Dear Mrs. Patsy Laird:
|
||
The Agency, in accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
|
||
(FIFRA), as amended, has completed reviewing all the information submitted with your
|
||

|
||
connection with the Sedaxane Interim Decision, and has concluded that your submission
|
||
is acceptable. The label referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under
|
||
FIFRA, as amended, is acceptable.
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then
|
||
please be aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide,
|
||
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is
|
||
false or misleading, the product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute
|
||
under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements EPA may
|
||
consider false or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced on
|
||
your product’s label, claims made on the website may not substantially differ from those
|
||
claims approved through the registration process. Therefore, should the Agency find or if it
|
||
is brought to our attention that a website contains false or misleading statements or
|
||
claims substantially differing from the EPA approved registration, the website will be
|
||
referred to the EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
A20903A is a seed treatment product containing the active ingredients: Fludioxonil and
|
||
Sedaxane fungicides and Thiamethoxam insecticide. A20903A protects against damage
|
||
from listed early-season insects and seed-borne and seedling diseases of cereals.
|
||
|
||
Fludioxonil fungicide is active against Fusarium and Rhizoctonia species.
|
||
|
||
Sedaxane fungicide is active against seed decay, seedling blight and damping-off
|
||
caused by Rhizoctonia species and listed loose smut diseases on cereals (Ustilago
|
||
nuda and Ustilago tritici).
|
||
|
||
Thiamethoxam is a systemic seed treatment insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid
|
||
class of chemistry. Thiamethoxam protects against listed chewing and sucking insects
|
||
through contact and ingestion.
|
||
|
||
|
||
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
|
||
THIAMETHOXAM GROUP 4A INSECTICIDE
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, A20903A contains a Group 4A/thiamethoxam insecticide.
|
||
Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to A20903A and other
|
||
Group 4A insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if
|
||
this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate
|
||
resistance-management strategies should be followed.
|
||
|
||
Thiamethoxam is a systemic insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid class of
|
||
chemistry which includes nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists.
|
||
|
||
To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps:
|
||
|
||
x Rotate the use of A20903A or other Group 4A insecticides within a growing
|
||
season, or among growing seasons, with different groups that control the same
|
||
pests.
|
||
|
||
A20903A
|
||
Page 7
|
||
x Use tank mixtures with insecticides from a different group that are equally
|
||
effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same
|
||
mixture repeatedly for the same pest population. Consider any known cross-
|
||
resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of a
|
||
mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations provided by the
|
||
Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC):
|
||
o Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly
|
||
effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually
|
||
registered for use against the target species.
|
||
o Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action
|
||
classification are not recommended for insect resistance management.
|
||
o When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues
|
||
between the individual components for the targeted pest(s).
|
||
o Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one
|
||
or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management
|
||
benefits.
|
||
o The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are
|
||
greatest if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal
|
||
activity. Mixtures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual
|
||
insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit
|
||
only for the period where both insecticides are active.
|
||
x Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide use that includes
|
||
scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record
|
||
keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control
|
||
practices.
|
||
x Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of
|
||
survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university
|
||
specialist or certified pest control advisor.
|
||
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any
|
||
additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for
|
||
the specific site and pest problems in your area.
|
||
|
||

||
SEDAXANE GROUP 7 FUNGICIDE
|
||
FLUDIOXONIL GROUP 12 FUNGICIDE
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, please note that A20903A contains both a Group
|
||
7/sedaxane and Group 12/fludioxonil fungicide. Any fungal population may contain
|
||
individuals naturally resistant to A20903A and other Group 7 or Group 12 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.
|
||
|
||
Sedaxane is a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) and belongs to the
|
||
carboxamide class of chemistry which disrupts cellular respiration and energy
|
||
generation. Fludioxonil belongs to the phenylpyrrole class of chemistry which interferes
|
||
with osmotic signal transduction.
|
||
|
||
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
|
||
x Rotate the use of A20903A or other Group 7 or Group 12 fungicides within a growing
|
||
season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens.
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide/insecticide 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.
|
||
x Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time
|
||
fungicide/insecticide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not
|
||
sufficient to manage resistance.
|
||
x Monitor treated fungal/insect populations for resistance development.
|
||
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional
|
||
pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crop
|
||
and pathogens.
|
||
x For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-866-
|
||
Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or
|
||
university extension specialist to report resistance.

MIXING PROCEDURES
|
||
|
||
Important: Always re-circulate A20903A thoroughly before using.
|
||
|
||
Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions for the seed treatment equipment
|
||
being used.
|
||
|
||
Apply A20903A as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry seed treatment
|
||
equipment which provides uniform seed coverage. Uneven or incomplete seed
|
||
coverage may not give the desired level of insect or disease control. Thoroughly mix the
|
||
specified amount of A20903A into the required amount of water or liquid inoculant for
|
||
the slurry treater and dilution rate to be used.
|
||
|
||
Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted.
|
||
A20903A is compatible with several liquid inoculant products. Consult the maker of the
|
||
inoculant product and a Syngenta representative for directions before applying
|
||
A20903A with inoculants.
|
||
|
||
A20903A
|
||
Page 10
|
||
The total application volume must be sufficient to provide desired level of coverage.
|
||
Dilution is typically done with water or liquid inoculants.
|
||
|
||
Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out
|
||
of the solution. Clean out any unused product from the treater after treating or maintain
|
||
constant agitation if the leftover slurry will be maintained overnight.
|
||
|
||
Required Dye Statement: Seed treated with this product must be visually identifiable
|
||
from untreated seed by the use of an approved colorant or dye to prevent accidental
|
||
use of treated seed as food for humans or feed for animals. Refer to 21 CFR, Part 2.25.
|
||
Any colorant or dye added to treated seed must be cleared for use in accordance with
|
||
40 CFR, Part 153.155(c).
|
||
Allow seed to dry before bagging.

SEED CONTAINER LABEL REQUIREMENTS
|
||
|
||
Use of On-Farm Treated Seed (when treated seed are not for sale or distribution)
|
||
Treated seed sold or distributed for a use not permitted by the following labeling does
|
||
not qualify as an exempted treated article under 40 CFR 152.25(a) and is therefore sale
|
||
or distribution of an unregistered pesticide, pursuant to FIFRA section 12.
|
||
|
||
x Store treated seed away from food and feedstuffs.
|
||
x DO NOT allow children, pets, or livestock to have access to treated seed.
|
||
x Treated seed are for planting purposes only. DO NOT use for food, feed, or oil
|
||
purposes. DO NOT use treated seed for fuel or ethanol production purposes.
|
||
x Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants, sh oes, socks, and chemical-resistant gloves
|
||
when handling treated seed.
|
||
x 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.
|
||
x Treated seed exposed on the soil surface may be hazardous to wildlife. Cover or
|
||
collect treated seed spilled during loading and planting (such as in row ends).
|
||
x Treated seed must be planted into the soil at a depth greater than 1 inch.
|
||
x Manage excess treated seed (e.g., spilled, unused, or expired treated seed) by one
|
||
or more of the following methods:
|
||
o Collect excess treated seed for reuse for planting.
|
||
o Bury excess treated seed (only allowed if totaling 1 pound or less) at least 30 feet
|
||
away from bodies of water at a depth of 6 inches or double the planting depth,
|
||
whichever is greater.
|
||
o Dispose of excess treated seed by placing them in a landfill in accordance with
|
||
applicable laws in your state.
|
||
o Return excess treated seed to the supplier if permitted by the state.
|
||
x DO NOT contaminate bodies of water when disposing of equipment wash water.
|
||
x Advisory Dust-Reducing Technique: The use of seed flow lubricants or polymer
|
||
coatings may help decrease the amount of dust released during planting. Follow the
|
||
recommendations of the planter manufacturer regarding the use of seed flow
|
||
lubricants.

Seed Treatment in Commercial Facilities or Seed Treatment on Farm (when
|
||
treated seed are to be sold or distributed) – Seed Bag Labeling Requirements
|
||
The Federal Seed Act requires that containers of treated seed shall be labeled with the
|
||
following statements:
|
||
|
||
x This seed has been treated with Fludioxonil and Sedaxane fungicides and
|
||
Thiamethoxam insecticide.
|
||
x Do not use for food, feed, or oil purposes.
|
||
|
||
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires that bags containing treated seed
|
||
shall be labeled with the following statements. Any seed treated with A20903A that is
|
||
sold or distributed without these statements or that is sold or distributed for a use not
|
||
permitted by the following labeling does not qualify as an exempted treated article under
|
||
40 CFR 152.25(a) and is therefore sale or distribution of an unregistered pesticide,
|
||
pursuant to FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(A).
|
||
|
||
This seed has been treated with A20903A (EPA Reg No. 100-1587) containing
|
||
fludioxonil, sedaxane, and thiamethoxam. Any seed treated with A20903A that is sold or
|
||
distributed for a use not permitted by the following labeling does not qualify as an
|
||
exempted treated article under 40 CFR 152.25(a) and is therefore sale or distribution of
|
||
an unregistered pesticide, pursuant to FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(A).
|
||
|
||
x The contents of this bag are for planting purposes only. DO NOT use for food, feed,
|
||
or oil purposes. DO NOT use for fuel or ethanol production purposes.
|
||
x Groundwater Advisory: Fludioxonil and thiamethoxam have properties and
|
||
characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. These chemicals
|
||
may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly
|
||
where the water table is shallow.
|
||
x Pollinator Precautions: Thiamethoxam is highly toxic to bees, and effects may be
|
||
possible as a result of exposure to translocated residues in blooming crops.
|
||
x Store treated seed away from food and feedstuffs.
|
||
x Do not allow children, pets, or livestock to have access to treated seed.
|
||
x Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants and chemical-resistant gloves when handling
