Application Information
How to Apply
:
Ground and aerial application.
Water Volume
:
Ground: 80 L/acre. Aerial: 16 - 20 L/acre.
Application Tips
Good coverage is essential for effective disease control. Any reduction in water volume can reduce disease control.
How it Works
Partially systemic. Propiconazole is transported upwards in plants. It has both preventative and curative activity.
Length of control will vary from 3 - 4 weeks depending on disease, crop and environmental conditions. Strongly
absorbed by most soils.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
If rainfall occurs within one hour of application, re-application is necessary.
Grazing
:
Do not graze animals on treated green crops within three days of application. Do not feed straw from crops
treated with herbicide tank mixes to livestock.
Pre-harvest Intervals
:
Wheat, barley and oats: 45 days. Canola: 60 days. Beans: 28 days. Timothy: 14 days. Corn:
30
days (field corn harvested for forage), 14 days (sweet corn). See label for pre-harvest intervals when tank mixing
with a herbicide or an insecticide.
