                           PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
                    HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS 
CAUTION. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Wear protective eyewear and waterproof gloves. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. 

                     PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) 
Applicators and other handlers must wear: 
 Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
 Waterproof gloves
 Shoes plus socks 

Wear a minimum of a NIOSH-approved particulate filtering facepiece respirator with any R or P filter; OR a NIOSH-approved elastomeric particulate respirator with any R or P filter; OR a NIOSH-approved powered air- purifying respirator with an HE filter. (Repeated exposures to high concentrations of microbial proteins can cause allergic sensitization.)   

Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no such instructions are available, wash with detergent and hot water. Keep and store PPE separately from other laundry. Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product's concentrate. Do not reuse them. When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6), the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS. IMPORTANT: When reduced PPE is worn because a closed system is being used, handlers must be provided all PPE specified above for "applicators and other handlers" and have such PPE immediately available for use in an emergency, such as a spill or equipment break-down.

USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Users should wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.  Remove PPE immediately after handling this product.  Wash the outside of gloves before removing.

                             ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
For terrestrial uses. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate.  

                              DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

Read entire label. Use strictly in accordance with precautionary statements and directions, and with applicable state and Federal regulations.  
                                                                               
                                       
                         AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR
part 170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted - entry interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.

Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 4 hours.

Exception: If the product is soil injected or soil incorporated, the Worker Protection Standard, under
certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything
that has been treated. PPE required for early entry to treated areas (that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil or water) is protective eyewear, coveralls, waterproof gloves, shoes, and socks.


                       NON-AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are not within the scope of the Worker
Protection Standard for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is
Used to produce agricultural plants or farms, forests, nurseries or greenhouses.

Keep unprotected persons out of treated areas until sprays have dried or dusts have settled.

                              GENERAL INFORMATION
KM1110 WDG is a water dispersible granule (WDG) containing the yeast, Metschnikowia fructicola, which prevents post-harvest decay in fruit. The product is intended for preventive treatment and must, therefore, be applied before disease symptoms appear. The product is intended for agricultural and greenhouse uses.

Preparation of the spray suspension:
 Fill tank (1/2) full with desired amount of water, as directed in Table 1 below. Start agitation to provide moderate circulation before adding KM1110 WDG. 
 Add the directed amount of KM1110 WDG to the tank and the remaining volume of water and continue circulation. 
 Maintain circulation while loading and spraying. 
 Do not mix more KM1110 WDG than can be used within 24 hours. 

Pre-Harvest Application Instructions: 
 Spray when the humidity levels are highest such as in the early morning or evening.
 Ensure all plant parts are uniformly covered with spray solution to the point of first runoff.
 Do not allow the spray solution to go above 95ºF (higher temperatures might reduce the quality of the spray solution).

Do not spray when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for use.  The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas).

Tank Mix Combinations: 
Mixing the preparation in the spray tank with the following pesticides does not affect the vitality and activity of KM1110 WDG: Sulfur preparations, Kresoxym methyl, Polyoxin-AL, Neem Oil, Propamocarb, Mancozeb, Metiram, Difenoconazole, Cyprodinyl+Fludioxonil, Dimethomorph, Mefenoxam, Chlorothalonil, Maneb, Fluazinam, Potassium phosphite, and Copper hydroxide. 

Do not combine KM1110 WDG in the spray tank with other pesticides, surfactants, adjuvants, or fertilizers if there has been no previous experience or use of the combination to show it is physically compatible, effective, or non-injurious under your use conditions.

To ensure compatibility of tank-mix combinations, they must be evaluated prior to use. To determine the physical compatibility of this product with other products, use a jar test. Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to one quart of water with agitation. Add dry formulations first, then flowables and KM1110 WDG second, then emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let this mixture stand for 5 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can readily be remixed, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same procedure for adding required ingredients to the spray tank. Observe the most restrictive of the labeling limitations and precautions of all products used in mixtures.

Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
