Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, Triticale:
To provide early season protection of seedlings against injury by aphids (including Bird cherry-
oat, English grain, Greenbug, and Russian wheat aphid), Hessian fly, apply 0.8 to 2.4 fluid
ounces per hundredweight of seed prior to planting as a slurry treatment.  Low use rate for
“wireworm-only” protection: GAUCHO 600 applied at the 0.13 - 0.26 fl oz per hundredweight
of seed offers suppression of wireworm activity on seed and young seedlings.  To provide
early season protection from grasshopper damage, GAUCHO 600 should be applied to seed
at 1.2 to 2.4 fluid ounces per hundredweight.  To reduce early season damage caused by
grasshopper, GAUCHO treated seed may be planted as a 50 to 60 foot border around the
edges of the field.  Consult your local university extension entomologist for details regarding
grasshopper control in your area.  For maximum effectiveness, seed must be treated uniformly.
Use the higher rate to provide increased length of protection and from heavy insect pressure
and from wireworms, and to reduce potential spread of Barley yellow dwarf virus due to aphid
vectors.  Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas for 45 days after planting.
Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, Triticale: For End-Use Application At Agricultural Establishments:
Apply using a Total Slurry Treater (TST), Farmer Applied Seed Treater (F .A.S.T.), Bayer
CropScience Air Pressure System (BCSAP) or other on-farm seed treating equipment to
deliver accurate rates of GAUCHO 600 Flowable to achieve optimum product performance.

Apply 0.8 – 2.4 fl oz per hundredweight of seed. GAUCHO 600 Flowable should be
combined with a Bayer CropScience fungicide product for seed and seedling protection
against fungal pathogens, as well as insect pests.  Dilution with water may be necessary
depending on fungicide formulation used.  GAUCHO 600 Flowable may also be applied
on-farm as an over-treatment to seed pretreated with a fungicide.  In this case, dilution
is necessary.  Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas for 45 days after planting.
Sorghum, Millet:
To provide early season protection of seedlings against injury by Aphids (including Corn
leaf, English grain, Greenbug, and Y ellow sugar cane aphid), Chinch bugs, Fire ants and
Wireworms, apply 6.4 fluid ounces per hundredweight of seed prior to planting as a slurry
treatment.  Ensure thorough coverage.  Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas
for 45 days after planting.
Sorghum, Millet: For End-Use Application At Agricultural Establishments:
Apply using an HCBT or an Eight-Bag Batch Treater. Shake GAUCHO 600 Flowable
thoroughly before use.  Dilute 3.2 fluid ounces of GAUCHO 600 Flowable with water.  The
final slurry rate must be adjusted to apply a rate of 8 - 10 fluid ounces of diluted slurry
per 50-pound bag of seed.  Treat one-half of seed with one-half of slurry mix.  Add the
balance of the seed and apply balance of slurry.  Allow mixing until seed is thoroughly
covered.  Apply 0.75 oz of dry TALC per 50-pound bag of seed following the GAUCHO 600

Flowable application and allow it to distribute evenly on the seed.  Do not graze or feed
livestock on treated areas for 45 days after planting.
Cotton (Delinted Seed Only):
To provide protection of seedlings against injury by early season thrips and aphids, and
where the specific application rate is desired on an individual seed basis apply at 0.375mg
ai per seed (do not apply more than 12.8 fluid ounces per hundredweight of seed) prior
to planting as a slurry treatment so as to ensure thorough coverage.  Otherwise, apply at
12.8 fluid ounces per hundredweight of seed.  Regardless of the type of application (seed

treatment, soil or foliar) do not apply more than a total of 0.5 lb of imidacloprid per acre
per cropping cycle.
Cotton (Delinted Seed Only): For End-Use Application At Agricultural
Establishments:
Apply using an HCBT or an Eight-Bag Batch Treater.  Shake GAUCHO 600
Flowable thoroughly before use.  Dilute 6.4 fluid ounces of GAUCHO 600 Flowable
with water or a ready to use fungicide mixture, such as RTU
®-VITAVAX®-Thiram or
ALLEGIANCE®-FL, for each 50-pound bag of cottonseed to be treated.  The final
slurry rate must be adjusted to apply a rate of 8 to 10 fluid ounces of diluted slurry
per 50-pound bag of seed.  Treat one-half of seed with one-half of slurry mix.  Add
the balance of the seed and apply balance of slurry.  Allow mixing until seed is
thoroughly covered.
