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. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate. Ground Water Advisory: This pesticide has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in ground water. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. Surface Water Advisory: This pesticide can contaminate surface water through aerial and ground spray applications. Under some conditions, it may also have a high potential for runoff into surface water after application. These include poorly draining or wet soils with readily visible slopes toward adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas, areas overlaying extremely shallow ground water, areas with in- field canals or ditches that drain to surface P a g e | 3 water, areas not separated from adjacent surface waters with vegetated filter strips, and areas overlaying tile drainage systems that drain to surface water. DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in any manner inconsistent with its labeling. Read entire label before using this product. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or indirectly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE AND PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS ON THIS LABEL MAY RESULT IN POOR DISEASE CONTROL, CROP INJURY AND/OR ILLEGAL RESIDUES. [Optional state restriction language for the state of NY: Not for sale, distribution, or use in -- Counties of New York State.] RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT For resistance management, please note that F9651-2 contains both a Group 7 (Bixafen) and Group 3 (Tebuconazole) fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to F9651-2 and other Groups 7 or 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. Appropriate resistance-management strategies must be followed. To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: x Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different group that a re equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as labeled by the manufacturer. x Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide u se that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. x Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effec tively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. x Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development. x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advi sor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and pathogens. x For further information or to report suspected resistance cont act your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist.

P a g e | 5 SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT SENSITIVE AREAS: The pesticide must only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water, known habitats for threatened or endangered species, non- target crops) is minimal (e.g., when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas). Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment and weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions. The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications, public health uses or to applications using dry formulation. 1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or rotor. 2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air str eam and never be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed. The applicator must be familiar with and take into account the information covered below. INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE: The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions below). CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE: x Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest pract ical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. x Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer’s recommended pressures. For many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. x Number of nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that pro vide uniform coverage. x Nozzle Orientation - The nozzles must be oriented such that th e spray is released parallel to the airstream. This produces larger droplets than other orientations. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. x Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the inten ded application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low- drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift. BOOM LENGTH: For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width. APPLICATION HEIGHT: P a g e | 6 Applications must not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind. SWATH ADJUSTMENT: When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance must increase, with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.) WIND: Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 - 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed. Application must be avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator must be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift. TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY: When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry. TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS: Applications must not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. APPLICATION AND CALIBRATION TECHNIQUES FOR CHEMIGATION Apply this product only through center pivot, motorized lateral move, traveling gun, solid set and portable (wheel move, side roll, end tow, or hand move) irrigation system(s). 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 treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you must contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts. Do not apply this product through irrigation systems connected to a public water system. “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 per year. Controls for both irrigation water and pesticide injection systems must be functionally interlocked, to automatically terminate pesticide injection when the irrigation water pump motor stops. A person knowledgeable of the irrigation system and responsible for its operation shall P a g e | 7 be present to discontinue pesticide injection and make necessary adjustments, should the need arise. The irrigation water pipeline must be fitted with a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of treated irrigation water back toward the water source. The pipeline must also be fitted with a vacuum relief valve and low pressure drain, located between the irrigation water pump and the check valve, to prevent back-siphoning of treated irrigation water into the water source. Always inject F9651-2 Fungicide into irrigation water after it discharges from the irrigation pump and after it passes through the check valve. Never inject pesticides into the intake line on the suction side of the pump. Pesticide injection equipment must be fitted with a functional, normally closed, solenoid- operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump. Interlock this valve to the power system, to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the chemical supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually turned off. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. 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. Spray mixture in the chemical supply tank must be agitated always, otherwise settling and uneven application may occur. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. 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. F9651-2 Fungicide may be used through two basic types of sprinkler irrigation systems as outlined in Sections A and B below. Determine which type of system is in place, then refer to the appropriate directions provided for each type. A. Center Pivot, Motorized Lateral Move and Traveling Gun Irrig ation Equipment For injection of pesticides, these continuously moving systems must use a positive displacement injection pump, of either diaphragm or piston type, constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock and capable of injection at pressures approximately 2-3 times those encountered within the irrigation water line. Venturi applicator units cannot be used on these systems. Thoroughly mix specified amount of F9651-2 Fungicide for acreage to be covered into same amount of water used during calibration and inject into system continuously for one revolution or run. Mixture in the chemical supply tank must be continuously agitated during the injection run. Shut off injection equipment after one revolution or run but continue to operate irrigation system until F9651-2 Fungicide has been cleared from last sprinkler head. B. Solid Set and Portable (Wheel Move, Side Roll, End Tow, or H and Move) Irrigation Equipment With stationary systems, an effectively designed in-line venturi applicator unit is preferred which is constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides; however, a positive- displacement pump can also be used. Determine acreage covered by sprinkler. Fill tank of injection equipment with water and adjust flow to use contents over a thirty to forty-five-minute period. Mix desired amount of F9651-2 Fungicide for acreage to be covered with water so that the total mixture of F9651-2 Fungicide plus water in the injection tank is equal to the quantity of water used during calibration and operate entire system at normal pressures recommended by P a g e | 8 the manufacturer of injection equipment used, for amount of time established during calibration. Mixture in the chemical supply tank must be continuously agitated during the injection run. F9651-2 Fungicide can be injected at the beginning or end of the irrigation cycle or as a separate application. Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed and continue to operate irrigation system until F9651-2 Fungicide has been cleared from last sprinkler head. MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Ensure the sprayer tank, filter and lines are clean, then partially fill the spray tank with clean water. Measure the required amount of F9651-2 Fungicide and add this to the tank. Agitate to ensure thorough mixing while filling tank with remaining water. Maintain agitation during application and apply with properly calibrated application equipment. Do not allow spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods, as some chemical breakdown may occur. A high quality, nonionic spreader can be used as a spray tank additive for every application. F9651-2 Fungicide must be added to the tank before the addition of any adjuvant. Consult the adjuvant label or manufacturer for crop tolerance and safety information when used with F9651-2 Fungicide. APPLICATION TIMING F9651-2 Fungicide can be used in a preventive spray program to manage diseases in labeled crops. Complementary dual modes of action provided by F9651-2 Fungicide helps prevent the development of disease resistance. It is directed that this product be used within an Integrated Pest Management Program (IPM), rotating with non FRAC 3 or FRAC 7 fungicides. Carefully read, and understand, and follow all directions and precautions. Disease pressure and environmental conditions will determine application rates and the length of the spray intervals. Consult local disease advisory system recommendations to determine the predicted disease pressure and the associated application rates and intervals. COMPATIBILITY The tank mixing behavior of this fungicide with other pesticides has not been fully investigated. If tank mixing with other pesticides is desirable, conduct a jar test with rates and volumes of carrier typically used in an agricultural application. Look for signs of separation, globules, sludge, flakes or other precipitates. DO NOT tank mix with the other pesticide if the jar test with F9651-2 Fungicide has indicated incompatibility. Follow the most restrictive labeling on this label or the tank mixture partner. Before adding F9651-2 Fungicide along with other additives or pesticide products to a spray tank, a compatibility jar test must be conducted. 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. Compatibility Jar Test: F9651-2 Fungicide is compatible with most products, however not all have been tested. Use the following compatibility test to ensure physical compatibility. Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to approximately one quart of water with agitation. Add wettable powders and water dispersible granular products first, next liquid flowables, then emulsifiable concentrates, and last liquid soluble products. After thorough mixing, allow this mixture to stand for 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be readily remixed, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same P a g e | 9 procedure for adding products to the spray tank. Use tank mix combinations on a small number of plants before treating larger areas. When tank mixing, follow more restrictive labeling of any tank mix partner. Do not tank mix with any product that contains a prohibition on tank mixing. Before applying any tank mixture not specifically directed on this label, the crop safety of the target crop must be confirmed by applying the mixture to a small area of the target crop in accordance to the label instructions. FOLIAR APPLICATION Maximum benefit of F9651-2 Fungicide from foliar applications requires coverage both outside and inside the plant canopy. Thorough coverage of foliage is obtained by using proper spray pressure, a minimum of 10 gallons per acre, appropriate nozzles that provide uniform spray distribution and minimize drift, nozzle spacing and sprayer speed. Follow directions of nozzle manufacturer for nozzle pressures. ROTATIONAL CROP GUIDELINES: After making the last F9651-2 Fungicide application, rotational crops may be planted with the following intervals: 0 days F9651-2 Fungicide labeled crops 30 days Leafy crops 365 days Unlabeled crops RESTRICTIONS AERIAL APPLICATION: Do not apply in less than 2 gallons per acre. CHEMIGATION APPLICATION: Do not apply by flood systems. WATER BODIES: Do not apply when spray could drift into a body of water. FORAGE: Do not harvest or feed forage until number of days specified after last F9651-2 Fungicide application for each crop.

Apply lower rates early season. Application of high rate at flag leaf ligule emergence protects the upper foliage during critical grain fill period. Repeat applications at 10 to 14- day intervals. For optimum control of foliar diseases, a surfactant must be tank-mixed with F9651-2. F9651-2 needs two to four hours of drying time on plant foliage to move systemically into plant tissue and be resistant to weathering, before rain or irrigation occurs. For management of fungal pathogen resistance development, do not make more than 2 sequential applications per year before alternating to another fungicide from a FRAC group different from FRAC groups 7 and 3.
