DIRECTIONS FOR USE
RESTRICTIONS
Environmental impact
GANDALF is classified as hazardous to bees unless applied to the respective crop after the daily bee flying period until 2300h. It may not be applied to blossoming plants or plants visited by bees outside this period; this also applies to pest weeds.
GANDALF is classified hazardous to populations of relevant beneficial organisms.
Resistance Management
Strains of some aphid species are resistant to many aphicides. Where aphids resistant to products containing beta-cyfluthrin occur, Gandalf is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Repeat treatments are likely to result in lower levels of control.
Mixing and Application
Half-fill the spray tank with clean water, add the required quantity of GANDALF and begin agitation.
Maintain agitation until spraying is completed.
Only prepare the required quantity of GANDALF spray.
Do not leave mixture in spray tank overnight.
Water Volume
Apply in a minimum of 200 l/ha water. Increase volume where crop is dense to ensure good coverage of foliage.
Tank Cleaning
Clean spray tank hoses thoroughly with water and detergent before storing and using again.
Compatibility
GANDALF is compatible in tank mix with a range of insecticides and fungicides. Contact Makhteshim-Agan for full details on compatibilities.
