Dear Becca Haynie:
|
||
|
||
The amended label referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under the Federal
|
||
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, is acceptable. This approval
|
||
does not affect any conditions that were previously imposed on this registration. You continue to
|
||
be subject to existing conditions on your registration and any deadlines connected with them.
|
||
|
||
A stamped copy of your labeling is attached for your records. This labeling supersedes all
|
||
previously accepted labeling. You must submit one copy of the final printed labeling before you
|
||
release the product for shipment with the new labeling. In accordance with 40 CFR 152.130(c),
|
||
you may distribute or sell this product under the previously approved labeling for 18 months
|
||
from the date of this letter. After 18 months, you may only distribute or sell this product if it
|
||
bears this new revised labeling or subsequently approved labeling. “To distribute or sell” is
|
||
defined under FIFRA section 2(gg) and its implementing regulation at 40 CFR 152.3.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then please be
|
||
aware that the website becomes labeling under FIFRA and is subject to review by the Agency. If
|
||
the website is false or misleading, the product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or
|
||
distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements
|
||
EPA may consider false or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced
|
||
on your product’s label, claims made on the website may not substantially differ from those
|
||
claims approved through the registration process. Therefore, should the Agency find or if it is
|
||
brought to our attention that a website contains false or misleading statements or claims
|
||
substantially differing from the EPA approved registration, the website will be referred to the
|
||
EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance.
|
||
|
||
Your release for shipment of the product constitutes acceptance of these conditions. If these
|
||
conditions are not complied with, the registration will be subject to cancellation in accordance

3.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator is a selective, non-pesticidal systemic compound used for the
|
||
control of several listed fungal, bacterial, and viral plant diseases. Actigard 50WG Plant
|
||
Activator is an inducer of host plant resistance. Actigard 50WG Plant Activator exhibits a
|
||
unique mode of action which mimics the natural systemic activated resistance (SAR)
|
||
response found in most plant species. Actigard 50WG Plant Activator has no direct activity
|
||
against target pathogens.
|
||
For best performance, Actigard 50WG Plant Activator needs to be applied preventively,
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator
|
||
Page 7
|
||
|
||
before disease is observed. An Actigard 50WG Plant Activator application mimics the SAR
|
||
response in plants. Maximum disease protection is normally obtained 4 days after an
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator application.
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator moves systemically within the plant; however; when making
|
||
foliar applications, uniform spray coverage is essential for best performance. Make no more
|
||
spray solution than is needed for application. Avoid spray overlap, as crop injury may occur.
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator provides protection against certain diseases in the crops listed
|
||
on this label. Actigard 50WG Plant Activator provides sufficient protection to reduce disease
|
||
levels but needs to be tank mixed with other registered products with curative activity if
|
||
disease is present at the time of application, to ensure adequate disease control as well as to
|
||
broaden the spectrum of disease control.
|
||
|
||
|
||
3.1 Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator should be integrated into an overall disease and pest
|
||
management strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Cultural practices known
|
||
to reduce disease development should be followed. The Crop Use Directions (Section 7.0)
|
||
in this label identifies specific IPM recommendations for each crop. Consult your local
|
||
agricultural authorities for additional IPM strategies established for your area. Actigard 50WG
|
||
Plant Activator may be used in State Agricultural Extension advisory (disease forecasting)
|
||
programs which recommend application timing based on environmental factors favorable for
|
||
disease development.
|
||
|
||
3.2 Resistance Management
|
||
ACIBENZOLAR-S-METHYL GROUP P01 FUNGICIDE
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, Actigard 50WG Plant Activator contains a Group P01 fungicide.
|
||
Any fungal populations may contain individuals naturally resistant to Actigard 50WG Plant
|
||
Activator and other Group P01 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.
|
||
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
Rotate the use of Actigard 50W G Plant Activator or other Group P01 fungicides within
|
||
a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens.
|
||
Use tank mixtures with fungicides 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.
|
||
Adopt an integrated disease m anagement 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
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator
|
||
Page 8
|
||
|
||
development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical
|
||
control practices.
|
||
Where possible, make use of pre dictive disease models to effectively time fungicide
|
||
applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage
|
||
resistance.
|
||
Monitor treated fungal populati ons for resistance development.
|
||
Contact your local extension spec ialist or certified crop advisor for any additional
|
||
pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and
|
||
pathogens.
|
||
For further information or to r eport 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.
|
||
|
||
4.0 APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
|
||
4.1 Methods of Application
|
||
Apply Actigard 50WG Plant Activator at rates specified in Section 7.0. Where permitted,
|
||
applications can be made by ground, by air, and via chemigation as specified in Section 7.0.
|
||
Refer to Section 4.5 for details of application by chemigation.
|
||
4.1.1 Ground Application
|
||
Apply in a minimum of 10 gal/A , unless specified otherwise.
|
||
Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control.
|
||
|
||
4.1.2 Aerial Application
|
||
Use only on crops where aerial applications are indicated.
|
||
Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease protection.
|
||
Apply in a minimum of 10 gal/A unless specified otherwise.
|
||
Avoid application under conditi ons when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or
|
||
when excessive spray drift may occur.
|
||
The interaction of many equipm ent and weather related factors determine the potential
|
||
for spray drift.
|
||
The applicator and the grower a re responsible for considering all these factors when
|
||
making decisions.
|
||
|
||
4.2 Application Equipment
|
||
Spray equipment configuration needs to be arranged to provide accurate, uniform and
|
||
thorough coverage of the target crop and minimize potential for spray drift.
|
||
To ensure accuracy, calibrate sprayer before each use.
|
||
For information on spray equipm ent and calibration, consult spray equipment
|
||
manufacturers and/or state specifications.
|
||
All ground/aerial/chem igation application equipment must be properly maintained and
|
||
calibrated using appropriate carriers.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
4.2.1 Nozzles
|
||
Equip sprayers with nozzles t hat provide accurate and uniform application.
|
||
Nozzles need to be the same s ize and uniformly spaced across the boom.
|
||
Calibrate sprayer before use.
|
||
It is suggested that screens be used to protect the pump and t o prevent nozzles from
|
||
clogging.
|
||
Screens placed on sucti on side of pump need to be 16-mesh or coarser.
|
||
DO NOT place a screen in the recirculation line.
|
||
Use 50-mesh or coarser scr eens between the pump and boom, and where required, at
|
||
nozzles.
|
||
Check nozzle manufacturer’s specifications.
|
||
|
||
4.2.2 Pumps
|
||
Use a pump with capacity to:
|
||
o Maintain adequate psi at nozzles
|
||
o Provide sufficient agitation in the tank to keep mixture in suspension – this
|
||
requires recirculation of 10% of tank volume per minute.
|
||
Use a jet agitator or liqui d sparge tube for agitation.
|
||
DO NOT air sparge.
|
||
For more information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer manufacturers’
|
||
and state specifications. For specific local directions and spray schedules, consult the
|
||
current state agricultural specifications.
|
||
4.3 Application Volume and Spray Coverage
|
||
Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control.
|
||
Apply in sufficient water to ensure adequate coverage.
|
||
Avoid application under conditi ons when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or
|
||
when excessive spray drift may occur.
|
||
For ground applications, apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre unless
|
||
specified otherwise.
|
||
For aerial applications, apply in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre unless

|
||
4.4.2 Tank-Mix Precautions
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s res ponsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the
|
||
intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions, limitation and directions for
|
||
use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. User must follow the most restrictive
|
||
directions for use and precautionary statement of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
Tank mixes of Actigard 50WG Plan t Activator with other pesticides, fertilizers, or any
|
||
other additives not specifically labelled for use with Actigard 50WG Plant Activator may
|
||
result in tank mix incompatibility or unsatisfactory performance. In such cases, always
|
||
check tank mix compatibility by conducting a jar test according to guidance in Section
|
||
4.4.3 before actual tank mixing.
|
||
|
||
4.4.3 Tank-Mix Compatibility
|
||
Conduct a jar test using a 1 pt t o 1 qt container with lid by adding water or other
|
||
intended carrier such a liquid fertilizer to the jar.
|
||
Next, add the appropriate amount of pesticides(s) or tank mix partner(s) in their
|
||
relative proportions based on specified label rates. Add tank mix components
|
||
separately in the order described in the tank-mixing section, Section 4.4.4. After each
|
||
addition, shake or stir gently to thoroughly mix.
|
||
After all ingredients have been added, put the lid on the jar, tighten and invert the jar
|
||
10 times to mix.
|
||
After mixing, let the mixture stand 15 – 30 minutes and then examine for signs of
|
||
incompatibility such as obvious separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels or heavy oily
|
||
film on the jar.
|
||
If the mixture remains mixed or can be remixed readily, it is physically compatible and
|
||
can be used.
|
||
If the mixture is incompatible , repeat the test using a compatibility agent at the
|
||
specified rate. Or, if applicable, slurry dry formulations in water before adding to the
|
||
jar. If incompatibility is still observed after following these procedures, do not use the
|
||
mixture.
|
||
After compatibility testing is c omplete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance
|
||
with the storage and disposal section, (Section 8.0) of this label.
|
||
|
||

|
||
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 out of the year.
|
||
|
||
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional,
|
||
reduced-pressure zone, back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the
|
||
water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the
|
||
RPZ, the water from the public water system need to be discharged into a reservoir tank
|
||
prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap) between
|
||
the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least
|
||
twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
|
||
|
||
3. The pesticide injection pipel ine must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check
|
||
valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
|
||
|
||
4. The pesticide injection pipel ine must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-
|
||
operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the

4.5.5 Mechanical Drip System for Transplant Production
|
||
Application of Actigard 50WG Plant Activator into seeded transplant trays:
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator can be applied into individual transplant tray cells
|
||
containing seed using a mechanical drip system (e.g., the PHYTO-DRIP® application
|
||
system) with the appropriate dilution of Actigard 50WG Plant Activator in water or
|
||
water mixed with other products registered to be applied using this method.
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator may be applied to the transplant tray cells before or
|
||
after the seeds are covered with soil media but before the trays are watered.
|
||
The mechanical drip system must be calibrated so that each cell in the tray receives
|
||
the prescribed dose rate of Actigard 50WG Plant Activator. For calibration of the drip
|
||
system, consult with Syngenta or the equipment manufacturer.
|
||
The Actigard 50WG Plant Activat or application solution needs to be applied at an
|
||
application volume of not less than 0.1 mL per cell and not greater than 1 mL per cell.
|
||
The application pressure needs to be low enough to prevent the application solution
|
||
from splashing out of the cell to which it is applied during the application process.

6.0 RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
|
||
6.1 Use Restrictions
|
||
DO NOT apply through any ultra-low volume (ULV) spray system.
|
||
DO NOT apply directly to humans or animals.
|
||
|
||
6.2 Use Precautions
|
||
Avoid spray overlap, as crop injury may occur.
|
||
To avoid spray drift, do not apply when conditions favor drift beyond the target area.
|
||
|
||
6.3 Mandatory Spray Drift Management
|
||
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLI CATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
|
||
APPLICATOR.
|
||
DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond area intended for application.
|
||
The interaction of many equipm ent and weather related factors determine the potential for spray
|
||
drift.
|
||
Conditions which may contribute to drift include thermal inversion, wind speed and direction,
|
||
sprayer nozzle/pressure combinations, spray droplet size, etc.
|
||
Contact your State extension a gent for spray drift prevention guidelines in your area.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: When states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
|
||
|
||
6.3.1 Aerial Applications
|
||
For aerial applications, the release height must be no higher than 10 feet from the top of the crop
|
||
canopy, unless a greater application height is required for pilot safety.
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator
|
||
Page 15
|
||
|
||
The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airplanes or 75% of the rotor blade
|
||
diameter for helicopters.
|
||
Applicators must use ½ swath d isplacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
|
||
DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
6.3.2 Ground Boom Applications
|
||
Apply with the nozzle height r ecommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above
|
||
the ground or crop canopy.
|
||
For all applications, applicators are required to use a medium or coarser spray droplet size
|
||
(ASABE S572.1).
|
||
DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
6.3.3 Airblast Applications
|
||
Direct spray into the canopy.
|
||
Turn off outward pointing nozzl e at row ends and when spraying outer rows.
|
||
Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1) for all
|
||
applications.
|
||
DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||
DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
6.4 Spray Drift Advisories
|
||
6.4.1 Importance of Droplet Size
|
||
An effective way to reduce sp ray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets
|
||
that provide target pest control.
|
||
While applying larger droplet s will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if
|
||
applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions.
|
||
|
||
6.4.2 Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||
Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce
|
||
spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray
|
||
volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
|
||
Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the
|
||
target spray volume and droplet size.
|
||
Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application.
|
||
Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift.
|
||
|
||
6.4.3 Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||
Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations for setting up nozzles.
|
||
Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in
|
||
flight.
|
||
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator
|
||
Page 16
|
||
|
||
|
||
6.4.4 Boom Height – Ground Boom
|
||
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles. Generally, to reduce
|
||
fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
|
||
|
||
6.4.5 Release Height - Aircraft
|
||
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. When applying aerially to crops,
|
||
do not spray at a height greater than 10ft above the crop canopy, unless a greater application
|
||
height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
|
||
6.4.6 Shielded Sprayer
|
||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded
|
||
sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray
|
||
on the target area.
|
||
|
||
6.4.7 Temperature and Humidity
|
||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of
|
||
evaporation.
|
||
|
||
6.4.8 Temperature Inversions
|
||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are
|
||
characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited
|
||
cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground
|
||
fog or 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. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
6.4.9 Wind
|
||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY
|
||
WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that
|
||
could affect spray drift.
|
||
|
||
BOOM-LESS GROUND APPLICATIONS
|
||
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
|
||
HANDHELD TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS
|
||
Take precautions to minimize spray drift.

end of season). See table below in
|
||
For Ground Applications section.
|
||
|
||
If disease is present in the production
|
||
area, another registered product for
|
||
that disease needs to be applied at
|
||
the same timing as the Actigard
|
||
50WG Plant Activator application (can
|

Plant Activator as a foliar spray).
|
||
Banded applications can be made
|
||
early when plants are small (7"
|
||
proportional band) as long as
|
||
coverage is adequate.
|
||
For Ground Applications: Begin season with low water volumes. As plant canopy increases, the Actigard
|
||
50WG Plant Activator rate needs to increase to ensure activity. Use the higher rate over time, even if water
|
||
volume does not increase. If gallonage at any particular application is higher than in this example, increase
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator accordingly, i.e., keep the concentration the same but do not apply an amount
|
||
of water per application delivering more than 0.75 oz product/A. The table below provides guidance on
|
||
increasing the rate through the season (a dilute carrier volume of 100 gal/A is assumed for fully grown tomato
|
||
plants).

Under certain conditions, this product, when used on tomatoes, may lead to reductions in yield. Syngenta
|
||
advises that the user and/or grower test this product in order to determine its suitability for its intended use
|
||
in tomatoes. Syngenta makes this product available to the user and/or grower solely to the extent that the
|
||
benefit and utility, in the sole opinion of the user and/or grower, outweigh the extent of potential reductions
|
||
in yield of tomatoes following use of Actigard 50WG Plant Activator. The decision to use or not use
|
||
Actigard 50WG Plant Activator in tomatoes must be made by each individual user and/or grower on the
