GENERAL: Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the
applicator. The interaction of many equipment- and weather- related factors determines
the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower/treatment coordinator are
responsible for considering all of these factors when making decisions. Where states
have more stringent regulations, they should be observed.
GROUND: Be sure to maintain agitation during mixing and application to assure uniform
product suspension. Serenade Soil DPZ can be applied in commonly used ground
equipment, hose-end, pressurized, greenhouse and hand-held sprayers. To achieve
good coverage, use proper spray pressure, gallonage per acre, nozzles, nozzle spacing
and ground speed. Consult spray nozzle and accessory catalogues for specific
information on proper equipment calibration.
AERIAL: This product can be applied by aerial application. Refer to the Aerial Drift
Reduction Advisory Information section of this label for general directions and
precautions. Use the application rate indicated for the appropriate crop in sufficient
water to achieve thorough coverage, typically between 3-20 gallons of water per acre
depending upon the crop. Three gallons of water per acre is the minimum.
CHEMIGATION: This product can be applied through sprinkler (center pivot, lateral
move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, solid set, and hand move) or drip type
irrigation systems. Refer to the Chemigation Directions for Use section of this label for
general directions and precautions. Use the application rate indicated for the
appropriate crop as specified in the Application Rate tables of this label.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
MIXING: Serenade Soil DPZ must be diluted with water. Partially fill the spray tank
with clean water and begin agitation. Add the specified amount of Serenade Soil DPZ
to the tank. Finish filling the tank to the necessary volume to obtain the proper spray
concentration. It is critical that the spray solution be agitated during mixing and
application to assure a uniform suspension. Do not allow spray mixture to stand
overnight or for prolonged periods. [Optional Statement: Maintain a spray solution pH
between 4.5 and 8.5.]
Serenade Soil DPZ may be tank mixed with other registered pesticides to enhance plant
disease control. This product cannot be mixed with any product with a prohibition
against such mixing. When tank mixing Serenade Soil DPZ with other registered
pesticides, always read and follow all use directions, restrictions, and precautions of
both Serenade Soil DPZ and the tank-mix partner(s). Use of the resulting tank mix must
be in accordance with the more restrictive label limitations and precautions. Do not
exceed label dosage rates.
COMPATIBILITY: Do not combine Serenade Soil DPZ in the spray tank with pesticides,
surfactants or fertilizers if there has been no previous experience or use of the
combination to show it is physically compatible, effective and non-injurious under your
7 of 60

use conditions.
Serenade Soil DPZ is compatible with many commonly used pesticides, fertilizers,
adjuvants and surfactants but has not been fully evaluated with all of these. To ensure
compatibility of tank-mix combinations, evaluate them prior to use as follows: Using a
suitable container, add proportional amounts of product to water. Add wettable powders
first, followed by water dispersible granules, then by liquid flowables and lastly,
emulsifiable concentrates. Mix thoroughly and let stand for at least five minutes. If the
combination stays mixed or can be remixed, it is physically compatible. 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. [OPTIONAL STATEMENT: Do not use
with penetrant-type adjuvants.]
CHEMIGATION DIRECTIONS FOR USE
General Requirements:
1) Apply this product only through sprinkler (including center pivot, lateral move, end
tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, solid set or hand move) or drip type irrigation
systems. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.
2) Crop injury or lack of effectiveness can result from non-uniform distribution of treated
water.
3) Ensure that the irrigation system used is properly calibrated and if you have
questions, call the State Extension Service specialists, the equipment manufacturer
or other experts.
4) Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for
pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed
safety devices for public water systems are in place.
5) 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 any necessary adjustments should the need arise.
Requirements for Chemigation Systems Connected to Public Water Systems:
1) Public water supply 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 25 individuals daily at least 60 days throughout the year.
2) Chemigation systems connected to the public water systems must contain a
functional, reduced-pressure zone (RPZ), backflow preventer or the functional
equivalent in the water supply 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 complete
physical break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top of the
overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
3) The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing
check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back towards the injection pump.
4) The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-
operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the
8 of 60

system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the
irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
5) 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 there
is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where 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 fitted with a system interlock.
7) Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
8) Remove scale, pesticide residues, and other foreign matter from the chemical supply
tank and entire injector system. Flush with clean water. Failure to provide a clean
tank, void of scale or residues may cause product to lose effectiveness or strength.
9) Do not combine Serenade Soil DPZ with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers for
application through chemigation equipment unless prior experience has shown the
combination physically compatible, effective and non-injurious under conditions of
use. Serenade Soil DPZ has not been fully evaluated for compatibility with all
adjuvants or surfactants. Conduct a spray compatibility test if mixture with adjuvants
or surfactants is planned.
10)Maintain agitation in the pesticide supply tank.

AERIAL DRIFT REDUCTION ADVISORY INFORMATION - For Pre-plant Uses Only
BASIC: Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator.
The interaction of many equipment- and weather- related factors determines the
potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering
all these factors when making decisions. Where states have more stringent regulations,
they should be observed.
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).
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE: Volume'- Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the
highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets.
Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended pressures. For
many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When high flow rates are
needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. Number of
Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage. Nozzle
11 of 60

Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the airstream
produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice.
Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential.
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended 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 WIDTH: For aerial applications, the boom width must not exceed 75% of the
wingspan or 90% of the rotary blade. If application includes a no-spray zone, do not
release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the ground.
APPLICATION HEIGHT: Do not make application at a height greater than 10 feet
above the soil 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: Use upwind'swath displacement. When applications are made
with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downward. 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 should increase,
with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.).
WIND: Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 3 - 10 mph. However, many
factors, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given
speed. Application should be avoided below 3 mph due to variable wind direction and
high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
applicator should 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: Do not apply 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.
SENSITIVE AREAS: The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to
adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for
12 of 60

threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is
blowing away from the sensitive areas). Do not allow spray to drift from the application
site and contact people, structures people occupy at any time and the associated
property, parks and recreation areas, non-target crops, aquatic and wetland areas,
woodlands, pastures, rangelands, or animals.

Serenade Soil DPZ has a 0-Day PreHarvest Interval for all crops contained on this
label. The restricted-entry interval (REI) .for soil-injected or soil-incorporated
applications is 4 hours. For other application types the (REI) is four hours.
Under moderate to severe disease pressure, for improved performance, increase rates
and reduce spray intervals as stated or use Serenade Soil DPZ in a tank-mix or
rotational program with other registered fungicides.
Serenade Soil DPZ is a broad spectrum biofungicide for the prevention, suppression
and control of soil borne diseases on a wide range of fruits and vegetables as well as
cotton. Serenade Soil DPZ enhances germination and plant growth by suppressing soil
diseases such as those caused by Rhizoctonia, Pythium, Fusarium, Verticillium and
Phytophthora. See the application tables for specific information.
Moving Serenade Soil DPZ into the Root or Seed Zone:
To ensure maximum activity on soilborne pathogens, Serenade Soil DPZ must be
moved into the seed or root zone of the plant. Follow the required crop directions.
Placement in the seed or root zone includes in-furrow sprays, soil injections, crown dips.
Incorporation includes pre-plant incorporated applications, soil drenches, or shank
applications. For soil surface sprays, rainfall will move the fungicide into the seed or
root zone, but if rain is not expected within 24 hours after application, mechanically
incorporate (before planting) or sprinkler irrigate (after planting) with % to 1 inch of
water.
All Soil Surface (Drench). Shanked-ln. Injected and In-Furrow Applications:
Mix 1 qt [(32 fl oz)] to 6 qt [(192 fl oz)] of Serenade Soil DPZ in the appropriate amount
of water per acre. Use the stated higher rates when the weather conditions are
expected to be conducive for disease development, if the field has a history of disease
problems, or if minimum/low till programs are in place. Serenade .Soil DPZ can be
mixed with chemical fungicides registered for soil applications.
Ground Applications (Broadcast): Apply in a minimum of 20 gallons per water per
acre, unless specified otherwise.
Ground Application (Banded): Application rates in the Directions for Use are
generally expressed as an amount per acre which refers to the total crop area to be
treated. If using a banded application, use proportionally less product using the formula

Soil Surface (Drench) Application at Any Stage of Growth: Apply the finished spray
mixture to the surface of the soil as a drench or directed spray using hand-held,
mechanical or motorized spray equipment, or as a chemigation drench or directed spray
using applicable sprinkler or drip irrigation systems. When applying as a spray (e.g. via
hydraulic nozzles at low volumes) it is important to irrigate to move the material into the
seed, root or transplant zone. Normal operation of overhead sprinklers and drip
irrigation systems are sufficient for effective applications. Optimal performance is
obtained with preventative treatments repeated every 21 to 28 days throughout the
growing cycle.

All Soil Surface (Drench). Shanked-ln, Injected
and In-Furrow Applications:
Mix 1 qt [(32 fl oz)] to 6 qt [(192 fl oz)] of Serenade
Soil DPZ in the appropriate amount of water per
acre. Use the stated higher application rates when
the weather conditions are expected to be
conducive to disease development, if the field has a
history of disease problems, or if minimum/low till
programs are in place. Serenade Soil DPZ can be
mixed with chemical fungicides registered for soil
applications.
Soil Surface (Drench) Application At Planting:
Use at planting, seeding or transplant. Apply
finished spray mixture at a rate to thoroughly soak
the growing media through the root zone as a
drench or directed spray using hand-held,
mechanical or motorized spray equipment, or as a
chemigation drench or directed spray using
applicable sprinkler or drip irrigation systems.
Shanked-ln and Injected Applications:
Serenade Soil DPZ can be shanked-in or injected
into the soil prior to-, at-, or post-
planting/transplan'ting of crops alone or with most
types of liquid nutrients.
In-Furrow Applications:
For in-furrow applications, apply Serenade Soil DPZ
as an in-furrow spray in the appropriate amount of
water per acre for the crop at planting. Mount the
spray nozzle so the spray is directed in the furrow
just before the seeds are covered.
Soil Surface (Drench) Application At Any Stage
of Growth:
Apply the finished spray mixture to the surface of
the soil as a drench or directed spray using hand-
held, mechanical or motorized spray equipment, or
as a chemigation drench or directed spray using

Application Instructions Greenhouse Soil
Surface (Drench)
All Soil Surface (Drench) Applications:
Mix 1 qt [(32 fl oz)] to 6 qt [(192 fl oz)] of Serenade
Soil DPZ per 100 gallons of spray mix. For each
treatment, apply no more than 6 qt of Serenade Soil
DPZ per acre; equivalent to 4.4 fl oz of Serenade
Soil DPZ per 1000 ft2 [sq ft]. Serenade Soil DPZ can
be mixed with chemical fungicides registered for soil
applications.
Soil Surface (Drench) Application At Planting:
Use at planting, seeding or transplant. Apply
finished spray mixture at a rate to thoroughly soak
the growing media through the root zone as a
drench or directed spray using hand-held,
mechanical or motorized spray equipment, or as a
chemigatton drench or directed spray using
applicable sprinkler or drip irrigation systems.
Soil Surface (Drench) Application At Any Stage
of Growth:
Apply the finished spray mixture to the surface of the
soil as a drench or directed spray using hand-held,
mechanical or motorized spray equipment, or as a
chemigation drench or directed spray using
applicable sprinkler or drip irrigation systems. When
applying as a spray (e.g. via hydraulic nozzles at low
volumes) it is important to irrigate to move the
material into the seed, root or transplant zone.
Normal operation of overhead sprinklers and drip
irrigation systems are sufficient for effective
applications. Optimal performance is obtained with
preventative treatments repeated every 21 to 28
days throughout the growing cycle.
