Syngenta Canada launches Miravis® Star fungicide for Sclerotinia control in canola

  • Dual active ingredients – including the only Group 12 in a Sclerotinia fungicide – provide a long-lasting and comprehensive level of disease protection
  • Earlier application window enables growers to spray earlier and cover more acres
  • Commercially available in Western Canada for 2024

Syngenta Canada Inc. announced today the launch of Miravis® Star, a new fungicide that delivers the next level of Sclerotinia protection and application flexibility in canola.

Miravis® Star brings together two proven active ingredients. The first, ADEPIDYN®, is a Group 7 fungicide, that provides highly powerful, long-lasting, systemic protection. The second, Fludioxonil (Group 12) is one of the top-performing active ingredients against Sclerotinia, and offers effective, contact-based activity.

The combination of ADEPIDYN® and Fludioxonil also helps growers reduce their resistance risk.

“We know – above all else – yield performance is the key driver when deciding whether or not to apply a Sclerotinia fungicide,” says Jon Cressman, Product Lead, Fungicides and Insecticides, Syngenta Canada. “Miravis® Star is designed for canola growers who aren’t satisfied with the status quo, want to embrace new solutions, and push their crop’s performance.”

With changing economic conditions, shifting price projections, and updated support levels for ARC and PLC, you will want to give this enrollment careful consideration.
