GENERAL INFORMATION
Apron XL WS is a systemic fungicide seed dressing specifically for control of systemic
downy mildews and diseases caused by soil-borne Pythium and Phytophthora spp.
When a rate range is specified, use higher rates of Apron XL WS when the disease
pressure is expected to be high.
For control of other soil-borne diseases, such as Rhizoctonia spp., Apron XL WS
should be applied in combination with other registered seed dressing fungicides.
Note: Apron XL WS isa systemic fungicide having a specific mode of action. Apron
XLWS could be subject to development of insensitive strains of fungi. Development of
insensitivity cannot be predicted. Therefore, Syngenta cannot assume liability for crop
damage resulting from insensitive strains of fungi. Consult with your State Agricultural
Experiment Station or Extension Service Specialist for guidance and ways to control
any possible Apron XL WS insensitive strains of fungi which may occur.
Apron XL WS may be applied as a water-based slurry with other registered seed
treatment insecticides and fungicides through standard slurry- or mist-type commercial
seed treatment equipment.
Mixing Instructions
Prepare no more mixture than is needed for the immediate operation. Thoroughly
clean spray equipment before using this product. Vigorous agitation is necessary to
dissolve the bag and disperse the product. Maintain maximum agitation
throughout the spraying operation. Do riot let the spray mixture stand overnight in
the spray tank. Flush the spray equipment thoroughly following each use.
Note: 1 lb. of Apron XL WS displaces 0.70 lb. of water.
Precautions: (1) Water soluble bags of Apron XL WS must be completely dissolved
and dispersed in plain water before any other tank mix partner is added to the spray
solution. (2) The maximum recommended concentration of Apron XL WS in slurries is 7
oz. of Apron XL WS in 10 oz. of water per 100 Ibs. of seed.
Apron XL WS Alone: Add ~ of the required amount of plain water to the spray or
mixing tank. With the agitator running, drop the required number of unopened soluble
bags of Apron XL WS into the tank all at once. Continue agitation while adding the
remainder of the water. Begin application of the spray solution after the bags have
dissolved and the material has completely dispersed into the mix water. Maintain
agitation until all of the mixture has been applied.

have dispersed uniformly into the mix water, continue to fill the tank with water. Then
add the desired amount of other products recommended for tank mixture and allow
them to become completelydispersed. Continue agitation to maintain a uniform
suspension until all of the spray solution has been applied.
If using Apron XL WS in a tank mixture with other seed treatment chemicals, observe
all directions for use, crops/sites, use rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations
which appear on the tank mix product label. No label dosage rate should be exceeded,
and the most restrictive label precautions and limitations should be followed. This
product should not be mixed with any product, which prohibits such mixing.
