Application Information
Raxil MD is a ready to use formulation designed for commercial or on-farm treating with conventional seed treating
equipment that can accurately control application rates and provide good distribution of the chemical onto the seed in
the mixing chamber.
How it Works
Raxil MD is a systemic fungicide that is absorbed into the germinating seed and transported through the growing
seedling, providing control of seed and seedling diseases.
Restrictions
Grazing
:
Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas for 4 weeks after planting. Do not use for food, feed or oil
processing.
Environmental Precautions
The use of this product 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. Do not contaminate irrigation or drinking water
supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes. Do not expose treated seeds on the soil
surface. Any spilled or exposed seed must be incorporated into the soil or otherwise cleaned up from the soil surface.
