DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be carefully read in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.
 
GENERAL INFORMATION
MENARA is an emulsifiable concentrate containing 250 g/l propiconazole and 160 g/l cyproconazole for use as a foliar fungicide on all commercial varieties of winter wheat and winter and spring barley.
Treatment at early stages of disease development will ensure the best results.

Caution
The possible development of resistance to MENARA cannot be predicted. Should it occur MENARA may not give satisfactory control and no responsibility can be accepted for any loss incurred.
MENARA applied to winter wheat in the spring at GS30–33 may, on occasion, cause straw shortening. This effect causes no loss of yield and can be beneficial in a potential lodging situation.
 
DISEASES CONTROLLED
MENARA controls Powdery mildew, yellow and brown rust, net blotch, Septoria spp., ear diseases and Rhynchosporium.
Apply at the first sign of disease.
When applied before or during the period of stem extension in the spring (GS 30-32), MENARA will give a useful reduction of eyespot.

CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION

For use on all varieties of winter wheat and winter and spring barley.
Avoid applying MENARA to crops under stress.
Timing
For the control of Powdery Mildew, Yellow and Brown Rust, Net Blotch, Septoria spp., Ear Diseases and Rhynchosporium, apply at the first sign of disease.
For Eyespot when applied before or during the period of stem extension in the spring (GS30–32), MENARA will give a useful reduction.
Rates of Use
Winter wheat
Apply MENARA at 0.5 l/ha. A maximum of 1.0 l/ha MENARA may be used per crop.
Barley
Apply MENARA at 0.5 l/ha. A maximum of 0.5 l/ha MENARA may be used per crop.

RESISTANCE
MENARA contains a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website.

MIXING AND SPRAYING
Apply MENARA in 100–400 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.
Higher spray volumes are recommended where the crop is dense or disease pressure/risk is high to ensure good penetration to the lower leaves and stem bases. Disease control maybe compromised by reducing water volumes, where good spray coverage is difficult to achieve.
