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

|
||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
WC-DCB is formulated as water dispersible granule intended for use in a spray to control and suppression of many
|
||
annual, biennials, and perennial broadleaf weeds, as well as woody brush and vines listed in the “Weed Control
|
||
Information” section of this label. WC-DCB may be used for control of these weeds in asparagus, corn, cotton,
|
||
conservation reserve programs, fallow cropland, grass grown for seed, hay, proso millet, pasture, rangeland,
|
||
farmstead (noncropland), small grains, sorghum, sugarcane, and turf.
|
||
MODE OF ACTION
|
||
WC-DCB is readily absorbed by plants through shoot and root uptake, translocates throughout the plant's system,
|
||
and accumulates in areas of active growth. WC-DCB interferes with the plant's growth hormones (auxins) resulting
|
||
in death of many broadleaf weeds.
|
||

PRECAUTIONS
|
||
WC-DCB may cause injury to desirable trees and plants, particularly beans, cotton, flowers, fruit trees, grapes,
|
||
ornamentals, peas, potatoes, soybeans, sunflowers, tobacco, tomatoes, and other broadleaf plants when
|
||
contacting their roots, stems, or foliage. These plants are most sensitive to WC-DCB during their development
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
|
||
or growing stage.
|
||
Stress. DO NOTapply to crops under stress due to lack of moisture, hail damage, flooding, herbicide injury,
|
||
mechanical injury, insects, or widely fluctuating temperatures as injury may result.
|
||
Rainfall or irrigation occurring within 4 hours after postemergence applications may reduce the effectiveness of
|
||
WC-DCB.
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
WC-DCB, which contains the active ingredient dicamba is a group 4 herbicide based on the mode of action
|
||
classification system of the Weed Science Society of America. Although WC-DCB has a low probability of selecting
|
||
for resistant weed biotypes. Tank mixes and rotation with herbicides possessing other modes of action are
|
||
recommended to avoid weed resistance. The following directions apply to all uses of WC-DCB. Additional
|
||
precautions and restrictions will be found in each specific use section.
|
||
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to
|
||
one or more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may include the use of multiple
|
||
herbicides with different sites of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or
|
||
other cultural practices. Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to
|
||
delay the selection for resistance. The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful
|
||
implementation of a weed resistance management program.
|
||
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should:
|
||
•Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed
|
||
sizes present.
|
||
•Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
|
||
•Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches).
|
||
•Apply full rates of WC-DCB for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the specified time (correct weed
|
||
size) to minimize weed escapes.
|
||
•Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
|
||
•Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
|
||
•Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your FMC representative,
|
||
local retailer, or county extension agent.
|
||
•Contact your FMC representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to
|
||
these MOAs have been found in your region. DO NOT assume that each listed weed is being controlled by
|
||
multiple sites of action. Products with multiple active ingredients are intended to broaden the spectrum of weeds
|
||
that are controlled. Some weeds may be controlled by only one of the active ingredients in this product.
|
||
•If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than Group 4 and/or
|
||
use nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production.
|
||
•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.
|
||
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is
|
||
practical:
|
||
•Use a broad-spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control program.
|
||
•Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
|
||
•Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 4 herbicides.
|
||
•Avoid making more than two applications of WC-DCB and any other Group 4 herbicides within a single growing
|
||
season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-
|
||
to-control weeds.
|
||
•Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, such as mechanical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and
|
||
weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
|
||
•Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness.
|
||
•Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds.
|
||
•Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.
|
||
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
|
||
This product may be used as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that can include biological,
|
||
cultural, and genetic practices aimed at preventing economic pest damage. IPM principles and practices include

APPLICATION INFORMATION
|
||
UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED UNDER THE INDIVIDUAL USE HEADINGS OF THIS LABEL, THE
|
||
FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS APPLY TO ALL CROP AND NONCROP USES OF WC-DCB. REFER TO INDIVIDUAL
|
||
USE SECTIONS FOR ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS, RESTRICTIONS, APPLICATION RATES AND TIMINGS.
|
||
WC-DCB is a water dispersible formulation that can be applied using water or sprayable fluid fertilizer as the carrier.
|
||
If a fluid fertilizer is to be used, a compatibility test (see COMPATIBILITY TEST) should be made prior to tank
|
||
mixing.
|
||
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.
|
||
Ground or aerial application equipment which will give good spray coverage of weed foliage should be used.
|
||
Avoid disturbing (e.g. cultivating or mowing) treated areas for at least 7 days following application.
|
||
Application Instructions
|
||
WC-DCB can be applied to actively growing weeds as aerial, broadcast, band, or spot spray applications using
|
||
water or sprayable fertilizer as a carrier. For WC-DCB application rates for control or suppression by weed type and
|
||
growth stage see the Application Ratessection, table WC-DCB Application Rates for Control or Suppression by
|
||
Weed Type and Growth Stage. For crop-specific application timing and other details, refer to Crop-specific
|
||
Information. To avoid uneven spray coverage, WC-DCB must not be applied during periods of gusty wind or when
|
||
wind is in excess of 15 mph. Avoid off- target movement. Use extreme care when applying WC-DCB to prevent
|
||
injury to desirable plants and shrubs.
|
||
DO NOTtreat areas where either possible downward movement into the soil or surface washing may cause contact
|
||
of WC-DCB with the roots of desirable plants such as trees and shrubs.
|
||
To avoid injury to desirable plants, equipment used to apply WC-DCB should be thoroughly cleaned (see
|
||
PROCEDURE FOR CLEANING SPRAY EQUIPMENT) before reusing to apply any other chemicals.
|
||
All crop uses of WC-DCB are intended for a normal growing interval between planting and harvest. No crop rotation
|
||
restrictions exist if normal harvest of treated crop has occurred. If this interval is shortened, such as in cover crops
|
||
that will be plowed under, DO NOTfollow up with the planting of a sensitive crop.
|
||
Crops growing under stress conditions such as drought, poor fertility, or foliar damage due to hail, wind or insects,
|
||
can exhibit various injury symptoms that may be more pronounced if herbicides are applied Consult your local or
|
||
state authorities for possible application restrictions and advice concerning these and other special local use
|
||
situations. Tank mix directions are for use only in states where the tank mix product and application site are
|
||
registered.
|
||
Cultivation:
|
||
DO NOTcultivate within 7 days after applying WC-DCB.

1. Rates below 6 ounces per acre may provide control or suppression but should typically be applied with other herbicides tha
|
||
are effective on the same species and biotype.
|
||
2. Species noted with footnote 2 in this table require tank mixes for adequate control.
|
||
3. DO NOTbroadcast apply more than 24 ounces per acre per application. Use the higher level of listed rate ranges when
|
||
treating dense vegetative growth or perennial weeds with well established root growth.
|
||
4. Retreatment or tank mixtures may be necessary for best control. However, DO NOTexceed a total of 48 ounces of WC-
|
||
DCB per acre per year.
|
||
Additives
|
||
To improve postemergence weed control, agriculturally approved surfactants, sprayable fertilizers (urea ammonium
|
||
nitrate, or ammonium sulfate), or crop oil concentrate may be added, particularly in dry growing conditions. (Refer to
|
||
the table in this section entitled “Additive Rate per Acre”)
|
||
Nitrogen Source:
|
||
Urea ammonium nitrate (UAN): Use 2 to 4 quarts of UAN (commonly referred to as 28%, 30%, or 32% nitrogen
|
||
solution) per acre. DO NOTuse brass or aluminum nozzles when spraying UAN.
|
||
Ammonium sulfate (AMS): AMS at 2.5 pounds per acre may be substituted for UAN. Use high-quality AMS
|
||
(spray grade) to avoid plugging of nozzles. Other sources of nitrogen are not as effective as those mentioned.
|
||
FMC Corporation does not recommend applying AMS, if applied in less than 10 gallons per acre because of
|
||
potential problems with precipitation in reduced volumes. Use AMS only if it has been demonstrated to be
|
||
successful in local experience.
|
||
Nonionic Surfactants
|
||
The standard label recommendation is 1 pint of an 80% active nonionic spray surfactant per 100 gallons of water.
|
||
For certain weeds, a higher spray surfactant rate is recommended.
|
||
Crop Oil Concentrate or Methylated Seed Oil
|
||
A crop oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum or vegetable oil base and must meet all of the following
|
||
criteria:
|
||
be nonphytotoxic,
|
||
contain only EPA exempt ingredients,
|
||
provide good mixing quality in the jar test, and
|
||
be successful in local experience.
|
||
The exact composition of suitable products will vary; however, vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates should
|
||
contain emulsifiers to provide good mixing quality. Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more satisfactory than
|
||
unrefined vegetable oils.
|
||
For additional information, see Compatibility Test for Mix Components.
|
||
Adjuvants containing crop oil concentrates may be used in preplant, preemergence, and preharvest application, as
|
||
well as in pastures and noncropland. DO NOTuse crop oil concentrate for postemergence in-crop applications
|
||
unless specifically allowed in Crop-specific Information section of this label.
|
||
Additive Rate per Acre
|
||

|
||
Methylated Seed Oil 1 quart*
|
||

|
||
Compatibility Test for Mix Components
|
||
Before mixing components always perform a compatibility jar test. For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3
|
||
cups (800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust accordingly. Only use water from the intended source at the
|
||
source temperature.
|
||
Add components in the sequence indicated in the Mixing Order using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon for
|
||
each pint of label rate per acre.
|
||
Always cap the jar and invert 10 cycles between component additions.
|
||
|
||
8
|
||
|
||
When the components have all been added to the jar, let the solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solution for
|
||
uniformity and stability. The spray solution should not have free oil on the surface, nor fine particles that precipitate
|
||
to the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) texture. If the spray solution is not compatible, repeat the compatibility test with
|
||
the addition of a suitable compatibility agent. If the solution is then compatible, use the compatibility agent as
|
||
directed on its label. If the solution is still incompatible, DO NOTmix the ingredients in the same tank.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
1. Water -Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank three-quarters full of clean water.
|
||
2. Agitation- Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing and application.
|
||
3. Inductor- If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
|
||
4. Products in PVA Bags- Place any product contained in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank.
|
||
Wait until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the product is evenly mixed in the spray
|
||

CROP ROTATION
|
||
The interval between application and planting rotational crop is given below. Always exclude counting days when the
|
||
ground is frozen. Planting at intervals less than specified below may result in crop injury. Moisture is essential for the
|
||
degradation of this herbicide in soil. If dry weather prevails, use cultivation to allow herbicide contact with moist soil.
|
||
•Planting/replanting restrictions for WC-DCB applications of 17 oz/A (0.7438 lb. ae/A) or less.No rotational
|
||
cropping restrictions apply at 120 days or more following application. Additionally, for annual crop uses in this
|
||
label including corn, cotton, sorghum, and soybean, follow the preplant use directions in crop-specific Information.
|
||
For barley, oat, wheat, and other grass seedlings, the interval between application and planting is 15 days per 6
|
||
oz/A (0.2625 lb. ae/A)applied east of the Mississippi River and 22 days per 6 oz/A (0.2625 lb. ae/A)west of the
|
||
Mississippi River.
|
||
•Planting/replanting restrictions for applications of more than 17 oz (0.7438 lb. ae/A) and up to 48 ounces of WC-
|
||
DCB per acre.Corn, sorghum, cotton (east of the Rocky Mountains) and all other crops grown in areas with 30" or
|
||
more of annual rainfall may be planted 120 days or more after application. Barley, oat, wheat, and other grass
|
||
seedlings, may be planted if the interval from application to planting is 30 days per 12 oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A)(east
|
||
of the Mississippi River) and 45 days per 12 oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A) west of the Mississippi River. For all other crops
|
||
in areas with less than 30" of annual rainfall, the interval between application and planting is 180 days or more.

PREPLANT DIRECTIONS (POSTHARVEST, FALLOW. CROP STUBBLE, SET-ASIDE, Prevent Plant) FOR
|
||
BROADLEAF WEED CONTROL
|
||
WC-DCB can be applied either postharvest in the fall, spring, or summer during the fallow period or to crop
|
||
stubble/set-aside acres. Apply WC-DCB as a broadcast or spot treatment to emerged and actively growing weeds
|
||
after crop harvest (postharvest) and before a killing frost or in the fallow cropland or crop stubble the following spring
|
||
or summer.
|
||
See Crop Rotational Restrictions in the Restrictions and Limitations section for the required interval between
|
||
application and planting to prevent crop injury.
|
||
Rates and Timings
|
||
Apply 3 to 24 oz/A (0.1313 – 1.05 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB. Refer to the “Application Rates” section to determine use
|
||
rates for specific targeted weed species. For best performance, apply WC-DCB when annual weeds are less than 6"
|
||
tall, when biennial weeds are in the rosette stage and to perennial weed regrowth in late summer or fall following a
|
||
mowing or tillage treatment. The most effective control of upright perennial broadleaf weeds such as Canada thistle
|
||
and Jerusalem artichoke occurs if WC-DCB is applied when the majority of weeds have at least 4" to 6" of regrowth
|
||
or for weeds such as field bindweed and hedge bindweed that are in or beyond the full bloom stage.
|
||
Avoid disturbing treated areas following application. Treatments may not kill weeds that develop from seed or
|
||
underground plant parts such as rhizomes or bulblets, after the effective period for WC-DCB. For seedling control, a
|
||
follow-up program or other cultural practices could be instituted. For small grain in-crop uses of WC-DCB,refer to
|
||
the small grain section for details.
|
||
DO NOTexceed 24 oz/A (0.1313 – 1.05 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB in a single application or season.

In tank mixes with other suitable registered herbicides, apply 3 to 12 oz/A (0.1313 – 0.525 lb./ ae/A) of WC-DCB for
|
||
control of annual weeds, or 12 to 24 oz/A (0.525 – 1.05 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB for control of biennial and perennial
|
||
weeds. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the
|
||
intended use. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product
|
||
in the tank mixture.
|
||
CORN (Field, Pop, Seed, and Silage)
|
||
Direct contact of WC-DCB with corn seed must be avoided. If corn seeds are less than 1.5" below the soil surface,
|
||
delay application until corn has emerged.
|
||
Applications of WC-DCB to corn during periods of rapid growth may result in temporary leaning. Corn will usually
|
||
become erect within 3 to 7 days. Cultivation should be delayed until after corn is growing normally to avoid
|
||
breakage.
|
||
Corn may be harvested or grazed for feed once the crop has reached the ensilage (milk) stage or later in
|
||
maturity.
|
||
DO NOTexceed 12 oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A in a single application. Up to 2 applications of WC-DCB may be made
|
||
during a growing season. Sequential applications must be separated by 2 weeks or more. DO NOTexceed a total of
|
||
17 oz/A (0.7438 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB per crop year.
|
||
DO NOTapply WC-DCB to seed corn or popcorn without first verifying with your local seed corn company (supplier)
|
||
the selectivity of WC-DCB on your inbred line or variety of popcorn. This precaution will help avoid potential injury of
|
||
sensitive varieties.
|
||
Avoid using crop oil concentrates or methylated seed oil after crop emergence as crop injury may result. Use of crop
|
||
oil concentrates or methylated seed oil are recommended only in dry conditions when corn is less than 5" tall and
|
||
when applying WC-DCB alone or tank mixed with atrazine.
|
||
Use of sprayable fluid fertilizer as the carrier is not recommended for applications of WC-DCB made after corn
|
||
emergence.
|
||
WC-DCB is not registered for use on sweet corn.
|
||
Preplant and Preemergence Application in No-Tillage Corn
|
||
Rates:Apply 12 oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB on medium- or fine-textured soils containing 2.5% or greater
|
||
organic matter. Use 6 oz/A (0.2625 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB on coarse soils (sand, loamy sand, and sandy loam) or
|
||
medium- and fine-textured soils with less than 2.5% organic matter.
|
||
Timing:WC-DCB can be applied to emerged weeds before, during, or after planting a corn crop. When planting into
|
||
a legume sod (e.g. alfalfa or clover), apply WC-DCB after 4" to 6" of regrowth has occurred.
|
||
|
||
12
|
||
|
||
Preemergence Application in Conventional or Reduced Tillage Corn
|
||
Rates:Apply 12 oz (0.525 lb. ae) of WC-DCB per treated acre to medium- or fine-textured soils that contain 2.5%
|
||
organic matter or more. DO NOTapply to coarse-textured soils (sand, loamy sand, or sandy loam) or any soil with
|
||
less than 2.5% organic matter until after corn emergence (see Early Postemergence uses below).
|
||
Timing:WC-DCB may be applied after planting and prior to corn emergence. Preemergence application of WC-
|
||
DCB does not require mechanical incorporation to become active. A shallow mechanical incorporation is
|
||
recommended if the application is not followed by adequate rainfall or sprinkler irrigation. Avoid tillage equipment
|
||
(e.g. drags, harrows) that concentrates treated soil over seed furrow, as seed damage could result.
|
||
Preemergence control of cocklebur, jimsonweed, and velvetleaf may be reduced if conditions such as low
|
||
temperature or lack of soil moisture cause delayed or deep germination of weeds.
|
||
Early Postemergence Application in all Tillage Systems
|
||
Rates: Apply 12 oz (0.525 lb. ae) of WC-DCB per treated acre. Reduce the rate to 6 oz (0.2625 lb. ae) of WC-DCB
|
||
per treated acre for corn grown on coarse-textured soils (sand, loamy sand, and sandy loam).
|
||
Timing: Apply between corn emergence and the 5-leaf stage or 8" tall, whichever occurs first. Refer to Late
|
||
Postemergence Application if the sixth true leaf is emerging from whorl or the corn is greater than 8" tall.
|
||
Late Postemergence Application
|
||
Rate: Apply 6 oz (0.2625 lb. ae) of WC-DCB per treated acre.
|
||
Timing: Apply WC-DCB from 8" to 36" tall corn or 15 days before tassel emergence, whichever comes first. For best
|
||
performance, apply when weeds are less than 3" tall.
|
||
Apply directed spray when com leaves prevent proper spray coverage, sensitive crops are growing nearby, or tank
|
||
mixing with 2,4-D.
|
||
DO NOTapply WC-DCBwhen soybeans are growing nearby if any of these conditions exist:
|
||
•corn is more than 24" tall
|
||
•soybean are more than 10" tall
|
||
•soybean have begun to bloom
|
||

PASTURE, HAY, RANGELAND, AND FARMSTEAD (NONCROPLAND)
|
||
WC-DCB may be used on pasture, hay, rangeland, and farmstead (non-cropland) (including fencerows and non-
|
||
irrigation ditchbanks) for control or suppression of broadleaf weed and brush species listed in the “Weed Control
|
||
Information” section of this label.
|
||
WC-DCB may also be applied to non-cropland areas to control broadleaf weeds in noxious weed control programs,
|
||
districts, or areas including broadcast or spot treatment of roadsides and highways, utilities, railroad, and pipeline
|
||
rights-of-way. Noxious weeds must be recognized at the state level, but programs may be administered at state,
|
||
county, or other level.
|
||
WC-DCB uses described in this section also pertain to small grains (forage sorghum, rye, sudangrass, barley,
|
||
triticale, or wheat) grown for pasture use only.
|
||
Some perennial weeds may be controlled with lower rates of either WC-DCB or WC-DCB plus 2,4-D (refer to the
|
||
“Application Rates” section). It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures
|
||
are registered for the intended use. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary
|
||
statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||

|
||
Newly seeded areas may be severely injured if more than 12 oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB is applied per acre.
|
||
Established grass crops growing under stress can exhibit various injury symptoms that may be more pronounced if
|
||
herbicides are applied. Bentgrass, carpetgrass, buffalo-grass, and St. Augustinegrass may be injured if more than 12
|
||
oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB is applied per acre. Usually colonial bentgrasses are more tolerant than creeping
|
||
types. Velvetgrasses are most easily injured. Treatments will kill or injure alfalfa, clovers, lespedeza, wild winter peas,
|
||
vetch, and other legumes.
|
||

carrier (refer to the Compatibility Test for Mix Components).
|
||
|
||
15
|
||
|
||
To prepare oil in water emulsions, half-fill spray tank with water, then add the appropriate amount of emulsifier. With
|
||
continuous agitation, slowly add the herbicide and then the oil (such as diesel oil or fuel oil) or a premix of oil plus
|
||
additional emulsifier to spray tank. Complete filling of spray tank with water. Maintain vigorous agitation during spray
|
||
operation to prevent oil and water from forming separate layers.
|
||
WC-DCB may be applied broadcast using either ground or aerial application equipment.
|
||
Aerial Application
|
||
Spray Volume. Use 2 to 40 gallons of diluted spray per treated acre in a water-based carrier.
|
||
Ground Application
|
||
Spray Volume. Use 3 to 600 gallons of diluted spray per treated acre. The volume of spray applied will depend
|
||
on the height, density, and type of weeds or brush being treated and on the type of equipment being used.
|
||
Spot Treatments. WC-DCB may be applied to individual clumps or small areas of undesirable vegetation using
|
||
handgun or similar types of application equipment. Apply diluted sprays to allow complete wetting (up to runoff)
|
||
of foliage and stems.
|
||
CUT SURFACE TREATMENTS
|
||
WC-DCB may be applied as a cut surface treatment for control of unwanted trees and prevention of sprouts of cut
|
||
trees.
|
||
Rate:Mix 30 to 90 oz (1.3125 to 3.9375 lbs. ae) WC-DCB with 1-gallon water to create the application solution. Use
|
||
the lower dilution rate when treating difficult-to-control species.
|
||
For Frill or Girdle Treatments: Make a continuous cut or a series of overlapping cuts using an axe to girdle tree
|
||
trunk. Spray or paint the cut surface with the solution.
|
||
For Stump Treatments: Spray or paint freshly cut surface with the water mix. The area adjacent to the bark
|
||
should be thoroughly wet.
|
||
NOTE: For more rapid foliar effects, 2,4-D may be added to the solution.
|
||
APPLICATIONS FOR CONTROL OF DORMANT MULTIFLORA ROSE
|
||
WC-DCB can be applied when plants are dormant as a spot treatment to the soil or as a Lo-Oil basal bark treatment
|
||
using an oil-water emulsion solution.
|
||
Spot treatments. Spot treatment applications of WC-DCB should be applied directly to the soil as close as
|
||
possible to the root crown but within 6" to 8" of the crown. On sloping terrain, apply WC-DCB to the uphill side
|
||
of the crown. DO NOTapply when snow or water prevents applying WC-DCB directly to the soil. The use rate
|
||
of WC-DCB depends on the canopy diameter of the multiflora rose.
|
||
Examples:Use 0.18, 0.72, or 1.7 oz (0.0079, 0.0315, or 0.0744 lb. ae) of WC-DCB respectively, for 5, 10, or 15 feet
|
||
canopy diameters.
|
||
Lo-Oil basal bark treatments. For Lo-Oil basal bark treatments, apply WC-DCB to the basal stem region from the
|
||
ground line to a height of 12" to 18". Spray until runoff, with special emphasis on covering the root crown. For
|
||
best results, apply WC-DCB when plants are dormant. DO NOTapply after bud break or when plants are showing
|
||
signs of active growth. DO NOTapply when snow or water prevents applying WC-DCB to the ground line.
|
||
To prepare approximately 2 gallons of a Lo-Oil spray solution:
|
||
1. Combine 1.5 gallons of water, 1 ounce of emulsifier, 12 oz (0.525 lb. ae) of WC-DCB, and 2.5 pints of No. 2
|
||
diesel fuel.
|
||
2. Adjust the amounts of materials used proportionately to the amount of final spray solution desired.
|
||
DO NOTexceed 8 gallons of spray solution mix applied per acre, per year.
|
||
Pasture Tank Mixes
|
||
WC-DCB may be applied in tank mixes with other suitable registered herbicides It is the pesticide user’s responsibility
|
||
to ensure that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Users must follow the most
|
||
restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAM (CRP)
|
||
WC-DCB may be used on both newly seeded and established grasses grown in Conservation Reserve or federal
|
||
Set-Aside Programs. Treatments of WC-DCB will injure or may kill alfalfa, clovers, lespedeza, wild winter peas,
|
||
vetch, legumes, and other desirable broadleaf plants.
|
||
|
||
16
|
||
|
||
Newly Seeded Areas
|
||
WC-DCB may be applied either preplant or postemergence to newly seeded grasses or small grains including
|
||
barley, oats, rye, sudangrass, wheat, or other grain species grown as a cover crop.
|
||
Postemergence applications may be made after seedling grasses exceed the 3-leaf stage. Rates of WC-DCB
|
||
greater than12 ounces per treated acre may severely injure newly seeded grasses.
|
||
Preplant applications may injure new seedlings if the interval between application and grass planting is less than 45
|
||
days per 12 oz (0.525 lb. ae) of WC-DCB applied per treated acre west of the Mississippi River or 20 days per 12
|
||
oz/A (0.525 lb. ae/A) applied east of the Mississippi River.
|
||
Established Grass Stands
|
||
Established grass stands are perennial grasses planted one or more seasons prior to treatment. Certain species
|
||
(bentgrass. carpetgrass, smooth brome, buffalograss, or St. Augustine grass) may be injured when treated with
|
||
more than 12 ounces of WC-DCB per treated acre. When applied at specified rates. WC-DCB will control many
|
||
annual and biennial weeds and provide control or suppression of many perennial weeds.
|
||
Rates and Timings:Apply 3 to 24 oz/A (0.1313 to 1.05 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB. Refer tothe Application Information
|
||
Section, Additive Rate per Acretable for rates of various additives.WC-DCB may be tank mixed or applied
|
||
sequentially with other suitably registered products labeled for use in Conservation Reserve Programs
|
||
DO NOT exceed 24 oz/A (1.05 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB in a single application.
|
||
Retreatments may be made as needed; however, DO NOTexceed a total of 48 oz (2.1 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB per
|
||
acre.
|
||
CEREAL GRAINS
|
||
Not under seeded to legumes (fall- and spring-seeded barley, oat, triticale and wheat)
|
||
WC-DCB combinations with suitable registered tank mix partners will provide control or suppression of the annual
|
||
broadleaf weeds listed in the “Weed Control Information” section of this label. For improved control of listed weeds,
|
||
tank mix WC-DCB with one or more of suitable registered herbicides. WC-DCB used in a tank mix with other
|
||
herbicides offers the best spectrum of weed control and herbicide tolerant or resistant weed management. Refer to
|
||
the specific section crop for WC-DCB application rate and timing.
|
||
For applications prior to weed emergence or when sulfonylurea-resistant weeds are present or suspected, tank mix
|
||
a minimum of 2 oz (0.0875 lb. ae) of WC-DCB per treated acre with a non-sulfonylurea herbicide including 2,4-D or
|
||
MCPA. Tank mixing WC-DCB with these products will offer more consistent control of sulfonylurea-resistant weeds.
|
||
Additives:
|
||
When tank mixing WC-DCB with suitable registered sulfonylurea use 1 to 4 pints of an agriculturally approved
|
||
surfactant (containing at least 80% active ingredient) per 100 gallons of spray or not more than 0.25 to 0.5% by
|
||
volume. Use the highest rate of surfactant when using the lower rate ranges of the tank mix or when treating more
|
||
mature and difficult to control weeds or dense vegetative growth. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure
|
||
that all products in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Users must follow the most restrictive
|
||
directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
Refer to the specific crop sections below for use rates. When treating difficult to control weeds such as kochia, wild
|
||
buckwheat, cow cockle, prostrate knotweed, Russian thistle, and prickly lettuce or when dense vegetative growth
|
||
occurs, use the 2 to 3 oz (0.0875 to 0.1313 lb. ae) WC-DCB per acre.
|
||
Timings:
|
||
Apply WC-DCB before, during, or after planting small grains. See specific small grain crop uses below for maximum
|
||
crop stage. For best performance, apply WC-DCB when weeds are in the 2 to 3 leaf stage and rosettes are less
|
||
than 2" across. Applying WC-DCB to small grains during periods of rapid growth may result in crop leaning. This
|
||
condition is temporary and will not reduce crop yields.
|
||
Applications to small grains may be made with aerial applications with 1 gallon of water or more per acre. Where
|
||
dense foliage is present, 2 to 3 gallons of water per acre should be used.
|
||
Restrictions for small grain areas that are grazed or cut for hay are indicated in Table 3 inPasture, Hay,
|
||
Rangeland, and Farmstead section of this label.
|
||
CEREAL GRAINS: Barley (fall- and spring-seeded)
|
||
Early Season Applications
|
||
Apply 1.5 to 3 oz/A (0.0656 to 0.1313 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB to fall-seeded barley prior to the jointing stage. Apply 1.5
|
||
to 2 ounces of WC-DCB before spring-seeded barley exceeds the 4-leaf stage.
|
||
|
||
17
|
||
|
||
NOTE:For spring barley varieties that are seeded during the winter months or later, follow the rates and timings
|
||
given for spring-seeded barley.

PREHARVEST APPLICATIONS
|
||
WC-DCB can be used to control weeds that may interfere with harvest of fall- and spring- seeded barley. Apply 6 oz
|
||
(0.2625 lb. ae) of WC-DCB per acre as a broadcast or spot treatment to annual broadleaf weeds when barley is in
|
||
the hard dough stage and the green color is gone from the node (joints) of the stem. Best results will be obtained if
|
||
application can be made when weeds are actively growing, but before weeds canopy.
|
||
A waiting interval of 7 days is required before harvest.
|
||
DO NOTuse preharvest-treated barley for seed unless a germination test is performed on the seed with an
|
||
acceptable result of 95% germination or better.
|
||
For control of additional broadleaf weeds or grasses, WC-DCB may be tank mixed with other herbicides, such as
|
||
2,4-D, that are labeled for preharvest uses in barley.
|
||
DO NOTmake preharvest applications in California.

|
||
SORGHUM
|
||
WC-DCB may be applied preplant, postemergence, or preharvest in sorghum to control many annual broadleaf
|
||
weeds and to reduce competition from established perennial broadleaf weeds, as well as control their seedlings.
|
||
DO NOTgraze or feed treated sorghum forage or silage prior to mature grain stage. If sorghum is grown for pasture
|
||
or hay, refer to Pasture, Hay, Rangeland and Farmstead section of this label for specific grazing and feeding
|
||
restrictions.
|
||
|
||
19
|
||
|
||
DO NOTapply WC-DCB to sorghum grown for seed production.
|
||
Preplant Application
|
||
Up to 6 oz (0.2625 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB may be applied per acre if applied at least 15 days before sorghum
|
||
planting.
|
||
Postemergence Applications
|
||
Up to 6 oz (0.2625 lb. ae) of WC-DCB per acre may be applied after sorghum is in the spike stage (all sorghum
|
||
emerged) but before sorghum is 15" tall. For best performance, apply WC-DCB when the sorghum crop is in the 3 to
|
||
5 leaf stage and weeds are small (less than 3" tall). Use drop pipes (drop nozzles) if sorghum is taller than 8". Keep
|
||
the spray off the sorghum leaves and out of the whorl to reduce the likelihood of crop injury and to improve spray
|
||
coverage of weed foliage.
|
||
Applying WC-DCB to sorghum during periods of rapid growth may result in temporary leaning of plants or rolling of
|
||
leaves. These effects are usually outgrown within 10 to 14 days.
|
||
Preharvest uses in Texas and Oklahoma only:
|
||
Up to 6 oz/A (0.2625 lb. ae/A) of WC-DCB be applied for weed suppression any time after the sorghum has reached

|
||
control or suppress growth of many annual, biennial, and some perennial broadleaf weeds commonly found in turf.
|
||
WC-DCB will also suppress many other listed perennial broadleaf weeds and woody brush and vine species. Refer
|
||
to theApplication Information Section, Additive Rate per Acre table for rates of various additives. Some weed
|
||

Procedure for Cleaning Spray Equipment
|
||
The steps listed below are suggested for thorough cleaning of spray equipment following applications of WC-DCB or
|
||
tank mixes of WC-DCB.
|
||
Step 1: Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner,
|
||
according to the manufacturer's directions, and then triple rinsing the equipment before and after applying this
|
||
product.
|
||
Step 2: Hose down thoroughly the inside as well as outside surfaces of equipment while filling the spray tank half
|
||
full of water. Flush by operating sprayer until the system is purged of the rinse water.
|
||
Step 3: Fill tank with water while adding 1 quart of household ammonia for every 25 gallons of water. Operate the
|
||
pump to circulate the ammonia solution through the sprayer system for 15 to 20 minutes and discharge a small
|
||
amount of the ammonia solution through the boom and nozzles. Let the solution stand for several hours, preferably
|
||
overnight. Flush the solution out of the spray tank through the boom.
|
||
Step 4: Remove the nozzles and screens and flush the system with two full tanks of water.
|
||
The steps listed below are suggested for thorough cleaning of spray equipment used to apply WC-DCB as a tank
|
||
mix with wettable powders (WP) emulsifiable concentrates (EC), or other types of water-dispersible formulations.
|
||
WC-DCB tank mixes with water-dispersible formulations require the use of a water/detergent rinse.
|
||
1. Complete Step 1 (Above).
|
||
2. Fill tank with water while adding 2 lbs of detergent for every 40 gallons of water. Operate the pump to circulate
|
||
the detergent solution through the sprayer system for 5 to 10 minutes and discharge a small amount of the
|
||
solution through the boom and nozzles. Let the solution stand for several hours. preferably overnight.
|
||
3. Flush the detergent solution out of the spray tank through the boom. Repeat step 1 and follow with Steps 2, 3,
|
||
and 4 (Above).
|
||
Directions to Avoid Herbicide Drift:
|
||
Sensitive Crop Precautions:
|
||
WC-DCB may cause injury to desirable trees and plants, particularly beans, cotton, flowers, fruit trees, grapes,
|
||
ornamentals, peas, potatoes, soybeans, sunflowers, tobacco, tomatoes, and other broadleaf plants when
|
||
contacting their roots, stems, or foliage. These plants are most sensitive to WC-DCB during their development or
|
||
growing stage.
|
||
DO NOTmake applications when spray particles may be carried by air currents to areas where sensitive crops
|
||
and plants are growing. DO NOTspray near sensitive plants if wind is gusty or in excess of 5 mph and moving in
|
||
the direction of adjacent sensitive crops. Leave an adequate buffer zone between area to be treated and only
|
||
sensitive plants. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift out of the target area than fine sprays.
|
||
Use coarse sprays (volume median diameter of 400 microns or more) to avoid potential herbicide drift. Select
|
||
nozzles that are designed to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles (less than 200 microns). Examples
|
||
of nozzles designed to produce coarse sprays via ground applications are Delavan® Raindrops, Spraying
|
||
|
||
22
|
||
|
||
Systems XR (excluding 110° tips) flat fans, Turbo Teejets®, Turbo Floodjets®, or large capacity flood nozzles
|
||
such as D10, TK10, or greater capacity tips.
|
||
Keep the spray pressure at or below 20 psi and the spray volume at or above 20 gallons per acre (for ground
|
||
broadcast applications), unless otherwise required by the manufacturer of drift-reducing nozzles. Consult your
|
||
spray nozzle supplier concerning the choice of drift-reducing nozzles.
|
||
DO NOTapply WC-DCB adjacent to sensitive crops when the temperature on the day of application is expected
|
||
to exceed 85° F as drift is more likely to occur.
|
||
Agriculturally approved drift-reducing additives may be used.
|
||
Aerial Application and Equipment:
|
||
DO NOTUSE AERIAL APPLICATION EQUIPMENT IF SPRAY PARTICLES CAN BE CARRIED BY WIND INTO
|
||
AREAS WHERE SENSITIVE CROPS OR PLANTS ARE GROWING.
|
||
Use coarse sprays:WC-DCB must not be applied during periods of gusty wind or when wind is in excess of 15
|
||
mph as uneven spray coverage may occur.
|
||
Water Volume:Use 1 to 10 gallons of water per acre (2 to 20 gallons of diluted spray per treated acre for
|
||
preharvest uses). Use the higher spray volume when treating dense or tall vegetation.
|
||
Select nozzles designed to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles. Make aerial applications at the lowest
|
||
safe height to reduce exposing the spray to evaporation and wind. The applicator must follow the most restrictive
|
||
use cautions to avoid drift hazards, including those found in this labeling, as well as state and local regulations and
|
||
ordinances. DO NOTuse aerial equipment if spray particles can be carried by the wind into areas where sensitive
|
||
crops or plants are growing or when temperature inversions exist.
|
||
Ground Application and Equipment:
|
||
Ground Application (Banding)-Bandwidth in inches X Broadcast RATE per treated acre = Band RATE per treated acre.
|
||
Row width in inches
|
||
-Bandwidth in inches X Broadcast VOLUME per treated acre = Band VOLUME per treated acre.
|
||
Row width in inches
|
||
Ground Application (Broadcast)-Water Volume
|
||
Use 3 to 50 gallons of spray solution per broadcast acre for optimal performance. Use the higher spray
|
||
volume when treating dense or tall vegetation.
|
||
-Application Equipment
|
||
Use coarse sprays. Select nozzles designed to produce minimal amounts of fine spray particles. Spray with
|
||
nozzles as close to the weeds as is practical for good weed coverage.
|
||
WC-DCB must not be applied during periods of gusty wind or when wind is in excess of 15 mph as uneven
|
||
spray coverage may occur.
|
||
Ground Applications (Wipers)
|
||
WC-DCB may be applied through wiper application equipment to control or suppress actively growing broadleaf
|
||
weeds, brush, and vines. Use a solution containing 90 ounces WC-DCB per 1-gallon water. DO NOTcontact
|
||
desirable vegetation with herbicide solution. Wiper application may be made to crops (including pastures) and
|
||
non-cropland areas described in this label with the exception of cotton, sorghum, and soybean.
