PESTICIDE STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
STORAGE
Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal.
PESTICIDE DISPOSAL
Wastes resulting from the use of this product may be disposed of on site or at an approved waste disposal facility.
CONTAINER DISPOSAL
Completely empty bag into application equipment. Then dispose of empty outer bag in a sanitary landfill or by incineration, or if allowed
by State and local authorities, by burning. If burned, stay out of smoke.
If this product is packaged in a returnable-refillable container, after use, return the container to the point of purchase or designated
locations. This container must only be refilled with Chipco 26019 N/G fungicide. DO NOT REUSE, THE CONTAINER FOR ANY
OTHER PURPOSE. Prior to refilling, inspect thoroughly for damage such as cracks, punctures, abrasions and damaged or worn out
threads on closure devices. Do not refill or transport damaged or leaking containers. Check for leaks after refilling and before
transportation. For information on cleanup of spills, contact Bayer Environmental Science at 1-800-334-7577. If the container is not
being refilled, return it to the point of purchase.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS AND INFORMATION
DIRECTIONS FOR USE THROUGH SPRINKLER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
Do not use through irrigation systems in California.
Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot and solid set. 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 CHIPCO
®
26019 N/G Fungicide 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 CHIPCO
®
26019 N/G Fungicide, and
then the remaining volume of water. (Suspension concentrations using the appropriate dosage per acre recommended on this label of
CHIPCO
®
26019 N/G Fungicide per 1 to 4 gallons of water are recommended) Then set sprinkler to deliver 0.1 to 0.3 inch of water per
acre. Start sprinkler and uniformly inject the suspension of CHIPCO
®
26019 N/G Fungicide into the irrigation water line so as to deliver
the desired rate per acre. The suspension of CHIPCO
®
26019 N/G Fungicide 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:
When treatment with CHIPCO
®
26019 N/G Fungicide has been completed, further field irrigation over the treated area should
be avoided for 24 to 48 hours 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.
Greater accuracy in calibration and distribution will be achieved by injecting a larger volume of a more dilute solution per unit time.
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 nonuniform 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
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.
