For the control of downy and powdery mildew in grapevines.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
RESTRAINTS:
DO NOT use by aerial application in grapevines.
DO NOT apply CABRIO WG Fungicide if waterbodies, watercourses or wetlands are within 10 metres downwind of the application area.

GRAPEVINES
Disease: Downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola), powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) 
Rate: 
Dilute spray 50 g plus 10 mL non-ionic surfactant/100 L water
Concentrate spray: Refer to the “Application” section.
WHP (Days): 21
Critical Comments: Also see ‘CAUTION’ section re export commodities.
Apply up to three sprays per season as part of a complete disease control programme.
Ideally, apply in a block of three sprays at 10 to 14 day intervals, commencing at flowering. Use the shorter intervals under conditions favouring disease infection.
Apply by dilute or concentrate spraying equipment.
Apply the same total amount of product to the target crop whether applying this product by dilute or concentrate spraying methods.
This use is subject to a CropLife resistance management strategy.

NOT TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE, OR IN ANY MANNER, CONTRARY TO THIS LABEL UNLESS AUTHORISED UNDER APPROPRIATE LEGISLATION.

WITHHOLDING PERIODS:
HARVEST:
GRAPES - DO NOT HARVEST FOR 21 DAYS AFTER APPLICATION

MIXING
To ensure even mixing, half-fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required amount of product.
If required, add compatible products and agitate thoroughly, then add the remainder of the water. Agitate again before spraying commences. If tank mixing with other water dispersible granule (WG) or wettable powder (WP) formulations, ensure they are mixed in well before adding emulsifiable concentrate (EC) or suspension concentrate (SC) products. WP formulations should be pre-mixed separately prior to adding to the spray tank.

APPLICATION
Grapevines:
Dilute Spraying
- Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the crop being sprayed.
- Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy. Apply sufficient water to cover the crop to the point of run-off. Avoid excessive run-off.
- The required water volume may be determined by applying different test volumes using different settings on the sprayer, from industry guidelines or expert advice.
- Add the amount of product specified in the Directions for Use table for each 100 L of water. Spray to the point of run-off.
- The required dilute spray volume will change and the sprayer set up and operation may also need to be changed as the crop grows.
Concentrate Spraying
- Use a sprayer designed and set up for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of run-off) and matched to the crop being sprayed.
- Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy using your chosen water volume.
- Determine an appropriate dilute spray volume (See Dilute Spraying above) for the crop canopy. This is needed to calculate the concentrate mixing rate.
- The mixing rate for concentrate spraying can then be calculated in the following way:
EXAMPLE ONLY
Dilute spray volume as determined above: For example 1500 L/ha Your chosen concentrate spray volume: For example 500 L/ha
The concentration factor in this example is: 3 X (i.e. 1500 L   500 L = 3)
If the dilute label rate is 40 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 3 x 40, that is 120 mL/ 100 L of concentrate spray.
The chosen spray volume, amount of product per 100 L of water, and the sprayer set up and operation may need to be changed as the crop grows.
- For further information on concentrate spraying, users are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices.
For concentrate application, use a spray volume of at least 200 litres per hectare. For dilute application, apply to run-off. See Dilute spraying above.

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING
GROUP 11 FUNIGICIDE
CABRIO WG Fungicide is a member of the strobilurin group of fungicides. For fungicide resistance management, CABRIO WG Fungicide is a Group 11 fungicide.
Some naturally-occurring individual fungi resistant to CABRIO WG Fungicide and other Group 11 fungicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any fungal population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the fungal population if these fungicides are used repeatedly. These resistant fungi will not be controlled by CABRIO WG Fungicide or other Group 11 fungicides, thus resulting in a reduction in efficacy and possible yield loss.
Since the occurrence of resistant fungi is difficult to detect prior to use, BASF Australia Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of CABRIO WG Fungicide to control resistant fungi.

RE-ENTRY PERIOD
DO NOT enter treated areas until the spray has dried, unless wearing cotton overalls (or equivalent clothing) and chemical resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day’s use.

PRECAUTION
DO NOT use human flaggers/markers unless they are protected by engineering controls such as enclosed cabs.

CAUTION
Export of treated fruit or wine
Growers should note that Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) or import tolerances do not exist in all markets for fruit treated with CABRIO WG Fungicide. Additionally, some export markets have established MRLs different to those in Australia. If you are growing fruit for export (either fresh, dried or for wine production), please check with BASF Australia Ltd or the Australian Wine Research Institute www.awri.com.au/ for the latest information on MRLs and import tolerances BEFORE using CABRIO WG Fungicide.
