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.”
