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: 582526
|
||
|
||
Dear Wes Marchione:
|
||
|
||
The Agency is in receipt of your Application for Pesticide Notification under Pesticide
|
||
Registration Notice (PRN) 98-10 for the above referenced product. The Registration Division
|
||
(RD) has conducted a review of this request for its applicability under PRN 98-10 and finds that
|
||
the action requested falls within the scope of PRN 98-10.
|
||
|
||
The label submitted with the application has been stamped “NOTIFICATION” and placed in our
|
||
records.
|
||
|
||
The alternate brand name, “Realm Q Herbicide” has been added to the product record.
|
||
|
||
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 the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
|
||
Rodenticide Act (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.

||
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||
|
||
DO NOT apply directly to water, or 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. DO NOT apply where/when conditions could favor runoff.
|
||
|
||
Surface Water Advisory
|
||
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly
|
||
draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. 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
|
||
vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features including
|
||
ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of this product from runoff water and
|
||
sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation
|
||
is expected to occur within 48 hours.
|
||
|
||
Windblown Soil Particles Advisory
|
||
This product has the potential to move off-site due to wind erosion. Soils that are subject to wind erosion
|
||
usually have a high silt and/or fine to very fine sand fractions and low organic matter content. Other
|
||
factors which can affects the movement of windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing
|
||
winds, vegetative cover, site slope, rainfall, and drainage patterns. Avoid applying this product if
|
||
|
||
Q2M / Realm Q / MSTR / Notification with edits / 03-29-23 Page 3
|
||
|
||
prevailing local conditions may be expected to result in off-site movement.
|
||
|
||
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 area. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target
|
||
organisms by minimizing spray drift. For further guidance and instructions on how to minimize spray drift,
|
||
refer to the Spray Drift Management section of this label.
|
||
|
||

PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm® Q is a selective herbicide for burndown and residual control of certain annual grass and
|
||
broadleaf weeds when applied postemergence to field corn grown for grain or silage.
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm Q can be tank mixed with a variety of herbicides to improve burndown and residual
|
||
control.
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm Q is absorbed through the roots and leaf tissue of plants, rapidly inhibiting the growth of
|
||
susceptible weeds. Rainfall or sprinkler irrigation is needed to move DuPont Realm Q into the soil.
|
||
Susceptible weeds will generally not emerge from a postemerge application with activating rainfall or
|
||
sprinkler irrigation (>0.5 inch). In some cases, susceptible weeds may germinate and emerge a few days
|
||
after application, but growth then ceases, and leaves become chlorotic three to five days after
|
||
emergence. Death of leaf tissue and growing point will follow in some species, while others will remain
|
||
green, stunted and noncompetitive.
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm Q is best used as part of a sequential application herbicide program, following a before-
|
||
planting application of ALLUVEX™, BASIS® Blend, Cinch® brands, INSTIGATE™, Keystone NXT®
|
||
brands, LEADOFF®, PREQUEL®, Resicore®®, RESOLVE® Q, SureStart®® herbicides and/or other pre-
|
||
applied corn herbicides. Refer to the label of the respective corn herbicide partner for specific use
|
||
directions.
|
||
|
||
For post emergence applications of DuPont Realm Q, if activating rainfall or sprinkler irrigation (>0.5 inch)
|
||
is not received within 5 to 7 days after application, follow with a cultivation or with a sequential application
|
||
of ACCENT® Q herbicide, Revulin™ Q herbicide, STEADFAST ® Q, or glyphosate (including ABUNDIT®
|
||
Edge or Durango®® DMA®®) as needed.
|
||
|
||
|
||

|
||
- DO NOT apply DuPont Realm Q or drain or flush application equipment on or near desirable
|
||
trees or other plants, or on areas where their roots may extend, or in locations where the
|
||
chemical may be washed or moved into contract with their roots.
|
||
- DO NOT use on lawns, walks, driveways, tennis courts. Prevent drift or spray onto desirable
|
||
plants.
|
||
- DO NOT contaminate any body of water.

|
||
specific crop section on the label.
|
||
x DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
x This product contains 0.0375 pound of the safener isoxadifen-ethyl per pound of product. Applying
|
||
the maximum application rate of DuPont Realm Q at 4 ounces per acre will deliver 0.01 pound of
|
||
isoxadifen-ethyl per acre. When tank mixing for applications to field corn, DO NOT apply more than a
|
||
total of 0.17 pound of isoxadifen-ethyl per acre per year.
|
||
|
||
|
||
PRECAUTIONS
|
||
x DuPont Realm® Q may interact with certain insecticides previously applied to the crop. Crop
|
||
response varies with field corn type, insecticide used, insecticide application methods, and soil type.
|
||
x DuPont Realm Q may be applied to corn previously treated with “Fortress” 5G, “SmartChoice” 5G,
|
||
“Aztec” 4.67% G, “Aztec 2.1G, “Force” 3G, “Force” CS, or “Force” 6.5G insecticides, or other non-
|
||
organophosphate soil insecticides regardless of soil type.
|
||
x DuPont Realm Q may be applied with pyrethroid type insecticides, including “Asana” XL and
|
||
“Warrior” or with diamide type insecticides.
|
||
x Crop injury may occur following an application of DuPont Realm Q if there is a prolonged period of
|
||
cold weather and/or in conjunction with wet soils.Prevent drift or spray onto desirable plants.
|
||
x Thoroughly clean application equipment immediately after use (See Sprayer Cleanup section of this
|
||
label).
|
||
|
||
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
DuPont Realm Q, which contains the active ingredients rimsulfuron and mesotrione, is both a Group 2
|
||
and a Group 27 herbicide based on the mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society
|
||
of America.
|
||
|
||
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations
|
||
|
||
Q2M / Realm Q / MSTR / Notification with edits / 03-29-23 Page 12
|
||
|
||
resistant to one or more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed management program may
|
||
include the use of multiple herbicides with different sites of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or
|
||
without tillage operations and/or other cultural practices. Research has demonstrated that using the
|
||
labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for resistance.
|
||
|
||
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the successful implementation of a weed
|
||
resistance management program.
|
||
|
||
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users should:
|
||
x Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species
|
||
and weed sizes present.
|
||
x Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
|
||
x Control weeds early when they are relatively small (less than 4 inches).
|
||
x Apply full rates of
|
||
DuPont Realm Q herbicide for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the
|
||
specified time (correct weed size) to minimize weed escapes.
|
||
x Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
|
||
x Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
|
||
x Report any incidence of non-performance of this product against a particular weed to your DuPont
|
||
company representative, local retailer, or county extension agent.
|
||
x Contact your DuPont company representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if
|
||
suspected resistant weeds to this MOA have been found in your region. If resistant biotypes of target
|
||
weeds have been reported, use the application rates of this product specified for your local
|
||
conditions. Tank mix products so that there are multiple effective sites of actions for each target
|
||
weed.
|
||
x If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbicide having a site of action other than
|
||
Group 2 or 27 and/or use nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of
|
||
preventing further seed production.
|
||
x Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
|
||
x Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially
|
||
if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
x A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
|
||
x Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
|
||
Additionally, users should follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as
|
||
is practical:
|
||
x Use a broad-spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed
|
||
control program.
|
||
x Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
|
||
x Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 2 or 27 herbicides.
|
||
x Avoid making more than two applications of
|
||
DuPont Realm Q and any other Group 2 or 27
|
||
herbicides within a single growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action
|
||
with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-to-control weeds.
|
||
x Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, including mechanical cultivation, crop rotation,
|
||
cover crops and weed-free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
|
||
x Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development and crop competitiveness.
|
||
x Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant
|
||
weeds.
|
||
x Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.
|
||
|
||
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
|
||
This product may be used as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that can include
|
||
biological, cultural, and genetic practices aimed at preventing economic pest damage. IPM principles and
|
||
practices include field scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest identification, population
|
||
monitoring, and treating when target pest populations reach locally determined action thresholds. Consult
|
||
|
||
Q2M / Realm Q / MSTR / Notification with edits / 03-29-23 Page 13
|
||
|
||
your state cooperative extension service, professional consultant or other qualified authorities to
|
||
determine appropriate action treatment threshold levels for treating specific pest / crop systems in your
|
||
area.
|
||
|
||
|
||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||
x Apply with the nozzle height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 3 feet above the
|
||
ground or crop canopy unless making a rangeland application, in which case applicators may apply
|
||
with a nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground.
|
||
x For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use
|
||
a Coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
x For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE
|
||
S572.1).
|
||
x DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
x DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
Aerial Applications:
|
||
x DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a
|
||
greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
x For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target weeds, applicators are required to use
|
||
a Coarse or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
|
||
x For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE
|
||
S572.1).
|
||
x The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade
|
||
diameter for helicopters.
|
||
x Applicators must use one-half swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
x Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||
x DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
x DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
Boom-less Ground Applications:
|
||
x Applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1) for all
|
||
applications.
|
||
x DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
x DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 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
|
||
x 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.
|
||
|
||
Q2M / Realm Q / MSTR / Notification with edits / 03-29-23 Page 14
|
||
|
||
x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray
|
||
volume and droplet size.
|
||
x Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using
|
||
nozzles designed to reduce drift.
|
||
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
x Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to
|
||
reduce fine droplets, nozzles should 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 should 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 ft above the crop canopy, unless a greater application height is
|
||
necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
|
||
Boom-less Ground Applications:
|
||
x Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
|
||
|
||
Handheld Technology Applications:
|
||
x Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
|
||
|
||
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. Avoid applications 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.
|
||
|
||
DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVES
|
||
Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is
|
||
used, read and carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additive’s label. If
|
||
using an additive that increases viscosity, ensure that the nozzles and other application equipment will
|
||
function properly with a viscous spray solution. Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the
|
||
Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA).

postemergence applications to corn generally less than 12” tall for best overall performance.
|
||
|
||
Applications of DuPont Realm Q made after weed emergence will provide contact control of labeled
|
||
weeds as well as residual control of later emerging weeds.
|
||
|
||
Timing to Emerged Weeds
|
||
|
||
Apply DuPont Realm Q when grasses and broadleaf weeds are young and actively growing, but before
|
||
they exceed sizes listed on this label. Applications made to weed sizes greater than those listed on this
|
||
product label may result in incomplete control. Grass and broadleaf weed competition due to incomplete
|
||
control may reduce corn yields.
|
||
|
||
On “Roundup Ready” corn, glyphosate products including ABUNDIT
|
||
® Edge or Durango®® DMA®® may
|
||
be applied with DuPont Realm Q after weeds emerge but before they reach the maximum size listed on
|
||
the glyphosate herbicide label.
|
||
|
||
On "Liberty Link" corn, glufosinate may be applied with DuPont Realm Q after weeds emerge but before
|
||
they reach the maximum size listed on the glufosinate herbicide label.
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm Q is rainfast in 4 hours.
|
||
|
||
Sequential Application - Preemergence
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm Q may be used as a sequential application in a planned postemergence weed control
|
||
program in corn following a preemergence herbicide.
|
||
|
||
Apply preemergence herbicide products including ALLUVEX™, BASIS
|
||
® Blend, Cinch® ATZ, Cinch® ATZ
|
||
Lite, FulTime®® NXT, INSTIGATE™, Keystone®® NXT, Keystone®® LA NXT, LEADOFF®, PREQUEL®,
|
||
Resicore®, RESOLVE® Q, and Surpass®® NXT herbicides. Refer to the preemergence herbicide label for
|
||
use restrictions, application information, rotational crop guidelines, and cautionary statements prior to
|
||
applying DuPont Realm Q. Follow the most restrictive product labeling.
|
||
|
||
DO NOT apply DuPont Realm Q to corn that exhibits herbicide injury from previous applications made to
|
||
the current or preceding crop.
|
||
|
||
Spray Adjuvants
|
||
For control of emerged weeds, applications of DuPont Realm Q must include a crop oil concentrate or a
|
||
high surfactant oil concentrate (HSOC).

|
||
|
||
|
||
The use of a nonionic surfactant (NIS) instead of a COC or HSOC is allowed, but the weed control
|
||
achieved with COC or HSOC is consistently better than NIS. The use of methylated seed oil (MSO)
|
||
adjuvants or MSO blend adjuvants may cause severe crop injury to occur. MSO adjuvants are not
|
||
advised.
|
||
|
||
In addition to COC or HSOC, always add spray grade UAN (e.g., 28%) to the spray solution or AMS,
|
||
except if precluded elsewhere on this label.
|
||
|
||
When applied in tank mix combination with a glyphosate that contains a built-in adjuvant including
|
||
ABUNDIT
|
||
® Edge or Durango®® DMA®®, ensure the total adjuvant load is equivalent to the specifications
|
||
on this label. Select adjuvants authorized for use with both products.
|
||
|
||
Consult local DuPont company fact sheets, technical bulletins or supplemental labels prior to using other
|
||
adjuvant systems. Products must contain only EPA-exempt ingredients.
|
||
|
||
DO NOT use with spray additives that alter the pH of the spray solution below 5.0 or above 9.0 as rapid
|
||
product degradation can occur. Spray solutions of pH 6.0 – 8.0 allow for optimum stability of DuPont
|
||
Realm Q.
|
||
|
||
Petroleum Crop Oil Concentrate (COC)
|
||
x Apply at 1% (1 gallon per 100-gallon spray solution), or 2% under arid conditions.
|
||
x Oil adjuvants must contain at least 80% high quality, petroleum (mineral) oil with at least 15%
|
||
surfactant emulsifiers.
|
||
|
||
High Surfactant Oil Concentrate (HSOC)
|
||
x Apply at 0.5% (2 quarts per 100 gallons spray solution).
|
||
|
||
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
|
||
x Apply at 0.25% v/v (1 quart per 100-gallon spray solution).
|
||
x Surfactant products must contain at least 60% nonionic surfactant with a hydrophilic/lipophilic balance
|
||
(HLB) greater than 12.
|
||
x DO NOT use liquid nitrogen fertilizer as the total carrier solution for postemergence applications.
|
||
|
||
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
|
||
x Use 2 quarts per acre of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) such as 28%N or 32%N, or 2
|
||
pounds per acre of a spray-grade ammonium sulfate (AMS).
|
||
|
||
Special Adjuvant Types
|
||
x Combination adjuvant products may be used at doses that provide the required amounts of NIS,
|
||
COC, and/or ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. Consult product literature for use rates and restrictions.

It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read
|
||
and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in
|
||
tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of
|
||
each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||

|
||
glyphosate resistant corn hybrids. Refer to the Spray Adjuvants section for additional information on
|
||
proper adjuvant selection.
|
||
|
||
When used in a tank mixture with glyphosate herbicide, 4.0 ounces DuPont Realm Q will deliver improved
|

DuPont Realm Q Applied 4.0 oz/acre with Glufosinate
|
||
Realm Q may be tank mixed with glufosinate herbicide if applications are made to glufosinate resistant
|
||
corn hybrids. Consult with your seed supplier to confirm the corn hybrid is glufosinate resistant before
|
||
applying any herbicide containing glufosinate.
|
||
|
||
Tank Mixtures - Additional Control of Broadleaf and Grass Weeds
|
||
DuPont Realm Q may be tank mixed with other post-emergence labeled grass and broadleaf herbicides
|
||
such as atrazine, dicamba, CINCH®ATZ, CINCH®ATZ Lite, FulTime®® NXT, Keystone®® NXT,
|
||
Keystone®® LA NXT, ACCENT® Q, Resicore®®, and DuPont ™ REVULIN™ Q to provide added residual
|
||
or burndown activity on emerged weeds. Consult tank mix partner labeling for rate and soil-type
|
||
restrictions. Read and follow all manufacturers' label instructions for the companion herbicide(s). DO NOT
|
||
use a tank mix partner product if its label conflicts with this DuPont Realm Q label.
|
||
|
||
Q2M / Realm Q / MSTR / Notification with edits / 03-29-23 Page 19
|
||
|
||
|
||
Ensure the tank mix product is labeled for the same timing, method of application, adjuvants, and use
|
||
restrictions as DuPont Realm Q, as well as other products used in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||
As EC formulations, acetochlor or metolachlor products including CINCH ® or Surpass® NXT, can act like
|
||
an adjuvant in certain combinations and thus increase the risk of crop injury. If these tank mixtures are
|
||
used, the user must leave the crop oil concentrate (COC) out of the adjuvant mix.
|
||
|
||
DuPont Realm Q may be tank mixed with atrazine formulations including CINCH
|
||
® ATZ, CINCH® ATZ Lite,
|
||
FulTime®® NXT, Keystone®® NXT, Keystone®® LA NXT or products that contain the same active
|
||
ingredients, but special attention must be paid to adjuvant selection and/or application method. If any of
|
||
these tank mixtures are used the user must leave the urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) out of the mix. There
|
||
is still a risk of temporary crop injury in the form of leaf burn with these mixtures. To further reduce the risk
|
||
of crop injury, also leave out the crop oil concentrate (COC) and replace it with a nonionic surfactant
|
||
(NIS).
|
||
|
||
The control of emerged weeds may be reduced due to less than optimum adjuvant effect or weed
|
||
coverage and there is still a risk of temporary crop injury in the form of leaf burn with these mixtures.
|
||
|
||
The crop safety of all possible tank mixture combinations with DuPont Realm Q which may include
|
||
physically compatible pesticides, fertilizers, adjuvants and/or additives has not been tested.
|
||
|
||
To the extent consistent with applicable law, DuPont Corteva Agriscience will not be responsible for any
|
||
crop injury arising from the use of a tank mixture that is not specifically described on the DuPont Realm Q
|
||
product labeling or in other DuPont Corteva Agriscience product use instructions.
|
||
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read
|
||
and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in
|
||
tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of
|
||
each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||
Tank Mix Compatibility Testing
|
||
Perform a jar test prior to tank mixing to ensure compatibility of DuPont Realm Q and other pesticides.
|
||
Use a clear quart jar with lid and mix the tank mix ingredients in their relative proportions. Invert the jar
|
||
containing the mixture several times and observe the mixture for approximately 1/2 hour. If the mixture
|
||
balls-ups, forms flakes, sludge, gel, oily film or layers, or other precipitates, it is not compatible, and the
|
||
tank mix combination cannot be used.
|
||
|
||
Mixing Instructions
|
||
|
||
Water Carrier Instructions
|
||
|
||
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water
|
||
2. While agitating, add the required amount of
|
||
DuPont Realm® Q
|
||
3. Continue agitation until the DuPont Realm Q is fully dispersed
|
||
4. Once dispersed, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with water
|
||
5. As tanks fills, add desired tank mix partners
|
||
6. If not continuously agitated, settling will occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-agitate before using
|
||
7. Apply mixture within 48 hours of mixing for best results
|
||
|
||
If the selected companion herbicide has a ground or surface water advisory, consider this advisory when
|
||
using the companion herbicide.

|
||
ROTATIONAL CROP GUIDELINES
|
||
Rotational crops vary in their crop response to low concentrations of DuPont Realm Q remaining in the
|
||
soil. The amount of DuPont Realm Q that may be present in the soil depends on soil moisture, soil
|
||
temperature, application rate, elapsed time since application and other environmental factors. When
|
||
DuPont Realm Q is used in combination with other products, always follow the most restrictive rotational
|
||
crop requirements.
|
||
|
||
The following rotational intervals must be observed when using DuPont Realm Q:

- Application of DuPont Realm Q applied no later than June 30 the year preceding rotational crop planting.
|
||
- No other HPPD herbicides were applied the year prior to planting peas and snap beans.
|
||
|
||
2 DO NOT plant peas or snap beans on sand, sandy loam or loamy sands in Minnesota or Wisconsin.
|
||
|
||
x Planting unspecified rotational crops, or those rotational crops that are specified at shorter than listed
|
||
intervals may result in injury to the rotational crop.
|
||
|
||
SPRAYER PREPARATION/CLEANUP
|
||
It is important that spray equipment is clean and free of previous pesticide deposits before using DuPont
|
||
Realm Q, and then properly cleaned out following application. Clean all application equipment before
|
||
applying DuPont Realm Q. Follow the cleanup procedures specified on the label of the product previously
|
||
sprayed. If no cleanup procedure is provided, use the procedure that follows. Immediately following
|
||
applications of DuPont Realm Q, thoroughly clean all mix and spray equipment to avoid subsequent crop
|
||
injury.
|
||
|
||
Note:
|
||
|
||
When cleaning spray equipment before applying DuPont Realm Q, read and follow label directions for
|
||
proper rinsate disposal of the product previously sprayed.
|
||
|
||
When spraying or mixing equipment will be used over an extended period to apply multiple loads of
|
||
DuPont Realm Q, partially fill the tank with fresh water at the end of each day of spraying, flush the boom
|
||
and hoses, and allow to sit overnight.
|
||
|
||
Cleanup Procedure
|
||
|
||
1. Drain the tank and hose down the interior surfaces with clean water
|
||
2. Partially fill the tank with clean water and add one gallon of household ammonia* (containing 3%
|
||
active) for every 100 gallons of water. Finish filling tank with water, then flush the cleaning solution
|
||
through the hoses, boom, and nozzles. Add more water to completely fill the tank and allow agitating /
|
||
re-circulating for at least 15 minutes. Again, flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles with the cleaning
|
||
solution, then drain the tank.
|
||
3. Repeat Step 2
|
||
4. Remove the nozzles, screens and the end caps of sprayer booms and clean separately in a bucket
|
||
containing the cleaning agent and water.
|
||
5. Thoroughly rinse the tank with clean water for a minimum of 5 minutes, flushing the water through the
|
||
hoses and boom.
|
||
|
||
*Equivalent amount of an alternate strength ammonia solution or a tank cleaner specified in the DuPont
|
||
bulletin “Sulfonylurea Herbicides, A Guide to Equipment Cleanout” may be used.
