A suspension concentrate containing 125 g/l (12.1% w/w) epoxiconazole.
A systemic fungicide for use in winter wheat, spring wheat, winter barley, spring barley, winter oats, spring oats , triticale and rye.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Time of Application
Apply Farmco Epoxy at the start of foliar disease attack. A maximum of two applications can be made up to before the crop enters the flowering period in winter and spring wheat, rye and triticale, and up to and including emergence of ear just complete in winter and spring barley and oats.
For optimum effect against eyespot with Farmco Epoxy apply between the leaf sheaths erect and second node detectable stages of the crop.
For protection against Fusarium ear blight and sooty mould on the ears of winter and spring wheat, apply Farmco Epoxy during ear emergence.
For a quicker clean-up of any mildew established at the time of application, apply Farmco Epoxy in a tank mix with Corbel at the dose given below.
For control of Septoria tritici and Septoria nodorum, treatment should normally be made after the third node detectable stage when disease is present and when weather favouring disease development has occurred. A follow-up treatment may be necessary if conditions continue to favour disease development.

Rate of Application
Apply 1 litre Farmco Epoxy in a minimum of 200 litres of water per hectare. When using a tank mix with Corbel apply 1 litre Farmco Epoxy with 0.5 litre Corbel per hectare in the water volumes given above.

MIXING
Half fill the spray tank with clean water and start the agitation. SHAKE THE CONTAINER WELL before use and pour in the required amount of product. Rinse any empty containers thoroughly and add rinsings to the spray tank. Add the remainder of the water and continue agitation until spraying is completed.
When tank mixes are to be used, each product should be added separately to the spray tank, taking due note of any instructions given as to the order of mixing.
All tank mixes should be used immediately after mixing.

Avoid spray drift on to neighbouring crops.
Wash equipment thoroughly after use.
This product may cause damage to broad-leaved plant species.
