DISEASE CONTROL<br />
PUNCH C is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide for the control of a wide range of<br />
diseases.. Its two active ingred<strong>ie</strong>nts have different modes of action and the mixture will help<br />
prevent the development and build-up of some strains of resistant fungi. At the higher rate<br />
of application PUNCH C is active against eyespot, both MBC-sensitive and MBC-resistant<br />
strains, and gives a suppression of sharp eyespot. At the normal rate of application PUNCH<br />
C controls Septoria tritici, Septoria nodorum, Rhynchosporium, net blotch, powdery mildew,<br />
and yellow and brown rusts. The fungicide can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d in spring or early summer and up<br />
until the watery-ripe stage of grain development. Disease control is generally more effective<br />
if PUNCH C is appl<strong>ie</strong>d at an early stage of disease development.<br />
Disease control in cereals can be ach<strong>ie</strong>ved by a routine programme of preventative spray<br />
treatments or by regular monitoring of crops and spraying only when diseases are building<br />
up. PUNCH C, with broad-spectrum eradicant and protectant activity, is suitable for both of<br />
these disease control systems.<br />
Best control of eyespot is obtained if PUNCH C is appl<strong>ie</strong>d in the spring between the growth<br />
stages leaf sheaths erect and second node detectable. Control of leaf and ear diseases is<br />
most effective if PUNCH C is appl<strong>ie</strong>d in the spring or early summer when the diseases are at<br />
a low level and before the diseases spread to new growth. Application can be repeated after<br />
3 - 4 weeks if necessary. Programmed applications made soon after flag-leaf emergence<br />
and again at ear emergence are particularly effective in controlling leaf and ear diseases of<br />
wheat.<br />

CROP SAFETY<br />
PUNCH C can be used on all var<strong>ie</strong>t<strong>ie</strong>s of wheat, barley and oats.<br />
TIMING<br />
Winter Wheat<br />
PUNCH C at 625 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d up to three times up to the anthesis complete / end<br />
of flowering (GS 69) stage of crop growth. PUNCH C at 800 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d once only<br />
per crop and only up to second node detectable stage of crop growth.<br />
Spring Wheat<br />
PUNCH C at 625 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d up to two times up to the anthesis complete / end of<br />
flowering (GS 69) stage of crop growth. PUNCH C at 800 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d once only<br />
per crop and only up to second node detectable stage of crop growth<br />
Barley<br />
PUNCH C at 625 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d twice at any time up to ear emergence complete (GS<br />
59). PUNCH C at 800 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d once only per crop and only up to second node<br />
detectable stage of crop growth.<br />
Oats<br />
PUNCH C at 625 ml/ha can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d twice at any time up to the ear emergence complete<br />
(GS 59) stage of crop growth.<br />
WEATHER<br />
PUNCH C should not be appl<strong>ie</strong>d during frosty weather. Rain occurring within two hours of<br />
application may reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.<br />
DOSE AND APPLICATION<br />
• For control of mildew*, Septoria, Rhynchosporium, net blotch, yellow rust and brown rust,<br />
apply PUNCH C at 625 ml/ha (250 ml/acre) in 200 litres of water/ha (20 gal/acre).<br />
• For a useful level of control of eyespot and suppression of sharp eyespot in addition to<br />
the above diseases, apply a single spray of PUNCH C at 800 ml/ha (325 ml/acre) in 200<br />
litres of water/ha (20 gal/acre). This rate must not be used more than once on any crop.<br />
PUNCH C should be appl<strong>ie</strong>d using spraying equipment to give good, even coverage of the<br />
crop.<br />
* To prevent the selection and build-up of resistant strains of mildew, PUNCH C can be<br />
tank-mixed with a fungicide of the morpholine group appl<strong>ie</strong>d according to the<br />
manufacturer's recommendations.<br />
BEET AND MANGOLDS<br />
DISEASE CONTROL AND CROP SAFETY<br />
PUNCH C can be used to control foliar diseases of sugar beet, fodder beet and mangolds<br />
including rust and Ramularia.<br />
TIMING AND WEATHER<br />
2
Apply PUNCH C at the onset of disease, usually in early August. Rain occurring within two<br />
hours of application may reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.<br />
DOSE AND APPLICATION<br />
Apply PUNCH C at 625 ml/ha (250 ml/acre) in 200 litres of water/ha (20 gal/acre). One pack<br />
treats 2 hectares (5 acres).<br />
DO NOT APPLY PUNCH C TO BEET LESS THAN 7 WEEKS BEFORE HARVEST.<br />
OILSEED RAPE<br />
DISEASE CONTROL AND CROP SAFETY<br />
PUNCH C can be used on all var<strong>ie</strong>t<strong>ie</strong>s of oilseed rape. PUNCH C controls light leaf spot and<br />
phoma leaf spot and reduces canker.<br />
TIMING AND DOSE<br />
For control of light leaf spot and phoma leaf spot and reduction of canker, apply a single<br />
spray of 800 ml/ha when the diseases first occur in the crop, or a sequential spray of 400<br />
ml/ha in the autumn and repeat with 400 ml/ha at the stem extension stage of the crop.<br />
PUNCH ® C can be appl<strong>ie</strong>d in the autumn or spring up to before first flower opened crop<br />
growth stage (GS 6.0).<br />
VOLUME AND APPLICATION<br />
Apply PUNCH ® C in 200 litres of water/ha using spraying equipment to give good even<br />
coverage of the crop.<br />
MIXING<br />
PUNCH C MUST BE SHAKEN WELL BEFORE USE.<br />
PUNCH C mixes easily with water and should be added directly to the spray tank during<br />
filling. Wash out container and add washings to the spray tank. Continue agitation during<br />
filling and when spraying.<br />
COMPATIBILITY<br />
For use on wheat and barley, PUNCH C can be tank-mixed with a wide range of herbicides,<br />
fungicides and growth regulators, if appl<strong>ie</strong>d within the manufacturer’s recommendations. For<br />
compatibility information, consult your suppl<strong>ie</strong>r.<br />
