Turf Disease Fungicide Guide | Syngenta Professional Solutions

The Turf Disease Fungicide Guide is an interactive tool designed by Syngenta to help turf managers navigate the comprehensive range of Syngenta fungicides. The PDF tool can be downloaded below.

The comprehensive grid outlines which product is recommended as the first choice for a particular disease, as well as what the ideal rotation partner would be. It is also an easy reference to see which other products in the range could be useful for the particular disease.

“We approached this by looking at the common turf diseases and which of our products controlled these diseases. We then looked at activity groups of the fungicides as well as the efficacy data for each disease and in so doing, developed the decision tree matrix.”

Banner Maxx

EC Emulsifiable Concentrate

155 g/L Propiconazole

Banner Maxx^® II is a systemic broad-spectrum fungicide that has come to be best known for its efficacy against dollar spot while providing control of 19 additional diseases at low-use rates. It enters through the surface stem or root system and prevents fungal cell growth by inhibiting sterol biosynthesis.The active ingredient of Banner Maxx II is propiconazole. It acts on the fungal pathogen inside the plant by interfering with sterol biosynthesis in fungal cell membranes. Specifically, it impacts hyphal growth by stopping the production of ergosterol, a key component in the fungal membrane. Upon application, Banner Maxx II is quickly taken up by the leaves, stems, and roots providing protection. Banner Maxx II will translocate upward in the xylem and provide long lasting protection for up to 28 days.
