For seed treatment use in soybeans

GENERAL INFORMATION
In soybeans, Acceleron DX-109 Fungicide Seed Treatment protects against diseases caused by seed- and soil-borne Fusarium and Rhizoctonia. Make all applications according to the use directions in this label. Use the high rate of Acceleron DX-109 Fungicide Seed Treatment when disease pressure is expected to be high.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Apply Acceleron DX-109 Fungicide Seed Treatment as a water-based mixture using standard slurry or mist-type seed treatment application equipment. The exact amount of water needed to provide the mixture or slurry rate (mL/100 kg of seed) for optimum coverage is difficult to predict since weather conditions, hot or cold, seed type and surface and equipment used all have a bearing on coverage. Consult a seed treatment specialist regarding slurry rates recommended for the crop seed to be treated with Acceleron DX-109 Fungicide Seed Treatment. The required amount of Acceleron DX-109 Fungicide Seed Treatment should then be diluted with the recommended amount of water that will provide uniform and complete coverage on the seed surface. Uniform application on seed and complete seed coverage are necessary for seed safety and best disease protection. Seed should be sound and well cleaned prior to treatment. The purchaser of Acceleron DX-109 Fungicide Seed Treatment is responsible for ensuring that all seed treated with this product are adequately dyed with a suitable color to prevent its accidental use as food for man or feed for animals.
