Zing! Fungicide receives federal registration

Gowan USA has announced federal registration for Zing! Fungicide for use in potato, tomato, cucurbits and onions. State registrations will soon follow.

Zing! Fungicide is a new premix fungicide combining two active ingredients into a liquid SC formulation. The combination of zoxamide and chlorothalonil works to enhance the performance beyond each individual product. Zing! Fungicide provides excellent control of early and late blight, downy mildew, anthracnose and alternaria diseases, according to Gowan.

Zoxamide and chlorothalonil have been used for disease control in the industry for decades, with no documented resistance in the field. Zing! Fungicide offers improved activity on chlorothalonil’s as well as zoxamide’s spectrum of disease control. Used as a preventive fungicide, Zing! offers two FRAC codes, M5 and 22, to deliver multiple modes of action for enhanced control, to defend against disease resistance and add longevity to your treatment program, according to Gowan.
