GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING
RIDOMIL GOLD 480 EC is a member of the phenylamide
group of fungicides. For fungicide resistance management
RIDOMIL GOLD 480 EC is a Group D fungicide.
Some naturally occurring individual fungi resistant to
RIDOMIL GOLD 480 EC and other Group D fungicides may
exist through normal genetic variability in any fungal
population. The resistant individuals can eventually
dominate the fungi population if these fungicides are used
repeatedly. These resistant fungi will not be controlled by
RIDOMIL GOLD 480 EC and other Group D fungicides, thus
resulting in a reduction in efficacy and possible yield loss.
Since the occurrence of resistant fungi is difficult to detect
prior to use, Syngenta Crop Protection Pty Limited accepts
no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of
RIDOMIL GOLD 480 EC to control resistant fungi.
MIXING
Pour the product directly into water in the spray tank and
mix well.
PRECAUTION
RE-ENTRY PERIODS
DO NOT enter treated areas without protective clothing until

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS
AND ENVIRONMENT
DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well
ventilated area out of direct sunlight.

containers to recycler or designated collection point.
If not recycling, break, crush or puncture and bury empty
containers in a local authority landfill. If no landfill is

pit specifically marked and set up
