r Ridomil Gold EC Page? PRODUCT INFORMATION Ridomil Gold EC is a systemic fungicide for use on selected crops to control certain diseases caused by members of the Oomycete class of fungi. PRODUCT USE RESTRICTIONS Do not use Ridomil Gold EC in greenhouses or other structures such as lath houses, float houses and hydroponic facilities. Do not use Ridomil Gold EC for disease control in bedding plants, transplant trays or nurseries except where specifically allowed in certain crop sections. DO NOT USE RIDOMIL GOLD EC AS A FOLIAR APPLICATION UNLESS SPECIFIED ON THIS LABEL. Do not dip plants or roots, spray bare roots, or use a transplant water treatment with solutions containing Ridomil Gold EC except where specifically allowed in certain crop sections. Under conditions conducive to severe disease pressure, additional fungicide applications beyond the number allowed by this label may be needed. Under these conditions, use another fungicide registered for the crop/disease appearing on this label. Where rate ranges are specified on this label, use the higher rate when heavy disease pressure is expected and the lower rate when disease pressure is expected to be light, unless otherwise noted. Maximum usage when applying both metalaxyl- and mefenoxam-containing products to the same crop within the same season: Do not apply more than the maximum seasonal total for the active ingredient as stated on the label of the product containing the lowest seasonal total on that crop. Soil-applied maximum application rates include all uses in Part 1 and all uses in Part 2 except foliar applications. Replanting If replanting is necessary, additional applications of Ridomil Gold EC may be made, provided that the total amount of active ingredient in Ridomil Gold EC applied does not exceed the maximum allowed for the specific crop.

Ridomil Gold EC PageS PRODUCT USE INSTRUCTIONS Application: Apply Ridomil Gold EC by ground or air in sufficient water or liquid fertilizer to provide uniform coverage of the soil surface. Apply in a minimum of 20 gal. per acre for ground applications and 3 gal. per acre by air. Refer to the Directions for Use for specific crop application directions. Refer to Application Instructions for band and in-furrow calculations. Moving Ridomil Gold into the Root or Seed Zone: To ensure maximum activity on soilborne pathogens, Ridomil Gold EC must be moved into the seed or root zone of the plant. Follow the specific crop directions. Placement in the seed or root zone includes in-furrow sprays, soil injections, crown dips. Incorporation includes preplant incorporated applications, soil drenches, or shank applications. For soil surface sprays, rainfall will move the fungicide into the seed or root zone, but if rain is not expected within 24 hours after application, mechanically incorporate (before planting) or sprinkler irrigate (after planting) with Vz to 1 inch of water. Efficacy: Under certain conditions conducive to extended infection periods, use another registered fungicide for additional applications if maximum amount of Ridomil Gold EC has been used. If resistant isolates to Group 4 fungicides are present, efficacy can be reduced. Under high disease pressure, it is recommended to use the highest rate and shortest interval when needed. Crop Tolerance: Plant tolerance has been found acceptable for all crops on the label, however, not all possible tank-mix combinations have been tested under all conditions. When possible, it is recommended to test the combinations on a small portion of the crop to ensure a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application. Spray Drift Management: To avoid spray drift, do not apply when conditions favor drift beyond the target area. Avoid spray overlap as crop injury may occur. 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. More information on managing spray drift can be found on this website under Stewardship http://www.syngentacropprotection-us.com/enviro/driftmanagement/ IPM: Ridomil Gold EC should be integrated into an overall disease and pest management strategy (IPM) whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Cultural practices known to reduce disease development should be followed. Consult your local agricultural authorities for additional IPM strategies established for your area. L t.

Fungal pathogens can develop resistance to products with the same mode of action when used repeatedly. Because resistance development cannot be predicted, use of this product should conform to resistance management strategies established for the crop and use area. Consult your local or state agricultural authorities for resistance management strategies that are complementary to those in this label. Resistance management strategies may include rotating and/or tank mixing with products having different modes of action or limiting the total number of applications per season. Syngenta encourages responsible resistance management to ensure effective long-term control of the fungal diseases on this label. Ridomil Gold EC should not be alternated or tank mixed with any fungicide to which resistance has already developed. SPRAY EQUIPMENT Nozzles • Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application. • Nozzles should be the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom. • Calibrate sprayer before use. • 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 coarsercScreens,.betweeji the pump and boom, and where required, at the nozzles. tc 1 t ; ! <.*"•,.• i i: • • Check nozzle mariLifactjirer's t

c r Ridomil Gold EC Page 10 Pump • Use a pump with capacity to: (1) Maintain 35-40 psi at nozzles (2) 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. 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 agricultural recommendations. MIXING INSTRUCTIONS • Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation. • 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. Ridomil Gold EC Alone (no tank mix): • Add % - 7z of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank. •. With the agitator running, add Ridomil Gold EC to the tank. • Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. • Begin application of the spray solution after Ridomil Gold EC has completely dispersed into the mix water. • Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed. Ridomil Gold EC + Tank Mixtures: Ridomil Gold EC is usually compatible with all tank-mix partners listed on this label. To determine the physical compatibility of Ridomil Gold EC with other products, use a jar test. 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 liquid flowables, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let stand for at least 20 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. Do not combine Ridomil Gold EC in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers, unless compatibility charts or your own prior use has shown that the combination is physically compatible, effective and non-injurious under your conditions of use.

c r tt-i Ridomil Gold EC Page 11 Mixing in the Spray Tank • Add % - !4 of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank. • With the agitator running, add the tank-mix partner(s) into the tank in the same order as described above. • Allow the material to completely dissolve and disperse into the mix water. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water and Ridomil Gold EC to the spray tank. • Allow Ridomil Gold EC to completely disperse. • Spray the mixture with the agitator running. • Observe all directions for use, crops/sites, use rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations which appear on the tank mix product label. • Do not exceed maximum label dosage rates, and the most restrictive label precautions and limitations must be followed. • Do not tank mix this product with any product which prohibits such mixing. APPLICATION PROCEDURES Ground Application (Broadcast): • Apply in a minimum of 20 gal. of water per acre, unless specified otherwise. Ground Application (Banded): • Application rates in the Directions for Use are generally expressed as an amount per acre which refers to the total crop area to be treated. If using a banded application, use proportionally less product using the formula below: band width in inches row spacing in inches X broadcast rate per acre amount needed per acre of field Ground Applications (In-Furrow): • Apply Ridomil Gold EC as an in-furrow spray in 3-7 gal. per acre of water at planting. • Mount the spray nozzle so the spray is directed into the furrow just before the seed are covered. • The following table provides common row spacing and the amount of Ridomil Gold EC to apply per acre. t, t.
