CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Crops
All varieties of winter and spring barley.
Timing
Treatment at early stages of disease development will ensure the best results. Further applications may be needed if disease attack is prolonged.

Eyespot: For best control of eyespot spray KAYAK before or during the period of stem extension in the spring (GS30–32). Control of eyespot may be reduced when very dry conditions follow application.

Powdery Mildew, Net Blotch, Rhynchosporium: Application at first signs of disease is recommended.
For Powdery mildew control use early in the spray programme to make best use of the protectant activity. Use with an eradicant partner such as Corbel, Opus, Proline, Fandango or Helix for established infections.
For Net Blotch and Rhynchosporium control KAYAK should be used in tank mixture with another partner with a different mode of action such as AMISTAR, AMISTAR OPTI, CHEROKEE, Fandango, Helix, Opus and Proline.

Rates of use
Apply 1.5 litres of product per hectare. With a maximum treatment of 3.0 litres product per hectare (2 treatments per crop).
The latest time of application for KAYAK is before first spikelet of inflorescence just visible stage.

MIXING AND SPRAYING
Make sure the sprayer is set to give an even application at the correct volume. In all cases add KAYAK to the spray tank first, followed by any additional products. Fill the spray tank with half the required volume of clean water and start agitation. Add the required amount of KAYAK to the spray tank. Agitate the mixture thoroughly before use and continue agitation during spraying. Thoroughly wash all spray equipment with water immediately after use.
Wash out containers thoroughly, preferably using an integrated pressure rinsing device, or manually rinse three times. Add washings to the sprayer at the time of filling. Complete filling to the required volume and continue to agitate throughout the spraying operation.
Do not leave the spray liquid in the sprayer for long periods (such as during meal breaks or overnight).
Spray Application
Apply KAYAK in 200 litres of water per hectare using a tractor-mounted sprayer and a medium spray as defined by BCPC. A spray pressure of 2–3 bars is recommended.
Thoroughly wash all spray equipment with water after use.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
KAYAK contains the aniline-pyrimidine fungicide cyprodinil. To reduce the risk of diseases developing resistance to cyprodinil, KAYAK should be used as part of a resistance management strategy that includes fungicides with a different mode of action. For specific advice please refer to timing section in CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION section above.

 

KAYAK is compatible with AMISTAR, AMISTAR OPTI, CHEROKEE, Fandango, Helix, Opus and Proline.
