ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 
This pesticide is toxic to mammals, fish and aquatic invertebrates. For terrestrial uses, do not 
apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below 
the mean high-water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in 
neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or 
rinsate. 
 
Ground Water Advisory: This pesticide has properties and characteristics associated with 
chemicals detected in ground water. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in 
areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. 
 
Surface Water Advisory: This pesticide can contaminate surface water through aerial and 
ground spray applications. Under some conditions, it may also have a high potential for runoff 
into surface water after application. These include poorly draining or wet soils with readily 
visible slopes toward adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas, areas overlaying 
extremely shallow ground water, areas with in- field canals or ditches that drain to surface

[Optional state restriction language for the state of NY: Not for sale, distribution, or use in -- 
Counties of New York State.] 
 
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT 
For resistance management, please note that F9651-2 contains both a Group 7 (Bixafen) and 
Group 3 (Tebuconazole) fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally 
resistant to F9651-2 and other Groups 7 or 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 must be followed. 
 
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: 
x Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different group that a re 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 u se 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 effec tively 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 advi sor for any additional 
pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and 
pathogens. 
x For further information or to report suspected resistance cont act your pesticide 
distributor or university extension specialist.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT 
SENSITIVE AREAS: 
The pesticide must only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., 
residential areas, bodies of water, known habitats for threatened or endangered species, non-
target crops) is minimal (e.g., when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas). 
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The interaction 
of many equipment and weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The 
applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors when making 
decisions. 
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target drift 
movement from aerial applications to agricultural field crops. These requirements do not apply 
to forestry applications, public health uses or to applications using dry formulation. 
1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of 
the wingspan or rotor. 
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air str eam and never be pointed 
downwards more than 45 degrees. 
Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed. The applicator must be 
familiar with and take into account the information covered below. 
 
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE: 
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift 
management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and 
control. Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential but will not prevent drift if applications 
are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind, Temperature 
and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions below). 
 
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE: 
x Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest pract ical spray volume. 
Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. 
x Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer’s recommended pressures. For 
many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are 
needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. 
x Number of nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that pro vide uniform 
coverage. 
x Nozzle Orientation - The nozzles must be oriented such that th e spray is released 
parallel to the airstream. This produces larger droplets than other orientations. 
Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential. 
x Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the inten ded application. With 
most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-
drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets 
and the lowest drift. 
 
BOOM LENGTH: 
For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or 
rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width. 
 
APPLICATION HEIGHT:

P a g e | 6 
Applications must not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest 
plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest 
height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind. 
 
SWATH ADJUSTMENT: 
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. 
Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this 
displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance must 
increase, with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.) 
 
WIND: 
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 - 10 mph. However, many factors, including 
droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed. Application must 
be avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. 
 
NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator must be familiar with local 
wind patterns and how they affect spray drift. 
 
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY: 
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets 
to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both 
hot and dry. 
 
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS: 
Applications must not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high. 
Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to 
remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the 
light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by 
increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and 
light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning. Their 
presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be 
identified 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. 
 
APPLICATION AND CALIBRATION TECHNIQUES FOR CHEMIGATION 
 
Apply this product only through center pivot, motorized lateral move, traveling gun, solid set 
and portable (wheel move, side roll, end tow, or hand move) irrigation system(s). Do not apply 
this product through any other type of irrigation system. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or 
illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of treated water. If 
you have questions about calibration, you must contact State Extension Service specialists, 
equipment manufacturers or other experts. Do not apply this product through irrigation systems 
connected to a public water system. “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 per 
year. Controls for both irrigation water and pesticide injection systems must be functionally 
interlocked, to automatically terminate pesticide injection when the irrigation water pump motor 
stops. A person knowledgeable of the irrigation system and responsible for its operation shall

P a g e | 7 
be present to discontinue pesticide injection and make necessary adjustments, should the 
need arise. 
 
The irrigation water pipeline must be fitted with a functional, automatic, quick-closing check 
valve to prevent the flow of treated irrigation water back toward the water source. The pipeline 
must also be fitted with a vacuum relief valve and low pressure drain, located between the 
irrigation water pump and the check valve, to prevent back-siphoning of treated irrigation water 
into the water source. Always inject F9651-2 Fungicide into irrigation water after it discharges 
from the irrigation pump and after it passes through the check valve. Never inject pesticides 
into the intake line on the suction side of the pump. Pesticide injection equipment must be 
fitted with a functional, normally closed, solenoid- operated valve located on the intake side of 
the injection pump. Interlock this valve to the power system, to prevent fluid from being 
withdrawn from the chemical supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or 
manually turned off. 
 
The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve 
to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. 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. Spray 
mixture in the chemical supply tank must be agitated always, otherwise settling and uneven 
application may occur. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for 
treatment. Systems must 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. 
 
F9651-2 Fungicide may be used through two basic types of sprinkler irrigation systems as 
outlined in Sections A and B below. Determine which type of system is in place, then refer to 
the appropriate directions provided for each type. 
 
A. Center Pivot, Motorized Lateral Move and Traveling Gun Irrig ation Equipment 
 
For injection of pesticides, these continuously moving systems must use a positive 
displacement injection pump, of either diaphragm or piston type, constructed of materials that 
are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock and capable 
of injection at pressures approximately 2-3 times those encountered within the irrigation water 
line. Venturi applicator units cannot be used on these systems. Thoroughly mix specified 
amount of F9651-2 Fungicide for acreage to be covered into same amount of water used 
during calibration and inject into system continuously for one revolution or run. Mixture in the 
chemical supply tank must be continuously agitated during the injection run. Shut off injection 
equipment after one revolution or run but continue to operate irrigation system until F9651-2 
Fungicide has been cleared from last sprinkler head. 
 
B. Solid Set and Portable (Wheel Move, Side Roll, End Tow, or H and Move) Irrigation 
Equipment 
With stationary systems, an effectively designed in-line venturi applicator unit is preferred 
which is constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides; however, a positive-
displacement pump can also be used. Determine acreage covered by sprinkler. Fill tank of 
injection equipment with water and adjust flow to use contents over a thirty to forty-five-minute 
period. Mix desired amount of F9651-2 Fungicide for acreage to be covered with water so that 
the total mixture of F9651-2 Fungicide plus water in the injection tank is equal to the quantity of 
water used during calibration and operate entire system at normal pressures recommended by

P a g e | 8 
the manufacturer of injection equipment used, for amount of time established during 
calibration. Mixture in the chemical supply tank must be continuously agitated during the 
injection run. F9651-2 Fungicide can be injected at the beginning or end of the irrigation cycle 
or as a separate application. Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed and 
continue to operate irrigation system until F9651-2 Fungicide has been cleared from last 
sprinkler head. 
 
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS 
Ensure the sprayer tank, filter and lines are clean, then partially fill the spray tank with clean 
water. Measure the required amount of F9651-2 Fungicide and add this to the tank. 
Agitate to ensure thorough mixing while filling tank with remaining water. Maintain agitation 
during application and apply with properly calibrated application equipment. Do not allow spray 
mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods, as some chemical breakdown may occur. 
A high quality, nonionic spreader can be used as a spray tank additive for every application. 
F9651-2 Fungicide must be added to the tank before the addition of any adjuvant. Consult the 
adjuvant label or manufacturer for crop tolerance and safety information when used with 
F9651-2 Fungicide. 
 
APPLICATION TIMING 
F9651-2 Fungicide can be used in a preventive spray program to manage diseases in labeled 
crops. Complementary dual modes of action provided by F9651-2 Fungicide helps prevent the 
development of disease resistance. It is directed that this product be used within an Integrated 
Pest Management Program (IPM), rotating with non FRAC 3 or FRAC 7 fungicides. Carefully 
read, and understand, and follow all directions and precautions. Disease pressure and 
environmental conditions will determine application rates and the length of the spray intervals. 
Consult local disease advisory system recommendations to determine the predicted disease 
pressure and the associated application rates and intervals. 
 
COMPATIBILITY 
The tank mixing behavior of this fungicide with other pesticides has not been fully investigated. 
If tank mixing with other pesticides is desirable, conduct a jar test with rates and volumes of 
carrier typically used in an agricultural application. Look for signs of separation, globules, 
sludge, flakes or other precipitates. DO NOT tank mix with the other pesticide if the jar test with 
F9651-2 Fungicide has indicated incompatibility. Follow the most restrictive labeling on this 
label or the tank mixture partner. Before adding F9651-2 Fungicide along with other additives 
or pesticide products to a spray tank, a compatibility jar test must be conducted. 
 
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. 
 
Compatibility Jar Test: 
F9651-2 Fungicide is compatible with most products, however not all have been tested. Use 
the following compatibility test to ensure physical compatibility. 
 
Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to approximately one quart of 
water with agitation. Add wettable powders and water dispersible granular products first, next 
liquid flowables, then emulsifiable concentrates, and last liquid soluble products. After thorough 
mixing, allow this mixture to stand for 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be 
readily remixed, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same

P a g e | 9 
procedure for adding products to the spray tank. Use tank mix combinations on a small 
number of plants before treating larger areas. When tank mixing, follow more restrictive 
labeling of any tank mix partner. Do not tank mix with any product that contains a prohibition 
on tank mixing. 
 
Before applying any tank mixture not specifically directed on this label, the crop safety of the 
target crop must be confirmed by applying the mixture to a small area of the target crop in 
accordance to the label instructions. 
 
FOLIAR APPLICATION 
Maximum benefit of F9651-2 Fungicide from foliar applications requires coverage both outside 
and inside the plant canopy. Thorough coverage of foliage is obtained by using proper spray 
pressure, a minimum of 10 gallons per acre, appropriate nozzles that provide uniform spray 
distribution and minimize drift, nozzle spacing and sprayer speed. Follow directions of nozzle 
manufacturer for nozzle pressures.

5.0 – 6.6 fl. oz./A 
 
 (0.163 – 0.215 lb. a.i./A 
Soil disease: For best control in 
high infestation level field, apply 
three applications by ground, 
aerial and/or chemigation using 
the maximum rate at 2, 3 and 4 
of a 7- application preventive 
spray schedule. For most fields 
two applications at application 
timings 2 and 4 (28-day interval) 
is advised. 
 
Apply as a 30-40 gal/A spray, 
targeting the root and pod zone 
with nozzles producing large 
droplets to penetrate canopy. For 
soil-borne diseases, rainfall or 
irrigation will optimize activity of 
F9651-2. 
 
Foliar disease: Apply F9651-2 
by aerial, ground and/or 
chemigation. Apply the lower 
rate early and higher later in a 
preventive spray schedule. 
Repeat applications at 7 to 14-
day intervals. When disease is 
high, use the higher rate and 
shorter interval. For optimum 
control of foliar diseases, a 
surfactant must be tank-mixed 
with F9651-2. 
 
To discourage development of 
resistant strains of 
pathogens, applications of 
different FRAC group 
fungicide must be made prior to 
and following applications of 
F9651-2. 
Restrictions: 
• Not registered for use in California. 
• Maximum 3 applications of soil and/or foliar sprays per year. 
• Do not apply more than 19.8 fl. oz. of product/A per year. 
• Do not apply more than 0.81 lb. a.i. of tebuconazole/A per ye ar from all tebuconazole containing 
products. 
• Do not apply more than 0.207 lb. a.i. of bixafen/A per year f rom all bixafen containing products. 
• Restricted-entry interval (REI) = 12 hours. 
• F9651-2 may be applied up to 14 days before harvest. 
• Do not feed hay or threshings or allow livestock to graze in treated areas.
