Fungicide

Scala

Scala^® is a systemic fungicide for control of botrytis in grapes and strawberries, scab in apples and pears, early blight in potatoes and storage diseases in apples (ON and QC only). It provides translaminar and vapour activity to protect both sides of the leaf and expand the protected area. Scala is the only fungicide for grapes proven to significantly reduce laccase in wine, an enzyme produced by botrytis that negatively affects wine quality. It is known as the cool weather fungicide in apples and pears due to its unique ability to perform well in cool spring conditions. Used as a pre-harvest spray, Scala also protects apples in storage from destructive diseases such as botrytis and penicillium. In potatoes, Scala is the only Group 9 fungicide registered for protection against early blight. Scala has a unique mode of action – different than strobilurins – and is registered as a tank mix with Bravo^® ZN fungicide to provide two modes of action for stronger resistance management. A new registration for aerial application in potatoes means Scala can now be applied by air as well as ground equipment to control early blight.

table-content-cropName	table-content-pests-fungicide	table-content-stage	table-content-rate
Apples Pears	Scab	Apply early in the season at 7-12 day intervals, from green tip to petal drop. For scab control, do not apply post-bloom.	0.75-1.0 L/ha
Apples (Ontario & Quebec Only)	Storage Disease Of Botrytis Storage Disease Of Penicillium (Suppression)	Apply 2 weeks before harvest.	1.5-2.0 L/ha
Grapes	Botrytis Bunch Rot	Begin applications at early bloom if needed then follow with applications from berry touch to bunch closure. An application can also be made from fruit ripening through to harvest during frequent wet conditions (conducive to infection) or when symptoms of infection are evident. Thorough coverage of bunches is essential. Applications must be made a minimum of 7 days apart.	2.0 L/ha
Strawberries	Botrytis Grey Mould	Make first application at the white bud stage (prebloom) and repeat applications as required at 7-10 day intervals.	2.0 L/ha
Potatoes	Early Blight	Apply when plants are 15-20 cm high or when environmental conditions are conducive to disease development. Repeat applications at 7-14 day intervals or as necessary to maintain disease control. If severe disease conditions exist, use the 7 day interval. Minimum spray interval is 7 days. Ensure that the area to be treated is covered uniformly.	750 mL/ha plus Bravo^® ZN fungicide according to label directions
