General Info

HOW IT WORKS

SORATEL is a triazolinthione broad-spectrum systemic fungicide with Asorbital Formulation Technology. Asorbital Formulation Technology combines its unique mix of solvents and surfactants, delivering enhanced penetration efficiency and includes a built-in adjuvant.

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.
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 Engineers (ASAE S572.1) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
Airblast application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT direct spray above plants to be treated. Turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and outer rows. 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.

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
Engineers (ASAE 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.

GROUND APPLICATION:
1. Use well-maintained and calibrated conventional spray equipment, which provides adequate and uniform coverage.
2. Apply SORATEL in a minimum of 100 L water/ha, unless otherwise specified in DIRECTIONS FOR USE, Section 7.
3. Spray screens should be no finer than 50 mesh.
4. Ensure that the by-pass line discharges at the bottom of the tank to minimize foaming.
5. Maintain pressure at no less than 275 kPa to ensure good foliage penetration and coverage.
6. Provincial spray buffer zones that are greater than the spray buffer zones indicated in the DIRECTIONS FOR USE, Section 7, should be respected.
7. If spray mixture remains in the tank overnight, or for long periods during the day, agitate thoroughly prior to application.

AERIAL APPLICATION-GENERAL INFORMATION:
1. 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.
2. 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. Where no rate for aerial application appears for the specific use, this product cannot be applied by any type of aerial equipment. If you have questions, call 1-855-264-6262 or obtain technical advice from the distributor or your provincial agricultural representative.
3. Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices.
4. Apply SORATEL in a minimum of 50 L of water/ha.
5. To ensure proper coverage and distribution and to minimize drift, check to see that swath width and droplet size are adequate, and that wind velocities are low.
6. Use mechanical flaggers only.

AERIAL APPLICATION-USE PRECAUTIONS:
1. Apply only when meteorological conditions at the treatment site allow for complete and even crop coverage.
2. 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.
