For the control of various diseases of avocados, grapes, mangoes, passionfruit, cucurbits, poppies, potatoes and tomatoes.

Application
DO NOT use concentration factors exceeding 4X when applying through low volume application equipment, except when applying SUPERNOVA 250SC by air. In these cases adequate coverage of all plant surfaces is still required to achieve control of diseases.

Tree Crops and Vines
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 Direction for Use table for each 100L 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
1. Dilute spray volume as determined above: for example 1000L/ha
2. Your chosen concentrate spray volume: for example 500L/ha
3. The concentration factor in this example is: 2X(ie 1000L÷500L=2)
4. If the dilute label rate is 80mL/100L, then the concentrate rate becomes 2x80, that is 160mL/100L of concentrate spray.
The chosen spray volume, amount of product per 100L 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.

Mixing
Half-fill the spray tank with clean water and start agitation. Shake the closed SUPERNOVA 250SC container. Whilst filling the remainder of the spray tank add the required amount of SUPERNOVA 250SC, adding any tank mix products last. Maintain agitation until spraying is complete. DO NOT leave the spray mix in the sprayer overnight.

Compatibility/Tank Mixing
SUPERNOVA 250SC may be mixed in the spray vat with any one of the following products: Axe , Barrack , Captan 900WG, copper hydroxide, Dominex Duo, Dipel DF, Matador , Larvin 375, Fortress 500, Talstar 80SC, Endosulfan.
A mixture of SUPERNOVA 250SC with more than 1 of these products or with any other product may be ineffective or may cause serious damage. The use of such a mixture is not recommended and would therefore be entirely at the user’s risk.
If tank mixes are to be used observe all directions, precautions and limitations on all products to be used. As formulations of other manufacturer’s products are beyond the control of Crop Care Australasia Pty Ltd, and water quality varies with location, all mixtures should be tested prior to mixing commercial quantities.
Note: On some tomato varieties, tank mixtures of SUPERNOVA 250SC and Lorsban 500 EC or Nitofol or Supracide or Lebaycid or Kelthane MF have been found to be phytotoxic.
DO NOT tank mix these products with SUPERNOVA 250SC.
On some grape varieties, tank mixtures of SUPERNOVA 250SC and Lorsban 500 EC have been found to be phytotoxic.
DO NOT tank mix SUPERNOVA 250SC with Lorsban 500 EC for use in grapes.
