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.

Environmental Hazards
|
||
|
||
Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal
|
||
areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of
|
||
equipment wash water or rinsate.
|
||
|
||
Ground Water Advisory
|
||
|
||
S-metolachlor is known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions
|
||
as a result of label use. This chemical may leach into groundwater in areas where soils
|
||
are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
Page 4
|
||
|
||
Surface Water Advisory
|
||
|
||
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water or through
|
||
ground application drift. 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 weeks or months after application.
|
||
A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is
|
||
applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the
|
||
potential loading of S-metolachlor from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this
|
||
product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to
|
||
occur within 48 hours.
|
||
|
||
NON-TARGET ORGANISM ADVISORY
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
Reporting Ecological Incidents
|
||
|
||
To report ecological incidents, including mortality, injury, or harm to plants and animals,
|
||

||
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
|
||

|
||
|
||
exclude precipitation from contact with the pad shall have a minimum containment
|
||
capacity of 100% of the capacity of the largest pesticide container or application
|
||

|
||
GENERAL INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI is a liquid herbicide formulation designed for impregnation on dry
|
||
bulk fertilizer and recommended as a preplant surface-applied, preplant incorporated, or
|
||
preemergence treatment when impregnated on fertilizer for control of most annual
|
||
grasses and certain broadleaf weeds in corn (all types), and soybeans. Dual II Magnum
|
||
SI can be used in bulk fertilizer blenders and on-board fertilizer impregnation systems.
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI contains a red dye to aid operators to determine when a uniform
|
||
blend is achieved. This low viscosity (free-flowing) formulation adsorbs quickly and
|
||
thoroughly to dry fertilizer, improving the flowability of the fertilizer/herbicide mixture
|
||
over varying temperature and moisture conditions.
|
||
|
||
Note: Dual II Magnum SI will not mix with water or liquid fertilizers.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply under conditions which favor runoff or wind erosion of soil containing this
|
||
product to non-target areas.
|
||
|
||
To prevent off-site movement due to runoff or wind erosion,
|
||
|
||
1. Avoid treating powdery dry or light sa nd soils when conditions are favorable for
|
||
wind erosion. Under these conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by
|
||
rainfall or irrigation.
|
||
|
||
2. Do not apply to impervious substrates, such as paved or highly compacted
|
||
surfaces.
|
||
|
||
3. Do not use tailwater from the first flood or furrow irrigation of treated fields to treat
|
||
nontarget crops, unless at least 1/2 inch of rainfall has occurred between
|
||
application and the first irrigation.
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
Page 9
|
||
|
||
If Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer is incorporated, any supplemental tillage before
|
||
planting must not exceed the depth of incorporation.
|
||
|
||
Dry weather following an application of Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer may reduce
|
||
effectiveness. Cultivate if weeds develop.
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer will not control emerged weeds.
|
||
|
||
Where reference is made to weeds partially controlled, partial control can either mean
|
||
erratic control from good to poor, or consistent control at a level below that generally
|
||
considered acceptable for commercial weed control.
|
||
|
||
Precaution: Injury may occur to crops other than corn following the use of Dual II
|
||
Magnum SI under abnormally high soil moisture conditions during early development of
|
||
the crop.
|
||
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI herbicide contains the active ingredient S-metolachlor which inhibits
|
||
the formation of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA, Site of Action Group 15). Some
|
||
naturally occurring weed populations have been identified as resistant to Group 15
|
||
herbicides. Selection of resistant biotypes, through repeated use of these herbicides or
|
||
lower than recommended use rates in the same field, may result in weed control
|
||
failures. A resistant biotype may be present where poor performance cannot be
|
||
attributed to adverse environmental conditions or improper application methods. If
|
||
resistance is suspected, contact your local Syngenta representative and/or agricultural
|
||
advisor for assistance.
|
||
|
||
Principles of Herbicide Resistant Weed Management
|
||
Scout and know your field
|
||
• Know weed species present in the field to be treated through scouting and field
|
||
history. An understanding of weed biology is useful in designing a resistance
|
||
management strategy. Ensure the weed management program will control all
|
||
weeds present.
|
||
• Fields should be scouted prior to application to determine species present and
|
||
growth stage. Always apply this herbicide at the full labeled rate and correct
|
||
timing for the weeds present in the field.
|
||
Utilize non-herbicidal practices to add diversity
|
||
• Use diversified management tactics su ch 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.
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
Page 10
|
||
|
||
• Plant into weed-free fields utilizing til lage 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.
|
||
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 difficult
|
||
to control weeds.
|
||
Scout and inspect fields following application
|
||
• Prevent an influx of weeds into the fi eld by controlling weeds in field borders.
|
||
• Scout fields after application to veri fy 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 controll ed 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 postharvest to prevent seed
|
||
production.

APPLICATION PROCEDURES
|
||
|
||
Application Timing
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer may be applied for weed control in certain crops at
|
||
various times. Refer to the given crop section of the label to determine if application
|
||
timings listed below are recommended.
|
||
|
||
Preplant Surface-Applied: For minimum-tillage or no-tillage systems only, Dual II
|
||
Magnum SI on dry fertilizer may be applied up to 45 days before planting certain crops.
|
||
Use only split applications for treatments made 30-45 days before planting, with 2/3 the
|
||
recommended broadcast rate for the crop and soil texture applied initially and the
|
||
remaining 1/3 at planting. Treatments less than 30 days before planting may be made
|
||
either as a split or a single application. Refer to individual crop to determine if early
|
||
preplant surface application is recommended. To the extent possible, do not move
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
Page 12
|
||
|
||
treated soil out of the row or move untreated soil to the surface during planting, or weed
|
||
control will be diminished.
|
||
|
||
Preplant Incorporated: Apply Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer to the soil and
|
||
incorporate into the top 2 inches of soil within 14 days before planting, using a finishing
|
||
disk, harrow, rolling cultivator, or similar implement capable of providing uniform 2-inch
|
||
incorporation. Use a preplant incorporated application if furrow irrigation is used or
|
||
when a period of dry weather after application is expected. If crop will be planted on
|
||
beds, apply and incorporate Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer after bed formation,
|
||
unless specified otherwise.
|
||
|
||
Preemergence: Apply Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer before planting and before
|
||
weeds emerge.
|
||
|
||
Special Application Procedures
|
||
|
||
Fall Application (Only in IA, MN, ND, SD, WI, and portions of NE and IL – See
|
||
specific instructions in the Corn and Soybeans sections of this label for timing of
|
||
application and other information): Do not apply to frozen ground. Use on medium
|
||
and fine soils with greater than 2.5% organic matter that will be planted to corn or
|
||
soybeans the next spring. Ground may be tilled before or after application. Do not
|
||
exceed a 2 to 3-inch incorporation depth if tilled after treatment. Note: If a spring
|
||
application is made, the total rate of the fall plus spring applications must not exceed the
|
||
maximum total rate for the specific crop, or illegal residues may result.
|
||
|
||
Ground Application: Apply Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer by ground equipment in
|
||
200 lbs. or more of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture per acre, unless otherwise specified.

|
||
|
||
*See General Information section. Control of these weeds can be erratic, due
|
||
partially to variable weather conditions. Control may be improved by following these
|
||
suggested procedures:
|
||
|
||
1. In Corn, use 2.4-3.0 pts./A or the preplant surface-applied rates for Dual II
|
||
Magnum SI alone on dry fertilizer when making preplant incorporated or
|
||
preemergence applications.
|
||
|
||
2. Thoroughly till moist soil to destroy germinating and emerged weeds. If Dual II
|
||
Magnum SI on dry fertilizer is to be applied preplant incorporated, this tillage may
|
||
be used to incorporate Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer if uniform 2-inch
|
||
incorporation is achieved as recommended under Application Procedures.
|
||
|
||
3. Plant crop into moist soil immediately after tillage. If Dual II Magnum SI on dry
|
||
fertilizer is to be used broadcast preemergence, apply before planting.
|
||
|
||
4. If available, sprinkler irrigate within 2 days after application. Apply 1/2-1 inch of
|
||
water. Use lower water volume (1/2 inch) on coarse-textured soils and higher
|
||
volume (1 inch) on fine-textured soils.
|
||
|
||
5. If irrigation is not possible and rain does not occur within 2 days after planting
|
||
and application, weed control may be decreased. Under these conditions, a
|
||
uniform, shallow cultivation is recommended as soon as weeds emerge.
|
||
|
||
**For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 1.6 pts./A of Dual II Magnum SI on
|
||
dry fertilizer and apply preemergence just before planting.
|
||
|
||
***For partial control of this weed, use a minimum of 1.6 pts./A of Dual II Magnum SI on
|
||
dry fertilizer and irrigate after application.

|
||
|
||
On medium- and fine-textured soils with minimum- or no-tillage systems in CT, DE, MA,
|
||
MD, ME, MI, NH, NY, OH, PA, RI, VA, VT, and WV, preplant surface applications may
|
||
be applied following the directions for use above. If the amount of rainfall results in
|
||
unsatisfactory length of weed control following the earlier treatment, a postemergence
|
||
application of an appropriately labeled broadleaf and/or grass weed herbicide may be
|
||
used, i.e., AAtrex®, Beacon®, Bicep Magnum®, Bicep II Magnum®, Exceed®,
|
||
Accent®, Banvel®, Basagran®, bromoxynil (Brominal or Buctril®), or 2,4-D. If the
|
||
postemergence treatment includes the herbicide used preplant surface-applied, do not
|
||
exceed the total labeled rate for corn on a given soil texture. Observe all directions for
|
||
use, precautions, and limitations on the label of the postemergent herbicide.
|
||
|
||
PREPLANT INCORPORATED OR PREEMERGENCE ON DRY FERTILIZER

|
||
harvest sweet corn ears from treated areas for 30 days following application.
|
||
|
||
Shattercane, Wild Proso Millet, Woolly Cupgrass, and Eclipta – Partial Control:
|
||
For more consistent partial control of shattercane, wild proso millet, woolly cupgrass, or
|
||
eclipta, apply 2.4-3.0 pts./A on dry fertilizer as a single application; or apply 1.2-
|
||
1.6 pts./A of Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer preplant incorporated followed by 1.0-
|
||
1.33 pts./A of Dual II Magnum preemergence; however, do not apply more than a total
|
||
of 3.0 pts./A. Make the preemergence application before planting, and before weeds
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
Page 16
|
||
|
||
emerge. Apply the 1.6 pts./A rate of Dual II Magnum SI when a heavy infestation of
|
||
shattercane, wild proso millet, woolly cupgrass, or eclipta is expected. A shallow
|
||
cultivation may be needed to control any late emerging weeds.
|
||
|
||
Woolly Cupgrass and Wild Proso Millet Control Program: For control of these
|
||
species, use the following 3-step program: (1) Apply Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer
|
||
early preplant, preplant incorporated, or preemergence before planting at 2.0 pts./A on
|
||
medium soils and 2.4 pts./A on fine-textured soils, up to the maximum label rate. Lightly
|
||
incorporate with a rotary hoe if rainfall does not occur within 5-7 days; (2) Apply a
|
||
postemergence tank mix of Beacon at 0.38 oz./A or Exceed at 1 packet per 4 acres plus
|
||
Accent SP at 0.33 oz./A plus 1.0 qt. of crop oil concentrate plus 1.0 gal./A of 28%
|
||
nitrogen, or the equivalent amount of ammonium sulfate, when grasses are 2-3 inches
|
||
tall and the corn is at least 4 inches tall; and (3) Cultivate 14-21 days after the
|
||
postemergence application.
|
||
|
||
Notes: (1) Do not apply more than the labeled application rate for a given soil texture
|
||
per year, either as a single or split treatment, or illegal residues may result. (2) In corn,
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer may be used up to 3.0 pts./A as either a preplant
|
||
surface, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment before planting on soils
|
||
having an organic matter content between 6% and 20% or up to 2.4 pts./A on any soil
|
||
for extended residual control and where severe stands of problem weeds are expected.
|
||
(3) In the event of escape of annual weeds following a preplant surface, preplant
|
||
incorporated, or preemergence treatment of Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer, follow
|
||
with a postemergence application of an appropriately labeled broadleaf and/or grass
|
||
weed herbicide, i.e., AAtrex, Beacon, Exceed, Accent, Banvel, Basagran, Brominal,
|
||
Buctril, or 2,4-D. If the postemergence treatment includes the herbicide used in the
|
||
earlier treatment, i.e., AAtrex, do not exceed the total labeled rate for corn on a given
|
||
soil texture. (4) Brominal or Buctril may be applied postemergence alone or in tank mix
|
||
combination with AAtrex. Do not exceed 1.2 lbs. a.i./A of AAtrex in tank mix
|
||
combination with Brominal or Buctril, postemergence. Refer to the AAtrex, Brominal,
|
||
and Buctril labels for specific rates and precautions. (5) Do not use Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
on fertilizer on peat or muck soils.

Shattercane, Wild Proso Millet, Woolly Cupgrass, and Eclipta – Partial Control
|
||
|
||
For more consistent partial control of shattercane, wild proso millet, woolly cupgrass, or
|
||
eclipta, where Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer is applied sequentially with other
|
||
registered corn herbicides, apply 2.4-2.8 pts. as a single application, or the following
|
||
applications may be made:
|
||
|
||
1. Apply 1.2-1.6 pts./A of Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer with 2.0 lbs. a.i./A of
|
||
AAtrex or Princep® preplant incorporated followed by 1.0-1.33 pts. of Dual II
|
||
Magnum preemergence. Make the preemergence application during or after
|
||
planting, but before weeds and corn emerge.
|
||
|
||
2. Apply Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer at 1.6 pts./A alone or with up to 2.0 lbs.
|
||
a.i./A of AAtrex or Princep, preplant incorporated. Do not exceed the total rate of
|
||
triazine herbicide recommended for corn grown on a given soil texture. Follow
|
||
with a post-directed application of Evik® 80W at 2.5 lbs./A. Refer to the Evik 80W
|
||
label for specific directions for the post-directed application.
|
||
|
||
3. Apply Eradicane® or Sutan® (or equivalent EPTC or butylate formulations) at
|
||
labeled rates preplant incorporated, followed by a preemergence application
|
||
before planting of Dual II Magnum SI on dry fertilizer at 1.2-1.6 pts./A. Do not
|
||
use Eradicane or Sutan on soils where rapid degradation has been shown to
|
||
occur. Make the preemergence application before planting, and before weeds
|
||
emerge.
|
||
|
||
Precaution: When following the application regimes in numbers 1-3 above, a shallow
|
||
cultivation may be needed after the preemergence or postemergence application to help
|
||
control any late emerging shattercane or wild proso millet plants.

before planting may be as either a split or single treatment. Apply 1.6 pts./A on coarse
|
||
soils not more than 2 weeks before planting.
|
||
|
||
Preplant Incorporated or Preemergence on Dry Fertilizer: On coarse soils, apply
|
||
1.2-1.6 pts./A of Dual II Magnum SI if organic matter content is less than 3%, or
|
||
1.6 pts./A if organic matter content is 3% or greater. On medium soils, apply 1.6-
|
||
2.0 pts./A of Dual II Magnum SI. On fine soils, apply 1.6-2.0 pts./A of Dual II Magnum
|
||
SI if organic matter content is less than 3%, or 2.0-2.4 pts./A if organic matter content is
|
||
3% or greater.
|
||
|
||
Note: On soybeans, Dual II Magnum SI may be used up to 3.0 pts./A on dry fertilizer
|
||
as a preplant surface-applied, preplant incorporated, or preemergence treatment before
|
||
planting on soils having an organic matter content between 6% and 20%. The total
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI rate applied to soybeans during any one crop should not exceed
|
||
3.0 pts./A.
|
||
|
||
DRY BULK GRANULAR FERTILIZERS
|
||
|
||
Many dry bulk granular fertilizers may be impregnated or coated with Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
alone. Dual II Magnum SI may be sequentially applied to dry bulk fertilizer in separate
|
||
operations with other products which are registered for preplant incorporated or preplant
|
||
surface application which are used to control weeds in crops on the Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
label and are not prohibited from use on dry bulk granular fertilizer.

|
||
|
||
When applying Dual II Magnum SI or Dual II Magnum SI with sequentially impregnated
|
||
products on dry bulk granular fertilizers, follow all directions for use and precautions on
|
||
the respective product labels regarding target crops, rates per acre, soil texture,
|
||
application methods (including timing of application), and rotational crops.
|
||
|
||
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk granular fertilizer blending,
|
||
registration, labeling, and application are the responsibility of the individual and/or
|
||
company selling the herbicide/fertilizer mixture.
|
||
|
||
Prepare the herbicide/fertilizer mixtures by using any closed drum, belt, ribbon, or other
|
||
commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender. Nozzles used to spray Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
onto the fertilizer must be placed to provide uniform spray coverage. Care should be
|
||
taken to aim the spray directly onto the moving fertilizer and to avoid spraying the walls
|
||
of the blender.
|
||
|
||
Blender Mixing Instructions
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI Alone: Fill the blender with at least 2/3 of the required amount of
|
||
dry bulk granular fertilizer to be used. Spray the Dual II Magnum SI directly onto the
|
||
moving dry fertilizer. Allow the fertilizer to blend for 5 minutes or until the mixture is
|
||
uniform. Add the remainder of the fertilizer. Blend for 5 minutes or until the mixture is
|
||
uniform. Spread the herbicide/fertilizer mixture as soon as possible.
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI Combinations: Do not mix Dual II Magnum SI directly with other
|
||
materials. Dual II Magnum SI may be applied sequentially onto dry fertilizer with other
|
||
herbicides labeled for applications on dry fertilizer when the following procedure is
|
||
followed:
|
||
|
||
Fill the blender with at least 2/3 of the required amount of dry bulk granular fertilizer to
|
||
be used. Spray the Dual II Magnum SI alone, directly onto the moving dry fertilizer.
|
||
Allow the fertilizer to blend for 5 minutes or until the mixture is uniform. Then spray the
|
||
combination partner onto the moving fertilizer. Blend the herbicide/fertilizer mixture for
|
||
5 minutes or until uniform. Add the remainder of the fertilizer. Blend for 5 minutes or
|
||
until the mixture is uniform. Spread the herbicide/fertilizer mixture as soon as possible.
|
||
Follow the blender mixing instructions on the label of the companion product.
|
||
|
||
Calculate amounts of Dual II Magnum SI by the following formula:
|
||
|
||
2,000 X pts./A of liquid = pts. of liquid product per
|
||
lbs. of fertilizers per acre product ton of fertilizer
|
||
|
||
Pneumatic (Compressed Air) Application: Dual II Magnum SI may be applied
|
||
through pneumatic applicators, whether the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is blender-mixed,
|
||
or on-board fertilizer impregnation systems are used.
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
Page 20
|
||
|
||
Dual II Magnum SI must not be mixed with any other liquid or dry material in on-board
|
||
fertilizer impregnation system tanks. Use high quality fertilizer with a minimum of fines
|
||
when applying Dual II Magnum SI with on-board impregnation equipment.
|
||
|
||
Notes: (1) Dual II Magnum SI is designed and labeled to be applied to dry fertilizer
|
||
only. Do not mix with water, other liquid additives, or liquid fertilizers for application by
|
||
sprayers. Lack of mixing, poor results, and crop injury may result. (2) Drying agents
|
||
are not recommended for use in on-board fertilizer impregnation systems. (3) When
|
||
urea is to be used as one component in the dry bulk granular fertilizer mixture, it should
|
||
be added to the blender last.
|
||
|
||
Precautions: To avoid potential for explosion, (1) Do not impregnate Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
or Dual II Magnum SI sequentials on ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, or sodium
|
||
nitrate, either alone or in blends with other fertilizers. (2) Do not use Dual II Magnum SI
|
||
or Dual II Magnum SI sequentials on straight unadulterated agricultural limestone, since
|
||
absorption will not be achieved. Limestone prills which contain a binding agent and
|
||
fertilizer blends containing limestone can be impregnated. (3) Do not mix Dual II
|
||
Magnum SI with any water, liquid, or dry product. (4) Dual II Magnum SI may be
|
||
applied only to dry bulk granular fertilizer.
|
||
|
||
Application
|
||
|
||
Apply 200 lbs. or more of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture per acre. For best results,
|
||
apply the mixture uniformly to the soil with properly calibrated equipment immediately
|
||
after blending. Uniform application of the herbicide/fertilizer mixture is essential to
|
||
prevent possible crop injury and achieve weed control. Non-uniform application will
|
||
result in unsatisfactory weed control. In areas where conventional tillage is practiced, a
|
||
shallow incorporation of the mixture into the soil may improve weed control. On fine- or
|
||
medium-textured soils in areas where soil incorporation is not planned, i.e., reduced
|
||
tillage situations or in some conventional till situations, make applications approximately
|
||
30 days before planting to allow moisture to move the herbicide/fertilizer mixture into the
|
||
soil. On coarse-textured soils, make applications approximately 14 days prior to
|
||
planting.
|
||
|
||
Precaution: To avoid crop injury, do not use the herbicide/fertilizer mixture on crops
|
||
where bedding occurs.
|
||
|
||
VARIABLE-RATE APPLICATION
|
||
|
||
Variable-Rate Broadcast Ground Application for Corn and Soybeans
|
||
|
||
Variable-rate technologies may be used for more precise applications. Two additive
|
||
factors have been determined for use in applications using variable-rate technologies.
|
||
One of these factors (A) is directly related to soil texture and the other (B) is related to
|
||
percent organic matter (OM) and soil texture. When these two factors are added
|
||
together, the resulting application rate will be more precise for a soil of a given soil
|
||
|
||
