An agricultural fungicide for the control of foliar and ear diseases in winter and spring barley.
An emulsifiable concentrate formulation containing 150 g/L prothioconazole, 75 g/L fluoxastrobin and 75 g/L trifloxystrobin.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.
Coyote is a mixture of a triazolinthione and two strobilurin fungicides recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring barley. 

WINTER and SPRING BARLEY
Diseases: Eyespot (Oculimacula spp.), Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis), Brown rust, Fusarium ear blight, Rhynchosporium leaf blotch, Net blotch.
Rate: 0.8 L/ha
Critical comments: Maximum number of applications: 2 per season. Latest time of application: At any stage before beginning of flowering (GS 61).

Method of application: Tractor mounted sprayer
Risk Mitigation measures: To protect aquatic organisms respect an unsprayed buffer zone of 5m to surface water bodies.
A spray pressure of 2-3 bar is recommended. Apply Coyote in 100-300 litres water per
hectare.
Apply as a medium spray quality.

Eyespot (Oculimacula spp.)
Spray 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).
Powdery Mildew (Blumeria graminis)
Strains of barley powdery mildew resistant to Qol fungicides are common in Ireland. Where specific control of mildew is required, this should be achieved through a programme of measures, including products with recommendations for control of mildew that contain different active substances used in mixture or sequence.
Apply Coyote at the first signs of disease. Where disease pressure remains high application may be repeated.
Brown Rust (Puccinia hordei)
Apply Coyote at the first signs of disease. A second application may be made 2-3 weeks later if re-infection occurs. Applications made to established infections are likely to be less effective.
Fusarium ear blight*
Apply Coyote soon after ear emergence until the end of flowering (GS 59-69). Control of ear diseases can result in cleaner, brighter ears. (*excluding Microdochium nivale)
Leaf Blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis)
Apply Coyote in spring at the first signs of disease. For severe infections a second application may be necessary 2-3 weeks later.
Net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres)
Apply Coyote at the first signs of disease in spring/early summer.
For severe infections, a second application 2-3 weeks later will give most effective control when conditions remain favourable for disease development.
MANAGEMENT STRATEGY TO MINIMISE THE LIKELIHOOD OF RESISTANCE
Coyote contains fluoxastrobin and trifloxystrobin, members of the Qol cross- resistance group. Coyote should be used preventatively and should not be relied on for its curative potential. It should not be used where disease is already established. Use Coyote as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action.
You must not apply more than two foliar applications of Qol containing products to any cereal crop.
Limiting the number of sprays is an important factor in delaying the build-up of resistant pathogen populations.
Failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Appropriate disease risk assessment or decision support systems must be used when deciding whether to treat with Coyote. Strains of barley powdery mildew resistant to QoI’s are common in Ireland.
The possible development of resistance to Coyote cannot be predicted. Should it occur Coyote may not give satisfactory control and no responsibility can be accepted for any loss incurred.
The Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC) produces recommendations that may be consulted for additional information.

CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Coyote may be used on all commercial varieties of winter and spring barley.
Mixing
Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of Coyote to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing.
General
Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned before use, and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages.
Boom height should be adjusted to ensure even coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. The correct height is one at which the spray from alternate nozzles meets just above the crop. In dense crops, at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used.
Spray equipment should be thoroughly cleaned with detergent after use.
