PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS HAZARD (TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS) CAUTION Harmful if swallowed or inhaled. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor or spray mist. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, or using tobacco. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Personal Protective Equipment Applicators and other handlers must wear: • Long-sleeved shirt and long pants • Chemical resistant gloves made of any waterproof material • Shoes plus socks Follow manufacturers instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions exist for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Engineering Control Statements When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.607(d-f)], the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.

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.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This product is toxic to estuarine/marine invertebrates, and freshwater/estuarine/marine aquatic plants. DO NOT apply directly 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. Surface Water Advisory This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rainwater. 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 prothioconazole and degradates 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. Ground Water Advisory Degradates of prothioconazole are known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of label use. These chemicals may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.

DO NOT enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 12 hours. Some crops have longer crop-specific REIs. Crop-specific REIs are listed in the Directions for Use section associated with the crop. PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water is: • Coveralls over long-sleeved shirt and pants • Chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material. • Shoes plus socks

PRODUCT INFORMATION PROLINE® 480 SC Fungicide is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide for the control of Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes and Deuteromycetes diseases in a variety of crops including barley, buckwheat, bushberry subgroup, low growing berry subgroup (ex cept strawberry), corn, cotton, cucurbit vegetables, dry shelled pea and bean crop subgroup, millet, oats, peanuts, rapeseed subgroup 20A (including c anola and Brassica carinata), rice, rye, soybean, sugar beets, triticale, wheat; conifer and hardwood nursery seeds and seedlings. Under conditions conducive to extended infection periods or high 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. Equipment must be properly calibrated before use.

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (FRAC) RECOMMENDATIONS For resistance management, PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide contains a Group 3 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide and other Group 3 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed. To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: • Rotate the use of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide or other Group 3 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. • Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different 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. • Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. • Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. • Monitor treated fungal/bacterial populations for resistance development. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and pathogens. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.

Spray Equipment/Volumes PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide may be applied by either ground, aerial and/or chemigation application equipment. Refer to the USE DIRECTIONS FOR SPECIFIC CROPS section of this label for approved applications for each crop. Apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of spray solution per acre by ground sprayer. Apply in a minimum of 5 gallons of spray solut ion per acre by aircraft spray equipment unless stated differently elsewhere in this label. Check equipment calibration frequently. C omplete coverage and uniform application are essential for the most effective results, especially when lower spray volumes are applied. If necessary, increase the spray volume per acre for complete crop coverage.

Mixing Procedures It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Prepare no more spray mixture than is necessary for the immediate operation. Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product. Maintain maximum agitation throughout the spray operation. DO NOT let the spray mixture stand overnight in the spray tank. Flush the spray equipment thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to the previously treated area or dispose of th e rinsate according to local regulations.

PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide Alone: Add ½ of the required amount of water to the mix tank. With the agitator running, add the PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide to the tank. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Begin application of the solution after the product has completely and uniformly dispersed into the mix water. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.

PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide + Tank-Mix Partners: Add ½ of the required amount of water to the mix tank. Start the agitator running before adding any of the tank -mix partners. In general, tank -mix partners should be added in this order: products packaged in water - soluble packaging, wettable powders, wettable granules (dry flowables), liquid flowables, liquids, and emulsifiable concentrates. Always allow each tank -mix partner to become fully and uniformly dispersed before adding the next product. Provide sufficient agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been applied. When using PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide in tank mixtures, all products in water -soluble packaging should be added to the tank before any other tank -mix partner, including PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide. Allow the water -soluble packaging to completely disperse before adding any other tank-mix partner to the tank. If using PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide in a tank mixture, observe all directions for use, crop/sites, use rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations; which appear on the tank -mix product label. No label dosage rate must be exceeded, and the most restrictive label precautions and limitations must be followed. This product must not be mixed with any product that prohibits such mixing. Tan k mixtures or other applications of products are permitted only in those states in which the products are registered. PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide is compatible with most insecticide, fungicide, herbicide, and foliar nutrient products. However, the physical compatibility of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide with tank-mix partners should be tested before use. To determine the physical compatibility of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide with other products, use a jar test, as described below. 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 liquids, and emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let stand for at least 5 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. For further information, contact your local Bayer CropScience representative. The crop safety of all potential tank mixes including additives and other pesticides on all crops has not been tested. Before applying any tank mixture not specifically recommended on this label, the safety to the target crop should be confirmed. To test for crop safety, apply PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide to the target crop in a small area and in accordance with label instructions for the target crop.

Soilborne/Seedling Disease Control PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide can provide control of certain soilborne/seedling diseases when applied as an in-furrow application at time of planting or as a banded application applied over the row at time of planting and up to row closure on certain crops. Refer to the USE DIRECTIONS FOR SPECIFIC CROPS section of the label to determine which crops contain recommendations for in-furrow and/or banded applications and for the optimal timings, rates and band widths of these applications.

In-Furrow Application • Apply PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide as an in-furrow application in 2.5 to 20 gallons of water at planting. • Mount the spray nozzle such that the spray is directed into the furrow just before the seeds are covered.

Banded Application • Apply PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide as a directed spray to the soil, using single or multiple nozzles which can be adjusted to provide uniform coverage of the lower stems and the soil surface surrounding the plants.

Aerial Application: Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when excessive spray drift may occur. DO NOT apply directly to humans or animals. Chemigation Application: Apply PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide through irrigation equipment only to crops for which chemigation is specified on this label. PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide alone or in combination with other pesticides, which are registered for application through irrigation systems, may be applied through irrigation systems. Apply this product only through center pivot, solid set, drip, linear, or moving wheel irrigation systems. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts. DO NOT connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system, unless the pesticide 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 re sponsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise. Operating Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick -closing check -valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
  3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, 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 system is either automatically or manually shut down.
  4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
  5. 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.
  6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump), effectively desig ned, and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
  7. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended.

Center Pivot Irrigation Equipment Notes: (1) Use only with drive systems, which provide uniform water distribution. (2) DO NOT use end guns when chemigating PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide through center pivot systems because of non-uniform application. Determine the size of the area to be treated. Determine the time required to apply 1/8-1/2 inch of water over the area to be treated when the system and injection equipment are operated at normal pressures as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. When

6

applying PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform distribution. Run the system at 80-95% of the manufacturers rated capacity. Using water, determine the injection pump output when operated at normal line pressure. Determine the amount of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system. Add the required amount of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide and sufficient water to meet the injection time requirements to the solution tank. Make sure the system is fully charged with water before starting injection of the PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide solution. Time the injection to last at least as long as it takes to bring the system to full pressure. Maintain constant sol ution tank agitation during the injection period. Continue to operate the system until the PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide solution has cleared the sprinkler head. Solid Set and Moving Wheel Irrigation Equipment When applying PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide through irrigation equipment use the lowest obtainable water volume while maintaining uniform distribution. Determine the amount of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide required to treat the area covered by the irrigation system. Add the required amount of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide into the same quantity of water used to calibrate the injection period. Operate the system at the same pressure and time interval established during the calibration. Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. Continue to operate the system until the PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide solution has cleared the last sprinkler head. Using Water from Public Water Systems 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. Chem igation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced- pressure zone (RPZ), back flow preventer or the functional equivalent 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 introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between the flow 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. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick -closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoi d-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 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 or in cases wher e there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. Systems mus t 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. Adjuvants: PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide is recommended to be used with a registered non-ionic surfactant at the lowest recommended labeled rate for most crops. Refer to the individual crop recommendations for those specific uses where a surfactant is not recommended.

SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.

Importance Of Droplet Size An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions.

Controlling Droplet Size Ground Boom • Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate. • Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size. • Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift.

Controlling Droplet Size Aircraft • Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.

Boom Height Ground Boom For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.

Release Height Aircraft Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.

Shielded Sprayers Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.

7

Temperature And Humidity When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.

Temperature Inversions Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or 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. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.

Wind Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.

ROTATIONAL RESTRICTIONS Treated areas may be replanted with any crop specified on this label as soon as practical after last application. For crops not listed on this label, DO NOT plant back within 30 days of last application.

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (FRAC) RECOMMENDATIONS For resistance management, PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide contains a Group 3 (prothioconazole) fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide and other Group 3 (prothioconazole) fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

This product is toxic to estuarine/marine invertebrates, and freshwater/estuarine/marine aquatic plants. DO NOT apply directly 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. Surface Water Advisory This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rainwater. 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 prothioconazole and degradates 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. Ground Water Advisory Degradates of prothioconazole are known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of label use. These chemicals may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Read the entire label before using this product.

For use only in commercial seed treatment equipment. DO NOT use in hopper box, planter box, slurry box, or other on-farm seed treatment applications.

PRODUCT INFORMATION PROLINE® 480 SC Fungicide: • is a broad-spectrum systemic seed treatment fungicide for the control of Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes and Deuteromycetes diseases in a variety of crops including alfalfa, barley, buckwheat, cotton, dried shelled pea and bean (except for soybean) subgroup, millet (Pearl & Proso), oats, rice, rye, sorghum, soybeans, triticale, and wheat.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS • PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide provides control or suppression of many important diseases of alfalfa, barley, buckwheat, cotton, dried shelled pea and bean (except for soybean) subgroup, millet (Pearl & Proso), oats, rice, rye, sorghum, soybeans, triticale, and wheat. • Apply using standard slurry or mist-type seed treatment equipment. Uniform application of seed is necessary to ensure seed safety and best disease protection. Product should be diluted with sufficient water to ensure complete seed coverage. Consult a seed treatment specialist regarding slurry rates recommended for the crop to be treated with Proline 480 SC Fungicide. For best results, apply to high quality, properly cleaned seed. • When reference is made to disease suppression, suppression can mean either erratic control from good to fair or consistent control at a level below that obtained with the best commercial disease control products. • Under conditions conducive to extended infection periods or high 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. • Equipment must be properly calibrated before use.

USE RESTRICTIONS • DO NOT use in hopper box, planter box, slurry box, or other on-farm seed treatment applications. • This product does not contain colorant. The purchaser of this product is responsible for ensuring that all seed treated with this product are adequately dyed with a suitable color to prevent its accidental use as food for man or feed for animals. Refer to 21CFR, part 2.25. Any colorant added to treated seed must be cleared for use under 40CFR, Part 153.155(c). • In California Registered only for use in commercial seed treating establishments. DO NOT use for “on-farm” use. • Store treated seeds away from food and feedstuffs. • DO NOT allow children, pets, or livestock to have access to treated seed. • Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants, shoes, socks, and chemical-resistant gloves when handling treated seed. • 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. • Treated seeds exposed on soil surface may be hazardous to wildlife. Cover or collect treated seeds spilled during loading and planting (such as in row). • Dispose of all excess treated seed. • DO NOT contaminate water bodies when disposing of planting equipment wash waters. • Plant treated seed into the soil at a minimum depth of 1/2 inch or greater to minimize exposure. • DO NOT plant treated seed by broadcasting to the soil surface. Ensure that all planted seeds are thoroughly incorporated by the planter during planting, additional incorporation may be required to thoroughly cover exposed seeds. • Dispose of seed packaging or containers in accordance with local requirements. DO NOT use empty seed bags for any other purpose. • To reduce seed dust which can drift onto blooming crops or weeds, ensure that planting equipment is functioning properly in accordance with manufacturers recommendations. Surplus seed or empty seed containers must be stored or disposed according to local federal regulations. • After the seeds have been planted, DO NOT enter or allow worker entry into the treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 12 hours. Exception: Once the seeds are planted in soil or other planting media, the Worker Protection Standard allows workers to enter the treated area without restriction if there will be no worker contact with the treated seeds in the soil or with the planting media. • DO NOT use with handheld application equipment, including backpack or mechanically/manually pressurized hand equipment. Refer to the specific use directions and restrictions in each Crop, Crop Group or Crop Subgroup table.

29

ROTATIONAL RESTRICTIONS Treated areas may be replanted with any crop specified on this label as soon as practical after last application. For crops not listed on this label. DO NOT plant back within 30 days of last application.

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (FRAC) RECOMMENDATIONS For resistance management, PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide contains a Group 3 (prothioconazole) fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide and other Group 3 (prothioconazole) fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed. To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: • Rotate the use of PROLINE 480 SC Fungicide or other Group 3 (prothioconazole) fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. • Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different 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. • Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. • Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. • Monitor treated fungal/bacterial populations for resistance development. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and pathogens. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.
