POTATO FUNGICIDES (Labeled & Rates/A) as of June 2009
NOTE: ONLY Underlined Products are Registered in NYS for Commercial Use; Group Numbers are from the Fungicide Resistance Action Committee and EPA; (Fungicide Resistance* concerns are given in RED italics); (Important comments are in RED); Because of EB* resistance to Strobilurins in NYS, consider protectants, Endura, or the mixture of Quadris Opti, or Revus Top, orTanos tank-mixed with protectant, or Gavel for EB control, do not rely upon strobilurins alone; Major fungicide groups have been color coded to aid in finding and categorizing by MOA (mode of action): Phosphorous acids = Blue; Strobilurins or Group 11 = violet; Chlorothalonils = gray; Coppers = green; and Sulfurs = gold. Fungicides/Nematicides: for use as seed piece, postharvest and tuber blight protection; for in-furrow and soil treatments.
