Syngenta Canada introduces Orondis Advanced potato fungicide for late blight and white mould

  • Proven, consistent, and convenient late blight control with the additional benefit of white mould protection in potatoes. 
  • A convenient foliar premix with two modes of action (Group 29 + Group 49). 
  • A flexible rotation partner for Group 40 fungicides, including Revus®, to manage late blight resistance.  

Syngenta Canada Inc. is proud to introduce Orondis® Advanced foliar fungicide for potatoes.  

Orondis Advanced is the only foliar premix with two modes of action for proven, consistent and convenient control of late blight with the additional benefit of white mould protection. It provides Canadian potato growers with an alternative from a Group 40 fungicide, making Orondis Advanced a strong rotation partner for their late blight fungicide program. 

“With Orondis Advanced, we’re offering potato growers a new level of confidence in their disease management. It’s the only foliar premix of its kind in Canada, offering powerful protection against two damaging potato diseases,” says Janette Stewart, national horticulture marketing lead with Syngenta Canada. “This is innovation growers can trust to protect their yield, and bottom line, while reducing the risk of late blight resistance.” 

Formulated with two modes of action – fluazinam (Group 29) and oxathiapiprolin (Group 49) – Orondis Advanced provides powerful control of late blight, one of the most economically damaging diseases affecting potato crops in Canada. This new fungicide also brings proven white mould control from the activity of fluazinam and simplifies late blight resistance management decisions by giving growers greater flexibility to rotate among fungicide groups, including the Group 40 fungicide Revus®

With an all-in-one jug format, tank-mix compatibility and two modes of action, Orondis Advanced delivers proven and lasting protection to control late blight and protect against white mould. Orondis Advanced will be available for the 2026 growing season and sold in a case containing 2 x 9.6 L, treating 60 acres at the common rate.

Residue Management

Video: Residue Management

Residue Management conservation practice manages the amount, orientation, and distribution of crop and other plant residue on the soil surface year-round while limiting soil-disturbing activities used to grow and harvest crops in systems where the field surface is tilled prior to planting. This video explores how Ryan McKenzie implemented this conservation practice on his farm in Samson, Alabama.

Practice benefits:

• Increases organic matter

• Improves air quality

• Decreases energy costs

• Reduces erosion

• Improves soil health

The Conservation at Work video series was created to increase producer awareness of common conservation practices and was filmed at various locations throughout the country. Because conservation plans are specific to the unique resource needs on each farm and also soil type, weather conditions, etc., these videos were designed to serve as a general guide to the benefits of soil and water conservation and landowners should contact their local USDA office for individual consultation.
