How it Works
Thiabendazole, a fungicide, controls seed-borne diseases. Carbathiin, a systemic fungicide, penetrates the seed coat
to control diseases of the seed and seedling.
Restrictions
Grazing
:
Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas for four weeks after planting. Do not use treated seed for
food, feed or oil processing.
Environmental Precautions
Crown contains a petroleum distillate, which is moderately to highly toxic to aquatic organisms. Do not contaminate
water during application, cleaning of equipment or disposing of wastes. Any spilled or exposed seed must be
incorporated into the soil or cleaned up from the soil surface.
