A Seed Treatment Fungicide for seed and seedling protection against certain seed-borne and soil-borne diseases on labelled crops.
All seed treated with this product must be conspicuously coloured at the time of treatment. No open transfer is permitted in commercial seed treatment facilities.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Section 1: The Product
Trilex Component A is a seed treatment containing the fungicides penflufen and trifloxystrobin. Trilex Component A provides protection from seed, seedling and soil-borne diseases caused by Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium spp., and Botrytis cinerea on labelled crops.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
DO NOT apply this product or treated seeds directly to freshwater habitats (such as lakes, rivers, sloughs, ponds, prairie potholes, creeks, marshes, streams, reservoirs, ditches and wetlands), estuaries or marine habitats.
DO NOT contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.

Section 8: Pests Controlled
Trilex Component A is a seed treatment containing the fungicides penflufen and trifloxystrobin. Trilex Component A provides seed and seedling protection against a wide range of diseases caused by Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium spp., and Botrytis cinerea on labelled crops.

Section 9: Recommended Uses
Trilex Component A is a seed treatment formulation for use in commercial seed treatment operations, and for on-farm treating with conventional seed treating equipment which can accurately meter and apply flowable seed treatment formulations.
This product is recommended to be diluted with water or another suitable liquid just prior to application to ensure uniform coverage on the seed during the application process. Uniform application to seed is necessary to ensure optimum performance. Allow seeds to dry before bagging, storing or seeding.

Section 10: Application Cautions
COLOURATION OF TREATED SEED: This product contains a pigment which will colour the treated seed. However, users are responsible for ensuring that the treated seed, when dried and ready for bagging, storage or seeding, has an unnatural colour. If the pigment contained in the formulation does not colour the seed adequately, additional colourant must be added to the mixture while treating the seed. Regulations pertaining to colouration of treated seed enforced under the Seeds Act must be strictly adhered to when using this product.
SLURRY PREPARATION: When preparing a slurry of Trilex Component A with dilutants such as water or liquid inoculants, additional or continuous agitation or mixing may be necessary to prevent Trilex Component A from settling out. Do not store diluted slurry mixtures.
SEED TREATMENT AND INOCULANTS: Please check with inoculant manufacturers for application and compatibility details prior to use.
Seeds treated with Trilex Component A and seed inoculants may not flow through seeding equipment at the same rate as untreated seeds. Recalibrate the seeding equipment prior to planting treated seeds. Mixing Trilex Component A with seed inoculants may increase drying time while treating and extend the processing time.
SEED QUALITY: Lab and field studies have shown that Trilex Component A-treated seed can be stored without loss in germination or disease performance. Many large-seed legumes are prone to mechanical damage during seed handling, and a reduction in germination within a seed lot can occur should handling cause seed damage irrespective of seed treatment application. Trilex Component A-treated or untreated seed may drop in germination with age and germination drops are accelerated under adverse storage conditions or in seed with a high level of mechanical damage. Use handling equipment designed to minimize mechanical damage when moving seed. Due to seed quality and seed storage conditions beyond the control of Bayer CropScience, no claims are made to guarantee the germination of carry-over seed or propagating materials for all crop seed. Treatment of highly mechanically scarred or damaged seed, or seed known to be of low vigour and poor quality, may result in reduced germination and/or reduction of seed and seedling vigour. Treat a small quantity of seed using equipment similar to that planned for treating the total seed lot. Conduct germination tests on a small portion of seed before committing the total seed lot to a selected seed treatment.

Section 11: Use Limitations
USE RESTRICTIONS:
- Treated seed must not be used for food, feed or oil processing.
- Do not apply this product directly to freshwater habitats (such as lakes, rivers, sloughs, ponds, prairie potholes, creeks, marshes, streams, reservoirs, ditches, and wetlands), estuaries, or marine habitats.
- Do not contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
LABELLING TREATED SEED: All bags containing treated seed must be labelled or tagged as follows: “This seed has been treated with Trilex Component A, which contains penflufen and trifloxystrobin. Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants and chemical-resistant gloves when handling treated seed. DO NOT use for feed, food or oil processing. Store away from feeds and other foodstuffs.”
ROTATIONAL CROPS: Registered crops for Trilex Component A, as well as canola, mustard, rapeseed, soybean, alfalfa, corn and cereal grains, may be replanted at any time. For all other crops, do not plant-back within 30 days of seeding with Trilex Component A-treated seed.
