FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL MAY RESULT IN CROP INJURY, POOR DISEASE CONTROL, OR ILLEGAL RESIDUES.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Tilt Bravo SE is a combination of systemic and contact fungicides that provides broad- spectrum control of many important plant diseases.
Integrated Pest (Disease) Management
Tilt Bravo SE is an excellent disease control agent when used according to label directions for control of a broad spectrum of plant diseases. Tilt Bravo SE is recommended for use in programs which are compatible with the principles of Integrated Pest Management (IPM), which include the use of disease resistant crop varieties, cultural practices, pest scouting and disease forecasting systems which reduce unnecessary applications of pesticides.
Resistance Management
GROUP 3 M5 FUNGICIDES
Tilt Bravo SE is effective for strategic use in programs that attempt to minimize disease resistance to fungicides. Tilt is in the Group 3 class fungicides. The mode of action of Tilt is as a demethylation inhibitor of sterol biosynthesis (DMI) which disrupts membrane synthesis by blocking demethylation. Fungal pathogens can develop resistance to products with the same mode of action when used repeatedly. Bravo, with a multi-site mode of action, may be used to delay or prevent the development of resistance to single-site fungicides. Tilt Bravo SE is a combination product. Consult with your Federal or State Cooperative Extension Service representatives for guidance on the proper use of Tilt Bravo SE in programs which seek to minimize the occurrence of disease resistance to other fungicides.
PRODUCT USE RESTRICTIONS
Do not use in greenhouses.
Rotational Crops: To avoid illegal residues, do not plant any other crop intended for food, grazing, or any component of animal feed or bedding within 105 days of Tilt Bravo SE application to the preceding crop, unless the second crop is one of the following: barley, celery, grasses grown for seed, rice, rye, or wheat.
Tilt Bravo SE Page 8 Spray Drift Management
Wind Speed Do not apply at wind speeds greater than 10 mph.
Droplet Size Apply as a medium or coarser spray (ASAE Standard 572).
Temperature Inversions Do not apply at wind speeds below 3 mph. Do not make applications into areas of temperature inversions or stable atmospheric conditions.
Other State and Local Requirements Applicators must follow all state and local pesticide drift requirements regarding application of propiconazole. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
Equipment All application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers or surrogates.
Additional requirements for aerial applications:
-
The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade diameter.
-
Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety.
-
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath must be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for this displacement at the up and downwind edge of the application area by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
This product must not be applied within 150 feet for aerial applications, or 25 feet for ground applications of marine/estuarine water bodies unless there is an untreated buffer area of that width between the area to be treated and the water body.
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
Tilt Bravo SE Page 9 not apply to forestry applications, public health uses or applications using dry formulations.
-
The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or rotor.
-
Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and never be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
The applicator should be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory.
Tilt Bravo SE Page 10 Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory [This section is advisory in nature and does not supersede the mandatory label requirements.]
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 conditions (See Wind, Temperature).
Controlling Droplet Size x Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical 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 provide uniform coverage.
x Nozzle Orientation - Orienting the nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the air stream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential.
x Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended 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 potential.
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 Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 ft 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.
Tilt Bravo SE Page 11
Swath Adjustment When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downward. Therefore, on the upwind and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should 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.
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 habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal (e.g., when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas).
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Apply Tilt Bravo SE at rates and timings as described in this label.
Tilt Bravo SE Page 12 Spray Equipment
Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application. Be certain that nozzles are the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom. Calibrate sprayer before use.
Use a pump with capacity to: (1) maintain at least 35-40 psi at nozzles, and (2) provide sufficient continuous 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.
Tilt Bravo SE is a suspoemulsion concentrate. It is suggested that screens be used to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging. 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.
For more information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer manufacturers and state recommendations. For specific local directions and spray schedules, consult the current state and local agricultural recommendations.
Spraying/Mixing
Tilt Bravo SE may be applied with all types of spray equipment commonly used for making ground and aerial applications. The higher rates in the rate range and/or shorter spray intervals may be required under conditions of heavy infection pressure, highly susceptible varieties, or when environmental conditions conducive to disease exist.
For ground applications, apply Tilt Bravo SE in sufficient water volume for adequate coverage and canopy penetration. For aerial applications, apply Tilt Bravo SE in a minimum of five gallons of water per acre.
Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation. Do not allow the spray mixture to sit overnight. 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.
Alone: Add ½ -Ҁ of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank. With the agitator running, add Tilt Bravo SE to the tank. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Begin application of the spray solution after Tilt Bravo SE has completely dispersed into the water. Maintain continuous agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed.
Tilt Bravo SE + Tank Mixtures: Consult your dealer or Syngenta sales representative for information concerning compatibility with other tank mix partners. NOTE: When using Tilt Bravo SE in mixture, any product in water-soluble packaging should be added
Tilt Bravo SE Page 13 to the tank prior to adding Tilt Bravo SE. Allow water-soluble packaging to completely dissolve and the mixture product to completely disperse before adding Tilt Bravo SE to the tank.
Add ½-Ҁ of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank. Again, if tank mixing with any product packaged in water-soluble packets, add this product first with the agitator running. Allow the material to completely dissolve and disperse in the mix water. In general, additional tank mix partners should be added in the following order: wettable powders, dry flowable formulations, liquid flowable formulations, and emulsifiable concentrations. Always allow each tank mix partner to become fully dispersed before adding the next product. Maintain agitation while adding the rest of the water, while adding the other tank mix partners and throughout the mixing and spraying operation.
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.
Restriction: Do not combine Tilt Bravo SE with DiPel ® ES, DiPel ES-NT, Latron B- 1956®, or Latron AG-98® as phytotoxicity may result.
Directions for Use Through Chemigation Systems – Apply Tilt Bravo SE only to crops for which chemigation is specified on this label.
Spray Preparation: Chemical tank and injector system should be thoroughly cleaned. Flush system with clean water.
Sprinkler Irrigation: Apply this product through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side [wheel] roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move irrigation systems. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system except as specified on this label.
Apply with center pivot or continuous-move equipment distributing 1/2 acre-inch or less during treatment. In general, use the least amount of water required for proper distribution and coverage. If stationary systems (solid set, handlines or wheel lines other than continuous-move) are used, this product should be injected into no more than the last 20-30 minutes of the set. Do not apply when winds are greater than 10-15 mph to avoid drift or wind skips. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Plant injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform treated water. Thorough coverage of foliage is required for good control. Good agitation should be maintained during the entire application period.
Tilt Bravo SE Page 14 If you have questions about calibration you should contact State Extension Service specialist, equipment manufacturers or other experts.
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.
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.
Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. 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.
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.
