GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING Sinon Tebazal 430 Fungicide is a member of the DMI group of fungicides. For fungicide resistance management, the product is a Group 3 fungicide. Some naturally occurring individual fungi resistant to the product and other Group 3 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 this product and other Group 3 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, Sinon Australia Pty Limited accepts no liability for any losses that result from the failure of this product to control resistant fungi.

Resistance Management Recommendation - Peanuts Apply no more than 3 consecutive sprays of DMI fungicide (e.g., tebuconazole) before switching to a non-DMI fungicide. Apply no more than 5 DMI sprays per season.

Special Warning - Bananas There are certain conditions when the surface of recently emerged fruit is particularly prone to marking damage from spray applications. In circumstances where application will be made to very rapidly growing fruit in hot conditions with strong direct light, it is recommended that all emerged bunches be bagged prior to spraying to minimize the risk of fruit marking. Never include adjuvants other than water miscible oils with Sinon Tebazal sprays. The inclusion of wetting agents is known to cause phototoxicity to young fruit.

Foliar Diseases on Cereal Crops Do not apply to cereal crops more than once in a season. Treatment will give approximately three weeks disease suppression. Economic responses may not be gained by spraying crops past the flowering stage. The effects of fungicide application will not be clearly seen for 7-10 days after application. Yield potential: crops with potential yield under 2 t/ha are unlikely to give economic responses to a fungicide spray except under conditions of very severe disease. Economic responses are most likely with crops with a potential yield of over 3 t/ha.

Spray Timings for Stripe Rust Control Obtain advisory literature from the Department of Agriculture for classification of resistant and susceptible varieties. In South Australia, consult Plant Protection Note PPN 21. In other states, the following spray program is suggested: Seedling Infections: When approximately 20 out of 100 leaves show the first signs of infection during tillering to jointing, apply a spray within one week. Adult Infections – Susceptible Varieties: When approximately 10 out of 100 leaves show the first signs of infection, apply within one week. Do not delay. Adult Infections – Moderately Susceptible Varieties: When approximately 15 to 20 leaves out of 100 leaves show the first signs of infection, apply a spray within one week. Do not delay. Adult Infections – Moderately Resistant and Resistant Varieties: Monitor carefully. If rust appears and spreads, spray within one week.

MIXING Prior to pouring, shake the container vigorously, then add the required amount of Sinon Tebazal to water in the spray vat while stirring or with agitators in motion. Add the required amount of Agridex (peanuts, beans) or water miscible oil (bananas) and mix thoroughly.

APPLICATION Aircraft should fly as low as possible under the prevailing conditions to minimize drift.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate ponds, waterways, or drains with the product or used container. The spray drift minimization strategy should be employed at all times when aerially applying sprays. The strategy envisaged is exemplified by the cotton industry's Best Management Practices Manual.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store in the closed original container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Do not store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. This container can be recycled if it is clean, dry, free of visible residues and has the drumMUSTER logo visible. Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal. Dispose of rinsate by adding it to the spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. Wash outside of the container and the cap. Store cleaned container in a sheltered place with the cap removed. It will then be acceptable for recycling at any drumMUSTER collection point or similar container management program site. The cap should not be replaced but may be taken separately. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose clear of waterways, desirable vegetation, and tree roots, in compliance with relevant Local, State, or Territory government regulations. DO NOT burn empty containers or product. For REFILLABLE containers (110L, 1000L): Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to the point of supply for refill or storage.

SAFETY DIRECTIONS Harmful if swallowed. Will irritate the eyes and skin. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin. When opening the container, preparing the spray and using the prepared spray, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist and a washable hat and elbow-length PVC gloves. After use and before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash hands, arms, and face thoroughly with soap and water. After each day's use, wash gloves and contaminated clothing.
