PRODUCT INFORMATION 

ZORVECTM EPTCALTRINTM fungicide is active against selective oomycete diseases listed on this 

label and has preventive, residual, curati ve, eradicati ve and antisporulant activity. ZORVECTM 

EPICALTRIN'rM is locally systemic, translaminar, and moves systemically in the xylem. See 

directions below for specific crop/disease recommendations. 

Mode-of-action 

Oxathiapiprolin, the acti ve ingredient in ZORVECTM EPICALTRINTM, acts as an oxysterol binding 

protein modul ator in fungal cells. 

Cultivar/Varietal Crop Safety 

Not all crops within a crop group, and not all varieties, cultivars or hybrids of crops, have been 

individually tested for crop safety. It is not possible to evaluate for crop safety all applications of 

ZORVECTM EPlCALTRINTM on all crops within a crop group, on all vari eties, cultivars, or hybrids of 

those crops, or under all environmental conditions and growing circumstances. To test for crop safety, 

apply the product in accordance with the label instructions to a small area of the target crop to ensure 

that a phytotoxic response will not occur, especially where the application is a new use of the product 

by the applicator. 

INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT 

DuPont recommends the use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs to control pests. 

ZORVECTM EPICALTRINn.1 may be used as part of an IPM program which can include biological, 

cultural, and genetic practices aimed at preventing economic pest damage. Application of this product 

should be based on IPM principles and practices including field scouting or other detection methods, 

correct target pest identification, population monitoring, and treating when disease forecasting models 

reach locally dete1mined action levels. Consult your state cooperative extension service, professional 

consultants, or other qualified authorities to determine the appropriate management, cultural practice 

and treatment threshold levels for the specific crop, geography and diseases. 

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT 

ZORVECTM EP ALTRINT~1 contains the active ingredient oxathi apiprolin which is novel and is 

cuJTently not listed by the Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC). Oxathiapiprolin inhibits 

the oxystcrol-binding protein (OSBP). Repeated use of products for control of specific plant pathogens 

may lead to selection of resi tant strains of fungi and result in a reduction of disease control. A disease 

management program that includes rotation and/or tank mixing with fungicides with a different mode 

of action is essential to reduce the risk of fungicide resistance development. For guidance on a 

parti cul ar crop and disease control situation, consult your state extension specialist or official state 

recommendations. 

TANK MIXTURES 

Always follow the tank mix instructions of the product label that is most restricti ve. Apply at least the 

minimum labeled rate of each fungicide in the tank mix. 

The crop . afety of all tank mixtures with ZORVECTM EPICALTRJNTM which may include physically 

compatible pesticides, fertilizers, adjuvants, and/or additives, has not been tested. When considering 

the use of a tank mixture on a labeled crop without prior experience, or which is not specifically 

described on ZORVECTllt EPICALTRIN'~' 111 product labeling or in other DuPolll product use 

instructions, it is important to understand crop safety. To test for crop safety prepare a small volume of 

the intended tank mixlllre, apply it to an area of the target crop as directed by both this label and the 

tank mix partner product labels, and observe the treated crop to ensure that a phytotoxic response does 

not occur. DuPont will not be responsible for any crop injury arising from the use of a tank mixture 

3 
that is not specilically esc rib~..- ... un DuPontTM ZORVECTM EPICALTR!~. , . M product labeling or in 

other DuPont product use instructions. 

Some materials including oils, surfactants, adjuvants, and pesticide formulations when applied 

individually, sequentially, or in tank mixtures may solubili ze the plant cuticle, facilitate penetration 

into plant tissue, and increase potential for crop injury. 

Always follow the tank mix instructions of the product label that is the most restrictive. Consult a 

DuPo nt representative o r loca l agricultura l authorities for more information concerning tank mixtures. 

PHYSICAL COMPATIBILITY 

ZORVECTM EPICALTRINTM is physically compatible with many commonly used fungicides, 

herbicides, insecticides, biological control products, liquid fertilizers, non-ionic surfactants, crop oils, 

methylated seed oils and drift control additives. However, since the formulations of products change, 

it is important to test the physical compatibility of desired tank mixes and check for undesirable 

physical effects, including settli ng out or nocculation. To determine physical compatibility, add the 

proportions of the tank mix products and water to a small container, mix thoroughly and allow to stand 

for 20 minutes. If the combinatio n remains mixed, or can be re-mixed readily, it may be considered 

physically compatible.

SOIL APPLICATIONS 

For suppressio n or control of soil borne diseases, as recommended in this label, ZORVECTM 

EPICALTRJNTM must be applied in a manner that ensures the product solution adequately saturates the 

target crop root/crown zone. When applied to the root/crown zone before, during, or soon after sowing 

or transplanting the crop, ZORVECn.1 EPICALTRJNTM will suppress or control certain seedling root 

rot and crown diseases that limit crop stand establishment. 

4 
For soil application, apply ut~Pont M ZORYECTM EPJCALTRlNTM t. ... ng drip application, transplant 

water application (water wheel or continuous stream transplanters), surface band or directed 

application, or in-furrow application. If the application method does not move the product to the target 

root/crown disease zone, the application must be followed with irrigation or cultivation to correctly 

place the product for disease control. 

Drip application 

See Table I , below, and specific drip chemigation instructions under Chemigation. 

Transplant Water application 

Transplants should be adequately watered before transplanting. Ensure transplant water volume is 

sufficient to thoroughly wet the root zone. 

See Table I for Continuous Stream Transplanters. Ensure 4-8 oz transplant water/ transplant 

depending on sandy (4 oz) vs silty soil (6-8 oz). 

For Water Wheel transplanters, use the plant population to determine the rate per plant. 

Example: 38.6 tl oz product/acre x acre/4356 squash plants = 0.00886 fl oz product/squash plant 

Surface Band or Directed application 

Apply in a 4- to 12-inch band. See Table I for rates. Follow appli cation with cultivation or irrigation 

(0.5 - I inch) to move ZORYECTM EPICALTRJNTM to the target disease zone.

Chemigation 

Apply DuPontnt ZORVECTM EPICALTRLNTM only through drip (trickle) or strip tubing inigation 

systems. Do not connect any irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide 

applications to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water 

systems are in place. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for 

human consumption, if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at 

least 25 individuals at least 60 days out of the year. 

See "Required System Safety Devices for All Chemigation and Public Water Systems" at the end of the 

Chemigation section. 

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS 

DRIP (TRICKLE) 

ZORVECn.t EPTCALTRINTM must be applied in a manner that ensures the product is in the root zone. 

ZORVECn.1 EPICALTRfNTM must be in the root zone to provide effective control of target pests. 

ZORVECTM EPICALTRINTM is most effective when it is applied so that the roots are at or near the site of 

application: manage i1Tigation so that significant quantities of ZORVECTM EPICALTRJ NTM remain in the 

root zone. 

I. Do not begin applications until after crop emergence in direct seeded crops. 

2. Do not make applications if soil moisture is below the level required for active plant growth. 

3. This product must be applied unif01mly in the root zone or poor performance may result. Drip tape or 

emitters must be located within or directly adjacent to the root zone. 

4. The d1ip system must be properly designed, free of leaks, and operated in a manner that provides 

uniform application of water throughout the field. 

5. In most situations, this product should be applied during the first 1/3 of the ilTigation cycle, sta11ing just 

after the system has come up to pressure. 

6. The minimum injection period is the time that it takes water to move from the injection point to the 

furthest emitter in the iiTigation zone (propagation time). If this time is not known, it can be calculated 

by measllling the time for a soluble dye to move from the injection point to the farthest emitter. A longer 

injection improves uniformity throughout the zone, but needs to allow for at least an equal period of 

water to nush the system and move the product through the soil. 

7. ZORVECTM EPICALTRfNTM must not be applied at the same time that a drip irrigation line clean out 

product is being used as performance may be reduced. 

Directions for Chemigation: 

Preparation 

A pesticide tank is recommended for the application of ZORVEC"~" 111 EPICALTRINTM in d1ip chemigation 

systems. Thoroughly clean the injection system and tank of any fertilizer or chemicaJ residues using a 

standard clean-out procedure. Dispose of any residues in accordance with State and Federal laws. With the 

mix tank I /4 to 112 full with water and the agitator running, measure the required amount of ZORVECT111 

EPICALTRINTM and add it to the tank. Then add additional water to bring your total pesticide mixture up 

to the desired volume for your application. Note: Always add the ZORVECTM EPICALTRJNT!II to water, 

never put ZORVECTM EPICALTRJNTM into a dry tank or other mixing equipment without first adding 

water. See "Tank Mixing Sequence" section of the container label for tank mixing sequence. Continue to 

agitate the mixture throughout the application process. Usc mechanical or hydraulic agitation; do not use 

air agitation. 

Injection into Chemigation Systems 

Inject the proper amount of ZORVECTM EPICALTRJNTM into the irrigation water flow using a positive 

displacement injection pump or a Venturi injector. Injection should occur at a point in the main inigation 

water now to ensure thorough mixing with the iiTigation water. 

11 
Uniform Water Distribution 

The inigation system used for application of DuPontTM ZORVECTM EPICALTR.INTM must provide for 

uniform distribution of ZORVECTM EPICALTR.INTM treated water. Non-uniform distribution can result in 

crop injury, lack of effectiveness or illegal pesticide residues in or on the crop being treated. Ensure the 

dtip chemigation system is operating properly to uniformly distribute the chemigation application to the 

crop. Contact the equipment manufacturer, the local University Extension agent or other experts if you 

have questions about achieving uniform distribution of the application. 

Monitoring of Chemigation Applications 

A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the 

supervision of a responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should 

the need arise. Wear the personal protective equipment as defined in the PPE section of the label for 

applicators and other handlers when making adjustments or repairs on the chemigation system when 

ZORVECTM EPICALTR.INTM is in the irrigation water. 

Operation 

Start the water pump and let the system achieve the desired pressure before starting the injector. Sta11 the 

injector. When the application is finished, allow the entire inigation and injector system to be thoroughly 

flushed clean before stopping the system. 

Cleaning the System 

Thoroughly clean the injection system and tank of any fettilizer or chemical residues using a standard 

clean-out procedure. Dispose of any residues in accordance with State and Federal laws. Consult your 

owner's manual or your local equipment dealer for cleanout procedures for your injection system. 

Required System Safety Devices and Instructions For All Chemigation and Public Water Systems 

I. The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve and low-pressure drain 

approptiately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. 

2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to 

prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. 

3. The pesticide injection pipeli ne must also contain a functional, nonnally closed, solenoid-operated 

valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent 

fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the inigation system is either automatically or 

manually shut down. 

4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide 

injection pump when the water pump motor stops. 

5. The in·igation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water 

pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely 

affected. 

6. Systems must use a metering device, such as a positive displacement pump or a Venturi injector, that 

provides uniform injection of the product, is effectively designed and constructed of materials 

compatible with the product, and is capable of being fitted with a system interlock. 

7. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure 

zone, backflow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the 

point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should 

be discharged into a reservoir tank ptior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical 

break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank 

of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe 

SPRAY TANK CLEANOUT 

Prior to application, stan with clean, well maintained application equipment. Immediately following 

application, thoroughly clean all spray equipment to reduce the risk of forming hardened deposits which 

might become difficult to remove. 

12 
Drain application equipmem. fhoroughly rinse and flush all applicatio11 equipment with clean water. Take 

all necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. Do not clean near wells, water sources or 

desirable vegetation. Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local regulations. 

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 

The interaction of many equipment and weather-related factors detennines the potential for spray drift. 

The applicator is responsible for considering aJithese factors when making application decisions. 

Avoiding spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator. 

IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE 

The most effective drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets which are consistent with pest 

control objectives. The presence of sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and pest 

pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift control and coverage. Applying larger droplets 

reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable 

environmental conditions. 

A droplet size classification system describes the range of droplet sizes produced by spray nozzles. The 

American Society of AgriculturaJ and Biological Engineers (ASABE) provide a Standard that describes 

droplet size spectrum categories defined by a number of reference nozzles (fine, coarse, etc.). Droplet 

spectra resulting from the use of a specific nozzle may aJso be described in tenns of volume mean 

diameter (VMD). Coarser droplet size spectra have larger VMD's and lower drift potential. 

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE- GROUND APPLICATION 

• Nozzle Type- Select a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, 

naJTower spray angles produce larger droplets. The use of low-drift nozzles will reduce drift potential. 

• Pressure - The lowest spray pressures recommended for the nozzle produce the largest droplets. Higher 

pressure reduces droplet size and does not improve canopy penetration. When higher flow rates are 

needed, using a higher-capacity nozzle instead of increasing pressure results in the coarsest droplet 

spectrum. 

• Flow Rate/Orifice Size- Using the highest flow rate nozzles (largest orifice) that are consistent with pest 

control objectives reduces the potential for spray drift. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce coarser 

droplet spectra. 

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE - AIRCRAFT 

• Nozzle Type- Solid stream, or other low drift nozzles produce the coarsest droplet spectra. 

• Number of Nozzles- Using the minimum number of nozzles with the highest flow rate that provide 

unifonn coverage will produce a coarser droplet spectmm 

• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles in a manner that minimizes the effects of air shear will produce 

the coarsest droplet spectra. For some nozzles such as solid stream, pointing the nozzles straight back 

parallel to the airstream will produce a coarser droplet spectrum than other oriemations. 

• Pressure- Selecting the pressure that produces the coarsest droplet spectmm for a particular nozzle and 

airspeed reduces spray drift potential. For some nozzle types such as solid streams, lower pressures can 

produce fi ner droplet spectra and increase drift potential 

BOOM LENGTH (AIRCRAFT), AND APPLICATION HEIGHT 

• Boom Length (aircraft) - Using shorter booms decreases drift potential. Boom lengths are expressed as a 

percentage of an aircraft's wingspan or a helicopter's rotor blade diameter. Shorter boom length and 

proper positioning can minimize drift caused by wingtip or rotor vortices. 

• Application Height (aircraft)- Applications made at the lowest height that are consistent with pest 

comrol objectives and the safe operation of the aircraft will reduce the potential for spray drift. 

• Application Height (ground) - Applications made at the lowest height consistent with pest control 

objectives, and that allow the applicator to keep the boom level with the application site and minimize 

13 
bounce, will reduce the exposu . .; of spray droplets to evaporation and win..~, and reduce spray drift 

potential. 

WIND 

Drift potential is lowest when applications <u-e made in light to gentle sustained winds (2- 10 mph), which 

are blowing in a constant direction. Many factors, including droplet size and equipment type also 

detem1ine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID GUSTY OR WlNDLESS CONDITIONS. 

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY 

Setting up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for droplet evaporation can reduce spray 

drift potential. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry. 

SURFACE TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS 

Drift potential is high during a surface temperature inversion. Su1face inversions restrict vertical air 

mixing, which may cause small suspended droplets to remain close to the ground and move laterally in a 

concentrated cloud. Surface inversions are characte1ized by increasing temperature with altitude and are 

common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and 

often continue into the moming. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas. 

Inversions may also be identified by producing smoke and observing its behavior. Smoke that remain 

close to the ground, or moves laterally in a concentrated cloud under low wind conditions indicates a 

surface inversion. Smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vettical air mixing. 

SHIELDED SPRAYERS 

Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility 

of the applicator to verify that the shields are minimizing drift potential, and not interfering with uniform 

deposition of the product. 

AIR ASSISTED (AIR BLAST) FIELD CROP SPRAYERS 

Air assisted fi eld crop sprayers carry droplets to the target via a downward directed air stream. Some may 

reduce the potential for drift, but if a sprayer is unsuitable for the application anclfor set up improperly, 

high drift potential can result. It is the responsibility of the applicator to determine that a sprayer is 

suitable for the intended application, that it is configured properly, and that drift potential has been 

minimized. 

Note: Air assisted field sprayers can affect product perforrpance by affecting spray coverage and canopy 

penetration. Read the specific crop use and application equipment instructions to determine if an air 

assisted field crop sprayer can be used. 

SENSITIVE AREAS 

Making applications when there is a sustained wind moving away from adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., 

residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is 

an effective way to minimize the effect of spray drift. 

DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVLES 

Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is 

used, read and carefully observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additive's label. lf 

using an additive that increases viscosity, ensure that the nozzles and other application equipment will 

function properly with a viscous spray solution. Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the 

Council of Producers and Distributors of Agrotechnology
