Application Information
Insure Cereal is a ready-to-use seed treatment formulation for use in commercial seed treatment plants and for
use in on-farm standard gravity flow or mist type treatment machines. Insure Cereal can also be used in “On the
Go” air seeder treatment systems. When used at the recommended rate of 300 mL/100 kg seed, no additional dyes
or dilutions with water are needed unless recommended by the manufacturer of the seed treatment application
equipment.
How it Works
The active ingredients in Insure Cereal are pyraclostrobin, triticonazole and metalaxyl. Pyraclostrobin is a strobularin
fungicide that provides systemic broad spectrum activity against seed- and soil-borne diseases. Triticonazole is a
triazole fungicide that provides systemic broad spectrum protection against seed- and soil-borne diseases. Metalaxyl
is a phenylamide fungicide with systemic activity against seed and seedling diseases caused by oomycete fungi.
Restrictions
Do not use treated seed for food, feed or oil processing.
Environmental Precautions
Insure Cereal is toxic to birds and wildlife. Ensure proper soil incorporation of the seeds. If treated seed is spilled
outdoors or in areas accessible to birds, promptly clean up or bury to prevent ingestion. Ensure proper disposal of any
surplus treated seed not intended for later planting. Do not contaminate domestic or irrigation water supplies, lakes,
streams, ponds or any body of water with the chemical, used containers, treated seed or bags that have held treated
seed. Do not contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
Leaching
:
The use of this chemical may result in contamination of groundwater, particularly in areas where soils are
permeable (e.g. sandy soil) and/or the depth to the water table is shallow.
Toxicity
Low toxicity. Acute oral LD
50
(
rats) = >2,000 mg/kg rats. Acute dermal LC
50
(
rats) = >2,000 mg/kg.
Storage
Store in original container. Store in an area away from food, feed stuffs, fertilizers and seed. Protect from frost and
freezing.
