PRODUCT INFORMATION
Vibrance Maxx is a seed treatment product containing the active ingredients sedaxane,
mefenoxam, and fludioxonil. Vibrance Maxx protects against damage from listed seed and
soil-borne diseases of legumes.
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
MEFENOXAM GROUP 4 FUNGICIDE
SEDAXANE GROUP 7 FUNGICIDE
FLUDIOXONIL GROUP 12 FUNGICIDE
For resistance management, please note that Vibrance Maxx contains Group 4/
mefenoxam, Group 7/sedaxane and Group 12/fludioxonil fungicides. Any fungal
population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Vibrance Maxx and other 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.
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 osmotic signal transduction.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
x Rotate the use of Vibrance Maxx or other 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.
Vibrance Maxx
Page 7
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 PROCEDURES
Important: Always re-circulate Vibrance Maxx thoroughly before using.
Follow the manufacturer application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being
used.
Apply Vibrance Maxx 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 disease control. Thoroughly mix the specified amount of
Vibrance Maxx 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. Vibrance
Maxx is compatible with several liquid inoculant products. Consult the maker of the
inoculant product and a Syngenta representative for directions before applying Vibrance
Maxx 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 adequate coverage is 4 fluid ounces per 100 pounds of seed for all legumes
except chickpea. For chickpea, a total minimum slurry volume of 8 fluid ounces per 100
pounds of seed is recommended for optimal coverage. More diluent may be required to
obtain complete coverage depending on seed surface or shape.
Vibrance Maxx
Page 8
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.
Vibrance Maxx contains an EPA-approved colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the
seed as required by the Federal Seed Act. Allow seed to dry before bagging.
Follow planter manufacturer specifications for use of talc or other hopper box additives at
planting. Seed must be completely dry before adding to planter.
Tank Mixtures
Vibrance Maxx mixes easily with water and other water-based seed treatments
manufactured by Syngenta and many other companies. When mixing with products from
other manufacturers, test the compatibility prior to use by conducting a jar test: Mix all
intended seed treatments with a proportional amount of water to achieve the desired slurry
mixture in a clear glass container. Mix well and allow mixture to sit for one hour. Remix
and observe for incompatibility.
Mixing Vibrance Maxx with tank-mix partners: Add ½ of the required water to the mix tank
and turn on the agitation. Mechanical agitation is preferred. If using wettable powders,
add them first to clean water allowing them to completely disperse prior to adding Vibrance
Maxx or other products. Allow each tank-mix partner to completely disperse before adding
the next product. Add the remaining amount of water and agitate. Maintain agitation until
the entire slurry mixture has been used.
It is the pesticide user's 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.
SEED BAG LABEL REQUIREMENTS
The Federal Seed Act requires that bags containing treated seeds shall be labeled with the
following statements:
x This seed has been treated with fludioxonil, mefenoxam, and sedaxane fungicides.
x Do not use for feed, food, or oil purposes.
In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires the following statements on
bags containing seeds treated with Vibrance Maxx:
xGround Water Advisory:
Mefenoxam is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain
conditions as a result of agricultural use. Fludioxonil has properties and
characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. These
chemicals may leach into the ground water if used in areas where soils are
permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
Vibrance Maxx
Page 9
x 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
the ethanol by-products that are used in agronomic practice.
x Do not allow children, pets, or livestock to have access to treated seed.
x Store away from feed and foodstuffs.
x Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants and chemical resistant gloves when handling
treated seed.
x Treated seeds exposed on soil surface may be hazardous to wildlife. Cover or
collect treated seeds spilled during loading.
x Treated seed must be planted into the soil at a depth greater than 1 inch.
x Dispose of all excess treated seed. Leftover treated seed may be double-sown
around the headland or buried away from water sources in accordance with local
requirements.
x Do not contaminate water bodies when disposing of planting equipment wash
waters.
x Dispose of seed packaging in accordance with local requirements.
x In the event of crop failure or harvest of a crop grown from this treated seed, the
field may be replanted as follows:
o Immediately to Cereal Grains Crop Group 15, Corn (field, pop, sweet), Cotton,
Legume Vegetables (Succulent or Dried) Crop Group 6, Peanut, Potato,
Rapeseed (including canola) Crop Subgroup 20A, Soybean, and Sugarbeet.
o All other crops may be replanted a minimum of 30 days after planting seed
treated with Vibrance Maxx.
x DO NOT apply more than 0.25 lb ai/Acre (115 g ai/Acre) per calendar year of
