Apple, Pears, and other pome fruits. Citrus, Avocados, Kiwi, strawberry, Raspberries, and Blueberries | 0.5-2 lbs/ac | Two consecutive applications are recommended. Apply with a water volume that allows maximum application coverage. The use of an adjuvant that enhances application coverage is recommended. Do not apply at severity levels exceeding 10% of the disease, or alternatively, dose in mixture with a systemic fungicide. |
| Pineapples | 0.5-2 lbs/ac | Apply at a rate - kg/month/Ha. Applications should be repeated on a monthly basis during the growing phase. Minimal recommended program is 3 applications, as follows: 1) 2KG at Post Forcing. 2) 3KG 30 days after1st application. 3) 3 KG 39 days after 2nd application. |
| Banana and Plantains | 0.5-2 lbs/ac | For new plantings, start applications at the formation of the 2nd-3rd leaf, and repeat applications every 7 to 14 days. For established plants, apply once per month via drench. |
