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. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard (WPS). DO NOT enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 48 hours. Exception: If the seed is treated with the product and the treated seed is planted, the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything that has been treated. 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 barrier laminate, butyl rubber ≥14 mils, nitrile rubber ≥14 mils, neoprene rubber ≥14 mils, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) ≥14 mils, or Viton ≥14 mils • Shoes plus socks

3.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION A23545 ST is a broad-spectrum seed treatment fungicide that consists of four fungicide active ingredients: fludioxonil, mefenoxam, picarbutrazox, and sedaxane. Each active ingredient has a different mode of action against fungal pathogens. This fungicide seed treatment is designed for protection against many important fungal plant diseases. A23545 ST may be applied in tank mixes or sequentially with other registered seed treatment pesticide products such as Cruiser® 5FS (EPA Reg. No. 100-941, containing thiamethoxam) or Fortenza® (EPA Reg. Nos. 100-1418 and 100-1420, containing cyantraniliprole) insecticides or Saltro® (EPA Reg. No. 100-1648, containing pydiflumetofen) fungicide/nematicide.

Fludioxonil protects against seed-borne and soil-borne Fusarium and Rhizoctonia spp. that cause seed decay, damping-off, and seedling blight. This active ingredient also provides protection from seed-borne Diaporthe-Phomopsis disease complex sometimes referred to as pod and stem blight (Phomopsis and Diaporthe spp.). Fludioxonil suppresses seed-borne Sclerotinia and Phomopsis spp.

Mefenoxam is active against Pythium and Phytophthora spp.

Picarbutrazox provides early-season protection against Pythium and Phytophthora spp. that cause seed rot and damping-off.

A23545 ST 7

Sedaxane is active against seed decay, seedling blight, and damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia spp.

To comply with 40 CFR 153.155, all treated seed must be colored with an EPA-approved dye or colorant of a suitable color to prevent accidental use as food for man or feed for animals.

3.1 Resistance Management

For resistance management, please note that A23545 ST contains fludioxonil, a Group 12 fungicide; mefenoxam, a Group 4 fungicide; picarbutrazox, a Group U17 fungicide; and sedaxane, a Group 7 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to A23545 ST and other Group 4, Group 7, Group 12, or Group U17 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 should be followed.

Fludioxonil belongs to the phenylpyrrole class of chemistry, which interferes with osmotic signal transduction. Mefenoxam belongs to the phenylamide class of chemistry, which interferes with fungal RNA synthesis. Picarbutrazox belongs to the tetra-zolyloximes class of fungicides and is not known to be cross-resistant with fungicides that have different modes of action. Sedaxane is a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) and belongs to the carboxamide class of chemistry, which disrupts cellular respiration and energy generation.

To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: • Rotate the use of A23545 ST or other Group 4, Group 7, Group 12, or Group U17 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. • Use tank mixtures with fungicide 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 disease management program for fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use and crop rotation, and 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 disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. • Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or Integrated Pest Management (IPM) recommendations for specific crop and pathogens.

4.0 APPLICATION DIRECTIONS Important: Always recirculate A23545 ST thoroughly before using.

Follow the manufacturers application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being used. The typical density of A23545 ST is 8.85 pounds per gallon. Consult the manufacturer of the application equipment you plan to use for suitability for this application and for instructions on operation and calibration of the equipment. Follow the manufacturers application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being used. Apply A23545 ST as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry seed treatment equipment that provides uniform seed coverage. Seed treaters with atomizers or spinning discs are highly recommended for better product coverage on the seed. Uneven or incomplete seed coverage may not give the desired level of disease control. Thoroughly mix the specified amount of A23545 ST into the required amount of water or liquid inoculant for the slurry treater and dilution rate to be used. Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted. A23545 ST is compatible with several liquid inoculant products. Consult the maker of the inoculant product and a Syngenta Crop Protection representative for directions before applying A23545 ST with inoculants. Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out of the solution. Clean out any unused product from the treater after treating or maintain constant agitation if the leftover slurry will be maintained overnight. [Use an EPA-approved dye or colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the seed as required in 40 CFR 153.155(c).] Allow seed to dry before bagging. Follow planter manufacturers specifications for use of talc or other hopper box additives at planting. Seed must be completely dry before adding to planter. 4.1 Tank Mixtures A23545 ST mixes easily with water and other water-based seed treatments manufactured by Syngenta. When mixing with products from other manufacturers, test the compatibility prior to use by conducting a jar test: mix all intended seed treatments with the appropriate amount of water in a clear glass container. Mix well and allow mixture to sit for one hour. Remix and observe for incompatibility. It is the pesticide users 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.
