PRODUCT INFORMATION

A15457LG is a broad-spectrum fungicide. It has preventative, systemic and curative properties. A15457LG provides excellent disease control of many major turfgrass and ornamental diseases. A15457LG may be applied and integrated into a resistance management program. All applications should be made according to the use directions that follow.

USE INFORMATION

Application : Thorough coverage of foliage is necessary to provide good disease control. Make no more spray solution than is needed for application. For control offoliar diseases, allow A15457LG to completely dry prior to irrigating. For control of soilborne diseases A15457LG can be applied to turfgrass and watered in after application or applied by directed spray or drench application to ornamental crops.

Adjuvants: When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Syngenta recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant and is approved for use in turfgrass or ornamental crops.

Efficacy: Under certain conditions conducive to extended infection periods, use another registered fungicide for additional applications if the maximum amount of A15457LG has been used. If isolates resistant to Group 7 fungicides are present, efficacy can be reduced for certain diseases. The shorter spray intervals may beA15457LG Page 8

required under conditions of heavy infection pressure with highly susceptible varieties, or when environmental conditions are conducive to disease.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

A15457LG should be integrated into an overall disease and pest management strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Sound pest management resulting in healthy, vigorous plants is the foundation of a good IPM program. Cultural practices such as proper choice of varieties; nutrient management; proper cutting height (for turfgrass); thatch management (for turfgrass); and proper watering, drainage, and moisture stress management should be integrated with the use of fungicides to increase plant 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

A15457LG contains benzovindiflupyr, an SDHI fungicide in Group 7. 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. A15457LG should not be alternated or tank mixed with any fungicide to which resistance has already developed.

Some turf and ornamental disease pathogens are known to have developed resistance to products used repeatedly for their control. A15457LG should be alternated with other registered fungicides that have a different mode of action and to which pathogen resistance has not developed. Since A15457LG is an SDHI fungicide (Group 7 fungicide), avoid alternation with other SDHI fungicides.

As part of a resistance management strategy:

x Apply no more than 2 sequential applications to ornamental crops and landscape plants unless otherwise stated.

x Apply no more than 3 sequential applications to turfgrass unless otherwise stated.

x When tank-mixing or alternating, use an effective partner – one that provides satisfactory disease control when used alone at the mixture rate.

x Apply early in the crop production cycle to minimize fungal pressure from listed diseases.

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-relatedA15457LG Page 9

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 the recommend psi for the nozzles being used to apply the spray mixture. 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.

Mixing Instructions

To prepare spray solution, partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation. Add the specified amount of A15457LG 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 A15457LG due to possible phytotoxicity. IfA15457LG Page 10

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

x A15457LG is an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) 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.

A15457LG 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 A15457LG to the tank.

x Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.

x Begin application of the spray solution after A15457LG has completely dispersed into the mix water.

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

A15457LG + Tank Mixtures: A15457LG is usually compatible with many tank-mix partners registered for use on the listed use site.

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 or ornamental crop authority for compatibility information. Do not combine A15457LG 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 A15457LG 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 physically 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 A15457LG to the spray tank.

x Allow A15457LG to completely disperse.

x Spray the mixture with the agitator running.A15457LG Page 11

Application Instructions

A15457LG may be applied with all types of spray equipment commonly used for making ground, foliar and aerial applications. Proper adjustments and calibration of spraying equipment to give good coverage is essential for good disease control.

Application through Irrigation Systems (Chemigation) – Ornamentals Only

x Apply this product only through center pivot, solid set, overhead boom, hand move, moving wheel irrigation systems, ebb and flow and drip or micro irrigation equipment. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.

x Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of treated water.

x Excessive water may reduce efficacy.

x If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts.

x Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used forpesticide application to a public water system, unless the pesticide labelprescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.

x A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.

Operating Instructions

x The system must contain a functional check-valve, vacuum relief valve, and lowpressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent watersource contamination from backflow.

x The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quickclosing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.

ORNAMENTALS

A15457LG is for control of listed foliar and root diseases of ornamental plants. A15457LG may be applied to container, bench, flat, plug, liner, bed or field-grown ornamentals crops in greenhouses, shade-houses, lath houses, outdoor nurseries, and retail nurseries. A15457LG may also be applied to ornamental plants in commercial landscapes.

A15457LG applications should begin prior to disease development and continue throughout the season at listed use rates and specified intervals following resistance management guidelines. A15457LG works best when used as part of a preventative disease management program.

Apply A15457LG as a foliar broadcast or directed spray application. Apply foliar applications in sufficient water to ensure complete coverage of the target plant for best control. Repeat applications at specified intervals.

A15457LG may be applied to control soilborne, seedling, and crown diseases of production ornamentals as a preventative, directed spray or drench treatment prior to infection. Good coverage of the pre-infection area (root zone, root ball, crown, etc.) is necessary for satisfactory control. Apply directed sprays and drench applications prior to infection as healthy roots are necessary to optimize disease protection.

For resistance management, do not make more than two sequential drench applications of A15457LG before alternating with a fungicide of a different mode of action.

Caution should be taken before making application of A15457LG as a drench to small bedding plants in the seedling/plug stage due to possible phytotoxicity. A limited quantity of plants should be tested prior to full-scale application.

Use of A15457LG as a "rescue" (late curative or eradicant) treatment may not always result in satisfactory disease control.

Plant Safety

Plant safety has been found to be acceptable for many ornamental crops; however, not all possible plant species and varieties have been tested under all conditions. It is recommended to test A15457LG alone and with any mixtures on a small portion of the crop to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur.A15457LG Page 17
