SOIL AND GROUNDWATER, EARTHWORMS AND SOIL MICRO-ORGANISMS
SOIL AND GROUNDWATER
Fludioxonil is strongly bound to the soil and is not considered to be mobile. Flutriafol is very persistent in soils and although moderately mobile, the risk of groundwater contamination is considered to be low. Use of BERET MULTI according to the label instructions presents a low risk to groundwater.
EARTHWORMS
No risk management is necessary. BERET MULTI is of low toxicity to earthworms.
SOIL MICRO-ORGANISMS
No risk management is necessary. BERET MULTI does not have any significant effects on soil microbial activity.
NON-TARGET PLANTS
BERET MULTI is applied as a seed treatment, so the impact on non-target plants is expected to be minimal.
ALWAYS READ THE LABEL: USE PESTICIDES SAFELY
Care must be taken to minimise the risk of surface water contamination from farmyard and field sources.
