Two powerful ingredients feature in Throttle, Headland's new curative and preventative fungicide.
This effective new product combines active ingredients, each with different modes of action, to provide more efficient control of Fusarium Patch (Microdochium nivale) in managed amenity turf. The liquid formulation does not affect the natural balance of soil bacteria and can be tank mixed with Headland's contact fungicide Surpass, to aid rapid control of established infection.
Throttle contains tebuconazole and prochloraz as an emulsifiable concentrate. "These active ingredients have both curative and eradicant properties," explains Mark De Ath, Headland's Operations Director "the resulting formulation is so efficient that the product performs effectively at a low application rate of 1.7 litres per hectare."
The handy 0.85 litre container cost-effectively treats 5000 m2. Available in packs of four cans to an outer, Headland is offering either a free outdoor jacket or a complimentary copy of "The Compendium of Turfgrass Disease" for every outer ordered between now and the end of May.
Throttle is suitable for use on all established turf areas such as golf courses, bowls greens, sports pitches, parks and both residential and commercial lawns. Application is recommended either at the onset of disease or in the early stages of development.
