DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Section 9: Crops, Disease, Rate and Timing

 

Crop Disease Rate (mL/ha) Remarks
Wheat
(spring, winter, durum)
Suppression of:
Fusarium head blight (Gibberella zeae/Fusarium graminearum)
625
  • Fusarium head blight (scab) risk is greater when the weather is warm and wet at the flowering to soft dough stages.
  • The application of TILMOR 240 EC FUNGICIDE for protection against fusarium head blight (scab) should be considered when these weather conditions are forecasted for this stage of wheat development.
  • Timing of application is critical: For suppression of fusarium head blight, apply TILMOR 240 EC FUNGICIDE within the time period from when at least 75% of the wheat heads on the main stem are fully emerged to when 50% of the heads on the main stem are in flower.
  • Spray coverage is essential: Spray equipment must be set up to ensure thorough coverage of all wheat heads.
Control of:

Resistance Management Advisory for Cereal Crops:

 

Repeated application of standalone DMI Fungicides should not be used on the same crop in one season against risky pathogens such as cereal powdery mildew in areas of high disease pressure for that particular pathogen. Mixture products, tank mixtures or alternation with fungicides having a different mode of action have been shown to protect against the development of resistant forms of disease.

 

TANK MIXES

 

This product may be tank mixed with a fertilizer, a supplement, or with registered pest control products, whose labels also allow tank mixing, provided the entirety of both labels, including Directions For Use, Precautions, Restrictions, Environmental Precautions, and Spray Buffer Zones are followed for each product. In cases where these requirements differ between the tank mix partner labels, the most restrictive label must be followed. Do not tank mix products containing the same active ingredient unless specifically listed on this label.

 

In some cases, tank mixing pest control products can result in reduced pesticide efficacy or increased host crop injury. The user should contact Bayer CropScience Inc. at 1-888-283-6847 or www.cropscience.bayer.ca for information before applying any tank mix that is not specifically recommended on this label.

 

Do not tank mix with herbicides or fungicides unless specifically listed on this label.

 

Bayer CropScience Inc. has not fully assessed performance (efficacy) and/or crop tolerance (phytotoxicity) of all potential tank mixes under all environmental conditions or for all crop varieties. Tank mixes that are not specifically listed on this label should be tested on a small area first, under local conditions and using standard practices, to confirm the tank mix is suitable for widespread application.

 

To determine the physical compatibility of this product with other products, use a jar test. Always read and follow label directions including WAMLEGS mixing order.

Section 13: RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

 

For resistance management, please note that TILMOR 240 EC FUNGICIDE contains Group 3 fungicides. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to TILMOR 240 EC FUNGICIDE and other Group 3 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Other resistance mechanisms that are not linked to site of action but specific for individual chemicals, such as enhanced metabolism, may also exist. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.

 

To delay fungicide resistance:
