|
||
with registration under FIFRA, as amended, is acceptable.
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then
|
||
please be aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide,
|
||
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is
|
||
false or misleading, the product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute
|
||
under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements EPA may
|
||
consider false or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced on
|
||

PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS is a seed treatment product containing the active
|
||
ingredients thiamethoxam (insecticide) and fludioxonil, thiabendazole, mefenoxam and
|
||
sedaxane (fungicides). THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS protects against damage from
|
||
listed early-season insects, soil-borne and seed-borne diseases of soybeans.
|
||
|
||
Thiamethoxam is a systemic seed treatment insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid
|
||
class of chemistry. Thiamethoxam protects against listed chewing and sucking insects
|
||
through contact and ingestion.
|
||
|
||
Mefenoxam fungicide is active against Pythium, Phytophthora and systemic downy
|
||
mildew.
|
||
|
||
Thiabendazole fungicide is active for protection against phomopsis spp. to improve
|
||
germination and early season seedling health. Thiabendazole also suppresses seed-
|
||
borne Sclerotinia and Phomopsis species.
|
||
|
||
Fludioxonil fungicide is active against Fusarium and Rhizoctonia, and suppresses seed-
|
||
borne Sclerotinia and Phomopsis species.
|
||
|

Fungicide Resistance Management
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, please note that THX-MXM/FDL/TBZ/SDX FS contains
|
||
|
||
THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS
|
||
Page 7
|
||
(MASTER)
|
||
|
||
Group 1/ thiabendazole, Group 4/ mefenoxam, Group 7/sedaxane and Group
|
||
12/fludioxonil fungicides. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally
|
||
resistant to THX-MXM/FDL/TBZ/SDX FS and other Group 1, Group 4, Group 7 or
|
||
Group 12 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.
|
||
|
||
Thiabendazole belongs to the methyl-benzimidazole carbamate class of chemistry
|
||
which disrupts ß-tubulin assembly in mitosis. Mefenoxam belongs to the phenylamide
|
||
class of chemistry which interferes with fungal RNA synthesis. Sedaxane is a succinate
|
||
dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) and belongs to the carboxamide class of chemistry
|
||
which disrupts cellular respiration and energy generation. Fludioxonil belongs to the
|
||
phenylpyrrole class of chemistry which interferes with a MAP/histidine protein kinase in
|
||
osmotic signal transduction.
|
||
|
||
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
x Rotate the use of THX-MXM/FDL/TBZ/SDX FS or other Group 1, Group 4, Group 7
|
||
or Group 12 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that
|
||
control the same pathogens.
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development.
|
||
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional
|
||
pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crop
|
||
and pathogens.
|
||
x For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-866-
|
||
Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or
|
||
university extension specialist to report resistance.

|
||
Insecticide Resistance Management
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS contains a Group
|
||
4A/thiamethoxam insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally
|
||
resistant to THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS and other Group 4A insecticides. The
|
||
resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are
|
||
|
||
THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS
|
||
Page 8
|
||
(MASTER)
|
||
|
||
used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies
|
||
should be followed.
|
||
|
||
Thiamethoxam is a systemic insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid class of chemistry
|
||
which includes nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists.
|
||
|
||
|
||
To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps:
|
||
x Rotate the use of THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS or other Group 4A insecticides
|
||
within a growing season, or among growing seasons, with different groups that
|
||
control the same pests.
|
||
x 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 a
|
||
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).
|
||
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
|
||
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 pest management program for insecticide/acaricides use
|
||
that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop
|
||
rotation, record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other
|
||
chemical control practices.
|
||

|
||
For any other crop, the minimum plant back interval is 120 days from the date the
|
||
THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS treated seed was planted. A cover crop other than the
|
||
crops listed above that is planted for erosion control or soil improvement may be planted
|
||
sooner than the 120-day interval; however, the crop may not be grazed or harvested for
|
||
food or feed.
|
||
|
||
|
||
MIXING PROCEDURES
|
||
|
||
Important: Always re-circulate THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS thoroughly before using.
|
||
|
||
Consult the manufacturer of the application equipment you plan to use for suitability for
|
||
this application and for instructions on operation and calibration of the equipment.
|
||
Follow the manufacturer application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being
|
||
used.
|
||
|
||
Required Dye Statement: Seed treated with this product must be visually identifiable
|
||
from untreated seed by the use of an approved colorant or dye to prevent accidental
|
||
use of treated seed as food for humans or feed for animals. Refer to 21 CFR, Part 2.25.
|
||
Any colorant or dye added to treated seed must be cleared for use in accordance with
|
||
40 CFR, Part 153.155(c).

(MASTER)
|
||
|
||
|
||
Apply THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry or
|
||
direct inject seed treatment equipment which provides uniform seed coverage. Uneven
|
||
or incomplete seed coverage may not give the desired level of disease control.
|
||
Thoroughly mix the specified amount of THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS into the required
|
||
amount of water or liquid inoculant for the slurry treater and dilution rate to be used. For
|
||
direct product inject systems, add the required amount of water or liquid inoculant
|
||
during application.
|
||
|
||
Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted.
|
||
THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS is compatible with several liquid inoculant products.
|
||
Consult the maker of the inoculant product and a Syngenta representative for directions
|
||
before applying THX/MXM/FLD/TBZ/SDX FS with inoculants.
|
||
|
||
The total application volume must be sufficient to provide desired level of coverage.
|
||
Dilution is typically done with water or liquid inoculants. The minimum slurry volume to
|
||
achieve minimum adequate coverage is 4.0 fluid ounces per 100 pounds of seed
|
||
assuming an average seed size of 3,000 seeds per pound (slurry volume will vary
|
||
depending on seed size). More diluent may be required to obtain complete coverage.
|
||
|
||
Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out
|
||
of the solution.
|
||
|
||
Allow seed to dry before bagging or reprocessing directly after treating operation.
|
||
|
||
Follow planter manufacturer specifications for use of talc or other hopper box additives
|
||
at planting. Seed must be completely dry before adding to planter.
|
||
|
||
|
||
