DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Potatoes must be clean and all bruises and cuts must have healed before treatment. Dirt on the potato may prevent the chemical from reaching the buds. Application before wounds have healed will prevent suberization and will leave the tuber open to infection by disease. Normally a minimum of two weeks should elapse after harvest and before treatment.

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT
Sprout-Nip E.C. Potato Sprout Inhibitor is sprayed as a 1% emulsion to potatoes in the packing line. The spray nozzle should be set up in the packing line between the cleaning equipment and the packing equipment. In packing lines equipped with brushes, place the spray nozzle on the output side of the brushes. In wash lines, place the spray nozzle on the output side of the dryer rolls. A shield should be constructed round the spray table / conveyor belt to prevent spray mist from drifting. Refer to the
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT section before application. Consult your BRENNTAG CANADA representative for assistance in installing spray equipment.

MIXING DIRECTIONS
Prepare 1% emulsion by adding 1 L of Sprout-Nip E.C. Potato Sprout Inhibitor to 35 L of water.
Form a uniform emulsion by stirring.

APPLICATION RATE
Apply 900 mL of the 1% emulsion per 20 bags of potatoes (45 kg per bag), or 25 L of the 1% emulsion per 25 metric tonnes of potatoes.
