USE INFORMATION
CruiserMaxx Potato Insecticide and Fungicide seed treatment contains the active ingredients of thiamethoxam insecticide and fludioxonil fungicide.
Thiamethoxam is a systemic seed treatment insecticide belonging to the neoticotinoid class of chemistry. Thiamethoxam protects against certain chewing and sucking insects through contact and ingestion. These insects include: green peach aphids, Colorado potato beetles, flea beetles, leafhoppers, leaf miners, psyllids and whiteflies. When rate ranges are given, use higher rates when insect pressure is expected to be high.
Fludioxonil protects against damage from certain soil-borne and seed-borne diseases of crop plants. Fludioxonil is active against Fusarium dry rot seed decay, seedborne Rhizoctonia that causes stem canker and tuber black scurf and seed-borne Helminthosporium solani, the causal agent of silver scurf diseases on potato tubers.
CruiserMaxx Potato Insecticide and Fungicide does not control bacterial disease or diseases present within the seed.
CruiserMaxx Potato Insecticide and Fungicide is to be used as an integral part of a potato pest management strategy. This strategy includes the use of high quality certified seed, proper crop rotation, insect population thresholds, appropriate control measures, optimal harvest time for tubers and proper handling of tubers without bruising. Consult your local agricultural extension agent for more detailed information on insect management practices.
The expected length of protection against the labeled pests is dependent upon the rate used, accurate application of the products to ensure the seed tubers receive the target rate of the active ingredients. Consult your local Syngenta representative or dealer for information relative to your area.

Important: Always read and follow label instructions when buying or using this product.
