CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Crops grown for processing : consult processor before use.
Timing
Initial Application : As FLUAZIFIN is a protectant fungicide, the spray programme has to be started BEFORE blight enters the crop.
Regardless of the crop growth stage, start spraying as soon as an official blight warning has been issued or when weather conditions are favourable, whichever is the sooner. In the absence of weather conditions conducive to disease development, the first application should be made as soon as foliage of adjacent plants in the rows begins to meet (approximately 15-30 cm high)

MIXING AND SPRAYING
Apply FLUAZIFIN in 200 to 500 litres of water per hectare.
Use a sufficient volume of water, ensuring full coverage of foliage and stems, increasing the volume as haulm growth progresses, particularly in dense crops and in case of high or severe blight risk conditions.
Application Details
Application Equipment: Apply FLUAZIFIN through tractor drawn or mounted, conventional hydraulic crop spraying equipment.
Sprayer Preparation: Ensure that the sprayer is clean and calibrated correctly. Apply at the water volumes appropriate for the density of the crop, using a MEDIUM quality spray (as defined by BCPC guidelines) to guarantee a good coverage of the foliage.
Spray Pressure: at least 2 bar.
Mixing: Before mixing FLUAZIFIN, fill the spray tank with clean water and start agitation. Shake the container before opening. Open the FLUAZIFIN container and add the recommended amount of the product to the sprayer using a filling device, or otherwise by direct adding the product to the spray tank.
Flush thoroughly the empty container and add washings to the sprayer. An integrated pressure rinsing device is suggested; otherwise manually rinse the container three times.
DO NOT RE-USE CONTAINER FOR ANY PURPOSE.
Agitate spray tank contents thoroughly whilst filling and throughout the whole spraying operation.
Do not leave the spray liquid in the sprayer for prolonged periods. Therefore, never prepare more spray than is required.
Tank cleaning: After use, wash measuring and spray equipment thoroughly.
