Zolera FXPlant Protection Product ComparisonPlant Protection Product ComparisonReport inaccuraciesReport inaccuracies

ZOLERA FX combines two powerful fungicides at full rates for maximum performance and yield in pulse crops. The combination of a fast-acting and highly systemic strobilurin at full rate with a highly systemic triazole delivers more reliable and consistent performance, more robust disease control with both preventative and curative activity, more plant health benefits and, ultimately, higher yields. ZOLERA FX also provides residual activity and root-to-tip protection.

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. Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control. Applications using sufficient water volume to provide thorough and uniform coverage generally provide the most effective disease control. For ground application equipment, 100 L/ha minimum is recommended. Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application. Be certain that nozzles are the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom. Calibrate the sprayer before use. Use a pump with the capacity to: (1) maintain a minimum of 240 kPa at nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient agitation in the tank to keep the mixture in suspension (this requires recirculation of 10% of the tank volume per minute). Use jet agitators or a liquid sparge tube for vigorous agitation. Use screens to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging. Screens placed on the suction side of the pump should be 16-mesh or coarser. Do not place a screen in the recirculation line. Use 50-mesh screens at the nozzles. Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations. For information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer manufacturer’s and/or provincial recommendations. For specific local directions and spray schedules, consult the current provincial recommendations.

Mixing Procedures Prepare no more spray mixture than is needed for the immediate operation. Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product. Agitation is necessary for proper dispersal of the product. Maintain maximum agitation throughout the spraying operation. Do not let the spray mixture stand 3 overnight in the spray tank. Flush the spray equipment thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to a previously treated area. Add 1/2 of the required amount of water to the mix-tank. With the agitator running, add the ZOLERA FX Fungicide to the tank. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Begin application of the solution after the ZOLERA FX Fungicide has completely and uniformly dispersed into the mix-water. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied. 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. Prior to aerial application, check aircraft for uniformity of spray pattern, spray swath width and output. Spray volumes of 50 litres/ha are generally optimum. If foliage is dense, use an output that will ensure optimum fungicide penetration. Spray swaths should be marked using flaggers who are in completely enclosed vehicles, by counting rows or by some other marking device. 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. Where no rate for aerial application appears for the specific use, this product cannot be applied by any type of aerial equipment. Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices.

Aerial Use Precautions Apply only when meteorological conditions at the treatment site allow for complete and even crop coverage. 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. Read and understand the entire label before opening this product.
