GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

MIXING

This product is suitable for application through conventional spray equipment calibrated to ensure thorough crop coverage. Add the required amount of product to the partially filled spray tank with the agitator running and complete filling the tank with water. Do not mix with alkaline water. Continue thorough agitation during spraying and after stoppage. DO NOT let prepared spray solution sit in the tank overnight.

APPLICATION

Dilute spraying – Tree and Vine Crops only

• 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 Directions 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 – Tree and Vine Crops only

• 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 1500 L/ha

  2. Your chosen spray volume: For example, 500 L/ha

  3. The concentration factor in this example is: 3X (i.e. 1500L divided by 500L = 3)

  4. If the dilute label rate is 10 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 3 x 10, that is 30 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.

• DO NOT use a concentrate rate higher than specified in the Critical Comment.

• For further information on concentrate spraying, users are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices.

TANK MIXTURES

Read and follow all label directions including application rates and safety directions for the tank mix products.

WETTING AGENT

Add a non-ionic surfactant at the rate directed on the product label.

Resistance Warning

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING GROUP 2 FUNGICIDE

Titan Procymidone 500 Fungicide is a member of the dicarboximide group of fungicides. For fungicide resistance management, this product is a Group 2 fungicide. Some naturally occurring individual fungi resistant to the product and other Group 2 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 this product and other Group 2 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, TITAN AG Pty Ltd, accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of this product to control resistant fungi.

Precautions

PRECAUTION

DO NOT use treated seed for human consumption. Do not allow treated seed to contaminate grain or other seed intended for animal or human consumption. When treated seed is stored it should be kept apart from other grain and the bags or other containers should be clearly marked to indicate that the contents have been treated with this product. Bags or containers which have held treated seed are not to be used for any other purpose.

RE-ENTRY

DO NOT enter treated areas until spray has dried. If prior entry is necessary, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, elbow-length chemical resistant gloves and goggles.

Protection Statements

PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK

DO NOT feed treated seed to animals, including poultry. DO NOT allow seed treated with this product to contaminate seed intended for animal consumption.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT

Toxic to aquatic life. DO NOT contaminate wetlands or watercourses with this product, used containers or bags which have held treated seed. DO NOT feed treated seed or otherwise expose to wild or domestic birds. Any spillages of treated seed must be cleaned up immediately, preferably by recovery and re-use. If disposal is required, ensure treated seed are thoroughly buried in compliance with relevant local, state or territory government regulations and not accessible to birds or other wildlife.

Storage and Disposal

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

Store in a locked room or place away from children, animals, feedstuffs, seed and fertilisers. Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight.

For Non-Refillable Containers:

Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, triple rinse, break, crush or puncture and deliver empty packaging or appropriate disposal at 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:

Storage must be secure so that contents cannot be tampered with. All locks and/or seals must be in order. If locks or seals are broken prior to initial use then the integrity of this product cannot be assured. If this occurs TITAN AG Pty Ltd should be advised immediately. Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area. Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to point of supply for refill or storage. Treated Seed and Containers of Treated Seed: When treated seed is stored it should be kept apart from other grain and the bags or containers should be clearly marked to indicate the contents have been treated with this product. Bags which have held treated seed are not to be used for any other purpose. Dispose of spent dip in an authorised dip disposal facility. If an authorised dip disposal facility is not available, the spent dip should be evenly spread over flat land not exceeding 20,000 L/ha. The disposal site must be dedicated, limed and adequately bunded (soil at least 15 cm high). DO NOT dispose unwanted spent dip in the same place for at least 420 days, as repeated depositions in one location may, over time, create a contaminated site. Unused or spent dips should be disposed of carefully to avoid contamination of wetlands or watercourses.
