The balance of power... ...is in your hands

ASCERNITY NEW FUNGICIDE ASCERNITY is the new turf fungicide from Syngenta that delivers powerful new SDHI chemistry together with another trusted active for turf, difenoconzole. Together they deliver reliable dual action preventative and curative control.

ASCERNITY moves from stems, crowns and axils for protection of new growth and doesn’t accumulate at the leaf tip of existing leaves. These balanced movement properties together with outstanding stability in the plant means more complete and sustained protection from disease.

Leaf absorption

OPTIMUM USE PERIOD Used as a strategic part of an integrated Turf Management plan, ASCERNITY can assure a sustainable long-term future for effective turf disease control.

Use ASCERNITY during periods of active turf growth prior to disease infection or at first signs of attack.

NEW CHEMISTRY AND NEW MODE OF ACTION It’s the first opportunity to

utilise the exciting new chemistry

Crown absorption

to achieve better playing surface

quality for today’s more demanding players.

Balanced systemic movement to new growth, replenishing over time

TWO ACTIVES AND TWO DIFFERENT MODES OF ACTION TWO actives and TWO different modes of action targets disease at different stages » greater flexibility in application timing and control.

The advanced ASCERNITY formulation delivers excellent product retention when applied and has rapid initial uptake into the leaf.

Excellent droplet retention

ASCERNITY provides balanced systemic movement. Not all systemics are the same. Some systemic’s don’t move sufficiently

ASCERNITY can be safely applied at any stage of turf growth,

to protect new growth, while others move too readily leaving the

from the two leaf stage onwards. We have conducted over 80

leaf base exposed and a concentration of active at the leaf tip.

Active concentrated at the leaf tip is then removed with mowing, diluting the leaf protection available.

trials in 9 countries on a range of cultivars of all key turf species.

Strong and rapid binding to wax layer

These trials have shown no phytoxicity effect when ASCERNITY is used after the two leaf stage.
