerged cotton as a post-directed treatment
|
|
18
|
|
|
|
using precision post-directed, hooded or shielded application equipment to
|
|
provide complete coverage of emerged weeds. Apply STATEMENT Herbicide at
|
|
2-2.45 pints per acre. STATEMENT Herbicide will control or partially control
|
|
certain emerged broadleaf weeds such as hemp sesbania, waterhemp, pigweed
|
|
species, and morningglory species. Apply when broadleaf weeds have 2 to 4 true
|
|
leaves in a minimum of 10 gallons spray solution per acre. STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide should be applied with a non-ionic surfactant at 0.25 to 0.5% v/v or
|
|
crop oil concentrate at 1% v/v to emerged weeds if applied alone or in a tank mix
|
|
with products that do not contain a built-in adjuvant. Do not add liquid nitrogen
|
|
(28% or similar) to STATEMENT Herbicide or STATEMENT Herbicide tank
|
|
mixes in cotton. Refer to Table 2 for weeds controlled or partially controlled with
|
|
soil activation of STATEMENT Herbicide if rainfall or irrigation occurs within 7 to
|
|
10 days after application.
|
|
To broaden the weed control spectrum in cotton, STATEMENT Herbicide may be
|
|
tank mixed with other labeled post-directed herbicides such as Caparol®, Direx®,
|
|
Envoke®, Karmex®, Layby Pro, MSMA, Suprend®, or glyphosate (such as
|
|
Glyfos® X-TRA for use in glyphosate-resistant cotton only). Refer to the tank-mix
|
|
partner label for precautionary statements, restrictions, rates, and a list of weeds
|
|
controlled.
|
|
Cotton foliage is not tolerant to STATEMENT Herbicide applications. Avoid
|
|
contact to cotton foliage and stems that are not fully barked as unacceptable
|
|
injury will occur. Application equipment should be calibrated (spray pressure,
|
|
nozzle type and configuration, and orifice size) to avoid fine spray droplets
|
|
contacting green cotton stems and foliage.
|
|
Post-Directed Application Timing in Cotton
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide may be applied to cotton at least 6 inches in height
|
|
through layby as a post-directed application. All post-directed applications should
|
|
avoid spray contact with any green non-barked parts of the cotton plant or foliage
|
|
as unacceptable injury will occur. Follow the application timing recommendations
|
|
below for post-directed applications in cotton.
|
|
Shielded and Hooded Applications
|
|
Make a precision post-directed STATEMENT Herbicide application to the base
|
|
of the cotton plant avoiding contact with the cotton stem or foliage when cotton
|
|
is at least 6 inches in height to avoid cotton injury. Use only hooded or
|
|
shielded spray equipment to apply STATEMENT Herbicide in cotton that is at
|
|
least 6 inches in height. Adjust nozzles to provide full coverage of emerged
|
|
target weeds.
|
|
Layby Applications
|
|
Make a post-directed STATEMENT Herbicide application to the base of the
|
|
cotton plant avoiding contact with any non-barked portion of the cotton plant or
|
|
foliage. Use precision post-directed equipment or hooded or shielded sprayers
|
|
on cotton that has developed a minimum of 4 inches of brown bark through
|
|
layby. Application equipment should be configured to provide full coverage of
|
|
19
|
|
|
|
z
|
|
emerged target weeds.
|
|
Restrictions—Cotton
|
|
• Do not apply STATEMENT Herbicide later than 80 days before harvest.
|

STATEMENT HERBICIDE FOUNDATION TREATMENT FOR PLANNED TWO-
|
|
PASS WEED CONTROL PROGRAMS IN ALL TILLAGE SYSTEMS
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide at 2 pints/A may be applied as a preemergence
|
|
application on all soils to reduce competition from weeds for a period of up to 5
|
|
weeks when followed by a planned postemergence herbicide application in
|
|
conventional and glyphosate-resistant soybean. Refer to Table 2 for weeds
|
|
controlled or partially controlled. For the postemergence herbicide application,
|
|
consult the selected postemergence herbicide manufacturer's label for weeds
|
|
controlled, optimum weed size, application rate, additional use directions,
|
|
precautions, and limitations before use.
|
|
Preplant Surface Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage soybean systems
|
|
only, STATEMENT Herbicide may be applied at 2 pints/A prior to soybean
|
|
planting. If weeds are present at the time of treatment, apply STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide in a tank mixture with a burndown herbicide (such as Glyfos X-TRA).
|
|
To the extent possible, minimize movement of treated soil out of the row or of
|
|
untreated soil to the surface during planting, or weed control will be diminished.
|
|
Follow with a postemergence herbicide applied at the labeled rate and within the
|
|
specific growth stage for soybean and weed spectrum. Recommended
|
|
postemergence treatments include any product or combination of products
|
|
labeled to control the specific weeds remaining in the field, including glyphosate
|
|
(such as Glyfos X-TRA) brands (for use on glyphosate-resistant soybean only) or
|
|
Liberty®/lgnite® for use on LibertyLink® soybean only.
|
|
Preplant Incorporated: Apply STATEMENT Herbicide at 2 pints/A in
|
|
conventional-tillage systems where incorporation into the top 2 inches of soil
|
|
occurs within 7 days after application using a finishing disk, harrow, rolling
|
|
cultivator, or similar implement capable of providing uniform 2-inch incorporation.
|
|
Follow with a postemergence herbicide applied at the labeled rate and within the
|
|
specific growth stage for soybean and weed spectrum. Recommended
|
|
postemergence treatments include any product or combination of products
|
|
labeled to control the specific weeds remaining in the field, including glyphosate
|
|
(for example, Glyfos X-TRA) brands (for use on glyphosate-resistant soybean
|
|
20
|
|
|
|
only) or Liberty/Ignite for use on LibertyLink soybean only.
|
|
Preemergence: Apply STATEMENT Herbicide at 2 pints/A during planting
|
|
(behind the planter), or after planting, but before weeds or soybean emerge in
|
|
conventional, conservation, or no-till systems. If weeds are present at the time of
|
|
treatment, apply STATEMENT Herbicide in a tank mixture with a burndown
|
|
herbicide (such as Glyfos X-TRA). Follow with a postemergence herbicide
|
|
applied at the labeled rate and within the specific growth stage for soybean and
|
|
weed spectrum. Recommended postemergence treatments include any product
|
|
or combination of products labeled to control the specific weeds remaining in the
|
|
field, including glyphosate (such as Glyfos X-TRA) brands (for use on
|
|
glyphosate-resistant soybean only) or Liberty/Ignite for use on LibertyLink
|
|
soybean only.

STATEMENT HERBICIDE IN CONVENTIONAL-TILLAGE SYSTEMS
|
|
For conventional-tillage systems, STATEMENT Herbicide may be applied
|
|
preplant incorporated or preemergence for control or partial control of weeds
|
|
listed in Table 2. STATEMENT Herbicide may be applied alone or in tank mix or
|
|
followed sequentially with postemergence herbicides to broaden the weed control
|
|
spectrum or control newly emerged weeds. Refer to Table 3 for STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide rates.
|
|
Preplant Incorporated: Incorporate STATEMENT Herbicide uniformly into the
|
|
top 2 inches of soil within 7 days after application and before planting using a
|
|
disk, field cultivator, rolling cultivator, or similar implement. Apply STATEMENT
|
|
Herbicide preplant incorporated if furrow irrigation is used or when a period of dry
|
|
weather after application is expected.
|
|
Preemergence Application: Apply during planting (behind the planter), or after
|
|
planting, but before weeds or soybean emerge. Dry weather following
|
|
preemergence application of STATEMENT Herbicide may reduce effectiveness.
|
|
If weeds develop, cultivate uniformly with shallow tilling equipment such as a
|
|
rotary hoe that will not damage soybean.

BURNDOWN WEED CONTROL
|
|
STATEMENT Herbicide can be used as part of a burndown herbicide program
|
|
for control of existing vegetation prior to soybean planting and/or emergence in
|
|
conservation tillage (reduced-tillage/no-till) systems. STATEMENT Herbicide may
|
|
be tank mixed with 2,4-D low volatile ester (LVE), paraquat, glyphosate (such as
|
|
Glyfos X-TRA), Liberty, Fusilade® DX, Fusion®, Poast Plus®, or Select® for
|
|
control of emerged weeds prior to soybean planting or crop emergence. Refer to
|
|
the tank mix product labels for specific rates, use directions, precautions, and
|
|
limitations.
