PRODUCT INFORMATION
CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals is a seed treatment product containing the active
ingredients: thiamethoxam (insecticide) and sedaxane, difenoconazole and mefenoxam
(fungicides). CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals seed treatment protects against damage
from wireworm and European chafer early season insects and also protects against
certain seed-borne, soil-borne, and early season foliar diseases of cereal crops.
Thiamethoxam protects against certain chewing and sucking insects through contact
and ingestion.
Sedaxane enhances the protections against Ustilago spp. and Rhizoctonia spp.
Difenoconazole provides protection against several seed and seedling diseases of
cereals. Mefenoxam provides protection against damping-off caused by Pythium spp.
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
THIAMETHOXAM GROUP 4A INSECTICIDE
For resistance management, CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals contains a Group
4A/thiamethoxam insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally
resistant to CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals and other Group 4A insecticides. The
resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are
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.
In order to maintain susceptibility to this class of chemistry:
x Use products at their full, recommended doses.
x Use appropriate, well-maintained equipment. Use recommended water volumes and
apply at optimal temperatures in order to obtain optimal treatment.
x When rate ranges are given, use the higher rate within the listed rate range when
insect pressure is expected to be high.
x Avoid using a single active ingredient or mode of action (same insecticide group)
exclusively for season long control of insect species with more than one generation
per crop season.
x For insect species with successive or overlapping generations, use a treatment
window approach. A treatment window is a period of time defined by the stage of
crop development and the biology of the pests of concern. Within the treatment
window, depending on the length of residual activity, single or consecutive
applications may be made using seed, in-furrow, or foliar treatments unless
otherwise excluded by product labels. Do not exceed the maximum amount of this
insecticides mode of action allowed per growing season.
CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals
-7-
x Following a treatment window of this insecticides mode of action, rotate to a
treatment window of effective products with a different mode of action before making
additional applications of this insecticide.
Syngenta encourages responsible product stewardship to ensure effective long term
control of the insect pests on this label.
For additional information on Insect Resistance Management:
x Contact Syngenta representatives at 1-800-334-9481
x Contact your local Cooperative Extension Service specialist, pest control advisor,
or certified crop advisor

http://www.irac-online.org
DIFENOCONAZOLE GROUP 3 FUNGICIDE
MEFENOXAM GROUP 4 FUNGICIDE
SEDAXANE GROUP 7 FUNGICIDE
For resistance management, please note that CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals contains
Group 3/difenoconazole, Group 4/mefenoxam and Group 7/sedaxane fungicides. Any
fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to CruiserMaxx Vibrance
Cereals and other Group 3, Group 4 and Group 7 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.
Difenoconazole belongs to the triazole class of chemistry and is a demethylation
inhibitor of sterol biosynthesis (DMI) which disrupts membrane synthesis of the fungal
cell. 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.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
x Rotate the use of Vibrance Quattro or other Group 3, 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.
CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals
-8-
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.
Syngenta encourages responsible product stewardship to ensure effective long term
control of the fungal diseases on this label.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Important: Always re-circulate CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals thoroughly before using.
Follow the manufacturer application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being
used.
Apply CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry
seed treatment equipment which provides uniform seed coverage. Uneven or
incomplete seed coverage may not give the desired level of insect or disease control.
Thoroughly mix the specified amount of CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals into the required
amount of water or liquid inoculant for the slurry treater and dilution rate to be used.
Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted.
CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals is compatible with several liquid inoculant products.
Consult the manufacturer of the inoculant product and a Syngenta representative for
directions before applying CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals with inoculants.
The total application volume must be sufficient to provide desired level of coverage.
Dilution is typically done with water or liquid inoculants.
Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out
of the solution. Clean out any unused product from the treater after treating or maintain
constant agitation if the leftover slurry will be maintained overnight.
CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals
