DIRECTIONS THROUGH SPRINKLER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
This product is toxic to aquatic and estuarine invertebrates. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic and estuarine organisms in
neighboring areas. Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high
water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters.
Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.
Remove PRE clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
Use of ALIETTE WDG® Fungicide through chemigation is not allowed in California, except for Citrus.
Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation systems including mini-sprinkler, drip, solid set and center pivot. Do not apply this
product through any other type of irrigation system.
SPRAY PREPARATION: Remove scale, pesticide residues, and other foreign matter from the chemical tank and entire injector
system. Flush with clean water.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: First prepare a suspension of ALIETTE WDG in a mix tank. Fill tank with 1/2 to 3/4 the desired
amount of water. Start mechanical or hydraulic agitation. Add the required amount of ALIETTE WDG, and then the remaining volume
of water. Then set sprinkler to deliver 0.1 to 0.3 inch of water per acre. Start sprinkler and uniformly inject the suspension of ALIETTE
WDG into the irrigation water line so as to deliver the desired rate per acre. The suspension of ALIETTE WDG should be injected with
a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right angle turn to insure adequate mixing. If you should have any other
questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts.
NOTE: For Mini-sprinkler and Drip Irrigation Systems: When treatment with ALIETTE WDG has been completed, further field irrigation
over the treated area should be avoided for 24 to 48 hours.
For Solid Set and Center Pivot Irrigation Systems: When treatment with ALIETTE WDG has been completed, further field irrigation
over the treated area should be avoided until foliage is dry to prevent washing the chemical off the crop.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR APPLICATIONS THROUGH SPRINKLER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
Maintain continuous agitation in mix tank during mixing and application to assure a uniform suspension.
The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation
pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. 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 pesticide injection pipeline must also contain
a functional, 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
shutdown. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the
water pump motor stops. 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. 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.
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift, when system connection or fittings leak, when nozzles do not provide uniform distribution or
when lines containing the product must be dismantled and drained.
Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop may result from non uniform distribution of treated water.
Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. A person
knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation shall shut the system down and make necessary

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Read entire label before using this product.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers
may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult agency responsible for pesticide
regulation.
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170. This standard
contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of
agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains
specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-
entry interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval of 24 hours.
PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with

Mix ALIETTE WDG with a small volume of water. The specific rates and gallonage to use are listed under the citrus and stone
fruit sections of the label.
2. Apply to wound area as a spray or paint on limbs or trunk of citrus or stone fruit trees in sufficient volume to cover the entire area to
be treated.
Fill the spray tank with 1/4 - 1/2 of the required volume of water prior to the addition of ALIETTE WDG.
Add ALIETTE WDG slowly to the tank and agitate by hydraulic or mechanical means.
Note: Bayer CropScience has determined that phytotoxicity from solubilized copper may occur if products containing copper are
tank-mixed with ALIETTE WDG or if unbuffered ALIETTE WDG is applied to foliage with copper residues.
Do not tank-mix with copper compounds. When applied prior to or after copper compounds, the pH of ALIETTE WDG
should be raised to 6.0 or above with the addition of an alkaline buffer such as Potassium Carbonate (3 lbs Potassium
Carbonate to 5 lbs ALIETTE WDG) or DiAmmonium Phosphate (5 lbs DiAmmonium Phosphate to 5 lbs ALIETTE WDG).
Slowly add alkaline buffering agent (if needed).
CAUTION: When Potassium Carbonate is used as a buffer Carbon Dioxide (CO^) gas is released during the buffering process.
The spray tank must NOT be sealed until the CO^ release associated with the reaction subsides (approximately 5 minutes).
Continue to fill the tank with water to the desired volume while agitating.
Continue agitation when applying.
COMPATIBILITY:
ALIETTE WDG Fungicide is compatible with most products used in agriculture; however, crop sensitivity to these mixtures may vary. In
particular, foliar fertilizers and copper products may not be compatible with ALIETTE WDG Fungicide and the combined use may cause
phytotoxicity to various crops. If these combinations or others have not been used before, do not tank mix without first testing the
safety of the combination (compatibility and crop phytotoxicity).
The use of spray adjuvants (e.g., stickers, spreaders, wetting agents) are not recommended with ALIETTE WDG Fungicide, However,
if an adjuvant is going to be mixed with ALIETTE WDG Fungicide, it should be tested prior to use for compatibility. Due to ALIETTE
WDG Fungicides acidic nature, do not tank mix with acid type compatibility spray adjuvants (e g., Buffit Spray-aide, Triton AG-44M) or
with adjuvants designed to enhance pesticide penetration (e.g., Herbex or Induce).
Physical compatibility with ALIETTE WDG should be checked when mixing with soluble concentrate or “flowable” formulation pesticides
such as Bravo 720 and Rovral 4F. Add the correct proportions of each product and water into a clear container, thoroughly mix and
then let stand for 3-5 minutes. If the mixture remains in suspension or can be remixed readily, the products are considered compatible.
Buffering as described above may increase compatibility.
To determine if a combination is phytotoxic to a specific crop, spray a few plants/trees and then evaluate 3-7 days later for visual
effects.
adjustments should the need arise. Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application
to a public water system unless the label-prescribed safety devices for public water supplies are in place.
GENERAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR FOLIAR APPLICATIONS
ALIETTE WDG Fungicide is an effective systemic product for control of various diseases when used according to the label directions.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
APPLICATION:
Apply ALIETTE WDG Fungicide with sufficient water volumes to obtain adequate coverage of foliage. The gallonage needed will vary
by crop and growth stage. For vegetables and small fruit, do not apply ALIETTE WDG Fungicide by ground in less than 20 gals/Acre.
Aerial applications for all labeled crops should not be made in less than 10 gals/Acre. To insure good coverage of tree fruit, spray to
wet.
When applying use spray nozzles that will deliver fine or larger spray droplets as defined in the American Society of Agricultural and
Biological Engineers (ASABE) standard ANSI/ASAE S572.I (March 2009).

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (FRAC) RECOMMENDATIONS
For resistance management, ALIETTE WDG Fungicide contains a Group 33 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals
naturally resistant to ALIETTE WDG Fungicide and other Group 33 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 ALIETTE WDG Fungicide or other Group 33 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different
groups that control the same pathogens.
• Use tank mixtures with fungicide 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 management 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
development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.
• Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive
models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance.
• Monitor treated fungal/bacterial populations for resistance development.
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM
recommendations for specific crops and pathogens.
• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937).
You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.

To minimize the chances of speckling and phytotoxicity from solubilized copper do not tank-mix with copper compounds. For all
applications the pH of ALIETTE WDG should be raised to 6.0 or above with the addition of an alkaline buffer such as Potassium
Carbonate (3 lbs Potassium Carbonate to 5 lbs ALIETTE WDG) or DiAmmonium Phosphate (5 lbs DiAmmonium Phosphate to 5 lbs
ALIETTE WDG).
Adjuvants which enhance pesticide penetration may cause phytotoxicity when mixed with ALIETTE WDG.
Mixing ALIETTE WDG with surfactants or foliar fertilizers is not recommended. Crop sensitivity to a particular combination should be
determined by spraying a few plants. Evaluate 3-7 days later for adverse effects.

______________________APPLICATION PROGRAM _________
For greenhouse, planthouse, and outdoor transplant bed use:
RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS:
* Not currently registered for use in California on Tobacco.
■ Do not use on shade tobacco as phytotoxicity may occur.
■ Do not apply within 3 days of harvest (PHI=3 days)
■ Do not exceed a total of 2 greenhouse/transplant bed applications or 5 field applications per season.
" Do not use less than 10 GPA for aerial application. Aerial application may result in reduced control due to lack of canopy
penetration and coverage. It should only be used in situations where ground application is impossible.
Note: Bayer CropScience has determined that Aliette can in some situations cause phytotoxicity in the greenhouse if it is taken up into
the plant through the roots. The user assumes all risks with use of this product in the greenhouse.
Do not tank-mix with copper compounds. When applied prior to or after copper compounds, the pH of ALIETTE WDG should be raised
to 6.0 or above with the addition of an alkaline buffer such as Potassium Carbonate (3 lbs Potassium Carbonate to 5 lbs ALIETTE
WDG) or DiAmmonium Phosphate (5 lbs DiAmmonium Phosphate to 5 lbs ALIETTE WDG).

gallons of
water Phytotoxicity warning: Aliette can cause leaf burn if washed into the root
zone or float water when other products such as Admire or other
neonicotinoid insecticides (Group 4A) are also used. Do not use on shade
tobacco. To avoid crop damage, Bayer CropScience recommends the
following:
1. Apply a low-volume broadcast foliar spray in a spray volume that gives
coverage of the foliage but does not overly contact the soil or float water. Use 3
gallons of the spray solution per 1000 sq ft for small plants. Increase the volume
as the plants grow to a maximum of 12 gallons of the spray solution per 1000 sq ft.
2. Wait until the following day to irrigate to allow Aliette to be absorbed into the
foliage and to avoid washing Aliette into the soil or float water. Insecticide
applications that require a wash down to the soil should be made prior to the
Aliette application.
Begin applications preventatively or at first sign of blue mold. Apply every 5 to 7
days. Do not exceed 2 applications. Do not exceed 0.6 lb product/1000 sq ft. per
application or 1.2 lb product/1000 sq ft. per season.
For field use:
Use the 2.5 lbs rate for light infestations, when ALIETTE WDG is used in a
program of multiple applications, or when used in a tank mix with another fungicide
registered for blue mold control.
Use the 4.0 lbs rate for situations not listed above or for moderate to heavy
infestations.
Spray Volume: Minimum of 20 gallons per acre on newly transplanted tobacco.
Increase the total spray volume by 20 gallons per acre for each week of growth in
the field until reaching a maximum of 100 gallons per acre.
Apply with a tractor mounted boom sprayer with nozzles adjusted to give complete
and thorough coverage of the foliage. In order to ensure effective coverage on
larger plants, increasing the number of spray nozzles as spray volumes increase
will maximize disease control.
Make the first application immediately following transplanting in the field. Continue
with applications on a 7 to 10 day schedule until 3 days before harvest (3 day
PHI).
Do not exceed 4 lb product/Acre per application or 20 lb product/Acre per season.
