GENERAL: NUSTAR 100 EW is a systemic fungicide with curative and preventive properties. NUSTAR 100 EW has curative properties up to 5 days (120 hours) against apple scab. NUSTAR 100 EW is effective at very low rates against scab and powdery mildew of apples. NUSTAR 100 EW IS ALWAYS RECOMMENDED IN A TANK MIX WITH DITHANE M-45 (REG. NO. L1613 Act No. 36 of 1947) AGAINST APPLE SCAB AND IT IS ALSO SUGGESTED THAT NUSTAR 100 EW BE USED IN A PROGRAMME WITH NON-RELATED FUNGICIDES AGAINST POWDERY MILDEW. THIS IS DONE TO DELAY THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESISTANCE AGAINST SYSTEMIC FUNGICIDES. The efficacy of NUSTAR 100 EW is not affected by rain or irrigation within 3 hours of application due to its rapid absorption by plant tissue. COMPATIBILITY: NUSTAR 100 EW is compatible with other chemicals normally used in the same spray programme on apples and pears. DIRECTION FOR USE: USE ONLY AS DIRECTED. MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Apples and Pears Mix the required quantity of DITHANE M-45 with a small quantity of water to form a thin paste. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with water and add the DITHANE M-45 paste through a 50 mesh sieve to the water in the spray tank whilst stirring. Add the required amount of NUSTAR 100 EW directly into the spray tank and fill with water whilst stirring constantly.
