DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product. HAIL is recommended for control of a wide range of diseases on winter and spring sown cereals, oilseed rape, field beans and linseed. For best disease control and yield benefit HAIL should be applied at an early stage of disease development, before infection spreads to new crop growth.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
Tank mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease. The possible development of diseases resistant to HAIL cannot be excluded or predicted. Where such resistant strains occur, HAIL is unlikely to give satisfactory control. HAIL contains tebuconazole a DMI fungicide. Resistance has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. HAIL is not recommended for the control of this disease. For further advice on resistance management in DMI’s contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website. Strains of light leaf spot resistant to azole fungicides are known to exist. To avoid development of resistance apply product protectively in response to disease forecasts. Where possible, when light leaf spot is present use a fungicide with an alternative mode of action or mixes containing an alternative mode of action when targeting other diseases such as Sclerotinia at mid flowering.

APPLICATION
Sprayers should be THOROUGHLY CLEANED before use and filters and jets checked for damage and blockages. A pressure of 2-3 bar (30-40 psi) is recommended.
Apply as a MEDIUM quality spray (as defined by BCPC). Boom height and water volume should be adjusted to ensure good coverage of the crop, particularly at later growth stages. In dense crops at later growth stages, higher water volumes should be used as recommended.

MIXING
Thoroughly shake the pack before use. Add the required quantity of HAIL to the half-filled spray tank with the agitation system in operation and then fill to the required level. Continue agitation at all times during spraying and stoppages until the tank is completely empty. Spray immediately after mixing. Where tank mixes are used HAIL should be added to the spray tank last, after first dispersing the other product(s)
