Spillage: Wear appropriate protective clothing and prevent material from entering<br />

waterways. Absorb spills with inert material and place in waste containers. Wash area<br />

with water and absorb with further inert material. Dispose of waste safely in an approved<br />

landfill.<br />

Transport: Do not carry <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong> on a passenger service vehicle.<br />

Record Keeping: Records of use as described in NZS 8409 Management of<br />

Agrichemicals, must be kept if using 3 litres or more of <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong> within 24 hours.<br />

Mixing and Compatibility: Half fill the spray tank and with the agitator operating add<br />

the required amount of <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong>. Continue to agitate while adding the remainder of<br />

the water, and during spraying. <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong> is compatible with most fungicides and<br />

insecticides.<br />

Resistance Management: Resistance to this insecticide and related synthetic pyrethroid<br />

products could occur from repeated use. To minimise this risk use strictly in accordance<br />

with label instructions.<br />

Diamondback moth. To minimise the development of resistance to synthetic pyrethroids<br />

apply only in the period from mid-January to August. Use insecticides of a different<br />

mode of action outside this period. Maintain good cultural practices.<br />

Diamondback moth populations in some regions have shown a high level of resistance to<br />

other synthetic pyrethroid insecticides. If cross resistance to <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong> is indicated by<br />

poor control, switch to an alternative chemical group to control the pest.<br />

Tomato fruitworm/corn earworm. Only apply synthetic pyrethroid insecticides after 7th<br />

January against second generation larvae. Avoid unnecessary spraying. Maintain good<br />

cultural practices.<br />

Directions for Use:<br />

Ensure thorough spray coverage of all plant foliage.<br />

Withholding Periods: Asparagus 24 hours; beans 7 days; brassicas 7 days; maize 14<br />

days; sweetcorn 7 days; tomatoes 3 days.<br />

Do not graze or feed maize or sweetcorn stubble to animals within 14 days of application.<br />

It is an offence for users of this product to cause residues exceeding the relevant<br />

MRL in the New Zealand (Maximum Residue Limits of Agricultural Compounds) Food<br />

COMMENTS<br />

Apply in the evening at first<br />

appearance of weevils and then<br />

weekly if weevils and spear damage<br />

recur. Under low insect pressure<br />

apply every 3 weeks until early<br />

December to reduce subsequent<br />

infestations.<br />

Apply at first sign of pests and repeat<br />

2-3 weeks later if necessary. See<br />

Resistance Management statement.<br />

As a resistance management<br />

strategy, do not apply <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong><br />

before mid January. Use in a<br />

programme with other insecticides<br />

having a different mode of action. As<br />

plants grow increase spray volume<br />

to ensure complete coverage of<br />

the foliage. The addition of Contact<br />

Low Foam wetter is recommended.<br />

If aphids are a problem apply a<br />

specific aphicide. See the Resistance<br />

Management statement.<br />

Apply as soon as pests occur.<br />

Repeat 10-14 days later or as<br />

indicated by pest activity. Use a<br />

spray pressure of at least 280kPa to<br />

ensure good penetration. Increase<br />

water rate as crop matures to ensure<br />

thorough coverage of all foliage. See<br />

Resistance Management statement.<br />

Apply one application after 7th<br />

January where second generation<br />

fruitworm larvae are present.<br />

Increase water rate as crop matures<br />

to ensure thorough coverage of all<br />

foliage. See Resistance Management<br />

statement.<br />

Apply immediately damage occurs,<br />

preferably in the evening as a<br />

directed spray to thoroughly cover<br />

young plants and the surrounding<br />

soil. <strong>Sumi</strong>-<strong>Alpha</strong> will not control<br />
