Newly-registered Twinline(TM) fungicide from BASF Canada Inc. (BASF) is bringing superior leaf disease control to cereals in Canada.+ Registered on wheat, barley and oats, TWINLINE fungicide provides dual modes of action to control leaf diseases with the added power of AgCelence(TM).
TWINLINE controls a broad range of leaf diseases in cereals, including tan spot, septoria leaf spot, leaf rust, stripe rust, spot blotch, net blotch, scald, crown rust and powdery mildew.
"TWINLINE is truly a unique fungicide for today's cereal grower," says Mike Bakker, Brand Manager of Fungicides at BASF. "I believe growers are looking for a new level of leaf disease control for cereals, and TWINLINE delivers. Plus it provides the proven benefits of AgCelence, which is a feature unique to BASF fungicides."+
As a product that contains pyraclostrobin (the active ingredient in HEADLINE®), TWINLINE provides AgCelence benefits which often include greener leaves, stronger stems for better harvestability and higher yield potential compared to untreated acres.
Over the past two years BASF evaluated the leaf disease control of TWINLINE in large-scale Federal Research Authorization trials across Western Canada. Results were very positive with excellent disease control leading to an average yield response of 2-4 bushels / acre.+
“It is BASF’s goal to bring new, innovative products to the Canadian cereal market and TWINLINE is a result of that focus,” says Bakker.
