Fungicide Tank Mixes

Are you legally allowed to mix chemicals ?

Yes you are. Tank mixing when referring to a distributor or contractor backed tank mix recommendation is perfectly legal provided all the label requirements are followed for the tank-mix constituents and partner products.

If a manufacturer or approval holder wishes to claim enhanced activity or biological compatibility from a specific tank-mix, this must be demonstrated to CRD to be allowed to be part of the label claims. This is not required when referring to a distributor or contractor backed tank-mix that does not feature on the product label.

Will it cost more ?

Not necessarily, the components of a tank-mix, when used correctly as instructed on the recommendation usually work out to be a similar cost, but it does depend on dose and other
factors.

Will it increase chemical resistance by using lower than label rates ?

Research on other pathogens and other crops where resistance has occurred indicates that it is the frequency of applications of products with a particular mode of action that have contributed to resistance build-up, rather than dose being the contributing factor.

What happens if it doesn't work ?

Our mixes, provided the recommendations are followed, have the full backing and support of either Agrovista Amenity, or the manufacturers concerned.

What trials have you carried out ?

Agrovista Amenity and its parent company, Agrovista UK, have carried out trials, as well as CRD submitted work, and used industry leading research organisations such as STRI and product manufacturers for compatibility work in the quest to find new and innovative solutions for common problems experienced by our customers..

Is it easy to tank-mix chemicals ?

Yes, you should follow the specific mixing instructions for each product that are printed on the label

Do manufacturers back tank-mixing ?

Yes they do, but they do tend to back mixes that they will have a commercial interest in, although this is not always the case. Agrovista Amenity is able to take the best chemistry from each manufacturer and combine the best of these elements, and with our unique technical knowledge, give you the best solutions for your problems.

How long will the application last ?

As with any fungicide application, the duration of control is governed by a number of factors, including application accuracy, disease pressure, weather conditions before or after application, cutting regime, pathogen to be treated etc..Remember that in very high pressure situations, if the diseaseis already established in the turf at application, it may be that the disease gets visibly worse after treatment, as it will be too far through its life cycle. The pathogen will then express itself before the chemical treatment can get a level of control.
