Switch 62.5 WG 1Kg

Description Switch 62.5WG is a fungicide with combined contact and systemic properties for the control of Botrytis (Grey Mold) in ornamentals.   Switch fungicide is best used as a protectant treatment or in the earliest stages of disease development. It is generally used to target Botrytis, Sclerotinia, Aspergillus, and Penicillium in a wide range of crops.     Switch containing cyprodinil and fludioxonil is best used as a protectant treatment or in the earliest stages of diseases such as Botrytis. It can be used on a wide range of edible crops as well as in ornamental plant production and forestry nursery.     Switch 62.5WG Active Ingredient Switch is a water-dispersible granule formulation containing 37.5% w/w cyprodinil and 25% w/w fludioxonil.       Switch 62.5WG Coverage See Switch product label as application rates vary   Pack size 1kg     Switch 62.5WG KEY POINTS Different active ingredients fludioxonil and cyprodinil give this fungicide different modes of action that offer consistent control of Botrytis Switch lowers laccase levels in wine and grapes and improves wine quality Offers high level control of Glomerella and the bunch rot complex (Aspergillus, Rhizopus, Cladosporium, & Alternaria) on grapes, Monilinia and Stemphylium on fruit, and Sclerotinia and Ascochyta on vegetables Can be used as part of a programme of sprays Rainfast in one hour Other diseases that Switch fungicide controls are listed below.     NOTE: To maintain a high level of protection, and to prevent or limit the development of Botrytis strains less sensitive to the product, applications of SWITCH should not be made consecutively but should be used in alternation with fungicides with different modes of action, with satisfactory efficacy against the pathogen. For use on fresh beans (green, runner, broad), dried beans (dwarf French bean, navy bean [phaseolus], kidney beans, haricot beans, dried broad beans), vining pea and edible podded pea, dried peas (combining peas including marrowfat), carrots, celeriac, protected and outdoor strawberry, protected and outdoor raspberry and blackberry, outdoor crops of blueberry, bilberry, cranberry, redcurrant, blackcurrant, whitecurrant, gooseberry, top fruit (apple, pear, quince, crab apple) and outdoor and protected ornamental plant production and forestry nursery.     DISEASES & CROPS CONTROLLED WITH SWITCH FUNGICIDE Fresh and dried beans: Botrytis (Grey Mould) [Moderate control], Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Fresh and dried peas: Mycosphaerella pinodes, Ascochyta pisi (both giving a useful level of control), Botrytis (grey mould) [Moderate control], Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Carrots: Alternaria leaf Blight (Alternaria dauci) [Moderate control], Sclerotinia sclerotiorum [Moderate control] Celeriac: Sclerotina sclotiorum [Moderate control] Strawberries: Botrytis (Grey Mould), *Black Spot (Colletotrichum acutatum) – *QUALIFIED MINOR USE RECOMMENDATION. The evidence of effectiveness against Black Spot is limited. Protected and outdoor raspberry, blackberry: Botrytis Outdoor crops ribes spp. (redcurrant, blackcurrant, whitecurrant, gooseberry) and other berries (blueberry, bilberry, cranberry): Botrytis* – *QUALIFIED MINOR USE RECOMMENDATION. The evidence of effectiveness against botrytis on these crops is limited. Apples, crab apples, quince and pears: When Switch is applied in a pre-harvest spray programme a reduction in the following orchard and storage rots may be achieved – Botrytis cinerea (Botryotinia fuckeliana), Monilinia spp., Nectria spp., Penicillium spp., Colletotrichum spp., Fusarium spp., Gloeosporium spp., Alternaria spp., Venturia spp. Pears: Stemphylium vesicarium (brown spot) [Moderate control] Ornamental plant production and forestry nursery: Botrytis     Switch 62.5WG Features Combined contact and systemic activity for reliable control of Botrytis. New chemistry – no cross-resistance provides a solution where resistant fungi have developed. High water solubility – no residues on foliage. Broad spectrum activity resulting in a reduced number of applications and reduced cost of disease management. Related
