GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Grain: Ensure even distribution of the product through the grain. Grain protection efficacy depends on absence of infestation, low moisture content (<12%), and storage temperature below 27°C.
Mixing: Mix the required amount of spray for immediate use. Add Sumithion 1000EC to water in tank while agitating well before spraying.
Equipment (Grain): Use specialized grain spraying equipment with spray nozzle capable of delivering an even pattern.
Cleaning: Wash out spray equipment, mixing, and measuring utensils with water after use.
CROP SAFETY Check manufacturer recommendations before applying Sumithion 1000EC to sorghum varieties. Discoloration and spotting may occur on certain sorghum varieties.
APPLICATIONS AND BUFFER ZONES Apply Sumithion 1000EC for control of locusts, grasshoppers, and weevils. Buffer zones must be observed to protect sensitive areas. Different buffer zone requirements for aerial and ground applications.
PRECAUTION Ground spraying should use vehicles with enclosed cabs to minimize exposure. Aerial spray operators should use closed mixing/loading systems. Human flaggers in aerial applications must be protected with enclosed cabs.
PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK, FISH, CRUSTACEA, AND ENVIRONMENT Avoid spraying under conditions causing drift or runoff onto sensitive areas. Dangerous to fish and bees; do not contaminate waterways or spray flowering plants while bees are foraging.
