Aprovia Fungicide Page 6
2.6.1 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 groundwater. A 15-foot level vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features including ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of benzovindiflupyr 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 avoiding 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.
2.7 Physical or Chemical Hazards DO NOT mix or allow coming in contact with oxidizing agent. Hazardous chemical reaction may occur.

3.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION Aprovia Fungicide is a broad-spectrum product and is for use for the control of many important plant diseases. Aprovia Fungicide is primarily 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.
Aprovia Fungicide is a member of Syngenta’s Plant Health product line and may also improve the yield and/or quality of the crop. These possible benefits are due to positive effects on plant physiology. The effects may vary according to factors including the crop, crop hybrid, or environment.
Efficacy: Under certain conditions conducive to extended infection periods, use another registered fungicide for additional applications if maximum amount of Aprovia Fungicide has been used. If resistant isolates to Group 7 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.
3.1 Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Integrate Aprovia Fungicide into an overall disease and pest management strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Follow cultural practices known to reduce disease development. Consult your local agricultural authorities for additional IPM strategies established for your area. Aprovia Fungicide may be used in State Agricultural Extension advisory (disease forecasting) programs which advise application timing based on environmental factors favorable for disease development.
3.2 Resistance Management
For resistance management, Aprovia Fungicide contains a Group 7 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Aprovia Fungicide and other Group 7 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Follow appropriate resistance-management strategies.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
Aprovia Fungicide Page 8
Rotate the use of Aprovia Fungicide or other Group 7 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. Use tank mixtures with fungici des from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as labeled by the manufacturer. Adopt an integrated diseas e management program for fungicide use 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. Where possible, make use of predictive di sease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. Monitor treated fungal populati ons for resistance development. Contact your local extension specialist or ce rtified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM directions for specific crops and pathogens. For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta Crop Protection at 1-866-796-4368. You can also contact your university extension specialist to report resistance.
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 effect ive 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) pr actices into your program which can help reduce disease development and spread. To help manage fungicide resistance, DO NOT use Aprovia Fungicide for commercial transplant production.
4.0 APPLICATION DIRECTIONS 4.1 Methods of Application Aprovia 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 coverage is essential for good disease control.
Applications with Aprovia Fungicide are permitted by ground, by air, and via chemigation as specified in Section 7.0, unless otherwise restricted in Section 6.1. Refer to Section 4.5 for details of application by chemigation.

4.2 Application Equipment Arrange spray equipment configuration to pr ovide accurate application, and minimize potential for spray drift. To ensure accuracy, calibrate sprayer before each use. For information on spray equipment and ca libration, consult spray equipment
Aprovia Fungicide Page 10
manufacturers and/or state directions. All ground/aerial/chemigati on application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers.
4.2.1 Nozzles Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application. Nozzles must be the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom. Calibrate sprayer before use. It is suggested that screens be used to pr otect the pump and to prevent nozzles from clogging. Screens placed on suction side of pump must 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 specifications.
4.2.2 Pumps Use a pump with capacity to maintain 35-40 ps i at nozzles and 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.
4.3 Application Volume and Spray Coverage See methods of application (Section 4.1) and crop use directions (Section 7.0) for application volume information. 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. For aerial applications, apply in a minimum of 2 gallons of water per acre unless specified otherwise. For ground applications, apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre unless specified otherwise.
4.4 Mixing Directions
- Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product.
- Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation.
- Keep product container tight ly closed when not in use.
- Agitate the spray solution before and during application.
- DO NOT let the spray mixture stand overnight in the spray tank.
Aprovia Fungicide Page 11
- Flush the spray equipment thoroughly with clean water after each day’s use and dispose of pesticide rinsate by application to an already treated area.
4.4.1 Aprovia Fungicide Alone
- Add ½- ⅔ of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.
- With the agitator running, add Aprovia Fungicide to the tank.
- Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.
- Begin application of the spray solution afte r Aprovia Fungicide has completely dispersed into the mix water.
- Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed.
4.4.2 Tank-Mix Precautions It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ens ure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions, limitation 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. Tank mixes of Aprovia Fungicide with other pesticides, fertilizers, or any other additives not specifically labelled for use with Aprovia Fungicide may result in tank mix incompatibility or unsatisfactory performance. In such cases, always check tank mix compatibility by conducting a jar test according to guidance in Section 4.4.3 before actual tank mixing.
4.4.3 Tank-Mix Compatibility Conduct a jar test using a 1 pt to 1 qt cont ainer with lid by adding water or other intended carrier including liquid fertilizer to the jar. Next, add the appropriate amount of pesticide(s) or tank mix partner(s) in their relative proportions based on specified label rates. Add tank mix components separately in the order described in the tank-mixing section, Section 4.4.4. After each addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix. After all ingredients have been added, put the lid on the jar, tighten and invert the jar 10 times to mix. After mixing, let the mixture stand 15 – 30 minutes and then examine for signs of incompatibility including obvious separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels or heavy oily film on the jar. If the mixture remains mixed or can be remixed readily, it is physically compatible and can be used. If the mixture is incompatible , repeat the test using a compatibility agent at the directed rate. Or, if applicable, slurry dry formulations in water before adding to the jar. If incompatibility is still observed after following these procedures, DO NOT use the mixture. After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance with the storage and disposal section, (Section 8.0) of this label.
Aprovia Fungicide Page 12
4.4.4 Aprovia Fungicide In Tank Mixtures
- Add ½- ⅔ of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank.
- Start the agitator running befor e adding any tank-mix partners.
- Add all products in water-soluble packaging to the tank before any other tank-mix partner. Allow the water-soluble packaging to completely dissolve and the product(s) to completely disperse before adding any other tank-mix partner to the tank.
- In general, add tank-mix partners in this order: a. products packaged in water-soluble packaging b. wettable powders and water dispersible granules c. wettable granules (dry flowables) d. liquid flowables e. liquids f. emulsifiable concentrates (including Aprovia Fungicide) g. surfactants / adjuvants.
- Allow the material to completely di ssolve and disperse into the mix water.
- Spray the mixture with the agitator running.
4.4.5 Spray Additives For best performance, the addition of a spre ading/penetrating type adjuvant, for example: organo-silicon blends with either non-ionic surfactants (NIS) or vegetable based crop oils (COC); or vegetable based COC (not mineral); or NIS with at least 90% concentration is advised. When an adjuvant is to be used with this pr oduct, the use of an adjuvant that meets the standards of the Council of Producers & Distributors of Agrotechnology (CPDA) adjuvant certification is advised.
4.5 Application through Irrigation Systems (Chemigation)
4.5.1 Chemigation Restrictions Use only on crops where chemigation is specified on this label. Apply this product only through center pi vot, solid set, hand move, or moving wheel irrigation systems. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. 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. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pe sticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of the product in the water. Apply in 0.1-0.25 inches/acre. Excessive water may reduce efficacy. If you have questions about calibration, contac t State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. 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 if the need arises.
Aprovia Fungicide Page 13
4.5.2 Operating Instructions For Chemigation
-
The system must contain a functional ch eck-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 c ontain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check-valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
-
The pesticide injection pipeline must al so 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 interlo cking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
-
The irrigation line or water pump must in clude 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, for ex ample 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.
-
DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
4.5.3 Specific Instructions For Public Water Systems
-
Public water system means a system for t he 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 connect ed 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, discharge the water from the public water system 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 c ontain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
-
The pesticide injection pipeline must c ontain a functional, normally closed, solenoid- operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the
Aprovia Fungicide Page 14
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 interlo cking 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, for ex ample 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.
-
DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
4.5.4 Application Directions For Center Pivot Irrigation Equipment
Restrictions: (1) Use only with drive systems which provide uniform water distribution. (2) DO NOT use end guns when chemigating Aprovia 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 ⅛-½ inch of water over the area to be treated when the system and injection equipment are operated at normal pressures as specified by the equipment manufacturer. When applying Aprovia 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 Aprovia Fungicide r equired to treat the area covered by the irrigation system. Add the required amount of Aprovia Fungici de and sufficient water to meet the injection time requirements to the solution tank. Make sure the system is fully charged with wa ter before starting injection of the Aprovia 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.

4.5.5 Application Directions For Solid Set, Hand Move, and Moving Wheel Irrigation Equipment
Determine the acreage covered by the sprinklers. Fill injector solution tank with water and adjust fl ow rate to use the contents over a 20 to 30-minute interval. When applying Aprovia Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform distribution. Determine the amount of Aprovia Fungicide r equired to treat the area covered by the irrigation system. Add the required amount of Aprovia Fungici de 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 Aprovia Fungicide solution has cleared the last sprinkler head.

6.0 RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
6.1 Use Restrictions DO NOT apply to tomatoes grown in greenhouses. DO NOT apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
6.1.1 Aerial Application Restrictions DO NOT apply by air in New York State.
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING RESTRICTIONS WHEN SPRAYING IN THE VICINITY OF AQUATIC AREAS INCLUDING LAKES, RESERVOIRS, RIVERS, PERMANENT STREAMS, MARSHES OR NATURAL PONDS, ESTUARIES AND COMMERCIAL FISH PONDS.
Aprovia Fungicide Page 17
DO NOT apply by air within 150 ft of lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, estuaries and commercial fish ponds. For aerial applications, mount t he 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. 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. DO NOT apply during a temperature inversion. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas.
6.1.2 Ground Application Restrictions OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING RESTRICTIONS WHEN SPRAYING IN THE VICINITY OF AQUATIC AREAS INCLUDING LAKES, RESERVOIRS, RIVERS, PERMANENT STREAMS, MARSHES OR NATURAL PONDS, ESTUARIES, AND COMMERCIAL FISH PONDS.
DO NOT apply within 15 ft of bodies of water including lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, natural ponds, marshes or estuaries. Shut off the sprayer when row ends. 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. For perennial crops: Spray last three rows windward of aquatic areas using nozzles on one side only, with spray directed away from aquatic areas. Adjust or turn off top nozzles to prevent spray going over the tops of trees. Shut off nozzles on the side away from the grove/orchard when spraying the outside row. Shut off nozzles when turning at ends of row or passing tree gaps in the rows.
6.2 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 determine the potential for spray drift. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE GROWER.
6.2.1 Aerial Application Spray Drift Precautions Use only on crops where aerial applications are allowed. Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when excessive spray drift may occur.
Aprovia Fungicide Page 18
Use the largest droplet size consistent wit h 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. Risk of exposure to 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 increased spray drift to aquatic area. Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/or high temperatures.
