Precautionary Statements
|
||
Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals
|
||
CAUTION. Harmful if swallowed.
|
||
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
|
||
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
|
||
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
|
||
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof
|
||
material*
|
||
• Shoes plus socks
|
||
* Includes natural rubber blends and laminates
|
||
Follow the manufacturer’s 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.
|
||
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
|
||
Users should:
|
||
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum,
|
||
using tobacco, or using the toilet.
|
||
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets
|
||
inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean
|
||
clothing.
|
||
• Remove 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 product 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, or to areas where surface
|
||
water is present, or intertidal areas below the mean high
|
||
water mark. DO NOT contaminate water when cleaning
|
||
equipment or disposing of equipment washwaters or
|
||
rinsate.
|
||
DO NOT discharge effluent containing this product into
|
||
lakes, streams, ponds, estuaries, oceans, or other waters
|
||
unless in accordance with the requirements of a National
|
||
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit
|
||
and the permitting authority has been notified in writing
|
||
prior to discharge. DO NOT discharge effluent containing
|
||
this product to sewer systems without previously notifying
|
||
the local sewage treatment plant authority. For guidance,
|
||
contact your State Water Board or the regional office of the
|
||
EPA.
|
||
Treated seed exposed on soil surface may be hazardous
|
||
to wildlife. Cover or collect seeds spilled during loading
|
||
and planting, such as in row ends. If treated seed is spilled
|
||
outdoors or in areas accessible to birds or endangered
|
||
species, promptly clean up and dis pose of properly to pre-
|
||
vent ingestion. Dispose of all excess treated seed by
|
||
burying seed away from bodies of water.
|
||
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 pyraclostrobin from run-
|
||
off water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be
|
||
reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation
|
||
is expected to occur within 48 hours. Sound erosion

Product Information
|
||
Stamina® F4 Cereals fungicide seed treatment is a
|
||
broad-spectrum liquid fungicide that protects seed and
|
||
seedlings from certain seed and soilborne diseases result-
|
||
ing in improved plant health. Stamina F4 Cereals
|
||
increases emergence and plant stands by controlling or
|
||
suppressing these diseases. See Stamina
|
||
® F4 Cereals
|
||
fungicide seed treatment Crop-specific Use
|
||
Directions for crop uses and diseases controlled or sup-
|
||
pressed by Stamina F4 Cereals . Disease symptoms
|
||
such as seed rot, seedling rot, seedling blight, root rot, and
|
||
damping-off (preemergence or postemergence) can be
|
||
associated with the actions of various fungal pathogens.
|
||
These symptoms are referred to in Stamina
|
||
® F4 Cereals
|
||
fungicide seed treatment Crop-specific Use
|
||
Directions as “seed and seedling disease”.
|
||
Seed treatment applications with Stamina F4 Cereals
|
||
have been associated with more rapid and increased
|
||
emergence of seedlings under certain cold conditions.
|
||
Use the higher specified or labeled rates of Stamina F4
|
||
Cereals when disease pressure is expected to be high.
|
||
Stamina F4 Cereals contains an EPA-approved dye that
|
||
imparts an unnatural color to the treated seed to prevent
|
||
its accidental use as a food or feed for animals. Refer to
|
||
21 CFR, Part 2.25.
|
||
Mode of Action
|
||
Stamina F4 Cereals contains four active ingredients from
|
||
different fungicide groups that have distinct modes of
|
||
action.
|
||
• Pyraclostrobin is classified as a Target Site of Action
|
||
Group 11 fungicide.
|
||
• Fluxapyroxad is classified as a Target Site of Action
|
||
Group 7 fungicide.
|
||
• Triticonazole is classified as a Target Site of Action
|
||
Group 3 fungicide.
|
||
• Metalaxyl is classified as a Target Site of Action Group 4
|
||
fungicide.
|
||
Due to the minimal amount of Stamina F4 Cereals
|
||
applied to the seed that relocates to the upper parts of the
|
||
plant and the multiple modes of action, the potential for
|
||
development of resistance is extremely low. Seed treat-
|
||
ments of Stamina F4 Cereals can therefore be followed
|
||
by foliar use and resistance management guidelines of foli-
|
||
ar use fungicides containing the same modes of action as
|
||
specified on the respective labels.
|
||
Resistance Management
|
||
Stamina F4 Cereals contains a Group 3 (triticonazole),
|
||
Group 4 (metalaxyl), Group 7 (fluxapyroxad), and
|
||
Group 11 (pyraclostrobin) fungicide. Any fungal population
|
||
may contain individuals naturally resistant to Stamina F4
|
||
Cereals and other Group 3, Group 4, Group 7 and/or
|
||
Group 11 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest con-
|
||
trol may occur over time if these fungicides are used
|
||
repeatedly in the same fields. Other resistance
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
mechanisms that are not linked to site of action but specif-
|
||
ic for individual chemicals, including enhanced
|
||
metabolism, may also exist. Appropriate resistance-
|
||
management strategies should be followed.
|
||
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the fol-
|
||
lowing steps:
|
||
• Rotate the use of Stamina
|
||
® F4 Cereals fungicide seed
|
||
treatment or other Group 3, Group 4, Group 7, and
|
||
Group 11 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 pest management (IPM) program for
|
||
fungicide use that includes scou ting, uses historical infor-
|
||
mation related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and
|
||
which considers host plant resistance, impact of environ-
|
||
mental 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 devel-
|
||
opment. Monitor the 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.
|
||
• 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 your BASF representative, local extension spe-
|
||
cialist, or certified crop advisor.

Application Instructions
|
||
Stamina F4 Cereals can be used in commercial seed
|
||
treatment facilities and on-farm systems. DO NOT apply
|
||
directly into planter box. For use with commercial or pro-
|
||
fessional seed treatment application equipment only.
|
||
Seed must be of a good quality, well conditioned, and free
|
||
of chaff before treatment.
|
||
Prepare no more mixture of Stamina F4 Cereals than is
|
||
needed for immediate application to seed. Refer to the
|
||
Tank Mixing Information section of this label. Apply
|
||
Stamina F4 Cereals at the rates listed in Stamina
|
||
® F4
|
||
Cereals fungicide seed treatment Crop-specific Use
|
||
Directions as a water-based mixture using standard slur-
|
||
ry or mist-type seed treatment application equipment. The
|
||
exact amount of water needed to provide the mixture or
|
||
slurry rate for uniform and complete coverage of the seed
|
||
surface is difficult to predict because weather conditions,
|
||
seed type and surface, and equipment used all have a
|
||
bearing on coverage. Thorough seed coverage and proper
|
||
application equipment calibration are essential for good
|
||
disease control. Consult a seed treatment specialist
|
||
regarding slurry rates for the crop seed to be treated with
|
||
Stamina F4 Cereals and for calibration and operation
|
||
procedures of the seed treatment equipment.
|
||

Compatibility Test for Tank Mix
|
||
Components
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all
|
||
products are registered for the intended use. Read and
|
||
follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and direc-
|
||
tions 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.
|
||
When tank mixing Stamina F4 Cereals , always test com-
|
||
patibility before use by performing a jar test as follows:
|
||
1. Add all intended seed treatment products and the
|
||
appropriate amount of water in a clear glass jar.
|
||
2. Mix well and allow to sit for one hour.
|
||
3. Remix and observe for physical incompatibility.
|
||
Also test with the seed to ensure the combination of tank
|
||
mix products does not have detrimental effects on the
|
||
seed.
|
||
Mixing Order
|
||
For containers 5 gallons or less, shake well before use. For
|
||
containers greater than 5 gallons, recirculate before use.
|
||
1. Water - Add 3/4 of the required volume of water to the
|
||
mix tank and turn on agitation.
|
||
2. Agitation - Mechanical agitation is required for proper
|
||
mixing of Stamina F4 Cereals .
|
||
3. Dye or colorant
|
||
4. Wettable powders

SEED CONTAINER LABEL REQUIREMENTS
|
||
The Federal Seed Act requires that containers contain-
|
||
ing treated seeds shall be labeled with the following
|
||
statements:
|
||
• This seed has been treated with Stamina
|
||
® F4
|
||
Cereals fungicide seed treatment containing
|
||
pyraclostrobin , fluxapyroxad , triticonazole, and
|
||
metalaxyl .
|
||
• DO NOT use treated seed for food, feed or oil
|
||
purposes.
|
||
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires the
|
||
following statements on containers containing seed
|
||
treated with pyraclostrobin , fluxapyroxad ,
|
||
triticonazole, and metalaxyl :
|
||
• Store treated seed away from food and feedstuffs.
|
||
• DO NOT allow children, pets or livestock to have
|
||
access to treated seed.
|
||
• When opening this bag or loading/pouring the treated
|
||
seed/seed-pieces, wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants,
|
||
shoes, socks, and chemical-resistant gloves made of
|
||
any waterproof material.
|
||
• Treated seeds exposed on the soil surface may be
|
||
hazardous to wildlife. Cover or collect treated seeds
|
||
spilled during loading and planting, such as in row
|
||
ends and field corners.
|
||
• Plant treated seed into the soil to the recommended
|
||
minimum depth or greater to minimize exposure.
|
||
• DO NOT plant treated seed by broadcasting to the soil
|
||
surface. Ensure that all planted seeds are thoroughly
|
||
incorporated by the planter during planting; additional
|
||
incorporation may be required to thoroughly cover
|
||
exposed seeds.
|
||
• Dispose of all excess treated seed by burying seed
|
||
away from bodies of water.
|
||
• DO NOT contaminate bodies of water when disposing
|
||
of planting equipment wash water.
|
||
• Dispose of seed packaging or containers in accor-
|
||
dance with local requirements.
|

|
||
SEED CONTAINER LABEL REQUIREMENTS
|
||
(continued)
|
||
• Surface Water Advisory: This product may impact
|
||
surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is
|
||
especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with
|
||
shallow groundwater. This product is classified as hav-
|
||
ing high potential for reaching surface water via runoff
|
||
for several months or more after application. A level,
|
||
well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas
|
||
to which this product is applied and surface water fea-
|
||
tures including ponds, streams, and springs will
|
||
reduce the potential loading of pyraclostrobin from
|
||
runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will
|
||
be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or
|
||
irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours. Sound
|
||
erosion control practices will reduce this product’s
|
||
contribution to surface water contamination.
|
||
• Groundwater Advisory: Pyraclostrobin ,
|
||
metalaxyl and fluxapyroxad 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 per-
|
||
meable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
|
||
• In the event of crop failure or harvest of a crop grown
|
||
from this seed, the field may be replanted immediately
|
||
with barley, oats, rye, triticale and wheat or any other
|
||
crop for which tolerances for pyraclostrobin ,
|
||
fluxapyroxad , triticonazole, and metalaxyl exist.
|
||
For all other crops, the minimum plant back interval is
|
||
12 months from the date this seed was planted. A
|
||
cover crop without these tolerances may be planted
|
||
for purposes of erosion control or soil improvement;
|
||
however, the crop may not be grazed or harvested for
|
||
food or feed.
