The label for Malathion 85E has been amended via User Requested Minor Use Label Expansion (URMULE) for bushberries including blueberries and haskaps (Crop Subgroup 13-07B), caneberries including raspberries and blackberries (Crop Subgroup 13-07A), low growing berries including strawberries (Crop Subgroup 13-07G) and sweet and tart cherries.
The table below summarizes the changes to the label:
Crop | Old rate/1000L water | New rate/ha | Old max number of apps | New max number apps |
Caneberry | 975 mL | 1000-2500 mL | 2 | 2 |
Bushberry | 1L | 1000-2500 mL | 3 | 3 |
Strawberry | 1L | 1000-2500 mL | 2 | 2 |
Sweet Cherry Tart Cherry | 610-855 mL | 855-2500 mL | 1 | 2 |
The increased use rate changes the level of control for Malathion 85E from suppression to control. The Restricted Entry Intervals (REI) and Pre-harvest Intervals (PHI) remain the same.
