APPLICATION AND MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide contains 1.92 pounds of flutriafol per gallon and can be
mixed directly with liquid fertilizer or with water as the carrier. If applied to the soil surface,
rainfall or irrigation of a minimum of 0.5 inch is required to incorporate Y6981-R002 LFR®
fungicide into the soil to make the active ingredient available for root uptake. The
amount of precipitation required will vary with soil type, existing soil moisture, and rainfall
or irrigation intensity.
At-plant Applications with Fertilizer: Y6981-R002 LFR ® fungicide can be mixed with
commonly used liquid starter or pop -up fertiliz ers. Follow liquid fertilizer directions
regarding seed safety and use guidelines. Conduct a jar test using the appropriate ratio
of fertilizer and Y6981 -R002 LFR® fungicide prior to mixing in the applicator. It is not
advised to allow a tank mixture to se t overnight or longer, but if this occurs agitate tank
mixture prior to resuming application.
Follow the application directions in the specific crop use directions. Use the highest rate
for the specific crop when disease pressure is expected to be high. Prepare the Y6981-
R002 LFR® fungicide/ liquid fertilizer or water mixture immediately prior to application.
Shake well or circulate container contents before use. . Fill the tank 1/3 to ½ full with liquid
fertilizer or water and begin spray tank agitation. Add the proper amount of Y6981-R002
LFR® fungicide, and then add the rest of the fertilizer or water. Add any other additives
(micronutrients, soil amendments, etc.) to the tank after the Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide
is thoroughly mixed with the carrier. Maintain agitation until the mixture has been applied.
Tank Mixing: Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide may be tank mixed with other fungicides,
herbicides, insecticides, and/or other additives unless prohibited on the label of the tank
mix partner. Follow more restrictive labeling of any tank mix partner. Although Y6981-
R002 LFR® fungicide is compatible with most products, not all combinations have been
tested. All crop varieties and cultivars have not been tested. Local conditions can al so
Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide [Optional text appears in brackets]
EPA Reg. No. 279-9658
8
influence crop tolerance and may not match those under which FMC has conducted
testing. FMC has not tested all possible combinations and rates of additives or adjuvants.
Physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop response/injury may result from
mixing Y6981 -R002 LFR ® fungicide with other products. It is the pesticide users
responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and
follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels
involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and
precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Use the compatibility jar
test to ensure physical compatibility. Before applying any tan k mixture not specifically
advised on this label, the crop safety of the target crop should be confirmed by applying
the mixture to a small area of the target crop in accordance to the label instructions.
Compatibility Jar Test: Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide is compatible with most products,
however not all combinations have been tested. Use the following compatibility jar test
to ensure physical compatibility.
Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to approximately one
quart of the carrier, (water or liquid fertil izer) with agitation. Add wettable powders and
water dispersible granular products first, next liquid flowables, then emulsifiable
concentrates, and last liquid soluble products. After thorough mixing, allow this mixture
to stand for 5 minutes. If the co mbination remains mixed or can be readily remixed, it is
physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same procedure for
adding products to the spray tank. Use tank mix combinations on a small number of
plants before treating larger areas. When tank mixing, follow more restrictive labeling of
any tank mix partner. DO NOT tank mix with any product that contains a prohibition on
tank mixing.
Liquid Application: Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide should be applied in a minimum of 5
gallons total spray volume per acre. The minimum application volume should be capable
of maintaining a solid delivery stream. A broke n or intermittent stream could negatively
affect performance.
Dry Fertilizer Impregnation: Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide may be impregnated on many
dry bulk fertilizers and applied at-planting or postemergence to registered crops.
All individual state regulations relating to dry bulk granular fertilizer blending, labeling, and
application are the responsibility of the individual or company selling the
fungicide/fertilizer mixture.
To impregnate Y6981-R002 on dry bulk fertilizer, use a closed rotary drum mixer or other
commonly used dry bulk fertilizer blender equipped with suitable spray equipment.
Prepare a slurry of Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide in a clean container using clean water.
Slowly add the slurry to the impregnation spray tank and finish filling as need with water.
Spray nozzles must be placed to provide uniform coverage of the Y6981 -R002 LFR®
fungicide onto the fertilizer during mixing.
Refer to the appropriate crop section of the Y6981 -R002 LFR ® fungicide label to
determine the rate of Y6981 -R002 to be applied per acre . Use the following formula to
determine the amount of Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide to be impregnated on a ton (2000
lbs.) of dry bulk fertilizer based on the rate of fertilizer that will be applied per acre.

Chemigation:
Application through Drip Irrigation Systems (Chemigation):
Apply Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide through drip irrigation to crops at rates and timings
specified in this label. Agitation is required to ensure uniform suspension and product
application to the treated crop. If an application must be stopped due to equipment
breakdown or inclement weather, agitation of the solution is required to ensure uniform
suspension before application resumes. Ensure adequate soil moisture prior to utilizing
Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide in a drip irrigation system. Chemical tank and injector system
must be thoroughly cleaned before and after use. Flush system with clean water.
Discontinue drip irrigation application at fungicide depletion from the main feed supply tank
or after 6 hours from start, whichever is shorter. DO NOT allow chemical to remain in the
irrigation system afte r the application is complete. Flush the system with a volume of
water adequate to completely remove product from the lines but less than the amount of
total water volume that could saturate the beds. Delay subsequent irrigation (water only)
for at least 24 hours following drip application for best results.
Restriction:
DO NOT apply Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide through drip irrigation that is deeper
than 12” below the soil surface.
Operating Requirements for Application through Irrigation Systems:
Restriction:
1. DO NOTuse chemigation when conditions are favorable for drift to non-target areas.
2. To prevent water -source contamination from backflow, a functional check valve,
vacuum relief valve, and low-pressure drain should be located on the irrigation pipeline.
3. To prevent backflow back toward the injection pump, the pesticide injection pipeline
must be equipped with a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve.
4. To prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system
is shut down, the pesticide injection pipeline should also be equipped with a functional,
normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection
pump and connected to the system interlock.
5. The system must also contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off
the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops and a functional
pressure switch to stop the pump motor when water pressure decreases to a point at
which pesticide distribution is adversely affected.

EPA Reg. No. 279-9658
10
6. A metering pump, constructed of materials compatible with pesticides and capable of
being fitted with a system interlock, for example, a positive displacement injection pump
(e.g., a diaphragm pump), must be included in the system.
7. A knowledgeable person responsible for the chemigation system should shut the
system down and turn the irrigation water off, ensuring enough time for the pesticide to
be flushed through all lines and nozzles.
8. No irrigation system, including those in greenhouses, used to distribute pesticides can
be connected to a public water source unless safety measures and devices prescribed
in the pesticide label for such connection are in place.
Specific Instructions for Public Water Systems:
1. Public water system means a system that provides piped water for human consumption
if the 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. All measures and devices listed in the above section, “Operating Requirements for
Application through Irrigation Systems”, must be operational for connection to a public
water system.
3. Additionally, 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 should be discharged into
a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There must 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.

SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT.
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL
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 specified 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.
BOOM HEIGHT Ground Boom
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal
bounce.
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. 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.
WIND
Drift potential 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.

BOOMLESS 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.
Resistance Management:
Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide contains the active ingredient flutriafol, a FRAC Group 3
demethylation inhibitor (DMI). Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally
resistant to Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide and other Group 3 fungicides. A gradual or
total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly
in the same fields.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
• Rotate the use of Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide or other FRAC Group 3
fungicides within a growing season with non-FRAC Group 3 fungicides effective
against the target pathogen .
• Use tank mixtures with fungicides from a different FRAC 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 populations for resistance development.
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional
pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM guidelines for specific crops and
pathogens.
• For information or to report suspected resistance contact your pesticide
distributor or university extension specialist.

CROP USE DIRECTIONS
Product Information
Y6981-R002 fungicide is a soil applied fungicide that is absorbed through the roots and
is translocated through the vascular system within the plant and is distributed through
the roots, stem and leaves for foliar disease control during the growing season. The
systemic movement of Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide can also aid in reduction of soil
disease infection by feeding of insect pests for example corn rootworm in corn leading
to healthier plants.
Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide soil applications provide disease control/suppression
through the growing season. For control of late-season infestations, heavy disease
pressure situations, a supplemental foliar application of an appropriate fungicide may
be needed.

In-Furrow Precautions :
• In-furrow placement of Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide in direct contact with the seed
can result in uneven or delayed corn emergence, and possible stand loss.
Conditions that can increase the degree of this response include cold soils, high
salt content fertilizers, soil compaction and other seedling stresses. Planting into
cold, high residue covered soils leading to a long emergence period can increase
the emergence delay. To minimize this response, plant corn when soil
temperatures are minimum of 55° F, with favorable growing conditions in the
forecast.
• Avoid direct contact with the seed when soil temperatures are below 55°F and/or
place Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide a minimum of ½" away from the seed to
reduce the risk for uneven emergence or stand loss.
• DO NOT apply in-furrow in combination with potassium thio-sulfate (KTS), Boron,
or 28% or 32% UAN fertilizers.
• In-furrow applications of Y6981-R002 LFR® fungicide directly on the seed on
sweet corn, seed corn, and popcorn can result in emergence delays and potential
stand loss. Not all varieties, inbred lines, and hybrids have been tested for crop
safety.
• DO NOTapply more than 0.44 oz/1000 in-furrow on sandy soils or soils with less
than 1.5% O.M. High application rates in-furrow combined with sandy soils and/or
heavy rainfall or irrigation and soil temperature below 50°F within 3 days of
planting can result in emergence delays, unevenness or stand loss.
