SYSTEMIC FUNGICIDE SEED PROTECTANT FOR WHEAT, BARLEY AND OATS

GENERAL INFORMATION:
DEFLECT Fungicide is a combination of the systemic fungicides, tebuconazole and metalaxyl, which control the following seed, seedling, and soil borne diseases of wheat, barley and oats.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
WHEAT, BARLEY AND OATS:
DEFLECT Fungicide is a ready to use formulation designed for commercial or on-farm treating with conventional seed treating equipment which can accurately control application rates and provide good distribution of the chemical onto the seed in the mixing chamber. Uniform application to seed is necessary to ensure seed safety and best disease control.
Use 300 ml of DEFLECT Fungicide per 100 kg of seed.
1. Seed is protected by DEFLECT Fungicide as soon as it is treated. Seed may be planted immediately.
2. Calibrate seeding equipment using treated seed to insure proper seeding rate.
3. Germination will not be affected by treatment as long as over application does not occur and seed is properly stored. All seed carried from one year to the next, whether treated or untreated should be checked for germination before planting.
4. Uniform coverage at the correct rate is important for satisfactory results. Under treatment will lead to loss of efficacy and over treatment could reduce germination. Refer to instructions supplied with your seed treater or to information supplied by Loveland Products Canada Inc. for assistance with proper treating.
