Bryan from Des Moines, Iowa writes
I have 6 acres of newly planted strawberries. When they say 2qts/acre, does that mean I use a boom sprayer (spray the whole field) or is that rate for just spraying the rows of plants. Also, how much water with the 2 qts of Sevin per acre?
Per page 8 of the product label you would need to mix 3.0 fl. oz. of product per gallon of water and spray upper and lower leaf surfaces and between fruit clusters and on small limbs and trunks
to the point of runoff where pest appear. Repeat applications as necessary up to a total of five times per year for small fruits, but not more often than once every seven days.
We cannot find anything on the product label that mentions the 2 qt/acre application so we are unsure where that information came from.
