PRODUCT INFORMATION

Ascernity is a broad-spectrum product containing two fungicides. It has preventative, systemic and curative properties. Ascernity provides excellent disease control of many major turfgrass diseases. Ascernity may be applied as a foliar spray and integrated into a resistance management program. All applications should be made according to the
use directions that follow.

USE RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS

DO NOT apply more than 2.0 fl oz of Ascernity per 1,000 sq ft per year (88 fl oz ascernity per acre per year).

DO NOT apply within 15 feet of any golf course water body.

DO NOT apply by air.

DO NOT apply through irrigation systems (chemigation).

DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond area intended for application. Conditions which may contribute to drift include thermal inversion, wind speed and direction, sprayer nozzle/pressure combinations, spray droplet size, etc. Contact your State extension agent for spray drift prevention guidelines in your area.

AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.Ascernity Page 7

USE INFORMATION

Application : Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control. Make no more spray solution than is needed for application. For control of foliar diseases, allow Ascernity to completely dry prior to irrigating. For control of soil borne diseases Ascernity can be watered in after application.

Adjuvants: When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Syngenta recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant.

Efficacy: Under certain conditions conducive to extended infection periods, use another registered fungicide for additional applications if the maximum amount of Ascernity has been used. If isolates resistant to Group 3 or Group 7 fungicides are present, efficacy can be reduced for certain diseases. The higher rates in the rate range and/or shorter spray intervals may be required under conditions of heavy infection pressure with highly susceptible varieties, or when environmental conditions are
conducive to disease.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Ascernity should be integrated into an overall disease and pest management strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Sound turf management resulting in healthy, vigorous turf is the foundation of a good IPM program. Cultural practices such as proper choice of turf variety, nutrient management, proper cutting height, thatch management, and proper watering, drainage, and moisture stress management should be integrated with the use of fungicides to increase turf vigor and reduce the susceptibility to disease. Immunoassay detection kits and extension service diagnostic services can assist in the early and accurate identification of causal organisms and corresponding selection of the proper fungicide when required.

Resistance Management

Ascernity contains two fungicides – benzovindiflupyr, an SDHI fungicide in Group 7 and difenoconazole, a triazole fungicide in Group 3. Fungal pathogens can develop resistance to products with the same mode of action when used repeatedly. Because resistance development cannot be predicted, use of this product should conform to resistance management strategies established for the crop and use area. Consult your local or State agricultural authorities for resistance management strategies that are complementary to those in this label. Resistance management strategies may include rotating with products having different modes of action or limiting the total number of applications per season. Syngenta encourages responsible resistance management to ensure effective long-term control of the fungal diseases on this label. Ascernity should not be alternated or tank mixed with any fungicide to which resistance has already developed.

Some turf disease pathogens are known to have developed resistance to products used repeatedly for their control. Ascernity should be alternated with other registeredAscernity Page 8

fungicides that have a different mode of action and to which pathogen resistance has not developed. Since Ascernity is an SDHI fungicide (Group 7 fungicide) and a DMI fungicide (Group 3 fungicide), avoid alternation with other SDHI and DMI fungicides.

Turfgrass Tolerance: Ascernity plant tolerance has been found to be safe for all turfgrass species on the label; however, not all possible tank-mix combinations have been tested under all conditions. When possible, test the combinations on a small portion of the turf to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application.

Spray Drift Management: To avoid spray drift, do not apply when conditions favor drift beyond the target area. The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE
APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE
GROWER.

MIXING AND APPLICATION METHODS

Spray Equipment

Nozzles

x Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application.

x Nozzles should be the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom.

x Calibrate sprayer before use.

x It is suggested that screens be used to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging.

x Screens placed on suction side of pump should be 16-mesh or coarser

.

x Do not place a screen in the recirculation line.

x Use 50-mesh or coarser screens between the pump and boom, and where required, at the nozzles.

x Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations.

Pump

x Use a pump with capacity to: 1. Maintain 35-40 psi at nozzles. 2. Provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension - this requires recirculation of 10% of tank volume per minute.

x Use a jet agitator or liquid sparge tube for agitation.

x Do not air sparge.

For more information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer manufacturers and state recommendations. For specific local directions and spray schedules, consult the current state agricultural recommendations.Ascernity Page 9

Mixing Instructions

To prepare spray solution, partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation. Add the specified amount of Ascernity to the tank, allowing time for good dispersion, then add an adjuvant, if recommended. If tank mixes are required, product should be added to the spray tank in the following order: WG or dry flowable formulations, wettable powders and flowable (aqueous suspensions) products. Finish filling the tank to the desired volume to obtain the proper spray concentration. Maintain agitation throughout the spraying operation. Do not allow spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods. Make up only the amount of spray required for immediate use. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned immediately after application. Do not use silicone based products with Ascernity due to possible phytotoxicity.

If spray-tank mixture is unsprayed for more than 18 hours (overnight), re-suspend product with agitation for 20 minutes.

x Ascernity is an SL (Soluble Liquid) formulation.

x Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation.

x Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product.

x Agitate the spray solution before and during application.

x Rinse spray tank thoroughly with clean water after each day’s use and dispose of pesticide rinsate by application to an already treated area.

Ascernity Alone (No Tank Mix)

x Add 1⁄2- Ҁ of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.

x With the agitator running, add Ascernity to the tank.

x Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.

x Begin application of the spray solution after Ascernity has completely dispersed
into the mix water.

x Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed.

Ascernity + Tank Mixtures: Ascernity is usually compatible with many tank-mix partners registered for use on turf.

If tank mixes are desired, observe all directions, precautions, and limitations on labeling of all products used. Consult compatibility charts or your local or state turf authority for compatibility information. Do not combine Ascernity in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants, or fertilizers; unless compatibility charts or your own prior use has shown that the combination is physically compatible, effective, and non-injurious under your
conditions of use.

To determine the physical compatibility of Ascernity with other products, use a jar test. Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to 1 qt. of water. Add wettable powders and water dispersible granular products first, then liquid flowables, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let stand for at least 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be remixed readily, it is physicallyAscernity Page 10

compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same procedure for adding required ingredients to the spray tank.

Mixing in the Spray Tank

x Add 1⁄2- Ҁ of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.

x With the agitator running, add the tank-mix partner(s) into the tank in the same
order as described above.

x Allow the material to completely dissolve and disperse into the mix water. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water and Ascernity to the spray tank.

x Allow Ascernity to completely disperse.

x Spray the mixture with the agitator running.

Application Instructions

Ascernity may be applied with all types of spray equipment commonly used for making ground applications. Proper adjustments and calibration of spraying equipment to give good coverage is essential for good disease control.

Ground Application

x Apply in sufficient water to provide good coverage. Typical application volumes range from 30 to 175 gallons of spray per acre.

x Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control.Ascernity Page 11
