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).

Decision Number: 462915
|
||
|
||
Dear Mark White:
|
||
|
||
The application referred to above, submitted under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
|
||
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, is acceptable under FIFRA section 3(c)(5).
|
||
|
||
A stamped copy of your labeling is enclosed for your records. This labeling supersedes all
|
||
previously accepted labeling. You must submit one (1) copy of the final printed labeling before
|
||
you release the product for shipment with the new labeling. In accordance with 40 CFR
|
||
152.130(c), you may distribute or sell this product under the previously approved labeling for 18
|
||
months from the date of this letter. After 18 months, you may only distribute or sell this product
|
||
if it bears this new revised labeling or subsequently approved labeling. “To distribute or sell” is
|
||
defined under FIFRA section 2(gg) and its implementing regulation at 40 CFR 152.3.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then please be
|
||
aware that the website becomes labeling under FIFRA and is subject to review by the Agency. If
|
||
the website is false or misleading, the product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or
|
||
distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR 156.10(a)(5) lists examples of statements
|
||
EPA may consider false or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced
|
||
on your product’s label, claims made on the website may not substantially differ from those
|
||
claims approved through the registration process. Therefore, should the Agency find or if it is
|
||
brought to our attention that a website contains false or misleading statements or claims
|
||
substantially differing from the EPA approved registration, the website will be referred to the
|
||
EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance.
|
||
|
||
In its endangered species assessment as part of its review of this action, EPA made may affect
|
||
determinations for certain listed species and their designated critical habitats. EPA initiated
|
||
formal consultation with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), which will be

|
||
EPA Reg. No. 100-526
|
||
Decision No. 462915
|
||
|
||
ongoing during the renewed registration period. If, after formal consultation with FWS,
|
||
additional modifications are identified in the Service’s Biological Opinion, EPA will notify
|
||
Syngenta in writing within 45 calendar days of the issuance of the Biological Opinion of any
|
||
necessary required changes. Within 30 calendar days of receiving EPA’s notice, Syngenta must
|
||
submit an amendment application incorporating any required changes, including amended labels.
|
||
Alternatively, Syngenta may respond by submitting a request for voluntary cancellation of this
|
||
product. If Syngenta fails to comply with this term, Syngenta has agreed in prior written
|
||
acceptance of these terms that EPA may cancel the registration under an expedited process under
|
||
FIFRA 6(e).
|
||
|
||
Your release for shipment of the product constitutes acceptance of these conditions. If you fail to
|
||
satisfy these requirements, EPA will consider appropriate regulatory action including, among
|
||
other things, cancellation under FIFRA section 6(e).
|
||
|

|
||
Environmental Hazards
|
||
|
||
Simazine can travel (seep or leach) through soil and can enter ground water which may
|
||
be used as drinking water. Simazine has been found in ground water. Users are advised
|
||
not to apply simazine to sand and loamy sand soils where the water table (ground water)
|
||
is close to the surface and where these soils are very permeable; i.e., well-drained. Your
|
||
|
||
–4–
|
||
local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of soil in your area
|
||
and the location of ground water.
|
||
|
||
This pesticide is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, to areas
|
||
where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark.
|
||
Runoff and drift from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring
|
||
areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water.
|
||
|
||
Product must not be mixed or loaded within 50 feet of intermittent streams and rivers,
|
||
natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. Product must not be applied within 66 feet of
|
||
points where agricultural field (nurseries, Christmas tree plantings, and turf grasses for
|
||
sod farms) surface water runoff enters perennial or intermittent streams and rivers or
|
||
within 200 feet of natural or impounded lakes and reservoirs. If this product is applied to
|
||
highly erodible land, the 66 foot buffer or setback from runoff entry points must be planted
|
||
to crop, or seeded with grass or other suitable crop.
|
||
|
||
Product must not be mixed or loaded, or used within 50 feet of all wells, including
|
||
abandoned wells, drainage wells, and sink holes. Operations that involve mixing, loading,
|
||
rinsing, or washing of this product into or from pesticide handling or application equipment
|
||
or containers within 50 ft. of any well are prohibited, unless conducted on an impervious
|
||
pad constructed to withstand the weight of the heaviest load that may be positioned on
|
||
or moved across the pad. Such a pad shall be designed and maintained to contain any
|
||
product spills or equipment leaks, container or equipment rinse or wash water, and rain
|
||
water that may fall on the pad. Surface water shall not be allowed to either flow over or
|
||
from the pad which means the pad must be self -contained. The pad shall be sloped to
|
||
facilitate material removal. An unroofed pad shall be of sufficient capacity to contain at a
|
||
minimum 110% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment
|
||
on the pad. A pad that is covered by a roof of sufficient size to completely exclude
|
||
precipitation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum containment of 100% of the
|
||
capacity of the largest pesticide container or application equipment on the pad.
|
||
Containment capacities as described above shall be maintained at all times. The above-
|
||
specified minimum containment capacities do not apply to vehicles when delivering
|
||
pesticide to the mixing/loading sites.
|
||
|
||
Additional State imposed requirements regarding well -head setbacks and operational
|
||
area containment must be observed.
|
||
|
||
One of the following restrictions must be used in applying simazine to tile- outletted
|
||
terraced fields containing standpipes:
|
||
|
||
• Do not apply within 66 feet of standpipes in tile-outletted terraced fields.
|
||
• Apply this product to the entire tile- outletted terraced field and immediately
|
||
incorporate it to a depth of 2-3 inches in the entire field.
|
||
• Apply this product to the entire tile- outletted terraced field under a no- till practice
|
||
only when a high crop residue management practice is practiced. High crop
|
||
|
||
–5–
|
||
residue management is described as a crop management practice where little or
|
||
no crop residue is removed from the field during and after crop harvest.
|
||
|
||
NON-TARGET ORGANISM ADVISORY STATEMENT
|
||
|
||
This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of non-
|
||
target organisms, including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the
|
||
forage and habitat of non-target organisms by following label directions intended to
|
||
minimize spray drift.

total pounds of simazine applied must not exceed the specific maximum rate per calendar
|
||
year as noted in the use directions.
|
||
|
||
Apply Princep 4L herbicide before weeds em erge or after removal of weed growth.
|
||
Princep 4L controls a wide variety of annual broadleaf and grass weeds when used at
|
||
selective rates in agricultural crops.
|
||
|
||
Where a range of application rates is given, use the low rate on coarse-textured soil and
|
||
soil lower in organic matter; use the high rate on fine- textured soil and soil higher in
|
||
organic matter.
|
||
|
||
Since Princep 4L enters weeds mainly through their roots, moisture is needed to move it
|
||
into the root zone. Very dry soil conditions following application may necessitate shallow
|
||
cultivation or rotary hoeing.
|
||
|
||
Princep 4L is nonflammable.

WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
SIMAZINE GROUP 5 HERBICIDE
|
||
|
||
Simazine, the active ingredient in this product, is a Group 5 herbicide based on the
|
||
mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America. Any
|
||
weed population may contain plants naturally resistant to Group 5 herbicides. Such
|
||
resistant weed plants may not be effectively managed using Group 5 herbicides but
|
||
may be effectively managed utilizing another herbicide alone or in mixtures from a
|
||
different group and/or by using cultural or mechanical practices. However, an herbicide
|
||
mode of action classification by itself may not adequately address specific weeds that
|
||
are resistant to specific herbicides. Consult your local company representative, state
|
||
cooperative extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities to
|
||
determine appropriate actions for treating specific resistant weeds.
|
||
|
||
Scout and know your field
|
||
• Know weed species present in the field to be treated through scouting and field
|
||
history. An understanding of weed biology is useful in designing a resistance
|
||
management strategy. Ensure the weed management program will control all
|
||
weeds present.
|
||
• Fields should be scouted prior to application to determine species present and
|
||
growth stage. Always apply this herbicide at the full labeled rate and correct
|
||
timing for the weeds present in the field.
|
||
Utilize non-herbicidal practices to add diversity
|
||
• Use diversified management tactics such as cover crops, mechanical weed
|
||
control, harvest weed seed control, and crop rotation as appropriate.
|
||
Use good agronomic practices, start clean and stay clean
|
||
• Use good agronomic practices that enhance crop competitiveness.
|
||
• Plant into weed-free fields utilizing tillage or an effective burndown herbicide for
|
||
control of emerged weeds.
|
||
• Sanitize farm equipment to avoid spreading seed or vegetative propagules prior
|
||
to leaving fields.
|
||
Difficult to control weeds
|
||
• Fields with difficult to control weeds should be planted in rotation with crops that
|
||
allow the use of herbicides with an alternative mode of action or different
|
||
management practices.
|
||
• Difficult to control weeds may require sequential applications, such as a broad
|
||
spectrum preemergence herbicide followed by one or more postemergence
|
||
herbicide applications. Utilize herbicides containing different modes of action
|
||
effective on the target weeds in sequential applications.
|
||
|
||
–11–
|
||
Do not overuse the technology
|
||
• Do not use more than two applications of this or any other herbicide with the
|
||
same mode of action in a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide
|
||
with a different mode of action which provides overlapping spectrum for the
|
||
difficult to control weeds.
|
||
Scout and inspect fields following application
|
||
• Prevent an influx of weeds into the field by controlling weeds in field borders.
|
||
• Scout fields after application to verify that the treatment was effective.
|
||
|
||
• Suspected- herbicide resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators
|
||
• Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at
|
||
the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
• A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species;
|
||
and
|
||
• Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
• Report non-performance of this product to your Syngenta retailer, Syngenta
|
||
representative, or call 1-866-Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). If resistance is
|
||
suspected ensure weed escapes are controlled using an herbicide with an
|
||
effective mode of action and/or use non-chemical means to prevent further seed
|
||
production.
|
||
Prevent weed escapes before, during, and after harvest
|
||
• Do not allow weed escapes to produce seed or vegetative structures such as
|
||
tubers or stolons which contribute to spread and survival. Consider harvest
|
||
weed seed management and control weeds post-harvest to prevent seed
|
||
production.
|
||
Resistant Weeds
|
||
Contact your local Syngenta representative, retailer, crop advisor or extension agent to
|
||
determine if weeds resistant to this mode of action are present in your area. If resistant
|
||
biotypes have been reported, use the full labeled rate of this product, apply at the labeled
|
||
timing, and tank-mix with a different mode of action product so there are multiple effective
|
||
modes of application for each suspected resistant weed.
|
||
|
||

|
||
PERENNIAL CROP REPLANTING
|
||
|
||
If replanting perennial crops, do not apply Princep 4L in the year preceding planting these
|
||
crops, unless otherwise stated on this label, or crop injury may occur.
|
||
|
||
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
|
||
|
||
Ground boom applications: Use conventional ground sprayers equipped with nozzles
|
||
that provide accurate and uniform applicati on. Be certain that nozzles are uniformly
|
||
spaced and are the same size. Calibrate sprayer before use and recalibrate at the start
|
||
of each season and when changing carriers. Unless otherwise specified, use a minimum
|
||
of 20 gal of spray mixture per acre.
|
||
|
||
Use a pump with capacity to: (1) maintain 35- 40 psi at nozzles, (2) provide sufficient
|
||
agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension, and (3) to provide a minimum of 20%
|
||
bypass at all times. Use centrifugal pumps which prov ide propeller shear action for
|
||
dispersing and mixing this product. The pump should provide a minimum of 10
|
||
gal/minute/100 gal. tank size circulated through a correctly positioned sparger tube or
|
||
jets.
|
||
|
||
Use screens to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging. Screens placed
|
||
on the suction side of the pump should be 16-mesh or coarser. Do not place a screen in
|
||
the recirculation line. Use 50- mesh or coarser screens between the pump and boom,
|
||
and where required, at the nozzles. Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations.
|
||
|
||
For band applications, calculate amount to be applied per acre as follows:
|
||
|
||
band width in
|
||
inches X
|
||
broadcast rate
|
||
=
|
||
amount needed
|
||
row width in inches per acre per acre of field
|
||
|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||
• User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer,
|
||
but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
|
||
• Applicators are required to use a coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572)
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
• User must maintain a 15 foot (4.6 meter) in-field downwind buffer (in the direction
|
||
in which the wind is blowing) from the edge of streams and rivers, as well as high-
|
||
tide line for all estuarine/marine environments
|

|
||
SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
|
||
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE
|
||
AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
|
||
|
||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets
|
||
that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the
|
||
potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable
|
||
environmental conditions.
|
||
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||
• Volume – Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will
|
||
reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a
|
||
greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
|
||
• 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 design ed for the intended application.
|
||
Consider using nozzles designed to reduce spray drift.
|
||
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal
|
||
bounce.
|
||
|
||
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 INVERSIONS
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are
|
||
characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
|
||
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated
|
||
by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke
|
||
generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low
|
||
wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly
|
||
dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
|
||
|
||
WIND
|
||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING
|
||
GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need t o be familiar with local wind patterns
|
||
and terrain that could affect spray drift.
|
||
|
||

|
||
APPLICATION THROUGH MICRO-SPRINKLER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS (FOR
|
||
USE ON CITRUS ONLY IN CALIFORNIA)
|
||
|
||
|
||
Princep 4L may be applied only through micro-sprinkler irrigation systems. Do not
|
||
apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Crop injury, lack of
|
||
effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform
|
||
distribution of treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should
|
||
contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other
|
||
experts. Do not connect any 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. A person knowledgeable of the irrigation system and
|
||
responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall
|
||
shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
|
||
|
||
Irrigation System Operating Instructions
|
||
|
||
1. The system must contain a functional check-valve, vacuum relief valve, and
|
||
low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent
|
||
water- source contamination from backflow.
|
||
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-
|
||
closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection
|
||
pump.
|
||
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, 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.
|
||
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut
|
||
off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
|
||
5. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch
|
||
which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to
|
||
the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
6. Systems must use a metering device, such as a positive displacement
|
||
injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed
|
||
of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted
|
||
with a system interlock.
|
||
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended.
|
||
|
||
Micro-Sprinkler Application Instructions
|
||
|
||
Princep 4L must be applied on the schedule specified in the specific crop use
|
||
recommendations on the product label and not according to the irrigation schedule.
|
||
|
||
–15–
|
||
Princep 4L has not been sufficiently tested when applied through micro-sprinkler
|
||
irrigation systems to assure consistent product performance for all labeled uses. The
|
||
following calibration and application techniques are provided for user reference, but do
|
||
not constitute a warranty of fitness for application through sprinkler or drip irrigation
|
||
equipment. Users must check with state and local regulatory agencies for potential
|
||
use restrictions before applying any agricultural chemical through micro-sprinkler
|
||
irrigation equipment.
|
||
|
||
General Instructions
|
||
|
||
1. Each run of the irrigation system must be calibrated separately to determine
|
||
the time it takes water to move through the system and to make sure all
|
||
emitters in the system are putting out the same amount of water.
|
||
2. Only pressure injection or venturi equipment is recommended.
|
||
3. Determine the area to be treated in each irrigation run.
|
||
4. Measure the output of each of the emitters closest to and farthest from
|
||
the injector site.
|
||
5. For calibration, substitute a concentrated detergent (such as Wisk) or a
|
||
soluble fertilizer for the Princep 4L in the injector tank. The detergent will
|
||
bubble as it leaves the emitters. The time period over which bubbles occur
|
||
should be checked for both the closest and farthest emitters. If these times
|
||
are not within 2 minutes of each other, adjust the dilution ratio and/or the
|
||
injection rate.
|
||
6. If a soluble fertilizer is used, measure the time intervals with a salt bridge.
|
||
|
||
Step-by-Step Instructions
|
||
|
||
1. Before starting to calibrate, operate the system until all the emitters are
|
||
putting out at equal flow rates or until the system is operating at full
|
||
pressure.
|
||
2. Make up an indicator solution of detergent or fertilizer, using the same ratio to
|
||
be used when mixing Princep 4L.
|
||
3. Set the injector to apply the indicator solution at the injection rate to be used
|
||
in the actual Princep 4L application.
|
||
4. Attach a 5-inch length of flexible tubing over the emitter closest to the
|
||
injection point, another length over the emitter farthest away. Both emitters
|
||
should be monitored to determine the time intervals that the indicator
|
||
solutions are observed.
|
||
5. Begin injecting the indicator solution. Direct the flow from the tubes at the
|
||
emitters into a small container. Begin timing when the indicator solution is
|
||
first detected, stop timing when the indicator solutions are no longer
|
||
detected.
|
||
6. If the period of detection of the indicator solution between the 2 emitters are
|
||
within 2 minutes of each other, comparable coverage will be obtained. If they
|
||
are not, make adjustments by increasing the dilution ratio, using more water
|
||
per part of Princep 4L, or adjust the injector to a slower flow rate.
|
||
|
||
–16–
|
||
7. Once the system is calibrated, dilute the needed amount of Princep 4L with
|
||
water in the mix tank using a minimum of 15 parts water to 1 part Princep 4L
|
||
in the solution tank.
|
||
8. Do not begin to inject Princep 4L into the system until all emitters are
|
||
producing equal flow rates, or until the system is at full pressure.
|
||
9. Inject the Princep 4L into the system at the beginning of the irrigation set in
|
||
½-1 inch of irrigation water. Do not apply in excess of 1 inch of water.
|
||
|
||
|
||
MIXING PROCEDURES
|
||
|
||
All Uses: (1) Be sure sprayer is clean and not contaminated with any other materials, or
|
||
crop injury or sprayer clogging may result. (2) Fill tank ¼ full with clean water, nitrogen
|
||
solution, or complete fluid fertilizer. (3) Start agitation. (4) Be certain that the agitation
|
||
system is working properly and creates a rippling or rolling action on the liquid surface.
|
||
(5) If any dry herbicides are being tank mixed, add them to the tank and allow them to
|
||
become thoroughly suspended. (6) Then pour Princep 4L directly from jug into tank. (7)
|
||
Continue filling tank until 90% full. Increase agitation if necessary to maintain surface
|
||
action. (8) Add other liquid tank mix herbicide(s) after this product is thoroughly
|
||
suspended. (9) Finish filling tank. Maintain agitation to avoid separation of materials. (10)
|
||
Empty tank as completely as possible before refilling to prevent buildup of emulsifiable
|
||
concentrate residue from possible tank mix herbicides. (11) If an emulsifiable concentrate
|
||
film starts to build up in tank, drain it and clean with strong detergent solution or solvent.
|
||
(12) Clean sprayer thoroughly immediately after use by flushing system with water
|
||
containing a detergent.
|
||
|
||
Compatibility test: To determine the tank mix compatibility of Princep 4L with l iquid
|
||
fertilizer, crop oil, spreaders, or other recommended pesticides, use this test method.
|
||
Nitrogen solutions or complete fluid fertilizers may replace all or part of the water in the
|
||
spray in corn. Since liquid fertilizers can vary, even within the s ame analysis, check
|
||
compatibility each time before use. Be especially careful when using complete
|
||
suspension or fluid fertilizers, as serious compatibility problems are more apt to occur.
|
||
Commercial application equipment may improve compatibility in some instances. Check
|
||
compatibility using this procedure:
|
||
|
||
1. Add 1 pt of fertilizer to each of 2 one-qt glass jars with tight lids.
|
||
|
||
2. To one of the jars, add ¼ tsp. of a compatibility agent approved for this use (¼ tsp.
|
||
is equivalent to 2 pt/100 gal spray). Cap and shake until mixed. Examples of
|
||
compatibility agents include Compex® and Unite®.
|
||
|
||
3. To both jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s). If more than one
|
||
herbicide is used, add them separately with dry herbicides first, flowables next, and
|
||
emulsifiable concentrates last. After each addition, cap and shake until thoroughly
|
||
mixed. The appropriate amount of herbicides for this test follows (assuming a
|
||
spray volume of 25 gal/A):
|
||
|
||
–17–
|
||
|
||
Dry herbicides: For each pound per acre, add 1.5 teaspoons to each
|
||
jar. Fluff up wettable powder products before
|
||
measuring.
|
||
|
||
Liquid herbicides: For each pint per acre, add 0.5 teaspoon to each jar.
|
||
|
||
For a spray volume other than 25 gal /A, change the teaspoons added to each jar
|
||
as follows:
|
||
|
||
25 gal X no. teaspoons given above = teaspoons to add
|
||
desired gal spray volume per acre to each jar
|
||
|
||
4. After adding all ingredients, put lids on and tighten. Shake jars vigorously one
|
||
minute. Let the mixtures stand 15 minutes and then look for separation, large
|
||
flakes, precipitates, grease, gels, medium to heavy oily film on the jar, or other
|
||
signs of incompatibility. Determine if the compatibility agent is needed in the spray
|
||
mixture by comparing the 2 jars. If either mixture separates, but can be remixed
|
||
readily, the mixture can probably be sprayed as long as good agitation is used. If
|
||
the mixtures ar e incompatible, test the following methods of improving
|
||
compatibility: (A) slurry the dry herbicide(s) in water before addition, or (B) add ½
|
||
of the compatibility agent to the fertilizer and the other ½ to the emulsifiable
|
||
concentrate or flowable herbicid e before addition to the mixture. If still
|
||
incompatible, do not use the materials mixed in the same spray tank.
|
||
|
||
WEEDS CONTROLLED
|
||
|
||
|
||
Princep 4L applied as directed in this label will control or partially control the weeds
|
||
listed in Table 1. Optimal weed control can be obtained if Princep 4L is applied
|
||
according to all label use directions.
|
||
|
||
Princep 4L will not control emerged weeds so applications must be made to a weed-
|
||
free soil surface or in tank mixture with products that provide postemergence control
|
||
of weeds present at the time of application.
|
||
|
||
Dry weather following application of Princep 4L may reduce residual weed control
|
||
effectiveness.

Precautions to reduce citrus crop injury risk in all states:
|
||
1. Dark-red grapefruit hybrids, e.g. “Star Ruby”, have a higher risk of crop injury
|
||
than non-dark red types.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions to reduce citrus crop injury risk in all states:
|
||
1. Do not exceed 4 qt/A/year of Princep 4L (4 lb ai/A) on grove planted trees 1 year
|
||
old or less or crop injury may occur.
|
||
2. Do not apply to bedded citrus (except for FL grapefruit and oranges).
|
||
3. Do not apply to trees under stress from freeze damage for one year after the
|
||
freeze.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Difficult to Control Weeds
|
||
For control of difficult species, such as balsamapple vine and spanishneedles, and
|
||
partial control of honeyvine milkweed, apply no more than 8.0 qt/A of Princep 4L
|
||
(8.0 lb ai/A) per treated acre as a single application in the spring using a 50%
|
||
band application. The amount of Princep 4L applied per acre of field must not exceed
|
||
4 quarts (4 lb ai/A). Apply in the spring growing season between January and April. Do
|
||
not make a fall application if this treatment was used in the spring.

FIELD CROPS
|
||
|
||
CORN (FIELD, POP AND SWEET)
|
||
[Not for use on popcorn in CA.]
|
||
|
||
Apply a maximum of 2 qt Princep 4L per acre (2.0 lb ai/A) as a single preemergence
|
||
application on soils that are not highly erodible or on highly erodible soils, as defined by
|
||
the Natural Resources Conservation Service, if at least 30% of the soil is covered with
|
||
plant residues. If a second treatment is required following an earlier herbicide application,
|
||
the total simazine applied may not exceed 2.5 lb ai/A per calendar year.
|
||
|
||
If the soil is highly erodible and covered with <30% plant residues, apply a maximum of
|
||
1.6 lb ai/acre as a single preemergence applicat ion. For highly erodible soils and is
|
||
covered with <30% plant residue, do not apply more than one application of Princep 4L
|
||
and not more than 1.6 lb ai/A (1.6 qt/A).
|
||
|
||
Pre-grazing/pre-harvest interval for field corn: 60 days
|
||
Pre-grazing/pre-harvest interval for popcorn: 60 days
|
||
Pre-grazing/pre-harvest interval for sweet corn: 45 days
|
||
|
||
Nitrogen solution or complete liquid fertilizer may replace all or part of the water in the
|
||
spray. Determine the physical compatibility of Princep 4L with fertilizer before use. Refer
|
||
to the Product Information section of this label for a compatibility test procedure. Do
|
||
not apply after corn has emerged, as there is danger of liquid fertilizer causing crop injury.
|
||
Use a minimum of 10 gal of spray mixture per acre.
|
||
|
||
–30–
|
||
Preemergence: Apply before weeds and corn emerge. Use the specified rate as stated
|
||
above.
|
||
|
||
Preplant: Broadcast in the spring at the specified rate as stated above. If soil is tilled
|
||
or worked after application, avoid deep incorporation of Princep 4L. Best results will be
|
||
obtained when Princep 4L is applied within 2 weeks before planting. Under dry weather
|
||
conditions, preplant applications may give better weed control than preemergence. If
|
||
weeds develop, particularly under relatively dry conditions, a shallow cultivation will
|
||
generally result in better weed control.
|
||
|
||
Winter Annual Broadleaf Control – Preemergence Fall Application
|
||
|
||
For preemergence control of winter annual weeds, such as common chickweed, henbit,
|
||
shepherdspurse, tansymustard, wild mustard, annual bluegrass, downy brome, and
|
||
others, broadcast 1 qt/A of Princep 4L after harvest of the preceding crop and prior to
|
||
weed emergence on land to be planted to corn the following year. A tillage operation may
|
||
precede the application. Do not apply to frozen ground. If Princep 4L is used in the fall
|
||
corn weed control program, do not exceed 1.5 qt of Princep 4L preemergence in the
|
||
spring.
|
||
|
||
Restrictions:
|
||
1. Do not apply more than 2.5 qt of Princep 4L per acre of corn per calendar year.
|
||
2. Do not plant any crop except corn until the following year.
|
||
3. Do not graze or harvest field corn or popcorn for 60 days following application.
|
||
4. Do not graze or harvest sweet corn for 45 days following application.
|
||
5. Do not apply Princep 4L preplant incorporated for weed control in corn in the High
|
||
Plains and Intermountain areas of the West (including central and western KS,
|
||
western NE, western OK, and the Panhandle of TX) where rainfall is sparse and
|
||
erratic or where irrigation is required.
|
||
6. Do not plant sugar beets, tobacco, vegetables (including dry beans), spring-
|
||
seeded small grains, or small -seeded legumes and grasses the year following
|
||
Princep 4L application.
|
||
7. Applications made to sweet corn by mechanically pressurized handguns are
|
||
restricted to spot treatment only.
|
||
|
||
Precautions:
|
||
1. Following harvest, plow and thoroughly till the soil in fall or spring to minimize
|
||
possible injury to spring-seeded rotational crops, regardless of the rate used.
|
||
2. In the High Plains and Intermountain areas of the West where rainfall is sparse
|
||
and erratic or where irrigation is required, use Princep 4L only when corn is to
|
||
follow corn or when a crop of untreated corn is to precede other rotational crops.
|
||
3. Injury may occur to soybeans planted in north- central and northwest IA, south -
|
||
central and southwest MN, northeast NE, southeast SD, and other areas the year
|
