Restraints DO NOT apply more than 4 sprays per season DO NOT apply this product as a post-infection curative spray on crops as this will favour the development of resistant disease strains

Situation Disease Rate Critical Comments
Turf Pythium Leaf Blight, Pythium Root Rot, Seedling Damping Off (Pythium spp) 1.7 to 3.5 L/ha or 17 to 35 mL/100 m² Apply SUBDUE MAXX in a preventative fungicide program containing fungicides from different chemical groups. Begin applications before symptoms occur when conditions first favour disease and continue applications while conditions remain favourable for disease development using registered Pythium fungicides. Apply no more than 2 consecutive SUBDUE MAXX applications at 14 to 21 day intervals for Pythium. Refer to Application section for detailed information.

NOT TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE, OR IN ANY MANNER, CONTRARY TO THIS LABEL UNLESS AUTHORISED UNDER APPROPRIATE LEGISLATION.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Mixing Add the required amount of product directly to the spray tank and mix well. SUBDUE MAXX is a micro emulsion concentrate (MEC) with minimal odour because the product does not contain petroleum solvents. SUBDUE MAXX mixes completely with water and may be tank mixed with many commonly used fungicides and liquid fertilisers.

Compatibility SUBDUE MAXX is compatible with Banner® Maxx Turf Fungicide, Headway® Maxx Turf Fungicide, Heritage® Maxx Turf Fungicide and Primo® Maxx Turf Growth Regulator.

Application Ensure even application in order to achieve even disease control. Avoid overlapping sprays. Leaf and Crown Diseases: Application volume for leaf and crown infecting diseases (Pythium Leaf Blight) should be adequate to ensure thorough and even coverage of the turf leaves and penetration to the crowns. Ideal application volume should be 350 to 500 L/ha. Example: For best results use medium [eg XR Teejet* (11004 or 10005)] to coarse [eg Turbo Teejet* or AIXR Teejet* (11004 or 11005)] nozzles, at 5 km/h and 3 bar pressure. In higher cut turf (≥15 mm) a significant spray shielding effect can occur, impacting negatively on spray penetration and even coverage at low application volumes. Root Diseases: Application volumes for root infecting diseases (Pythium Root Rot and Seedling Damping Off) should be as high as possible (approximately 1000 L/ha) to ensure placement close to the soil surface. When lower application volumes are used, washing in should commence as soon as possible after application. Example: For best results use extremely coarse droplets [eg Turbo Floodjet (TF5) or TurfJet (TTJ10)] and total application volume of approximately 1000 L/ha. Preferably spray onto wet or dewy grass. Irrigate with 6 to 10 mm of water commencing within 1 hour of application.

Fungicide Resistance Warning Group 4 Fungicide SUBDUE MAXX is a member of the phenylamide group of fungicides. For fungicide resistance management the product is a Group 4 fungicide. Some naturally occurring individual fungi resistant to the product and other Group 4 fungicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any fungal population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the fungi population if these fungicides are used repeatedly. These resistant fungi will not be controlled by this product and other Group 4 fungicides, thus resulting in a reduction in efficacy and possible yield loss. Since the occurrence of resistant fungi is difficult to detect prior to use, Syngenta Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of this product to control resistant fungi.


PRECAUTION Re-entry Period DO NOT allow entry into treated areas until the spray has dried.

PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK DO NOT graze treated turf/lawn or feed turf/lawn clippings from any treated area to poultry or livestock.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

If no landfill is available, bury the containers below 500 mm in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots.
