ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 
Fluoxastrobin is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Prothioconazole-desthio and prothioconazole-S-methyl degradates of 
prothioconazole, are toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Imidacloprid is toxic to bees, birds, fish, and aquatic invertebrates. Runoff may be 
hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. Imidacloprid is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment and 
effects may be possible as a result of exposure to translocated residues on blooming crops or weeks. Ensure that planting equipment is 
functioning properly in accordance with manufacturing specifications to minimize seed coat abrasion during planting to reduce dust 
which can drift to blooming crops or weeds. The active ingredients in this product can be persistent for several months or longer. For 
terrestrial uses, do not apply to water or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. 
Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate. Treated seed exposed on soil surface may be hazardous 
to wildlife. Cover or collect seed spilled during loading. 
 
Surfacewater Advisory 
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with 
shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff for several months or 
more after application. 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 loading of this product from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of 
this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours. 
 
Groundwater Advisory 
Imidacloprid, metalaxyl, prothioconazole-desthio (a degradate of prothioconazole), and fluoxastrobin are known to leach through soil 
into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of agricultural use.
 This product may leach into groundwater if used in areas 
where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.

ROTATIONAL CROPS* 
In the event of a crop failure or harvest of a crop grown from seed treated with Acce leron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide, the field may 
be replanted immediately with any crops, except those with the 30-DAY MINIMUM PLANT BACK: Barley, bulb vegetables (crops of 
crop group 03-07), corn (field, pop, and sweet), rapeseed, sorg hum, wheat, cereals (including buckwheat, millet, oats, rice, ry e, and 
triticale) and safflower. After treating with other products, DO NOT rotate any crops except soybeans until after the longest plant-back 
interval for the active ingredient, as specified on the product label containing that active ingredient. 
* Cover crops for soil building or erosion control may be planted any time, but do NOT graze or har vest for food or feed, unles s a crop 
tolerance exists. 
 
NOTIFICATION of the crop rotational restriction must be conveyed to the grower by appropriate seed tag labeling or bag printing on all 
seed units. 
 
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATION 
For resistance management, please note that Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatment contains Group 3, 4, and 
Group 11 fungicides and a Group 4A insecticide. Any fungal or insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to 
Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatment and other Group 3, 4 or Group 11 fungicides or Group 4A insecticides. A 
gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides/insecticides are used repeatedly in the same fields. 
Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed. 
To delay fungicide and insecticide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: 
x Rotate the use of Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide S eed Treatment or other Group 3, 4, and Group 11 fungicides and 
Group 4A insecticides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pests. 
x Use tank mixtures with fungicides or insecticides from a di fferent 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. 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 provided by the Insecticide 
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 pest(s).

4 
 
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 benef its of an insecticide mixture are greatest 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. 
x Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungici de and insecticide use that includes scouting, uses historical 
information related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and which considers host plant or pest resistance, impact of 
environmental conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical 
control practices. 
x Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effect ively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive 
models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. 
x 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. 
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop adv isor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM 
recommendations for specific crops and pests. 
x For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience as 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937). 
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS 
x Uniform application of seed is necessary to ensure seed safety and best disease protection. 
x Dilute with a sufficient amount of water to achieve uniform app lication to seed which is necessary to ensure seed safety and 
best disease control. 
x Use high quality, properly cleaned seed. 
 
COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS 
May be used in combination with other registered Bayer CropScience fungicide seed treatments and insecticides. Pre-test for 
compatibility with other seed treatment products. 
 
Compatibility 
It is essential that before using Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatment in any tank mixture the compatibility of the 
mixture be established. Add Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatment at the labeled rate to a clean quart jar 
containing approximately one-half the amount of water intended for a final slurry application rate. Next, follow with all other tank mix 
components that will be used in the total slurry application. 
 
Add last the remaining balance of water. The total amount of volume is determined by the seed size and how much is necessary to 
ensure complete and uniform coverage and distribution on the seed, as well as the type of commercial seed treating application 
equipment that will be used. 
 
DO NOT USE MIXTURES THAT CURDLE, PRECIPITATE, OR GEL. USE TANK MIXTURES IMMEDIATELY AFTER MIXING WITH 
ADEQUATE AGITATION. 
 
Mixing Instructions 
1. When applied with seed treatment application equipment design ed to treat seed utilizing a treatment slurry mixture, add 
approximately 1/2 to 2/3 of the required water to the treatment slurry tank followed by the accompanying seed treatment 
products and Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatment. 
2. The order of product addition is dependent on the accompanying seed treatment products and application equipment used. 
3. Allow each slurry component to disperse completely prior to the next addition until a uniform suspension is obtained. 
4. After all slurry components have been added and dispersed co mpletely add the remaining 1/2 to 1/3 of required water for 
proper slurry volume and mix until uniform. For containers over 15 gallons, mix the product with the built-in mixer for 5-10 
minutes before each use. 
5. DO NOT store mixed slurries for greater than 72 hours. Always recirculate or mix thoroughly before using. 
6. Maintain adequate agitation until treatment slurry is applied. 
For additional instructions for mixing, use, slurry component mixing order, and other application suggestions contact your Bayer 
CropScience representative. 
 
Follow the most restrictive labeling of any tank mix partner. DO NOT tank mix with any product, which contains a prohibition on tank 
mixing. Acceleron 26FI Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatment may be applied as a water-based slurry with other registered se ed 
treatment insecticides and fungicides through standard slurry or mist-type commercial seed treatment equipment. 
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow th e applicable 
restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most r estrictive 
directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
