PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS
CAUTION
Harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. Causes moderate eye irritation.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor or spray mist. Wash
thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, or
using tobacco. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
•	Long-sleeved	shirt	and	long	pants
•	Chemical	resistant	gloves	made	of	any	waterproof	material
•	Shoes	plus	socks
Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions exist for
washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
Engineering Control Statements
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the
requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides
[40	 CFR	 170.240(d)(4-6)],	 the	 handler	 PPE	 requirements	 may	 be	 reduced	 or	 modified	 as
specified	in	the	WPS.
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.
•	Wash the outside of gloves before removing.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
This	product	is	toxic	to	mammals,	fish,	aquatic	invertebrates,	and	freshwater/estuarines/marine
aquatic plants. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or
to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Runoff may be hazardous to aquatic
organisms in neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment
washwater or rinsate.
Groundwater Advisory: Prothioconazole-desthio (a degradate of prothioconazole) and
tebuconazole are known to leach through soil into ground water under certain conditions as a
result of label use. Use of this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where
the water table is shallow, may result in ground-water contamination.

Surface Water Advisory: This product may contaminate water through drift of spray in wind. Drift
and runoff are hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. This product
has a high potential for runoff for several months or more after application. Poorly draining soils
and soils with shallow water tables are more prone to produce runoff that contains this product.
A level, well maintained 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 for
contamination of water from rainfall-runoff. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding
applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly
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.
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection
Standard, 40 CFR part 170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of
agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of
agricultural	pesticides.	It	contains	requirements	for	training,	decontamination,	notification,
and	emergency	assistance.	It	also	contains	specific	instructions	and	exceptions	pertaining
to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-
entry interval (REI). The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are
covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the REI of 12 hours.
PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection
Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants,
soil, or water is:
•	Coveralls
•	Chemical-resistant	gloves	made	of	any	waterproof	material
•	Shoes	plus	socks
PRODUCT INFORMATION
PROVOST® SILVER is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide for the control of Ascomycetes,
Basidiomycetes and Deuteromycetes diseases in peanut. Under conditions conducive to
extended infection periods or high disease pressure, another registered fungicide may be
needed once this product’s maximum application rates have been reached. Under these
conditions use another fungicide registered for the crop/disease.
Resistance Management Statement
PROVOST SILVER is a Group 3 fungicide, which exhibits no known cross-resistance to other
fungicide groups. However, fungal pathogens are known to develop resistance to products
with the same mode of action when used repeatedly. Any fungal population may contain or
develop individuals that are resistant to PROVOST SILVER and other Group 3 fungicides. If
Group	3	fungicides	are	used	repeatedly	in	the	same	field	or	in	successive	years	as	the	primary
method of control for targeted diseases, the resistant isolates may eventually dominate the
fungal population. Because resistance development cannot be predicted, the use of this product
should conform to resistance management strategies established for the crop and use area.
Such strategies may include rotation and /or tank mixing with products having different modes
of action or limiting the total number of applications per season. Contact your local extension
specialist,	certified	crop	 advisor,	and/or	 manufacturer	for	 fungicide	resistance	management
and/or	integrated	disease	management	directions	for	specific	crops	and	pathogen	populations.
Bayer CropScience encourages responsible resistance management to ensure effective long-
term control of the fungal diseases on this label.
Spray Equipment/Volumes
PROVOST SILVER may be applied by either ground, aerial and/or chemigation application
equipment. Equipment must be properly calibrated before use.
For ground application, apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. For aerial
application, apply in a minimum of 2 gallons of spray solution per acre unless stated differently
in the USE DIRECTIONS FOR SPECIFIC CROPS section. Check equipment calibration
frequently. Complete coverage and uniform application are essential for the most effective

results, especially when lower spray volumes are applied. If necessary, increase the spray
volume per acre for complete crop coverage.
Mixing Procedures
Prepare no more spray mixture than is necessary for the immediate operation. Thoroughly
clean spray equipment before using this product. Maintain maximum agitation throughout the
spray operation. Do not let the spray mixture stand overnight in the spray tank. Flush the
spray equipment thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to the previously treated
area or dispose of the rinsate according to local regulations. Do not tank mix with products
containing a prohibition against tank mixing. Follow the most restrictive labeling requirements
of any tank mix product.
PROVOST SILVER Alone: Add 1/2 of the required amount of water to the mix tank. With the
agitator running, add the PROVOST SILVER to the tank. Continue agitation while adding the
remainder of the water. Begin application of the solution after the product has completely and
uniformly dispersed into the mix water. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.
PROVOST SILVER + Tank-Mix Partners:  Add 1/2 of the required amount of water to the mix
tank. Start the agitator running before adding any of the tank-mix partners. In general, tank-
mix partners should be added in this order: products packaged in water-soluble packaging*,
wettable	powders,	wettable	granules	(dry	flowables),	liquid	flowables,	liquids,	and	emulsifiable
concentrates. Always allow each tank-mix partner to become fully and uniformly dispersed
before	adding	the	next	product.	Provide	sufficient	agitation	while	adding	the	remainder	of	the
water. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.
* Note:  When using PROVOST SILVER in tank mixtures, all products in water-soluble
packaging should be added to the tank before any other tank-mix partner, including PROVOST
SILVER. Allow the water-soluble packaging to completely disperse before adding any other
tank-mix partner to the tank.
If using PROVOST SILVER in a tank mixture, observe all directions for use, crop/sites, use
rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations; which appear on the tank-mix product
label. No label dosage rate must be exceeded, and the most restrictive label precautions and
limitations must be followed. This product must not be mixed with any product that prohibits
such mixing. Tank mixtures or other applications of products referenced on this label are
permitted only in those states in which the referenced products are registered.
PROVOST SILVER is compatible with most insecticide, fungicide, herbicide, and foliar nutrient
products. However, the physical compatibility of PROVOST SILVER with tank-mix partners
should be tested before use. To determine the physical compatibility of PROVOST SILVER
with other products, use a jar test, as described below.
Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to 1 qt. of water. Add
wettable	powders	and	water-dispersible	granular	products	first,	then	liquids	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. For
further information, contact your local Bayer CropScience representative.
The crop safety of all potential tank mixes including additives and other pesticides on all crops
has	not	been	tested.	Before	applying	any	tank	mixture	not	specified	on	this	label,	the	safety
to	the	target	crop	should	be	confirmed.	To	test	for	crop	safety,	apply	PROVOST	SILVER	to	the
target crop in a small area and in accordance with label instructions for the target crop.
Aerial Application: Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be
obtained or when excessive spray drift may occur. Aerial application is prohibited in  New York
State.
Chemigation Application: Apply PROVOST SILVER through irrigation equipment only to
crops	for	which	chemigation	is	specified	on	this	label.
PROVOST SILVER alone or in combination with other pesticides, which are registered for
application through irrigation systems, may be applied through irrigation systems. 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. Illegal pesticide residues
in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water. If you have questions about
calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers,
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 chemigation PROVOST SILVER 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 injection equipment are operated
at normal pressures as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. When applying
PROVOST SILVER 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 PROVOST SILVER required to treat the area covered by
the	irrigation	system.	Add	the	required	amount	of	PROVOST	SILVER	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 PROVOST SILVER 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 PROVOST
SILVER solution has cleared the sprinkler head.
Solid Set, Hand Move, and Moving Wheel Irrigation Equipment
When applying PROVOST SILVER through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable
water volume while maintaining uniform distribution. Determine the amount of PROVOST
SILVER required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system. Add the required amount
of PROVOST SILVER 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 PROVOST SILVER solution has cleared the last sprinkler head.
Adjuvants: PROVOST SILVER is recommended to be used with a registered non-ionic
surfactant	at	the	lowest	specified	labeled	rate	for	most	uses.
Spray Drift Directions
Do not make applications when conditions favor drift beyond the target application area. When
drift may be a problem, take measures to reduce drift, including:
1. Do not spray if wind speeds are or become excessive. Do not spray if wind speed is 15 mph
or greater. If non-target crops are located downwind, use caution when spraying if wind is
present. Do not spray if winds are gusty.
2. Use caution when conditions are favorable for drift (high temperatures, drought, and low
relative humidity).
3. Do not apply when temperature inversion exists. If inversion conditions are suspected,
consult with local weather services before making an application.
ROTATIONAL RESTRICTIONS
Treated areas may be replanted with dry beans, peanuts and soybeans as well as any crop
specified	on	this	label	as	soon	as	practical	after	last	application.	For	additional	crops,	do	not
plant back within 120 days of last application.

Application Directions:  PROVOST SILVER may be applied by ground, chemigation, or
aerial application equipment.
Disease Control Program: For	foliar	diseases,	apply	the	specified	rate	in	a	preventive	spray
schedule	using	a	14	day	interval.		For	optimum	control	of	the	specified	soil-borne	diseases,	it
is recommended that four consecutive applications of PROVOST SILVER be made at 14-day
intervals. In a typical 7 spray application program, PROVOST SILVER should be applied in a
block (sprays 3, 4, 5 and 6). If fewer than 7 calendar-based applications are typically made,
the number of consecutive block sprays with PROVOST SILVER can be reduced accordingly.
For control of soil-borne diseases when using a Leaf Spot Advisory Program schedule, apply
PROVOST	 SILVER	 in	 the	 first	 advisory	 spray	 in	 July	 and	 continue	 applications	 at	 14-day
intervals for at least three applications. Soil-borne disease control will be improved with four
applications. PROVOST SILVER must be carried by rainfall or irrigation into the root and pod
zone	for	control	of	root	and	pod	rots.	Use	the	higher	specified	use	rate	when	conditions	are
favorable for severe disease pressure and/or when growing less disease resistant varieties.
For resistance management: No more than 4 foliar applications of fungicides containing
sterol biosynthesis inhibitors (Group 3) are recommended per season for resistance
management. Applications of fungicides with a different mode of action should be made
prior to and following block applications of PROVOST SILVER to discourage development of
resistant strains of fungi. Use in conjunction with cultural practices that are known to reduce
the severity of soil-borne diseases, such as proper crop rotation practices.
Restrictions:	Do	not	apply	more	than	52	fl	oz	per	acre	of	PROVOST	SILVER	per	season.
Do not exceed a maximum of 0.8 lb tebuconazole/acre/season or 0.71 lb prothioconazole/
acre/season.  Do not apply within 14 days of harvest. Do not feed hay or threshings or allow
livestock to graze in treated areas.
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING RESTRICTIONS WHEN SPRAYING IN THE VICINITY OF
AQUATIC AREAS SUCH AS LAKES, RESERVOIRS, RIVERS, PERMANENT STREAMS,
MARSHES OR NATURAL PONDS, AND ESTUARIES.
Apply	only	during	alternate	years	in	fields	adjacent	to	aquatic	areas	listed	above.

Do not apply by ground or air within 100 feet of aquatic areas listed above.
Do	not	cultivate	within	10	feet	of	an	aquatic	area	to	allow	growth	of	a	vegetative	filter	strip.
Spray Drift Management:  For aerial applications, the spray boom should be mounted on the
aircraft so as to minimize drift caused by wing tip vortices. The minimum practical boom length
should be used, and must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or rotor diameter.
Use the largest droplet size consistent with pest control. Formation of very small droplets may
be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away from the air stream
as much as possible and by avoiding excessive spray boom pressure. Apply in a minimum of
5 gallons of spray solution per acre by aircraft spray equipment.
Spray should be released at the lowest possible height consistent with good pest control and
flight	safety.	Applications	more	than	10	feet	above	the	crop	canopy	should	be	avoided.
Make aerial or ground applications when wind velocity favors on-target product deposition
(approximately 3 to 10 mph). Do not apply when wind velocity exceeds 15 mph. Avoid
applications when wind gusts approach 15 mph.
Risk of exposure to sensitive aquatic areas can be reduced by avoiding applications when
wind direction is toward the aquatic area.
Low humidity and high temperatures increase the evaporation rate of spray droplets and
therefore the likelihood of spray drift to aquatic areas. Avoid spraying during conditions of low
humidity and/or high temperature.
Do not make aerial or ground applications during temperature inversions. Inversions are
characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with height above the ground. Mist or
fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas. The applicator may detect the
presence of an inversion by producing smoke and observing a smoke layer near the ground
surface.
