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).

|
||
ly with soap and water after handling and before eating,
|
||
drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet.
|
||
Wear protective eyewear (goggles or face shield). Pro-
|
||
longed or frequently repeated skin contact may cause
|
||
allergic reactions in some individuals.
|
||
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
|
||
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
|
||
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
|
||
• Shoes plus socks
|
||

|
||
For aerial application, mixers and loaders must also wear a
|
||
minimum of a NIOSH approved filtering face piece respira-
|
||
tor with any N filter (TC-84A). You can also use other
|
||

|
||
protection, including a half face or full face respirator with
|
||
any filter or a powered air purifying respirator with an HE
|
||
filter. For more information about these options, see
|
||

|
||
separately from other laundry. Remove and wash contami-
|
||
nated clothing before reuse. Discard clothing and other
|
||
absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily
|
||
contaminated with this product’s concentrate. DO NOT
|

|
||
Engineering Controls
|
||
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or air-
|
||
craft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the
|
||
Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesti-
|
||
cides [40 CFR 170.607(d-e)], the handler PPE requirements
|
||
may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
|
||
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
|
||
Applicators and other handlers should:
|
||
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets
|
||
inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean
|
||
clothing.
|
||
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product.
|
||
Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon
|
||
as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean
|
||
clothing.
|
||
Environmental Hazards
|
||
For terrestrial uses, DO NOT apply directly to water, areas
|
||
where surface water is present, or intertidal areas below
|
||
the mean high water mark. DO NOT contaminate water
|
||
when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate.
|
||
Groundwater Advisory. Saflufenacil and pyroxasulfone
|
||
have properties and characteristics associated with chemi-
|
||
cals detected in groundwater. These chemicals may leach
|
||
into groundwater if used in areas where soils are perme-
|
||
able, particularly where the water table is shallow.
|
||
Dimethenamid-P has properties that may result in ground-
|
||
water contamination. Application in areas where soils are
|
||
permeable or coarse and groundwater is near the surface
|
||
could result in groundwater contamination.
|
||
FIRST AID
|
||
If in eyes
|
||
• Hold eyes open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 to 20 minutes.
|
||
• Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes; then continue rinsing.
|
||
• Call a poison control center for treatment advice.
|
||
If swallowed
|
||
• Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice.
|
||
• DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to by a poison control center or doctor.
|
||
• Have a person sip a glass of water if able to swallow.
|
||
• DO NOT give anything to an unconscious person.
|
||
If on skin
|
||
• Take off contaminated clothing.
|
||
• Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes.
|
||
• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
|
||
If inhaled
|
||
• Move person to fresh air.
|
||
• If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance; then give artificial respiration, preferably
|
||
by mouth to mouth, if possible.
|
||
• Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice.
|
||
HOTLINE NUMBER
|
||
Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or doctor or going for treatment.
|
||
You may also contact BASF Corporation for emergency medical treatment information: 1-800-832-HELP (4357).
|
||
|
||

|
||
Surface Water Advisory. DO NOT apply directly to
|
||
water, to areas where surface water is present, or to inter-
|
||
tidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift and
|
||
runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water
|
||
adjacent to treated areas. DO NOT contaminate water
|
||
when disposing of equipment washwa ter or rinsate. This
|
||
product may impact surface water due to runoff of rainwa-
|
||
ter. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils
|
||
with shallow groundwater. This product is classified as
|
||
having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff
|
||
for several months or more after application. A level,
|
||
well-maintained buffer strip between areas to which this
|
||
product is applied and surface water features including
|
||
ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential load-
|
||
ing of this chemical from runoff water and sediment.
|
||
Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applica-
|
||
tion when rainfall is forecast to occur within 48 hours.
|
||
Point-source Contamination. To prevent point-source
|
||
contamination, DO NOT mix or load this or any other pes-
|
||
ticide product within 50 feet of wells (including abandoned
|
||
wells and drainage wells), sinkholes, perennial or intermit-
|
||
tent streams and rivers, and natural or impounded lakes
|
||
and reservoirs. This setback does not apply to properly
|
||
capped or plugged abandoned wells and does not apply
|
||
to impervious pad or dike mixing/loading areas described
|
||
as follows.
|
||
Mixing, loading, rinsing, or washing operations performed
|
||
within 50 feet of a well are allowed only when conducted
|
||
on an impervious pad constructed to withstand the weight
|
||
of the heaviest load that may be on or move across the
|
||
pad. The pad must be self-contained to prevent surface
|
||
water flow over or from the pad. The pad capacity must be
|
||
maintained at 110% that of the largest pesticide container
|
||
or application equipment used on the pad and have suffi-
|
||
cient capacity to contain all product spills, equipment or
|
||
container leaks, equipment washwater, and rainwater that
|
||
may fall on the pad. The containment capacity does not
|
||
apply to vehicles delivering pesticide shipments to the mix-
|
||
ing and/or loading site. States may have in effect additional
|
||
requirements regarding wellhead setbacks and operational
|
||
containment.
|
||
Care must be taken when using this product to prevent:
|
||
• Back-siphoning into wells
|
||
• Spills
|
||
• Improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixes, or
|
||
rinsates
|
||
Check valves or anti-siphoning devices must be used on
|
||
all mixing equipment.
|
||
Movement Dissolved in Runoff or Through Soil.
|
||
DO NOT apply under conditions that favor runoff.
|
||
DO NOT apply to impervious substrates including paved
|
||
or highly compacted surfaces or frozen soils. Groundwater
|
||
contamination may occur in areas where soils are perme-
|
||
able or coarse and groundwater is near the surface. To
|
||
minimize the possibility of groundwater contamination,
|
||
carefully follow application rate specifications as affected
|
||
by soil type in the Application Instructions section of
|
||
this label. DO NOT apply if all 3 criteria exist:
|
||
1. Coarse soils classified as sand (does not include loamy
|
||
sand or sandy loam)
|
||
2. Less than 3% organic matter (as determined by soil
|
||
tests, if not known)
|
||
3. Where depth to groundwater is 30 feet or less
|
||
Movement by Water Erosion of Treated Soil. DO NOT
|
||
apply or incorporate this product by flood or furrow irriga-
|
||
tion. Ensure treated areas have received at least 1/2 inch
|
||
of rainfall before using tailwater for subsequent irrigation of
|
||
other fields.

Product Information
|
||
Verdict® Trio Powered by Kixor® herbicide (henceforth
|
||
in this label referred to as Verdict Trio) is a selective resid-
|
||
ual preemergence herbicide for controlling most annual
|
||
grass weeds, annual broadleaf weeds, and sedges in field
|
||
corn, popcorn, processing sweet corn, and soybean (refer
|
||
to Table 1 for a list of weeds controlled preemergence).
|
||
Residual preemergence application of Verdict Trio must
|
||
be activated by at least 1/2 inch of rainfall or sprinkler irri-
|
||
gation before weed seedling emergence. When
|
||
Verdict Trio is not activated, a labeled postemergence
|
||
herbicide or cultivation may be needed to control weed
|
||
escapes.
|
||
Verdict Trio also provides contact burndown of many
|
||
broadleaf weeds (refer to Table 2 for a list of weeds con-
|
||
trolled by a burndown application). An adjuvant (refer to
|
||
Additives section for details) is required with Verdict Trio
|
||
for optimum broadleaf burndown activity. Burndown appli-
|
||
cation of Verdict Trio must be made when broadleaf
|
||
weeds are small and actively growing. Burndown activity
|
||
may be slowed or reduced under cloudy and/or foggy or
|
||
cooler weather conditions, or when weeds are growing
|
||
under drought or other stress conditions. When targeting
|
||
dense weed populations and/or larger broadleaf weeds,
|
||
use higher spray volumes. Angling nozzles forward (to
|
||
45 degrees) may improve penetration of denser weed
|
||
canopies.
|
||
Tank mixes with contact herbicides (e.g. carfentrazone,
|
||
paraquat) may reduce the burndown activity of
|
||
Verdict Trio.

1 Control of seedling stage and suppression of perennial growth stage
|
||
2 Populations of noted weeds exist that are known to be resistant to burndown applications of Group 14/Group E herbicides and will not be con-
|
||
trolled by herbicides like Verdict Trio. See the Herbicide Resistance Management section for practices to manage and minimize the impact of
|
||
resistant weeds (e.g. tank mixes or alternation with other herbicide modes of action, crop rotation, and mechanical control).
|
||
|
||
10
|
||
Mode of Action
|
||
Verdict® Trio herbicide contains three active herbicide
|
||
ingredients. Saflufenacil is a potent inhibitor of
|
||
protoporphyrin- ogenoxidase belonging to herbicide mode-
|
||
of-action Group 14 (WSSA)/Group E (HRAC).
|
||
Dimethenamid-P is a chloroacetamide belonging to the her-
|
||
bicide mode-of- action Group 15 (WSSA)/Group K
|
||
3
|
||
(HRAC). Pyroxasulfone is a potent inhibitor of very long
|
||
chain fatty acid (VLCFA) synthesis, also belonging to herbi-
|
||
cide mode-of-action Group 15 (WSSA) /Group K
|
||
3
|
||
(HRAC). Saflufenacil is rapidly absorbed by roots and foli-
|
||
age. Following inhibition of the protoporphyrinogen-
|
||
oxidase, plant death is the result of membrane damage.
|
||
Under active growing conditions, susceptible emerging
|
||
weed seedlings usually develop chlorotic and necrotic inju-
|
||
ry symptoms within hours and die within a few days.
|
||
Susceptible germinating weed seeds usually die as they
|
||
reach the soil surface or shortly after emergence.
|
||
Dimethenamid-P and pyroxasulfone are root-and-shoot
|
||
inhibitors that control susceptible weed seedlings before or
|
||
soon after they emerge from the soil.
|
||
Herbicide Resistance Management
|
||
For resistance management, Verdict Trio contains both a
|
||
Group 14/Group E herbicide and Group 15/Group K3
|
||
herbicides. Any weed population may contain plants natu-
|
||
rally resistant to Group 14 and/or Group 15 herbicides.
|
||
The resistant individuals may dominate the weed population
|
||
if these herbicides are used repeatedly are used repeatedly
|
||
in the same fields. Appropriate resistant-management strat-
|
||
egies should be followed.
|
||
To delay herbicide resistance consider:
|
||
• Avoiding the consecutive use of herbicides that have a
|
||
similar target-site-of-action on the same weed species.
|
||
• Using tank mixes or premixes with herbicides from
|
||
different target-site-of-action groups as long as the
|
||
involved products are all registered for the same use,
|
||
have different sites of action, and are both effective at the
|
||
tank mix or prepack rate on the weed(s) of concern.
|
||
• Basing herbicide use on a comprehensive IPM
|
||
(Integrated Pest Management) program including cultural
|
||
and mechanical methods.
|
||
• Monitoring treated weed populations for loss of field effi-
|
||
cacy, and control of escapes with effective alternative
|
||
herbicides or mechanical methods.
|
||
• Identify weeds present in the field through scouting and
|
||
field history and understand their biology. The weed-
|
||
control program needs to consider all of the weeds
|
||
present.
|
||
• Scout fields prior to application to identify the weed spe-
|
||
cies present and their growth stage to determine if the
|
||
intended application will be effective.
|
||
• Scout fields after application to verify the treatment was
|
||
effective.
|
||
• Suspected herbicide-resistance weeds may be identified
|
||
by these indicators:
|
||
1. Failure to control a weed species normally controlled
|
||
by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if con-
|
||
trol is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
2. A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a partic-
|
||
ular weed species; and
|
||
3. Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of
|
||
the same species.
|
||
• If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with a
|
||
herbicide with a different MOA and/or use non-chemical
|
||
methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal
|
||
of preventing further seed production.
|
||
• Report any incidence of non-performance of this product
|
||
against a particular weed species to your BASF
|
||
representative.
|
||
• Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop
|
||
advisors, and/or manufacturer for herbicide resistance
|
||
management and/or integrated weed management
|
||
directions for specific crops and resistant weed biotypes.
|
||
Crop Response
|
||
No crop injury is expected when Verdict Trio is applied
|
||
according to label directions as a preplant to pre-
|
||
emergence treatment and under normal environ mental
|
||
conditions. Crop injury may occur when application is
|
||
made under stressful growing conditions (e.g. drought or
|
||
excessive moisture for normal crop development, extreme
|
||
hot or cold temperatures, seedling disease, low soil fertility,
|
||
high soil pH, high soil salt concentration, or other pesticide
|
||
injury.
|
||
Severe crop injury will result if Verdict Trio is applied
|
||
postemergence (over the top) to corn or soybean.
|
||
Application Instructions
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied preplant surface, preplant
|
||
incorporated, or preemergence to field corn, popcorn, pro-
|
||
cessing sweet corn, and soybean. Apply Verdict Trio only
|
||
before crop emergence.
|
||
Rainfastness - Verdict Trio is rainfast 1 hour after appli-
|
||
cation. Burndown activity may be reduced if rain or
|
||
irrigation occurs within 1 hour of application.
|
||
Application Rate
|
||
Application rates of Verdict Trio for residual pre-
|
||
emergence weed control may vary depending on soil
|
||
texture and organic matter. Refer to Table 3 for soil texture
|
||

Application Timing
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied preplant surface, preplant
|
||
incorporated, preemergence, or in the fall. Refer to the
|
||
Crop-specific Information section for specific applica-
|
||
tion instructions (timings, rates, restrictions and
|
||
precautions) by crop.
|
||
Preplant Surface Application. Apply Verdict Trio alone
|
||
or in tank mix within 30 days of planting. If weeds are pres-
|
||
ent at the time of application, use additional weed control
|
||
methods, for example a tank mix with an appropriate
|
||
postemergence herbicide(s), to control emerged weeds.
|
||
Burndown control of emerged grass weeds or additional
|
||
broadleaf weeds not listed on the label requires a tank mix
|
||
with another herbicide.
|
||
Preplant Incorporated (PPI) Application. Incorporate
|
||
Verdict Trio into the upper (1 to 2 inches) soil surface
|
||
within 14 days of planting. Deeper incorporation may
|
||
increase the potential for crop injury and also may result in
|
||
reduced weed control. Use appropriate equipment for uni-
|
||
form shallow incorporation, including a field cultivator,
|
||
harrow, rolling cultivator, or finishing disc.
|
||
Preemergence Surface Application. After planting and
|
||
before crop emergence, apply a uniform broadcast treat-
|
||
ment to the soil surface. Apply Verdict Trio only to a
|
||
uniform seedbed which is firm and free of clods, cracks,
|
||
excess trash (previous crop residue), and weed growth. If
|
||
weeds are present, apply Verdict Trio in a tank mix with
|
||
an appro priate postemergence herbicide, for example a
|
||
glyphosate-containing product. Burndown control of
|
||
emerged grass weeds or additional broadleaf weeds not
|
||
listed on the label requires a tank mix with another
|
||
herbicide.

nating in the fall, or winter weeds. Verdict Trio may be
|
||
broadcast surface applied in the fall after crop harvest.
|
||
DO NOT apply to frozen or snow-covered soil. Tillage oper-
|
||
ations may be conducted before or after applying
|
||
Verdict Trio. If tillage is used following an application, tillage
|
||
must be shallow (no more than 2-inches deep) to uniformly
|
||
incorporate the herbicide into the upper soil surface.
|
||
Application Methods and Equipment
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied by aerial or ground applica-
|
||
tion or by chemigation application via sprinkler irrigation.
|
||
Thorough spray coverage is required for optimum weed
|
||
control and can be improved with proper adjuvant, nozzle,
|
||
and spray volume selection. Use and configure application
|
||
equipment to provide an adequate spray volume, an accu-
|
||
rate and uniform distribution of spray droplets over the
|
||
treated area, and to avoid spray drift to nontarget areas.
|
||
Adjust equipment to maintain continuous agitation during
|
||
spraying with good mechanical or bypass agitation. Avoid
|
||
overlaps that increase rates above the use rates specified
|
||
in this label.
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied using water or sprayable fluid
|
||
nitrogen fertilizer solutions as the spray carrier. Additionally,
|
||
Verdict Trio may be impregnated on and applied with dry
|
||
bulk fertilizer.
|
||
Aerial Spray Carrier Volume. Use 3 or more gallons of
|
||
water per acre. The actual minimum spray volume per acre
|
||
is determined by the spray equipment used. Use adequate
|
||
spray volume to provide accurate and uniform distribution
|
||
of spray particles over the treated area.
|
||
Ground Spray Carrier Volume. Use 3 or more gallons of
|
||
water per treated acre or 20 or more gallons of sprayable
|
||
fluid nitrogen fertilizer per treated acre. Thorough coverage
|
||
of existing vegetation is essential for burndown applica-
|
||
tions and higher spray vol umes may be necessary for
|
||
better performance.
|
||
|
||

|
||
Mandatory Spray Drift Management
|
||
Aerial Applications
|
||
- DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 ft
|
||
above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater applica-
|
||
tion height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
- For all applications, applicators are required to use a
|
||
medium to ultra coarse spray droplet size
|
||
(ASABE S572.1).
|
||
- The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wing-
|
||
span for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade diameter
|
||
for helicopters.
|
||
- Applicators must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind
|
||
at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
- Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed
|
||
toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||
- DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles
|
||
per hour at the application site.
|
||
- DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
Ground Applications
|
||
- Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the
|
||
manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the
|
||
ground or crop canopy.
|
||
- For all applications, applicators are required to use a
|
||
medium to ultra coarse spray droplet size
|
||
(ASABE S572.1).
|
||
- DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles
|
||
per hour at the application site.
|
||
- DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
Buffer Restrictions
|
||
Aerial Applications
|
||
To avoid potential adverse effects to nontarget areas,
|
||
applicators must maintain a 120-foot buffer between
|
||
the application area and the closest downwind edge
|
||
of nontarget terrestrial habitats (including grasslands,
|
||
forested areas, shelter belts, woodlots, hedgerows,
|
||
riparian areas, shrub lands, and crop lands).
|
||
Ground Applications
|
||
To avoid potential adverse effects to nontarget areas,
|
||
applicators must maintain a 60-foot buffer between
|
||
the application area and the closest downwind edge
|
||
of nontarget terrestrial habitats (including grasslands,
|
||
forested areas, shelter belts, woodlots, hedgerows,
|
||
riparian areas, shrub lands, and crop lands).
|
||
Spray Drift Advisories
|
||
The applicator is responsible for avoiding off-site spray
|
||
drift. Be aware of nearby nontarget sites and environmen-
|
||
tal 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 Volume
|
||
Volume. Increasing the spray volume so that larger drop-
|
||
lets 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.
|
||
Pressure. Use the lowest spray pressure recommended
|
||
for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and
|
||
droplet size.
|
||
Spray Nozzle. Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the
|
||
intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to
|
||
reduce drift.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft Adjust Nozzles
|
||
Follow nozzle manufacturers recommendations for setting
|
||
up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles
|
||
must 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 must remain level with the
|
||
crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||
Release Height - Aircraft
|
||
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
|
||
When applying aerially to crops, DO NOT release spray at
|
||
a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy,
|
||
unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot
|
||
safety.
|
||
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
|
||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use
|
||
larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
|
||
Temperature Inversion
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Tem-
|
||
perature 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. Avoid applica-
|
||
tions during temperature inversions.
|
||
Wind
|
||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID
|
||
APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND
|
||
CONDITIONS.
|
||
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns
|
||
and terrain that could affect spray drift.

|
||
Chemigation Application via Sprinkler
|
||
Irrigation Systems
|
||
Verdict® Trio herbicide may be applied as a chemigation
|
||
treatment through sprinkler irrigation systems. Apply this
|
||
product ONLY through a sprinkler irrigation system of the
|
||
following type: center pivot, end tow, hand move, lateral
|
||
move, side (wheel) roll, or solid set. DO NOT apply this
|
||
product through any other type of sprinkler irriga-
|
||
tion system. Application may be made alone or in tank
|
||
mixes with other herbicides on this label registered for use
|
||
in specified sprinkler irrigation systems. Application must
|
||
be made within specific crop stage timings and product
|
||
use rates given in the container directions for use label.
|
||
Uniform distribution of Verdict Trio-treated irrigation water
|
||
is the sole responsibility of the applicator and is required to
|
||
avoid crop injury, lack of herbicide effectiveness, or illegal
|
||
pesticide residues in the crop. For calibration questions,
|
||
contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment
|
||
manufacturers, or other experts.
|
||
Proper calibration is the responsibility of the applicator. The
|
||
system must be calibrated (with water only) to ensure the
|
||
amount of Verdict Trio applied corresponds to the speci-
|
||
fied rate. Apply Verdict Trio in volume minimums of
|
||
0.33 to 0.67 inches of water using the lower volume for
|
||
coarse-texture soils and the higher volume for fine-texture
|
||
soils. Applications made in high volumes of water (more
|
||
than 1 inch) may result in reduced weed control.
|
||
Meter herbicide dilution into irrigation water through the
|
||
entire time of water application for center pivot and lateral
|
||
move systems. For solid-set and hand-move irrigation
|
||
systems, apply Verdict Trio through the system at the
|
||
beginning of the set; then follow with additional water to
|
||
reach volume minimums as listed by soil type. To increase
|
||
calibration accuracy of injection metering equipment, dilute
|
||
Verdict Trio in a minimum of 3 parts water to 1 part
|
||
Verdict Trio. Maintain agitation in injection nurse tanks to
|
||
keep a uniform herbicide suspension during application.
|
||
Restrictions for chemigation:
|
||
1. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond
|
||
the area intended for treatment.
|
||
2. DO NOT connect an irrigation system used for pesticide
|
||
application to a public water system unless the pesticide
|
||
label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems
|
||
are in place.
|
||
3. 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 if the need arise.
|
||
4. Tail water (runoff water) from chemigation that contains
|
||
Verdict Trio must be recirculated and/or contained in
|
||
the field in a cistern or holding reservoir from the initial
|
||
application and/or used only on adjacent, approved
|
||
crops for which Verdict Trio is registered for this type
|
||
of application.
|
||
5. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional,
|
||
automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow
|
||
of fluid back toward the injection pump. It 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.
|
||
6. The sprinkler chemigation system must contain a func-
|
||
tional check valve, vacuum-relief valve, and
|
||
low-pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation
|
||
pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from
|
||
backflow. In addition, systems must use a metering
|
||
pump, like a positive displacement injection pump
|
||
(e.g. diaphragm pump) effectively designed and con-
|
||
structed of materials compatible with pesticides and
|
||
capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
|
||
7. The sprinkler chemigation system must contain function-
|
||
al interlocking controls to automatically shut off the
|
||
pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor
|
||
stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when
|
||
the water pressure decreases to the point where pesti-
|
||
cide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
8. The irrigation line or water pump must include a func-
|
||
tional pressure switch that will stop the water pump
|
||
motor when the water pressure decreases to the point
|
||
where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
Chemigation systems connected to public water
|
||
systems:
|
||
1. Public water system means a system for the provision to
|
||
the public of piped water for human consumption if 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.
|
||
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water sys-
|
||
tems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone
|
||
backflow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in
|
||
the water supply line upstream from the point of pesti-
|
||
cide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water
|
||
from the public water system may be discharged into a
|
||
reservoir tank before pesticide introduction. There shall
|
||
be a complete physical break (air gap) between the out-
|
||
let end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the
|
||
reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the
|
||
fill pipe.
|
||
3. All chemigation systems connected to public water sys-
|
||
tems must also follow restrictions listed in the preceding
|
||
section.
|
||
Ground Application (dry bulk fertilizer)
|
||
Verdict Trio may be impregnated or coated onto dry bulk
|
||
granular fertilizer carriers for residual soil surface applica-
|
||
tion. Impregnation or coating may be conducted by
|
||
in-plant bulk or on-board systems. Perform the mixing
|
||
operation in well-ventilated areas.
|
||
Addition of a drying agent may be necessary if the fertilizer
|
||
and herbicide blend is too wet for uniform application
|
||
because of high humidity, high urea concentration, or low
|
||
fertilizer use rate. Slowly add the drying agent to the blend
|
||
until a flowable mixture is obtained. Drying agents are not
|
||
recommended for use with on-board impregnation
|
||
systems.
|
||
|
||
14
|
||
Under some conditions, fertilizer impregnated with
|
||
Verdict® Trio herbicide may clog air tubes or deflector
|
||
plates on pneumatic application systems. Mineral oil may
|
||
be added to Verdict Trio before blending with fertilizer to
|
||
reduce plugging. DO NOT use drying agents when miner-
|
||
al oil is used. To avoid separation of Verdict Trio and
|
||
mineral oil mixes in cold temperatures, keep mixture heat-
|
||
ed or agitated before blending with fertilizer. Mineral oil
|
||
may be used at in-plant blending stations or on-board
|
||
injection systems.
|
||
Generally, fertilizer application rates of at least 200 lbs to
|
||
700 lbs per acre of herbicide and fertilizer blend provide
|
||
adequate distribution or coverage for Verdict Trio across
|
||
the soil surface. Apply uniformly to the soil to prevent pos-
|
||
sible crop injury and offer satisfactory weed control.
|
||
Impregnat ed fertilizer spread at 1/2 rate and overlapped for
|
||
a full rate offer a more uniform distribution. Use shallow
|
||
(less than 2 inches) incorporation for improved weed con-
|
||
trol. Deeper incorporation dilutes the herbicide layer near
|
||
the soil surface and may result in unsatisfactory weed
|
||
control.
|
||
To calculate the herbicide rate when using dry bulk fertiliz-
|
||
er applications:
|
||
fl ozs herbicide per acre x 2000 = fl ozs herbicide
|
||
per ton of fertilizerpounds fertilizer per acre
|
||
Cleaning Spray Equipment
|
||
Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a strong
|
||
detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the
|
||
manufacturer’s directions, followed by triple rinsing the
|
||
equipment before and after applying this product.
|
||
Additives
|
||
For optimum burndown activity with Verdict Trio, an adju-
|
||
vant system must be used that includes the following:
|
||
Adjuvant Rate
|
||
Methylated seed oil (MSO)1 1 gal/100 gals (1% v/v)2
|
||
PLUS PLUS
|
||
Ammonium sulfate (AMS)
|
||
or
|
||
Urea ammonium nitrate (UAN)
|
||
8.5 to 17.0 lbs/100 gals
|
||
(1% to 2% w/v)
|
||
or
|
||
1.25 to 2.5 gals/100
|
||
gals (1.25% to 2.5% v/v)
|
||
1 MSO-based adjuvant MUST contain at least 60% methylated seed oil.
|
||
Poor performance may occur with adjuvants containing less than
|
||
60% methylated seed oil.
|
||
2 DO NOT use less than 1 pint/A of MSO with low-volume (less than
|
||
12.5 gallons/A) aerial or ground applications.
|
||
When fluid fertilizer is used as the spray carrier, add
|
||
1 pint/A of MSO for optimum burndown activity.
|
||
The use of AMS fertilizer is highly recommended when
|
||
mixing Verdict Trio with glyphosate-based herbicides.
|
||
DO NOT use a nonionic surfactant (NIS) as a substitute for
|
||
MSO or poor performance on broadleaf weeds will occur.
|
||
When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, BASF
|
||
recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and
|
||
Distributors Association (CPDA) certified adjuvant.
|
||
Tank Mixing Information
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all
|
||
products in the mixtures are registered for the intended
|
||
use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limita-
|
||
tions and directions for use on all product labels involved in
|
||
tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive direc-
|
||
tions for use and precautionary statements of each
|
||
product in the tank mixture.
|
||
Verdict Trio may be tank mixed or applied sequentially
|
||
with other herbicide products registered for use in any
|
||
labeled crop found in this label for a broader spectrum of
|
||
residual weed control and/or control of emerged weeds.
|
||
Refer to the tank mix product labels to confirm that the
|
||
respective tank mix products are registered for use on the
|
||
labeled crop. Read and follow tank mix product labels for
|
||
application instructions, use restrictions and precau tions,
|
||
and rotational cropping guidance.
|
||
Compatibility Test for Mix Components
|
||
Before mixing components, always perform a compatibility
|
||
jar test.
|
||
1. For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups
|
||
(800 mL) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates
|
||
accordingly. Only use water from the intended source at
|
||
the source temperature.
|
||
2. Add components in the sequence indicated in the
|
||
Mixing Order section using 2 teaspoons for each
|
||
pound or 1 teaspoon for each pint of labeled use rate
|
||
per acre.
|
||
3. Always cap the jar and invert 10 cycles between com-
|
||
ponent additions.
|
||
4. When the components have all been added to the jar,
|
||
let the solution stand for 15 minutes.
|
||
5. Evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. The
|
||
spray solution must not have free oil on the surface, or
|
||
fine particles that precipitate to the bottom, or thick
|
||
(clabbered) texture. If the spray solution is not compati-
|
||
ble, repeat the compatibility test with the addition of a
|
||
suitable compatibility agent. If the solution is then com-
|
||
patible, use the compatibility agent as directed on its
|
||
label. If the solution is still incompatible, DO NOT mix
|
||
the ingredients in the same tank.
|
||
Ammonium thiosulfate (ATS): BASF recommends using
|
||
a compatability agent when tank mixing ammonium
|
||
thiosulfate fertilizers with Verdict Trio or Verdict Trio tank
|
||
mixtures.
|
||
|
||
15
|
||
Mixing Order
|
||
Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing and applica-
|
||
tion until spraying is completed.
|
||
1. Water - Fill tank 1/2 to 3/4 full with clean water and start
|
||
agitation.
|
||
2. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly
|
||
after each component has been added.
|
||
3. 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 tank before
|
||
continuing.
|
||
4. Water-soluble additives (including dry and liquid fer-
|
||
tilizers AMS or UAN)
|
||
5. Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable
|
||
powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-emulsions
|
||
- Add Verdict
|
||
® Trio herbicide at this point in the mix-
|
||
ing process)
|
||
6. Water-soluble products
|
||
7. Emulsifiable concentrates (including MSO adjuvants)
|
||
8. Remaining quantity of water
|
||
If the spray mixture is allowed to settle for any period of
|
||
time, thorough agitation is essential to resuspend spray
|
||
mixture before spraying is resumed. Continue agitation
|
||
while spraying.
|
||

|
||
of the current crop. Depending on the sensitivity of the sown cover crop to Verdict Trio, stand establishment may be reduced. If cover crops are
|
||
sown for conservation purposes less than 4 months after Verdict Trio application, DO NOT harvest as a food or feed crop, and DO NOT allow
|
||
livestock to graze cover crops.

|
||
Crop-specific Information
|
||
Read product information, mixing, application, weeds con-
|
||
trolled, and adjuvant instructions in preceding sections of
|
||
the label.
|
||
Depending on specific crop application directions,
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied for residual control of germi-
|
||
nating weed seedlings before planting (preplant) or after
|
||
planting but before crop emergence (preemergence) (refer
|
||
to Table 1 for list of weeds controlled) or burndown con-
|
||
trol of emerged broadleaf weeds (refer to Table 2 for list of
|
||
weeds controlled).
|
||
Thorough spray coverage is required for control of
|
||
emerged broadleaf weeds. High populations and/or varia-
|
||
tions in weed size can prevent adequate spray coverage.
|
||
Controlling fall-germinated weeds in the spring
|
||
(e.g. horseweed/marestail) also requires thorough spray
|
||
coverage. Use higher spray volumes (e.g. 15 to 20 gallons
|
||
of water per acre) in these situations to increase spray cov-
|
||
erage and optimize burndown activity.
|
||
Field Corn (grain, seed, silage),
|
||
Popcorn, and Sweet Corn
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied preplant surface, preplant
|
||
incorporated, or preemergence to corn. Corn in this label
|
||
refers to field corn (grown for grain, seed, or silage),
|
||
popcorn, and sweet corn (processing varieties only, not
|
||
including sweet corn grown for seed or fresh market vari-
|
||
eties). Before applying Verdict Trio to seed corn,
|
||
processing sweet corn, or popcorn, verify the selectivity of
|
||
Verdict Trio on your inbred line or hybrid with your local
|
||
seed company (supplier) to help avoid potential injury to
|
||
sensitive inbreds or hybrids.
|
||
Application Rate
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio in corn at the residual rates provided in
|
||
Table 6, and in popcorn and processing sweet corn at
|
||
residual rates in Table 7.

Application Timing
|
||
Fall Application
|
||
For use only in Iowa, Minnesota,
|
||
North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin
|
||
Verdict® Trio herbicide may be broadcast surface
|
||
applied in the fall to control weeds in conventional, mini-
|
||
mum tillage, or no-till corn production systems planted the
|
||
following spring. Apply from 21 to 28 fluid ounces of
|
||
Verdict Trio per acre to medium-texture and fine-texture
|
||
soils with more than 2.5% organic matter. Fall applications
|
||
must be made after October 1.
|
||
Broadcast surface apply Verdict Trio in the fall after crop
|
||
harvest when soil temperatures at the 4-inch depth are
|
||
sustained at less than 55º F and before the ground freez-
|
||
es. Tillage operations may be conducted before or after
|
||
applying Verdict Trio. When following an application,
|
||
tillage must be no more than 2-inches to 3-inches deep to
|
||
uniformly incorporate the herbicide into the upper soil sur-
|
||
face. When a sequential application program (fall
|
||
application followed by spring application of Verdict Trio)
|
||
is used, the maximum combined rate of Verdict Trio that
|
||
may be applied is 28 fluid ounces per acre per year.
|
||
Early Preplant Surface Application
|
||
(within 15 to 30 days of planting)
|
||
Use application rates in Table 6 when making early pre-
|
||
plant surface applications, using the highest application
|
||
rate for a given soil texture. Early preplant surface applica-
|
||
tions are not advised on coarse soils, in areas where
|
||
average annual rainfall (or rainfall plus irrigation) typically
|
||
exceeds 40 inches, or for popcorn or processing sweet
|
||
corn.
|
||
Early preplant surface applications may be applied as part
|
||
of a split application program where applications are made
|
||
as part of the application timings described in this label.
|
||
However, the cumulative total of sequential application
|
||
rates must not exceed the maximum labeled rate for a
|
||
given soil texture.
|
||
Preplant Surface and
|
||
Preplant Incorporated Application
|
||
(within 14 days of planting)
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio at use rates specified in Table 6 and
|
||
Table 7 as a broadcast spray to the soil surface or incor-
|
||
porated before planting on all soil types.
|
||
Preemergence Surface Application
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio at use rates specified in Table 6 and
|
||
Table 7 as a broadcast spray to the soil surface after
|
||
planting and before crop emergence. Verdict Trio must
|
||
be applied before crop emergence or injury will occur.
|
||
Burndown plus Residual Weed Control
|
||
In addition to residual weed control at any of the applica-
|
||
tion timings previously described, Verdict Trio also
|
||
provides burndown of emerged broadleaf weeds listed in
|
||
Table 2. An adjuvant system (refer to Additives section
|
||
for details) is required for optimum burndown activity.
|
||
Burndown control of emerged grass weeds or additional
|
||
broadleaf weeds not listed on the label requires a tank mix
|
||
with another herbicide (like glyphosate).
|
||
Residual preemergence application rates of Verdict Trio
|
||
can follow a fall or early preplant burndown application of
|
||
Sharpen
|
||
® herbicide. However, DO NOT apply more than
|
||
the annual maximum cumulative amount per acre of
|
||
saflufenacil from all product sources. A minimum of
|
||
14 days is required between Verdict Trio and Sharpen
|
||
applications.
|
||
Burndown Weed Control Only
|
||
If limited or no residual broadleaf weed control is desired,
|
||
Verdict Trio can be applied at 5.5 fl ozs/A (all soil types)
|
||
with an adjuvant system any time before corn emergence
|
||
for burndown of broadleaf weeds listed in Table 2. A burn-
|
||
down application of Verdict Trio can be followed by
|
||
residual rates of Verdict Trio (Table 6) or Sharpen. Sep-
|
||
arate sequential applications by at least 14 days. However,
|
||
DO NOT apply more than the annual maximum cumulative
|
||
amount per acre of saflufenacil from all product sources.
|
||
Enhanced Burndown in Seed Corn. Apply Verdict Trio
|
||
preplant surface or preemergence at 5.5 to 11 fl ozs/A with
|
||
an adjuvant system for enhanced burndown broadleaf
|
||
weed control in seed corn before crop emergence.
|
||
DO NOT apply more than 5.5 fl ozs/A on coarse soils. A
|
||
sequential application of Verdict Trio may be made with a
|
||
minimum of 30 days between applications. DO NOT apply
|
||
more than a maximum cumulative amount of 21 fl ozs/A of
|
||
Verdict Trio per year in seed corn.
|
||
Crop-specific Restrictions
|
||
• DO NOT apply Verdict Trio after corn emergence or
|
||
severe crop injury will occur.
|
||
• DO NOT apply Verdict Trio where an at-planting appli-
|
||
cation of an organophosphate or carbamate
|
||
insecticide(s) is planned and/or has occurred because
|
||
severe injury may result. Verdict Trio may be applied
|
||
with all other classes of at-planting insecticides including
|
||
neonicotinoids and pyrethoids.
|
||
EXCEPTION: Verdict Trio may be applied when
|
||
Aztec
|
||
® 2.1% Granular Insecticide , AZTEC® 4.67 G
|
||
granular insecticide , or SmartChoiceTM 5G granular
|
||
insecticide is applied at planting as a band, T-band, or
|
||
infurrow.
|
||
• DO NOT apply more than a maximum cumulative
|
||
amount of 28 fl ozs/A of Verdict Trio per year.
|
||
• Maximum number of applications per year: 2
|
||
• Separate sequential applications by at least 14 days.
|
||
• If additional saflufenacil is applied from other product
|
||
sources, DO NOT apply more than the following maxi-
|
||
mum cumulative amount of saflufenacil per year in corn:
|
||
0.134 lb ai/A on all soils.
|
||
• If additional dimethenamid-P is applied from other prod-
|
||
uct sources, DO NOT apply more than the following
|
||
maximum cumulative amount of dimethenamid-P per
|
||
year in corn: 1.125 lbs ai/A on all soils.

|
||
• If additional pyroxasulfone is applied from other product
|
||
sources, DO NOT apply more than the following maxi-
|
||
mum cumulative amounts of pyroxasulfone per year in
|
||
corn: 0.146 lb ai/A on coarse soils, 0.159 lb ai/A on medi-
|
||
um soils, and 0.213 lb ai/A on fine soils.
|
||
• DO NOT harvest sweet corn ears for human consump-
|
||
tion less than 37 days after application of Verdict
|
||
® Trio
|
||
herbicide.
|
||
• Corn, popcorn, or sweet corn forage and silage must not
|
||
be harvested, fed, or grazed sooner than 80 days after
|
||
application.
|
||
• There is no required (preharvest) interval between a pre-
|
||
plant surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence
|
||
application of Verdict Trio and the harvest of field corn
|
||
grain, popcorn, and seed corn. Corn forage, stover, and
|
||
sweet corn cannery waste may be fed to livestock after
|
||
harvest.
|
||
Crop-specific Precautions
|
||
• Verdict Trio application may result in delayed corn
|
||
emergence and stunting under certain environmental
|
||
conditions including cool temperatures, excessive rain-
|
||
fall/irrigation, and/or persistent wet soil conditions
|
||
occurring after application.
|
||
• Ensure the corn seed row is closed. Soil conditions that
|
||
cause poor seed furrow closure and coverage may result
|
||
in delayed corn emergence or stunting.
|
||
• Verdict Trio applied to processing sweet corn planted
|
||
at a depth of 1/2 inch or less may result in crop injury.
|
||
Fallow
|
||
Verdict Trio may be used as a burndown treatment to
|
||
control broadleaf weeds at any time of the year during the
|
||
fallow period following crop harvest and before the follow-
|
||
ing crop is planted.
|
||
Application Rate and Timing
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio as a broadcast burndown spray at
|
||
5.5 to 11 fl ozs/A plus recommended adjuvants (refer to
|
||
Additives section for details). For best product perfor-
|
||
mance, apply Verdict Trio when broadleaf weeds are
|
||
small and actively growing (refer to Table 2 for list of
|
||
weeds controlled). Thorough coverage of existing weeds is
|
||
essential and higher spray volumes may be needed for
|
||
best performance.
|
||
Sequential applications may be made with a minimum of
|
||
14 days between applications; DO NOT apply more than a
|
||
maximum cumulative amount of 28 fl ozs/A of Verdict Trio
|
||
per year.
|
||
For residual weed control, Verdict Trio may be applied at
|
||
11 to 28 fl ozs/A.
|
||
Specific rotational crop intervals must be observed
|
||
between an application of Verdict Trio and planting of the
|
||
following crop (see Crop Rotation Intervals section for
|
||
crop rotation restrictions).
|
||
Soybean
|
||
Verdict Trio may be applied in the fall and/or in the spring
|
||
as a preplant or preemergence burndown application in
|
||
conventional and reduced-till or no-till soybean for broad-
|
||
leaf weed control. An adjuvant system (refer to Additives
|
||
section for details) is required for optimum burndown
|
||
activity.
|
||
Under high soil moisture and/or cool conditions,
|
||
Verdict Trio application may cause temporary stunting or
|
||
leaf chlorosis/necrosis of soybean. Soybean normally out-
|
||
grows these symptoms within 10 to 14 days.
|
||
Not for use in soybean in California.
|
||
Application Rate and Timing
|
||
Fall Application
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio at 5.5 to 11 fl ozs/A for burndown
|
||
broadleaf weed control after the prior crop is harvested.
|
||
For residual weed control, Verdict Trio may be applied up
|
||
to 17.0 fl ozs/A. Application must be made before first kill-
|
||
ing frost. Fall application can be made to all soil types.
|
||
Spring Application
|
||
For all spring applications of Verdict Trio, refer to
|
||
Soybean Planting Interval information for minimum
|
||
planting intervals.
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio early preplant through preemergence
|
||
at 5.5 fl ozs/A for burndown broadleaf weed control before
|
||
crop emergence.
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio early preplant at 8.5 to 11 fl ozs/A for
|
||
burndown plus residual weed control.
|
||
Sequential Application
|
||
Apply Verdict Trio following a fall or early preplant burn-
|
||
down application of Sharpen® herbicide OR
|
||
Verdict Trio (at 5.5 to 11 fl ozs/A). However, DO NOT
|
||
apply more than the annual maximum cumulative amount
|
||
per acre of saflufenacil from all product sources; see
|
||
Crop- specific Restrictions section. A minimum of
|
||
30 days and 60 days is required between product applica-
|
||
tions totaling 0.043 lb ai/A and 0.066 lb ai/A of saflufenacil,
|
||
respectively.
|
||
Soybean Planting Interval
|
||
Depending on Verdict Trio use rate, soil texture, and
|
||
organic matter, an interval between Verdict Trio applica-
|
||
tion and plant ing may be required (see Table 8 and
|
||
Table 9). This interval must be observed before planting
|
||
soybean or crop injury may occur.
