CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION

Clayton Pontoon is a mixture of a triazolinthione and triazole fungicide recommended for the control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring barley, winter and spring wheat, triticale, winter rye, winter and spring oats, and in winter oilseed rape.
Method of application: Tractor mounted sprayer. Do not apply by hand held equipment.
Apply Clayton Pontoon in 200–300 litres per hectare water. Use a spray pressure of 2-3 bar and apply as a medium spray quality.

Septoria Leaf Spot and Glume Blotch (Septoria tritici and Leptosphaeria nodorum) : To protect the upper leaves and ear apply Clayton Pontoon at full flag leaf emergence (GS 37) up to mid-flowering (GS 65). Apply before disease is established in the crop. A repeat application may be necessary if disease pressure remains high. If symptoms are already present control is likely to be less effective.
Yellow Rust : Apply Clayton Pontoon at the first signs of disease. if re-infection occurs a second application may be made 3 weeks later. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective.
Brown Rust : Apply Clayton Pontoon at the first signs of disease. Clayton Pontoon controls brown rust in barley (Puccinia hordei), rye (P. recondita) and wheat (P. recondita). A second application may be made 3 weeks later if reinfection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective.
Powdery Mildew (Blumeria graminis) : Apply Clayton Pontoon at the first signs of disease. If disease pressure remains high a 2nd application may be necessary.
Crown Rust (Puccinia coronata) : Apply Clayton Pontoon at the first signs of disease in winter and spring oats. If re-infection occurs apply a second application 3 weeks later. Application to an established infection is likely to be less effective.
Tan Spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repensis) : Apply Clayton Pontoon at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated.
Ear Disease Complex : Control of Fusarium ear blight and reduction of sooty moulds can result in cleaner, brighter ears. Apply Clayton Pontoon soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS 59-69). By reducing ear blight, Clayton Pontoon effectively reduces the level of the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat grain. However, if Fusarium levels are high, the reduction achieved may not always be sufficient to ensure that DON levels fall below the statutory limit.
Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) : For a high level of control apply Clayton Pontoon in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 3 weeks later.
Net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres) : Apply Clayton Pontoon at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer. A second application 3 weeks later for severe infection will give most effective control should conditions remain suitable for disease development.
Eyespot (Oculimacula spp.) : To reduce the incidence and severity of eyespot, spray Clayton Pontoon in the spring at the first sign of disease, from when the leaf sheaths begin to become erect until the 2nd node is detectable (GS 30–32).
