notES:
1. The prefix organic is applied to the above mineral texture classes if organic matter levels are relatively high. The sands and loamy sands, however, appear organic when they only contain about 6% matter, whereas clays appear organic at about 10%. Organic matter levels between 1 and 10% cannot be detected by texture, and must be determined by analysis. 2. The prefix peaty is applied when organic matter levels are between 20% and 35%. Peat soils are those containing more than 35% of organic matter. 3. The organic matter percentages refer to the values determined by the chromic acid oxidation technique, and not by the loss on ignition technique which can produce considerably higher values. 4. The risk of herbicide leaching on stony or gravelly soils is greater and textural grouping for such soils may need to be modified. In stony soils, stone (particles greater than 2mm) content is 5-15% by volume. In very stony soils, stone content is more than 15%. 5. The prefix calcareous (Calc) is applied when soils contain more than 5% calcium carbonate.

DiRECtiOns FOR UsE

iMPORtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.
REstRiCtiOns
Seed to be treated with Agrichem HY-PRO Duet should be of satisfactory quality and moisture content. Treated seed should be sown as soon as possible after treatment, and should not be stored from one season to the following season.
FOLLOWinG CROPs
Any crop may be sown after growing a crop of oilseed rape where the seed was treated with Agrichem HY-PRO Duet
APPLiCAtiOn
Agrichem HY-PRO Duet can be applied through most types of seed treatment machinery, from automated, continuous flow machines, to smaller batch treating apparatus. It is a ready to use, flowable formulation. Do not co-apply Agrichem HY-PRO Duet with water. Ensure the product is thoroughly agitated before each application in order to achieve an even loading. Check drill calibration before drilling seed treated with Agrichem HY-PRO Duet.
Handling and use of iBCs

iMPORtAnt: containers of greater than 20 litres capacity should only be handled with mechanical assistance. Always use the drum valve closures and compatible couplers to remove, agitate and/or re-suspend Agrichem HY-PRO Duet from the IBC. Place the container on a firm level surface, near a transfer or metering pump. Wear correct protective clothing (gloves, coveralls, rubber boots and face protection) when carrying out the coupling, uncoupling or agitation procedures. ALWAYS follow the operating instructions. Additional information for use of DRUM VALVE CLOsURE DRUM VALVE - Connection Attach coupler to valve ensuring handle is in fully-up position. Turn coupler clockwise approximately 90 to engage until a stop is reached. Press down coupler handle so that locking mechanism is engaged. Drum can now be emptied. DRUM VALVE - Disconnection Press down coupler handle and depress locking mechanism allowing handle to spring up, closing valve in drum. Turn coupler handle anti-clockwise and remove from drum.
Operating instructions to Connect: 1. Switch off the transfer pump. 2. Check that entry and exit couplers are attached to the ends of the flexible suction tubes. 3. Attach the exit and entry couplers to their respective ports on the IBC. NB: These couplers are not interchangeable. (Refer to Additional information for use of Drum Valve Closures for instruction on connecting and disconnecting the couplers.) 4. Once these couplers are connected the product is ready for use. Refer to the Instructions for Use of the transfer pump. Whilst the transfer pump is connected as described the product is agitated by being returned to the bulk. This is sufficient agitation for daily use. to Disconnect: 1. Switch off the transfer pump. 2. Release the entry and exit couplers and lodge them in the designated spots. WARninG: during disconnection of the container it is possible that small quantities of Agrichem HY-PRO Duet may remain in or on the couplings and fittings. It is therefore essential that operators maintain procedures that aim to contain this potential minor spillage of product. Empty containers must be treated in the same manner as full or part used containers. This is as a precaution, should they contain a significant residual volume. Any damage to the container should be reported to the supplier. DO NOT remove or tamper with any of the IBC fixtures or fittings.
Agitation
to Re-suspend
Turn the ball valve in the service line to the off position and open the ball valve in the return line. Switch on the transfer pump. All the Agrichem HY-PRO Duet present in the lines will be delivered back to the transfer pump. Maintain this operation for 30 minutes to completely re-suspend the product. When this agitation process is completed, switch off the transfer pump, open the ball valve in the service line and close the ball valve in the return line. The transfer pump should be switched off when it is not required for agitation or delivery of product.

3
if the product has been left to stand for more than 2 months, full agitation may be necessary to re-suspend the product before use. The pump will need to run for at least 30 minutes to re-suspend the product.
CROP sPECiFiC inFORMAtiOn

Agrichem HY-PRO Duet is applied to winter oilseed rape seed for the control of seedborne Phoma lingam. It also controls the soil-borne fungi that are the cause of damping off of seedlings. Use at a rate of 9 mls per kg seed. Good coverage of the seed surface is essential for control of seed-borne disease.
COMPAtiBiLitY
Agrichem HY-PRO Duet is nOt compatible with any other seed treatment as a tankmix. DO nOt mix Agrichem HY-PRO Duet with any other seed treatment product before use.
COMPAnY ADVisORY inFORMAtiOn

Agrichem HY-PRO Duet contains protectant fungicides with activity against seedborne Phoma lingam. It will not control symptoms of Phoma such as leaf spotting, where these arise from spores from trash in the seed bed. It has no insecticidal activity and a suitable insecticide treatment may be required to protect seedlings from flea beetle or cabbage stem flea beetle damage. Agrichem HY-PRO Duet is a coloured formulation, appearing blue on the seed surface. If an alternative colour is required, a co-application with a Polymer coating treatment or coloured insecticidal seed treatment may be possible. Bayer CropScience can advise on the use of other co-applied treatments with Agrichem HY-PRO Duet.

DiRECtions FoR UsE

iMPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Artist is a water-dispersible granular formulation for use as a pre-emergence selective herbicide, acting through root uptake, for the control of annual weeds in early and maincrop potatoes.
REstRiCtions
Do not treat Maris Piper grown on Sands or Very Light Soils (ADAS 85 Classification). The maximum residue level for flufenacet is 0.1 mg/kg and must not be exceeded.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
Strains of some annual grasses, e.g. black-grass, wild oats, and Italian rye-grass, have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop adviser or product manufacturer. The following annual weeds are controlled by a pre-emergence application of Artist:
Broad-leaved weeds Black-bindweed (MS) Common chickweed Cleavers (MS) Red dead-nettle Fat-hen Fools parsley Groundsel Knotgrass Scented mayweed Black nightshade (MS) Common orache Field pansy Redshank Annual mercury Grass weeds Black-grass Annual meadow-grass Italian rye-grass
MS Moderately susceptible; higher levels of control are often achieved. When applied for control of other weeds, evidence shows that Artist also has activity against Black-grass and Italian rye-grass.
Artist
Artist
Artist does not control perennial weeds. In situations where potatoes follow grass an autumn herbicide treatment or cultivations should be used to kill out the sward. Shoots appearing from any surviving turves may be controlled post-planting, but before crop emergence, using an approved product containing paraquat or diquat/paraquat.
CRoPs sPECiFiC inFoRMAtion

The following potato varieties may be treated with Artist before crop emergence:
First Earlies Alcmaria Arran Comet Maris Bard Ostara Pentland Javelin Ulster Sceptre second Earlies Ausonia Estima Marfona Maris Peer Nadine Wilja Maincrop Cara Desiree King Edward Kingston Maris Piper # Pentland Crown Pentland Dell Pentland Squire Record Romano
Do NOT treat Maris Piper grown on Sands or Very Light Soils (ADAS 85 Classification).
For information on other potato varieties please contact Bayer CropScience Limited or your Artist distributor.
APPLiCAtion
Apply at a rate of 2.5 kg product/ha. Application must be before emergence of the crop and weeds. Apply as a MEDiUM quality spray (BCPC Classification) using not less than 200 litres water per hectare. Increase the water volume where any soil clods are unavoidably present. Artist may be applied on all soil types except Sands (ADAS Classification). For optimal weed control soils must be sufficiently moist at or shortly after application to ensure adequate uptake of active ingredient via the roots of germinating weed seedlings. Effectiveness will be reduced under dry soil conditions. Ridges should be well rounded with few clods. Cultivations should produce a soil tilth that requires no further improvement after planting. Cultivation after spraying will encourage weed germination and reduce the residual activity of Artist. On mineral soils with a high organic matter content and on peaty or organic soils the residual activity of Artist may be reduced. On stony or gravelly soils there is a risk of crop damage, especially if heavy rain falls soon after application. Ensure Artist is applied evenly overall to both sides of potato ridges. Care must be taken to ensure that application takes place before crop emergence.
Artist
herbicide
3
Artist sprayed onto any part of the potato plant will cause crop damage; therefore, it is essential that application is made before there are any visible signs of potato shoots emerging from the soil. Take care to avoid spray drift onto neighbouring crops; particularly sensitive crops which include lettuce and brassicas.
MiXinG
Half-fill the spray tank with clean water. Commence agitation. Steadily add the recommended quantity of Artist to the spray tank (pre-mixing is not necessary). Complete filling and maintain agitation of the suspension before and during spraying until the tank is empty. After spraying, thoroughly clean and flush out application machinery with a minimum of three rinses. Ensure that all traces of the product are removed.
sUCCEEDinG CRoPs
Before drilling or planting any succeeding crop the soil MUst be mouldboard ploughed to a depth of at least 15 cm taking care to ensure that the furrow slice is inverted. Ploughing should be carried out as soon as possible (preferably within 3-4 weeks) after lifting the potato crop, but certainly no later than the end of December.
in the same Calendar Year

Provided at least 16 weeks have elapsed after the application of the recommended rate of Artist, the following crops may be grown; cereals or winter beans. In West Cornwall, on soils with more than 5% organic matter, early potatoes which have been treated with the recommended rate of Artist may be followed by summer planted brassica crops provided that at least 14 weeks have elapsed from spraying, spring rainfall was normal, and that mouldboard ploughing takes place after potato lifting and before drilling or transplanting the brassica crop.
in the Following Calendar Year

Do not grow any vegetable brassica crop (including cauliflowers, calabrese, Brussels sprouts and cabbages) on silt soils in Lincolnshire, or lettuce and radish crops anywhere in the UK, on land treated with Artist in the previous year. Any other crop may be grown from spring onwards in the calendar year following use of Artist.
CoMPAtiBiLitY
Artist may be applied as a tank-mix with a range of products. Full manufacturers instructions must be followed for each tank-mix component. Contact Bayer CropScience for compatibility information on specific tank-mixes. For the very latest tank-mix information please refer to: www.bayercropscience.co.uk

REstRiCtions
Do not use Atlantis WG on crops undersown with grasses, clover or other legumes or any other broad-leaved crop. Only the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or in tank-mixture with Atlantis WG: Chekker; Sekator; Eagle or Pursuit. Atlantis WG must not be applied to any crop suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, pest or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Because some non-target crops are sensitive to Atlantis WG, extreme care is required to avoid drift onto plants outside the target area, or onto ponds, waterways or ditches. Do not apply Atlantis WG when rain is imminent. Do not apply during periods of frosty weather. Store in a safe dry place designated as an agrochemical store.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
This product contains mesosulfuron-methyl and iodosulfuron-methyl which are ALS inhibitors, also classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee as Group B. Use only as part of a resistance management strategy that includes cultural methods of control and does not use ALS inhibitors as the sole chemical method of grass-weed control. Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye -grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.

Atlantis WG
Atlantis WG
Atlantis WG is readily translocated within the target weed, inhibiting growth within hours of application. The actual time taken for herbicidal symptoms to appear and death varies between weed species, timing of application and weather conditions. In some cases symptoms may not be apparent for up to 4 weeks. Optimum grass weed control will be obtained when all grass weeds are emerged at spraying. Weeds germinating after application will not be controlled. Due to the potential for yield loss without prior signs of crop phytotoxicity, avoid use of Atlantis WG to control light infestations of grass weeds. As Atlantis WG is active primarily via foliar uptake good spray coverage of the target weed is essential for optimal efficacy. For optimal activity, apply when weather conditions promote active weed growth. Atlantis WG controls emerged weeds on all soil types. Atlantis WG has a moderate residual life in soil under normal conditions. As residual activity is important for optimal activity, avoid application under very dry conditions on to very dry soil. Residual efficacy will be enhanced where seedbeds are fine and moist. High soil temperatures and cloddy seedbeds may reduce the residual efficacy of Atlantis WG. The presence of enhanced metabolism herbicide resistant populations of Italian rye- grass may lead to unacceptable levels of control. To reduce the risk of developing resistance or where resistance to sulfonylurea herbicides is suspected, applications should be made to young, actively growing weeds. Key aspects of the Atlantis WG resistance management strategy are: ALWAYs follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant grass and broad-leaved weeds. Do not use Atlantis WG as a stand-alone treatment for black-grass, rye-grass or common chickweed. Use only in tank mixture or in sequence with herbicides with non-ALS modes of action. iDEALLY apply Atlantis WG as early as possible and before GS 31 of grass-weeds. Do not use Atlantis WG as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYs use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with non-ALS modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYs monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Only one of the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or in tank-mixture with Atlantis WG: Chekker; Sekator; Eagle or Pursuit and only if used in conjunction with a robust non-ALS inhibitor autumn herbicide programme, this is particularly important where both components are applied in the spring. These sequences and tank-mixtures must only be applied in accordance with label recommendations for every product in the sequence or tank-mixture. Aside from those listed above, do not use in sequence or tank-mixture with any other ALS inhibitors, such as sulphonylureas. As part of the Herbicide Resistance Management Strategy for Atlantis WG, do not apply Chekker or Sekator in sequence with Atlantis WG for the control of common chickweed in order to avoid increased selection for herbicide resistant individuals. Do not tank-mix with chlorpyrifos. Allow at least 14 days before or after chlorpyrifos treatments.

Ear Disease Complex

Apply Aviator 235Xpro soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for control of Fusarium ear blight in wheat and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears.
Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis)

Apply Aviator 235Xpro in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later.
REsistAnCE stRAtEGY
Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action against the diseases present have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. No more than two applications of SDH inhibitors must be applied to the same cereal crop. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Aviator 235Xpro cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Aviator 235Xpro is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Speed of activity is usually dependent on temperature and growing conditions. Activity can be slow under cool conditions. Moist soils at and after application are necessary to give the best results. Following treatment, crops occasionally show transient discoloration on the leaves.
CRoP sPECifiC infoRmAtion

Good weed control depends on burying any trash or straw before or during seedbed preparation.

Loose and fluffy seedbeds should be rolled before application. The final seed bed should be fine and firm and should not contain clods greater than fist size. The crop should be drilled to the normal depth of 2.5 cm. It is important to ensure that the seed is well covered.
Winter wheat, winter barley and spring barley

Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer at a rate of 1.0 L/ha. Apply in 200-400 L/ha as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Use the higher volume where crop or weed foliage is dense. A spray pressure of at least 2 bars is advised. Good even spray coverage of soil and weeds is essential. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap as there is a risk of crop discolouration, particularly when application is made to soft rapidly growing crops. These effects are transitory in nature and will normally have no adverse effect on grain yield. Only one application of Bacara should be made to the crop. Apply pre- or post-crop emergence from the first expanded true-leaf stage (GS11) when susceptible weeds have not passed the stage shown in the above table, and before the crop reaches the second node detectable stage (GS32).

In the event of a winter cereal crop failure for any reason, soil treated with Bacara can be re-drilled immediately with winter wheat, after normal cultivation. Ploughing is not essential. Re-drilling may also take place with winter barley, but only after ploughing. Fields must be ploughed and an interval of 20 weeks should elapse between treatment and subsequent planting of the following spring-sown crops: spring wheat and potatoes. An interval of 18 weeks is required for spring oilseed rape, field beans and peas. Re-drilling (before the subsequent autumn) must only take place with listed crops. In the event of a spring barley crop failure for any reason, soil treated with BACARA can be re-drilled with any of the named crops listed above where the same interval and cultural practices are conducted prior to re-drilling.
subsequent cropping in the normal rotation

Where Bacara and other products containing diflufenican are applied to successive cereal crops, levels of diflufenican will build up in the soil. Ploughing with complete inversion of the furrow must take place before planting any following non-cereal crop. Even where ploughing is carried out, there may still be a risk of damage to following crops of onions, leek and related species, or clover. As a precaution, users who rent out their land to growers of these crops should not use diflufenican containing products in successive years before renting out the land. subsequent autumn cropping in the normal rotation After harvest, soils previously treated with Bacara should be ploughed (ensuring complete inversion of the furrow slice) or cultivated to a depth of 15 cm. Thorough mixing of the soil must take place before drilling field beans, leaf brassicae or winter oilseed rape. For sugar beet seed crops and winter onions the soil must be ploughed ensuring complete inversion of the furrow slice. Avoid excessive compaction. Autumn sown cereals can be drilled as normal. Only drill crops listed. Occasionally in brassica crops some seedlings may show slight discoloration on the cotyledons. These effects are quickly outgrown and should not affect subsequent growth.

DiRECtions FoR UsE

iMPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Betanal maxxim is a selective herbicide for post-emergence use on sugar beet. As Betanal maxxim is a contact material, its activity is not affected by soil type and it may be used on all soils, including fen peats. Betanal maxxim is recommended for low volume overall spraying in a planned spray programme and can follow an Approved pre-emergence herbicide and / or Approved post-emergence herbicide treatment(s) used at doses recommended for low dose programmes.
REstRiCtions
Crop tolerance
Under certain conditions Sugar Beet and other members of the Beet family are susceptible to checks by herbicides which are normally considered safe. Betanal maxxim should not be used where crops are under stress from previous herbicide applications, insect attack, nutrient deficiency or where frost, low or high temperatures or wind damage may predispose the crop to a check, or where rolling or harrowing has been carried out within 7 days.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
Effect on weeds
Betanal maxxim is absorbed by the leaves of emerged weeds and the susceptible species are killed by its scorching action. Betanal maxxim has no residual action. The effects of spraying can be seen within 2-3 days in warm weather, or up to 10 days after application in cold conditions. A single application of Betanal maxxim is seldom sufficient to achieve adequate season long weed control.
Betanal maxxim
Betanal maxxim
Weeds susceptible at expanded cotyledon stage* to a series of well-timed Betanal maxxim low volume sprays:

Any early germinating susceptible weeds beyond the cotyledon stage when sprayed may not be killed by the first treatment, but will usually be checked and then controlled by later applications.
Weeds whose control is less reliable from repeat applications at low volume (expanded cotyledon stage unless otherwise stated):
Annual meadow-grass (GS11) Cleavers Clover Fools Parsley Geranium spp.
Other annual grass weeds and perennial weeds are not controlled by Betanal maxxim low volume sequences.

All commercially grown varieties of sugar beet may be treated with Betanal maxxim, or with Betanal maxxim mixtures.
Dosage
Maximum individual Dose 1 L/ha Maximum total Dose 3 L/ha Volume 80 to 100 litres of water per hectare. Do not exceed this volume. To do so may result in crystallisation and nozzle blockage.

spray Quality
Betanal maxxim should be applied overall as a FINE quality spray (for details see Boom Sprayers Handbook published by BCPC). The required spray quality can be achieved by selecting an appropriate combination of nozzles, pressure and forward speed. Fan or hollow cone nozzles which have an output of 0.3 to 0.6 litres per minute at 3 bar have been found to be suitable. Fan nozzles must have at least an 80 spray angle. F80 -110 / 0.3-0.6 / 3 HC - / 0.3-0.6 / 3
Even cover with a FINE quality spray is essential for good results. Take care to avoid overlapping.
Drift
Avoid drift to areas outside those being sprayed, having due regard to the prevailing weather conditions and spray quality being used. The risk of drift is greater when a FINE quality spray, as recommended for this product, is used.
tiMinG
Betanal maxxim can be safely applied to healthy crops at any stage of crop growth. See CoMPAtiBiLitY AnD sEQUEnCEs for timing of Betanal maxxim mixtures. The first Betanal maxxim application should be made when the earliest germinating weeds have reached the fully expanded cotyledon stage. This is essential on organic soils and on mineral soils where a pre-emergence treatment has not been applied. On mineral soils, where a pre-emergence spray has been used, the first Betanal maxxim spray may be delayed until the first flush of weeds reaches cotyledon stage. Where a pre-emergence treatment has been applied as a band spray, it will be necessary to time the first post-emergence Betanal maxxim low volume treatment according to the size of weeds present between the rows where there is no preemergence effect. Further Betanal maxxim sprays must be applied as each new flush of weeds reaches cotyledon stage. Successful results from a low volume programme are achieved by applying each spray when the previous one is still showing an effect on the weeds, but a minimum of 7 days must elapse between treatments.
Latest time of application

Factors Affecting Crop tolerance

Several factors may affect the tolerance of the crop to Betanal maxxim especially when used in mixtures. These factors may individually appear to have little effect but they may be important when two or more are operating at the same time. Where the crop is under stress, application of Betanal maxxim can lead to crop check from which it may not fully recover and some loss of crop may occur. These factors may have more effect where the crop is suffering check from an earlier herbicide treatment. Application of Betanal maxxim is not recommended when the crop is suffering from stress. Stress can be caused by a number of circumstances, the most important of which are as follows: Nutrient deficiency such as manganese Soil acidity Substantial day to night temperature fluctuations Periods of low temperature or frost High light intensity (ie. full sunlight - May to June) Wind or hail damage Pest or fungal attack. Temperature above 21C (70 F) on the day of spraying. When the temperature is, or is likely to be, above 21C (70F) on the day of spraying, application of Betanal maxxim should be made after 5pm otherwise crop check may occur.
sprayer Materials
Hosing, particularly of non-reinforced PVC, may swell or soften after prolonged contact with Betanal maxxim. Wherever possible use reinforced PVC or synthetic rubber hoses. Clips must be used on all hose unions. Softening and swelling is minimised by draining and washing thoroughly with water and liquid detergent immediately after use. The hoses should be drained and left open to the air.

Crop
The first Betanal maxxPro application may be made when the majority of crop plants have reached the fully expanded cotyledon stage.
Weeds
The first flush of weeds should preferably not be larger than the fully expanded cotyledon stage at the time of spraying and must not be larger than the sizes stated under WEEDS CONTROLLED. Where a pre-emergence treatment has been applied as a band spray, it will be necessary to time the first post-emergence Betanal maxxPro treatment according to the size of weeds present between the rows where there is no pre-emergence effect. A single application of Betanal maxxPro is seldom sufficient to achieve season long weed control. Susceptible weeds may not all be killed by the first treatment. They will usually be checked and then controlled by later applications. Further Betanal maxxPro sprays should be applied as each new flush of weeds reaches the cotyledon stage. Successful results from a programme are achieved by applying each spray when the previous one is still showing an effect on the weeds, but a minimum of 5 days must elapse between treatments.

Crop tolerance
Several factors may affect the crop tolerance and performance of Betanal maxxPro especially when used in mixtures. Some transient crop effects may occur soon after application but when the crop is under stress, application of Betanal maxxPro can lead to crop check from which it may not fully recover. In extreme cases some loss of crop may occur. Application of Betanal maxxPro or Betanal maxxPro mixtures is not recommended when the crop is suffering from stress. Stress can be caused by a number of circumstances, the most important of which are as follows.
Use after other Herbicides

Most beet crops are treated with more than one herbicide. In these circumstances it is not always possible to predict the interactions which may occur, and the effects of stresses in such conditions may be more severe.
Manganese Deficiency
If a crop is suffering from manganese deficiency it may be checked by Betanal maxxPro. To avoid crop check, manganese should ideally be applied to the crop first.
Lime Deficiency
Crops suffering from lime deficiency may be checked when sprayed with Betanal maxxPro. Growers should ensure that the lime status of the soil is satisfactory before drilling.
High temperatures
When the temperature is, or is likely to be, above 21C (70F) on the day of spraying, application of Betanal maxxPro should be made after 5 pm otherwise crop check may occur.
Frost
Crops sprayed with Betanal maxxPro and subjected to frost within seven days may be checked such that they may not fully recover.
High Light intensity

Where the crop is already under stress, and Betanal maxxPro is sprayed in conditions of high light intensity, the crop may suffer a check from which it may not fully recover.
Betanal maxxPro
herbicide
7
If crops are subjected to substantial day to night temperature changes shortly before or after spraying, a check may occur from which the crop may not fully recover.
Wind
Strong winds can damage crops by physical buffeting and contingent damage can arise from blown soil particles. When wind damage has occurred, delay application of Betanal maxxPro until the crop has recovered.
insect attack
If the crop is damaged by insects, eg mangel fly, pygmy mangel beetle or flea beetle, Betanal maxxPro may cause a check from which the crop may not fully recover.
storage
Store well away from seeds, fertilisers and animal feeding stuffs, out of direct sunlight in a safe, dry place designated as an agrochemical store.

Biscaya is a neonicotinoid systemic insecticide which provides: control of pea aphids (Acyrthosiphon pisum) in peas and pea midge damage in peas. control of aphids (cabbage aphid Brevicoryne brassicae and peach-potato aphid Myzus persicae) in broccoli/calabrese, Brussels sprout, cabbage and cauliflower. control of the willow carrot aphid (Cavariella aegopodii) in carrot and parsnip control of aphids (e.g. virus vectors such as the peach-potato aphid Myzus persicae and potato aphid Macrosiphum euphorbiae) in potatoes. control of pollen beetles in oilseed rape and mustard. reduction in damage caused by orange wheat blossom midge in wheat.
CRop spECifiC infoRmation

There are various restrictions on the number of applications that can be made of any neonicotinoid product on certain crops. Please refer to the PESTICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY for further details.
application
Apply in a water volume of 200 - 400 Litres of water per hectare according to the crop and pest. Apply as a mEDiUm quality spray (BCPC). All varieties of broccoli/calabrese, Brussels sprout, cabbage, cauliflower, carrot, parsnip, peas, potatoes, wheat, oilseed rape and mustard may be treated.
Biscaya
Biscaya
Broccoli/calabrese, Brussels sprout, cabbage and cauliflower
Apply Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha as aphids start to build up in the crop. On autumn/ winter crops with longer growing periods destined for later harvesting, one or both of the neonicotinoid foliar applications should be targeted at Brevicoryne brassicae and should be applied late in the season when numbers of Myzus persicae are low. Levels of control may be reduced where high, established populations are present. In such circumstances a second application may be required. Biscaya may be used up to 2 times in a programme in alternation with nonneonicotinoid insecticides of a different mode of action. Do not use Biscaya in consecutive sprays. Follow guidelines in PESTICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY below. water Volume: 200 400 L/ha. Use higher water volumes in dense crops.
Combining peas and vining peas

Apply Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha as pea aphids start to build up in the crop. A second application may be applied if aphid pressure remains high. Preliminary data have shown that well-timed applications of Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha can give useful control of pea midge and improvement in pod numbers. Inspect plants at early flowering (flower buds enclosed) and apply the first spray if adult midges are found or according to local warnings. Repeat 7-10 days later. water Volume: 200 400 L/ha.
Carrots and parsnips

Apply Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha as aphids start to build up in the crop. A second application may be applied if aphid pressure remains high. water Volume: 200 400 L/ha.
potatoes
ware Crops Apply Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha when aphids reach threshold levels. Should further applications be required, use a non-neonicotinoid insecticide of a different mode of action. seed crops Apply Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha from crop emergence. Biscaya may be used up to 2 times in a programme in alternation with non-neonicotinoid insecticides of a different mode of action. Do not use Biscaya in consecutive sprays. Use no more than two applications of any neonicotinoid containing product on seed potatoes (see pesticide resistance management strategy). Biscaya will reduce the transmission of potato viruses when used as part of an insecticide programme for virus prevention. water Volume: 200 400 L/ha: use a higher volume on dense crops.

wheat
Apply Biscaya at a rate of 0.4 L/ha during ear emergence as soon a threshold of adult orange wheat blossom midges has been reached. Use pheromone traps or yellow sticky traps to monitor adult activity in crops at risk. Crops at GS55-59 are most susceptible to damage. Consult HGCA literature or a qualified agronomist for additional information on the pest and spray thresholds. Aphids present on the crop at application will also be controlled. water Volume: 200 L/ha.
pEstiCiDE REsistanCE manaGEmEnt stRatEGY

Total reliance on one pesticide will hasten the development of resistance; pesticides of different chemical types or alternative control methods should be included in a planned programme. Alternating insecticides with different modes of action is a recognised anti-resistance strategy and Biscaya should always be used in conjunction with other insecticides of a different mode of action. This includes consideration of sequences involving seed or soil treatments followed by foliar sprays. Brassicas Use no more than two foliar applications of any neonicotinoid insecticide (e.g. acetamiprid, thiacloprid) on any crop. Two foliar applications are permitted regardless of whether a neonicotinoid insecticide has previously been used on the crop as a seed or module treatment. Where a neonicotinoid seed or soil treatment has been used, the first subsequent foliar spray should be with a non-neonicotinoid containing product with a different mode of action. One or both of the neonicotinoid foliar applications should be targeted at Brevicoryne brassicae and should be applied late in the season when numbers of Myzus persicae are low. Alternate with non-neonicotinoid containing products between foliar applications of neonicotinoids. potato Use no more than a single application of any neonicotinoid insecticide on ware potatoes, and no more than two applications of any neonicotinoid insecticide on seed potatoes.
Biscaya
Biscaya
oilseed rape Use no more than one foliar application of any neonicotinoid insecticide on oilseed rape. Growers should consult the IRAG website for further information on the current resistance management strategy for pollen beetle, in particular the use of thiacloprid in areas of high resistance risk, or where a pyrethroid has been used but pollen beetle populations remain above the treatment threshold. Biscaya should always be applied at the full recommended rate of use and in sufficient water volume to achieve the required spray penetration into the crop and uniform coverage necessary for optimal pest control.

Ear Disease Complex

Apply Boogie Xpro soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for control of Fusarium ear blight in wheat and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears.

Apply Boogie Xpro in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later.
REsistAnCE stRAtEGY
Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action against the diseases present have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. No more than two applications of SDH inhibitors must be applied to the same cereal crop. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Boogie Xpro cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Boogie Xpro is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

DiRECtionS foR USE

REStRiCtionS
Do not use Cadou Star on soils with both a percentage of sand above 70% and containing less than 2% organic matter. Do not use Cadou Star on maize crops intended for seed production as safety to seed crops has not been established. Do not treat in windy conditions in order to avoid any risk of drift over other crops. Crops of beet and sunflowers are particularly sensitive to this risk.
WEEDS ContRoLLED
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group (WRAG) and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer. Key aspects of the Cadou Star Resistance Management Strategy are: ALWAYS follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant weeds. Do not use Cadou Star as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYS use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with alternative modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYS monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained, contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Established perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds growing from rootstocks will not be controlled by Cadou Star. Some soil moisture is required for Cadou Star to be activated. Residual control may be reduced under prolonged dry conditions. As for other residual herbicides application to a fine, firm seedbed will optimise efficacy. Efficacy may be reduced where application is made to cloddy seedbeds.
CRoP SPECifiC infoRmAtion

Apply Cadou Star pre-emergence of the maize crop. It is recommended that the product is applied before the maize seeds have germinated. Applications should generally be made within 4 days of sowing. Use at a maximum rate of 0.85 kg of product per hectare. Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer. Apply in 200 to 300 litres of water per hectare as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Lower water volumes of 100 to 200 litres water per hectare may also be used, however these volumes have not been supported by effectiveness or crop safety data. Good even spray coverage of the soil is essential.
Company Advisory information

Good even spray coverage of the soil is most likely to be achieved by use of higher spray volumes (around 200 L/ha) rather than reduced spray volumes.
Only one application of Cadou Star should be made to the crop. Safety to crops grown for seed has not been established.

REstRiCtions & WARninGs

Consult processor before using on crops for processing. Shake well before use. Under certain circumstances the cider apple variety Michelin may exhibit symptoms of leaf scorch following applications of Calypso, particularly when treated around petal-fall. If treating this variety, ensure in particular that trees are not under stress such as nutrient deficiency and avoid using the product in tank mixtures.
PEsts ContRoLLED
Calypso is a chloronicotinyl systemic insecticide for the control of rosy apple aphid (Dysaphis plantaginea) on apples.

Use spray volumes from 500 to 1500 litres of water to give full coverage. Use Calypso at 0.25 0.375 L/ha depending on tree size, with a maximum product dose of no more than 0.375 L/ha in a single dose. When applying Calypso by broadcast air-assisted orchard sprayers, the best available application technique, which minimises off-target drift, should be used to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. For dense canopies and larger trees use the higher volume. It is important to ensure full coverage of the crop and pest for optimum aphid control.

Calypso
Latest time of application
14 days before harvest A follow-up post blossom spray of Calypso may be required; apply from the end of flowering (GS 69) to fruit half final size (GS 75). For post blossom sprays use a higher water volume to aid control by improving coverage and penetration of dense canopies and curled leaves. Effective aphid control in top fruit usually requires several sprays of insecticide per year and Calypso may be used for up to a maximum of two of these sprays. - see Pesticide Resistance Management Strategy below. Where tree height and/or canopy density is reduced, the dose (and water volume) should be adjusted in accordance with an appropriate dose adjustment scheme. Consult your specialist advisor for further information. Further information on the PACE scheme is available from HDC, or see the HDC leaflet (Orchard Spraying Opportunities to reduce rates) available on the PSD website at http://www.pesticides.gov.uk/HDC.pdf.
PEstiCiDE REsistAnCE mAnAGEmEnt stRAtEGY

Total reliance on one pesticide will hasten the development of resistance; pesticides of different chemical types or alternative control measures should be included in a planned programme. Alternating insecticides with different modes of action is a recognised anti-resistance strategy. To further minimise the likelihood of less susceptible pest strains arising, Calypso should always be applied at the full recommended rate of use and in sufficient water volume to achieve the required spray penetration into the crop and uniform coverage necessary for optimal pest control.

Cello is a mixture of triazolinthione, triazole and spiroketoalamine fungicides recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring barley, winter and spring oats, winter wheat and winter rye.
CRoPs
Cello may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring barley, winter and spring oats, winter wheat and winter rye.
RAtE of UsE
Apply Cello at 1.25 litres per hectare in cereals; the maximum total dose per crop is 2.5 litres per hectare.
APPLiCAtion
Water volume
Apply Cello in 100-300 litres water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended.
spray quality
Apply as a mEDiUm spray quality (as defined by BCPC).

In wheat and rye Cello may be applied at any stage before grain milky ripe stage and in barley and oats up to beginning of flowering.

GEnERAL
Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned with water and detergent after use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop, in dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used.

To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Cello at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Cello contains two DMI fungicides. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products.

Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis) Apply Cello at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Cello at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia recondita and P. hordei) Apply Cello at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) Apply Cello at the first signs of disease. Cello controls crown rust in winter and spring oats. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Ear Disease Complex Apply Cello soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for moderate control of Fusarium ear blight and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Through the control of ear blight, Cello effectively reduces the level of the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat grain. However, where Fusarium levels are high, the reduction achieved may not always be sufficient to ensure that DON levels fall below the statutory limit. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Cello in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Cello at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
REsistAnCE stRAtEGY
Repeated application of Cello alone should not be used on the same crop against a high risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Cello cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Cello is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

In soft crops avoid the use of tank-mixtures with HBNs, Atlantis WG + biopower or Pacifica + biopower. In particular, tank-mixtures with EC fungicide formulations as this may result in transitory adverse crop effects.
sulphonyl Ureas (sU)

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Cello is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Cello in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise.

The possible development of diseases resistant to Centaur cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Centaur may not give satisfactory control and no responsibility can be accepted for any loss incurred. Centaur applied to winter wheat or winter oats in the spring at GS 30-33 may, on occasion, cause straw shortening. This effect causes no loss of yield and can be beneficial in a potential lodging situation.
REsistanCE manaGEmEnt
Repeated application of Centaur alone should not be used on the same crop against a high risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action (eg morpholines) have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease.

Diseases Controlled - application timing

Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and S. nodorum) (Winter Wheat) Apply Centaur at the first signs of disease. Where infection may occur following a rainsplash event* apply Centaur as soon as possible afterwards to prevent visible symptoms developing. It is important to protect both the second leaf and flag leaf. Centaur provides prolonged protection from re-infection but a repeat application may be made if necessary. Centaur contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website.
* A rain-splash event is defined as 10 mm or more of rain in up to 3 consecutive rain days i.e. days with 1 mm or more of rain; 5 mm of rain in any one day may be sufficient where stem elongation is incomplete or in short or thin crops.
Yellow Rust (Winter wheat, winter and spring barley) Apply Centaur at the first signs of disease, before 1% of any leaf is infected. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Centaur provides prolonged protection from re-infection. A repeat application may be made if necessary. Brown Rust (Winter wheat, winter and spring barley, rye) Crown Rust (Winter and spring oats) Apply Centaur when rust is first detected. Centaur provides prolonged protection, but a repeat application may be made if necessary. Ear Diseases (Winter wheat) An application of Centaur during full ear emergence (GS 59) gives control of mildew, rusts and Septoria on ears and provides a useful reduction of Cladosporium sooty mould. powdery mildew (Winter wheat, winter and spring barley, winter and spring oats, rye) Apply Centaur at the start of mildew development when not more than 2% infection is present on the lower leaves. Centaur provides prolonged protection from re-infection. A second treatment may be applied where crops are at risk from later attacks. For autumn control of powdery mildew on winter barley drilled before October. On light land apply Centaur when 5% of the surface area of any of the lower leaves is infected. On heavy land only treat if mildew infects the upper leaves.

DiRECtions foR UsE

impoRtant: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Cerone plant growth regulator reduces straw length and gives greater resistance to lodging and aids harvesting of winter and spring varieties of barley and winter varieties of wheat, rye and triticale. The full benefit of Cerone treatment will only be obtained on crops which have received adequate inputs (e.g. fertilizer and fungicides). The best response to Cerone plant growth regulator is obtained when the crop is growing vigorously. Apply Cerone plant growth regulator before lodging has started. It is recommended that only crops grown under conditions of high fertility and, therefore, at risk from lodging, should be treated with Cerone plant growth regulator. Thin crops and particularly those on soils of low fertility are less likely to lodge, and in addition such crops of winter wheat may ripen prematurely.
REstRiCtions
Stress factors reduce crop growth and may also lead to secondary tillering and small grains. Cerone plant growth regulator if used under stress conditions may lead to these effects being more pronounced, particularly on spring barley. Cereals can be susceptible to drought stress. Do not spray when the soil is very dry. Do not use within 10 days of any herbicide or liquid fertilizer treatment. Do not spray crops heavily diseased or suffering from pest damage, nutrient deficiency or herbicide stress. Do not spray during cold weather or periods of night frost. Do not spray where crop is wet or rain is imminent. Avoid overlapping spray bouts. Avoid drift of spray to adjoining crops. Wash sprayer and mixing vessels with plenty of clean water.

Use on winter and spring varieties of barley and on winter varieties of wheat, rye and triticale.
Winter barley
Cerone can be applied to winter barley from the second node detectable stage of crop growth up to and including the first awns just visible stage (GS 32-49). The greatest resistance to lodging is achieved by treatment at the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth (GS 37).
Cerone
Cerone
High Lodging Risk Crops For the greatest resistance to lodging use a sequential treatment of an approved formulation containing chlormequat followed by Cerone. Apply chlormequat according to manufacturers label instructions followed by Cerone at 0.75 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including the first awns just visible stage (GS 37-49). The optimum time for Cerone application is at the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth (GS 37). Where the crop has not received prior treatment with chlormequat apply Cerone at 1.0 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including first awns just visible stage (GS 37-49). Cerone may also be applied from the second node detectable stage of crop growth (GS 32) but the optimum time for Cerone application is at the flag leaf just visible stage (GS 37). Low Lodging Risk Crops Where lodging is not expected to be a severe problem, the crop may be treated with a sequential programme of an approved formulation containing chlormequat followed by a reduced rate of Cerone. Apply chlormequat according to manufacturers label instructions followed by Cerone at 0.5 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including first awns just visible stage (GS 37-49). Where the crop has not received prior treatment with chlormequat apply Cerone at 0.75 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including the first awns just visible stage (GS 37-49). The optimum time for Cerone application is at the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth (GS 37).
For the greatest resistance to lodging use a sequential programme of an approved chlormequat product followed by Cerone. Apply chlormequat according to manufacturers label instructions, followed by Cerone at 0.5 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including the boots swollen stage (GS 37-45). Do not spray crops where the leaf sheaths have split and the ears are visible. Where the crop has not received prior treatment with chlormequat apply Cerone at 0.75 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including the boots swollen stage (GS 37-45). Do not spray crops where the leaf sheaths have split and the ears are visible.
Winter triticale
Cerone may be applied at 1.0 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including the boots swollen stage (GS 37-45). Do not spray crops where the leaf sheaths have split and the ears are visible. The best control of lodging will be given if the crop has received prior treatment with chlormequat at the recommended timing.
Winter rye
Apply Cerone at a maximum of 1.0 L/ha from the flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth up to and including the first awns just visible stage (GS 37-49). Crops of winter rye which have received prior treatment with approved chlormequat products may be treated with Cerone from the flag leaf just visible stage up to and including the first awns just visible stage (GS 37-49).

Winter wheat
spring barley
Apply Cerone at 0.5 L/ha from the second node detectable stage of crop growth up to and including the first awns just visible stage (GS 32-49). Only crops which have been drilled early, have a high yield potential and are likely to suffer severe lodging should be treated with Cerone. Crops suffering from stress or likely to be stressed, for example due to soil conditions, should not be treated (see RESTRICTIONS section above) because undesirable side effects may occur, for example secondary (green) tillers, trapped heads, or shrivelled grains. Do not use on the variety Triumph.
sprayer application
Apply through a conventional field crop sprayer using medium nozzles at a pressure of 2-3 bar. Good spray coverage is essential. Ensure the sprayer is correctly calibrated before use and adjusted to give adequate and even coverage of the top leaves. Spray immediately after mixing. Spray quality: Cerone plant growth regulator should be applied as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Water volume: 200-400 L/ha. Cerone may also be applied in a reduced water volume of 100 litres per hectare as a finE spray (BCPC category) provided suitable spray nozzles are selected for this type of operation.

REstRiCtions
Only the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in tank mixture or in sequence with Chekker: Atlantis WG, Pacifica or Othello. DO NOT apply to crops undersown or due to be undersown with grass, clover or alfalfa. DO NOT roll or harrow within one week of spraying. DO NOT spray crops under stress, suffering drought, waterlogged, grazed, lacking nutrients or if the soil is compacted. Broadcast crops should be sprayed post-emergence after the plants have a well established root system and all other conditions on the label and leaflet are met. DO NOT spray if frost is expected. If the leaves are wet or covered with ice, run off may occur. Store in a cool, dry, safe place designated as an agrochemical store, away from seeds & animal feedingstuffs.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
This product contains amidosulfuron and iodosulfuron-methyl-sodium which are ALS inhibitors, also classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee as Group B. To reduce the risk of developing resistance or where resistance to sulfonylurea herbicides is suspected applications should be made to young, actively growing weeds. For optimum results, apply Chekker during warm weather, when the soil is moist and the weeds actively growing. Dry conditions resulting in moisture stress may reduce effectiveness. Chekker can be used on all soil types.

MS Moderately Susceptible
Kill of weeds with Chekker is slow, particularly under cool, dry conditions. Sometimes, the weeds may only be stunted but they will normally have little or no competitive effect on the crop.

All commercially available varieties of; winter wheat, winter barley, spring wheat, spring barley, rye, triticale and durum wheat. Apply Chekker after the two-leaf stage of the crop up to before first spikelet of inflorescence just visible stage (GS 51). Apply in spring (from 1 February) when the weeds are actively growing. Apply at a rate of use 240g per hectare. For optimal results, use application techniques which ensure good weed coverage and crop penetration. Volume 200-400 litres of water per hectare. Use up to 400 litres of water per hectare where crops are thick or weeds dense. Qualified recommendation: Lower water volumes (100 L/ha) may also be used, however these have not been supported by effectiveness or crop safety data.
spray Quality mEDiUm (BCPC category). Take care to avoid drift onto broad-leaved plants outside the target area or onto ponds, waterways and ditches. Avoid spray overlaps, particularly when applying prior to stem extension of winter and spring barley, as this may result in reduced vigour and yield reductions.

Only one of the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or tank mixture with up to 240 g/ha Chekker: Atlantis WG; Othello or with 180 g/ha Chekker: Pacifica (applied up to 0.4 Kg/ha). These sequences and tank mixtures must only be applied in accordance with label recommendations for every product in the sequence or tank mixture. Aside from those listed above, do not use chekker in any non-approved ALS sequence or tank mixture. Only use permitted sequences and tank mixtures in conjunction with a robust non-ALS inhibitor autumn herbicide programme, this is particularly important where both components are applied in the spring.
REsistAnCE
As part of the Resistance Management Strategy for Chekker, apply Chekker in sequence with autumn applied Atlantis WG or Pacifica for the spring control of common chickweed in order to avoid increased selection of herbicide resistant individuals. The use of cultural methods of control and herbicides with non-ALS modes of action within the cropping season and/or throughout the cropping rotation will help reduce the risk of developing resistance.
foLLoWinG CRoPs
After an application of Chekker there are no restrictions on following cereal crops or crops sown in the spring of the following year. In addition to cereals, winter oilseed rape and winter field beans may be sown in the same year as Chekker is applied and these must be preceded by ploughing or thorough cultivation. A minimum of three months must separate an application of Chekker and the drilling of winter oilseed rape. Where Chekker is applied in sequence or tank mixture with Atlantis WG, Pacifica or Othello, winter wheat, winter barley, spring wheat, spring barley and sugar beet can be sown as following crops in the normal rotation.

sprayer hygiene
It is important that the spray tank, boom, hoses, filters and nozzles are thoroughly washed out to remove all traces of Chekker immediately after spraying and before the sprayer is used on crops other than the cereals recommended on this label. Use either of the following procedures: (a) Bleach cleaning 1. Drain sprayer completely, then wash out tank boom and hoses with clean water. Drain again. 2. Half-fill tank with clean water and add chlorine bleach (i.e. bleach with 10% available chlorine) at a dilution rate of 2.5 litres of bleach per 1,000 litres of water. Complete filling the tank with water. Flush through boom and hoses then leave sprayer for 10 minutes with agitation on. Then drain completely. 3. Remove nozzles and filters and leave to soak in a bleach solution of 250 ml bleach per 10 litres of water whilst tank cleaning is in progress. 4. Flush the tank, boom and hoses with clean water. 5. Inspect tank to confirm no residues are present. Ensure any spray contamination on the outside of the sprayer is removed by washing in clean water. (b) Ammonia based cleaning (e.g. All Clear Extra) Follow manufacturers recommendations for sulfonyl urea herbicides. Do not mix any bleach or chlorinating agent with any ammonia-based cleaning agent as toxic gases may be liberated.

When tank-mixing Pacifica + biopower plus Chekker please note that the maximum rate of Pacifica must not exceed 400 g/ha and the maximum rate of Chekker must not exceed 180 g/ha. All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application of SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

intRoDUCtion
Consento is a fungicide which combines the protectant and translaminar action of fenamidone with the systemic and protectant properties of propamocarb hydrochloride to give protection against late blight of potatoes. Fenamidone also gives protection against early blight. Avoid spraying within 5m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects and other arthropods.
REstRiCtions
Apply Consento only to dry foliage. Do not apply Consento if rainfall or irrigation is imminent. Avoid drift to areas outside those being sprayed having due regard to the prevailing weather conditions and the spray quality being used. PRotECt FRoM FRost. sHAKE WELL BEFoRE UsE.
DisEAsEs ContRoLLED
When used as part of a full programme of correctly timed sprays, Consento gives control of late blight of potatoes and protects crops against early blight (Alternaria). It is essential to commence treatment early in the season because failure to treat blight at this stage can result in severe yield losses. Consento may be used at any stage of the season although within a blight programme it is best targeted at the commencement of spraying. Consento should be applied only as a protectant treatment. Using Consento when late blight has become readily visible (1% leaf area destroyed) is not recommended.
Resistance management
Consento contains fenamidone, a QoI fungicide. Should more than one product containing a QoI fungicide be used in a programme, then these restrictions apply to all QoI containing products. Do not apply more than 6 applications of a QoI containing product to any potato crop. Consento should be used in single or block applications in alternation with fungicides from a different cross-resistance group. The maximum number of consecutive applications is limited to three. To reduce the incidence of resistance developing, Consento should make up no more than half of the intended applications in a programme.
Consento
Consento
In addition to the above conditions, and before application, consult and adhere to the latest FRAG-UK resistance guidance on application of QoI fungicides to potatoes.

All varieties of early, main and seed crop potatoes may be sprayed.
tiMinG
The first spray must be applied as soon as there is a risk of late blight infection, that is when a Blight Infection Period (Smith Period*) has occurred or an official warning has been issued. In the absence of any warning, protectant spraying of Consento should begin just before the crop meets along the row.
2 consecutive days and nights of warm, humid weather are likely to fulfil the requirements of a Blight Infection Period and create a high risk of infection (see below).
Used as part of a late blight spray programme, Consento will give protection from early blight (Alternaria). Dose: 2.0 L/ha Sprays should be repeated at 7 day intervals. Crops are at high risk when active blight is present in the area in dumps or on crops or volunteers and further Blight Infection Periods are recorded (or warnings issued). The risk is especially high when periods of rapid growth coincide with other high risk factors. Irrigated crops and potatoes being grown in certain areas of the country are regularly at high risk. High risk areas are defined as - areas of the country where weather conditions conducive to blight regularly occur during the growing season. - areas of the country associated with early potato production, production under temporary plastic mulches or extensive maincrop production where dumps and volunteers are frequently found. Applications of Consento can be made until the potato haulm begins to senesce. When blight has become readily visible (1% leaf area destroyed), fungicides have little effect on subsequent development. Stop using Consento under these conditions. Consento may be applied at a shorter interval than indicated above should there be an agronomic need as long as all other conditions of use are followed particularly the maximum number of treatments, maximum total dose and the latest timing.

Check that the nozzle tips are clean, undamaged, of the correct type to produce the recommended spray quality and all of the same size. 3. Start filling the sprayer tank with clean water; check that the agitation is operating correctly. Check dose and volume of application. 4. Calculate the area to be sprayed with the tank load and hence the amount of chemical required. Add the required quantity of product to the water in the sprayer whilst the agitator is operating. Mix only sufficient chemical for immediate use. 5. Add water to the required level and continue agitation until spraying is completed. 6. Ensure that the spray bars are set at the correct height to give a good spray cover, and that alternate spray cones or fans meet just above the crop. Even cover with a well-mixed spray is essential for good results. 7. Commence spraying, being careful to maintain the correct pressure and tractor speed. 8.

imPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Corinth is a mixture of a triazolinthione and triazole fungicide recommended for control of a range of diseases on oilseed rape. Avoid spraying within 6m of the field boundary to reduce the effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. PRotECt fRom fRost.
CRoPs
Corinth may be used on all commercial varieties of oilseed rape. Spring oilseed rape (QUALIFIED MINOR USE RECOMMENDATION) Corinth can also be used on varieties of spring oilseed rape, however these have not been supported by crop safety data.
RAtE of UsE
Apply Corinth at 1.0 litre per hectare in oilseed rape. The maximum total dose per crop is:- 2.0 litres per hectare.
APPLiCAtion
Water volume
Apply Corinth in 200-300 litres per hectare water. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended.

Corinth
General
Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned with water and detergent after use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop. In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used.

Phoma Leaf spot/stem Canker Apply Corinth in autumn at the first sign of disease. Repeat application in late autumn/ winter, if disease symptoms reoccur. sclerotinia stem rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum). Apply Corinth at early to full flower
REsistAnCE stRAtEGY
Repeated application of Corinth alone should not be used on the same crop. Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Corinth cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Corinth is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Ensure that applications made to wheat, barley, oats, oilseed rape and mustard are in line with Maximum Number of Treatments and Latest Times of Application sections elsewhere on this label. Sprayers should be tHoRoUGHLY CLEanED before use and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. 200-1500 litres of water per hectare depending on crop and pest. A pressure of 2-3 bar (30-40 psi) is recommended. Apply as a mEDiUm quality spray (as defined by BCPC). Decis is not systemic and it is, therefore, important that the amount of water is sufficient to permit good spray coverage of the foliage, particularly in beans, hops, peas, glasshouse crops and ornamentals.

See other specific restrictions Because of possible sawfly re-infestation, a repeat treatment after blossom period may be needed. Strains of some aphid species are resistant to many aphicides. Where aphids resistant to products containing pyrethroid insecticides occur, Decis is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Repeat treatments are likely to result in lower levels of control. For damson hop aphid, wherever possible use different active ingredients in a programme of treatments. Glasshouse whitefly strains resistant to one or more groups of insecticides are widespread. Where strains resistant to products containing pyrethroid insecticides occur, Decis is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Note: resistant strains of the tobacco whitefly are also known to occur. # Pear suckers resistant to one or more groups of insecticides are widespread. Where strains resistant to products containing pyrethroid insecticides occur, Decis is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Where repeat treatments are necessary use different active ingredients.
mixinG
Prior to mixing EC formulations, such as Decis, it is particularly important to thoroughly wash out the sprayer using a recommended detergent. Solvents in EC formulations can remove pesticides adhering to the tank and other parts of the sprayer. Shake well before use. Add the required quantity immediately at the beginning of filling the spray tank with water. Keep the spray agitation in action and add the required quantity of water. Continue agitation until spraying is completed. After spraying, thoroughly wash out the spray tank. Do not apply this product in tank mixture with a triazole-containing fungicide when bees are likely to be actively foraging in the crop

Strains of some aphid species are resistant to many aphicides. Where aphids resistant to products containing pyrethroid insecticides occur, Decis Protech is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Repeat treatments are likely to result in lower levels of control. For damson hop aphid, wherever possible use different active ingredients in a programme of treatments. Glasshouse whitefly strains resistant to one or more groups of insecticides are widespread. Where strains resistant to products containing pyrethroid insecticides occur, decis Protech is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Note: resistant strains of the tobacco whitefly are also known to occur. # Pear suckers resistant to one or more groups of insecticides are widespread. Where strains resistant to products containing pyrethroid insecticides occur, Decis Protech is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

READ THE LABEL BEFORE USE. USING THIS PRODUCT IN A MANNER THAT IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE LABEL MAY BE AN OFFENCE. FOLLOW THE CODE OF PRACTICE FOR USING PLANT PROTECTION PRODUCTS.
For optimum results when weather conditions are conducive to soil surface slug activity apply Decoy Wetex to the prepared seedbed before drilling the pellets should remain undisturbed on the soil surface for 4-7 days before the next cultivation or drilling. A single treatment will normally clear up an infestation, but where the initial population is very high, or where due to, climatic conditions a subsequent invasion of the pest occurs, further treatment may be necessary pRoviDED that the maximum total dose per season for the appropriate edible crop is not exceeded (Refer to table above) oilseed rape Varieties with low glucosinolate contents are extremely susceptible to slug attack and growers should be especially vigilant for very first signs of slugs or grazing damage. Alternatively, monitoring for slug activity using baited traps should be carried out (see Monitoring Recommendations below). Application of Decoy Wetex must be made immediately slug activity occurs. Monitoring should continue and one further Decoy Wetex treatment may be applied if necessary. Although the level of slug damage control achieved on double low oilseed rape may be comparable to that on single low varieties, the extreme susceptibility of the former may result in higher than expected damage levels after treatment. Leatherjackets Application of Decoy Wetex for the control of slugs and snails will also reduce the leatherjacket population. strawberry seed beetle Apply Decoy Wetex when the adult beetles appear at the time the fruit is forming, usually before strawing down.
(ii) admixture at drilling:

Cereals Application of Decoy Wetex in admixture with seed will protect the seed germ from being eaten and ensure maximum plant emergence. Where an admixture of Decoy Wetex is used, reference should be made to the maximum total dose per season, to ensure this is not exceeded in any subsequent broadcast application(s). The rate of Decoy Wetex should be varied with the seed drilling rate to ensure that 7.5 kg/ha Decoy Wetex is not exceeded. The table below gives the amount of Decoy Wetex required per 50 kg cereal seed to obtain the correct dosage per hectare at different seeding rates:
Decoy Wetex dosage rate: 7.5 kg/ha

Thoroughly mix the pellets with the seed when filling the drill hopper, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the seed. Cereal seed must only be admixed with Decoy Wetex immediately prior to drilling. Rye-grass To help ensure maximum plant emergence 7.5 kg/ha Decoy Wetex may be used in admixture with rye-grass seed at drilling. Ensure the pellets are mixed evenly with the seed when filling the drill hopper. Rye-grass seed admixed with Decoy Wetex may be stored, but the admixture must be drilled within 12 months of mixing. Rye-grass seed (admixture) maximum individual dose (kg product/ha) is 7.5 kg and maximum total dose (kg product/ha) is 7.5 kg.
Monitoring recommendations
For further information on slug trapping and damage risk assessment please refer to HGCA Topic Sheets No.84 (winter wheat) and 85 (winter oilseed rape), available from the HGCA website [www.hgca.com]. To establish the need for pellet application on winter wheat or winter oilseed rape, monitor for slug activity using baited traps. Where bait traps are used, use a foodstuff attractive to slugs e.g. chicken layers mash which has proven to be particularly effective. Do not use slug pellets as bait in traps in these crops since they are a potential hazard to wildlife and pets. Put slug traps out before cultivation, when the soil is visibly moist and the weather is mild (5-25C). Traps consist of a cover about 25cm across, with a small heap (20 ml or 2 heaped teaspoonfuls) of chickens layers mash (not slug pellets) beneath. In each field, nine traps (13 in fields larger than 20 ha) should be set out in a W pattern. Also concentrate on areas known to suffer damage. Leave traps overnight and examine early the following morning. FoR WintER WHEat A catch of 4 or more slugs per trap indicates a possible risk, where soil or weather conditions favour slug activity. FoR WintER oiLsEED RapE A catch of 4 or more slugs in standing cereals, or 1 or more in cereal stubble, if other conditions were met, would also indicate possible risk of damage.

iMpoRtant: This leaflet is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions on this leaflet and on the label should be read carefully in order to obtain successful results from the use of this product.
REstRiCtions
Late application of pellets to broad-leaved plants may result in lodging of the pellets in foliage. Care should be taken to avoid this when making applications to edible crops. Do not allow pellets to lodge in edible crops. When surface broadcasting, avoid application within 6m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. No single method of slug control is likely to be completely successful and a combination of both cultural and chemical control is advisable.
CRop spECifiC infoRMation

(i) Edible Crops
Draza Forte pellets may be used in edible crops as shown in the following table. Only those edible crops listed may be treated. Recommended Dose: As shown under Maximum individual dose in the table below. Use at rates below the maximum individual dose may be effective in situations of low slug pressure/risk, especially if used as part of a programmed approach for slug control.

There may be some reduction in efficacy at this recommended rate. CaUtion: No single method of slug control is likely to be completely successful. Where damage is anticipated, a combination of both cultural and chemical control is to be preferred.
(ii) non-edible Crops and Bare soil Recommended Dose:

Draza forte pellets may be applied at a maximum individual dose of 3.75 kg/ha to any non-edible crop or to bare soil, as required. Rye-grass seed admixture use 3.75 kg/ha at sowing.

other specific restriction: The maximum number of treatments for use on barley, forage maize, oats, rye, triticale and wheat must not exceed 2 per crop as a broadcast application or 1 per crop admixture and 1 per crop as a broadcast application.
appLiCation
Draza forte may be applied:
(i) as a broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible or listed edible crop.
Broadcast Draza forte pellets with a suitable granule or fertilizer applicator. The best results are obtained against slug, snails and leatherjackets when they are feeding near the soil surface, normally during mild, damp conditions. slugs and snails Apply Draza forte close to the time of drilling/planting when the pests or their damage are seen, or as indicated by monitoring for pest activity. For optimum results when weather conditions are conducive to soil surface slug activity apply Draza forte to the prepared seedbed before drilling the pellets should remain undisturbed on the soil surface for 4-7 days before the next cultivation or drilling. A single treatment will normally clear up an infestation, but where the initial population is very high, or where due to, climatic conditions a subsequent invasion of the pest occurs, further treatment may be necessary pRoviDED that the maximum total dose per season for the appropriate edible crop is not exceeded (Refer to table above). oilseed rape Varieties with low glucosinolate contents are extremely susceptible to slug attack and growers should be especially vigilant for very first signs of slugs or grazing damage. Alternatively, monitoring for slug activity using baited traps should be carried out (see Monitoring Recommendations below). Application of Draza forte must be made immediately slug activity occurs. Monitoring should continue and one further Draza forte treatment may be applied if necessary. Although the level of slug damage control achieved on double low oilseed rape may be comparable to that on single low varieties, the extreme susceptibility of the former may result in higher than expected damage levels after treatment. Leatherjackets Application of Draza forte for the control of slugs and snails will also reduce the leatherjacket population. strawberry seed beetle Apply Draza forte when the adult beetles appear at the time the fruit is forming, usually before strawing down.
(ii) admixture at drilling:

Cereals Application of Draza forte in admixture with seed will protect the seed germ from being eaten and ensure maximum plant emergence. Where an admixture of Draza forte is used, reference should be made to the maximum total dose per season, to ensure this is not exceeded in any subsequent broadcast application(s).
Draza forte
Draza forte
The rate of Draza forte should be varied with the seed drilling rate to ensure that 3.75 kg/ha Draza forte is not exceeded. The table below gives the amount of Draza forte required per 50 kg cereal seed to obtain the correct dosage per hectare at different seeding rates:
Draza forte dosage rate: 3.75 kg /ha

Cereal seeding rate kg /ha 188 157 127 kg Draza forte/50 kg seed 1.0 1.2 1.5
Thoroughly mix the pellets with the seed when filling the drill hopper, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the seed. Cereal seed must only be admixed with Draza forte immediately prior to drilling. Rye-grass To help ensure maximum plant emergence 3.75 kg/ha Draza forte may be used in admixture with rye-grass seed at drilling. Ensure the pellets are mixed evenly with the seed when filling the drill hopper. Rye-grass seed admixed with Draza forte may be stored, but the admixture must be drilled within 12 months of mixing.
For further information on slug trapping and damage risk assessment please refer to HGCA Topic Sheets No.84 (winter wheat) and 85 (winter oilseed rape), available from the HGCA website [www.hgca.com]. To establish the need for pellet application on winter wheat or winter oilseed rape, monitor for slug activity using baited traps. Where bait traps are used, use a foodstuff attractive to slugs e.g. chicken layers mash which has proven to be particularly effective. Do not use slug pellets as bait in traps in these crops since they are a potential hazard to wildlife and pets. Put slug traps out before cultivation, when the soil is visibly moist and the weather is mild (5-25C). Traps consist of a cover about 25cm across, with a small heap (20 ml or 2 heaped teaspoonfuls) of chickens layers mash (not slug pellets) beneath. In each field, nine traps (13 in fields larger than 20 ha) should be set out in a W pattern. Also concentrate on areas known to suffer damage. Leave traps overnight and examine early the following morning.

DiRECtions foR UsE

REstRiCtions
Do not apply to crops undersown or due to be undersown with clover or alfalfa. Do not roll or harrow within one week of spraying. Do not spray crops under stress, suffering drought, waterlogged, grazed, lacking nutrients or if the soil is compacted. Broadcast crops should be sprayed post-emergence after the plants have a well established root system and all other conditions on the label and leaflet are met. Do not spray if frost is expected. If the leaves are wet or covered with ice, run off may occur. Store in a cool, dry, safe place designated as an agrochemical store.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
For optimum results, apply Eagle during warm weather, when the soil is moist and the weeds actively growing. Dry conditions resulting in moisture stress may reduce effectiveness. Eagle can be used on all soil types. Eagle controls cleavers from emergence through to flower bud. If present at application, charlock (up to flower bud), shepherds-purse (up to flower bud) and field forget-menot (up to 6 leaves) will also be controlled. Kill of weeds with Eagle is slow, particularly under cool, dry conditions. Sometimes, the weeds may only be stunted but they will normally have little or no competitive effect on the crop.

Apply in spring (from 1 February) when the weeds are actively growing. Apply at a rate of 40g per hectare.
Cereals
All commercially available varieties of: Winter and spring wheat, winter and spring barley, durum wheat, oats, rye and triticale. Apply Eagle from the two-leaf stage of the crop up to and including first awns visible (GS 49).
Eagle
Eagle
Linseed
All commercially available winter and spring sown varieties of linseed. Apply Eagle from the first pair of leaves unfolded up to before the flower buds are visible. For optimal results, use application techniques which ensure good weed coverage and crop penetration. Use a spray volume of 100-400 litres of water per hectare, using up to 400 litres of water per hectare where crops are thick or weeds dense. Use spray pressure of 2.5 - 3.0 bar and spray quality at finE or mEDiUm (BCPC category). Avoid damage by drift onto broad-leaved plants outside the target area or onto ponds, waterways and ditches.
foLLoWinG CRops anD CRop faiLURE

After an application of Eagle there are no restrictions on following cereal crops or spring sown crops in the normal rotation. In addition to cereals only winter oilseed rape, mustard, turnip, winter field bean and vetches may be sown in the same year as Eagle is applied and these must be preceded by ploughing or thorough cultivation. In the event of crop failure, it is possible to drill a spring cereal after a 15 day delay. Ploughing is not necessary.
miXinG
Half fill the spray tank with clean water, start agitation and add the required quantity of Eagle directly to the tank. Top up the tank to the required volume. Continue agitation whilst spraying. When tank-mixing, always add Eagle to the spray tank first and fully disperse before adding other products. Do not allow Eagle granules to come into contact with the undiluted concentrate of any other product.
sprayer hygiene
It is important that the spray tank, boom, hoses, filters and nozzles are thoroughly washed out to remove all traces of Eagle immediately after spraying and before the sprayer is used on crops other than cereals, grassland or potatoes.

Use either of the following procedures:
(a) Bleach cleaning

1. Drain sprayer completely, then wash out tank boom and hoses with clean water. Drain again. 2. Half-fill tank with clean water and add chlorine bleach (i.e. bleach with 10% available chlorine) at a dilution rate of 2.5 litres of bleach per 1,000 litres of water. Complete filling the tank with water. Flush through boom and hoses then leave sprayer for 10 minutes with agitation on. Then drain completely. 3. Remove nozzles and filters and leave to soak in a bleach solution of 250 ml bleach per 10 litres of water whilst tank cleaning is in progress. 4. Flush the tank, boom and hoses with clean water. Ensure any spray contamination on the outside of the sprayer is removed by washing in clean water.
(b) ammonia-based cleaning (e.g. all ClearExtra)

Follow manufacturers recommendations. Do not miX any bleach or chlorinating agent with any ammonia-based cleaning agent as toxic gases may be liberated.
CompatiBiLtY
Eagle may be applied as a tank-mix with a range of products. Full manufacturers instructions must be followed for each tank-mix component. Contact Bayer CropScience for compatibility information on specific tank-mixes. for the very latest tank-mix information please refer to: www.bayercropscience.co.uk Please note that physical compatibilities may not be approved tank-mixes. The tests do not check for any adverse crop phytotoxicity or for the biological efficacy of the individual components when applied in a tank mix. Bayer CropScience gives no warranty and accepts no liability in respect of physical compatibilities; therefore use is at growers own risk.
impoRtant: Tank mixtures or sequences should only be applied within the label recommendations of every product in the tank mixture or sequence.

# * Physically compatible with constant agitation. Dose of Moddus must not exceed 0.2 L NO OIL. All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlororthalonil +/- Proline 275 or Fandango is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application of SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

rEStriCtionS anD WarninGS

This product is dangerous to honeybees and bumblebees. It must not be applied to plants in flower or plants that are being actively visited by honeybees or bumblebees. The best available application technique, which minimises off-target drift should be used to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. Consult processor before use on crops grown for processing, or for use in cider production. Shake well before use.
pEStS ControLLED
Envidor is a ketoenol insecticide with a mode of action as a lipid synthesis inhibitor. Fruit tree red spider mite (Panonychus ulmi) Two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) Apple and pear rust mites (Aculus schlechtendali, Epitrimerus pyri) Pear sucker (Cacopsylla pyricola) Mussel scale (Lepidosaphes ulmi) For optimum efficacy application early in the pest development cycle is necessary. Young larval stages are most susceptible.
Limited data indicates that Envidor can provide good control of rust mites. Applications should be timed to coincide with the beginning of conditions that favour the pest (typically shortly after flowering) to ensure that eggs and young larval stages are the principal targets. Alternatively, application in summer against a mixed population of eggs, larvae and adult mites can be carried out but efficacy may be reduced. Limited data indicates that Envidor is effective against mussel scales when applied during the mobile crawler phase of the pest in late spring/early summer (typically late May). Field experience has indicated that about 1-2 weeks after blossom is the optimal application timing on apples.

Where tree height and or canopy density is reduced, the dose (and water volume) should be adjusted in accordance with an appropriate dose adjustment scheme, for example PACE. Consult your specialist advisor for further information. Further information on the PACE scheme is available from HDC, or see the HDC leaflet available also at PSDs website. http://www.pesticides.gov.uk/uploadedfiles/HDC_TreeFruitDosingleaflet.pdf It is important, particularly when spraying post-blossom, to achieve full penetration of the leaf canopy and uniform coverage of the foliage and blossoms or fruitlets.

To control fruit tree red spider mite (Panonychus ulmi). In orchards where populations of fruit tree red spider mite winter eggs are above threshold numbers and where populations of predatory mites are inadequate apply the product in spring when 10% of the mite larvae have emerged from their winter eggs, or apply immediately after flowering should this coincide with the flowering period. Alternatively, application in summer against a mixed population of summer eggs, larvae and adult mites can be carried out but efficacy may be reduced (see statement regarding optimal efficacy in PESTS CONTROLLED section).

pEStiCiDE rESiStanCE manaGEmEnt StratEGY

Total reliance on one pesticide will hasten the development of resistance; pesticides of different chemical types or alternative control measures should be included in a planned programme. The compatibility of Envidor with Integrated Pest Management programmes has not been established and safety cannot be assumed. Hazardous to non-target arthropods (predatory mites) if applied repeatedly. Avoid unnecessary exposure. Alternating insecticides with different modes of action is a recognised anti-resistance strategy. To further minimise the likelihood of less susceptible pest strains arising, Envidor should always be applied at the full recommended rate of use and in sufficient water volume to achieve the required spray penetration into the crop and uniform coverage necessary for optimal pest control. No more than 1 application of a lipid syntheis inhibitor (e.g. spirodiclofen, spiromesifen) should be made on apples and pears. Monitoring should be conducted to detect early signs of resistance. If signs of reduced efficacy become evident, follow-up treatments should not be carried out with an active ingredient of the same chemical class.
mixinG anD SpraYinG

Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Envidor to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation, and fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. On emptying the container, rinse container thoroughly by using an integrated pressure rinsing device or manually rinsing three times. Add washings to sprayer at time of filling and dispose of container safely.
Water volumes:
500 litres/ha up to 1,500 litres/ha. Water volume can be adjusted to suit height of crop. It is important to ensure full coverage of the crop and pest for optimum control. For control of pear sucker water volumes of at least 800 L/ha are recommended.

Leaf and ear diseases

Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Fandango at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Fandango contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Erysiphe graminis) When used for the control of other diseases, Fandango will also give control of wheat powdery mildew. Strains of wheat and barley powdery mildew resistant to Qol fungicides are common in the UK. Where specific control of wheat mildew is required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures, including products with recommendations for control of mildew that contain different active substances used in mixture or sequence. yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Fandango at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia recondita and P. hordei) Apply Fandango at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective.

Where disease pressure remains high the application may be repeated. Ear Disease Complex (Fusarium and Microdochium species) Apply Fandango in wheat soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS 59-69). Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Fandango in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Fandango at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
mAnAGEmEnt stRAtEGy to minimisE tHE LikELiHooD oF REsistAnCE

Apply fungicides according to manufacturers recommendations for the target disease (or complex) at the specific crop growth stage indicated. Effective disease management is a critical parameter in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. Fandango is a mixture of two fungicides with different modes of action, a strobilurin and a triazolinthione. Fandango contains fluoxastrobin, a member of the Qol cross-resistance group. Fandango should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential. Use Fandango as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two foliar applications of QoI-containing products to any cereal crop. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Use of fungicides which have different modes of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. A programme of sprays should not include more than 2 sprays of Fandango or any other product that contains a strobilurin fungicide.

important
In areas where wheat powdery mildew strains resistant to strobilurin fungicides have been reported, or where wheat powdery mildew is a common problem, always use strobilurin fungicide in mixture with a suitable dose of a powdery mildew fungicide from a different cross-resistance group. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Fandango cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Fandango is unlikely to give satisfactory control.
FACtoRs AFFECtinG CRoP sAFEty

Occasionally, after the application of Fandango, some transient leaf chlorosis on wheat or barley may occur, but these symptoms have not been shown to adversely affect yield responses accruing from the benefits of disease control.

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Fandango is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Fandango. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Fandango + Moddus + chlormequat.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Fandango in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Fandango are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.

DiRECtions FoR UsE

REstRiCtions
Do not treat undersown cereals or those due to be undersown. Avoid treating crops suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, grazing, pests or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Adverse crop effect (paling, reduction in vigour) may occur when there is very wet weather before and after application, particularly on crops grown on light free draining soils or where soils become waterlogged. These effects are typically transitory in nature and will have no adverse effect on crop yield in most cases. Do not use on waterlogged soils or soils prone to water logging. Do not use on sands or very light soils (ADAS 85 classification) or very stony or gravelly soils, as there is a risk of crop damage. Shallow drilled crops must only be treated post-emergence. Do not treat broadcast crops as uncovered seed may be damaged. Do not soil incorporate. Avoid spraying during periods of prolonged or severe frosts as sharp or severe frosts following application may cause transitory discoloration or scorch from which the crop will normally recover. Do not use on soils containing more than 10% organic matter. Do not disturb the soil after application (e.g. by harrowing or rolling).
REsistAnCE
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.
Firebird
Firebird
Key aspects of the Firebird Resistance Management Strategy are: ALWAYs follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant weeds. Do not use Firebird as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYs use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with alternative modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYs monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Levels of control provided can be variable. In particular strongly established volunteers of oilseed rape (particularly those beyond the 2 leaf stage) may survive and require a follow-up treatment with an appropriate post-emergence herbicide. Useful levels of cleaver control can be achieved, but a follow-up treatment with a specific cleaver herbicide may be required in some situations.

Established perennial grasses and broad leaved weeds growing from rootstocks will not be controlled by Firebird. Speed of activity can be slow and is dependent on temperature and growing conditions. Activity can be slow under cool conditions and the final level of weed control may take some time to appear. Some soil moisture is required for Firebird to be activated. Moist soil at and after application is required to give the best results. Best results will be obtained if rain falls within 7 days of application. Residual control may be reduced under prolonged dry conditions.
CRoP sPECiFiC inFoRmAtion

Good weed control depends on burying any trash or straw before or during seedbed preparation. Seedbeds must have a firm, fine tilth. Loose or cloddy seed beds must be consolidated otherwise crop damage may result due to inadequate seed cover. For pre-emergence treatments, seed should be covered with a minimum of 32mm of settled soil. Use at a rate of 0.3 litres of product/ha. Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer. Apply in 200-400 L/ha as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Use the higher volume where crop or weed foliage is dense. A spray pressure of at least 2 bars is advised. Good, even spray coverage of soil and weeds is essential. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. To prevent damage, care must be taken to avoid drift onto neighbouring crops. Winter wheat (all varieties) Apply pre or post-emergence up to and including second tiller stage (GS22) and before 31st December in the year of planting. Winter barley (all varieties) Apply pre or post-emergence up to and including third tiller stage (GS23) and before 31st December in the year of planting.

Plough or cultivate to at least 15 cm before planting following crops of oilseed rape, field beans and edible brassicae. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Plough to at least 15cm before planting peas, sugar beet, carrots and onions. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Wheat, barley and potatoes can be drilled without any special cultivations. In the event of crop failure, for any reason, plough to at least 15cm and sow only wheat, barley and potatoes. An interval of 12 weeks should elapse between treatment and subsequent sowing of spring wheat and spring barley. Where Firebird and other products containing diflufenican are applied to successive cereal crops, levels of diflufenican (DFF) will build up in the soil. Ploughing or cultivation, with complete inversion of the furrow, must take place before planting any following noncereal crop, except potatoes. Even where ploughing or cultivation is carried out there may still be a risk of damage to following crops of onions, leek and related species, or clover. As a precaution users who rent out their land to growers of these crops should not use DFF-containing products in successive years before renting out the land.

APPLICATIoN TImING
Septoria Leaf blotch and Glume Blotch ( Septoria tritici and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Firefly 155 at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Firefly 155 contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Blumaria graminis)* When used for the control of other diseases, Firefly 155 will also give control of wheat powdery mildew. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Firefly 155 at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia recondita) Apply Firefly 155 at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Firefly 155 in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later.
Strains of powdery mildew resistant to Qol fungicides are common in the UK. Where specific control measures are required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures including using products with recommendations for control of these diseases with different active substances used in mixture or sequence.
mANAGEmENT STRATEGY To mINImISE THE LIkELIHooD oF RESISTANCE

Apply fungicides according to manufacturers recommendations for the target disease (or complex) at the specific crop growth stage indicated. Effective disease management is a critical parameter in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. Firefly 155 is a mixture of two fungicides with different modes of action, a strobilurin and a triazolinthione. Firefly 155 contains fluoxastrobin, a member of the Qol cross-resistance group. Firefly 155 should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential.
Firefly
155
Firefly
Use Firefly 155 as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two foliar applications of QoI-containing products to any cereal crop. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Use of fungicides which have different modes of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. A programme of sprays should not include more than 2 sprays of Firefly 155 or any other product that contains a strobilurin fungicide. CAUTIoN: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Firefly 155 cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Firefly 155 is unlikely to give satisfactory control.
155
FACToRS AFFECTING CRoP SAFETY

Occasionally, after the application of Firefly 155, some transient leaf chlorosis on wheat may occur, but these symptoms have not been shown to adversely affect yield responses accruing from the benefits of disease control.

In soft crops avoid the use of tank-mixtures with HBNs, Atlantis WG + biopower or Pacifica + biopower. In particular, tank mixtures with EC fungicide formulations as this may result in transitory adverse crop effects.
Sulphonyl Ureas (SU)

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Firefly 155 is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Firefly 155 in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise.

impoRtant: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Folicur is recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring sown cereals and oilseed rape also field beans, cabbages, carrots, horseradish, leeks, linseed, parsnips, swedes and turnips. For best disease control and yield benefit Folicur should be applied at an early stage of disease development, before infection spreads to new crop growth.
Repeated application of Folicur alone should not be used on the same crop against a high risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action (e.g. morpholines) have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. The possible development of diseases resistant to Folicur cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Folicur is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Folicur may be applied at any stage before the grain milky ripe stage.

Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and S. nodorum) (Wheat) To protect the flag leaf and ear from Septoria tritici and S. nodorum apply Folicur from flag leaf emergence (GS 37) until ear fully emerged (GS 59). Earlier application may be necessary where there is a high risk of S. tritici and Folicur should be applied when the disease is active, but before it is visible on the upper leaves. Applications made once foliar symptoms of S. tritici are already present on the upper leaves will be less effective since these symptoms only develop several weeks after initial crop infection has taken place. Folicur contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website.

Folicur
Yellow Rust and Brown Rust (Wheat, barley and rye) Apply Folicur at the first signs of disease. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if reinfection occurs. Ear Disease Complex (Wheat) Folicur applied soon after ear emergence can give a good reduction of Fusarium ear blight and a reduction of sooty moulds (Alternaria and Cladosporium) and can result in cleaner, brighter ears. powdery mildew (Wheat, barley and rye) Folicur should be applied at first signs of disease. When treating established mildew or particularly disease susceptible varieties, improved control can be achieved by adding 0.5 L/ha Corbel in tank-mixture. When disease pressure remains high application may be repeated if necessary see Resistance Management. powdery mildew (Oats) Folicur should be applied at first signs of disease. When disease pressure remains high application may be repeated if necessary - but see Resistance Management. Rhynchosporium (leaf blotch) (Barley and rye) Apply Folicur at the onset of disease. For effective control of moderate to severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. On disease susceptible varieties in high risk situations tank-mixing Folicur with other products may improve control (contact Bayer CropScience for details). net Blotch (Barley) Apply Folicur at the very first signs of disease in spring/early summer. A second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development. When disease develops after flag leaf emergence a single application of Folicur will generally provide good protection. Crown Rust (Oats) Folicur applied to control mildew on oats will also reduce crown rust infections occurring around this time. Alternatively, apply Folicur on first appearance of crown rust. Occasionally, after the application of Folicur, some transient leaf speckling on wheat or leaf reddening/scorch on oats may occur, but these symptoms have not been shown to adversely affect yield responses accruing from the benefits of disease control.

Folicur may be used on all varieties of winter or spring sown oilseed rape. maximum individual dose: maximum total dose per crop: 1.0 litre per hectare. 2.5 litres per hectare.
Folicur should be applied in 100-400 L/ha of water, using the higher volume in dense crops. Folicur may be applied at any time up to and including most seeds are green stage.
DisEasEs ContRoLLED
Light Leaf spot autumn/winter Light leaf spot should be prevented from developing early in the life of the crop and good protection from subsequent disease development will be provided by an application of 0.5 L/ha Folicur in autumn/winter (usually late October to early December). Follow up spray(s) of 1.0 L/ha may be required in the spring/summer depending on disease development. spring/summer If an autumn treatment of Folicur has not been made and disease develops in the crop over winter, an early spring (March) application of 1.0 L/ha may be made from the onset of stem extension. The application of 1.0 L/ha of Folicur either pre- or post-flowering will generally control late development of light leaf spot on pods and leaves. Phoma Leaf spot/stem Canker Leaf spot can be found from October onwards and best control of stem canker may be expected from an autumn/early winter application of 0.5L/ha Folicur applied at first signs of disease, followed by 0.5 - 1.0 L/ha Folicur in late winter/early spring. Folicur programmes applied against light leaf spot will also give a good reduction of leaf spot/stem canker. Dark Leaf/pod spot (Alternaria spp) Treatment with 1.0 L/ha Folicur should begin at the onset of disease i.e. when black pin-head spots first appear on the pods. Post-flowering sprays of Folicur made for light leaf spot control may also control Alternaria dark leaf/pod spot. Sclerotinia stem Rot 1.0 L/ha of Folicur applied at early to full flower will give some reduction of Sclerotinia stem rot. Ringspot (Mycosphaerella brassicicola) Spring/summer applications of Folicur made for the control of light leaf spot may also give some reduction of this disease.

Folicur should be applied in 200-600 L/ha of water, using the higher volume in dense crops. Folicur must not be applied less than 35 days before harvest.

Chocolate spot and Bean Rust Folicur applied at first signs of disease from the early flower stage, and repeated 3-4 weeks later, will give good control of both diseases.
Cabbages
Folicur should be applied in 200-600 L/ha of water, using the higher volume in dense crops. Folicur must not be applied less than 21 days before harvest. Consult processor before using Folicur.

Alternaria spp, Light Leaf spot, powdery mildew & Ringspot A programme of 3 sprays of Folicur at 0.5 L/ha at 21-28 day intervals will give good control of all four diseases. Best results will be obtained when spraying begins at first signs of disease, but Folicur should not be applied before the beginning of cabbage heart formation. Where ringspot has become established the first spray may be applied at up to 1.0 L/ha and can improve activity; subsequent applications may be required to maintain control but the maximum total dose of 2.25 L/ha per crop must not be exceeded.
Carrots, parsnips & horseradish

maximum individual dose: maximum total dose per crop: Apply in 400-600 litres of water/ha. Good cover of the foliage is vital; use the higher volume in dense or well grown crops. Folicur must not be applied less than 21 days before harvest. 1.0 litre per hectare. 3.0 litres per hectare.

Alternaria spp (Carrots and horseradish) To reduce Alternaria infection on the leaves begin a programme of Folicur sprays with an application in early/mid August, or when first signs of disease appear on the foliage after crop GS 15 if earlier. Up to 2 further applications may be made at 3-week intervals. powdery mildew (Carrots, parsnips) Folicur gives a useful reduction of powdery mildew if applied when the disease is first seen in the crop. Up to two follow-up applications may be made if necessary, at 14-21 day intervals. Sclerotinia (Carrots) A programme of Folicur sprays applied against Alternaria spp can also provide a useful reduction in Sclerotinia infection.

Do not use Folicur + strobilurin + Moddus + chlormequat on Spring Barley.
adjuvants
In soft crops avoid the use of tank-mixtures with HBNs or Atlantis WG + biopower. In particular, tank-mixtures with EC fungicide formulations as this may result in transitory adverse crop effects.

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Folicur is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Folicur + strobilurin. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Folicur + strobilurin + Moddus + chlormequat.

It is important to achieve good, even coverage on the seed to obtain reliable disease control. Agitate the product by recirculating through the pump for 30 minutes before application. For further advice on re-dispersing Galmano, please contact the local Seed Treatment Engineer of Bayer CropScience Ltd. Check drill calibration before drilling seed treated with Galmano. Delayed emergence may result when Galmano treated seed is drilled into heavy or poorly drained soils which then become wet or waterlogged for any significant period. Once emerged, crops should grow away normally with no lasting effects. Galmano may be used with winter crops of wheat. Do not apply Galmano to cracked, split or sprouted seed. Store treated seed in a cool dry place until drilling. Treated seed should be drilled soon after treatment and should not be kept from one season to the next. Treated seed must be labelled with the appropriate precautions using printed sack, labels and bag tags. Galmano seed treatment will provide early control of leaf spot and yellow rust but crops will require foliar treatment for control of later infection.

GEnERaL inFoRMation
Weed Control
Harvest controls annual and perennial, grass and broad-leaved weeds mainly by contact action after uptake by the leaf and other aerial parts of the plant. The speed of activity is influenced by weather and plant growth conditions. Activity is quickest under warm moist conditions when the target weeds are actively growing. Under optimum growing conditions, initial effects are seen as yellowing within 2-3 days and kill is usually complete within 10 - 14 days. Although speed of activity may be affected during less favourable growing conditions (cold/dry), efficacy is unaltered.
Desiccation
Harvest can also be used to desiccate the crops listed below. Application is normally made at the onset of senescence.
REstRiCtions
Crops
On crops for processing, consult your processor before use.
Weather
Do not spray if rain is imminent or likely within 6 hours of application and Do not apply to wet foliage if run off is likely to occur. Do not apply Harvest for potato desiccation under exceptional wet weather conditions (more than 40 mm rain within 5 days prior to desiccation) or under water saturated soil conditions.
soils
Harvest is degraded after contact with the soil. Crops can normally be drilled or planted immediately after spraying with Harvest or sprayed post-drilling but pre-emergence. However, on sands, very light or immature peat soils, spraying should be carried out at least 3 days before drilling or planting and no less than 3 days before expected crop emergence.
Cultivations
Cultivations may begin 4 hours after application of Harvest. For the best control of creeping perennial grasses, cultivations should be delayed as long as possible. Harvest will continue to act on weeds after cultivation giving thorough, lasting control. Do not use on broadcast crops.
Harvest
Harvest
WEEDs ContRoLLED
Harvest will control grass and broad-leaved weeds.
annual weeds
Annual grasses and broad-leaved weeds are killed by a single application. Harvest has no residual soil activity and will control only weeds which have emerged at the time of application.
Perennial weeds
Perennial non-rhizomatous grasses (e.g. perennial rye-grass, rough meadow-grass) and broad-leaved weeds are usually well controlled with a single application. Common couch, docks, nettles and other deep-rooted perennials may require two applications of Harvest for control during the growing season.
CRoP DEsiCCation/HaRVEst aiD

Harvest can be used to desiccate potatoes, winter and spring oilseed rape, dry harvested peas (not seed), winter and spring field beans and linseed to facilitate ease of harvesting. Potatoes (not seed) should be treated only after the onset of natural senescence. Weeds present at the time of application will also be well controlled. Crops destined for use as seed should only be treated with Harvest following the removal of haulm with a flail. The following is the definition of natural senescence in potatoes as published in the potato growth stage key by Jefferies and Lawson, (reference Ann. Appl. Biol. (1991), 119, 387-389). During the growth of the potato plant the lower leaves may turn yellow and fall from the plant, but this is a consequence of shading by the upper leaves rather than senescence of the plant. The onset of natural senescence is marked by the leaves in the upper third of the haulm beginning to show signs of yellowing. (Yellowing can also be caused by other factors so make sure the potatoes are past their peak of growth and that for example temporary drought or insect damage is not the causal agent). If potatoes are treated before the onset of natural senescence damage to the tubers may occur.

non-cropped land - including fallows and uncropped headlands. Grassland destruction - permanent grassland and rotational grass. Pre-cropping situations - stubble, cultivated land and before/after drilling or planting but before crop emergence of potatoes, oilseed rape, combining peas (excluding seed crop), field bean, linseed and all other edible or non-edible crops. During or after set-aside - green cover on land temporarily removed from production.

REstRiCtions
Do not use Hatra on crops undersown with grasses, clover or other legumes or any other broad-leaved crop. Only the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or in tank mixture with Hatra, Chekker, Sekator, Eagle or Pursuit. Hatra must not be applied to any crop suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, pest or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Because some non-target crops are sensitive to Hatra, extreme care is required to avoid drift onto plants outside the target area, or onto ponds, waterways or ditches. Do not apply Hatra when rain is imminent. Do not apply during periods of frosty weather. Store in a safe dry place designated as an agrochemical store.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
This product contains mesosulfuron-methyl and iodosulfuron-methyl which are ALS inhibitors, also classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee as Group B. Use only as part of a resistance management strategy that includes cultural methods of control and does not use ALS inhibitors as the sole chemical method of grassweed control. Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.

Hatra
Hatra
Hatra is readily translocated within the target weed, inhibiting growth within hours of application. The actual time taken for herbicidal symptoms to appear and death varies between weed species, timing of application and weather conditions. In some cases symptoms may not be apparent for up to 4 weeks. Optimum grass-weed control will be obtained when all grass-weeds are emerged at spraying. Weeds germinating after application will not be controlled. Due to the potential for yield loss without prior signs of crop phytotoxicity, avoid use of Hatra to control light infestations of grass-weeds. As Hatra is active primarily via foliar uptake good spray coverage of the target weed is essential for optimal efficacy. For optimal activity, apply when weather conditions promote active weed growth. Hatra controls emerged weeds on all soil types. Hatra has a moderate residual life in soil under normal conditions. As residual activity is important for optimal activity, avoid application under very dry conditions on to very dry soil. Residual efficacy will be enhanced where seedbeds are fine and moist. High soil temperatures and cloddy seedbeds may reduce the residual efficacy of Hatra. The presence of enhanced metabolism herbicide resistant populations of Italian ryegrass may lead to unacceptable levels of control. To reduce the risk of developing resistance or where resistance to sulfonylurea herbicides is suspected, applications should be made to young, actively growing weeds. Key aspects of the Hatra resistance management strategy are: aLWays follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant grass and broad-leaved weeds. Do not use Hatra as a stand-alone treatment for black-grass, rye-grass or common chickweed. Use only in tank mixture or in sequence with herbicides with non-ALS modes of action. iDEaLLy apply Hatra as early as possible and before GS 31 of grass-weeds. Do not use Hatra as the sole means of grass-weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. aLWays use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with non-ALS modes of action throughout the cropping rotation.

aLWays monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Winter Wheat
Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer at a rate of 1.2 L/ha. Apply in 100-300 L/ha as a finE to mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Use application techniques which ensure good weed coverage and crop penetration, using flat fan nozzles. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. Always use Hatra in mixture with authorised adjuvant biopower (ADJ: 0454 or 0617) at a rate of 1.0 L/ha. Only one application of Hatra should be made to the crop. For use on all varieties of winter wheat. Apply from the 2 leaf stage (GS12) of the crop up to flag leaf ligule just visible (GS39).
sEQUEnCEs & tanK miXtUREs

Only one of the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or in tank-mixture with Hatra: Chekker, Sekator, Eagle or Pursuit and only if used in conjunction with a robust non-ALS inhibitor autumn herbicide programme, this is particularly important where both components are applied in the spring. These sequences and tank-mixtures must only be applied in accordance with label recommendations for every product in the sequence or tank-mixture. Aside from those listed above, do not use in sequence or tank-mixture with any other ALS inhibitors, such as sulfonylureas. As part of the Herbicide Resistance Management Strategy for Hatra, do not apply Chekker or Sekator in sequence with Hatra for the control of common chickweed in order to avoid increased selection for herbicide resistant individuals. Do not tank mix with chlorpyrifos. Allow at least 14 days before or after chlorpyrifos treatments.

Only winter wheat, winter barley or winter oilseed rape may be sown in the year of harvest to succeed a winter wheat crop treated with Hatra. Spring wheat, spring barley, spring oilseed rape and sugar beet may be drilled in the spring following harvest of the Hatra treated winter wheat crop. Plough prior to planting crops of oilseed rape, otherwise crop damage may occur. In the event of crop failure for any reason, sow only winter wheat in the same cropping season as an application of Hatra.

Helix contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis) Apply Helix at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Helix at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia hordei and P. recondita) Apply Helix at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) Apply Helix at the first signs of disease. Helix controls crown rust in winter and spring oats. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis) Apply Helix at the first signs of disease in spring or early summer. Where disease pressure remains high the application may be repeated. Ear Disease Complex Apply Helix soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS 59-69). Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Helix in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Helix at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Helix cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Helix is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Adjuvants

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Helix is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Helix + strobilurin. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Helix + strobilurin + Moddus + chlormequat.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Helix in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Helix are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.

Because some non-target crops are sensitive to Horus, extreme care is required to avoid drift onto plants outside the target area, or onto ponds, waterways or ditches. Do not apply Horus when rain is imminent. Do not apply during periods of frosty weather. Store in a safe dry place designated as an agrochemical store.
WEEDs ContRoLLED
This product contains mesosulfuron-methyl and iodosulfuron-methyl which are ALS inhibitors, also classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee as Group B. Use only as part of a resistance management strategy that includes cultural methods of control and does not use ALS inhibitors as the sole chemical method of grassweed control. Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.

Horus
Horus is readily translocated within the target weed, inhibiting growth within hours of application. The actual time taken for herbicidal symptoms to appear and death varies between weed species, timing of application and weather conditions. In some cases symptoms may not be apparent for up to 4 weeks. Optimum grass weed control will be obtained when all grass weeds are emerged at spraying. Weeds germinating after application will not be controlled. Due to the potential for yield loss without prior signs of crop phytotoxicity, avoid use of Horus to control light infestations of grass weeds. As Horus is active primarily via foliar uptake good spray coverage of the target weed is essential for optimal efficacy. For optimal activity, apply when weather conditions promote active weed growth. Horus controls emerged weeds on all soil types. Horus has a moderate residual life in soil under normal conditions. As residual activity is important for optimal activity, avoid application under very dry conditions on to very dry soil. Residual efficacy will be enhanced where seedbeds are fine and moist. High soil temperatures and cloddy seedbeds may reduce the residual efficacy of Horus. The presence of enhanced metabolism herbicide resistant populations of Italian ryegrass may lead to unacceptable levels of control. To reduce the risk of developing resistance or where resistance to sulfonylurea herbicides is suspected, applications should be made to young, actively growing weeds. Key aspects of the Horus resistance management strategy are: aLWays follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant grass and broad-leaved weeds. Do not use Horus as a stand-alone treatment for black-grass, rye-grass or common chickweed. Use only in tank mixture or in sequence with herbicides with non-ALS modes of action. iDEaLLy apply Horus as early as possible and before GS 31 of grass weeds. Do not use Horus as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. aLWays use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with non-ALS modes of action throughout the cropping rotation.

aLWays monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Winter Wheat
Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer at a rate of 1.2 L/ha. Apply in 100-300 L/ha as a finE to mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Use application techniques which ensure good weed coverage and crop penetration, using flat fan nozzles. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. Always use Horus in mixture with authorised adjuvant biopower (ADJ: 0454 or 0617) at a rate of 1.0 L/ha. Only one application of Horus should be made to the crop. For use on all varieties of winter wheat. Apply from the 2 leaf stage (GS12) of the crop up to flag leaf ligule just visible (GS39).
sEQUEnCEs & tanK miXtUREs

Only one of the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or in tank mixture with Horus: Chekker, Sekator, Eagle or Pursuit and only if used in conjunction with a robust non-ALS inhibitor autumn herbicide programme, this is particularly important where both components are applied in the spring. These sequences and tank-mixtures must only be applied in accordance with label recommendations for every product in the sequence or tank-mixture. Aside from those listed above, do not use in sequence or tank-mixture with any other ALS inhibitors, such as sulfonylureas. As part of the Herbicide Resistance Management Strategy for Horus, do not apply Chekker or Sekator in sequence with Horus for the control of common chickweed in order to avoid increased selection for herbicide resistant individuals. Do not tank mix with chlorpyrifos. Allow at least 14 days before or after chlorpyrifos treatments.

Only winter wheat, winter barley or winter oilseed rape may be sown in the year of harvest to succeed a winter wheat crop treated with Horus. Spring wheat, spring barley, spring oilseed rape and sugar beet may be drilled in the spring following harvest of the Horus treated winter wheat crop. Plough prior to planting crops of oilseed rape, otherwise crop damage may occur. In the event of crop failure for any reason, sow only winter wheat in the same cropping season as an application of Horus.

REstRiCtions
Late applications of pellets to broad-leaved plants may result in lodging of the pellets in foliage. Care should be taken to avoid this when making applications to edible crops. Do not allow pellets to lodge in edible crops. When surface broadcasting avoid applications within 6m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. No single method of slug control is likely to be completely successful and a combination of both cultural and chemical control is advisable.

(i) Edible Crops
Huron pellets may be used in edible crops as shown in the following table. Only those edible crops listed may be treated. Recommended Dose: As shown under Maximum individual dose in the table below. Rates below the maximum individual dose may be effective in situations of low slug pressure/risk, especially if used as part of a programmed approach for slug control.

(ii) non-edible crops and bare soil

Huron pellets may be applied at 5.0 kg/ha to any non-edible crop or to bare soil, as required. Rye-grass seed admixtures use 5.0 kg/ha at sowing.
appLiCation
Huron may be applied as a broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible or listed edible crop, or in an admixture with cereal or rye-grass seed at drilling - see below. Broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible crop and certain edible crops. Broadcast Huron pellets with a suitable granule or fertilizer applicator. The best results are obtained against slugs, snails and leatherjackets when they are feeding near the soil surface, normally during mild, damp conditions. Apply Huron close to the time of drilling/planting when the pests or their damage are seen, or as indicated by monitoring for pest activity.

READ THE LABEL BEFORE USE. USING THIS PRODUCT IN A MANNER THAT IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE LABEL MAY BE AN OFFENCE. FOLLOW THE CODE OF PRACTICE FOR USING PLANT PROTECTION PRODUCTS
For optimum results when weather conditions are conducive to soil surface slug activity apply Huron to the prepared seedbed before drilling - the pellets should remain undisturbed on the soil surface for 4-7 days before the next cultivation, or drilling. A single treatment will normally clear up an infestation, but where the initial population is very high, or where due to climatic conditions a subsequent invasion of the pest occurs, further treatment may be necessary provided that the maximum number of treatments for the appropriate edible crop is not exceeded. (Refer to table above). oilseed rape Varieties with low glucosinolate contents are extremely susceptible to slug attack and growers should be especially vigilant for very first signs of slugs or grazing damage. Alternatively, monitoring for slug activity using baited traps should be carried out (see Monitoring Recommendations below). Application of Huron must be made immediately slug activity occurs. Monitoring should continue and one further Huron treatment may be applied if necessary. Although the level of slug damage control achieved on double low oilseed rape may be comparable to that on single low varieties, the extreme susceptibility of the former may result in higher than expected damage levels after treatment. Leatherjackets Application of Huron for the control of slugs and snails will also reduce the leatherjacket population. strawberry seed beetle Apply Huron when the adult beetles appear at the time the fruit is forming, usually before strawing down.
(iii) admixture at drilling

Cereals notE: Where an admixture of Huron with cereal seed is used only one broadcast application of Huron may be made to a cereal crop. Application of Huron in admixture with seed will protect the seed germ from being eaten and ensure maximum plant emergence. The rate of Huron should be varied with the seed drilling rate to ensure that 5 kg/ha Huron is not exceeded. The table below gives the amount of Huron required per 50 kg cereal seed to obtain the correct dosage per hectare at different seeding rates:
Huron dosage rate: 5 kg/ha

Cereal seeding rate kg/ha 188 157 127 kg Huron/50 kg seed 1.3 1.6 2.0
Huron
Huron
Thoroughly mix the pellets with the seed when filling the drill hopper, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the seed. Cereal seed must only be admixed with Huron immediately prior to drilling. Rye-grass To help ensure maximum plant emergence 5 kg/ha Huron may be used in admixture with rye-grass seed at drilling. Ensure the pellets are mixed evenly with the seed when filling the drill hopper. Rye-grass seed admixed with Huron may be stored, but the admixture must be drilled within 12 months of mixing.
For further information on slug trapping and damage risk assessment please refer to HGCA Topic Sheets No.84 (winter wheat) and 85 (winter oilseed rape), available from the HGCA website [www.hgca.com]. To establish the need for pellet application on winter wheat or winter oilseed rape, monitor for slug activity using baited traps. Where bait traps are used, use a foodstuff attractive to slugs e.g. chicken layers mash which has proven to be particularly effective. Do not use slug pellets as bait in traps in these crops since they are a potential hazard to wildlife and pets.

Put slug traps out before cultivation, when the soil is visibly moist and the weather is mild (5-25C). Traps consist of a cover about 25cm across, with a small heap (20 ml or 2 heaped teaspoonfuls) of chickens layers mash (not slug pellets) beneath. In each field, nine traps (13 in fields larger than 20 ha) should be set out in a W pattern. Also concentrate on areas known to suffer damage. Leave traps overnight and examine early the following morning.

Infinito may be used on all varieties of potato and crops grown for seed.
DIsEasEs ContRoLLED
When used as part of a full blight protection programme of correctly timed sprays, Infinito gives control of late blight of potatoes (Phytophthora infestans). Infinito will protect tubers from the risk of late blight infection after harvest and reduce tuber blight incidence when used as part of a full blight protection programme.
To reduce the incidence of resistance developing, Infinito should be used in single or block applications in alternation with fungicides from a different cross-resistance group. The maximum number of consecutive applications should be limited to three.
tImInG anD DosE

Applications must be made preventively as part of a blight control programme with regard to Blight Infection Periods or local blight warnings. In the absence of any warnings, applications should commence when the crop meets along the row. Apply Infinito at 1.2 to 1.6 L/ha on a 7-10 day spray interval, depending on disease pressure. As disease pressure and the risk of late blight infection increases, the dose should be increased and the interval shortened. Irrigated crops should be treated as high risk. Infinito should be applied as a protectant treatment. Do not apply as a curative treatment when blight is present in the crop. When blight has become readily visible (1% leaf area destroyed), fungicides have little effect on subsequent development. Stop using Infinito under these conditions.

*Jaunt will provide moderate control of these diseases

Eyespot (Tapesia spp.) Spray in the spring at the first sign of disease, from when the leaf sheaths begin to become erect until the 2nd node is detectable (GS 30-32). Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Leptosphaeria nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Jaunt at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Jaunt contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website.

Powdery mildew (Erisiphe graminis) When used for the control of other diseases, Jaunt will also give control of powdery mildew in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye. Strains of wheat and barley powdery mildew resistant to Qol fungicides are common in the UK. Where specific control of wheat mildew is required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures, including products with recommendations for control of mildew that contain different active substances used in mixture or sequence. Apply Jaunt at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Jaunt at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia hordei and P. recondita) Apply Jaunt at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Ear Disease Complex Apply Jaunt soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for moderate control of Fusarium Ear Blight (excluding Microdochium nivale) in wheat. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Jaunt gives high levels of Rhynchosporium control. Apply Jaunt in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Jaunt at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
REsistAnCE
Jaunt contains fluoxastrobin and trifloxystrobin, members of the Qol cross-resistance group. Jaunt should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential. It should not be used where disease is already established. Use Jaunt as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two foliar applications of Qol containing products to any cereal crop.

Limiting the number of sprays is an important factor in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Appropriate disease risk assessment or decision support systems must be used when deciding whether to treat with Jaunt. Strains of wheat and barley powdery mildew resistant to QoIs are common in the UK. The possible development of resistance to Jaunt cannot be predicted. Should it occur Jaunt may not give satisfactory control and no responsibility can be accepted for any loss incurred.

Jaunt may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring barley, wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye. Apply Jaunt at 1.0 litres per hectare in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and 0.8 litres per hectare in winter and spring barley. The maximum total dose per crop is: 2.0 litres per hectare in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and 1.6 litre per hectare in winter and spring barley. Apply Jaunt in 100-300 litres per hectare water. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended. Apply as a mEDiUm spray quality (as defined by BCPC). Jaunt may be applied at any stage before grain milky ripe stage in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and up to beginning of anthesis (GS 61) in winter and spring barley.
miXinG AnD sPRAYinG

Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Jaunt to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned before use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop, In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used. Thoroughly wash equipment with water and detergent after use.

Before using any of the mixtures shown above, first check the manufacturers latest recommendations for Moddus.

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Jaunt is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Jaunt. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Jaunt + Moddus + chlormequat.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Jaunt in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Jaunt are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.

REstRiCtions
Late applications of pellets to broad-leaved plants may result in lodging of the pellets in foliage. Care should be taken to avoid this when making applications to edible crops. Do not allow pellets to lodge in edible crops. When surface broadcasting avoid applications within 6 m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. No single method of slug control is likely to be completely successful and a combination of both cultural and chemical control is advisable.

(i) Edible Crops
Karan pellets may be used in edible crops as shown in the following table. Only those edible crops listed may be treated. Recommended Dose: As shown under Maximum individual dose in the table below. Rates below the maximum individual dose may be effective in situations of low slug pressure/risk, especially if used as part of a programmed approach for slug control.

Karan may be applied as a broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible or listed edible crop, or in an admixture with cereal or rye-grass seed at drilling - see below. Broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible crop and certain edible crops. Broadcast Karan pellets with a suitable granule or fertilizer applicator. The best results are obtained against slugs, snails and leatherjackets when they are feeding near the soil surface, normally during mild, damp conditions. Apply Karan close to the time of drilling/planting when the pests or their damage are seen, or as indicated by monitoring for pest activity.

READ THE LABEL BEFORE USE. USING THIS PRODUCT IN A MANNER THAT IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE LABEL MAY BE AN OFFENCE. FOLLOW THE CODE OF PRACTICE FOR USING PLANT PROTECTION PRODUCTS
For optimum results when weather conditions are conducive to soil surface slug activity apply Karan to the prepared seedbed before drilling - the pellets should remain undisturbed on the soil surface for 4-7 days before the next cultivation, or drilling. A single treatment will normally clear up an infestation, but where the initial population is very high, or where due to climatic conditions a subsequent invasion of the pest occurs, further treatment may be necessary provided that the maximum number of treatments for the appropriate edible crop is not exceeded. (Refer to table above). oilseed rape Varieties with low glucosinolate contents are extremely susceptible to slug attack and growers should be especially vigilant for very first signs of slugs or grazing damage. Alternatively, monitoring for slug activity using baited traps should be carried out (see Monitoring Recommendations below). Application of Karan must be made immediately slug activity occurs. Monitoring should continue and one further Karan treatment may be applied if necessary. Although the level of slug damage control achieved on double low oilseed rape may be comparable to that on single low varieties, the extreme susceptibility of the former may result in higher than expected damage levels after treatment. Leatherjackets Application of Karan for the control of slugs and snails will also reduce the leatherjacket population. strawberry seed beetle Apply Karan when the adult beetles appear at the time the fruit is forming, usually before strawing down.

Cereals notE: Where an admixture of Karan with cereal seed is used only one broadcast application of Karan may be made to a cereal crop. Application of Karan in admixture with seed will protect the seed germ from being eaten and ensure maximum plant emergence. The rate of Karan should be varied with the seed drilling rate to ensure that 5 kg/ha Karan is not exceeded. The table below gives the amount of Karan required per 50 kg cereal seed to obtain the correct dosage per hectare at different seeding rates:

Thoroughly mix the pellets with the seed when filling the drill hopper, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the seed. Cereal seed must only be admixed with Karan immediately prior to drilling. Rye-grass To help ensure maximum plant emergence 5 kg/ha Karan may be used in admixture with rye-grass seed at drilling. Ensure the pellets are mixed evenly with the seed when filling the drill hopper. Rye-grass seed admixed with Karan may be stored, but the admixture must be drilled within 12 months of mixing.

Put slug traps out before cultivation, when the soil is visibly moist and the weather is mild (5-25C). Traps consist of a cover about 25cm across, with a small heap (20 ml or 2 heaped teaspoonfuls) of chickens layers mash (NOT slug pellets) beneath. In each field, nine traps (13 in fields larger than 20 ha) should be set out in a W pattern. Also concentrate on areas known to suffer damage. Leave traps overnight and examine early the following morning.

Water volume
Apply Kestrel in 100-300 litres water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control maybe compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended.

APPLiCAtion timinG
Cereals
Eyespot (Oculimacula spp.) Spray in the spring at the first sign of disease, from when the leaf sheaths begin to become erect until the 2nd node is detectable (GS 30-32). septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Kestrel at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Kestrel contains two DMI fungicides. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis) Apply Kestrel at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated.
Kestrel
Kestrel
yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Kestrel at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia triticina and P hordei) Apply Kestrel at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) Apply Kestrel at the first signs of disease. Kestrel controls crown rust in winter and spring oats. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis) Apply Kestrel at the first signs of disease in spring or early summer. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Ear Disease Complex Apply Kestrel soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for moderate control of Fusarium ear blight in wheat and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Through the control of ear blight, Kestrel effectively reduces the level of the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat grain. However, where Fusarium levels are high, the reduction achieved may not always be sufficient to ensure that DON levels fall below the statutory limit. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Kestrel in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Kestrel at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
oilseed rape
Light Leaf spot Apply Kestrel in autumn/winter (usually late October to early December) protectively. Follow up spray(s) may be required in early spring from the onset of stem elongation, depending on disease development. Phoma Leaf spot/stem Canker Apply Kestrel in autumn at the first sign of disease. Repeat application in late autumn/ winter, if disease symptoms reoccur. sclerotinia stem rot (Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum) Apply Kestrel at early to full flower.

REsistAnCE stRAtEGy
Repeated application of Kestrel alone should not be used on the same crop against a high risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action (e.g. morpholines) have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. Kestrel contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Kestrel cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Kestrel is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Adjuvants
In soft crops avoid the use of tank-mixtures with HBNs, Atlantis + biopower or Pacifica + biopower. In particular, tank mixtures with EC fungicide formulations as this may result in transitory adverse crop effects.

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Kestrel is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Kestrel in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Kestrel are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.

REstRiCtions
Do not treat undersown cereals or those due to be undersown. Avoid treating crops suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, grazing, pests or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Adverse crop effect (paling, reduction in vigour) may occur when there is very wet weather before and after application, particularly on crops grown on light free draining soils or where soils become waterlogged. These effects are typically transitory in nature and will have no adverse effect on crop yield in most cases. DO NOT use on waterlogged soils or soils prone to waterlogging. DO NOT use on sands or very light soils (ADAS 85 classification) or very stony or gravelly soils, as there is a risk of crop damage. Shallow drilled crops must only be treated post-emergence. DO NOT treat broadcast crops as uncovered seed may be damaged. DO NOT soil incorporate. Avoid spraying during periods of prolonged or severe frosts as sharp or severe frosts following application may cause transitory discoloration or scorch from which the crop will normally recover. DO NOT use on soils containing more than 10% organic matter. DO NOT disturb the soil after application (e.g. by harrowing or rolling).
WEEDs ContRoLLED
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.
Liberator
Liberator
Key aspects of the Liberator Resistance Management Strategy are: ALWAYs follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant weeds. Do not use Liberator as a stand-alone treatment for black-grass control. Use only in tank-mix or sequence with effective herbicides with alternative modes of action. Do not use Liberator as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYs use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with alternative modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYs monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Established perennial grasses and broad leaved weeds growing from rootstocks will not be controlled by Liberator. Speed of activity can be slow and is dependent on temperature and growing conditions. Activity can be slow under cool conditions and the final level of weed control may take some time to appear. Some soil moisture is required for Liberator to be activated. Moist soil at and after application is required to give the best results. Best results will be obtained if rain falls within 7 days of application. Residual control may be reduced under prolonged dry conditions.

Good weed control depends on burying any trash or straw before or during seedbed preparation. Seedbeds must have a firm, fine tilth. Loose or cloddy seed beds must be consolidated otherwise crop damage may result due to inadequate seed cover. For pre-emergence treatments, seed should be covered with a minimum of 32mm of settled soil. Use at a rate of 0.6 litres of product/ha. Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer. Apply in 200-400 L/ha as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Use the higher volume where crop or weed foliage is dense. A spray pressure of at least 2 bars is advised. Good, even spray coverage of soil and weeds is essential. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. To prevent damage, care must be taken to avoid drift onto neighbouring crops. Only one application of Liberator should be made to the crop. Winter wheat (all varieties) Apply pre or post-emergence up to and including second tiller stage (GS22) and before 31st December in the year of planting. Winter barley (all varieties) Apply pre or post-emergence up to and including third tiller stage (GS23) and before 31st December in the year of planting.

Plough or cultivate to at least 15cm before planting following crops of oilseed rape, field beans and edible brassicae. Ensure through soil mixing before planting. Plough to at least 15cm before planting peas, sugar beet, carrots and onions. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Wheat, barley and potatoes can be drilled without any special cultivations. In the event of crop failure, for any reason, plough to at least 15cm and sow only wheat, barley and potatoes. An interval of 12 weeks should elapse between treatment and subsequent sowing of spring wheat and spring barley. Where Liberator and other products containing diflufenican are applied to successive cereal crops, levels of diflufenican (DFF) will build up in the soil. Ploughing or cultivation, with complete inversion of the furrow, must take place before planting any following non-cereal crop, except potatoes. Even where ploughing or cultivation is carried out there may still be a risk of damage to following crops of onions, leek and related species, or clover. As a precaution users who rent out their land to growers of these crops should not use DFF-containing products in successive years before renting out the land.

Spray Maestro in the spring at the first sign of disease, from when the leaf sheaths begin to become erect until the 2nd node is detectable (GS 30-32).
Leaf and ear diseases

Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Maestro at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Maestro contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery Mildew (Erysiphe graminis) When used for the control of other diseases, Maestro will also give control of wheat powdery mildew. Strains of wheat and barley powdery mildew resistant to Qol fungicides are common in the UK. Where specific control of wheat mildew is required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures, including products with recommendations for control of mildew that contain different active substances used in mixture or sequence. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Maestro at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia recondita and P. hordei) Apply Maestro at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective.

Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) Apply Maestro at the first signs of disease. Maestro controls crown rust in winter and spring oats. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis) Apply Maestro at the first signs of disease in spring or early summer. Where disease pressure remains high the application may be repeated. Ear Disease Complex (Fusarium and Microdochium species) Apply Maestro in wheat soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS 59-69). Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Maestro in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Maestro at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
MAnAGEMEnt stRAtEGY to MiniMisE tHE LikELiHooD of REsistAnCE

Apply fungicides according to manufacturers recommendations for the target disease (or complex) at the specific crop growth stage indicated. Effective disease management is a critical parameter in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. Maestro is a mixture of two fungicides with different modes of action, a strobilurin and a triazolinthione. Maestro contains fluoxastrobin, a member of the Qol cross-resistance group. Maestro should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential. Use Maestro as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two foliar applications of QoI-containing products to any cereal crop. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Use of fungicides which have different modes of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. A programme of sprays should not include more than 2 sprays of Maestro or any other product that contains a strobilurin fungicide.

important
In areas where wheat powdery mildew strains resistant to strobilurin fungicides have been reported, or where wheat powdery mildew is a common problem, always use strobilurin fungicide in mixture with a suitable dose of a powdery mildew fungicide from a different cross-resistance group. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Maestro cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Maestro is unlikely to give satisfactory control.
fACtoRs AffECtinG CRoP sAfEtY

Occasionally, after the application of Maestro, some transient leaf chlorosis on wheat or barley may occur, but these symptoms have not been shown to adversely affect yield responses accruing from the benefits of disease control.

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Maestro is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Mobius may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, rye, triticale and winter and spring barley. Apply Mobius at 1.0 litres per hectare in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and 0.75 litres per hectare in barley. The maximum total dose per crop is: 2.0 litres per hectare per crop in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and 1.5 litres per hectare per crop in barley. Apply Mobius in 100-300 litres of water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended. Apply as a MEDiUM spray quality (as defined by BCPC).

Mobius may be applied at any stage before grain milky ripe stage (GS 71) in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and up to beginning of anthesis (GS 61) in barley.

Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Mobius to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned before use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop, in dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used. Spray equipment should be thoroughly cleaned with water and detergent after use.

REsistAnCE
Mobius contains trifloxystrobin, a member of the Qol cross resistance group. Mobius should be used preventatively or as early as possible in the disease cycle and should not be relied upon for its curative potential. It should not be used where disease is already established. Use Mobius as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two foliar applications of Qol containing products to any cereal crop. Strains of barley powdery mildew resistant to QoIs are common in the UK. Limiting the number of sprays is an important factor in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Appropriate disease risk assessment or decision support systems must be used when deciding whether to treat with Mobius.

appLiCation
1.25 Litres per 100 kilograms seed. Modesto must only be used in conjunction with Bayer CropScience approved seed treatment application equipment by following the procedures given in the operating instructions. aLWaYs follow the operating instructions. Modesto should be evenly applied using a Bayer CropScience recommended seed treatment machine which has been carefully calibrated to ensure the correct dose rate is applied. Use the product undiluted. WaRninG: containers greater than 20 Litres capacity should be handled only with mechanical assistance. Ensure that Modesto is homogeneous before use. Where necessary, the product should be fully re-dispersed using a re-circulating pump or mechanical agitator. After use the product application equipment should be thoroughly cleaned using clean water. For further details please contact the local Seed Treatment Engineer of Bayer CropScience Limited. Treated seed should be allowed to dry before being packaged - the subsequent application of talc or other drying powders (1-2 kg per 100 kg seed) can assist the drying process of treated seed. Modesto seed treatment should not be used on seed with more than 9% moisture content, on sprouted seed or on cracked, split or otherwise damaged seed. Seed treated with Modesto must be drilled (not broadcast) and kept in a cool dry draughtfree place until use.
follow-up spray treatments

Modesto will reduce damage caused by early attacks of adult cabbage stem flea beetle and other pests. However, when pest activity is heavy and prolonged, it may be necessary to use a follow-up spray treatment. In such situations crops treated with Modesto should be monitored and a suitable foliar treatment used if necessary.

storage of treated seed
Treated seed should be stored in cool, dry conditions before being drilled. It is recommended that Modesto treated seed should be sown within 18 months of seed treatment application.
Drilling
adaquate seed drilling equipment shall be used to ensure a high degree of incorporation in soil, minimisation of spillage and minimisation of dust emission. Seed should be drilled to a depth of 20-30 mm into a well prepared seedbed. When drilling, follow good agricultural practice and ensure that the seed is well covered and that no seed is left on the soil surface. If seed is present on the soil surface, or if spills have occurred, then, if conditions are appropriate, the field should be harrowed then rolled to ensure good incorporation. Adverse seedbed conditions such as very dry, fluffy, cloddy or capped seedbeds, waterlogging, drilling too deep or too shallow, the use of seed with a low germination capacity/vigour and residual herbicides, can reduce the field emergence of oilseed rape. This may be accentuated by Modesto.

application
2.0 kg of Monceren DS per tonne of seed tubers (3.5 oz per cwt). Seed tubers should be free from soil deposits at treatment - see also Seed Quality below. Monceren DS is applied to seed tubers during the planting process. Whichever application technique is chosen, it is essential to obtain an even distribution of the product on the tubers for optimum efficacy. The action of the potato planter achieves this very efficiently provided Monceren DS is initially distributed to some extent within the hopper load of tubers. A number of approaches are available:
Monceren DS
Monceren DS
Hopper application
(i). Measure the quantity of Monceren DS required to treat a hopper load of seed tubers. One quarter fill the hopper with seed tubers, sprinkle over the tubers one third of the required quantity of Monceren DS, add a further quarter of the seed tubers and sprinkle a further third of the Monceren DS dust over the tubers, and so on in layers until the hopper is completely filled with seed tubers. Depending on the size and shape of the hopper, the number of layers required may be varied, provided even coverage of Monceren DS on the tubers is obtained as they are planted. Cover the hopper at the end of the filling process. (ii). on-planter applicator: Monceren DS may be applied directly onto the tubers using powder metering units fitted to the planter hopper (e.g. Team Sprayers applicator). Powder dispenser manufacturers should be consulted as to the suitability of individual machines for use with Monceren DS and the appropriate machine setting to ensure the correct application rate relative to tuber size is achieved. This method of application reduces risk of operator exposure. These applicators may not be suitable for all automated planters.
Bulk Box application

Before tipping the seed tubers into the planter hopper Monceren DS may be applied either by scattering the total amount required to treat the bulk load of seed tubers over the surface of the tubers in the full container, or by using the sandwich technique (described above under Hopper Application). notE: this method of application can result in some staining of the bulk box inside surfaces - consequently, ware tubers should not be stored or supplied to packers in such stained boxes.
Chitting trays
The appropriate amount of Monceren DS can be sprinkled evenly over seed tubers in chitting trays before loading into the planter.

Rain
If seed tubers become damp from light rain, the distribution of Monceren DS on the tubers at planting should not be affected. If, however, a rain shower interrupts planting, the tubers in the hopper should be covered in accordance with normal practice.
Dust
Potato planting is a dusty operation, particularly in windy weather. The use of Monceren DS may add to this problem and operators must wear a dust mask (conforming to EN 149 FFP2 or EN 149 FFP3) when handling the dust formulation, including applying the dust to the potatoes, filling the hopper and when riding on the planter.
SEED QUaLitY
Growers are advised to carefully check seed tuber health before applying Monceren DS. Potato seed tubers to be treated with seed treatments, including Monceren DS, should be of good quality and vigour (i.e. free from conditions such as bacterial rots, physical damage, virus infection, etc.). Crop establishment may be impaired where seed is affected by the conditions above irrespective of any subsequent seed treatment application. It is Good Agricultural Practice to allow seed tubers coming out of cold store to achieve ambient temperature before planting in to cold and / or wet seed beds.

pEsts ContRoLLED
Movento is a ketoenol systemic insecticide which works by inhibition of lipid biosynthesis to control the sucking pests listed below: Mealy cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae Peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Blackcurrant-lettuce aphid, Nasonovia ribis-nigri Lettuce root aphid, Pemphigus bursarius Brassica whitefly, Aleyrodes proletella Due to the mode of action, rapid knockdown of pests should not be expected. Obvious control usually occurs after 3-7 days and is dependent upon pest stage, with youngest larvae being most susceptible and adults least susceptible. For optimum control, application should be made as soon as pests appear in the crop, so that population build up is prevented through targeting the very young larval stages as they are produced. Through its two-way systemicity, the active ingredient spirotetramat is translocated to growing points and is able to reach hidden aphids in heart leaves and on roots. However, it is important to note that there is little movement from new leaves to older leaves, so good spray cover on older leaves will be particularly important.

application
Apply in a water volume of 300 - 600 Litres of water per hectare according to crop density.
spray quality
Apply as a MEDiUM quality spray (BCPC). All varieties of Brussels sprouts, broccoli/calabrese, cabbage, cauliflower, collards, kale and outdoor and protected lettuce may be treated. Apply Movento at a rate of 0.5 L/ha as aphids or whitefly start to build up in the crop. Movento may be used up to a maximum of two applications.
pEstiCiDE REsistanCE ManaGEMEnt stRatEGY

Total reliance on one pesticide will hasten the development of resistance; pesticides of different chemical types or alternative control measures should be included in a planned programme. In a spray programme Movento should be used with other insecticides of a different mode of action, either in alternation or as a 2-spray block within the programme e.g. following a neonicotinoid seed or soil treatment. Movento should always be applied at the full recommended rate of use and in sufficient water volume to achieve the required spray penetration into the crop and uniform coverage necessary for optimal pest control.

REstRiCtions
Do not treat undersown cereals or those due to be undersown. Avoid treating crops suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, grazing, pests or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Adverse crop effect (paling, reduction in vigour and biomass reduction) may occur when there is very wet weather before and after application, particularly where soils become waterlogged. These effects are typically transitory in nature and will normally have no adverse effect on crop yield in most cases. Avoid use on waterlogged soils or on crops subject to temporary waterlogging by heavy rainfall, as there is a risk of transitory chlorosis and biomass reduction. DO NOT use on sands or very light soils (ADAS 85 classification) or very stony or gravelly or free draining soils, as there is a risk of crop damage. Shallow drilled crops must only be treated post-emergence. DO NOT treat broadcast crops as uncovered seed may be damaged. DO NOT soil incorporate. Avoid spraying during periods of prolonged or severe frosts as sharp or severe frosts following application may cause transitory discoloration or scorch from which the crop will normally recover. DO NOT use on soils containing more than 10% organic matter. DO NOT disturb the soil after application (e.g. by harrowing or rolling). Avoid spraying within 5 m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods.

Movon
Established perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds growing from rootstocks will not be controlled by Movon. Speed of activity can be slow and is dependent on temperature and growing conditions. Activity can be slow under cool conditions and the final level of weed control may take some time to appear. Some soil moisture is required for Movon to be activated. Moist soil at and after application is required to give the best results. Best results will be obtained if rain falls within 7 days of application. Residual control may be reduced under prolonged dry conditions.

Good weed control depends on burying any trash or straw before or during seedbed preparation. Seedbeds must have a firm, fine tilth. Loose or cloddy seed beds must be consolidated otherwise crop damage may result due to inadequate seed cover. For pre-emergence treatments, seed should be covered with a minimum of 32mm of settled soil. Use at a rate of 0.5 or 1.0 litres of product/ha according to crop and growth stage of weeds present. Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer. Apply in 200-400 L/ha as a MEDiUM spray (BCPC category). Use the higher volume where crop or weed foliage is dense. A spray pressure of at least 2 bar is advised. Good, even spray coverage of soil and weeds is essential. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. To prevent damage, care must be taken to avoid drift onto neighbouring crops. Chlorosis or stunting of the crop may be observed, particularly where applications are made to crops grown on light, free draining soils. This effect is transitory in nature and there will normally be no adverse impact on grain yield. Only one application of Movon should be made to the crop.
Winter wheat (all varieties)

Apply pre or post-emergence at a rate of 0.5 or 1.0 L/ha up to and including second tiller stage (GS 22) and before 31st December in the year of planting.

Plough or cultivate to at least 15 cm before planting following crops of oilseed rape, field beans and edible brassicae. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Plough to at least 15 cm before planting winter onions or spring drilled peas, sugar beet, carrots and onions. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Wheat, barley and potatoes can be drilled without any special cultivations. In the event of crop failure, for any reason, plough to at least 15 cm and sow only wheat, barley and potatoes. An interval of 20 weeks should elapse between treatment and subsequent sowing of spring wheat and spring barley or planting potatoes. Where Movon and other products containing diflufenican are applied to successive cereal crops, levels of diflufenican (DFF) will build up in the soil. Ploughing or cultivation, with complete inversion of the furrow, must take place before planting any following non-cereal crop, except potatoes. Even where ploughing or cultivation is carried out there may still be a risk of damage to following crops of onions, leek and related species, or clover. As a precaution users who rent out their land to growers of these crops should not use DFF-containing products in successive years before renting out the land.

impoRtaNt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Nativo 75WG is recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on Brussels sprouts, cabbage, broccoli / calabrese, cauliflower, carrots and leeks. For best disease control and yield benefit Nativo 75WG should be applied at an early stage of disease development, before infection spreads to new crop growth.
REsistaNCE maNaGEmENt
Nativo 75WG contains trifloxystrobin, a member of the Qol cross-resistance group. Use Nativo 75WG as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. Do not spray more than 3 applications of Nativo 75WG to Brussels sprouts, cabbage, carrots or leeks and more than 2 applications to broccoli / calabrese or cauliflower. Also in accordance with FRAC guidelines for pre-mix Qol fungicides the number of applications of Qol containing products should be no more than 50% of the spray programme.

Brussels sprouts, cabbage, broccoli/calabrese and cauliflower
Nativo 75WG may be applied to Brussels sprouts, cabbage, broccoli/calabrese and cauliflower as a foliar spray at a maximum individual dose of 0.4 kg/ha in a water volume of 200 to 500 L/ha, using the higher volume in dense crops. The first application is recommended before disease establishes in the crop (making use of disease forecasting systems as appropriate). This should be followed by further doses at an interval of about 21 days. As part of a disease resistance management strategy, Nativo 75WG should be used in a fungicide spray programme with other products based on different classes of chemistry. The maximum number of doses allowed per crops is 3 for Brussels sprouts and cabbage and 2 for broccoli/calabrese and cauliflower. At least 21 days must be allowed between the final application and harvest. For control of brassica leaf spot diseases (Alternaria species, Mycosphaerella brassicicola) or for curative activity, mixing with an approved sticker/wetter adjuvant may enhance the activity of Nativo 75WG. If the crop is intended for processing consult the processor before use of Nativo 75WG.
Carrots
Nativo 75WG may be applied to carrots as a foliar spray at a maximum individual dose of 0.3 kg/ha in a water volume of 200 to 500 L/ha, using the higher volume in dense crops. The first application is recommended before disease establishes itself in the crop (making use of disease forecasting systems as appropriate). This should be followed by further doses at an interval of about 21 days. Typically the first application should be made prior to canopy closure in June/July; this is particularly important for control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum to ensure that all leaves are adequately protected as the microclimate under the crop becomes optimal for ascospore release from soil germinating apothecia. To reduce Alternaria infection on the leaves Nativo 75WG should be applied in early/mid August, or when first signs of disease appear on the foliage after crop GS 15 if earlier. As part of a disease resistance management strategy, Nativo 75WG should be used in a fungicide spray programme with other products based on different classes of chemistry. The maximum number of doses allowed per crops is 3. At least 21 days must be allowed between the final application and harvest.

DO nOt use Othello on crops undersown with grasses, clover or other legumes or any other broad-leaved crop. DO nOt apply Othello in tank-mix or sequence with any other ALS gramminicide such as those based on flupyrsulfuron, mesosulfuron or sulfosulfuron. Only one of the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or in tank-mixture with Othello: Chekker, Sekator or Eagle. Othello must not be applied to any crop suffering from stress as a result of drought, water-logging, pest or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Because some non-target crops are sensitive to Othello, extreme care is required to avoid drift onto plants outside the target area, or onto ponds, waterways or ditches. Application should not be made to frosted crops. Sharp or severe frosts following application may cause crop scorch from which the crop will normally recover. Crop effects may be observed following treatment, particularly on spray overlaps and for late season/spring applications. These effects are transitory in nature and will normally have no adverse effect on grain yield.

Othello is a highly active herbicide with foliar activity against meadow-grasses and a range of broad-leaved weeds. The actual time taken for herbicidal symptoms to appear and death varies between weed species, timing of application and weather conditions. In some cases symptoms may not be apparent for up to 4 weeks. As Othello is active primarily via foliar uptake good spray coverage of the target weed is essential for optimal efficacy. To reduce the risk of developing resistance or where resistance to ALS herbicides is suspected, applications should be made to young, actively growing weeds. Due to the risk of resistance development, Othello should not be used where annual grass weeds other than annual meadow-grass and rough-stalked meadow-grass are present. Always follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant grass and broad-leaved weeds. DO nOt use Othello as a stand-alone treatment for common chickweed or common poppy. Only use in a tank-mixture or sequence with herbicides with non-ALS modes of action for the control of common chickweed or common poppy. DO nOt use Othello as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. Always use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with non-ALS modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. Always monitor the effectiveness of weed control and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control.

fOLLOWinG CROPs AnD CROP fAiLURE

Winter wheat, winter barley and winter oilseed rape may be sown in the year of harvest to succeed a winter wheat crop treated with Othello. Spring wheat, spring barley, spring oilseed rape and sugar beet may be drilled in the spring following harvest of the Othello treated winter wheat crop. Prior to drilling winter or spring oilseed rape or sugar beet, plough or cultivate to 15cm prior to drilling. Occasionally in oilseed rape crops some seedlings may show slight discolouration on the cotyledons. These effects are quickly outgrown and should not affect subsequent growth. In the event of crop failure for any reason, soil treated with Othello can be re-drilled with winter wheat or spring wheat after normal cultivation. An interval of 6 weeks should elapse between treatment of the failed crop and drilling the replacement crop. Where Othello is applied in sequence or tank mixture with Eagle, Chekker or Sekator only sow the winter wheat, winter barley, spring wheat, spring barley and sugar beet as following crops in the normal rotation.

Othello tank-mix compatibilities

in soft crops avoid the use of tank-mix partners with the potential to cause crop damage when applied in tank-mix with an adjuvant. In particular, tank mixes with EC fungicide formulations and HBN based products (e.g. Capture and Oxytril CM) may result in transitory adverse crop effects. To reduce the risk of adverse crop effects, Othello + biopower should be applied alone.

Do not use Pacifica on crops undersown with grasses, clover or other legumes or any other broad-leaved crop. Only the following ALS inhibiting herbicides can be applied to the same crop in sequence or tank-mixture with Pacifica: Chekker, Sekator or Eagle. Pacifica must not be applied to any crop suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, pest or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Because some non-target crops are sensitive to Pacifica, extreme care is required to avoid drift onto plants outside the target area, or onto ponds, waterways or ditches.

This product contains mesosulfuron-methyl and iodosulfuron-methyl-sodium which are ALS inhibitors, also classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee as Group B. Use only as a part of a resistance management strategy that includes cultural methods of control and does not use ALS inhibitors as the sole chemical method of grass-weed control. Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer. Pacifica is readily translocated within the target weed, inhibiting growth within hours of application. The actual time taken for herbicidal symptoms to appear and death varies between weed species, timing of application and weather conditions. In some cases symptoms may not be apparent for up to 4 weeks. As Pacifica is active primarily via foliar uptake, good spray coverage of the target weed is essential for optimal efficacy. Weeds germinating after application will not be controlled. Due to the potential for yield loss without prior signs of crop phytotoxicity, avoid use of Pacifica to control light infestations of grass-weeds.

Situations where Enhanced Metabolism Resistance has been confirmed as RR or RRR by a resistance test or where a significant reduction in performance of other herbicides has been noted previously. Where mixed populations of black-grass and brome grass occur, use the 0.4 kg/ha dose of Pacifica. Only use 0.5 kg/ha where brome grass is the overwhelming constituent of the mixture.
Key aspects of the Pacifica resistance management strategy are:

ALWAYs follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant grass and broad-leaved weeds. iDEALLY adopt an integrated weed control programme incorporating cultural control measures to reduce reliance on Pacifica and the risk of resistance developing (see WRAG guidelines for options). Do not use Pacifica as a stand alone spring treatment for black-grass, rye-grass or common chickweed. Use only in sequence with a robust autumn herbicide programme based on products with non-ALS modes of action. This programme should also be integrated with a programme of cultural control measures. iDEALLY apply Pacifica as early as possible in the spring and before stem extension of grass-weeds. Do not use Pacifica as the sole means of grass-weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYs use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with non-ALS modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYs monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained, contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Winter Wheat

aPPLiCation
Rate of use: 41.67 ml [25 g a.i.] of Poncho per unit of seeds (50,000 seeds) Ensure that Poncho is homogeneous before use. Where necessary, the product should be fully re-dispersed using a re-circulating pump or mechanical agitator. If the product has been left to stand for more than two months, full agitation may be necessary to re-suspend the product before use. WaRninG: containers of greater than 20 litres capacity should be handled only with mechanical assistance.

Poncho should be evenly applied using a Bayer recommended seed treatment machine, which has been accurately calibrated to obtain the correct dose rate. For further details please contact the local Bayer CropScience seed treatment engineer. After use the product application equipment should be thoroughly cleaned using clean water.
sEED QUaLitY
Poncho seed treatment should not be used on seed with more than 16% moisture content, or on sprouted, cracked, skinned or otherwise damaged seed. All seed batches should be tested to ensure they are viable and suitable for treatment with Poncho. Consult processor before using on crops grown for processing.
LaBELLinG oF tREatED sEED

LaBEL tREatED sEED with the appropriate precautions using printed sacks, labels or bag tags.
stoRaGE oF tREatED sEED

Seed treated with Poncho should be drilled in the season of treatment. Although Poncho is not known to have any effect on the storage life of treated seed, the subsequent germination and performance of such seed may be adversely affected by physical storage conditions. No liability can therefore be accepted for the performance of stored, treated seed.
DRiLLinG oF tREatED sEED

It is essential to check drill calibration before use and again for each seed lot drilled to ensure an accurate seed rate. Poncho treated seed should be drilled at 5 cm (2) depth into a well prepared and firm seedbed providing optimal conditions for crop emergence and establishment. Adverse seedbed conditions such as very dry, fluffy, cloddy or capped seedbeds, waterlogging, drilling too deep or too shallow, the use of seed with low germination capacity/vigour and residual herbicides can reduce the field emergence of maize and sweet corn. This may be accentuated by Poncho.
Caution
The possible development of pest strains resistant to Poncho, as with other products containing neo-nicotinoids, cannot be excluded or predicted. If such resistant strains occur, Poncho is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

DisEasEs ContRoLLED
Previcur Energy contains propamocarb fosetyl, a combination of two active ingredients with proven efficacy at protecting the roots and aerial parts of broadleaved crops against Oomycete fungi. The combination has multi-site activity and as such is ideal to include in disease control programmes as part of an anti-resistance management strategy. Direct effects against fungi prevent mycelial growth/penetration and spore production/germination. These are supported by indirect effects which stimulate the plants natural defences (systemic acquired resistance). The following crop diseases are controlled:
Bremia lactucae (downy mildew) Pythium spp. (damping-off) Protected lettuce Protected lettuce, tomato and cucumber
Additional benefits against other Oomycete fungi such as Phytophthora species can also be expected. To ensure good control of Oomycete diseases, Previcur Energy must be applied in a protectant programme of treatments, before infections have occurred.

aPPLiCation
Previcur Energy may be applied as a seedbed drench or as a foliar spray. For rates, water volumes, timings and restrictions of application see crop specific information. Additional advice is as follows: seedbed drench: For best results when drenching, thoroughly saturate the growing medium. The growing medium should be moist before application. foliar sprays: Boom height and water volume should be adjusted to ensure good coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. In dense crops at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used as recommended. Apply as a MEDIUM quality spray (for details see Boom Sprayers Handbook published by BCPC). trickle irrigation: When applying by trickle irrigation systems, Previcur Energy should either be diluted in a bulk tank or through an injector type diluter. All application equipment should be washed/cleaned with water or dilute detergent solution and thoroughly rinsed three times.

Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Proline 275 at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Proline 275 contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Blumaria graminis) Apply Proline 275 at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Proline 275 at the first signs of disease. Proline 275 controls yellow rust in wheat and winter barley. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust Apply Proline 275 at the first signs of disease. Proline 275 controls brown rust in barley (Puccinia hordei) and rye (P. recondita) and will give moderate control of brown rust in wheat (P. recondita). A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) Apply Proline 275 at the first signs of disease. Proline 275 controls crown rust in winter and spring oats. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis) Apply Proline 275 at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. Proline 275 will give moderate control of tan spot in winter wheat. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Ear Disease Complex Apply Proline 275 soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for moderate control of Fusarium ear blight and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Through the reduction of ear blight, Proline 275 effectively reduces the level of the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat grain. However, where Fusarium levels are high, the reduction achieved may not always be sufficient to ensure that DON levels fall below the statutory limit.

Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Proline 275 gives high levels of Rhynchosporium control. Apply Proline 275 in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Proline 275 at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
WintER oiLsEED RAPE

Light Leaf spot Apply Proline 275 in autumn/winter (usually late October to early December) protectively. Follow up spray(s) may be required in early spring from the onset of stem elongation, depending on disease development. Phoma leaf spot/stem canker Apply Proline 275 in autumn at the first sign of disease. Repeat application in late autumn/ winter, if disease symptoms reoccur. Sclerotinia stem rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum) Apply Proline 275 at early to full flower.
sPRinG oiLsEED RAPE

(QUALIFIED MINOR USE RECOMMENDATION) Proline 275 can also be used on varieties of spring oilseed rape but crop safety has not been fully established.
REsistAnCE
Repeated application of Proline 275 alone should not be used on the same crop against a high risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action (e.g. morpholines) have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. The possible development of disease strains resistant to Proline 275 cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Proline 275 is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Strains of light leaf spot resistant to azole fungicides are known to exist. To avoid development of resistance apply product protectively in response to disease forecasts. Where possible, when light leaf spot is present, avoid the use of azole based fungicides when targeting other diseases such as Sclerotinia at mid flowering.

Proline 275 may be applied at any stage up to a pre harvest interval of 56 days. Apply Proline 275 in 100 to 300 litres of water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve.

tHoRoUGHLY sHAkE tHE PACk BEfoRE UsE. Add the required quantity of Proline 275 to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned before use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop. In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used. Spray equipment should be thoroughly cleaned with detergent after use.

Adjuvants

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Proline 275 is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

In soft crops avoid the use of tank-mixtures with HBNs or Atlantis WG + biopower. In particular, tank-mixtures with EC fungicide formulations as this may result in transitory adverse crop effects.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Proline 275 + strobilurin. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Proline 275 + strobilurin + Moddus + chlormequat.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Proline 275 in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Proline 275 are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.

intRoDUCtion
Prompto is a fungicide which combines the protectant and translaminar action of fenamidone with the systemic and protectant properties of propamocarb hydrochloride to give protection against late blight of potatoes. Fenamidone also gives protection against early blight. Avoid spraying within 5m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects and other arthropods.
REstRiCtions
Apply Prompto only to dry foliage. Do not apply Prompto if rainfall or irrigation is imminent. Avoid drift to areas outside those being sprayed having due regard to the prevailing weather conditions and the spray quality being used. PRotECt FRoM FRost. sHAKE WELL BEFoRE UsE.
DisEAsEs ContRoLLED
When used as part of a full programme of correctly timed sprays, Prompto gives control of late blight of potatoes and protects crops against early blight (Alternaria). It is essential to commence treatment early in the season because failure to treat blight at this stage can result in severe yield losses. Prompto may be used at any stage of the season although within a blight programme it is best targeted at the commencement of spraying. Prompto should be applied only as a protectant treatment. Using Prompto when blight has become readily visible (1% leaf area destroyed) is not recommended.
Prompto contains fenamidone, a QoI fungicide. Should more than one product containing a QoI fungicide be used in a programme, then these restrictions apply to all QoI containing products. Do not apply more than 6 applications of a QoI containing product to any potato crop. Prompto should be used in single or block applications in alternation with fungicides from a different cross-resistance group. The maximum number of consecutive applications is limited to three. To reduce the incidence of resistance developing, Prompto should make up no more than half of the intended applications in a programme.
Prompto
Prompto
In addition to the above conditions, and before application, consult and adhere to the latest FRAG-UK resistance guidance on application of QoI fungicides to potatoes.

All varieties of early, main and seed crop potatoes may be sprayed.
tiMinG
The first spray must be applied as soon as there is a risk of late blight infection, that is when a Blight Infection Period (Smith Period*) has occurred or an official warning has been issued. In the absence of any warning, protectant spraying of Prompto should begin just before the crop meets along the row.
2 consecutive days and nights of warm, humid weather are likely to fulfil the requirements of a Blight Infection Period and create a high risk of infection (see below).
Used as part of a late blight spray programme, Prompto will give protection from early blight (Alternaria). Dose: 2.0 L/ha Sprays should be repeated at 7 day intervals. Crops are at high risk when active blight is present in the area in dumps or on crops or volunteers and further Blight Infection Periods are recorded (or warnings issued). The risk is especially high when periods of rapid growth coincide with other high risk factors. Irrigated crops and potatoes being grown in certain areas of the country are regularly at high risk. High risk areas are defined as - areas of the country where weather conditions conducive to blight regularly occur during the growing season. - areas of the country associated with early potato production, production under temporary plastic mulches or extensive maincrop production where dumps and volunteers are frequently found. Applications of Prompto can be made until the potato haulm begins to senesce. When blight has become readily visible (1% leaf area destroyed), fungicides have little effect on subsequent development. Stop using Prompto under these conditions.

sHAKE WELL BEFoRE UsE. 1. Wash out sprayer, spray bars and nozzles to ensure that no trace remains of previous chemicals. 2. Check that the nozzle tips are clean, undamaged, of the correct type to produce the recommended spray quality and all of the same size. 3. Start filling the sprayer tank with clean water; check that the agitation is operating correctly. Check dose and volume of application. 4. Calculate the area to be sprayed with the tank load and hence the amount of chemical required. Add the required quantity of product to the water in the sprayer whilst the agitator is operating. Mix only sufficient chemical for immediate use. 5. Add water to the required level and continue agitation until spraying is completed. 6. Ensure that the spray bars are set at the correct height to give a good spray cover, and that alternate spray cones or fans meet just above the crop. Even cover with a well-mixed spray is essential for good results. 7. Commence spraying, being careful to maintain the correct pressure and tractor speed. 8. Wash equipment thoroughly with water and liquid detergent immediately after use. Finally wash out twice with water and drain.

DiRECtions foR UsE

imPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Prosaro is a mixture of a triazolinthione and triazole fungicide recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring barley, winter and spring wheat, winter rye, winter and spring oats and winter and spring oilseed rape. Avoid spraying within 6m of the field boundary to reduce the effects on non-target insects or other arthropods.
CRoPs
Prosaro may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring barley, winter and spring wheat, winter rye, winter and spring oats and winter and spring oilseed rape. Spring oilseed rape (QUALifiED minoR UsE RECommEnDAtion) Prosaro can also be used on varieties of spring oilseed rape, however these have not been supported by crop safety data.
RAtE of UsE
Apply Prosaro at 1.2 litre per hectare in cereals. Apply Prosaro at 1.0 litre per hectare in oilseed rape and oats. the maximum total dose per crop is: 2.4 litres per hectare for barley 3.6 litres per hectare for wheat and rye 2.0 litres per hectare for oilseed rape and oats
APPLiCAtion
Water volume
Apply Prosaro in 100-300 litres water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended.
Prosaro
Prosaro
spray quality

In wheat and rye Prosaro may be applied at any stage before grain milky ripe stage and in barley and oats up to beginning of flowering. In oilseed rape Prosaro may be applied up to 56 days before harvest.
mixinG
Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Prosaro to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing.
General
Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned with water and detergent after use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop. In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used.

APPLiCAtion timinG
Cereals
Eyespot (Tapesia spp.) Spray in the spring at the first sign of disease, from when the leaf sheaths begin to become erect until the 2nd node is detectable (GS 30-32). Septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Prosaro at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Prosaro contains two DMI fungicides. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis) Apply Prosaro at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Prosaro at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia recondita and P hordei) Apply Proasaro at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) Apply Prosaro at the first signs of disease. Prosaro controls crown rust in winter and spring oats. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis) Apply Prosaro at the first signs of disease in spring or early summer. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated.
Prosaro
Prosaro
Ear Disease Complex Apply Prosaro soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for control of Fusarium Ear Blight in wheat (or moderate control in barley) and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Through the control of ear blight, Prosaro effectively reduces the level of the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat grain. However, where Fusarium levels are high, the reduction achieved may not always be sufficient to ensure that DON levels fall below the statutory limit. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Apply Prosaro in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Prosaro at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
WintER oiLsEED RAPE

Light Leaf spot Apply Prosaro in autumn/winter (usually late October to early December) protectively. Follow up spray(s) may be required in early spring from the onset of stem elongation, depending on disease development. Phoma Leaf spot/stem Canker Apply Prosaro in autumn at the first sign of disease. Repeat application in late autumn/ winter, if disease symptoms reoccur. Sclerotinia stem rot (Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum) Apply Prosaro at early to full flower.
REsistAnCE stRAtEGY
Repeated application of Prosaro alone should not be used on the same crop against a high risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action (e.g. morpholines) have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Prosaro cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Prosaro is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Before using any of the mixtures shown above, first check the manufacturers latest recommendations for Moddus.

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Prosaro is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Prosaro + strobilurin. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Prosaro + strobilurin + Moddus + chlormequat.

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Prosaro in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Prosaro are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.

appLiCation
Redigo must only be used in conjunction with Bayer CropScience approved seed treatment application equipment by following the procedures given in the operating instructions. aLWaYs follow the operating instructions. Ensure that Redigo is homogeneous before use. Where necessary, the product should be fully re-dispersed using a re-circulating pump or mechanical agitator. For further advice on re-dispersing Redigo, please contact the local Seed Treatment Engineer of Bayer CropScience Ltd. WaRninG: containers of greater than 20 litres capacity should be handled only with mechanical assistance. Redigo should be evenly applied using a Bayer CropScience recommended seed treatment machine, which has been accurately calibrated to obtain the correct dose rate. Redigo should be co-applied with a minimum of 2 4 litres of water per tonne of seed to improve the evenness of coverage of treated seed. The amount of water used will depend on the type of seed treater used and processing conditions. For further details, please contact the local Seed Treatment Engineer of Bayer CropScience Ltd. After use the product application equipment should be thoroughly cleaned using clean water.
sEED QUaLitY
Redigo seed treatment should not be used on seed with more than 16% moisture content, or on sprouted, cracked, skinned or otherwise damaged seed. All seed batches should be tested to ensure they are viable and suitable for treatment with Redigo.

stoRaGE of tREatED sEED

Winter wheat Seed treated with Redigo should preferably be drilled in the season of treatment. Although Redigo is not known to have any effect on the storage life of treated seed, the subsequent germination and performance of such seed may be adversely affected by physical storage conditions. No liability can therefore be accepted for the performance of stored, treated seed. Winter and spring barley, spring wheat, oats, durum wheat, rye and triticale Treated seed must be used within the season of treatment
DRiLLinG of tREatED sEED

It is essential to check drill calibration before use and again for each seed lot drilled to ensure an accurate seed rate. Redigo treated seed should be drilled at 4 cm (1.5) depth into a well prepared and firm seedbed providing optimal conditions for crop emergence and establishment, using a minimum drilling rate of 125 kg/ha for wheat. Adverse seedbed conditions such as very dry, fluffy, cloddy or capped seedbeds, waterlogging, drilling too deep or too shallow, the use of seed with low germination capacity/vigour and residual herbicides, can reduce the field emergence of cereals. Redigo may accentuate this.

Wireworms and slugs Redigo Deter improves crop establishment by reducing damage caused by wireworms and slugs. In situations where very high populations of wireworms are present e.g. in excess of 1.25 million per hectare, additional control measures should be taken as the level of protection of seedlings given by Redigo Deter alone may be inadequate. Redigo Deter will only give protection from slugs to germinating seeds and not to aerial plant parts after crop emergence. If the slug population is very high, then additional control measures may be necessary. Leafhoppers When used to control BYDV vectors, Redigo Deter may give incidental suppression of leafhopper in early spring (March/April). For large populations or later attacks of the minor pest additional control measures should be taken.

To give protection against air-borne and splash-borne diseases later in the season appropriate follow-up fungicide sprays should be used. aphids/BYDV When aphid activity is unusually late, or in areas of particularly high risk where aphid activity is heavy and prolonged, and mild weather predominates, a follow-up aphicide treatment may be required. In such situations, crops treated with Redigo Deter should be monitored for the presence of aphids and a foliar aphicide applied if necessary. Leafhoppers Leafhopper activity can be suppressed in early spring (March/April) but for later or heavy attacks of this pest, an additional foliar applied insecticide is recommended. CaUtion: The possible development of disease or pest strains resistant to Redigo Deter, as with other products containing DMI fungicides or neonicotinoid insecticides, cannot be excluded or predicted.

REstRiCtions
Do not treat undersown cereals or those due to be undersown. Avoid treating crops suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, grazing, pests or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Adverse crop effect (paling, reduction in vigour) may occur when there is very wet weather before and after application, particularly on crops grown on light free draining soils or where soils become waterlogged. These effects are typically transitory in nature and will have no adverse effect on crop yield in most cases. Do not use on waterlogged soils or soils prone to waterlogging. Do not use on sands or very light soils (ADAS 85 classification) or very stony or gravelly soils, as there is a risk of crop damage. Shallow drilled crops must only be treated post-emergence. Do not treat broadcast crops as uncovered seed may be damaged. Do not soil incorporate. Avoid spraying during periods of prolonged or severe frosts as sharp or severe frosts following application may cause transitory discoloration or scorch from which the crop will normally recover. Do not use on soils containing more than 10% organic matter. Do not disturb the soil after application (e.g. by harrowing or rolling).
WEEDs ContRoLLED
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian ryegrass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.
Regatta
Regatta
Key aspects of the Regatta Resistance Management Strategy are: ALWAYs follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant weeds. Do not use Regatta as a stand-alone treatment for black-grass control. Use only in tank-mix or sequence with effective herbicides with alternative modes of action. Do not use Regatta as the sole means of grass weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYs use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with alternative modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYs monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Established perennial grasses and broad leaved weeds growing from rootstocks will not be controlled by Regatta. Speed of activity can be slow and is dependent on temperature and growing conditions. Activity can be slow under cool conditions and the final level of weed control may take some time to appear. Some soil moisture is required for Regatta to be activated. Moist soil at and after application is required to give the best results. Best results will be obtained if rain falls within 7 days of application. Residual control may be reduced under prolonged dry conditions.

Good weed control depends on burying any trash or straw before or during seedbed preparation. Seedbeds must have a firm, fine tilth. Loose or cloddy seed beds must be consolidated otherwise crop damage may result due to inadequate seed cover. For pre-emergence treatments, seed should be covered with a minimum of 32mm of settled soil. Use at a rate of 0.6 litres of product/ha. Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer. Apply in 200-400 L/ha as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Use the higher volume where crop or weed foliage is dense. A spray pressure of at least 2 bars is advised. Good, even spray coverage of soil and weeds is essential. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. To prevent damage, care must be taken to avoid drift onto neighbouring crops. Only one application of Regatta should be made to the crop. Winter wheat (all varieties) Apply pre or post-emergence up to and including second tiller stage (GS 22) and before 31st December in the year of planting. Winter barley (all varieties) Apply pre or post-emergence up to and including third tiller stage (GS 23) and before 31st December in the year of planting.

Plough or cultivate to at least 15cm before planting following crops of oilseed rape, field beans and edible brassicae. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Plough to at least 15cm before planting peas, sugar beet, carrots and onions. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Wheat, barley and potatoes can be drilled without any special cultivations. In the event of crop failure, for any reason, plough to at least 15cm and sow only wheat, barley and potatoes. An interval of 12 weeks should elapse between treatment and subsequent sowing of spring wheat and spring barley. Where Regatta and other products containing diflufenican are applied to successive cereal crops, levels of diflufenican (DFF) will build up in the soil. Ploughing or cultivation, with complete inversion of the furrow, must take place before planting any following non-cereal crop, except potatoes. Even where ploughing or cultivation is carried out there may still be a risk of damage to following crops of onions, leek and related species, or clover. As a precaution users who rent out their land to growers of these crops should not use DFF-containing products in successive years before renting out the land.

Late applications of pellets to broad-leaved plants may result in lodging of the pellets in foliage. Care should be taken to avoid this when making applications to edible crops. Do not allow pellets to lodge in edible crops. When surface broadcasting avoid applications within 6m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods. No single method of slug control is likely to be completely successful and a combination of both cultural and chemical control is advisable.

Rivet may be applied as a broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible or listed edible crop, or in an admixture with cereal or rye-grass seed at drilling - see below.
Broadcast application to bare soil or any outdoor non-edible crop and certain edible crops.
Broadcast Rivet pellets with a suitable granule or fertilizer applicator. The best results are obtained against slugs, snails and leatherjackets when they are feeding near the soil surface, normally during mild, damp conditions. Apply Rivet close to the time of drilling/planting when the pests or their damage are seen, or as indicated by monitoring for pest activity.
Rivet

For optimum results when weather conditions are conducive to soil surface slug activity apply Rivet to the prepared seedbed before drilling - the pellets should remain undisturbed on the soil surface for 4-7 days before the next cultivation, or drilling. A single treatment will normally clear up an infestation, but where the initial population is very high, or where due to climatic conditions a subsequent invasion of the pest occurs, further treatment may be necessary provided that the maximum number of treatments for the appropriate edible crop is not exceeded. (Refer to table above) oilseed rape Varieties with low glucosinolate contents are extremely susceptible to slug attack and growers should be especially vigilant for very first signs of slugs or grazing damage. Alternatively, monitoring for slug activity using baited traps should be carried out (see Monitoring Recommendations below). Application of Rivet must be made immediately slug activity occurs. Monitoring should continue and one further Rivet treatment may be applied if necessary. Although the level of slug damage control achieved on double low oilseed rape may be comparable to that on single low varieties, the extreme susceptibility of the former may result in higher than expected damage levels after treatment. Leatherjackets Application of Rivet for the control of slugs and snails will also reduce the leatherjacket population. strawberry seed beetle Apply Rivet when the adult beetles appear at the time the fruit is forming, usually before strawing down.

Cereals notE: Where an admixture of Rivet with cereal seed is used only one broadcast application of Rivet may be made to a cereal crop. Application of Rivet in admixture with seed will protect the seed germ from being eaten and ensure maximum plant emergence. The rate of Rivet should be varied with the seed drilling rate to ensure that 5 kg/ha Rivet is not exceeded. The table below gives the amount of Rivet required per 50 kg cereal seed to obtain the correct dosage per hectare at different seeding rates:
Rivet dosage rate: 5 kg/ha

Thoroughly mix the pellets with the seed when filling the drill hopper, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the seed. Cereal seed must only be admixed with Rivet immediately prior to drilling. Rye-grass To help ensure maximum plant emergence 5 kg/ha Rivet may be used in admixture with rye-grass seed at drilling. Ensure the pellets are mixed evenly with the seed when filling the drill hopper. Rye-grass seed admixed with Rivet may be stored, but the admixture must be drilled within 12 months of mixing.

Put slug traps out before cultivation, when the soil is visibly moist and the weather is mild (5-25C). Traps consist of a cover about 25 cm across, with a small heap (20 ml or 2 heaped teaspoonfuls) of chickens layers mash (NOT slug pellets) beneath. In each field, nine traps (13 in fields larger than 20 ha) should be set out in a W pattern. Also concentrate on areas known to suffer damage. Leave traps overnight and examine early the following morning.

DiRECtions FoR UsE

iMPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Rudis is recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on cabbage, Brussels sprouts and leeks For best disease control and yield benefit Rudis should be applied at an early stage of disease development, before infection spreads to new crop growth.
REsistAnCE MAnAGEMEnt
Rudis contains prothioconazole, a member of the DMI cross-resistance group. Use Rudis as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. Do not spray more than 3 applications of Rudis per crop or per season.
DisEAsEs ContRoLLED
Cabbage, Brussels sprouts Leeks* Dark leaf spot (Alternaria brassicae & Alternaria brassicicola), Light leaf spot (Pyrenopeziza brassicae), Ring spot (Mycosphaerella brassicicola), Powdery mildew (Erysiphe cruciferarum), Phoma leaf spot (Phoma lingam) Leek rust (Puccinia allii) and Purple Blotch (Alternaria porri)
Qualified minor use recommendation: Based on limited data, useful reductions in Cladosporium allii (leaf blotch) and Stemphylium botryosum in leeks would also be expected from applications of Rudis.
The possible development of disease strains resistant to Rudis cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Rudis is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

Brussels sprouts, cabbage:
Rudis may be applied as a foliar spray at a maximum individual dose of 0.4 L/ha in a water volume of 200 to 500 L/ha, using the higher volume in dense crops. The first application is recommended before disease establishes in the crop (making use of disease forecasting systems as appropriate). This should be followed by further doses at an interval of about 21 days. As part of a disease resistance management strategy, Rudis should be used in a fungicide spray programme with other products based on different classes of chemistry. The maximum number of doses allowed per crops is 3. At least 21 days must be allowed between the final application and harvest. If the crop is intended for processing consult the processor before use of Rudis.

The maximum number of doses allowed per crop is 3. At least 21 days must be allowed between the final application and harvest. For control of leek rust, mixing with an approved sticker/wetter adjuvant may enhance the activity of Rudis if in a curative situation or if the crop is very waxy. If the crop is intended for processing consult the processor before use of Rudis.
MiXinG
Add the required quantity of Rudis to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. Sprayers should be tHoRoUGHLY CLEAnED before use and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages.

iMPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Sparticus Xpro is a mixture of a carboxamide, triazole and triazolinthione fungicide recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring wheat, winter rye, and triticale. PRotECt FRoM FRoSt
CRoPS
Sparticus Xpro may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring wheat, triticale and winter rye.
RAtE oF USE
Apply Sparticus Xpro at 1.25 litre per hectare in winter and spring wheat, triticale and winter rye. The maximum number of treatments is two per crop.
APPLiCAtion
Water volume
Apply Sparticus Xpro in 100-300 litres water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended.
Spray quality

In wheat, triticale and rye Sparticus Xpro may be applied at any stage before grain milky ripe stage.
Mixing
Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Sparticus Xpro to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing.

Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Sparticus Xpro at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Sparticus Xpro contains two DMI fungicides. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website.

tan Spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis)

Apply Sparticus Xpro at the first signs of disease in spring or early summer. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated.
Ear Disease Complex

Apply Sparticus Xpro soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for control of Fusarium ear blight in wheat and reduction of sooty moulds. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears.

Apply Sparticus Xpro in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later.
RESiStAnCE StRAtEGY
Tank-mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action against the diseases present have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. No more than two applications of SDH inhibitors must be applied to the same cereal crop. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Sparticus Xpro cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Sparticus Xpro is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

DiRECtionS foR USE

General information
Strate can reduce straw length and give greater resistance to lodging and aid harvesting of winter wheat, winter barley and spring barley. The full benefit from Strate treatment will only be obtained on crops with high lodging potential and where other inputs are adequate (e.g. fertiliser and fungicides).
REStRiCtionS
Use only on winter varieties of wheat sown in the autumn, and on winter and spring sown barley. Stress factors reduce crop growth and Strate plant growth regulator, if used under stress conditions, may lead to these effects being more pronounced. Winter cereals can be susceptible to drought stress. Do not spray when the soil is very dry. Do not spray crops heavily diseased or suffering from pest damage, nutrient deficiency or herbicide stress. Do not spray during cold weather or periods of night frost. Do not spray when the crop is wet or rain is imminent. Do not spray when the leaf sheaths have split and the ear is visible. Avoid spray drift onto neighbouring crops. Wash sprayer and mixing vessels with plenty of clean water. The appropriate seed merchant should be informed before hand whenever it is intended to use Strate on a seed crop grown for certification. Preferably applications should be by Tramlines as late pesticide applications can cause the production of green side tillers in the wheelings which may be more apparent in shortened crops. pRotECt fRom fRoSt.
CRop SpECifiC infoRmation

Use only on winter barley, spring barley and winter varieties of wheat sown in the autumn.

application
Apply Strate in 200-400 L/ha of water as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Apply through any conventional field crop sprayer using medium nozzles at a pressure of 2-3 bar. Good spray coverage is essential. Ensure the sprayer is correctly calibrated before use and adjusted to give adequate and even coverage of the top leaves. Spray immediately after mixing. Control of lodging in winter wheat, winter barley and spring barley is often difficult because crop growth is influenced throughout the season by many factors which can change the requirement for growth regulation. Strate has been designed as a flexible treatment to reduce lodging, to enable decisions to be made throughout the season and allow use in sequence with other plant growth regulators. The following table gives rates, timings and sequential applications which can be used:

notE GS 30 is leaf sheath erect stage of crop growth. GS 34 is fourth node detectable stage of crop growth. GS 37 is flag leaf just visible stage of crop growth. GS 39 is flag leaf ligule/collar just visible stage of growth. GS 45 is boots swollen stage of crop growth. Do not spray crop when the leaf sheaths have split and the ears are visible. The best response to Strate is obtained when the crop is growing vigorously. Apply Strate before lodging has started. It is recommended that only crops grown under conditions of high fertility and therefore at risk from lodging should be treated with Strate. Thin crops and particularly those on soils of low fertility are less likely to lodge, and in addition such crops may ripen prematurely.

Swift SC
Swift SC
RESiStanCE
To avoid build-up of resistance do not apply this or any other product containing QoI fungicides more than two times per crop per year. Swift SC contains trifloxystrobin, a member of the Qol cross-resistance group. Swift SC should be used preventatively and not relied on for its curative potential. It should not be used where disease is already established. Use Swift SC as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two sprays of Qol containing products to any cereal crop. Swift SC must always be used in mixture with another product, containing an active ingredient from a different cross resistance group, that is recommended for control of the same target disease applied at a rate that will give robust control. Where strains of fungi resistant to Qols occur, Swift SC is likely to be ineffective and should not be used. Strains of barley powdery mildew resistant to Qols are common in the UK. Limiting the number of sprays is an important factor in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Appropriate disease risk assessment or decision support systems must be used when deciding whether to treat with Swift SC. The possible development of resistance to Swift SC cannot be predicted. Should it occur Swift SC may not give satisfactory control.

Continue agitation at all times, including topping up the spray tank and during spraying and any stoppages until the spray tank is empty. Wash out all spray equipment thoroughly with water immediately after use. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned before use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop. In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used. Rinse container thoroughly, by using an integrated pressure-rinsing device or manually rinsing three times. Add washings to sprayer at time of filling, and dispose of safely.

DisEasEs ConTRoLLED
For control of Botrytis cinerea (grey mould). Alternating or mixing fungicides with different modes of action is a recognised disease resistance management strategy. To minimise the likelihood of the development of Botrytis strains resistant to Teldor no more than 2 sprays of Teldor alone should be applied consecutively within a programme of sprays. Afterwards change to botryticides from different chemical groups for at least two consecutive sprays. The possible development of disease strains resistant to Teldor cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Teldor is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

application
For all crops listed on this label apply Teldor at 1.5 kg/ha. maximum individual dose: 1.5 kg/ha. For successful control of Botrytis in all listed crops it is vital to achieve complete cover on all flowers and fruitlets throughout the blossom period. Sprayers should be set up in such a way as to achieve maximum cover on these parts, with sprays directed over the crop rows (not applied overall). Do not use finer than 80 mesh filters.

mEDiUm quality (BCPC definition). A maximum of 4 sprays of Teldor at 1.5 kg/ha may be applied in any season, however no more than 2 sprays of Teldor may be applied consecutively. Afterwards change to botryticides from a different chemical group for at least two consecutive sprays - see Diseases Controlled above.

The first spray of a fungicide programme should be made at first flower (white bud). Apply 1.5 kg Teldor in at least 300 litres of water per hectare, with a 10-14 day interval between sprays - see Number of Sprays above. Harvest interval At least 1 day must elapse between final treatment of Teldor and picking fruit.
Raspberries, Blackberries, Loganberries and other Rubus hybrid berries

The first spray of a fungicide programme should be made at early flower (white bud). Apply 1.5 kg Teldor in at least 1,000 litres of water per hectare, with a 10-14 day interval between sprays - see Number of Sprays above. Harvest interval At least 1 day must elapse between final treatment of Teldor and picking fruit.
Currants, (black, red or white) and Gooseberries

The first spray of fungicide programme should be made at the late grape stage for currants and at first open flowers for gooseberries. Apply 1.5 kg Teldor in at least 1,000 litres of water per hectare, with a 10-14 day interval between sprays - see Number of Sprays above. Harvest interval At least 7 days must elapse between final treatment of Teldor and picking fruit.
Grapes - outdoor
Botrytis control usually requires a programme of fungicide sprays and Teldor may be used as part of such a programme. If more than one application of Teldor at 1.5 kg/ha is made to a crop in the same growing season the applications must be alternated with a Botrytis control product from a different chemical group. If only two fungicide applications are made in a growing season for control of Botrytis, only one may include Teldor - see Diseases Controlled above. Apply Teldor at 1.5 kg/ha as a protectant. Application may be made at any stage between full flower (BBCH 65) and start of berry softening (BBCH 85). Use a spray volume of 625 - 1,000 L/ha, depending on the application method, with a 21 day interval between sprays. Full coverage of flowers and developing fruit must be ensured by the application method employed. Harvest interval At least 21 days must elapse between final treatment of Teldor and picking fruit.

DisEasEs ConTRoLLED
The possible development of diseases resistant to Torch cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Torch is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Repeated application of Torch alone should not be used on the same crop against a high-risk pathogen such as cereal powdery mildew. Tank mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action have been shown to delay the development of resistance. Spiroxamine, fenpropidin and fenpropimorph share a similar mode of action.

Torch may be applied at any stage as follows: Wheat, Rye - before caryopsis watery ripe stage; Barley - up to and including ear emergence complete.
Powdery Mildew (Winter & spring Wheat, Barley and Rye)

Apply Torch at first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated if necessary.
Yellow Rust and Brown Rust (Winter & spring Wheat, Barley and Rye)
Torch applied at first signs of disease will control yellow rust and give moderate control of brown rust. Applications to established infections will be less effective. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if reinfection occurs.

Totril is recommended for post-emergence treatment of broad-leaved weeds following the use of a soil-acting pre-emergence herbicide. It is recommended post-emergence in onions (bulb, salad), leeks, shallots and garlic. Totril may be applied as a single application up to 1.8 L/ha and as a programme of sprays up to a maximum total dose of 2.8 L/ha. There is no soil type restriction.
sown crops
full dose applications: Totril can be applied up to a maximum rate of 1.8 L/ha to control established larger weeds (4-6 leaf stage). However it is important to note that crop tolerance is related to the development of leaf waxes and applications before three true leaves are fully expanded may cause crop damage at this full rate. Crop tolerance will also be reduced when the crop is suffering from stress or leaf waxes have been impaired in their development or are physically damaged. Apply in a water volume of between 300 and 400 L/ha as appropriate to achieving good cover of the weeds.

No more than the maximum total dose of 2.8 L/ha may be applied per crop.

mEDiUm quality (as defined by BCPC)
flexible dose programme: Totril may also be applied as a flexible dose programme depending upon crop and weed growth stage. This is particularly appropriate where climatic or cultural conditions result in flushes of weeds or when there is early weed emergence before the crop is fully hardened. The dose of application should be adjusted to take into account crop safety and weed susceptibility. The crop safety of Totril is dependent upon the development of leaf waxes, with higher doses being tolerated as the crop grows. As a guide to crop safety, low doses of around 0.15 L/ha are appropriate at emergence of the first true leaf, increasing to 0.5 L/ha once the second leaf has emerged. At least 7 days should elapse between applications. The full dose of 1.8 L/ha is generally well tolerated once the third leaf has fully expanded and surface waxes are in good condition. Crop tolerance will be reduced if the crop is suffering from stress. It is recommended that the programme begins as soon as weeds first emerge and are at the vulnerable cotyledon stage but not before the first true leaf of the crop has begun to emerge. Earlier germinating or less susceptible weed species may not be killed by the first treatment. They will usually be checked and then controlled by later applications. Further applications should be made as each new flush of weeds reaches the cotyledon stage. As the crop matures higher rates of application can be made to control more difficult weed species. Apply in a water volume of between 300 and 400 L/ha as appropriate to achieving good cover of the weeds.

Transplanted crops
full dose applications: Totril can be applied up to a maximum rate of 1.8 L/ha to control established larger weeds (4-6 leaf stage). However it is important to note that crop tolerance is related to the condition of leaf waxes. Therefore, to ensure that any wax physically damaged during transplanting has had the opportunity to be replaced, it is recommended that 2-3 weeks have elapsed before the first application of Totril, post-transplanting. The full dose of 1.8 L/ha is generally well tolerated by the crop once the third leaf has fully expanded and surface waxes are in good condition. Crop tolerance will be reduced if the crop is suffering from stress. Apply in a water volume of between 300 and 400 L/ha as appropriate to achieving good cover of the weeds.

Further applications should be made as each new flush of weeds reaches the cotyledon stage. As the crop matures higher rates of application can be made to control more difficult weed species. The rate of application in terms of crop safety is dependent upon growth stage and the condition of surface waxes (for further details see sown crops section). Leaf scorch and some distortion can occur after spraying Totril. In normal circumstances this is transitory and should not affect yield. Do noT treat crops growing under adverse conditions (e.g. extreme cold, severe frost, flooding, drought, wind damage, severe disease) otherwise this damage can be accentuated. Apply in a water volume of between 300 and 400 L/ha as appropriate to achieving good cover of the weeds.

MAnAGEMEnt stRAtEGY to MiniMisE tHE LiKELiHooD oF REsistAnCE

Apply fungicides according to manufacturers recommendations for the target disease (or complex) at the specific crop growth stage indicated. Effective disease management is a critical parameter in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. Unicur is a mixture of two fungicides with different modes of action, a strobilurin and a triazolinthione. Unicur contains fluoxastrobin, a member of the Qol cross-resistance group. Unicur should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential. Use Unicur as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. Do not apply any more than two consecutive applications of Unicur. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Unicur cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Unicur is unlikely to give satisfactory control.
FACtoRs AFFECtinG CRoP sAFEtY

Application of Unicur to young plants before the beginning of bulb formation may cause some transient leaf chlorosis and leaf distortion. To avoid this and gain the maximum yield and quality benefit from the product, apply from the beginning of bulb formation.

General information
Upgrade can reduce straw length and give greater resistance to lodging and aid harvesting of winter wheat, winter barley and spring barley. The full benefit from Upgrade treatment will only be obtained on crops with high lodging potential and where other inputs are adequate (e.g. fertiliser and fungicides).
REstRiCtions
Use only on winter varieties of wheat sown in the autumn, and on winter and spring sown barley. Stress factors reduce crop growth and Upgrade plant growth regulator, if used under stress conditions, may lead to these effects being more pronounced. Winter cereals can be susceptible to drought stress. Do not spray when the soil is very dry. Do not spray crops heavily diseased or suffering from pest damage, nutrient deficiency or herbicide stress. Do not spray during cold weather or periods of night frost. Do not spray when the crop is wet or rain is imminent. Do not spray when the leaf sheaths have split and the ear is visible. Avoid spray drift onto neighbouring crops. Wash sprayer and mixing vessels with plenty of clean water. The appropriate seed merchant should be informed before hand whenever it is intended to use Upgrade on a seed crop grown for certification. Preferably applications should be by Tramlines as late pesticide applications can cause the production of green side tillers in the wheelings which may be more apparent in shortened crops. pRotECt FRom FRost.

application
Apply Upgrade in 200-400 L/ha of water as a mEDiUm spray (BCPC category). Apply through any conventional field crop sprayer using medium nozzles at a pressure of 2-3 bar. Good spray coverage is essential. Ensure the sprayer is correctly calibrated before use and adjusted to give adequate and even coverage of the top leaves. Spray immediately after mixing. Control of lodging in winter wheat, winter barley and spring barley is often difficult because crop growth is influenced throughout the season by many factors which can change the requirement for growth regulation. Upgrade has been designed as a flexible treatment to reduce lodging, to enable decisions to be made throughout the season and allow use in sequence with other plant growth regulators. The following table gives rates, timings and sequential applications which can be used:

GS 39 is flag leaf ligule/collar just visible stage of growth. GS 45 is boots swollen stage of crop growth. Do not spray crop when the leaf sheaths have split and the ears are visible. The best response to Upgrade is obtained when the crop is growing vigorously. Apply Upgrade before lodging has started. It is recommended that only crops grown under conditions of high fertility and therefore at risk from lodging should be treated with Upgrade. Thin crops and particularly those on soils of low fertility are less likely to lodge, and in addition such crops may ripen prematurely.

Variano Xpro contains bixafen, an SDH inhibitor. Apply no more than two applications of SDH inhibitors to any cereal crop. Strains of powdery mildew resistant to QoI fungicides are common in the UK. Where specific control of wheat mildew is required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures, including products with recommendations for control of mildew that contain different active substances used in mixture or sequence. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. CAUtion: The possible development of disease strains resistant to Variano Xpro cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, Variano Xpro is unlikely to give satisfactory control.

REstRiCtions
Do not treat undersown cereals or those due to be undersown. Avoid treating crops suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, grazing, pests or disease attack, nutrient deficiency, soil compaction or other factors reducing crop growth. Adverse crop effect (paling, reduction in vigour and biomass reduction) may occur when there is very wet weather before and after application, particularly where soils become waterlogged. These effects are typically transitory in nature and will normally have no adverse effect on crop yield in most cases. Avoid use on waterlogged soils or on crops subject to temporary waterlogging by heavy rainfall, as there is a risk of transitory chlorosis and biomass reduction. DO NOT use on sands or very light soils (ADAS 85 classification) or very stony or gravelly or free draining soils, as there is a risk of crop damage. Shallow drilled crops must only be treated post-emergence. DO NOT treat broadcast crops as uncovered seed may be damaged. DO NOT soil incorporate. Avoid spraying during periods of prolonged or severe frosts as sharp or severe frosts following application may cause transitory discoloration or scorch from which the crop will normally recover. DO NOT use on soils containing more than 10% organic matter. DO NOT disturb the soil after application (e.g. by harrowing or rolling). Avoid spraying within 5 m of the field boundary to reduce effects on non-target insects or other arthropods.

WEEDs ContRoLLED
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild oats and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer. Key aspects of the Vigon Resistance Management Strategy are: ALWAYs follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant weeds. Do not use Vigon as a stand-alone treatment for black-grass control. Use only in tank mix or sequence with effective herbicides with alternative modes of action. Do not use Vigon as the sole means of grass-weed or broad-leaved weed control in successive crops. ALWAYs use grass and broad-leaved weed herbicides with alternative modes of action throughout the cropping rotation. ALWAYs monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass or broad-leaved weed control. If unexplained, contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.

Vigon
Established perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds growing from rootstocks will not be controlled by Vigon. Speed of activity can be slow and is dependent on temperature and growing conditions. Activity can be slow under cool conditions and the final level of weed control may take some time to appear. Some soil moisture is required for Vigon to be activated. Moist soil at and after application is required to give the best results. Best results will be obtained if rain falls within 7 days of application. Residual control may be reduced under prolonged dry conditions.

Good weed control depends on burying any trash or straw before or during seedbed preparation. Seedbeds must have a firm, fine tilth. Loose or cloddy seed beds must be consolidated otherwise crop damage may result due to inadequate seed cover. For pre-emergence treatments, seed should be covered with a minimum of 32mm of settled soil. Use at a rate of 0.5 or 1.0 litres of product/ha according to crop and growth stage of weeds present. Apply via a horizontal boom sprayer. Apply in 200-400 L/ha as a MEDiUM spray (BCPC category). Use the higher volume where crop or weed foliage is dense. A spray pressure of at least 2 bar is advised. Good, even spray coverage of soil and weeds is essential. Ensure that spray swaths do not overlap. To prevent damage, care must be taken to avoid drift onto neighbouring crops. Chlorosis or stunting of the crop may be observed, particularly where applications are made to crops grown on light, free draining soils. This effect is transitory in nature and there will normally be no adverse impact on grain yield. Only one application of Vigon should be made to the crop.

Plough or cultivate to at least 15 cm before planting following crops of oilseed rape, field beans and edible brassicae. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Plough to at least 15 cm before planting winter onions or spring drilled peas, sugar beet, carrots and onions. Ensure thorough soil mixing before planting. Wheat, barley and potatoes can be drilled without any special cultivations. In the event of crop failure, for any reason, plough to at least 15 cm and sow only wheat, barley and potatoes. An interval of 20 weeks should elapse between treatment and subsequent sowing of spring wheat and spring barley or planting potatoes. Where Vigon and other products containing diflufenican are applied to successive cereal crops, levels of diflufenican (DFF) will build up in the soil. Ploughing or cultivation, with complete inversion of the furrow, must take place before planting any following non-cereal crop, except potatoes. Even where ploughing or cultivation is carried out there may still be a risk of damage to following crops of onions, leek and related species, or clover. As a precaution users who rent out their land to growers of these crops should not use DFF-containing products in successive years before renting out the land.

Shake the container well before use. Half fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required amount of Vigon. Wash out the container and add the washings to the spray solution, before topping up with clean water. Maintain continuous agitation of spray solution during mixing and loading and until spraying is complete. Do not leave the sprayer filled with the spray solution standing for long periods. Wash out the sprayer thoroughly after use using a minimum of two rinses.

imPoRtAnt: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. Zephyr is a triazolinthione and strobilurin fungicide recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring barley, winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, rye and triticale.

Rye
Eyespot, powdery mildew, brown rust and Rhynchosporium. Eyespot (Oculimacula spp.) Zephyr controls eyespot in wheat, triticale and rye and reduces the incidence and severity in barley. Spray in the spring at the first sign of disease, from when the leaf sheaths begin to become erect until the 2nd node is detectable (GS 30-32). septoria Leaf Blotch and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Stagonospora nodorum) Apply before disease is established in the crop. To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Zephyr at full flag leaf emergence (GS 39) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated.
Zephyr
Zephyr
Applications to upper leaves where S. tritici symptoms are present are likely to be less effective. Zephyr contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis) Apply Zephyr at the first signs of disease. Zephyr controls mildew in barley and when used for control of other diseases will also give control of powdery mildew in wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated. Strains of wheat and barley powdery mildew resistant to Qol fungicides are common in the UK. Where specific control of wheat mildew is required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures, including products with recommendations for control of mildew that contain different active substances used in mixture or sequence. Yellow Rust (Puccinia striiformis) Apply Zephyr at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Brown Rust (Puccinia hordei and P. recondita) Apply Zephyr at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective. Ear Disease Complex Apply Zephyr soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS59-69) for good reduction of Fusarium ear blight and reduction of sooty moulds in wheat. Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) Zephyr gives high levels of Rhynchosporium control. Apply Zephyr in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later. net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) Apply Zephyr at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.

Zephyr may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring barley, winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye. Apply Zephyr at 1.0 litres per hectare in winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and 0.75 litres per hectare in barley. The maximum total dose per crop is: 2.0 litres per hectare per crop in winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and 1.5 litres per hectare per crop in barley. Apply Zephyr in 100-300 litres of water per hectare. The higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure / risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control may be compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve. A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended. Apply as a mEDiUm spray quality (as defined by BCPC).

Zephyr may be applied at any stage before grain milky ripe stage (GS 71) in winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, triticale and rye and up to beginning of anthesis (GS 61) in winter and spring barley.
miXinG AnD sPRAYinG

Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Zephyr to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned before use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop, In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used. Spray equipment should be thoroughly cleaned with water and detergent after use.
REsistAnCE
Apply fungicides according to the manufacturers recommendations for the target disease (or complex) at the specific crop GS indicated. Effective disease management is a critical parameter in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. Zephyr is a mixture of two fungicides with different modes of action, a strobilurin and a triazolinthione.
Zephyr
Zephyr
Zephyr contains trifloxystrobin, a member of the QoI cross-resistance group. Zephyr should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential. Use Zephyr as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. You must not apply more than two foliar applications of QoI-containing products to any cereal crop. Strains of wheat and barley powdery mildew resistant to QoIs are common in the UK. There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Septoria tritici populations in the UK. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Use of fungicides which have different modes of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. A programme of sprays should include no more than two sprays of Zephyr or any other product that contains a strobilurin fungicide. Limiting the number of sprays is an important factor in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations. Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Appropriate disease risk assessment or decision support systems must be used when deciding whether to treat with Zephyr.
CAUtion
The possible development of resistance to Zephyr cannot be predicted. Should it occur Zephyr may not give satisfactory control and no responsibility can be accepted for any loss incurred.

Adjuvants
Zephyr
fungicide

All sulphonyl urea herbicides have the potential to cause damage to sensitive crops if residues are left in the spray tank. For this reason sprayer hygiene following the use of SU + chlorothalonil + Zephyr is very important. Sprayers should always be thoroughly cleaned out with a proprietary sprayer cleaner immediately after use. This should always take place, even if further cereal crops have been treated by the sprayer between the last application SU mixtures and a subsequent broad leaved crop.

Adjuvant oil recommended by the herbicide manufacturer may be added in mixes with Zephyr. Do not use any of these herbicides in mixes with Zephyr + Moddus + chlormequat

General Precautions
For any tank-mix it is important that the appropriate manufacturers recommendations should be consulted and followed, and care taken to ensure that applications are made within the recommendations for each product. First disperse Zephyr in the spray tank (follow label Mixing instructions), then add the other product(s), unless specified otherwise. All mixes should be sprayed immediately and agitated throughout until the spray tank is empty. The user should ensure that all products to be tank-mixed with Zephyr are approved for use on the crops which are to be sprayed. Always check individual product labels for any possible restrictions before making a tank-mix recommendation. Contact Bayer CropScience Limited for full details.
