DIRECTIONS FOR USE

IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be carefully read in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Results from trials have shown CELEST EXTRA to be well tolerated over a wide range of sowing dates and conditions. However under adverse environmental or soil conditions, the germination capacity of seed may be reduced and therefore seed rates should be increased in accordance with good agricultural practice.

CELEST EXTRA is effective against benzimidazole resistant and sensitive forms of Microdochium nivale.

DISEASES CONTROLLED

Winter Wheat
CELEST EXTRA controls Microdochium nivale, Fusarium culmorum and Septoria nodorum resulting in reductions of Seedling Blight, Stem-Base Browning, Snow Mould and Septoria Seedling Blight and controls seed-borne and soil-borne Common Bunt (Tilletia caries).

Winter Oats
CELEST EXTRA controls Microdochium nivale and Fusarium culmorum resulting in reductions of Seedling Blight and Stem-Base Browning. CELEST EXTRA controls Pyrenophora Leaf Spot (Pyrenophora avenae).

Winter Rye
CELEST EXTRA controls Stripe Smut (Urocystis occulta).
