The one solution to tackle turf diseases all year round, Instrata activity can:
Stop disease infection fast • Stop disease developing • Stop disease spread

Application advice
Instrata may be applied by both boom and walkover sprayers using a medium to fine spray pattern, to achieve good coverage and spray retention on the leaf. Apply Instrata at an application rate of 9 litres per hectare, using a water volume of 500–1000 l/ha.
For best results apply Instrata as a preventative application when conditions indicate a high risk of disease infection. Alternatively, spray at the first signs of disease presence.
Instrata can be used at all times of the year, with a minimum 14 day interval between applications. Use a maximum of three applications per year, as part of an Integrated Turf Management programme.

Disease	Application rate	Turf areas
Microdochium Patch, Anthracnose, Dollar Spot, Brown Patch	9 l/ha	All golf course greens, tees and fairways + bowling greens

Long-lasting performance
Instrata has been proven to give effective and persistent control of Microdochium Patch, Anthracnose and other turf diseases. The result in independent UK trials has been consistently better turf quality up to six weeks after application.

Instrata contains fludioxonil – the exciting new contact active ingredient from Syngenta. The first new contact fungicide for turf for over 30 years, fludioxonil sets a new standard in long-lasting efficacy for turf disease control.

The triple action of Instrata, including two multi-site contact active ingredients, will significantly reduce the risk of fungicide resistance developing and will prove an important element of any Integrated Turf Management (ITM) programme.

Application Advice

Tank mixing	See Art of Application: www.wales tank mixing sequence When tank mixing other products with INSTRATA, follow the proper sequence of adding products to the spray tank. Wettable powders or water dispersible granules should be added to the water in the tank first, followed by flowable products such as INSTRATA, and emulsifiable concentrates added last. Provide sufficient mechanical or bypass agitation during mixing and application. If INSTRATA is to be tank mixed with other products, add the products in the following sequence (as applicable): adjuvant / acidifier, wettable powder, suspension concen-trate, emulsifiable concentrate. Prepared spray mixture must not be left in the spray tank for any length of time, e.g. over-night.
Tank mix preparation	Make sure the sprayer is set to give an even application at the correct volume and an even deposit. With concentrate sprays, pre-mix the required amount of INSTRATA in a clean container and add to the spray tank as it is being filled.
Mixing and spraying	Fill the spray tank with water to the required level while maintaining agitation to ensure thorough mixing of the spray mixture before spraying commences. Maintain agitation while spraying. Shake the INSTRATA container thoroughly immediately before use. Add the required amount of product directly to the spray tank and mix well. INSTRATA is a suspo-emulsion (SE) with minimal odour. INSTRATA mixes completely with water and may be tank mixed with many commonly used fungicides and liquid fertili-sers. It has Weather Stik Technology that ensures excellent residual on leaf, stem and crown surface and a high degree of rainfastness.
Water volume	500-1000 litres water/ ha for spot treatments use 90ml per 10l water per 100 sq metres
Pressure	Typical spray pressure is 2-4 bars.
Rainfastness	1 hour
Frost sensitivity	PROTECT FROM FROST. SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE
Tank mix lifespan	Use immediately
Tank mix stability	Stable Do not combine INSTRATA in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers, unless prior use has shown the combination physically compatible, effective and non-injurious under your conditions of use. Do not combine INSTRATA with horticultural oil, and products containing xylene as phytotoxicity may result from the combination when applied to some species on this label.
