COMPLETE ADMIXTURE - Wheat, triticale, barley, oats
Preparation
For best results the store should be thoroughly cleaned before the grain is added.

Timing
Grain should be treated as soon as possible during storage. Ideally ACTELLIC 50EC should be applied to the grain as it is loaded into store. However, moist and/or warm grain should be dried and/or cooled before treatment. Vigorous drying and cooling operations can reduce the effectiveness of treatment by causing degradation of the insecticide. Whenever such operations are necessary for grain going into longer term storage they should be conducted prior to treatment, ideally before the grain is loaded into its final storage place.
Treatment of grain to be used for seed purposes is inadvisable due to adverse effects on subsequent seedlings.

Moisture content
For best results when using ACTELLIC 50EC moisture contents should be maintained at or below 15% for cereals.
If the moisture content is higher the effectiveness of treatment and the period of protection can be reduced.

Curative treatment
Always inspect grain following application to ensure that control is complete.
SURFACE ADMIXTURE - Wheat, triticale, barley, oats

Preparation
Surface admixture will be effective only if the store is thoroughly cleaned and disinfested, and if the grain coming into store is free of insect or mite pests.

Treatment
Treat the surface layer of the grain bulk to a depth of at least 30-100cm. This can be done by first part filling the store and levelling the bulk of untreated grain. Treat the remaining grain as it enters the store, distribute evenly over the bulk to create a treated layer.

Storage conditions
Care should be taken to ensure that the moisture content of the grain is kept low (at or below 15% for cereals), and that the bulk is kept cool. Any subsequent movement of the surface layer will reduce the effectiveness of treatment.
Surface admixture of ACTELLIC 50EC is compatible with ‘Integrated Pest Control’ (IPC). Further details are available from specialist advisers or your local Syngenta adviser.

Important note
Surface admixture is recommended for use only where the above preparation, treatment and storage conditions can be achieved. The use of surface admixture under any other circumstances is at user’s own risk.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Shake well before use. Half fill the spray tank with water and begin agitation. Add the required quantity of ACTELLIC 50EC to the spray tank and complete filling. Maintain agitation during application and apply immediately.

Application
Apply using a suitable liquid applicator. DO NOT APPLY surface admixture or complete admixture using hand held equipment. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and take care to minimise the risk of operator exposure.
Consult your supplier or Syngenta UK Ltd for a list of application equipment suppliers.

After Use
Empty application equipment and clean thoroughly after use.
