Posterity Turf Fungicide

Tips For Use

For preventative Spring Dead Spot control:

•  Apply prior to symptom development in mid-Summer to Autumn and use the higher rate when historical disease pressure was high.
• Ensure application is irrigated with approximately 6 mm of water directly after application.

To combat Dollar Spot:

•  Start the season strong with an early application of Posterity when conditions are favourable for disease outbreak or as an early curative application at first signs of disease.
• Favourable conditions include temperatures between 15°C and 30°C, continuous high humidity, cool nights and intense dews.

For Winter Fusarium/Microdochium Patch control, use Posterity as a rotation partner.

Restraints:

• Do not apply with aircraft.
• Do not apply if heavy rains or storms that are likely to cause runoff are forecast within 3 days.
• Do not irrigate to the point of runoff for at least 3 days after application.
• Do not apply more than two consecutive applications of either posterity or another group 7 fungicide.
• Apply at least 1 application of an alternative fungicide group before reapplying posterity.
• Do not apply more than 2L/ha of posterity per year.

Application

• Ground Application only
• Apply to established turf using well maintained and accurately calibrated spray equipment.
• Apply evenly in a sufficient water volume, to ensure thorough coverage and uniform disease control.
• Apply after mowing or allow the treated area to dry before mowing.

Foliar and Crown Disease (Dollar Spot, Microdochium Patch):

• Apply in a minimum of 350 – 800 L of water/ha using a medium to coarse droplet (e.g. Syngenta air induction XC nozzle 025 or 04) and allow the treated area to dry prior to irrigating.
• In higher cut turf (≥15 mm) a spray shielding effect can occur, impacting negatively on spray penetration and even coverage at low application volumes.

Root Disease (Spring Dead Spot):

• Apply in approximately 1000 L of water/ha using a coarse to extremely coarse droplet (e.g. Syngenta air induction XC nozzle 08).
• Irrigate with 6-10mm of water directly after application to wash POSTERITY into the upper root zone.

Compatibility:

• Posterity is compatible with a range of commonly used fungicides, insecticides, herbicides and fertilizers.

Precautions:

• Do not graze treated areas or feed turf clippings from treated areas to animals including poultry.
• Do not allow entry in treated areas until the spray has dried.

Storage:

• Store in the closed original container in a cool, well-ventilated area.
• Do not store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight.

Safety Directions:

• Harmful if inhaled.
• Do not inhale spray mist.
• May irritate the eyes.
• Avoid contact with the eyes.
• Wash hands after use.

First Aid:

• If poisoning occurs contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone Australia 131 126.
