Application Information
How to Apply
:
Ground sprayers, aerial application or by pivot or sprinkle irrigation. Do not apply registered tank
mixes listed above in potato, chickpea and canola with pivot or sprinkler irrigation.
Water volume:
Ground: 40 L/acre minimum except for potatoes and sugar beet where 80 L/acre minimum is
recommended. Aerial: 20 L/acre minimum. Do not apply more than 0.16 L/acre of Headline EC by aerial application.
Chemigation: application must be made without the use of end guns.
Application Tips
Good coverage is essential for effective disease control and higher water volumes tend to increase performance with
dense canopies. Headline EC works best if it is applied in a preventative manner and performs best if applied in a
regularly scheduled protective spray program. Do not apply more than 1 application of this product before alternating
to a fungicide with an alternative mode of action.
How it Works
Headline EC has a protective effect because it inhibits spore germination and a curative effect due to the inhibition of
mycelial growth and sporulation of the fungus on the leaf surface. Headline is systemic within the leaf. Headline
applied to the top surface of the leaf binds tightly in the waxy cuticle and also moves to the lower surface where it
provides dual-sided protection against disease entry.

zones specified on the label.
