Dithane 945 300g Fungicide

The multi-site protectant fungicide Dithane 945 continues to play a useful role in the second half of the blight programme as it has full label recommendations for the control of both early and late blight and it adds in a strong anti-resistance component into the mix but at a cost-effective price.

Late blight has certainly become more aggressive, with new strains developing. Early blight (Alternaria) too is increasing in potatoes and the risk of resistance has become more relevant with the heavy blight programmes that have been necessary to apply this year. Potato growers have had a tough year, having to contend with very high late blight levels as well as high Alternaria levels. For this reason alone growers need to maintain good levels of mancozeb in their programme. It is thought that Alternaria has become much more of a problem in the UK as a direct result of less mancozeb being used in the programme.
