Application Instructions

• Apply the specified rate of Insignia as instructed in theUse Directions sections with ground or aerial sprayequipment Use the shorter specified application intervaland/or the higher specified rate when prolonged favorable disease conditions exist

• Apply Insignia using sufficient water volume and pressure for adequate coverage of the foliage

• Calibrate spray equipment prior to use

• For maximum efficacy apply Insignia prior to or in theearly stages of disease development Use of Insignia asa late curative or eradicant treatment may not result insatisfactory disease control

• After application allow foliage to dry prior to mowing orirrigating (exceptions see brown ring patch fairy ringand Pythium root dysfunction)

• Actual length of disease control will vary depending onenvironmental conditions disease pressure and management practices

Aerial ApplicationAerial application is permitted only on sod farms and thefollowing production ornamentals

• Container and field nurseries• Flower bulb production• Forest and conifer nurseries

Apply Insignia at the rates indicated in the UseDirections sections in no less than 10 gallons of spraysolution per acre Repeat applications at the specifiedinterval as necessary DO NOT apply when conditionsfavor drift from target area

DO NOT apply by air in New York State except aspermitted under FIFRA Section 24(c), Special LocalNeed Registration

r fSpray Drift Management

DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond areaintended for application Conditions that contribute to driftinclude thermal inversion wind speed and direction spraynozzle/pressure combinations spray droplet size temperature/humidity etc Contact your state extension agent forspray drift prevention guidelines in your area All application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers Avoiding spray drift at theapplication site is the responsibility of the applicator

Aerial Application Methods and EquipmentThe interaction of many equipment related and weatherrelated factors determines the potential for spray drift Theapplicator and the grower are responsible for consideringall these factors when making decisions

DO NOT apply under circumstances where possible driftto unprotected persons to food forage or other plantingsthat might be damaged or crops thereof rendered unfit forsale use or consumption can occur

The following drift management requirements must befollowed to avoid off target drift movement from aerialapplications to agricultural field crops

1 The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boommust not exceed 3/4 the length of the fixed wingspanor rotor blade diameter

2 Nozzles must always point backward parallel with theairstream and never be pointed downward more than45 degrees

Where states have more stringent regulations they mustbe observed

Information on Droplet SizeThe most effective way to reduce drift potential is to applylarge droplets Use the largest droplet size consistent withacceptable efficacy Applying larger droplets reduces driftpotential but will not prevent drift if applications are madeimproperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions(see Wind Temperature and Humidity andTemperature Inversions)

Controlling Droplet Size

• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume Nozzles with higher ratedflows produce larger droplets

• Pressure - DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufacturersrecommended pressures For many nozzle types lowerpressure produces larger droplets When higher flowrates are needed use higher flow rate nozzles instead ofincreasing pressure

• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number ofnozzles that provide uniform coverage

• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that thespray is released parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is recommendedpractice Significant deflection from the horizontal willreduce droplet size and increase drift potential

• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed forthe intended application With most nozzle types narrower spray angles produce larger droplets Considerusing low drift nozzles Solid stream nozzles orientedstraight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift

WindDrift potential is lowest when wind speed does not exceed10 mph However many factors including droplet sizeand equipment type determine drift potential at any givenspeed Application must be avoided below 2 mph due tovariable wind direction and high inversion potential Localterrain can influence wind patterns Every applicator mustbe familiar with local wind patterns and how they affectspray drift

Temperature and HumidityLow humidity and high temperatures increase the evaporation of spray droplets and therefore the likelihood ofincreased spray drift

Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/orhigh temperatures When making applications in low relafive humidity set up equipment to produce larger dropletsto compensate for evaporation

Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions areboth hot and dry

Temperature InversionsApplications must not occur during a temperature mversion because drift potential is high Temperature inversionsrestrict vertical air mixing which causes small suspendeddroplets to remain in a concentrated cloud This cloud canmove in unpredictable directions due to the light variablewinds common during inversions Temperature inversionsare characterized by increasing temperatures with altitudeand are common on nights with limited cloud cover andlight to no wind They begin to form as the sun sets andoften continue into the morning Their presence can beindicated by ground fog however if fog is not presentinversions can also be identified by the movement ofsmoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates aninversion while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing

Sensitive AreasThe pesticide should only be applied when the potentialfor drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e g bodies of water ornontarget crops) is minimal and when wind is blowingaway from the sensitive areas

Use Precautions for Sprinkler and DripIrrigation Applications

Drip IrrigationInsignia® fungicide may be applied through drip irrigationsystems to potted ornamentals or to bedded field grownornamentals for soilborne disease control Apply 8 to

r c16 ozs Insignia® fungicide per acre as a preventive disease application The soil or potting media should haveadequate moisture capacity prior to drip application

Terminate drip irrigation at fungicide depletion from themam feed supply tank or after 6 hours from startwhichever is shorter For maximum efficacy subsequentirrigation (water only) should be delayed for at least24 hours following drip application

Sprinkler IrrigationInsignia may be applied through sprinkler irrigation to turfto potted ornamentals or to bedded field grown ornamentals Apply this product through sprinkler irrigationsystems including center pivot lateral move end towside [wheel] roll traveler big gun solid set or hand moveirrigation systems DO NOT apply this product throughany other type of irrigation system except as specified onthis label

Apply with center pivot or continuous move equipmentdistributing 1/2 acre inch or less during treatment In general use the least amount of water required for properdistribution and coverage If stationary systems (solid sethandlmes or wheel lines other than continuous move) areused inject this product into no more than the last 20 to30 minutes of the set DO NOT apply when wind speedfavors drift beyond the area intended for treatment Plantinjury lack of effectiveness or illegal pesticide residues inthe crop can result from nonuniform treated waterThorough coverage of foliage is required for good controlMaintain good agitation during the entire application period If you have questions about calibration contact aState Extension Service specialist equipment manufacturers or other experts The system must contain a functionalcheck valve vacuum relief valve and low pressure drainappropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to preventwater source contamination from backflow

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functionalautomatic quick closing check valve to prevent the flow offluid back toward the injection pump The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional normallyclosed solenoid operated valve located on the intake sideof the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supplytank when the irrigation system is either automatically ormanually shut down The system must contain functionalinterlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticideinjection pump when the water pump motor stops Theirrigation line or water pump must include a functionalpressure switch which will stop the water pump motorwhen the water pressure decreases to the point wherepesticide distribution is adversely affected Systems mustuse a metering pump such as a positive displacementinjection pump (e g diaphragm pump) effectively designedand constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlockAllow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through alllines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water Aperson knowledgeable of the chemigation system andresponsible for its operation or under the supervision of

the responsible person shall shut the system down andmake necessary adjustments should the need ariseDO NOT connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a publicwater system unless the pesticide label prescribed safetydevices for public water systems are in place

Specific Instructions for Public WaterSystems

1 Public water system means a system for the provisionto the public of piped water for human consumption ifsuch system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals dailyat least 60 days out of the year

2 Chemigation systems connected to public water systerns must contain a functional reduced pressure zoneback flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent inthe water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction As an option to the RPZ the waterfrom the public water system should be discharged intoa reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction Thereshall be a complete physical break (air gap) betweenthe outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rimof the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameterof the fill pipe

3 The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional automatic quick closing check valve to preventthe flow of fluid back toward the injection pump

4 The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional normally closed solenoid operated valve locatedon the intake side of the injection pump and connectedto the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation systemis either automatically or manually shut down

5 The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injectionpump when the water pump motor stops or in caseswhere there is no water pump when the water pressuredecreases to the point where pesticide distribution isadversely affected

6 Systems must use a metering pump such as a positivedisplacement injection pump (e g diaphragm pump)effectively designed and constructed of materials thatare compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock

7 DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyondthe area intended for treatment

Resistance Management

Insignia contains pyraclostrobm a Group 11 fungicideand is effective against pathogens resistant to fungicideswith modes of action different from those of Qol fungicides (target site of action Group 11) such as thedicarboximides sterol inhibitors benzimidazoles orphenylamides Fungal isolates resistant to Group 11fungicides such as pyraclostrobm azoxystrobm andtnfloxystrobm may eventually dominate the fungal

c /TOpopulation if Group 11 fungicides are used predominantlyand repeatedly in the same area in successive years asthe primary method of control for the targeted pathogenspecies This may result in reduction of disease control byInsignia® fungicide or other Group 11 fungicides

To maintain the performance of Insignia DO NOTexceed the total number of sequential applications ofInsignia Adhere to the label instructions regarding theconsecutive use of Insignia or other target site of actionGroup 11 fungicides that have a similar site of action onthe same pathogens

The following recommendations may be consideredto delay the development of fungicide resistance

1 Tank mixtures Use tank mixtures with fungicidesfrom different target site of action groups that areregistered/permitted for the same use and that areeffective against the pathogens of concern Use at leastthe minimum labeled rates of each fungicide in the tankmix

2 IPM Insignia should be integrated into an overall disease and pest management program Follow culturalpractices known to reduce disease developmentInsignia may be used in advisory (disease forecasting)programs which recommend application timing basedon environmental factors favorable for disease development

3 Monitoring Monitor efficacy of all fungicides used inthe disease management program against the targetedpathogen and record other factors that may influencefungicide performance and/or disease development If aGroup 11 target site fungicide such as Insigniaappears to be less effective against a pathogen that itpreviously controlled or suppressed contact a BASFrepresentative or local expert for further investigation

In turfgrass DO NOT make more than two (2) sequentialapplications of Insignia for Pythium blight gray leaf spotdollar spot or anthracnose Then alternate to an effectivenonstrobilunn fungicide before reapplying Insignia

DO NOT make more than three (3) consecutive applications of Insignia for all other turfgrass diseases Thenalternate to an effective nonstrobilunn fungicide beforereapplying Insignia

In ornamental plants, DO NOT make more than two (2)sequential applications of Insignia Then alternate with afungicide of a different mode of action before reapplyingInsignia DO NOT alternate Insignia with otherGroup 11 fungicides

Addition of Additives

DO NOT use with organosilicate based adjuvants or injurymay occur Because of the large number of additives oradjuvants that may be used, neither the manufacturer northe seller has determined whether Insignia can be usedsafely with all additives

Integrate Insignia into an overall disease and pest management program that includes selection of varieties withdisease tolerance optimum plant populations proper fertilization pruning plant residue management propertiming and placement of irrigation and manipulation ofenvironmental conditions to prevent fungal developmentwhere possible

Plant Tolerance

The phytotoxic potential of Insignia has been assessedon a wide variety of common ornamental plants with nophytotoxicity observed Refer to Table 7 for the list ofplants shown to be tolerant to Insignia Not all plantspecies and their varieties and cultivars have been testedfor tolerance to Insignia possible tank mix combinationsof Insignia pesticide treatments preceding or followingthose of Insignia and combinations of Insignia withadjuvants or surfactants Local conditions can also influence plant tolerance and may not match those underwhich BASF has conducted testing Therefore beforeusing Insignia test the product on a sample of the plantto be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response will notoccur prior to large scale use

Use with Additives

Label directions are based on data without additivesAdditives or spray adjuvants are usually not necessary foruse with Insignia If additives or spray adjuvants areincluded use only surfactants approved for ornamentalplants in combination with Insignia Test the product on asample of the plant to be treated to ensure that injury willnot occur prior to large scale use DO NOT use

organosilicone based adjuvants with Insignia or injurymay result on certain ornamental species Always test tankmixes on a small group of representative plants prior tobroadscale use
