How it Works
Clothianidin is a systemic chloronicotinyl insecticide. It protects the seed and developing plant from insect damage.
The fungicides penflufen, trifloxystrobin and metalaxyl provide early season control of seed-borne blackleg and
seed-borne
Alternaria
spp. and provide protection from seed, seedling and soil-borne diseases caused by
Rhizoctonia
solani
,
Fusarium
spp. and
Pythium
spp.
Environmental Precautions
This product is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. This product is also toxic to wild birds and wild mammals when used
as a seed treatment. Do not expose treated seeds on soil surface. Any spilled or exposed seeds should be incorporated
into the soil or otherwise cleaned up from the soil surface. Do not apply directly to water or to areas where surface
water is present. 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 is shallow.
Restrictions
Do not use rape greens and rapeseed grown or harvested from Prosper
EverGol
treated seed for feed or human
consumption. Rapeseed is only for industrial uses and cannot be used for edible oil or any other human/feed
consumption.
