DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 16 km/h at the application site as measured outside of the treatment area on the upwind side.

Spray Buffer zones:
A spray buffer zone is NOT required for:
 uses with hand-held application equipment permitted on this label
The spray buffer zones specified in the table below are required between the point of direct application and the closest downwind edge of sensitive terrestrial habitats (such as grasslands, forested areas, shelter belts, woodlots, hedgerows, riparian areas and shrublands), sensitive freshwater habitats (such as lakes, rivers, sloughs, ponds, prairie potholes, creeks, marshes, streams, reservoirs and wetlands) and estuarine/marine habitats.

APPLES AND PEARS:
Apple Scab (Venturia inaequalis), Powdery Mildew (Podosphaera leucotricha): Spray with ground application equipment using sufficient volume for thorough coverage. DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
Tank Mix with Captan: Apply at the concentration of 175 grams SENATOR 70WP 1 Fungicide plus 1 kg of Captan 50WP (625 g Captan 80WP) per 1000 litres of water. The rate per hectare is 625 grams of SENATOR 70WP 1
Fungicide + 3.25 kg of Captan 50W (or 2 kg of Captan 80WP) in a full-season spray programme.
Do not use Captan with or shortly after oil sprays, or solvent formulations of parathion. Do not exceed a spray volume of 3500 L/ha (2.2 kg product per hectare). Do not exceed 2 applications per year. Observe a minimum re-application interval of 7 days.

LOWBUSH BLUEBERRIES:
Blossom and Twig Blight (Phomopsis vaccinii): Apply 1.1 kg of SENATOR 70WP 1 Fungicide in 1000 litres of water per hectare when using ground application. Commence applications at bud break. Make 2 applications at 10– to 14-day intervals. Exact interval used depends on weather conditions and disease development. Contact local extension officials. DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.

PEACHES, NECTARINES, PLUMS, PRUNES, CHERRIES:
Brown Rot (Monolinia fructicola): Apply 500 grams of SENATOR 70WP 1 Fungicide per 1000 litres of water (1.75 kg per hectare), using ground application equipment, at very early stages of blossoming, and at full bloom to ensure adequate protection. In B.C. apply at pink and full bloom stage. Avoid application during the crop blooming period. If applications must be made during the crop blooming period, restrict applications to the evening when most bees are not foraging. A second application may be made if wet weather conditions prevail. Do not exceed a spray volume of 3500 L/ha (1.75 kg product per hectare). Do not exceed 2 applications per year. Observe a minimum re-application interval of 7 days. DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
Experience has shown that alternating contact fungicides and SENATOR 70WP 1 Fungicide for control of brown rot will provide best results with least expectancy of resistance developing to the fungicides.
