Precautionary Statements
Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals
CAUTION. Harmful if swallowed or absorbed through
skin. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. Prolonged or frequently repeated
skin contact may cause allergic reaction in some individu-
als. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling
and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco
or using the toilet.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
• Protective eyewear (goggles, face shield or safety
glasses)
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of: barrier laminate,
butyl rubber ≥ 14 mils, nitrile rubber ≥ 14 mils, neoprene
rubber ≥ 14 mils, natural rubber ≥ 14 mils, polyethylene,
polyvinyl chloride ≥ 14 mils, or viton ≥ 14 mils
• Shoes plus socks
User Safety Requirements
Follow the manufacturers instructions for cleaning and
maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables
exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE
separately from other laundry.
Engineering Controls Statement
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or air-
craft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the
Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesti-
cides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in
the WPS.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Users should:
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets
inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean
clothing.
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately after handling this
product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing.
As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into
clean clothing.
Environmental Hazards
This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates.
Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in
water adjacent to treated areas. DO NOT apply directly to
water, areas where surface water is present, or intertidal
areas below the mean high water mark. DO NOT contami-
nate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or
rinsate.
Groundwater Advisory
Boscalid and pyraclostrobin are known to leach through
soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result
of label use. These chemicals may leach into groundwater
if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly
where the water table is shallow.
Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to run-
off of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining
soils and soils with shallow groundwater. This product is
classified as having high potential for reaching surface
water via runoff for several months or more after applica-
tion. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip
between areas to which this product is applied and sur-
face water features including ponds, streams, and springs
will reduce the potential loading of boscalid and

Product Information
This package contains Pristine® fungicide, a water dis-
persible granule (WG). The active ingredients in Pristine
belong to two classes of fungicides, the strobilurins and
anilides. Preventive applications optimize disease control
resulting in improved plant health. The increase in plant
health comes from the combined effect of disease control
(including fungal diseases listed in Crop-specific direc-
tions), improved growth efficiency and improved stress
response. Overall increased plant health may result in an
improvement in crop growth and crop quality as well as
increased crop yields. Pristine is effective against patho-
gens resistant to other fungicides. Pristine has a
protective effect because it inhibits spore germination. It
also has a curative effect because it inhibits mycelial
growth and sporulation of the fungus on the leaf surface.
However, optimum disease control is achieved when
Pristine is applied in a regularly scheduled protective
spray program and is used in a rotation program with other
fungicides. Because of its high specific activity and rain-
fastness, Pristine has good residual activity against target
fungi.
Information regarding the contents and levels of metals in
this product is available on the internet at
http://www.aapfco.org/metals.htm.
Pristine is not for use in greenhouse or transplant
production.
Sensitive Crop Precaution
Grapes - DO NOT use on Concord or Noiret
(NY73.0136.17) due to foliar injury. Possible foliar injury
could occur to Worden, Fredonia, Niagara, Steuben,
Rougeon or related grape varieties. Use special care when
applying Pristine to prevent contact with these sensitive
varieties. Not all varieties have been thoroughly tested.
Consult a BASF representative for more information con-
cerning these sensitive grape varieties. Thoroughly rinse
spray equipment, including the inside of the tank, hoses
and nozzles after and before using the same equipment on
grape varieties sensitive to Pristine.
Blueberry (highbush and lowbush) - DO NOT apply
Pristine to blueberries as a tank mix with other pesticide
products except fungicide products that contain captan
(N-Trichloromethythio-4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxamide)
as the ONLY active ingredient. DO NOT apply Pristine as
a tank mix with adjuvants, liquid fertilizers, nutrients or
other additives. Only use water as the spray carrier.
Modes of Action
Pyraclostrobin and boscalid, the active ingredients of
Pristine, belong to the groups of respiration inhibitors
classified as target site of action Group 11 and Group 7
fungicides, respectively.
Resistance Management
For resistance management, please note that Pristine
contains both a Group 7 (boscalid) and Group 11
(pyraclostrobin) fungicide. Any fungal population may con-
tain individuals naturally resistant to Pristine and other
Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of
pest control may occur over time if fungicides from these
groups are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate
resistance-management strategies must be followed.
Pristine provides effective resistance management of
most of its target pathogens because it is a premix of two
fungicides with different modes of action. Pristine is
effective against pathogens resistant to fungicides with
modes of action different from those of target site Group 7
and Group 11, including dicarboximides, sterol inhibitors,
benzimidazoles, or phenylamides. Pristine is also effec-
tive against certain pathogens with resistance to Group 11
fungicides. However, fungal isolates resistant to Group 7
or Group 11 fungicides may eventually dominate the fun-
gal population if Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides are used
predominantly and repeatedly in the same field in succes-
sive years as the primary method of control for the
targeted pathogen species. This may result in reduction of
disease control by Pristine or other Group 7 or Group 11
fungicides, especially if resistance to either Group 7 or
Group 11 fungicides is already present in the pathogen
population. To maintain the performance of Pristine in the
field, DO NOT exceed the specified number of applica-
tions of Pristine and the total number of applications of
Pristine per year stated in Restrictions and Limitations
and crop-specific use requirements. Adhere to the label
instructions regarding the sequential use of Pristine or
other target site of action Group 7 and Group 11
fungicides that have a similar site of action on the same
pathogens.
5
To delay the development of fungicide resistance:
• Rotate - Rotate the use of Pristine® fungicide or other
Group 7 and Group 11 fungicides within a growing sea-
son sequence with different mode of action groups that
control the same pathogens.
• 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.
• Integrated Pest Management (IPM) - Integrate
Pristine into an overall disease and pest management
program. Follow cultural practices known to reduce
disease development. Consult your local extension spe-
cialist, certified crop advisor and/or BASF representative
for additional IPM strategies established for your area.
Pristine may be used in Agricultural Extension advisory
(disease forecasting) programs which base application
timing on environmental factors favorable for disease
development.
• 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.
Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance
development.
• Reporting - If a Group 7 or Group 11 target site fungi-
cide, including Pristine, appears to be less effective or
no longer effective against a pathogen that it previously
controlled or suppressed, contact a BASF representa-
tive, local extension specialist, or certified crop advisor to
assist in determining the cause of reduced performance.
Cleaning Spray Equipment
Clean spray equipment thoroughly before and after apply-
ing this product, particularly if a product with the potential
to injure crops was used prior to Pristine.
Application Instructions
Apply directed rates of Pristine as instructed by Table 3.
Pristine® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements .
Under low-level disease conditions, use the minimum
application rates. Use maximum application rates and the
shorter application interval for severe or threatening dis-
ease conditions. Ground application is advised for
thorough coverage. DO NOT apply by air to dill seed,
herb, peanut, and turnip greens. For all other crops listed
on this label, aerial application can be made, including
conditions where applications are not possible using
ground equipment. Pristine can be applied through sprin-
kler irrigation equipment, except for use on dill seed, herb,
and turnip greens. Check equipment frequently for
calibration.
Ground Application
Apply Pristine in sufficient water to ensure thorough cov-
erage of foliage, bloom, and fruit. Thorough coverage is
required for optimum disease control.
Directed or Banded Sprays
The application rates on the Pristine label reflect the
amount of product uniformly applied over an acre of
ground on a broadcast basis.
In some crops, apply Pristine as a directed or banded
spray over the rows or plant beds with the alleys or row
middles left unsprayed. For such uses, reduce the labeled
Pristine rates in proportion to the area actually sprayed.
This adjustment is necessary to avoid applying the product
at use rates higher than permitted according to label
directions.
Use the following formula to determine the broadcast
equivalent rate for doing directed or banded sprays:
sprayed bed
width + unsprayed row
middles width = total
row width
sprayed bed
width in inches x
broadcast rate =
band rate
total row
width in inches

Example: A directed spray application will be made to
45-inch plant beds that are separated by 15-inch
unsprayed row middles.

Aerial Application
For aerial application in New York State, DO NOT
apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (including,
but not limited to lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams,
mar shes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish
ponds).
DO NOT apply by air to dill seed, herb, peanut, and turnip
greens. For all other crops listed on this label, aerial appli-
cation can be made and thorough coverage is required to
obtain optimum disease control. Avoid applications under
conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or
when spray drift may occur. Use no less than 5 gallons of
spray solution per acre. For aerial application to citrus fruit,
grape, hops, pome fruit, stone fruit, and tree nut, use no
less than 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. Thorough
coverage is required for optimum disease control.

MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT
MANAGEMENT
Aerial Applications
• DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 ft
above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a great-
er application height is necessary for pilot safety.
• Applicators are required to select nozzle and pressure
that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size
(ASABE S641).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles
per hour at the application site. If the windspeed is
greater than 10 miles per hour, the boom length must
be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed-wing aircraft
and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of
the wingspan for fixed-wing aircraft and 90% or less of
the rotor diameter for helicopters.
• If the windspeed is 10 miles per hour or less, applica-
tors must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind at the
downwind edge of the field. When the windspeed is
between 11 to 15 miles per hour, applicators must use
3/4 swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge
of the field.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Airblast Applications
• Sprays must be directed into the canopy.
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles
per hour at the application site.
• User must turn off outward pointing nozzles at row
ends and when spraying outer row.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Ground Boom Applications
• User must only apply with the release height recom-
mended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 ft
above the ground or crop canopy.
• Applicators are required to use nozzles and pressure
that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size
(ASABE S572.1).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles
per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-
SITE SPRAY DRIFT.
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NONTARGET SITES AND ENVI-
RONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
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.
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 - 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.
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.
Release Height - Aircraft
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray 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 applica-
tions during temperature inversions.
Wind
AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDI-
TIONS. Drift potential generally increases with wind speed.
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns
and terrain that could affect spray drift.

(wheel) roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move
irrigation systems. DO NOT apply this product through
any other type of irrigation system.
• Add this product to the pesticide supply tank containing
sufficient water to maintain a continuous flow by the
injection equipment. In continuous moving systems,
inject this product-water mixture continuously, applying
the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT exceed
1/2 inch (13,577 gallons) per acre. In stationary or
non-continuous moving systems, inject the product-
water mixture in the last 15 to 30 minutes of each set
allowing sufficient time for all of the required pesticide to
be applied by all the sprinkler heads and applying the
labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT apply when
wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for
treatment. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal
pesticide residues in the crop can result from non uniform
distribution of treated water. Thorough coverage of foli-
age is required for good control. Maintain good agitation
during the entire application period.
• If you have questions about calibration, contact a state
extension service specialist, equipment manufacturers or
other experts.
• 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 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 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 with-
drawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is
either automatically or manually shut down.
• 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 function-
al 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, including 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.
• 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, or under the supervision of
the responsible person, must shut the system down and
make necessary adjustments when appropriate.
• 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.
Specific Instructions for Public Water Systems
1. Public water system 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 at least 25 individuals daily at least
60 days out of the year.
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water sys-
tems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone
(RPZ) backflow preventer or the functional equivalent in
the water supply line upstream from the point of pesti-
cide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, discharge
the water from the public water system 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 res-
ervoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill
pipe.
3. 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.
4. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function-
al, 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 with-
drawn 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, including 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.

Additives and Tank Mixing Information
Under some conditions, the use of additives or adjuvants
may improve the performance of Pristine® fungicide.
However, all varieties and cultivars have not been tested
with possible tank mix combinations. Local conditions can
also influence crop response and may not match those
under which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incom-
patibility, reduced disease control, or crop injury may result
from mixing Pristine with other products. Therefore,
before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecticides, herbi-
cides, 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 phytotox-
ic response will not occur as a result of application.
Consult a BASF representative or local agricultural authori-
ties for more information concerning additives.
If tank mixtures are used, it is the pesticide users respon-
sibility 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 restric-
tive directions for use and precautionary statements of
each product in the tank mixture.
Pristine can be tank mixed with most fungicides, insecti-
cides, herbicides, liquid fertilizers, biological control
products, adjuvants, and additives. See Table 3.
Pristine
® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements for
exceptions.
Compatibility Test for Tank Mix
Components
Add components in the following sequence using 2 tea-
spoons for each pound or 1 teaspoon for each pint of label
rate per acre:
1. Water - For 100 gallons per acre spray volume, use
16 cups (1 gallon) of water. For other spray volumes,
adjust rates accordingly. Use only water from the intend-
ed source at the source temperature.
2. Water-dispersible products (dry flowables, wettable
powders, suspension concentrates, or suspo-
emulsions). Cap the jar and invert 10 cycles.
3. Water-soluble products - Cap the jar and invert
10 cycles.
4. Emulsifiable concentrates (oil concentrate or methyl-
ated seed oil when applicable). Cap the jar and invert
10 cycles.
5. Water-soluble additives - Cap the jar and invert
10 cycles.
6. Let the solution stand for 15 minutes.
7. Evaluate the solution for uniformity and stability. The
spray solution must not have free oil on the surface, nor
fine particles that precipitate to the bottom, nor thick
(clabbered) texture. DO NOT use any spray solution that
could clog spray nozzles.
Mixing Order
1. Water - Begin by filling a thoroughly clean sprayer tank
3/4 full of clean water.
2. Agitation - Maintain constant agitation throughout mix-
ing and application.
3. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly
after each component has been added.
4. Products in PVA bags - Place any product contained
in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait
until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and
the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before
continuing.
5. Water-dispersible products (including Pristine, dry
flowables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates,
or suspo-emulsions)
6. Water-soluble products
7. Emulsifiable concentrates (including oil concentrates
when applicable)
8. Water-soluble additives (including ammonium sulfate
[AMS] or urea ammonium nitrate [UAN] when applicable)
9. Remaining quantity of water
Make sure that each component is thoroughly mixed and
suspended before adding tank mix partners. Maintain
constant agitation during application. See Table 3.
Pristine
® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements for
more details.
Restrictions and Limitations

Table 3. Pristine® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements (continued)
Alfalfa (including alfalfa grown for seed) (continued)
Application Directions. Begin Pristine applications when conditions favorable for disease are expected, but prior to
onset of disease development. For stand establishment of fall-seeded alfalfa, begin applications in fall through early
winter prior to first snowfall or extended cool, wet conditions. For seed pod protection, begin applications at 10% to
30% bloom. Use the higher rate and shorter interval when disease pressure is high.
Using higher rates may improve disease control performance as the crop canopy volume and density increases.
Disease control can also be improved when application equipment and spray volume is adjusted to achieve thorough
canopy penetration and coverage.
Repeat application on a 14-day to 21-day interval if conditions are favorable for disease development.
Under some conditions, additives or adjuvants may improve the performance of Pristine.
No livestock feeding restrictions.
Resistance Management. To limit development of resistance, DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential Pristine
applications per cutting or three (3) Pristine applications per year. Alternate to a labeled non-Group 7 or
non-Group 11 fungicide with different mode of action following two (2) sequential Pristine applications.
Restrictions and Limitations

Application Directions. Begin applications of Pristine prior to onset of disease development and continue on a
7-day to 14-day interval. Use the shorter interval and/or the higher rate when disease pressure is high.
* For the berries listed in this table (except blueberry), it is impossible for BASF to test all bushberry and
caneberry crops for sensitivity to Pristine under all environments and all potential product mixture combinations.
Local conditions can also influence crop response and may not match those under which BASF has conducted
testing. Proceed with caution with regard to Pristine use, particularly in tank mixes and/or adjuvant combinations on
bushberry and caneberry crops. To reduce the risk of berry crop injury, BASF advises testing Pristine or Pristine
tank mixtures on a small portion of the crop before broad scale use. To the extent consistent with applicable law, the
user assumes all risks associated with adding products to the Pristine spray solution. Refer also to the Conditions
of Sale and Warranty section of this label.
Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT make more than two (2)
sequential applications of Pristine or other Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides before alternating to a labeled fungicide
with a different mode of action.
Restrictions and Limitations
• Maximum single application rate is 23 ozs/A (0.363 lb boscalid, 0.184 lb pyraclostrobin).
• Maximum annual application rate is 92 ozs/A (1.45 lbs boscalid, 0.736 lb pyraclostrobin) per year.
• DO NOT make more than four (4) applications of Pristine per year.
• Minimum retreatment interval is 7 days.
**
Blueberry (highbush and lowbush) is not registered for use in California. For all other states, DO NOT apply
Pristine to blueberries as a tank mix with other pesticide products except fungicide products that contain captan

and continue on a 7-day to 14-day interval. Use the higher rate and the shorter interval when disease pressure is high.
For the low growing berries listed in this table, it is impossible for BASF to test all low growing berry crops for
sensitivity to Pristine under all environments and all potential product mixture combinations. Local conditions can also
influence crop response and may not match those under which BASF has conducted testing. Proceed with caution
with regard to Pristine use, particularly in tank mixes and/or adjuvant combinations on low growing berry crops. To
reduce the risk of berry crop injury, BASF advises testing Pristine or Pristine tank mixtures on a small portion of the
crop before broad scale use. To the extent consistent with applicable law, the user assumes all risks associated with
adding products to the Pristine spray solution. Refer also to the Conditions of Sale and Warranty section of this
label.
Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT make more than two (2)
sequential applications of Pristine or other Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides before alternating to a labeled fungicide
with a different mode of action.

Application Directions. For powdery mildew control, begin applications of Pristine as of bud break prior to
onset of disease, using 8 ozs per acre on a 10-day to 14-day interval. Use 10 to 12.5 ozs per acre on a 14-day to
21-day interval.
For black rot and downy mildew control, begin applications of Pristine as of pre-bloom prior to onset of disease
and continue applications on a 10-day to 14-day interval.
For all other diseases listed except for Botrytis gray mold, begin applications of Pristine prior to onset of
disease and continue applications on a 10-day to 14-day interval. Pristine applied at rates of 8 to 12.5 ozs per acre for
control of the listed diseases will also suppress Botrytis gray mold.
For control of Botrytis gray mold, apply 18.5 to 23 ozs per acre of Pristine prior to onset of disease development
when conditions favor disease development during early bloom, bunch pre-closure and veraison up to 14 days before
harvest. Continue applications on a 10-day to 14-day interval.

Use the highest labeled rate for anthracnose.
Tank Mixes with Adjuvants and Other Products. BASF evaluations indicate that tank mixes of additives,
adjuvants, and/or other products with Pristine may result in injury. This is particularly true for muskmelon crops
including cantaloupe and honeydew. Users need to be aware of this, proceed with caution, and test for crop safety
when tank mixing, as stated below.
Applications of additives, adjuvants, and/or other products that increase penetration may cause injury when mixed with
Pristine. Injury potential from these kinds of tank mixes may decrease with lower rates of the tank mix partner. Users
are advised to test for crop safety, as stated below.
BASF has not tested all varieties and cultivars with all possib le tank mix combinations and rates of additives, adjuvants,
and/or other products. Local environmental conditions also influence crop response and may not match those under
which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop injury may result from
mixing Pristine with other products.
To minimize the likelihood of crop injury, BASF advises testing Pristine in combination with additives, adjuvants, and/
or other products for crop safety on a small portion of the crop. However, environmental variability precludes direct and
consistent projection of small area test results to future use.
Consult a BASF representative for more information concerning additives or adjuvants.
Resistance Management. To limit the potential of development of resistance, DO NOT make more than one (1)
application of Pristine before alternating to a labeled fungicide with a different mode of action for at least one (1)

Table 3. Pristine® fungicide Crop-specific Requirements (continued)
Fruiting vegetables [group 8-10] (continued)
Application Directions. Begin Pristine applications prior to disease development and continue on a 7-day to 14-day
interval for anthracnose, black mold, botrytis gray mold, early blight, powdery mildew, Septoria leaf spot, and target
spot. For control of late blight, begin applications prior to disease development; then follow each Pristine application
with a labeled fungicide with a different mode of action 5 to 7 days later. Use the higher rate and shorter interval when
disease pressure is high.
*
For applications based on dilute volume, spray plants to runoff. Apply a minimum of 20 gallons of spray volume per
acre, and increase the spray volume as the plants grow. Spray proportional volume to the amount of plant tissue to
be covered such that 100 gallons of spray per acre is used on mature plants.
Use of Adjuvants. Additive or adjuvant use may improve the performance of Pristine on fruiting vegetables.
However, BASF evaluations also indicate that under some conditions (particularly high temperatures and/or high
additive rates), Pristine application in combination with certain rates of silicone based or oil-containing (petroleum or
crop) additives or adjuvants can cause injury.
BASF has not tested all varieties and cultivars with all possible tank mix combinations and rates of additives or
adjuvants. Local environmental conditions also influence crop response and may not match those under which BASF
has conducted testing. Physical incompatibility, reduced disease control, or crop injury may result from mixing
Pristine with other products.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the user assumes all risks associated with adding products to the
Pristine spray solution. BASF cannot be held responsible for crop injury, reduced disease control or incompatibility
because of additives, adjuvants or other products used in combination with Pristine (see Conditions of Sale and
Warranty).
To minimize the likelihood of crop injury, test Pristine in combination with other products for crop safety on a small
portion of the crop. However, environmental variability precludes direct and consistent projection of small area test
results to future use.
Consult a BASF representative for more information concerning additives or adjuvants.
Resistance Management. To limit development of resistance, DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential Pristine
applications before alternating to a labeled non-Group 7 or non-Group 11 fungicide with a different mode of action.
For additional resistance management information, see Resistance Management in the Product Information
section.
Restrictions and Limitations
• DO NOT apply more than 58.2 ozs/A (0.920 lb boscalid, 0.466 lb pyraclostrobin) per year for fruiting vegetables,
except Tomato. For Tomato, DO NOT apply more than 69 ozs/A (1.09 lbs boscalid, 0.552 lb pyraclostrobin) per year.
• Maximum single application rate is 25 ozs/A (0.395 lb boscalid, 0.200 lb pyraclostrobin).
• DO NOT make more than six (6) applications of Pristine per year for fruiting vegetables, except Tomato. For Tomato,
DO NOT make more than five (5) applications of Pristine per year at 12.5 ozs/A or two (2) applications of Pristine per
year at 25 ozs/A.
• Minimum retreatment interval is 7 days.

Application Directions. Aerial application may result in reduced control due to lack of canopy penetration and
coverage. Use aerial application only when ground application is not possible.
Apply a preventive spray of Pristine at 14 ozs (0.221 lb boscalid, 0.112 lb pyraclostrobin) as a tank mix with a
myclobutanil fungicide product at a rate equivalent to 0.15 lb per acre of active ingredient for resistance
management.
Avoid applications under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be obtained or when spray drift may occur. Use a
minimum of 10 gallons of water per acre when applying by air. Thorough coverage is essential.
Because complete coverage is important for effective disease control, aerial application at low volumes may
result in reduced control due to lack of canopy penetration and coverage .
Mixing Pristine with surfactants or foliar fertilizers is not advised when applying by air. Similarly, adjuvants that
enhance pesticide penetration may cause phytotoxicity when used with Pristine applied by air.
Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT make more than one (1)
aerial application of Pristine per year and include a myclobutanil product as a tank mix as described.
Restrictions and Limitations
• DO NOT apply more than 14 ozs/A (0.221 lb boscalid, 0.112 lb pyraclostrobin) per application

It is impossible for BASF to test strawberry sensitivity to Pristine under all environments and all potential product
mixture combinations. Local conditions can also influence crop response and may not match those under which BASF
has conducted testing. Proceed with caution with regard to Pristine use, particularly in tank mixes and/or adjuvant
combinations on strawberry crops. To reduce the risk of strawberry crop injury, BASF advises testing Pristine or
Pristine tank mixtures on a small portion of the crop before broad scale use. To the extent consistent with applicable
law, the user assumes all risks associated with adding products to the Pristine spray solution. Refer also to the
Conditions of Sale and Warranty section of this label.

begin applications of Pristine prior to onset of disease development and continue on a 7-day to 21-day interval for the
control of scab. In pistachio, begin applications prior to the onset of disease development and continue on a 10-day
to 30-day interval. For all other crops listed above, apply Pristine prior to disease development and continue on a
7-day to 28-day interval. In all cases, use the shorter interval when shoot growth is very rapid.
Use the shorter interval and/or the higher rate when disease pressure is high.
No restriction on livestock feeding for almond hulls.
For aerial application to tree nuts, use no less than 10 gallons of spray solution per acre.
Resistance Management. To limit the potential for development of resistance, DO NOT make more than two (2)
sequential applications of Pristine or other Group 7 or Group 11 fungicides before alternating to a labeled fungicide
with a different mode of action.
Restrictions and Limitations
*
DO NOT make more than the Maximum Number of Applications per Year for applications made at the maximum
Product Use Rate per Application (14.5 ozs/A contains 0.229 lb boscalid, 0.116 lb pyraclostrobin). Additional
applications per year are permitted when a lower Product Use Rate per Application is used, as long as the Maximum
Product Rate per Year (58 ozs/A contains 0.916 lb boscalid, 0.464 lb pyraclostrobin) is not exceeded.
• Maximum single application rate is 14.5 ozs/A (0.229 lb boscalid, 0.116 lb pyraclostrobin).
• Maximum annual application rate is 58 ozs/A (0.916 lb boscalid, 0.464 lb pyraclostrobin) per year.
• Minimum retreatment interval is 7 days.
• Minimum time from application to harvest (PHI) is 14 days. (for almond - 25 days)
