GROUP 3A INSECTICIDE

READ SAFETY DIRECTIONS BEFORE OPENING OR USING

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING For insecticide resistance management, Pyganic is a Group 3A insecticide. PyGanic is not intended to be the sole foundation of pest control but should be used as part of an integrated pest management program. Some naturally occurring insect biotypes resistant to PyGanic and other Group 3A insecticides may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if PyGanic or other Group 3A insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of PyGanic on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Sumitomo Chemical Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of PyGanic to control resistant insects.

MIXING: Add PyGanic to water at the recommended rate and mix well before spraying. Maintain agitation or agitate frequently while spraying. Mix only enough for immediate use.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS DO NOT apply in direct sunlight or when temperature exceeds 32°C. Best applied just before dusk or early morning before sun is at full strength. Spraying should begin when insects first appear. DO NOT wait until the plants are heavily infested. Repeat as required to maintain effective control. It is recommended that the final spray mix be buffered to a pH of 5.5 – 7.0. When first using PyGanic, always treat a few plants of each species to ensure crop safety before treating large areas. PyGanic is a contact insecticide that will kill a broad range of insects including beneficial insects when present. PyGanic has very limited residual activity. Therefore, to ensure good control, complete coverage of the target crop is necessary.

Special Mixing and Application Instructions for Tree and Vine Crops: Dilute Spraying

• Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the crop being sprayed.
• Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy. Apply sufficient water to cover the crop to the point of run-off. Avoid excessive run-off.
• The required water volume may be determined by applying different test volumes, using different settings on the sprayer, from industry guidelines or expert advice.
• Add the amount of product specified in the Directions for Use table for each 100 L of water. Spray to the point of run-off.
• The required dilute spray volume will change and the sprayer set up and operation may also need to be changed, as the crop grows.

Concentrate Spraying

• Use a sprayer designed and set up for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of run-off) and matched to the crop being sprayed.
• Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy using your chosen water volume.
• Determine an appropriate dilute spray volume (See Dilute Spraying above) for the crop canopy. This is needed to calculate the concentrate mixing rate.
• The mixing rate for concentrate spraying can then be calculated in the following way:

EXAMPLE ONLY i. Dilute spray volume as determined above: For example 1500 L/ha ii. Your chosen concentrate spray volume: For example 500 L/ha iii. The concentration factor in this example is 3X (i.e. 1500 L / 500 L = 3)

® PyGanic is a fast acting botanical insecticide derived from Chrysanthemums that provides short-term control of several insect pests by contact action on fruit and vegetable crops, as per the Directions for Use table.

iv. If the dilute label rate is 150 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 3 x 150, that is 450 mL/100 L of concentrate spray.

• The chosen spray volume, amount of product per 100 L of water, and the sprayer set up and operation may need to be changed as the crop grows.
• For further information on concentrate spraying, users are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices.

COMPATIBILITY: DO NOT mix PyGanic with lime sulphur, Bordeaux mixture or any other alkaline materials. This product may be tank mixed with other insecticides, acaricides, fungicides, adjuvants, and wetting agents. This application should conform to accepted precautions and directions for both products. Tank mix applications must be made in accordance with the more restrictive of label limitations and precautions. No label application rates may be exceeded. This product cannot be mixed with any product with label prohibitions against such use. Prior to tank mixing, conduct a small-scale physical compatibility test using the proper proportions of products and water to ensure the physical compatibility of the mixture.

RE-ENTRY PERIOD DO NOT re-enter treated area until the spray has dried, approximately 15 minutes after the application.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT Toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms. DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK Dangerous to bees. DO NOT spray any plants in flower while bees are foraging.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not re-cycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty container to an approved water management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose, clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots, in compliance with relevant local, state or territory government regulations. DO NOT burn empty containers or product.

SAFETY DIRECTIONS May irritate the eyes and skin. Repeated exposure may cause allergic disorders. Sensitive workers should use protective clothing. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. DO NOT inhale vapour or spray mist. Wash hands after use.

FIRST AID If poisoning occurs contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone Australia 13 11 26.
