Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. Wear long sleeved shirt and long pants, socks, shoes, waterproof gloves, and protective eyewear. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Applicators and other handlers must wear: • Long sleeved shirt and long pants • Protective eyewear • Shoes plus socks • Waterproof gloves Follow the manufacturers instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Engineering Controls Statement When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or air- craft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS. Environmental Hazards This product may contaminate water through drift of spray in wind. This product has a potential for runoff for several months or more after application. Poorly draining soils and soils with shallow water tables are more prone to produce runoff that contains this product. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential for contami- nation of water from rainfall runoff. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecast to occur within 48 hours. Sound erosion control practices will reduce this products contribution to surface water contamination. This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. DO NOT apply directly to water, areas where surface water is present, or intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS Users should: • Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. • Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. • Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing. FIRST AID If swallowed • Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. • DO NOT give any liquid to the person. • DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor. • DO NOT give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If on skin or clothing • Take off contaminated clothing. • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes. • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.

Product Information This package contains Headline, an emulsifiable concen- trate (EC). The active ingredient in Headline, pyraclostrobin, is a member of the strobilurin class of chemistry and is derived from a natural antifungal substance. Preventive applications optimize disease con- trol, resulting in improved plant health. The increase in plant health comes from the combined effect of disease control (including fungal diseases listed in Crop-specific directions), improved growth efficiency and improved stress tolerance. Overall increased plant health may result in an improvement in crop growth and crop quality as well as increased crop yields. Information regarding the contents and levels of metals in this product is available on the Internet at http://www.aapfco.org/metals.htm. To maximize disease control, apply Headline in a regularly scheduled protective spray program and use in a rotation program with other fungicides. Because of its high specific activity, Headline has good residual activity against target fungi. Headline is not for use in greenhouse or transplant production. Mode of Action Pyraclostrobin, the active ingredient of Headline, belongs to the group of respiration inhibitors classified by the U.S. EPA and Canada PMRA as Quinone Outside Inhibitors (QoI) or target site of action Group 11 fungicides. Resistance Management Headline is effective against pathogens resistant to fungi- cides with modes of action different from those of QoI fungicides (target site Group 11), such as dicarboximides, sterol inhibitors, benzimidazoles, or phenylamides. Fungal isolates resistant to Group 11 fungicides, such as pyraclostrobin, azoxystrobin, fluoxastrobin, trifloxystrobin, and kresoxim-methyl, may eventually dominate the fungal population if Group 11 fungicides are used predominantly and repeatedly in the same field in successive years as the primary method of control for the targeted pathogen species. This may result in reduction of disease control by Headline or other Group 11 fungicides. DO NOT exceed the maximum annual use rate or the total number of Headline applications per year and the maxi- mum number of Headline applications stated in Restrictions and Limitations - All Crops and Table 2. Headline ® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements. Follow the label instructions for use of Headline or other target site of action Group 11 fungicides that have a similar site of action on the same pathogens. When using a Group 11 fungicide as a solo product, the number of applications should be no more than 1/3 of the total number of fungicide applications per year. STORAGE AND DISPOSAL (continued) Container Handling (continued) Refillable Container. Refill this container with Headline® fungicide only. DO NOT reuse this container for any other purpose. Triple rinsing the container before final dis- posal is the responsibility of the person disposing of the container. Cleaning before refilling is the responsibility of the refiller. Triple rinse as follows: To clean the container before final disposal, empty the remaining contents from this container into application equipment or mix tank. Fill the container about 10% full with water. Agitate vigorously or recirculate water with the pump for 2 minutes. Pour or pump rinsate into application equipment or rinsate collec- tion system. Repeat this rinsing procedure two more times. When this container is empty, replace the cap and seal all openings that have been opened during use; return the container to the point of purchase or to a designated location. This container must only be refilled with Headline. Prior to refilling, inspect carefully for damage such as cracks, punctures, abrasions, worn-out threads and closure devices. Check for leaks after refilling and before transport. DO NOT transport if this container is damaged or leaking. If the container is damaged, or leak- ing, or obsolete and not returned to the point of purchase or to a designated location, triple rinse emptied container and offer for recycling, if available, or dispose of container in compliance with state and local regulations. 4

In programs in which tank mixes or pre-mixes of a Group 11 fungicide with a fungicide of another group are utilized, the number of Group 11 fungicide (QoI)-containing applications should be no more than 1/2 of the total num- ber of fungicide applications per year. In programs in which applications of Group 11 fungicides are made with both solo products and mixtures, the num- ber of Group 11 fungicide (Qol)-containing applications should be no more than 1/2 of the total number of fungi- cide applications per year. In fungicide alternation programs of Group 11 (QoI)- containing fungicides with non-Group 11 fungicides of dif- ferent modes of action, the maximum number of sequential applications stated in Restrictions and Limitations - All Crops and Table 2. Headline ® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements must be alternated with at least an equal number of applications of a non-Group 11-containing fun- gicide prior to using the Group 11 (QoI)-containing fungicide again. For example, in cases where two sequen- tial applications of a Group 11 (QoI)-containing fungicide are made, this block of applications should be followed by 2 or more applications of a non-Group 11-containing fun- gicide prior to using the Group 11 (QoI)-containing fungicide again. Resistance Management Advisory The following instructions may be considered to delay the development of fungicide resistance:

  1. Tank mixtures - Use tank mixtures with effective fungi- cides from different target-site-of-action groups that are registered/permitted for the same use and that are effec- tive against the pathogens of concern. Use at least the minimum labeled rates of each fungicide in the tank mix.
  2. IPM - Headline should be integrated into an overall dis- ease and pest management program. Cultural practices known to reduce disease development should be followed. Consult your local extension specialist, certified crop advisor and/or BASF representative for additional IPM strategies established for your area. Headline may be used in agricultural extension advisory (disease fore- casting) programs, which recommend application timing based on environmental factors favorable for disease development.
  3. Monitoring - Monitor efficacy of all fungicides used in the disease management program against the targeted pathogen and record other factors that may influence fungicide performance and/or disease development. If a Group 11 target-site fungicide, such as Headline, appears to be less effective against a pathogen that it previously controlled or suppressed, contact a BASF representative, local extension specialist, or certified crop advisor for further investigation. Cleaning Spray Equipment Spraying equipment must be cleaned thoroughly before and after applying this product, particularly if a product with the potential to injure crops was used prior to Headline. Application Instructions Apply rates of Headline as instructed Table 2. Headline® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements section of the Headline container label. Apply Headline with ground sprayer, aerial equipment or through sprinkler irrigation equipment. Equipment should be checked frequently for calibration. Under low-level disease conditions, the minimum applica- tion rates can be used while maximum application rates and shortened spray schedules are recommended for severe or threatening disease conditions. Ground Application Apply Headline in sufficient water to ensure thorough cov- erage of foliage, blooms, and fruit. Refer to Additives and Tank Mixing Information section for adjuvant or crop oil restrictions for ground applications in corn. See Table 2. Headline® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements for in-furrow instructions. Aerial Application For aerial application in New York State, DO NOT apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams, marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish ponds). Unless otherwise specified on this label, use no less than 5 gallons of spray solution per acre. For aerial application to citrus orchards, use no less than 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. DO NOT apply when conditions favor drift from target area. Aerial application to alfalfa, barley, corn, oats, rye, soybeans, wheat and triticale Aerial applications of Headline may be made to corn, soy- beans, wheat and triticale in water volumes of 1 or more gallons of spray solution per acre (gpa). Aerial applications of Headline may be made to alfalfa, barley, oats and rye in water volumes of 2 or more gallons of spray solution per acre (gpa). The use of a crop oil or adjuvant may be used to improve spray coverage (see Additives and Tank Mixing Information section). Refer to the adjuvant prod- uct label for specific use directions and restrictions. For optimum results in cases of high disease pressure, use a minimum spray volume of 4 gpa. Select spray nozzles, pumping pressure, and sprayer height to provide medium- to-fine spray droplets that penetrate throughout the crop canopy. Spray calibration must be conducted to confirm spray droplet sizes. Continue to monitor spray application (including weather conditions) to assure proper droplet size and canopy penetration. 5

Spray Drift Management DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond area intended for application. Conditions that may contribute to drift include thermal inversion, wind speed and direction, spray nozzle/pressure combinations, spray droplet size, temperature/humidity, etc. Contact your state extension agent for spray drift prevention guidelines in your area. All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers. Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibil- ity of the applicator. Aerial Application Methods and Equipment The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applica- tor and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions. DO NOT apply under circumstances where possible drift to unprotected persons, to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged, or crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption can occur. DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. The following drift management requirements must be fol- lowed to avoid off-target drift movement from aerial applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements DO NOT apply to forestry applications, public health uses or to applications using dry formulations.

  1. The distance of the outermost nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or rotor.
  2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the airstream and never be pointed downward more than 45 degrees. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed. The applicator must be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the aerial drift reduction advisory information. Information on Droplet Size The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplet size consistent with acceptable efficacy. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind; Temperature and Humidity; and Temperature Inversions). Controlling Droplet Size: • Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. • Pressure - DO NOT exceed the nozzle manufacturers 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. • Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of noz- zles that provide uniform coverage. • Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is recommended practice. Significant deflection from the horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. • 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. Wind DO NOT apply at wind speeds greater than 15 mph. Drift potential is lowest when wind speed does not exceed 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type, determine drift potential at any given speed. Application should be avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift. Temperature and Humidity Low humidity and high temperatures increase the evapora- tion of spray droplets and, therefore, the likelihood of increased spray drift. Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/or high temperatures. 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 should not occur during a temperature inver- sion 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 should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. bodies of water or nontarget crops) is minimal and when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas. 6

Directions For Use Through Sprinkler Irrigation Systems Sprayer Preparation Chemical tank and injector system should be thoroughly cleaned. Flush system with clean water. Application Instructions Apply Headline® fungicide at rates and timings as required in this label. Sprinkler Irrigation Applications Use Precautions • Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation sys- tems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move irri- gation systems. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. • Add this product to the pesticide supply tank containing sufficient water to maintain a continuous flow by the injection equipment. In continuous moving systems, inject this product/water mixture continuously, applying the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT exceed 1/2 inch (13,577 gallons) per acre. In stationary or non- continuous moving systems, inject the product/water mixture in the last 15 to 30 minutes of each set allowing sufficient time for all of the required pesticide to be applied by all the sprinkler heads and applying the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non- uniform distribution of treated water. Thorough coverage of foliage is required for good control. Good agitation should be maintained during the entire application period. • If you have questions about calibration, you should con- tact state extension service specialists, 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 func- tional, 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 with- drawn 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 function- al pressure switch that 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 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 green- house systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place. Specific Instructions for Public Water Systems:

  1. Public water system means a system for the 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.
  2. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone, back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equiv- alent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide intro- duction. 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.
  3. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function- al, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
  4. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function- al, 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 sys- tem is either automatically or manually shut down.
  5. The system must contain functional interlocking 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.
  6. 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 fit- ted with a system interlock. Additives and Tank Mixing Information Headline can be tank mixed with most recommended fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biologi- cal control products, adjuvants, and additives as specified in Table 2. Headline ® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements. Under some conditions, the use of additives or adjuvants may improve the performance of Headline. However, all 7

varieties and cultivars have not been tested with possible tank mix combinations. Local conditions can also influence crop tolerance and may not match those under which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop injury may result from mixing Headline ® fungicide with other products. Therefore, before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecti- cides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biological control products, adjuvants and additives), test the combination on a small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of applica- tion. Always follow the most restrictive label. Adjuvant or Crop Oil Use Limitations on Corn (ground and aerial applications) Adjuvant crop damage can occur when an adjuvant or crop oil is used after the V8 stage and before the VT stage (the VT stage is defined as when the tassels last branch is completely visible outside the whorl). If an adjuvant or crop oil is used after the V8 stage and before the VT stage, the grower and user are responsible for contacting the adju- vant source (adjuvant distributor, retailer, or manufacturer) for advice and confirmation that the adjuvant has been tested and proven to be safe for application from V8 to VT corn stage. Refer to adjuvant and/or crop oil labels for spe- cific use directions and restrictions. Always follow the most restrictive label. Another fungicide or an insecticide may be included in the tank mix if needed and labeled for use on corn. Refer to the tank mix pesticide product labels for specific use direc- tions and restrictions. Always follow the most restrictive label. Mixing Order

  1. Water - Agitate a thoroughly clean sprayer tank three- quarters full of clean water.
  2. Agitation - Maintain constant agitation throughout mix- ing and application.
  3. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added.
  4. Products in PVA bags - Place any product contained in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before continuing.
  5. Water-dispersible products (such as dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-emulsions).
  6. Water-soluble products.
  7. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as Headline, or oil concentrates when applicable).
  8. Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN when applicable).
  9. Remaining quantity of water. Make sure that each component is thoroughly mixed and suspended before adding tank mix partners. Maintain con- stant agitation during application. See Table 2. Headline ® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements for more details. Restrictions and Limitations - All Crops • DO NOT exceed the maximum product rate (fl ozs/A) per year, the maximum rate per application, or the total num- ber of applications of Headline per year as stated in Table 1. Headline ® fungicide Restrictions and Limitations Overview and Table 2. Headline® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements. Preharvest interval (PHI) restrictions are also included in these tables. • DO NOT use Headline in greenhouse or transplant production. • For aerial application in New York State, DO NOT apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams, marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish ponds). Crop Rotation Restriction Crops listed on the Headline, Cabrio® EG fungicide and Pristine® fungicide labels may be planted immediately following the last application. For all other crops, DO NOT plant sooner than 14 days after the last application. Ground Application Directed or Banded Sprays The application rates shown in the following tables pertain to both aerial and ground (broadcast) methods of applica- tion. Headline may also be applied as a directed or banded spray over the rows or plant beds with alleys or row middles left unsprayed. For such uses, reduce the rate of Headline in proportion to the area actually sprayed. This adjustment is necessary to prevent applying the product at use rates higher than permitted on this label. Use the following formula to determine the broadcast equivalent rate for doing directed or banded sprays: sprayed bed width + unsprayed row middles = total row width Example: A directed spray application will be made to 45 inches plant beds that are separated by 15 inches of unsprayed row-middles. 45 inches sprayed bed width + 15 inches unsprayed row middles = 60 inches total row width The calculations to determine the appropriate equivalent rate of product to use for this situation based on a label broadcast rate of 12 fl ozs/acre follows: Sprayed Bed Width in Inches X Broadcast Rate = Band Rate Total Row Width in Inches Treated Acre Field Acre 45 Inches Sprayed Bed Width X 12 fl ozs Headline = 9 fl ozs Headline 60 Inches Total Row Width Treated Acre Field Acre 8

Application Directions. Begin applications of Headline prior to disease development. To maximize yields in cereals, it is important to protect the flag leaf. Apply Headline immediately after flag leaf emergence for optimum results. Headline does not control Fusarium head blight (head scab) or prevent the reductions in grain quality that can result from this disease. When head blight is a concern, growers should manage this disease with fungicides that are labeled for and effective in managing this disease, and with cultural practices like crop rotation and plowing to reduce crop residues that serve as an inoculum source. Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT apply more than 0.29 lb ai pyraclostrobin (= 18 fl ozs Headline) per acre per year. DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential applications of Headline before alternating to a labeled non-Group 11 fungicide with a different mode of action. DO NOT harvest barley hay or feed green-chopped barley within 14 days of last application.

  • For early season control of net blotch, Septoria leaf and glume blotch, spot blotch, and tan spot when conditions favor disease development, apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline either in combination with a herbicide application or when conditions favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a second application of Headline may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for disease or cur- rent disease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline rate for the second application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline. Early season control is not registered for use in California.

When head blight is a concern, growers should manage this disease with fungicides that are labeled for and effective in managing this disease, and with cultural practices like crop rotation and plowing to reduce crop residues that serve as an inoculum source. DO NOT harvest oat hay or feed green-chopped oats within 14 days of last application. Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT apply more than 0.29 lb ai pyraclostrobin (= 18 fl ozs Headline) per acre per year. DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential applications of Headline before alternating to a labeled non-Group 11 fungicide with a different mode of action.

  • For early season control of leaf blotch, Septoria blotch and stem rot, and spot blotch when conditions favor disease development, apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline either in combination with a herbicide application or when con- ditions favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a second application of Headline may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for disease or current disease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline rate for the second application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline. Early season control is not registered for use in California.

Begin applications of Headline prior to disease development. To maximize yields in cereals, protect the flag leaf. Apply Headline immediately after flag leaf emergence for optimum results. Headline does not control Fusarium head blight (head scab) or prevent the reductions in grain quality that can result from this disease. When head blight is a concern, growers should manage this disease with fungicides that are labeled for and effective in managing this disease, and with cultural practices like crop rotation and plowing to reduce crop residues that serve as an inoculum source. DO NOT harvest wheat hay or feed green-chopped wheat within 14 days after last application. Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT apply more than 0.29 lb ai pyraclostrobin (= 18 fl ozs Headline) per acre per year. DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential applications of Headline before alternating to a labeled non-Group 11 fungicide with a different mode of action.

  • For early season control of tan spot, Septoria leaf and glume blotch, and spot blotch when conditions favor disease development, apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline either in combination with a herbicide application or when con- ditions favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a second application of Headline may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for disease or current disease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline rate for the second application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline. Early season control is not registered for use in California.
