   * Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticides get inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
   * Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
For Terrestrial Uses:  Do not apply directly to water or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift or runoff from treated areas.
GENERAL INFORMATION
CX-9032 is a broad-spectrum preventative biofungicide/bactericide for control or suppression of fungal and bacterial plant diseases.  The active ingredient of CX-9032 is a naturally occurring strain (D747) of the beneficial bacterium Bacillus subtilis var. amyloliquefaciens.  CX-9032 kills pathogenic organisms on foliage and other plant parts by producing antibiotic compounds (iturins) which disrupt pathogen cell wall production.  CX-9032 also colonizes plant root hairs, preventing establishment of disease-causing fungi and bacteria.
CX-9032 can be applied alone or in combination and/or rotation with chemical fungicides as a tool for integrated disease management in agricultural crops, ornamental and nursery plants, and turfgrass.  CX-9032 offers a valuable tool for management of resistance to chemical fungicides through its multiple and unique modes of action.
CX-9032 is exempt from the requirement for residue tolerance and therefore can be applied up to and including the day of harvest.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the State or Tribal agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard 40 CFR Part 170. This standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE), and restricted entry intervals. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of 4 hours.
PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil or water is: coveralls, waterproof gloves, shoes plus socks.
Exception: If the product is soil injected or soil incorporated, the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything that has been treated.

MIXING AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
Mix the required amount of CX-9032 in water with sufficient agitation to maintain a uniform suspension in the spray or mixing tank.  Tank should be cleaned prior to use.   Do not use highly alkaline or highly acidic water to mix sprays.  Use a buffering agent if necessary to maintain neutrality (pH 6 to 8) of water in the tank. Maintain agitation during application.  Apply immediately after mixing; do not allow spray mix to stand overnight.
CX-9032 can be mixed and used with other agricultural chemicals for which such mixing is permitted by the product labels, in accordance with the most restrictive of those label limitations and precautions.  If such a mixture is planned, a compatibility "jar test" should first be conducted by mixing the correct proportions of CX-9032 and these products in a small volume of water.
APPLICATION METHODS
Ground:  CX-9032 can be applied in most commonly-used ground application equipment, such as (but not limited to): tractor-mounted boom, airblast, high clearance, hose-end, backpack, and other pressurized sprayers; hose-end or hand-held sprayers; foggers or mist blowers; water wheel and other drench applicators; and shank or other soil injection method.  
Aerial:  CX-9032 can be applied by fixed or rotary winged aircraft in a minimum of 3 gallons of water per acre.  Standard precautions should be taken to minimize spray drift.
Chemigation: CX-9032 can be applied through drip (trickle) and sprinkler type irrigation equipment.  Refer to the section entitled "Chemigation Instructions" for detailed instructions.

Footnotes:
*Suppression only; for improved control mix or rotate with chemical fungicide approved for such use.
[1] Tank mix or rotate with copper-based fungicides at label rates for improved control.
[2]Apply at or immediately following planting (but before plant emergence) as a banded seedline treatment 4 to 6 inches wide.  Make second application at thinning or cultivation in sufficient water and multiple nozzles to ensure thorough coverage of lower leaves and surrounding soil surface.  Incorporation with light irrigation after application may improve disease control.  Repeat at 10-14 day intervals if conditions promoting disease persist.
3 For greasy spot suppression, apply at first new foliar flush and repeat with each new flush.  Tank mix with spray oil or copper based fungicide at labeled rates.
4 For suppression of citrus scab, start applications at first new foliage flush and repeat at petal fall and when fruit are (1/2) inch in diameter.
[5] Make first application at or before tight cluster if conditions favor disease development.  Repeat at 7-10 day intervals through the second cover spray or longer on susceptible varieties or if environmental conditions favor rapid disease development.
6 Begin applications before bloom when environmental conditions favor disease development, repeating at 7 to 14 day intervals or as needed.  Control may be enhanced by addition of a surfactant to improve spray coverage.  Use only surfactants known to be safe for use on the crop and for which such use is allowed.
[7]Rotate with antibiotics registered for fire blight control for improved performance.  Begin applications at 1-5% open blossoms and repeat every 3-7 days as necessary until petal fall, when intervals can be increased to 7 days. CX-9032 can also be used in summer "cover spray" applications to control the shoot blight phase of fire blight and summer diseases. Can be mixed with copper fungicides to improve control.
[8]Make first application at popcorn stage and repeat every 7 days.
[9] Start applying at early bloom stage and repeat every 7 days through petal fall.
[10] Pre-harvest applications in sufficient water to cover fruit or other harvested plant parts may improve control of postharvest infections.
[11] Begin applications at or before pistillate bloom, repeating every 7-10 days.  Apply before rainfall if possible, and tank mix or rotate with a copper-based bactericide registered for such use for improved control.
[1][2] Start applications at or just before flowering and repeat every 7-10 days as needed through harvest.
[13] Apply before fall rains and again during dormancy before spring growth.
[1][4] Start applications when new shoots are (1/2) to 1(1/2) inches long.  Repeat at 3-5 inches, 8-10 inches, and then at 7-10 day intervals until disease conditions no longer exist. 
[1][5] Apply at bloom, before bunch closure, at veraison, and before harvest.
[1][6] Apply when shoots are (1/2) to 1 inch long and again when 6-8 inches long.
[1][7] Mix 2 fluid ounces CX-9032 per gallon of water and apply to pruning wounds. 
[1][8] Apply at budbreak and repeat on 14-21 day interval as needed through harvest.
[1][9] Apply at flowering and repeat on 14-21 day interval as needed through harvest
[20] Apply at first appearance of leaves and repeat at 7-21 day intervals as needed, in sufficient water to obtain thorough coverage of foliage.  Tank mix with spray oil or other registered fungicides for improved control.
[21] Mix 6 to10 fluid ounces CX-9032 per 100 gallons of water and apply in minimum of 20 gallons per acre form emergence to training, 50 gallons per acre from training to wire, and 100 gallons per acre from wire touch through harvest.
[2][2] For treatment of horseradish or strawberry roots immediately before transplanting:  immerse bare roots (individually or in bunches) for 10 seconds in a suspension of 1 to 2 pints CX-9032 per gallon of water.
Foliar application:  For control of diseases on foliage, flowers, fruit, or other above-ground parts of plants:  Mix CX-9032 in water and apply as a spray at a rate of 0.5 to 6 quarts of CX-9032 per acre in sufficient water to achieve thorough coverage of the crop canopy with minimal runoff.  Begin applications at crop emergence, transplanting, or when conditions are conducive to development of disease.  Repeat application every 3 to 10 days, or as needed, for as long as conditions favor disease development.  Lower rates (0.5 to 3 quarts per acre) may be applied under light disease pressure, to smaller (e.g. newly-emerged) plants, or when CX-9032 is used in a tank mix with other fungicides whose labels allow such use.  Under moderate to severe disease pressure, or when environmental conditions and plant stage are conducive to rapid disease development, use higher label rates (3-6 quarts/acre), apply more frequently (every 3-7 days), and mix or rotate CX-9032 with other fungicides for improved performance. 
Soil application: For control of soilborne diseases infecting seeds, seedlings, roots, crown, stems, or other plant parts below ground or in contact with soil:   Apply CX-9032 at 0.5 to 4.5 pints per acre.  Mix the required amount in sufficient water to apply by one of the following methods:
*     Soil drench applied to transplants in flats or pots in the greenhouse or nursery any time prior to transplanting (see additional drench instructions under "Nurseries, greenhouses, shade houses, and ornamental plants" below).
*     Soil drench at transplanting, using a "water wheel" injector, spray nozzles/hoses, or other method to drench each root ball and/or planting hole.  
*     Soil or seedline drench, or banded spray (in-furrow) at planting.  See the section on "Banded (in-furrow) application" below for additional instructions.
Follow-up (post-planting) preventative applications can be made every 2-4 weeks by one or more of the following methods, if needed:
*     Drip (trickle) or any type of sprinkler irrigation, any time after planting or transplanting.   See Chemigation Instructions for additional information.
*     Spray directly onto the soil surface and/or lower plant parts.  If targeting root disease, follow immediately with sufficient overhead sprinkler irrigation to move CX-9032 to the root zone.  
*     Injection directly into the rooting zone using shanks or similar equipment.  
Lower rates (0.5 to 2 pints of CX-9032
per acre) may be applied under light disease pressure, to smaller plants, or when CX-9032 is used in a tank mix with other fungicides whose labels allow such use.  Under moderate to severe disease pressure, or when environmental conditions and plant stage are conducive to rapid disease development, use higher label rates (2 - 4.5 pints per acre), apply more frequently (every 2 weeks), and mix or rotate CX-9032 with other fungicides for improved performance.

Banded (in-furrow) application:  Use the table below (rate CX-9032 per acre) to determine the correct application rate in fluid ounces per 1,000 row feet based on row spacing and desired rate per acre. Mix the required amount of CX-9032 in water and apply as banded spray (4" to 6" wide) or seedline drench centered over the planting furrow.  Apply directly over seeds in the furrow just before they are covered with soil.  The volume of water required per acre or per 1,000 row feet will depend on the application equipment used.  Consult your local cooperative extension service if you need assistance calibrating band spraying equipment.  

                                       
                                       
                                       
                                       
Nurseries, greenhouses, shadehouses, and ornamental plants
Spray application:  Mix 0.5 to 6 quarts of CX-9032 per 100 gallons of water and apply as a foliar spray of sufficient volume to wet the entire plant with minimal runoff.  Begin preventative applications at plant emergence and repeat every 3-28 days as needed (every 3-7 days if disease pressure is high or environmental conditions are highly favorable to disease outbreak, 10-28 days under low pressure or less conducive conditions).
Drench application:  Mix 0.5 to 4.5 pints of CX-9032 per 100 gallons of water and apply as a drench or coarse spray to soil or other growing media in pots, flats, plugs, trays, or planting beds, for control or suppression of soilborne diseases of seedlings, cuttings, bedding plants, and transplants (including vegetables and other transplanted food crops).  Make first application at or immediately before seeding, sticking, germination, or transplanting.  Repeat applications every 14-28 days as needed.  Transplants can be treated immediately before transplanting into field soils to protect against damping-off and other diseases that reduce plant establishment. 
Cutting or root dip:  Dip basal end of cuttings or bare roots (individually or in bunches) in a suspension of 1 to 2 pints of CX-9032 per gallon of water.  Immerse for 5-10 seconds immediately before planting.
Chemigation:  Mix 0.5 to 4.5 pints of CX-9032 per 100 gallons of water and apply via drip, handheld, or sprinkler irrigation systems.  Refer to "Chemigation Instructions" for more details.

CHEMIGATION INSTRUCTIONS
General information:
  Apply this product only through drip (trickle) irrigation (including micro-irrigation through spaghetti tubes or individual tubes) or sprinkler irrigation (including impact or microsprinklers, microjet, overhead boom, water gun, solid set, lateral move, end tow, side-roll, center pivot, or hand move, including mist-type systems); or with hand-held calibrated irrigation equipment (such as a hand-held wand with injector).  Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.
  Crop injury or lack of effectiveness can result from non-uniform distribution of treated water.
  If you have questions about calibration, contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts.
  Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
  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.
  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 daily at least 60 days out of the year.
  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 prior 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.
  The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection.
  The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally 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 irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
  The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
  Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
  Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. 
  Remove scale, pesticide residues, and other foreign matter from the chemical supply tank and injector system and flush with clean water before use.  Failure to provide a clean tank, free of scale or residues may reduce effectiveness of this product.
Drip (trickle) and micro-irrigation chemigation
1. The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve and low pressure drain appropriately 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 pipeline must also contain a functional, normally 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 irrigation 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 irrigation 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 pump such as a positive displacement injection pump (i.e., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
7. Dilute the product in water following the label mixing directions.  It may be premixed in a supply tank with water, fertilizer, or other appropriate tank-mixed agricultural chemicals.  Agitation is necessary.  Apply to moderately moist soils.  Use volumes that thoroughly wet the soil but that do not cause significant runoff or excessive drip from pots.  Application should be continuous in sufficient water to apply the recommended rate evenly to the entire treated area.

GENERAL INFORMATION
CX-9032 is a broad-spectrum preventative biofungicide/bactericide for control or suppression of fungal and bacterial plant diseases.  The active ingredient of CX-9032 is a naturally occurring strain (D747) of the beneficial bacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.  CX-9032 kills pathogenic organisms on foliage and other plant parts by producing antibiotic compounds (iturins) which disrupt pathogen cell wall production.  CX-9032 also colonizes plant root hairs, preventing establishment of disease-causing fungi and bacteria.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.  Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift.  Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.  For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the State or Tribal agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
Mixing instructions:
CX-9032 must be mixed with water and applied as a spray to fruit and foliage, or as a drench to plant roots.  See below for specific mix rate information.
Application rates and methods:
Spray application for control of powdery mildews, leaf spots, anthracnose, gray mold, and other diseases affecting leaves, flowers, fruit, and other above-ground plant parts of ornamental home garden plants:  Mix 1 teaspoon of CX-9032 per gallon of water and apply directly to plants using a hand pump sprayer or other suitable spray equipment.  Spray just enough to wet all leaves and fruit with minimal run-off or dripping. Total coverage depends on the size of plants to be sprayed and the type of sprayer used. Repeat as needed to maintain disease control, typically every 7-10 days.  If disease is prevalent or environmental conditions such as high humidity favor disease outbreak, increase the mixing rate to 1 tablespoon per gallon and shorten the interval between sprays to every 3-7 days.  
Drench application for control of diseases affecting plant roots, tubers, or other parts of ornamental plants in contact with soil in the home garden:  Mix 1 teaspoon of CX-9032 per gallon of water and apply to the soil by one of the following methods:
   1. For potted plants (indoors or outdoors), apply in sufficient water to wet the entire root mass using a watering can or tank-fed watering wand.  Do not water plants again until 24 hours after application.  Alternatively, use a hand-pump or other sprayer to spray the mixture on the soil surface in each pot, then immediately apply sufficient water to move the product into the roots.
   2. Drench the roots of transplants with approx. 4 fluid ounces of the mixture immediately before transplanting into pots or garden soil.  Allow to soak into the root ball before transplanting.
   3. For outdoor-grown plants, use a watering can or sprayer to drench the soil in the planting furrow or transplant hole immediately before planting or transplanting. The amount of water required will depend on the size of the hole or length of furrow.
   4. Alternatively, apply in the first watering after planting or transplanting, either by mixing directly into the water at the rate indicated above, or by spraying onto the soil surface at the base of each plant and immediately watering in with a watering can, hose, sprinkler, or other watering device.
CX-9032 can be applied up to and including the day of harvest.
For application to lawns and other turfgrass areas:  Mix 1 teaspoon of CX-9032 per gallon of water and apply as a fine spray to the surface of the lawn or grass area.  Total amount of mix required will depend on the type of sprayer used and area to be covered, but typically 2 to 5 gallons of spray mix may be required per 1,000 square feet of turf.  CX-9032 can be "watered in" for control of soilborne root and crown diseases by thorough watering immediately after application either with sprinklers or by spraying just before or during light rain.
