NOT TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE, OR IN ANY MANNER, CONTRARY TO THIS LABEL UNLESS AUTHORISED UNDER APPROPRIATE LEGISLATION

WITHOLDING PERIOD: NOT REQUIRED WHEN USED AS DIRECTED GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
This product is a micronised formulation which mixes easily with water to form a spray with good spreading and sticking properties. It gives a quick fumigant action and long residual effect.

GROUP M2 FUNGICIDE

Fungicide Resistance Warning
For fungicide resistance management THIOVIT JET is a Group M2 fungicide. Some naturally occurring individual fungi resistant to THIOVIT JET and other Group M2 fungicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any fungal population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the fungi population if these fungicides are used repeatedly. These resistant fungi will not be controlled by THIOVIT JET or other Group M2 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, Syngenta Crop Protection Pty Limited accepts no liability for any losses that may result from failure of THIOVIT JET to control resistant fungi.

Mixing
This product must be mixed with water and applied by suitable equipment.
1
- Fill vat no more than 25% full with clean water BEFORE adding THIOVIT JET.
- Begin agitating vat contents vigorously and continue agitation during entire mixing and spraying operations.
2
- Pour required amount of THIOVIT JET STEADILY into vat. Allow vigorous bypass agitation to completely disperse product. DO NOT dump product into vat all at once.
3
- After adding required quantity of THIOVIT JET and obtaining COMPLETE DISPERSION, continue to fill vat to desired level for spraying.
- Thorough agitation of the spray liquid should continue during the entire spraying operation.
- Note: Spray solution should NOT be left standing in the vat overnight.

Tank Mixing
THIOVIT JET is a microgranule formulation of sulphur. When mixing THIOVIT JET and other microgranule (MG), water dispersible granule (WG) or wettable powder (WP) formulations, ensure they are added and mixed well prior to adding emulsifiable concentrate (EC) or suspension concentrate (SC) products. Wettable powder (WP) formulations should be pre-mixed separately and then added to the spray tank.

Application in Tree Crops and Vines
Dilute Spraying: Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of runoff 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 runoff. Avoid excessive runoff. 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 100 L of water. Spray to the point of runoff. 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 runoff) 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
- Dilute spray volume as determined above: for example 2000 L/ha
- Your chosen concentrate spray volume: for example 500 L/ha
- The concentration factor in this example is: 4 x (ie 2000 L / 500 L = 4)
- If the dilute label rate is 200 g/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 4 x 200, that is 800 g/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 and follow industry Best Practices.

Compatibility
This product is fully compatible with fungicides and most insecticides. Avoid combinations with emulsion or miscible oils on tender crops.
