GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Success Neo is a spinosyn insecticide, in the form of a suspension concentration.

INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING

GROUP 5 INSECTICIDE

For insecticide resistance management, Success Neo Jemvelva active Insecticide is a Group 5 insecticide. Some naturally occurring insect biotypes resistant to Success Neo and other Group 5 insecticides may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if Success Neo and other Group 5 insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of Success Neo on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Corteva Agriscience Australia Proprietary Limited accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Success Neo to control resistant insects. Success Neo may be subject to specific resistance management strategies. For further information contact your local supplier, Corteva Agriscience representative or local agricultural department agronomist.

MIXING

• Agitate or shake the container immediately prior to use.

• Half fill the spray tank with water, add the appropriate amount of accurately measured Success Neo Insecticide (suspension concentrate), then complete filling the tank.

• Ensure thorough agitation by mechanical or hydraulic action at all times during mixing and application.

• Use only clean water within the range pH 5-9 to dilute Success Neo Insecticide.

COMPATIBILITY

Success Neo is compatible with most herbicides, fungicides and insecticides. Always conduct a bucket test to confirm physical compatibility. Always follow the instructions on both products and, if in any doubt, consult Corteva Agriscience, your agronomist or consultant or the maker of the other product.

STORAGE OF DILUTED SPRAY MIX

• Whenever possible the spray mix should be used immediately after it is prepared. However, if weather conditions or mechanical breakdown prevent immediate use, the spray mix may be stored for up to 72 hours without loss of activity.

• The spray mix should be agitated thoroughly by mechanical or hydraulic action at regular intervals during storage to prevent sedimentation. Ensure that the stored spray mix is thoroughly agitated at least once every 8 hours.

• The spray mix must be stored out of direct sunlight.

APPLICATION

Thorough coverage of the crop is essential. Ensure this by increasing water volume with plant growth stage. DO NOT apply when conditions are unsuitable for water-based spray applications. Avoid high temperature, strong winds, inversion conditions, imminent rain or any conditions that may reduce the quality of spray coverage or result in drift from the target area. Techniques to minimize drift should be employed at all times when aerially applying sprays to, or near, sensitive areas.

For optimum results follow the application specifications listed below:

• Ground Spraying: Apply in a minimum of 250 L/ha of water. Increase spray volumes as the crop grows.

• Ground Spraying forage brassicas and canola, cotton, chickpeas, other pulses and soybean ONLY: Apply in a minimum of 50L/ha of water.

• Aerial Spraying: Success Neo must only be applied by aircraft fitted with accurately calibrated equipment. Apply a minimum total spray volume of 30 L/ha with nozzles (e.g. Micronnaire rotary atomizers, CP nozzles or conventional hydraulic nozzles) set to medium spray quality according to ASAE S572 definition for standard nozzles. A spray drift minimization strategy should be employed at all times when applying this product. DO NOT apply Success NEO using Ultra Low Volume (ULV) methods.

DILUTE SPRAYING

• Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and match 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 first 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 runoff. If volume to be applied is <1000 L/ha then use the low volume (concentrate) application method for calculation of chemical rate. For volumes >1000 L/ha use dilute spray rate.

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. Consult your local advisor, agronomist or Department of Agriculture to determine this volume. This is needed to calculate the concentrate mixing rate.

• The mixing rate for concentrate spraying can then be calculated in the following way:

Concentrate Spraying Example:

1. Dilute spray volume as determined above: e.g. 1000 L/ha

2. Your chosen concentrate spray volume: e.g. 500 L/ha

3. The concentration factor is 2 X (1000 / 500)

4. If the dilute label rate is 40 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 2 X 40, i.e. 80 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. Always follow Industry Best Practices.
