EPA registration data for Reg. 66222-134 →
Incognito 4.5F is a fungicide containing 4.5 pounds of thiophanate-methyl per gallon. It is used to control various fungal diseases in a wide range of crops, including almonds, apples, beans, cucurbits, garlic, and onions. The product can be applied via various methods such as irrigation systems (drip, sprinkler, or chemigation), in-furrow applications, or broadcast sprays. When using irrigation systems, specific requirements for system components like check valves and backflow prevention must be met to prevent contamination. For certain crops like apples and beans, specific preharvest intervals (PHI) and restricted-entry intervals (REI) apply. Handling requires personal protective equipment (PPE) including long-sleeved shirts, long pants, chemical-resistant gloves, and footwear. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing, and do not breathe vapors or spray mist.
