Product Features

WHEAT

TARGET DISEASE Use Rate fl. oz. product/A COMMENTS

Early Season Suppression of:

Powdery Mildew (Blumeria spp., Erysiphe spp.)

Leaf Blight (Septoria tritici)

Glume Blotch (Stagonospora nordorum)

Tan Spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis)

2-4 Apply Propi-Star® EC in the spring. Follow up with a second application up to Feeks growth stage 10.5 for season long control. Applications may be made not closer than a 14-day interval.

Control of Leaf Diseases:

Rust (Puccinia spp.)

Powdery Mildew (Blumeria spp., Erysiphe spp.)

Leaf Blight (Septoria tritici)

Glume Blotch (Stagonospora nordorum)

Tan Spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis)

Helminthosporium Leaf Blight (Drechslera tritici-repentis)

Spot Blotch (Bipolaris sorokiniana)

Net Blotch (Pyrenophora teres)

4 Protecting the flag leaf is important for maximizing the potential yield. Highest yields are normally obtained when Propi-Star® EC is applied when the flag leaf is 50% to fully emerged. Applications may be made no closer than a 14-day interval. The use of oil-based adjuvant may improve the spray coverage and canopy penetration. Propi-Star® EC can be applied through full head emergence (Feekes growth stage 10.5). Do not apply after this stage to avoid possible illegal residues.
Foot Rot (Pseudocercosporella spp.) 4 Apply Propi-Star® EC plus half rates of other EPA registered fungicides such as Topsin® M. Apply at tillering, but before elongation has occurred.
Fusarium Head Blight Suppression 4 Apply Propi-Star® EC at approximately 50% flowering. Addition of a penetrating type of adjuvant may increase Fusarium head blight suppression.
APPLICATION Propi-Star® EC is most effective when applied and allowed to dry before a rainfall. For best results, use sufficient water to provide thorough coverage. Propi-Star® EC may be applied by ground, air or chemigation.
RESTRICTIONS

Do not apply within 30 days of harvest for forage or hay.

Do not apply more than 8 fl. oz./A/season of Propi-Star® EC.

Do not apply more than 4 fl. oz./A/season of Propi-Star® EC if forage or hay will be harvested.

Do not apply more than 0.22 lb a.i. propiconazole-containing product/A/season.

Do not apply after Feekes 10.5 in wheat.

 CORN (FIELD, SEED, POPCORN) SWEET CORN

TARGET DISEASE Use Rate fl. oz. product/A COMMENTS

Northern Corn Leaf Blight (Setosphaeria turcica)

Northern Corn Leaf Spot (Cochiliobolus carbonum)

Southern Corn Leaf Blight (Cochliobolus heterostrophus Also known as Helminthosporium

Leaf Blights (H. maydis, H. turcicum, H. carbonum)

2-4 For leaf blights apply Propi-Star® EC when disease first appears. Continue on a 7-to 14-day schedule. Use the low rate when disease pressure is low. Under heavy disease pressure or if conditions are favorable for disease, apply the high rate.
Rusts (Puccinia spp.) Gray Leaf Spot (Cercospora zeae-maydis) Eye Spot (Aureobasidium zeae) 4 Apply Propi-Star® EC when disease first appears. If conditions favorable for disease persist, continue to apply on a 7-to 14-day schedule. For best disease control, early applications (at initial disease onset) perform better.
APPLICATION Propi-Star® EC is most effective when applied and allowed to dry before a rainfall. For best results, use sufficient water to provide thorough coverage. Propi-Star® EC may be applied by ground, air or chemigation.
