DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

PRODUCT USE INFORMATION:
Apply Minerva Fungicide in water carrier by spraying onto specified crop surfaces that are to be protected from disease. To obtain adequate coverage of typical agricultural crops, total spray volume usually will range from 20 to 150 gallons per acre (200 to 1400 liters per hectare) for dilute sprays, and 5 to 10 gallons per acre (50 to 100 liters per hectare) for concentrate ground sprays and aircraft applications. Both ground and aircraft methods of application may be used.
Minerva Fungicide should be added to the spray tank while filling with water. Keep the agitator running when filling spray tank and during spray operations. When tank mixing this product with other pesticides, observe the more restrictive label limitations and precautions. Do not exceed any label dosage rates. This product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing. Combination in the spray tank with other pesticides, fertilizers or surfactants is not recommended unless prior use has shown the combination to be physically compatible, effective and non-injurious under your conditions of use. When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Sipcam Agro USA recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) certified adjuvant.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE
Minerva Fungicide contains a Group 3 fungicide. Fungal isolates with acquired resistance to Group 3 may eventually dominate the fungal population if Group 3 fungicides are used repeatedly in the same field or in successive years as the primary method of control for targeted
species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by this product or other Group 3 fungicides. To delay fungicide/bactericide resistance consider:
• Avoiding the consecutive use of this product or other target site of action Group 3 fungicides that have a similar target site of action, on the same pathogens.
• Using tank-mixtures or premixes with fungicide/bactericides from different target site of action Groups as long as the involved products are all registered for the same use and are both effective at the tank mix or prepack rate on the pathogen(s) of concern.
• Basing fungicide use on a comprehensive IPM program.
• Monitoring treated fungal populations for loss of field efficacy.
• Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or Sipcam representative for fungicide resistance management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and resistant pathogens.
