Syngenta Daconil Action Fungicide

Description:
Syngenta Daconil Action is a broad-spectrum fungicide designed for the control of turf diseases: sod farms; turf on golf courses, professional and collegiate athletic fields; and lawns around commercial and industrial buildings. It combines the trusted disease control of Chlorothalonil with the unique plant defense activation properties of Acibenzolar-S-methyl. This dual-action formulation not only provides contact protection against fungal pathogens but also enhances the plant’s natural defense response, offering improved resilience against diseases and environmental stress.

Key Benefits:

• Broad-spectrum control against major turf diseases

• Contact fungicide with multi-site activity, reducing the risk of resistance

• Activates plant defense mechanisms for enhanced disease resistance and stress tolerance

• Rainfast and provides long-lasting protection

• Ideal for use in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs

Diseases Controlled:

Daconil Action effectively controls a variety of fungal diseases, including:

• Turf Diseases:Dollar Spot (Clarireedia spp.)
  Brown Patch (Rhizoctonia solani)
  Gray Leaf Spot (Pyricularia grisea)
  Anthracnose (Colletotrichum cereale)
  Leaf Spot (Bipolaris, Drechslera spp.)
  Algae (Cyanobacteria spp.)
  Red Thread (Laetisaria fuciformis)
  Microdochium Patch (Microdochium nivale)

Application Rates:

Turfgrass:

• Apply 1.0 to 5.4 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft

• Apply at 7- to 30 -day intervals, depending on disease pressure

Use Restrictions:

• Do not apply to home lawns or residential turf

• Do not mow or water treated turf within 24 hours of application

• Do not apply during periods of heavy rain to prevent runoff

• Observe a 12-hour re-entry interval (REI) after application

Safety & Environmental Precautions:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Wear long-sleeved shirts, gloves, and protective eyewear during handling and application

• Environmental Considerations: Avoid drift and runoff into water sources, as Chlorothalonil is highly toxic to aquatic organisms

• Human Safety: Avoid inhalation or skin contact; wash hands and exposed areas thoroughly after handling

By incorporating Syngenta Daconil Action into your disease management program, you can ensure healthier, more resilient turf with long-lasting protection against a broad range of fungal pathogens.

Syngenta Heritage Action Fungicide

Description:
Heritage Action is a broad-spectrum, systemic fungicide developed by Syngenta for the prevention and control of turf diseases on golf courses, sod farms, institutional, comerical and industrial buildings, and collegiate and professional athletic fields. It combines Azoxystrobin (a QoI fungicide) with Acibenzolar-S-methyl (a plant defense activator) to provide both direct disease control and enhanced plant health through systemic acquired resistance (SAR). This dual mode of action ensures long-lasting protection, helping turf and ornamentals withstand environmental stress while preventing key fungal pathogens.

Benefits:

• Broad-Spectrum Disease Control – Effective against a wide range of turf diseases.

• Systemic Movement – Protects the entire plant, including new growth, through translaminar and xylem movement.

• Plant Health Benefits – Enhances stress tolerance, drought resistance, and root strength.

• Extended Residual Protection – Provides longer-lasting disease prevention compared to contact fungicides.

• Resistance Management – Dual modes of action help reduce the risk of resistance development.

Diseases Controlled:

Heritage Action is effective against various fungal diseases, including:

• Turfgrass Diseases:Anthracnose (Colletotrichum cereale)
  Brown Patch (Rhizoctonia solani)
  Dollar Spot (Sclerotinia homoeocarpa)
  Pythium Blight (Pythium spp.)
  Gray Leaf Spot (Pyricularia grisea)
  Leaf Spot (Bipolaris, Drechslera spp.)
  Powdery Mildew (Erysiphe spp.)
  Summer Patch (Magnaporthiopsis poae)
  Take-All Patch (Gaeumannomyces graminis)
  Snow Mold (Typhula spp., Microdochium nivale)
  

Application Rates:

• Turfgrass: 0.2 to 0.4 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft., depending on disease pressure and turf species

• Apply at 14- to 28-day intervals based on disease severity and environmental conditions

Use Restrictions:

⚠ Avoid applications near water bodies to prevent runoff.
⚠ Do not use on residential fruit trees or edible crops.
⚠ Avoid consecutive applications of QoI fungicides to prevent resistance. Rotate with different FRAC groups.
⚠ Keep away from pollinators and beneficial insects by avoiding application during bloom periods.

Safety & Handling:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Long-sleeved shirt, long pants, gloves, and protective eyewear.

• Re-Entry Interval (REI): 4 hours (do not enter treated areas until the spray has dried).

• Environmental Caution: Highly toxic to aquatic life; avoid drift and runoff into waterways.

• Storage & Disposal: Store in a cool, dry place away from food and water sources. Dispose of containers per local regulations.

Heritage Action provides reliable disease control and enhanced plant health benefits, making it an essential tool for turf and ornamental management.
