For disposal, this container may be returned to the point of purchase (distributor/dealer). It must be refilled by the distributor/dealer with the same product. Do not reuse this container for any other purpose.
For recyclable containers:
Do not reuse this container for any purpose. This is a recyclable container, and is to be disposed of at a container collection site. Contact your local distributor/dealer or municipality for the location of the nearest collection site. Before taking the container to the collection site:
1. Triple- or pressure-rinse the empty container. Add the rinsate to the spray mixture in the tank.
2. Make the empty, rinsed container unsuitable for further use.
If there is no container collection site in your area, dispose of the container in accordance with provincial requirements. 

GENERAL INFORMATION
BRAVO TOP Fungicide is a broad-spectrum product containing two fungicides. It has preventative, some systemic and curative properties and is recommended for the control of many important plant diseases. BRAVO TOP provides excellent disease control of many leaf spots and powdery mildews when used according to label directions. Thorough uniform coverage is essential for protection from diseases.
General use Precautions
DO NOT combine BRAVO TOP Fungicide in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers, unless your prior use has shown the combination physically compatible and non-injurious under your conditions of use.
As this product is not registered for the control of pests in aquatic systems, DO NOT use to control aquatic pests.
DO NOT contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
DO NOT use on greenhouse-grown agricultural crops.
Dosage rates on this label indicate litres of BRAVO TOP Fungicide per hectare, unless otherwise stated. Applications should be made in sufficient water to obtain adequate coverage of foliage. Volume of water to be used will vary with crop and amount of plant growth. Spray volume usually will range from 225-1,600 litres per hectare for ground sprays and a minimum of 50litres per hectare for aerial applications. Recommended methods of application include ground-boom and aerial. Please see specific use directions for further information.

ROTATIONAL CROP RESTRICTIONS
Do not plant any other crop for a period of 60 days of a Bravo Top Fungicide application to the preceding crop unless Bravo Top Fungicide is registered for that crop.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
GROUND APPLICATION
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Ensure that the sprayer interior is clean, then fill the spray tank with 1/2 the required amount of water and engage gentle agitation. Good agitation is indicated by a rippling or rolling action on the surface of the water.
2.
3. Add BRAVO TOP (SC) and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
4. Fill the tank to 3/4 the required amount of water.
5. Finish filling the sprayer with water, maintaining good agitation, and begin spraying promptly.
6. Spray the entire volume of Bravo Top Fungicide without stopping agitation.
7. Spray the pesticide suspension the same day as mixing.
8. Do not mix, load or clean spray equipment where there is a potential to contaminate wells or aquatic systems.

EQUIPMENT SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
Field sprayer application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply spray droplets which are smaller than the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Water Volume: Specific to crop and disease. Consult the following tabulated instructions for use.
2. Spray Nozzles: 80 or 110 drift reducing flat fan (e.g. those with a pre-orifice or turbulence chamber) or air induction nozzles are recommended. Use 50 mesh nozzle screens. Do not use flood type nozzles, controlled droplet application equipment, spray foils or hollow cone nozzles.
3. Pressure: As recommended by the nozzle manufacturer to achieve ASABE medium sized droplets.
4. Apply at uniform speed and avoid overlapping. Shut off spray boom while starting, turning, slowing or stopping to avoid potential crop injury from over application. Keep agitation engaged at all times.

AERIAL APPLICATION
Apply only by fixed-wing or rotary aircraft equipment which has been functionally and operationally calibrated for the atmospheric conditions of the area and the application rates and conditions of this label.
Label rates, conditions, and precautions are product specific. Read and understand the entire label before opening this product. Apply only at the rate recommended for aerial application on this label. When no rate for aerial application appears for the specific use, this product cannot be applied by any type of aerial equipment.
Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking technology. GPS based marking is recommended.
DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 16 km/h at flying height at the site of application. DO NOT apply spray droplets which are smaller than the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) medium classification. The nozzle distribution along the spray boom length MUST NOT exceed 65% of the wing or rotor span in order to reduce drift caused by turbulent wingtip vortices.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:
Mixing this product directly in the aircraft hopper IS NOT recommended. The use of chemical handling or managing equipment to load the hopper IS recommended. This product MAY BE inducted into a hopper which is prefilled with water or when the product and water are mixed prior to entering the hopper. This product MAY BE batch mixed and pumped into the hopper. In all cases the chemical handling equipment and hopper interior must be clean prior to use.
1. Pump water into the hopper to at least 1/4 to 1/2 of the desired spray volume. Engage hopper circulation, if possible.
2. Induct or thoroughly batch mix BRAVO TOP (SC).
3. Finish filling the hopper with water.
4. If it was not possible to engage hopper agitation in Step 1, do so as soon as possible once airborne.
5. Spray the pesticide suspension the same day as mixing.
6. Do not mix, load or clean equipment where there is a potential to contaminate wells or aquatic systems. 
Use Precautions
Apply only when meteorological conditions at the treatment site allow for complete and even crop coverage. Apply only under conditions of good practice specific to aerial application as outlined in the National Aerial Pesticide Application Manual, developed by the Federal/Provincial/Territorial Committee on Pest Management and Pesticides.
Do not apply to any body of water. Avoid drifting of spray onto any body of water or other non-target areas. Specified buffer zones should be observed.
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, therefore, avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist). Do not apply during periods of dead calm or when wind velocity and direction pose a risk of spray drift. Do not spray when the wind is blowing towards a nearby sensitive crop, garden, terrestrial habitat (such as shelter-belt) or aquatic habitat.
Operator Precautions
Do not allow the pilot to mix chemicals to be loaded onto the aircraft. Loading of premixed chemicals with a closed system is permitted.
It is desirable that the pilot have communication capabilities at each treatment site at the time of application.
The field crew and the mixer/loaders must wear chemical resistant gloves, coveralls and goggles or face shield during mixing/loading, cleanup and repair. Follow the more stringent label precautions in cases where the operator precautions exceed the generic label recommendations on the existing ground boom label.
All personnel on the job site must wash hands and face thoroughly before eating and drinking. Protective clothing, aircraft cockpit and vehicle cabs must be decontaminated regularly.
Product Specific Precautions
Read and understand the entire label before opening this product. If you have questions, call the manufacturer or obtain technical advice from the distributor or your provincial agricultural representative. Application of this specific product must meet and/or conform to the following:
Spray Volume for Aerial Application: Apply the recommended rate in a minimum spray volume of 50 litres per hectare.
Refer to ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS for additional details.
