STATEMENT OF PRACTICAL TREATMENT

Acephate is an organophosphate, cholinesterase inhibiter.

IF SWALLOWED: Drink 1 to 2 glasses of water (or milk) and induce vomiting by touching the back of the throat with finger. If possible, contact a physician, Poison Control Center, or emergency center before inducing vomiting. Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Take person and product container to the nearest emergency treatment center. IN CASE OF EYE CONTACT: Wash eyes with fresh water for 15 minutes. If irritation continues, see a doctor. FOR SKIN CONTACT: Wash skin with plenty of soap and wa~er. IF INHALED: Remove person from exposure area. Note to Physicians: Acephate is a cholinesterase inhibitor. If si~s of cholinesterase inhibition appear, atropine is antidotal. 2-PAM may also be used in conjunction with atropine but should not be used alone.

Apply 0.5 to 1.0 lb. active ACEPHATE in 3 to 5 gals. of water per acre as an in-furrow spray. NOTE: For the Blacklands of Texas use only the 1.0 lb. active ACEPHATE rate (21.3 oz. formulated product per acre). ACEPHATE 75SP can be mixed with fungicides that are sprayed in-furrow for disease control.

Flat-fan nozzles used for in-furrow application should be set so that the fanned spray pattern is aligned with the row to ensure good spray deposition in the seed furrow. Cone type nozzles may not provide a spray pattern that ensures maximum spray deposition in the seed furrow, and should be avoided. Spray systems that employ metal or plastic tubing for delivery of spray solution into the seed furrow should have tubing securely fastened to the furrow opener and should be checked frequently to ensure that the tubing is properly positioned to deposit spray solution into the seed furrow.

Do not apply more than 6.0 lbs. a.i. (8 lbs. product) per acre per crop cycle.

SPRINKLER IRRIGATION APPLICATION TO CRANBERRIES

This product may only be applied through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, travelers, big gun, solid set, or hand move. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.

Crop injury, lar.k of effectiveness;·or illegal pesticide residues in the crop may result from non-uniform distribution of treated water.

If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts.

Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the label-prescribed safety devices for public water supplies are in place.

A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.

The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow.

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.

The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch whiCh will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.

System must use a meteri~g pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.

Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.

Solid Set Systems: Apply specified dosage for the entire length of

15

the irrigation period or for a 30 to 60 minute period at the end of a regular irrigation set or as a 30 to 60 minute injection as a separate application not associated with a regular irrigation. Allow time for all lines to flush the pesticide through all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. To ensure the lines are flushed and free of remaining pesticide, a dye indicator may be injected into the line to mark the end of the application period. See NOTE.

Center Pivot Systems: Inject the specified dosage per acre continuously for one complete revolution of the system. See NOTE.

NOTE: Constant agitation must be maintained in the chemical supply tank during the entire period of insecticide application. Inject the product with a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right angle turn to ensure adequate mixing.

Application of more than label recommended quantities of irrigation water per acre may result in decreased product performance by removing the chemical from the zone of effectiveness.
