Product Information F4034-5 is a soluble seed treatment formulation containing the biopesticides Bacillus velezensis strain RTI301 and Bacillus subtilis strain RTI477. F4034-5 provides early season protection of seedlings against diseases caused by Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium spp., and Phytophthora spp. in a variety of crops. Seed must be sound and well-cured before treatment. Treatment of highly mechanically scarred or damaged seed, or seed known to be of low vigor and poor quality, may result in reduced germination and/or reduction of seed and seedling vigor. Conduct germination tests on a small portion of treated seed using equipment similar to that planned for treating the total seed lot before committing the total seed lot to treatment with this product or this product in combination with other seed treatment products. Due to seed quality, crop or variety sensitivity, and seed storage conditions beyond the control of FMC Corporation, no claims are made to guarantee the germination of carry-over seed or propagating material for all crop seed.

Seed Treatment Equipment F4034-5 may be used both for commercial and for on-farm application. F4034-5 can be applied with mechanical, slurry, or mist-type seed treating equipment, as long as the equipment can be calibrated to accurately and uniformly apply the product to seed without undue mechanical damage to the seed. Uniform application to seed is important for all seed treatment products.

Application Instructions Seed must be sound and well-cured before treatment. Refer to the application rates below. F4034-5 is diluted with water and/or mixed with other products to attain an appropriate slurry application volume (fl. oz./cwt slurry rates) to provide effective treating. Mix the targeted application rate from those listed on this label with a sufficient quantity of water or other formulated product to attain a total slurry rate of at least 4 fl. oz. of slurry (product + water)/100 lb. of seed on large seed crops such as corn and soybeans. On smaller size seeds such as turf grasses or canola, a final targeted slurry rate of at least 8 fl. oz. of slurry (product + water)/100 lb. of seed is necessary to ensure adequate and uniform coverage. The appropriate volume of slurry depends on crop, temperature, humidity, type of treater, and other factors and should be adjusted per normal treating practices for the circumstances. Contact your local supplier or distributor representative for specific recommendations for slurry volumes and questions on any tank mixes or restrictions.

F4034-5 plus water and/or other treatments must be mixed thoroughly prior to treating seed. Recalibrate treating equipment to compensate for the required slurry rate to ensure all products are applied at the correct rate.

NOTE: This product does not contain a dye. To comply with 40 CFR 153.155, all seed commercially treated with this product must be colored with an EPA-approved dye or colorant of a suitable color to prevent accidental use as food for humans or feed for animals.

Do not use F4034-5 in combination with other seed treatment products unless compatibility has been verified. Read and follow carefully all label directions of each product used in the treating mixture. When using combinations of products, the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions must be followed.

Seed may be treated either on a per seed unit basis or on a per weight of seed basis, as shown in the table below.
