PRODUCT INFORMATION

MIRAVIS Ace is a broad spectrum, preventative fungicide recommended for the control or suppression of many important plant diseases, formulated as a suspo-emulsion (SE). Read all label directions before use. All applications must be made according to the use directions that follow.

General Use Precautions
DO NOT USE IN GREENHOUSES (ALONE OR IN TANK MIXTURES) FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL MAY RESULT IN CROP INJURY, POOR DISEASE CONTROL, AND/OR ILLEGAL RESIDUES.
Apply the higher rate and shorter interval under conditions of high disease pressures.
Not all members of the crop groups have been tested for efficacy and phytotoxicity at the recommended label rates, and should be used at the discretion of the user.

DIRECTIONS FOR 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.

Ground Application
Field sprayer application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the
American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE S572.1) fine classification.
Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
In some cases, tank mixing a pest control product with another pest control product or a fertilizer can result in biological effects that could include, but are not limited to: reduced pest efficacy or increased host crop injury. 

Mixing Instructions
1. Ensure that the sprayer interior is clean, then fill the spray tank with ½ 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. Add any WG or DF formulation mix partners and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
3. Add MIRAVIS Ace and any additional SE or SC formulation mix partners and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
4. Add any EC formulation mix partners and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
5. Fill the tank to ¾ the required amount of water.
6. Add any solution (SN or SL) formulation mix partners and agitate to ensure complete mixing.
7. Finish filling the sprayer with water, maintaining good agitation.
8. After any break in spraying operations, agitate thoroughly before spraying again.
9. Spray the pesticide suspension the same day as mixing.
10. Do not mix, load or clean spray equipment where there is a potential to contaminate wells or aquatic systems.
When using chemical handling equipment to fill the sprayer, the following additional recommendations apply:
• WG and DF formulations are preferentially batch mixed.
• SC, SN, and SL formulations may be inducted or batch mixed.
• EC formulations are preferentially batch mixed

Spraying Instructions
1. Water Volume: Apply in a minimum spray volume of 100 L/ha OR the volume given in the crop and pest specific instructions tabulated below, whichever is LARGER.
2. Sprayer Agitation: Use a jet agitator or liquid sparge tube which recirculates 7-10% of the tank per minute. DO NOT use an air sparger.
3. Pump: Screens should be used to protect the pump and prevent clogging. Use 16 mesh or coarser screens on the suction side of the pump. DO NOT place a screen in the recirculation line. Use 50 mesh or coarser screens between the pump and boom unless directed otherwise by the sprayer manufacturer.
4. 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 or as recommended by the nozzle manufacturer. DO NOT use flood type nozzles, controlled droplet application equipment, spray foils or hollow cone nozzles.
5. Pressure: As recommended by the nozzle manufacturer to achieve no smaller than ASABE fine sized droplets.
6. 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.
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, therefore, avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in overly 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.

Sprayer Clean-Up
Before Spraying
• Prior to using MIRAVIS Ace Fungicide, ensure that the spray tank, lines and filter are thoroughly clean.
After Spraying
• Thoroughly clean application equipment immediately after spraying. DO NOT allow MIRAVIS Ace residue to dry within the spray tank.
• The following recommendations are provided:
1. Drain and flush tank walls, boom and all hoses for ten minutes with a clean water/detergent mixture. Rinse with clean water. DO NOT clean the sprayer near desirable vegetation, wells or other water sources.
2. Remove all nozzles and screens and wash separately.
3. Dispose of all rinsate in accordance with provincial regulations.

Aerial Application
Aerial application: 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 with spray droplets smaller than the
American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE S572.1) medium classification. Reduce drift caused by turbulent wingtip vortices. Nozzle distribution along the spray boom length MUST NOT exceed 65% of the wing- or rotorspan.
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.
