Approval for a new fungicide molecule is anticipated later this year, adding a much-needed further option for septoria control. CPM reports from a briefing by its manufacturer, Corteva Agriscience, and bring you the technical low-down on ‘Inatreq active’. Inatreq has no current cross-resistance to currently approved chemistry. By Lucy de la Pasture Approval for another new fungicide is expected hot on the heels of the recent approval for Revysol. The ‘Inatreq active’ molecule (fenpicoxamid) comes from Corteva Agriscience, and with agronomists reporting a noticeable slip in SDHI field performance this season, it couldn’t be a better time for the arrival of two new fungicides to take the pressure off existing chemistry. “We anticipate approval in time for use in spring 2020,” says Stuart Jackson, field technical manager for Corteva. “Inatreq belongs to the picolinamide group of chemistry and this will be the first registered for its use in cereal crops. It offers a different target site to other active ingredients that also inhibit mitochondrial respiration.” Leaf bioassays showing redistribution of fenpicoxamid from mid-leaf points of application, compared with untreated and epoxiconazole.Source: Owen, W.
