Do not apply by chemigation to any other crop or this crop using any other type of irrigation system. ] MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Thoroughly clean all sprayer components prior to mixing. Add approximately 1/2 of the required amount of water to the spray tank and begin agitation. Add the required amount of ORTHENE 97 PELLETS insecticide and mix thoroughly. Then add other tank mix partners or foliar feed additives and the remaining water. Maintain agitation during filling and spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture.
{NOTE TO REVIEWER: This paragraph of the Mixing Instructions Section will not appear on commercial labels with only non-food crop turf, tree and ornamental-type uses.} [For application equipment which has minimal agitation, such as tobacco transplant water equipment, proper attention to mixing the product should be given. With tobacco transplant water applications, the product should be premixed in water to form a slurry prior to putting the product into the transplant water applicator. If premixing is not done, then adequate time should be allowed for the product to dissolve in the transplant water prior to beginning application.]
{NOTE TO REVIEWER: This paragraph of the Mixing Instructions Section will appear only on commercial labels with non-food crop turf, tree and ornamental-type uses.} [For application equipment which has minimal agitation, proper attention to mixing the product should be given.]
{NOTE TO REVEIWER: The following Spray Drift Management section will be used on commercial labels that contain crop uses.} [ SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT A variety of factors including weather conditions, (e.g., wind directions, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity) and method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) can influence pesticide drift. The applicator and grower must evaluate all factors and make appropriate adjustments when applying this product. • All aerial, ground and air-assisted/airblast application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using water as the carrier. {This sentence to be used for products NOT containing “NON -CROP AREAS – Wasteland”: [Do not apply this product as an ultralow (ULV) spray, or in any carrier other than water.] {This sentence to be used for products containing “NON-CROP AREAS – Wasteland:} [Do not apply this product as an ultralow (ULV) spray, or in any carrier other than water, except as specified in the instructions for “NON-CROP AREAS – Wasteland”.] • Use the largest droplet size consistent with good pest control. Small droplets are more prone to spray drift and can be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away from the air stream as much as possible and by avoiding excessive spray boom pressure. • Do not apply at wind speeds greater than 10 mph at the application site. • Make applications when wind velocity favors on-target product deposition (approximately 3 to 10 mph). • Apply as close to target plants as practical to obtain a good spray pattern for adequate coverage. • For aerial applications, do not apply at heights greater than 10 feet (consistent with flight safety). • For airblast applications, direct spray above foliage and turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and outer rows. Apply only when wind speed is 3 to 10 mph at the application site as measured by an anemometer outside of the treated area on the upwind side. • For aerial applications, the spray boom should be mounted on the aircraft so as to minimize drift caused by wing tip vortices. The minimum practical boom length should be used and must not exceed 75% of wing span or rotor diameter. The boom width must not exceed 75% of the wing span or 90% of the rotary blade. Use upwind swath displacement and apply only when wind speed is 3 to 10 mph as measured by an anemometer. Use medium or coarser spray according to the ASAE 572 definition for standard nozzles or VMD for spinning atomizer nozzles. If application includes a no-spray zone, do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the ground. • For ground boom applications, apply with nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy and when the wind speed is 10 mph or less at the application site as measured by an anemometer. Use medium or coarser spray according to the ASAE 572 definition for standard nozzles or VMD for spinning atomizer nozzles.
Page 6 of 41 • Do not allow spray to drift from the application site and contact people, structures people occupy at any time and the associated property, parks and recreation areas, nontarget crops, aquatic and wetland areas, woodlands, pastures, rangelands or animals. • The applicator also must use all other measures necessary to control drift. ]
{NOTE TO REVIEWER: The following Spray Drift Management section will be used on commercial labels that contain only non-food crop turf, tree and ornamental-type uses.} [SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT A variety of factors including weather conditions, (e.g., wind directions, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity) and method of application (e.g., ground, airblast) can influence pesticide drift.

Resistance Management For resistance management, ORTHENE 97 PELLETS contains acephate, a Group 1 insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to ORTHENE 97 PELLETS and other Group 1 insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same locations. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.
To delay insecticide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
• Rotate the use of ORTHENE 97 PELLETS or other Group 1 insecticides within the year with different groups that control the same pests. • Use tank mixtures with insecticides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same mixture repeatedly for the same pest population. Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of the mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations from the Insect resistance Action Committee (IRAC):
o Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target species. o Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not recommended for insect resistance management. o When using mixtures, consider any known cross -resistance issues between the individual components for the targeted pests. o Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits. o The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greater if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mixtures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active.
Page 7 of 41 • Adopt an integrated insect management program for insecticide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. • Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor. • Contact your local extension specialist or pest control advisor for any additional pesticide resistance - management and/or IPM recommendations for specific site and pest problems in your area.
For further information or to report suspected resistance contact AMVAC at (1 -888-462-6822). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT Cotton pest control programs, especially those for control of Silverleaf Whitefly populations, should employ a properly designed resistance management strategy. Such resistance management strategies include mixture or rotation of alternative classes of chemistry including organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids or insect growth regulators. Consult your state or area agricultural extension service for local resistance management strategies and advice on alternative insecticides.

Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop may result from non-uniform distribution of treated water.
75 If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts.
Chemigation: Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsib le person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the ir rigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow.
Page 13 of 41 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 intak e side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irri gation 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.
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
Solid Set System : Apply specified dosage for the entire length of the irrigation period, or for a 30 to 60 minute period at the end of a regular irrigation set, or as a 30 to 60 minute injection as a separate application not associated with a regular irrigation. Allow time for all lines to flush the pesticide through all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. To ensure the lines are flushed and fre e of remaining pesticide, a dye indicator may be injected into the lines to mark the end of the application period. See NOTE.
Center Pivot Systems: Inject the specified dosage per acre continuously for one complete revolution of the system. See NOTE.
NOTE: Constant agitation must be maintained in the chemical supply tank during the entire period of insecticide application. Inje ct the product with a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right turn to ensure adequate mixing.
Application of more than label recommended quantities of irrigation water per acre may result in decreased product performance by removing the chemical from the zone of effectiveness.

Product can be tank mixed with registered at cracking and early post-emergence peanut herbicides, provided those products do not prohibit tank mixes, provided the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions are observed, and provided no label dosage rates are exceeded.
To determine physical compatibility, pour the recommended proportions of each chemical with the same proportion of water as will be present in the chemical supply tank into a suitable container, mix thoroughly and allow to stand for 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed, or can be remixed readily, the mixture is considered physically compatible. When mixing wettable powder or dry flowable formulations, add and disperse these first, then add liquid pesticides. Conduct another compatibility test at concentrations, which will be present in the irrigation lines. If there is any separation, which cannot be remixed readily, AMVAC recommends that the combination not be used.
Combinations should be kept agitated and should be applied immediately. Do not allow combinations to sit for prolonged periods in the chemical supply tank or irrigation lines. 14 (of digging)

Federal law requires that bags containing treated seeds shall be labeled with the following statements: • This seed has been treated with acephate insecticide. • Do not use for food, feed or oil purposes. • User is responsible for ensuring that the seed container label is in compliance with all of the requirements of the Federal Seed Act.
In addition, the EPA requires all bags containing treated seed must be labeled or tagged with the following information: • This seed has been treated with ORTHENE 97 PELLETS, which contains x mg* active ingredient (ai) per seed. *to be filled in
• Do not apply more than 4.0 lbs. a.i./A per year. This includes all uses of acephate such as commercial seed treatments, in-furrow spray, and foliar applications. • Excess treated seed may be used for ethanol production only if (1) by-products are not used for livestock feed and (2) no measurable residues of pesticide remain in ethanol by-products that are used in agronomic practice. • Store away from feeds and other foodstuffs. • Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and chemical-resistant gloves when handling treated seed. • Dispose of seed packaging in accordance with local requirements. • Exposed treated seed may be hazardous to birds and wildlife. Dispose of all excess treated seed and seed packaging by burial away from bodies of water. Cover or soil-incorporate spilled treated seeds. • Treated seeds must be planted into the soil at the depth of 1 inch or greater.
Note to User: One pound of ORTHENE 97 PELLETS contains 441,799 mg AI (acephate). Example for calculating mg of active ingredient (ai) per seed: 6.4 oz. of ORTHENE 97 PELLETS contains 176,719 mg of AI (acephate). To calculate the number of milligrams per seed in the bag, determine the number of seeds per bag and the weight of the seeds: In this example a 50 lb treated bag contains 230,000 seeds, 100 lbs is the equivalent of 460,000 seeds. For each 100 lbs. there is 176,719 mg of acephate from ORTHENE 97 PELLETS (6.4 oz ORTHENE 97 PELLETS/100 lbs of seed). The mg of acephate per seed in this example is 176,719 mg ÷ 460,000 seeds = 0.384 mg/seed.
