GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

FARMOZ CITADEL Fungicide is a broad spectrum, systemic, foliar fungicide that is quickly taken up by plants and translocated within the plant. In turf, CITADEL provides protection on a monthly spray program and acts curatively after infection has taken place. Because of its systemic activity, CITADEL is less affected by rainfall or irrigation that contact type fungicides.

MIXING

Half fill the spray tank or vat with clean water. Then add the required amount of CITADEL with agitator going and top up the tank with water. Agitate thoroughly prior to and during spraying.

APPLICATION

Dilute Spraying (grapevines, papaws)
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 the 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 can then be calculated in the following way:

EXAMPLE ONLY
1. Dilute spray volume as determined above:
For example 1500 L/ha.
2. Your chosen concentrate spray volume:
For example 500 L/ha.
3. The concentration factor in this example is:
3 x (ie 1500 L ÷ 500 L = 3).
4. If the dilute label rate is 10 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 3 x 10, that is 30 mL/100 L of concentrate spraying.
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 grapevines, DO NOT use a concentrate rate higher than that specified in the Critical Comments because a rate higher than that has not been tested in FARMOZ trials.
For further information on concentrate spraying, users are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices.
