Product Information
This labeling must be in the possession of the user 
at the time of fungicide application. Carefully read, 
understand, and follow all directions and precautions.
DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation 
system unless the label instructions on chemigation are 
followed. Refer to the Chemigation Use Directions for 
additional instructions.
Use Forum
® fungicide in a preventive spray program to 
manage the target diseases. Maximum results can only be 
achieved by thorough plant coverage. Forum must be 
used in accordance with this label. It is recommended that 
this product be used within an Integrated Pest 
 Management (IPM) Program.
Fungus strains have developed resistance to some fungi-
cides after repeated use. Because the development of 
resistance cannot be predicted, always use Forum in a 
resistance management program. Tank mixing and 
 thorough spray coverage are methods that can help to 
minimize the development of fungus strains with resistance 
to Forum. Tank mixing requirements for Forum vary 
depending on the crop. To maximize disease control, 
apply Forum in a regularly scheduled protective spray pro-
gram and use in a rotation program with other fungicides.
DO NOT use Forum in greenhouse or transplant 
 production.
The use of Forum in all tobacco transplant production 
systems (including greenhouse, float-beds, and traditional 
ground beds) is strictly prohibited .
DO NOT use Forum in transplant water.
Disease pressure, plant growth rate, and environmental 
conditions will determine the length of the spray interval 
and performance benefits of tank mixing Forum with other 
fungicides. Consult local disease forecast advisory system 
recommendations to determine the predicted disease 
pressure and the associated application rates and inter-
vals. All aerial and ground application equipment must be 
properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carri-
ers. Determine the size of the area to be sprayed and the 
output rate to determine the quantities of Forum and 
water needed for accurate application. Apply material with

44
adequate spray pressure, water volume, and proper nozzle 
arrangement to provide full coverage.
Mode of Action
Dimethomorph, the active ingredient of Forum® 
 fungicide, belongs to the group of cell wall synthesis 
inhibitors, classified by the USEPA and Canada PMRA as 
target site of action Group 40 fungicides.
Resistance Management
 Forum contains dimethomorph, a Group 40 fungicide, 
and is effective against pathogens resistant to fungicides 
with modes of action different from Group 40. Fungal iso-
lates resistant to Group 40 fungicides may eventually 
dominate the fungal population if Group 40 fungicides are 
used predominantly and repeatedly in the same field in 
successive years as the primary method of control for the 
targeted pathogen species. This may result in reduction of 
disease control by Forum or other Group 40 fungicides.
To maintain the performance of Forum in the field, 
DO NOT exceed the total number of sequential applica-
tions of Forum and the total number of applications of 
 Forum per season stated in the Application Directions 
section. Adhere to the label instructions regarding the con-
secutive use of Forum or other target site of action 
Group 40 fungicides that have a similar site of action on 
the same pathogens.
Resistance Management Advisory
The following instructions can delay the development of 
fungicide resistance:
1. Tank mixtures - Use tank mixtures with fungicides 
from different target site of action groups that are 
 registered/permitted for the same use and that are 
effective against the pathogens of concern. Use at least 
the minimum labeled rates of each fungicide in the tank 
mix.
2. IPM - Integrate Forum into an overall disease and pest 
management program. Follow cultural practices known 
to reduce disease development. Consult your local 
extension specialist, certified crop advisor and/or BASF 
representative for additional IPM strategies established 
for your area. Forum may be used in Agricultural 
 Extension advisory (disease forecasting) programs, 
which recommend application timing based on environ-
mental factors favorable for disease development.
3. Monitoring - Monitor efficacy of all fungicides used in 
the disease management program against the targeted 
pathogen and record other factors that may influence 
fungicide performance and/or disease development. If a 
Group 40 target site fungicide, such as Forum, 
appears to be less effective against a pathogen that it 
previously controlled or suppressed, contact a BASF 
representative, local extension specialist, or certified 
crop advisor for further investigation.
Additives and Tank Mixing Information
 Forum can be tank mixed with most recommended fungi-
cides, insecticides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biological 
control products, adjuvants, and additives, as specified in 
the crop-specific instructions in the Application 
 Directions section of this label.
EXCEPTIONS: Cucurbit Vegetables, Fruiting 
 Vegetables (Except Tomato), and Tobacco. Forum 
must be applied as a tank mix with a fungicide that 
has a different mode of action (non-Group 40 
 fungicide) and is effective against the pathogen of 
concern.
Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations 
and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank 
mixing. Always follow the most restrictive label use direc-
tions. Refer to crop-specific instructions for tank mixing 
details.
Under some conditions, the use of additives or adjuvants 
may improve the performance of Forum; however, all vari-
eties and cultivars have not been tested with all possible 
tank mix combinations. Local conditions can also influence 
crop tolerance and may not match those under which 
BASF has conducted testing.
Physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop 
injury may result from mixing Forum with other products. 
Therefore, before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecti-
cides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biological control 
products, adjuvants, and additives), test the combination 
on a small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that 
a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of 
 application.
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 pesticides if the jar test with Forum 
has indicated incompatibility.
Mixing Instructions
Fill the spray tank until it is approximately 1/2 full with clean 
water. Shake the Forum container well; then slowly add 
 Forum to the spray tank while agitating. Agitation must be 
engaged prior to the addition of the product to obtain a 
complete and uniform mixture of Forum.
Limit amount of spray mixture prepared to that needed for 
immediate use.

55
Mixing Order
Maintain maximum constant agitation during application. 
Thorough agitation is required if the mixture is allowed to 
stand for a prolonged period of time.
1. Water - Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer 
tank 1/2 full of clean water.
2. Products in PVA bags - Place the water-soluble PVA 
bag into the mixing tank. The water-soluble PVA bag will 
dissolve in water to allow the contents to disperse. Wait 
until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and 
the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before 
continuing.
3. Water-dispersible products (wettable powders, dry 
flowables, suspension concentrates, including Forum
® 
 fungicide, or suspo-emulsions)
4. Water-soluble products
5. Emulsifiable concentrates (oil concentrate or 
 methylated seed oil, when applicable)
6. Water-soluble additives [ammonium sulfate (AMS) or 
urea ammonium nitrate (UAN), when applicable]
7. Remaining quantity water.
Aerial Application
Aerial application is permitted for all labeled crops 
except hops and ginseng. Because complete coverage 
is important for effective disease control, aerial application 
at low volumes may result in reduced control because of 
lack of canopy penetration and coverage. Prior to aerial 
application, check the aircraft for uniformity of spray pat-
tern, spray swath width, and output. If hollow cone or 
whirlplate nozzles are used, it is recommended that they 
be positioned straight down or slightly backward. When 
using nozzles that produce relatively straight streams (e.g. 
D-series orifice with no core), the recommended position-
ing is straight back or slightly down from back. Uniformly 
apply with properly calibrated aerial equipment in 5 or 
more gallons of water per acre (15 or more gallons of water 
per acre for tobacco). If foliage is dense, use an output that 
will ensure optimum fungicide penetration. Spray swaths 
should be marked using flaggers who are in completely 
enclosed vehicles, by counting rows, or by using some 
other marking device. DO NOT apply when weather con-
ditions favor drift.
Chemigation Use Directions
 Forum can be applied prior to the onset of disease infec-
tion on a regular protectant spray schedule, not an 
irrigation schedule.
Chemigation applications must be made according to the 
crop-specific spray schedule interval in the Application 
Directions section of this label and may depend on dis-
ease pressure and environmental conditions. Consult local 
disease control advisory system recommendations to 
determine the predicted disease pressure and the associ-
ated application rates and intervals. Chemigation 
applications may need to be supplemented with ground or 
aerial applications if irrigation cycles are less frequent than 
what is specified on the label to obtain optimum control.
Apply Forum only through sprinkler irrigation systems 
including center pivot, lateral move, side (wheel) roll, solid 
set, or hand move irrigation systems. DO NOT apply prod-
uct through any other type of irrigation system.
Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide resi-
dues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of 
treated water.
If you have questions about calibration, contact State 
Extension Service Specialists, equipment manufacturers, 
or other experts.
The irrigation system must be correctly calibrated (with water 
only) to ensure that the specified rate of Forum is applied.
DO NOT connect an irrigation system used for pesticide 
application to a public water system unless the pesticide 
label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems 
are in place. Public water system means a system for the 
provision to the public of piped water for human consump-
tion 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.
Chemigation systems connected to public water systems 
must contain a functional reduced-pressure zone (RPZ) 
backflow preventer, 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 should be discharged into a reservoir 
tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a com-
plete 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.
A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and 
responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of 
the responsible person, shall shut the system down and 
make necessary adjustments should the need arise. The 
system should have properly working nozzles providing the 
recommended output and pattern. The chemigation sys-
tem should also be free of leaks.
Overhead Sprinkler Irrigation System Requirements:
1. The system must contain a functional check valve, vacu-
um relief valve, and low-pressure drain appropriately 
located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source 
contamination from back flow.
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function-
al, automatic quick-closing check valve to prevent the 
flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a func-
tional, normally closed solenoid-operated valve located 
on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to 
the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn 
from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either 
automatically or manually shut down.
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls 
to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump 
when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where

66
there is no water pump, when the water pressure 
decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is 
adversely affected.
5. The irrigation line or water pump must include a func-
tional pressure switch that will stop the water pump 
motor when the water pressure decreases to the point 
that pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
6. 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 fit-
ted with a system interlock.
7. DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the 
area intended for treatment.
The following routine checks will help to ensure that 
the sprinkler irrigation system is working properly:
1. Use a calibrated injection metering pump, as specified 
by the manufacturer.
2. Metering pumps, the supply tank, and any associated 
equipment must be clean and dry before adding diluted 
 Forum
® fungicide to the system for injection.
3. Check the metering pump periodically to confirm that 
 Forum is being injected continuously and at the proper 
calibration throughout the irrigation period.
4. Continuous agitation must be maintained in the supply 
tank during the entire overhead sprinkler irrigation period.
Center Pivot and Lateral Move Irrigation Equipment
(use only with electric or oil hydraulic drive systems that 
provide a uniform water distribution)
1. Determine size of area to be treated.
2. Determine the time required to apply the least amount of 
water. No more than 0.5 inch of water should be applied 
over the area to be treated when the system and injection 
equipment are operated at normal pressures recom-
mended by the equipment manufacturer’s rated capacity.
3. Using only water, determine the injection pump output 
when operated at normal line pressure.
4. Determine the amount of Forum required to treat area.
5. Add the required amount of Forum and sufficient water 
to meet the injection time requirements of the solution 
tank.
6. Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the 
injection period.
7. Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. 
Continue to operate the system until Forum solution has 
cleared the last sprinkler head.
Solid Set, Side (wheel) Roll, and Hand Move 
 Irrigation Equipment
1. Determine acreage covered by sprinkler.
2. Fill injector solution tank with water and adjust flow rate 
to use contents over a 10- to 30-minute interval.
3. Determine the amount of Forum required to treat the 
area.
4. Add the required amount of Forum into the same quan-
tity of water used to calibrate the injection equipment.
5. Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the 
injection period.
6. Operate system at normal pressures recommended by 
the manufacturer of the injection equipment and use for 
the time interval established during calibration.
7. Inject Forum at the end of the irrigation cycle, or as a 
separate application, to maximize foliar fungicide 
 retention.
8. Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. 
Continue to operate the system until Forum solution 
has cleared the last sprinkler head.
Spray Drift Advisories
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibili-
ty of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment- 
related and weather-related factors determines the potential 
for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering 
all these factors when making decisions. Where states have 
more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
The applicator is also responsible for avoiding off-site 
spray drift. Be aware of nearby non-target sites and envi-
ronmental conditions. 
Importance of Droplet Size
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large 
droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest 
control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray 
drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are 
made improperly or under unfavorable environmental 
conditions.
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 recommend-
ed 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.
Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft 
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recom-
mendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce 
fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the 
airflow in flight.
Boom Height - Ground Boom 
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with 
the crop and have minimal bounce.
Release Height - Aircraft 
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. 
When applying aerially to crops, do not release spray at a 
height greater than 10 ft. above the crop canopy, unless a 
greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.

77
Shielded Sprayers
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.
Temperature and Humidity
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use 
larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
Temperature Inversions
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Tem-
perature 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 applica-
tions during temperature inversions.
Wind
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID 
APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDI-
TIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind 
patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.

88
Application Directions
Maximum benefit of Forum® fungicide from foliar applications requires thorough coverage of the plant. To obtain 
 thorough coverage of foliage, use proper spray pressure and a minimum of 20 gallons of water per acre for ground appli-
cations and 5 gallons of water per acre for aerial applications (15 or more gallons of water per acre for aerial applications 
to tobacco). Because complete coverage is important for effective disease control, aerial application may result in 
reduced control because of lack of canopy penetration and coverage.
Restrictions
• DO NOT exceed 30 fl ozs per acre per year.
• DO NOT use less than 20 gallons of water per acre for ground applications and 5 gallons of water per acre for aerial 
applications.
• DO NOT use less than 15 gallons of water per acre for aerial applications to tobacco.
• DO NOT make aerial applications to ginseng or hops.

Application Directions. Use Forum as a preventive application before infection occurs.
The minimum application interval for Forum is 7 days.
When disease is present in or near the area, prediction models indicate favorable disease conditions; or when an epi-
demic is underway, performance may be improved by using Forum as a tank mix with another fungicide.

Directions For Use in Field-Grown Tobacco
Acceptable control of blue mold and management of fungicide resistance with Forum® fungicide requires thorough 
coverage to leaf surfaces throughout the entire plant canopy.
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated before application.
Application Timing and Frequency in Tobacco
 Forum must be applied as a tank mix with another fungicide that has a different mode of action (non-
Group 40 fungicide) and is effective against the pathogen of concern. Begin applications when the Blue Mold 
Advisory states that conditions favor development of blue mold , and before the onset of disease infection. Con-
tinue applications on a 5- to 7-day spray schedule until weather conditions favoring infection and sporulation decrease.
Tank Mixes with Other Products
The crop safety and tank mix compatibility of tank mixes of Forum with insecticides have not been fully investigated. 
Refer to the Additives and Tank Mixing Information section for additional details and precautions.
DO NOT mix Forum with surfactants, foliar fertilizers, household bleach, or sucker-control materials when making appli-
cations to tobacco.
Tractor-Driven Sprayer Applications to Tobacco
To obtain thorough coverage of the foliage, use proper spray pressure, fungicide nozzles (such as hollow cones), proper 
nozzle spacing (nozzles over the row and multiple nozzles on the drops, see diagram following), and slow tractor 
speed. The following diagram outlines the correct spray nozzle configuration for field applications in tobacco. See 
Ground Application Rates for Tobacco table.

Backpack Sprayer Applications to Tobacco
 Forum® fungicide can be applied with backpack mist blowers or air-blast blowers. DO NOT apply with hand-pumped 
backpack sprayers because of low pressure and poor plant coverage. Spray to foliar runoff. Thorough plant coverage is 
essential for preventive control of blue mold. See Ground Application Rates for Tobacco table.

Aerial Spray Applications to Tobacco
Aerial applications can be used by growers who have limitations with ground applications, or when weather conditions 
are unfavorable for timely applications by ground. 
Determine the area to be sprayed and the output rate to determine the quantities of Forum and water needed for accu-
rate application. To obtain thorough coverage of the foliage, use nozzle positioning and orientation that favors plant 
coverage while minimizing drift. DO NOT use less than 15 gallons of water per acre.
For aerial applications, use 8 fl ozs of Forum per acre for applications at all growth stages. DO NOT use rates lower 
than 8 fl ozs of Forum per acre for aerial application.
Tobacco Use Restrictions
• DO NOT exceed 8 fl ozs per acre per application. 
• DO NOT make more than 2 sequential applications of Forum before alternating to another fungicide with a mode of 
action different from Forum (non-Group 40 fungicides) for at least 1 application.
• DO NOT use Forum in tobacco transplant production systems (including greenhouse, float-beds, and tra-
ditional ground beds) .
• DO NOT use Forum in transplant water.
 Forum preharvest interval is 0 days. Tobacco may be harvested the day of the last application, after sprays have 
dried. Refer to tank mix partner labeling for preharvest interval restrictions.
To reduce the possibility of developing tobacco blue mold resistance to both Forum and to mefenoxam 
products, the tank mixing of Forum with mefenoxam products is strictly prohibited.
Blue mold fungal strains have developed resistance to some crop protection products after repeated use. Because the 
development of resistance cannot be predicted, always use Forum in a blue mold resistance management program. 
Tank mixing with non-Group 40 fungicides and thorough spray coverage are necessary to minimize the development of 
blue mold strains with resistance to Forum.
