What is the first step of a jar test for pesticide compatibility?

Shake the jar vigorously and let stand for 15 minutes.
Add products in the same proportions, order, and temperature as the tank mix.
Wear the proper PPE as required on the label.
Test the mix on the plant under similar application conditions.

The correct answer is: Wear the proper PPE as required on the label.

The first step of a jar test for pesticide compatibility is to wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) as stated on the label. This ensures the safety of the person conducting the test and reduces the risk of exposure to potentially harmful substances. Shaking the jar or testing the mix on a plant would not be the first step because the safety of the person conducting the test is of utmost importance. Adding products in the same proportions, order, and temperature as the tank mix would also not be the first step because it is important to first take the necessary safety precautions before conducting the test.
