User Safety Recommendations


Users should:
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet.
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as
possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.

Environmental Hazards
Benzovindiflupyr and azoxystrobin are toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Benzovindiflupyr is toxic to mammals.
Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated area.
For terrestrial uses: Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas
below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate.
The active ingredients in this product can be persistent for several months or longer.
Groundwater Advisory
Azoxystrobin has degradation products which have properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected
in groundwater. This chemical may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly
where the water table is shallow.
Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water or irrigation water. This is especially true
for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. A 15-foot level vegetative buffer strip between areas
to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the
potential loading of benzovindiflupyr and azoxystrobin from runoff water and sediment. Do not cultivate within 15
feet of the aquatic areas to allow growth of a vegetative filter strip. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoid-
ing applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours. Sound erosion control practices will
reduce this product’s potential to reach aquatic sediment via runoff.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
Elatus Fungicide is a broad-spectrum product containing two fungicides. It has preventive, systemic and curative
properties and may be used for the control of the listed plant diseases. Elatus Fungicide provides excellent disease
control of many leaf spots and powdery mildews. Elatus Fungicide is applied as a foliar spray and can be used in
block, alternating spray or tank-mix programs with other crop protection products. All applications must be made
according to the use directions that follow.
RESTRICTIONS
Elatus Fungicide is extremely phytotoxic to certain apple varieties.
DO NOT apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
DO NOT use spray equipment which has been previously used to apply Elatus Fungicide to spray apple trees. Even
trace amounts can cause unacceptable phytotoxicity to certain apple and crabapple varieties.
Aerial application is prohibited in New York State.
AVOID SPRAY DRIFT. Extreme care must be used to prevent injury to apple trees (and apple fruit).
DO NOT spray Elatus Fungicide where spray drift may reach apple trees.
DO NOT tank mix with undiluted fertilizer. Dilute the suspension fertilizer to 50% with water (1:1 fertilizer to water
ratio) before mixing with Elatus Fungicide.
DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond area intended for application. Conditions which may contribute
to drift include thermal inversion, wind speed and direction, sprayer nozzle/pressure combinations, spray droplet
size, etc. Contact your State Extension Agent for spray drift prevention guidelines in your area.
DO NOT use spray equipment which has been previously used to apply Elatus Fungicide to spray apple trees. Even
trace amounts can cause unacceptable phytotoxicity to certain apple and crabapple varieties.
PRECAUTION: AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.

USE INFORMATION
Application: Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control. Make no more spray solution than is
needed for application. Avoid spray overlap, as crop injury may occur.
Adjuvants: When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Syngenta recommends the use of a Chemical Producers
and Distributors Association certified adjuvant.
Use of Adjuvants: Under certain weather conditions (particularly high temperatures), Elatus Fungicide in combina-
tion with high rates of silicone-based or oil containing (petroleum or crop) additives or adjuvants may cause injury.
Do not exceed 0.125% adjuvant (v/v). Consult a Syngenta representative for more information concerning additives
or adjuvants.
A tank mixture with Dimethoate may cause crop injury.
Efficacy: Under certain conditions conducive to extended infection periods, use another registered fungicide for
additional applications if the maximum amount of Elatus Fungicide has been used. If resistant isolates to Group 7
or Group 11 fungicides are present, efficacy can be reduced for certain diseases. The higher rates in the rate range
and/or shorter spray intervals may be required under conditions of heavy infection pressure, with highly susceptible
varieties, or when environmental conditions are conducive to disease.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Elatus Fungicide should be integrated into an overall disease and pest manage-
ment strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Cultural practices known to reduce disease development
should be followed. Consult your local agricultural authorities for additional IPM strategies established for your
area. Elatus Fungicide may be used in State Agricultural Extension advisory (disease forecasting) programs which
recommend application timing based on environmental factors favorable for disease development.
Resistance Management

AZOXYSTROBIN GROUP 11 FUNGICIDE


BENZOVINDIFLUPYR GROUP 7 FUNGICIDE

Elatus Fungicide contains two fungicides - azoxystrobin, a strobilurin fungicide in Group 11 and benzovindiflupyr, a
succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) in Group 7. Fungal pathogens can develop resistance to products with the
same mode of action when used repeatedly. Because resistance development cannot be predicted, use of this prod-
uct should conform to resistance management strategies established for the crop and use area. Consult your local
or state agricultural authorities for resistance management strategies that are complementary to those in this label.
Resistance management strategies may include rotating and/or tank mixing with products having different modes
of action or limiting the total number of applications per season. Syngenta encourages responsible resistance man-
agement to ensure effective long-term control of the fungal diseases on this label. Elatus Fungicide should not be
alternated or tank mixed with any fungicide to which resistance has already developed.
As part of a resistance management strategy:
• Apply no more than 2 sequential applications unless otherwise stated in the crop section.
• When tank mixing or alternating, use an effective partner – one that provides satisfactory disease control when
used alone at the mixture rate.
• Apply early to keep fungal populations low.
• Incorporate integrated pest management (IPM) practices into your program which can help reduce disease
development and spread.
Rotational Crops Restrictions: See the following table for the crop rotational restrictions:

Crop Tolerance: Plant tolerance has been found to be acceptable for all crops on the label, however, not all possible
tank-mix combinations have been tested under all conditions. When possible, it is recommended to test the combi-
nations on a small portion of the crop to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application.
See precautions regarding apple phytotoxicity.
Greenhouse Restriction: To help manage fungicide resistance, do not use Elatus Fungicide for commercial trans-
plant production.
Spray Drift Management: To avoid spray drift, do not apply when conditions favor drift beyond the target area. The
interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. AVOIDING
SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE GROWER.

MIXING AND APPLICATION METHODS


Spray Equipment
Nozzles
• Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application.
• Nozzles should be the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom.
• Calibrate sprayer before use.
• It is suggested that screens be used to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging.
continued…
• Screens placed on suction side of pump should be 16-mesh or coarser.
• Do not place a screen in the recirculation line.
• Use 50-mesh or coarser screens between the pump and boom, and where required, at the nozzles.
• Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations.
Pump
• Use a pump with capacity to:
(1) Maintain 35-40 psi at nozzles.
(2) Provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension - this requires recirculation of 10% of tank
volume per minute.
• Use a jet agitator or liquid sparge tube for agitation.
• Do not air sparge.
For more information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer manufacturer’s and state recommenda-
tions. For specific local directions and spray schedules, consult the current state agricultural recommendations.
Mixing Instructions
• Elatus Fungicide is a wettable granule (WG) formulation.
• Do not tank mix with undiluted fertilizer. Dilute the suspension fertilizer to 50% with water (1:1 fertilizer to
water ratio) before mixing with Elatus Fungicide.
• Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation.
• Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product.
• Agitate the spray solution before and during application.
• Rinse spray tank thoroughly with clean water after each day’s use and dispose of pesticide rinsate by application
to an already treated area.
Elatus Fungicide Alone (No Tank Mix)
• Add 1/2-2/3 of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.
• With the agitator running, add Elatus Fungicide to the tank.
• Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.
• Begin application of the spray solution after Elatus Fungicide has completely dispersed into the mix water.
• Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed.
Elatus Fungicide + Tank Mixtures: Elatus Fungicide is usually compatible with all tank-mix partners listed on this
label. Do not mix with undiluted fertilizer. To determine the physical compatibility of Elatus Fungicide with other
products, use a jar test. Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to 1 qt of water. Add wet-
table powders and water dispersible granular products first, then liquid flowables, and emulsifiable concentrates
last. After thoroughly mixing, let stand for at least 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be remixed
readily, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same procedure for adding required
ingredients to the spray tank.
Tank Mixtures: All directions for use, crops/sites, use rates, dilution rates, precautions, and limitations which appear
on the tank-mix product label must be observed. The label dosage for the tank-mix partner is not to be exceeded.
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and
follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank
mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in
the tank mixture.
Mixing in the Spray Tank
• DO NOT tank mix with undiluted fertilizer. Dilute the suspension fertilizer to 50% with water (1:1 fertilizer to
water ratio) before mixing with Elatus Fungicide.
• Add 1/2-2/3 of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.
• With the agitator running, add the tank-mix partner(s) into the tank in the same order as described above.
• Allow the material to completely dissolve and disperse into the mix water. Continue agitation while adding the
remainder of the water and Elatus Fungicide to the spray tank.
• Allow Elatus Fungicide to completely disperse.
• Spray the mixture with the agitator running.
Application Instructions
Elatus Fungicide may be applied with all types of spray equipment commonly used for making ground and aerial
applications. Proper adjustments and calibration of spraying equipment to give good canopy penetration and cov-
erage is essential for good disease control.
Ground Application – Broadcast Spray
• Apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre, unless specified otherwise.
• Do not apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
• Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control.
Ground Application – In-Furrow or Banded Application
• To calculate the total ounces per acre when the rate is given as oz product per 1000 linear feet, use the
following equation:
43,560 ft2 divided by row width (ft) = the number of linear feet
Acre Acre

Linear feet divided by 1000 ft X oz product = oz product


Acre 1000 linear ft Acre
• Refer to directions in crop sections for gallons per acre and timing.
Ground Application
• Shut off the sprayer when row ends.
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING RESTRICTIONS WHEN SPRAYING IN THE VICINITY OF AQUATIC AREAS SUCH AS LAKES,
RESERVOIRS, RIVERS, PERMANENT STREAMS, MARSHES OR NATURAL PONDS, ESTUARIES, AND COMMERCIAL FISH
PONDS.
• Do not apply within 15 ft of bodies of water such as lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, natural ponds,
marshes or estuaries.
• Do not cultivate within 15 ft of aquatic areas in order to allow growth of a vegetative filter strip.
• Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift to aquatic areas. Do not apply when gusts or sustained winds
exceed 10 mph.
• Do not apply during a temperature inversion. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas.
Aerial Application
• For aerial applications, mount the spray boom on the aircraft so as to minimize the drift caused by wing tip
vortices. Use the minimum practical boom length, which must not exceed 75% of wing span or rotor diameter.
• Use the largest droplet size consistent with good pest control. Formation of very small droplets may be minimized
by appropriate nozzle selection, by orientating nozzles away from the air stream as much as possible, and by
avoiding excessive spray boom pressure.
• Use only on crops where aerial applications are indicated.
• Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control.
• Apply in a minimum of 2 gallons of water per acre unless specified otherwise.
• Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when excessive spray drift
may occur.
• Risk of exposure to aquatic areas can be reduced by avoiding applications when wind direction is toward the
aquatic area.
Aerial Spray Restrictions
Observe the following restrictions when spraying in the vicinity of aquatic areas such as lakes, reservoirs, rivers,
permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, estuaries and commercial fish ponds.
• Aerial application is prohibited in New York State.
• Do not apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
• Do not apply by air within 150 ft of lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, estuaries
and commercial fish ponds.
• Release spray at the lowest height consistent with pest control and flight safety. Do not make applications more
than 10 feet above the crop canopy.
• Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift to aquatic areas. Do not apply when gusts or sustained winds
exceed 10 mph.
• Low humidity and high temperatures increase the evaporation rate of spray droplets and therefore the likeli-
hood of increased spray drift to aquatic area. Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/or high
temperatures.
• Do not apply during a temperature inversion. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas.
ATTENTION
Elatus Fungicide is extremely phytotoxic to certain apple varieties.
Restriction: DO NOT use spray equipment which has been previously used to apply Elatus Fungicide to spray apple
trees. Even trace amounts can cause unacceptable phytotoxicity to certain apple and crabapple varieties.
AVOID SPRAY DRIFT. Extreme care must be used to prevent injury to apple trees (and apple fruit).
DO NOT spray Elatus Fungicide where spray drift may reach apple trees.
DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond area intended for application. Conditions which may contribute
to drift include thermal inversion, wind speed and direction, sprayer nozzle/pressure combinations, spray droplet
size, etc. Contact your State Extension Agent for spray drift prevention guidelines in your area.
DO NOT use spray equipment which has been previously used to apply Elatus Fungicide to spray apple trees. Even
trace amounts can cause unacceptable phytotoxicity to certain apple and crabapple varieties.
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.
Application Through Irrigation Systems (Chemigation)
• Use only on crops where chemigation is specified on this label.
• Apply this product only through center pivot, solid set, hand move, or moving wheel irrigation systems. Do not
apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.
• Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution
of the product in water.
• Apply in 0.1-0.25 inches/acre. Excessive water may reduce efficacy.
• If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manu-
facturers, or other experts.
• Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public
water system, unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
• A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision
of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
Operating Instructions
1. The system must contain a functional check-valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately
located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water-source contamination from backflow.
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check-valve to prevent the
flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located
on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being
withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump
when the water pump motor stops.
5. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump
motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump),
effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being
fitted with a system interlock.
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
Center Pivot Irrigation Equipment
Notes: (1) Use only with drive systems which provide uniform water distribution. (2) Do not use end guns when
chemigating Elatus Fungicide through center pivot systems because of non-uniform application.
• Determine the size of the area to be treated.
• Determine the time required to apply 1/8-1/2 inch of water over the area to be treated when the system and injec-
tion equipment are operated at normal pressures as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. When applying
Elatus Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform
distribution. Run the system at 80-95% of the manufacturer’s rated capacity.
• Using water, determine the injection pump output when operated at normal line pressure.
• Determine the amount of Elatus Fungicide required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system.
• Add the required amount of Elatus Fungicide and sufficient water to meet the injection time requirements to
the solution tank.
• Make sure the system is fully charged with water before starting injection of the Elatus Fungicide solution. Time
the injection to last at least as long as it takes to bring the system to full pressure.
• Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period.
• Continue to operate the system until the Elatus Fungicide solution has cleared the sprinkler head.
Solid Set, Hand Move, and Moving Wheel Irrigation Equipment
• Determine the acreage covered by the sprinklers.
• Fill injector solution tank with water and adjust flow rate to use the contents over a 20- to 30-minute interval.
When applying Elatus Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while
maintaining uniform distribution.
• Determine the amount of Elatus Fungicide required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system.
• Add the required amount of Elatus Fungicide into the same quantity of water used to calibrate the injection
period.
• Operate the system at the same pressure and time interval established during the calibration.
• Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. Continue to operate the system until the Elatus Fungicide
solution has cleared the last sprinkler head.
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS
1. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if
such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at
least 60 days out of the year.
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone,
back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pes-
ticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be discharged into
a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between the
outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter
of the fill pipe.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the
flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
4. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on
the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being with-
drawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
5. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump
when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases
to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effec-
tively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with
a system interlock.
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
