Uniform Water Distribution and System Calibration The chemigation system must provide uniform distribution of treated water . Crop injury or lack of effectiveness can result from non-uniform distribution of treated water . The chemigation system must be calibrated to uniformly apply the rates specified in crop-specific label sections . If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts . Chemigation Monitoring 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 . Required System Safety Devices The system must contain a functional check valve, a vacuum relief valve, and a low-pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow . 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 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located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down . The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops . 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 . 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 . Using Water From Public Water Systems 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 . 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 . Chemigation systems
5 connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone (RPZ), back-flow preventer or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide 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 . 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 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 withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down . 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 . 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 . Injection for Chemigation Inject the specified dosage of SERENADE ASO into the irrigation main water stream: (1) through a constant flow, metering device; (2) into the center of the main line flow via a pivot tube or equivalent; (3) at a point ahead of at least one, right-angle turn in the main stream flow such that thorough mixing with the irrigation water is ensured . Center Pivot, Lateral Move, End Tow, and Traveler Irrigation Equipment (Use only with electric or oil hydraulic drive systems that provide a uniform water distribution) • Determine size of area to be treated . • Determine the time required to apply no more than 1/4 inch of water (6,750 gallons water per acre) over the area to be treated when the system and injection equipment are operated at normal pressures specified by the equipment manufacturer . Run system at 80 to 95% of manufacturer’s rated capacity . • Using only water, determine the injection pump output when operated at normal line pressure . • Determine the amount of Serenade ASO fungicide required to treat area . • Add required amount of Serenade ASO fungicide and sufficient water to meet the injection time requirements of the solution tank . • Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period . • Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed . Continue to operate the system until Serenade ASO fungicide solution has cleared the sprinkler head . Solid Set, Side (Wheel) Roll, and Hand Move Irrigation Equipment • Determine acreage covered by sprinkler . • Fill injector solution tank with water and adjust flow rate to use contents over a 10- to 30-minute interval . • Determine the amount of Serenade ASO fungicide required to treat area . • Add the required amount of Serenade ASO fungicide into the same quantity of water used to calibrate the injection equipment . • Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period . • Operate system at normal pressures specified by the manufacturer of the injection equipment and used for the time interval established during calibration . • Inject Serenade ASO fungicide at the end of the irrigation cycle or as a separate application to maximize foliar fungicide retention . • Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed . Continue to operate the system until Serenade ASO fungicide solution has cleared the last sprinkler head . Flushing and Cleaning the Chemical Injection System At the end of the application period, allow time for all lines to flush the pesticide through all nozzles or emitters before turning off irrigation water . To ensure the lines are flushed and free of pesticides, a dye indicator may be injected into the lines to mark the end of the application period . In order to apply pesticides accurately, the chemical injection system must be kept clean, free of chemical or fertilizer residues and sediments . Refer to your owner’s manual or ask your equipment supplier for the cleaning procedure for your injection system . SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT The interaction of many equipment and weather related factors determine the potential for spray drift . The applicator is responsible for considering all of these factors when making application decisions . Consult the local Cooperative Extension for additional information . Avoiding spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator .
6 Droplet Size Use the largest droplet size which provides sufficient control and coverage . Higher flow nozzles and lower pressures will produce larger droplets and minimize drift . Low drift and air induction nozzles will provide lower drift potential . Use larger droplet size when applying in hot, dry conditions (droplet evaporation is higher under these conditions, thus reducing the effective droplet size and increasing drift potential) . Wind Speed Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph (due to inversion potential) or more than 10 mph . Applications during gusty or calm wind conditions should be avoided . However, many factors, including droplet size, canopy and equipment specifications determine drift potential at any given wind speed . For applications made in-furrow or below soil-level, wind speed restrictions are not applicable . Temperature Inversions Drift potential is high during temperature inversions and applications should be avoided under these conditions . Temperature inversions 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 . If fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke or dust from a ground source -- smoke or dust that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion . Sensitive Areas When applying adjacent to residential areas, bodies of water, habitats known to have threatened or endangered species, or non-target crops, drift can be minimized to these areas by making application when the wind is direction is away from these areas . Where states or local authorities have more stringent regulations, they should be observed . Airblast (Air Assist) Applications for Tree Crops and Vineyards Airblast sprayers carry droplets into the canopy of trees/vines via a radially, or laterally directed air stream . Follow the following specific drift management practices: • Adjust deflectors and aiming devices so that spray is only directed into the canopy; • Block off upward pointed nozzles when there is no overhanging canopy; • Use only enough air volume to penetrate the canopy and provide good coverage; • Do not allow the spray to go beyond the edge of the cultivated area (i .e ., turn off sprayer when turning at end rows); • Only spray inward, toward the orchard or vineyard, for applications to the outside rows . Aerial Applications • Mount the spray boom on the aircraft so as to minimize drift caused by wing tip vortices . • The minimum practical boom length should be used, and should not exceed 75% of the wing span or rotor diameter . • Applications should 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 . COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS Compatibility Serenade ASO is physically and biologically compatible with many commonly used pesticides, fertilizers, adjuvants, and surfactants but has not been fully evaluated with all of these . To ensure compatibility of tank-mix combinations, evaluate them prior to use as follows: Using a suitable container, add proportional amounts of product to water . Add wettable powders first, followed by water dispersible granules, then by liquid flowables, and lastly, emulsifiable concentrates . Mix thoroughly and let stand for at least five minutes . If the combination stays mixed or can be remixed, it is physically compatible . Test the combination on a small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response does not occur as a result of application . Do not combine Serenade ASO with pesticides, surfactants, or fertilizers with which there has been no previous experience or use demonstrating that they are physically compatible, effective, and non-injurious under your use conditions . Order of Mixing Serenade ASO may be tank-mixed with other registered pesticides to enhance plant disease control or suppression . This product cannot be mixed with any product with a prohibition against such mixing . When tank-mixing Serenade ASO with other registered pesticides, always read and follow all use directions, restrictions, and precautions of both Serenade ASO and the tank-mix partner(s) . Use of the resulting tank mix must be in accordance with the more restrictive label limitations and precautions . Do not exceed label dosage rates .
7 1 . Partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation . 2 . Add the specified amount of Serenade ASO 3 . Finish filling the tank to the volume necessary to obtain the proper spray concentration . It is critical that the spray solution be agitated during mixing and application to assure a uniform suspension . Do not allow spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods . Maintain a spray solution pH between 4 .5 and 8 .5 . SPECIFIC CROP DIRECTIONS CROP USE DIRECTIONS • Serenade ASO has a 0-Day Pre-Harvest Interval for all crops contained on this label . • For improved performance under moderate to severe disease pressure, use the stated higher rates and reduced spray intervals and reduce spray intervals as stated or use Serenade ASO in a tank-mix or rotational program with other registered fungicides . Greenhouse Application Instructions Serenade ASO may be applied as a foliar spray or soil treatment in Greenhouses . See foliar spray and soil treatment application instructions . Crop safety has not been confirmed on all cultivars . Plant compatibility testing is recommended when first using under your greenhouse conditions . Foliar Spray Application Instructions Begin applications when environmental conditions are conducive to disease development and repeat as needed . Soil Treatment Application Instructions Serenade ASO is a broad spectrum fungicide and bactericide for the prevention, suppression and control of soil borne diseases on a wide range of horticultural and broadacre crops . For all crops, Serenade ASO may be applied as a soil surface drench, shanked-in, side-dress, injected and in-furrow at any time . Preventative Applications for Plant Health and Optimum Disease Control Serenade ASO provides benefits which can result in healthier plants . Serenade ASO colonizes plants, preventing the establishment of disease-causing fungi and bacteria . As the plant’s root system develops, the bacteria in Serenade ASO, formulated and provided at optimized levels, grow with the roots, providing protection throughout the growing season and resulting in the establishment of a vigorous root system . Improved plant health may help the host plant tolerate environmental stresses such as drought, heat, and cold temperatures . Serenade ASO improves plant utilization of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, other micronutrients and iron and can increase the host plant’s tolerance to infections . Overall increased plant health may improve crop vigor, yields and quality, especially under stressful conditions .
