PRODUCT INFORMATION
FONTELIS must be used only in accordance with instructions on this label, in separately issued labeling or exemptions under FIFRA (Supplemental Labels, Special Local Need Registration, FIFRA Section 18 exemptions), or as otherwise permitted by FIFRA. Always read the entire label including the Limitation of Warranty and Liability. FONTELIS is a broad-spectrum fungicide, recommended for control of foliar and soil-borne plant diseases, and has preventive, curative, and locally systemic activity. FONTELIS must be applied in a regularly scheduled protective spray program in rotation with other fungicides. See directions below for specific crop/disease recommendations. FONTELIS can be applied with commonly used ground equipment, hose-end, pressurized, and greenhouse sprayers, air or chemigation equipment, except as otherwise directed, using sufficient water to obtain thorough coverage of plants. Thorough coverage of all foliage is essential for effective disease control. Maintain agitation during mixing and application to assure uniform product suspension.

Application Volumes
• For conventional ground application, apply a minimum of 15 gallons per acre, increasing the spray volume as the plants mature to ensure thorough coverage of foliage.
• For air-assisted ground application, apply a minimum of 10 gallons per acre.
• For aerial application, apply a minimum of 2 gallons per acre (10 gallons per acre for trees and orchards).
Rainfastness: DuPont FONTELIS rapidly penetrates into plant tissues and is rainfast within 1 hour after application

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
Repeated use of products for control of specific plant pathogens may lead to selection of resistant strains of fungi and result in a reduction of disease control. Penthiopyrad, the active ingredient in FONTELIS, is one of EPA's Target Site of Action Group 7 fungicides (carboxamides). A disease management program that includes rotation and/or tank mixing with non-Group 7 fungicides is essential to reduce the risk of fungicide resistance development. If resistance to Group 7 fungicides is expected, then tank mix FONTELIS with an effective fungicide with different mode-ofaction. For guidance on a particular crop and disease control situation, consult your state extension specialist for official state recommendations.
