An emulsifiable concentrate formulation containing 200 g/litre proquinazid for control of powdery mildew in wheat, barley, oats, rye and triticale.

Emulsifiable concentrate containing 200 g/litre proquinazid.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
RESTRICTIONS Proquin 200 should not be applied to any crop suffering from stress as a result of drought, waterlogging, low temperatures, nutrient or lime deficiency or other factors reducing crop growth. Avoid application in either frosty or hot, sunny weather conditions. Up to 2 treatments may be applied per crop, however the second application should be tankmixed with an alternate mode of action mildewicide.

DISEASE CONTROL
Proquin 200 controls Powdery mildew in cereals. Application should be made preventatively before the disease has established in the crop. If mildew has actively spread to new growth Proquin 200 should be tankmixed with a curative, alternate mode of action mildewicide.

RESISTANCE
There is a significant risk of widespread resistance occurring in Powdery mildew populations and failure to follow resistance management action may result in reduced levels of disease control. Development of resistance can be avoided or delayed by alternating or mixing products having a alternate mode of action (see Timing). Use Proquin 200 as part of an Integrated Crop Management Strategy (ICM) incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action. For resistance avoidance purposes proquinazid should be regarded as a quinolene type fungicide.

CROPS
Proquin 200 can be used on all varieties of wheat, barley, oats, rye and triticale

DOSE
Apply Proquin 200 at 0.25 litres/hectare.

TIMING
Proquin 200 can be applied at any time before full flowering (GS 65) on wheat or before beginning of heading (GS 49) on barley, oats, rye and triticale. Up to a maximum of 2 treatments may be made. The first treatment should be applied preventatively at the onset of disease development before its spread to new growth. If a second treatment is required, this may be applied after 4 – 6 weeks and must be tankmixed with an alternate mode of action mildewicide.

FOLLOWING CROPS
There are no restrictions on crops that may be grown following harvest of a cereal crop treated with Proquin 200

VOLUME AND APPLICATION
Apply Proquin 200 in 150 - 400 litres of water per hectare as a medium quality spray (as defined by BCPC). A spray pressure of 2 – 3 Bar is recommended. When applying Proquin 200, care should be taken not to overlap spray swaths.

MIXING
Half-fill the tank with clean water, add the required amount of Proquin 200 and continue agitation while topping up the tank and while spraying. Wash out container and add washings to the spray tank.

COMPATIBILITY
For resistance management purposes, Proquin 200 may also be tankmixed with alternate mode of action mildewicides. Products should only be tank-mixed if each product can be applied within the label recommendations for its use. For further information contact your DuPont distributor.

SPRAY TANK CLEAN-OUT
Immediately after application, completely drain spray equipment. Thoroughly rinse sprayer and flush the hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water. Loosen and physically remove visible deposits. Remove and clean nozzles, screens and strainers. Flush the entire system with clean water. Take all necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. Do not clean near wells or water sources. Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local regulations.
